INTERIM RESULTS ANNOUNCEMENT

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2019

HIGHLIGHTS OF 2019 INTERIM RESULTS

  • Benefiting from the substantial growth of the precious metals business including silver and Gold Products, the segment profit of the Manufacturing segment involving the production of silver, gold and other precious metals and the metal by-products derived therefrom increased to approximately RMB55.8 million, representing an increase of approximately 47.7% as compared to 1H2018
  • Due to the economic downturn and the interim effects of proactive strategic adjustment, the New Jewellery Retail segment operated under our subsidiary CSMall Group contributed a segment profit of approximately RMB58.1 million, representing a decrease of approximately 38.8% as compared to 1H2018
  • As a result of the significant increase in the proportion of precious metals business including silver and Gold Products and the decline in cost of raw materials, as well as the optimisation of product mix of the New Jewellery Retail segment operated under CSMall Group, which resulted in a higher proportion of the sales of high-margin jewellery products including silver, the Group's overall gross profit margin for the six months ended 30 June 2019 increased to approximately 17.5% (1H2018: 15.2%)
