This announcement is made by Dragon Crown Group Holdings Limited (the "Company" and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") pursuant to Rule 13.09(2) of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Listing Rules") and Inside Information Provisions (as defined under the Listing Rules) under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the "SFO").

The board of directors (the "Board") of the Company wishes to inform the shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders") and potential investors that, based on a preliminary assessment of the latest available unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group and information currently available to the Board, it is expected that the Group will record a decrease of over 40% in its net profit for the year ended 31 December 2019 as compared with the year ended 31 December 2018. Based on the relevant information currently available to the Board, the Board considers such expected decrease in net profit for the year ended 31 December 2019 is mainly attributable to, among other things, (i) the decrease in revenue in respect of ethylene, methanol and acetic acid; (ii) the absence of one-off gain on disposal of financial asset at fair value through profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2019, as compared with the year ended 31 December 2018; and (iii) the share of losses of joint ventures for the year ended 31 December 2019, as compared with the share of profits of joint ventures for the year ended 31 December 2018.

As at the date of this announcement, the Company is still in the course of preparing its annual results of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2019. The information contained in this announcement is only based on the preliminary assessment by the Board with reference to the latest available unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2019 which have not been audited or reviewed by the auditors of the Company. The annual results of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2019 may be different from what is disclosed in this announcement and are expected to be announced by the Company before the end of March 2020.

Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the shares of the Company.
