Chairman’s Statement HONG KONG TELEVISION NETWORK LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 2016

Dear Shareholders,

Five months from the annual results announcement made in March, HKTVmall has marched into a new stage.

Apart from steady growth in the number of merchants and product availability, we have added a new zone namely “Hot Deals” in addition to the existing “Supermarket”, “Fashion & Beauty” and “Home & Family” zones. Similar to bulk purchases, “Hot Deals” leverages on HKTVmall’s extensive customer base to liaise with merchants, to offer special discounts on various products such as electronics, households and beauty, as well as services such as restaurant deals, beauty and healthcare services. With this new addition, HKTVmall not only provides a wider variety of products, but has also extended to different services, staying abreast with your everyday lives.

While the daily average number of orders increases stably, HKTVmall has moved its logistics centre from Kowloon Bay to Tsing Yi in mid-July, expanding from over 60,000 square feet area to over 140,000 square feet, in order to cope with our business expansion. Though we are recruiting new hands to cope with the expansion of our logistics centre, the increase of manpower does not imply an enhancement of operational efficiency. Therefore, we have signed an agreement with our vendor in Germany, to install a large-scale warehouse robotic system to enhance pick and pack speed and accuracy, so as to cater for surging future demand.

After more than two years’ operation, we understand that our existing customers are satisfied with HKTVmall’s services, with repeated purchase ratio meeting our expectation. Therefore, upon laying solid foundation for operations, the next consideration is to expand our customer base, and to acquire more new customers to increase order number – this also explains why HKTVmall exists here in Hong Kong, to promote online shopping keeping pace with other Asian regions, and to uphold our reputation as “Shopping Paradise”.

We shall achieve our goal in two ways. Firstly, we have launched our promotion campaign along MTR, which is the second large scale campaign after August 2015. The campaign started in mid-August, with promotional theme changes on bi-weekly basis such as “Electronic Products Warehouse Sale”, will last until mid-December, covering more than 9,000 trackside panel spaces. In addition to this, we will open a concept store, to provide customer service and logistics delivery support. The store will also serve as an education centre, leading HKTVmall to new customer segments through community engagements. Depending on market response, we are exploring more innovative ways to promote HKTVmall, making it an inevitable part of Hong Kong people’s lives.

I understand that some shareholders concern my other personal development which may affect the operation and development of HKTVmall. In fact, four of us in the Board are performing different roles in managing the company. Mr. Paul Cheung, Vice Chairman of the Group specialises in developing and maintaining various information systems, as well as the operations of our logistics centre. Our Chief Executive Officer, Ms. To Wai Bing possesses extensive experiences in operations, is now specializing in the acquisition of merchants and the enhancement of product variety. Our Chief Financial Officer, Ms. Alice Wong is managing the Group’s assets prudently, and highly attentive to the operation performance. Therefore, it is indeed not my sole effort but the joint efforts of us to steer the development of HKTVmall. In future, if I have to proceed to other personal developments, I will allocate my time properly to balance the interests of different stakeholders.

Finally, I hope that our shareholders, business partners and the public of Hong Kong can continue to cast their trust to HKTVmall, and to believe that we can make a change to Hong Kong.

BUSINESS REVIEW

HKTVmall remains as our primary focus in 2016 and full effort was continued devoting to our online shopping business. The local economy in retail sector was continued in its downturn in the first half of 2016. According to the Report on Monthly Survey of Retail Sales for June 2016 published by the Census and Statistics Department of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the total value of the retail sales for the first six months in 2016 decreased by 10.5% relative to the same period in 2015, while the total volume decreased by 10.1% relatively. Nevertheless, slight improvement was observed that the second quarter of 2016 was performed slightly better than the first quarter of 2016 by 2.8% in total value and 1.9% in total volume. Although the overall retail participants were under the pressure of low consumer sentiment, during the first six months of 2016, our business performance was still growing steadily. We believe this could be embraced by our direction in delivering “Save money, save efforts and save time” one-stop shopping experience to our customers, and the enhancing value we delivered through shopping at HKTVmall.

As a new year start, we launched a large scale promotional campaign – the “HK$99 Crazy Meat Sets” in January 2016 to introduce the new frozen meat product line. Along selected MTR stations and bus shelters, we put up different advertising panels with 8 different cloze quizzes related to the current affairs in humorous ways to introduce the great value frozen packs offering at HK$99. The main purpose of the panels is to encourage the passers-by to pause in front of the panels and notice our attractive new offerings. This was a successful campaign which not only increased our brand exposure to the mass market but was also an effective marketing tool for new customer acquisition and a drive for repeated purchases.

With the aim to deliver “Save money, save efforts and save time” shopping experience to our customers, we dedicated our effort towards this direction. On “Save money”, in March 2016, on top of providing products from “Supermarket”, “Fashion and Beauty” and “Home and Family” categories at competitive pricing with Mall Dollar rebate, we added a new category – “Hot Deals” offering, and a team of market expertise in Hot Deals was recruited aiming to search the great value offer in town to maximise customers’ purchasing power.

On “Save effort” and “Save time”, in May 2016, we locked up a long term lease for a gross floor area of over 144,000 square feet at Mapletree Logistics Hub Tsing Yi to expand our logistics and warehouse centre. The expansion should co-locate our existing logistics and warehouse space to a single floor which not only increase the capacity for housing a wider product spectrum and larger quantity, it also enhance the efficiency on the pick-pack-deliver order fulfilment logistics flow. We expect this expansion shall enable us to fulfil our customer needs in terms of larger product variety and quicker delivery time, in particular on the daily grocery supplies. The relocation was taken place during June and July 2016.

Furthermore, we continued to invest numerous efforts into (1) customer acquisition and repeated purchases, and (2) customer satisfaction and experience enhancement, below are the major items fully launched during the period under review:

(1) Customer Acquisition and Repeated Purchases

a. Launch of VIP programme with cumulative spending reaches HK$3,000 in a 12-month period for qualification and to benefit from the VIP price and Mall Dollar on selected products, and lower order value at HK$250 for free delivery service;

b. Distribution of a 800-page product catalogue on street and tagged along with order delivery in late March 2016 for a full-range product introduction and as a catalyst to push for the 20-hour daily Flash Deal campaign in April 2016, each hour with 10 hot deals to increase the exposure of all long-tail products and to encourage for regular repeated purchases;

c. Launch of weekly regular promotions, such as “$1/$5/$10 or $10/$20/$30 Flashsale Tuesday” and “Weekly Top 100” on supermarket products to increase frequency of orderings; and

d. Holding of more than 60 roadshows by our on-street promotors “Jetsoer” in different shopping malls for a close interaction with potential customers to push for HKTVmall app download and to initiate first purchase aided by selected great value product offerings and give-away of HK$50 free cash coupon.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis Supermarket Fashion & Beauty Home & Family

For the six months ended 30 June 2016

(2) Customer Satisfaction and Experience Enhancement

a. Expanded logistics car fleet to have 60 plus owned vehicles including cold trucks to ensure fresh and hygienic delivery of frozen and chilled products;

b. A simple quality and performance evaluation on delivery and packing service is sent to customers immediate after each order delivery for quality control and assessment, which was further enhanced to be sent through an in-App push notification to enhance the completion rate; and

c. Regular general customer survey was conducted to obtain personal advices and suggestions from our customers in terms of service quality, new product or services offering, HKTVmall web portal or App functionality, performance or design, etc..

With the above efforts, we continued to enhance our marketplace fundamentals and sustained progress was noticed. At the date of this report:

1. We continue to expand the product spectrum by carrying more than 123,000 products, a significant increase from more than 107,000 products since the last reporting date in March 2016.

2. Our HKTVmall members increased to approximately 1.63 million registered email IDs, an expanding base to capture business growth over time.

Apart from operating online shopping business under HKTVmall, during the period under review, the Company continues its business including the offer of free television programming through its Over-The-Top (OTT) platform, international and local content distribution, provision of artiste management services and independent content production, while the TV programme production remains suspended.

The construction of the multimedia production and distribution centre (“Multimedia Centre”) in Tseung Kwan O Industrial Estate is proceeding. The programme for completion of the building works has been slightly adjusted from October to November 2016 as a result of inclement weather in rainy season and complications in connection with the works and related clearance procedures.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the period under review, the Company mainly operates its Multimedia Business including the E-commerce online shopping and delivery services, OTT platform, and corporate functions.

The Group incurred a loss of HK$125.8 million for the six months ended 30 June 2016 (“1H2016”), an improvement of HK$109.2 million from the loss of HK$235.0 million for the corresponding period of 2015 (“1H2015”). During 1H2016, due to the suspension of TV programme production, only minimal related income and costs recorded during the period. On online shopping business, the market presence of HKTVmall was increasing during the period which has caused decent growth in our direct merchandise sales and income from concessionaire sales. In this regard, further investment were made to prepare for short to medium term business growth which mainly included the expansion on logistics and warehouse functions, and increase in advertising and promotional expenses for brand awareness, customer acquisitions and repeated purchases.

On turnover, the Group has HK$67.9 million for 1H2016 (1H2015: HK$60.3 million) which composed of HK$57.6 million from direct merchandise sales (1H2015: HK$5.7 million), HK$9.8 million from income from concessionaire sales and other service income (1H2015: HK$5.4 million), HK$0.4 million from licensing of programme rights and net advertising income (1H2015: HK$48.9 million) and HK$0.3 million from artiste management services for 1H2015 but nil in 1H2016.

The increase in direct merchandise sales and income from concessionaire sales and other service income by HK$56.3 million was due to the full period operation of online shopping platform in 1H2016 while in 1H2015, it was just a very early start-up formally launched in February 2015. And the decrease of HK$48.5 million in licensing of programme rights and net advertising income was due to the suspension of TV programme production during 1H2016.

Programme costs of HK$218.6 million was charged to profit or loss in 1H2015 mainly included programme costs of self-produced programmes and purchased content charged to the profit or loss over the showing period and talent and other production costs for content production for third party customers. There were nil programme costs charged to profit or loss in 1H2016 as all fresh programme contents were fully broadcasted or impaired during year 2015.

Cost of inventories amounted to HK$55.9 million for 1H2016 (1H2015: HK$5.0 million) represented the full period cost of inventories delivered to customers for the fulfilment of the Group’s direct merchandise sales, while for 1H2015, the direct merchandise sales was only a tiny operation.

For 1H2016, valuation losses on investment properties of HK$4.0 million, a decrease of HK$14.0 million relative to a valuation gain of HK$10.0 million in 1H2015, based on the valuation carried out by an independent firm of surveyors.

Other operating expenses increased by HK$40.8 million to HK$180.2 million for 1H2016 relative to the HK$139.4 million incurred for 1H2015. The increase mainly due to the below major items:

1. Talent costs increased by HK$27.5 million. During 1H2016, to cope with the business growth, the workforce on the logistics and warehouse functions and direct sales increased significantly;

2. Advertising and marketing expenses increased by HK$8.0 million to reach HK$15.8 million mainly for the promotional campaign of “HK$99 Crazy Meat Set” launched in January 2016 and the 800-page product catalogues printing and distribution in late March 2016; and

3. Logistics and warehouse operating costs increased which were caused by the expansion of logistics and warehouse centre, increase of owned car fleet and scalable sub-contracted labour resources to cater for business growth on direct merchandise sales.

Other income, net, of HK$46.9 million was earned in 1H2016 (1H2015: HK$59.6 million), mainly composed of investment income generated from available-for-sale securities, bank interest income, and rental income from investment properties, net of net exchange loss. The decrease of HK$12.7 million was mainly due to decrease in bank interest income and investment return caused by the realisation of a portion of the investment portfolio to support the capital expenditures and operating activities of the Group.

Finance costs, net decreased by HK$1.6 million mainly due to the decrease in bank loans during 1H2016.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As at 30 June 2016, the Group had total cash position of HK$79.4 million represented cash at bank and in hand (31 December 2015: HK$174.8 million) and outstanding borrowings of HK$33.9 million (31 December 2015: HK$71.8 million) drawn for investment yield enhancement purpose. The decrease in total cash position was mainly due to the purchases of property, plant and equipment of HK$131.4 million, net bank loan repayment of HK$38.1 million, and the resources utilised for operating activities of HK$93.1 million, partially net off by net realisation from investment portfolio of HK$127.3 million and net investment income received of HK$39.9 million.

On investment in available-for-sale securities, the Group has invested, at fair value, of HK$1,330.2 million as at 30 June 2016 (as at 31 December 2015: HK$1,445.8 million). The decrease in investment in available-for-sale securities was mainly due to the use of certain matured available-for-sale debt securities to fund the capital expenditure and operating activities of the Group. As at 30 June 2016, there was a deficit of HK$20.8 million being recorded in Fair Value Reserve (31 December 2015: a revaluation deficit of HK$33.6 million). Among the available-for-sale securities, about 97.2% (as at 31 December 2015: 97.3%) are invested in fixed income products or other debt securities which substantially will be repaid at par upon maturity.

Consistent with the overall treasury objectives and policy, the Group undertakes treasury management activities with respect to its surplus cash assets. The criteria for selection of investments include the relative risk profile involved, the liquidity of an investment, the after tax equivalent yield of an investment and, not speculative in nature. In line with its liquidity objectives, the Group invests mostly in liquid instruments, products or equities, such as investment grade products, constituent stocks of defined world indices or state owned or controlled companies. Investment in fixed income products are structured in different maturity profile to cater for ongoing business development and expansion need. Moreover, as and when additional cash is expected to be required to fund the business, the investments can be realised as appropriate.

As at 30 June 2016, the Group has utilised HK$33.9 million (31 December 2015: HK$71.8 million) uncommitted banking facilities mainly for investment purpose, leaving HK$1,153.3 million (31 December 2015: HK$1,114.1 million) uncommitted banking facilities available for future utilisation.

Our total cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash at bank and in hand and term deposits within three months of maturity, if any. There is no pledged bank deposit as at 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015.

The debt maturity profiles of the Group as of 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015 were as follows:

		30 June 2016HK$’000				31 December 2015HK$’000
Repayable within one year			33,850				71,793

As at 30 June 2016, our outstanding borrowings bore fixed interest rate and denominated in United States dollars. After considering the cash and cash equivalents and term deposits, if any, held by the Group, the Group was in a net cash position as of 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015, no gearing ratio is presented.

During 1H2016, the Group invested HK$259.6 million on capital expenditure versus HK$10.7 million for 1H2015. The capital expenditure was mainly incurred for the construction of the Multimedia Centre and for the expansion of our logistic fleet. For the upcoming capital expenditure requirements for the business, we will remain cautious and it is expected to be funded by internal resources within the Group and available banking facilities. Overall, the Group’s financial position remains sound for continuous business expansion.

Hot Deals TV Programs HONG KONG TELEVISION NETWORK LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 2016

Charge on Group Assets

As of 30 June 2016, the Group’s bank loans of HK$33.9 million (31 December 2015: HK$71.8 million) were secured by an equivalent amount of available-for-sale securities held by various banks.

Exchange Rates

All the Group’s monetary assets and liabilities are primarily denominated in Hong Kong dollars, United States dollars or Renminbi. Given the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar to the United States dollar has remained close to the current pegged rate of HKD7.80 = USD1.00 since 1983, management does not expect significant foreign exchange gains or losses between the two currencies.

The Group is also exposed to a certain amount of exchange rate risk due to the fluctuations between the Hong Kong dollars and the Renminbi arising from its investments mainly in Renminbi fixed income products or term deposits. In order to limit this exchange rate risk, the Group closely monitors Renminbi exposure to an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates where necessary.

Contingent Liabilities

As of 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015, the Group had no material contingent liabilities or off-balance-sheet obligations.

PROSPECTS

As mentioned in 2015 annual report, we are aware of our prevailing resources were not sufficient to cater for continuous aggressive business growth and to fully meet the customers’ expectation. In this regard, in 2016, apart from continuously widening the product spectrum and switching consumers’ shopping behaviour, we also invest significant resources in improving our output capacity and service quality. During 1H2016, we have expanded our own logistics car fleet size, optimising the logistics route planning, relocating to an over 144,000 square feet central logistics and warehouse centre, and continuously enhancing the backend customer service and logistics system. Nevertheless, we still notice some of our customers had experienced late or delayed delivery which could be due to fully taken-up next day delivery resources, overwhelming responses on promotional offer, quickly deteriorated weather or traffic condition, or our other resources constraint. While we are embraced by the continued growth even under the low consumer sentiment, we fully recognise these issues may sooner or later to put a hurdle on our growth prospect. As a result, in the second half of 2016, we have a key project – the implementation of an automatic picking and conveying system consisting of a conveying system, an automatic picking system, an automatic storage and retrieval system and tote handling systems. We target to fully launch this system in the first half year of 2017. We expect this automated system will be able to increase our picking capacity significantly which shall enable us to re-designate our resources to focusing on packing and inventory management so as to cater for the ongoing business growth and to enable our customers to embrace our value.

On media business, the Company is still in discussions with the Office of the Communications Authority (“OFCA”) about one of our subsidiary’s proposal of adopting Digital Video Broadcasting – Terrestrial 2 as the transmission standard for the provision of mobile television service. The Company is also waiting for the results from the government of the second application of the Free TV licence. We shall further refine our business development plan on Multimedia Business upon the outcome of the above cases.

1 BASIS OF PREPARATION

This unaudited interim financial report of Hong Kong Television Network Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) has been prepared in accordance with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Main Board Listing Rules”); and complies with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim financial reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “IASB”) and Hong Kong Accounting Standard (“HKAS”) 34, Interim financial reporting, issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “HKICPA”). It was authorised for issuance on 24 August 2016.

This unaudited interim financial report has been prepared in accordance with the same accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015, except for the newly adopted accounting policies as set out in note 2.

The preparation of unaudited interim financial report in conformity with IAS 34 and HKAS 34 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses on a year to date basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

This unaudited interim financial report contains condensed consolidated financial statements and selected explanatory notes. The notes include an explanation of events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of the Group since the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereon do not include all of the information required for full set of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) issued by the IASB and Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRSs”) issued by the HKICPA.

The interim financial report is unaudited, but has been reviewed by KPMG in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review

Engagements 2410, Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity, issued by the HKICPA. KPMG’s independent review report to the Board of Directors is included on page 27 of this interim financial report. In addition, this interim financial report has been reviewed by the Company’s Audit Committee.

The financial information relating to the financial year ended 31 December 2015 that is included in the interim financial report as comparative information does not constitute the Company’s statutory annual consolidated financial statements for that financial year but is derived from those financial statements. Further information relating to these statutory financial statements disclosed in accordance with section 436 of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622) is as follows:

The Company has delivered the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 to the Registrar of Companies as required by section 662(3) of, and Part 3 of Schedule 6 to, the Companies Ordinance.

The Company’s auditor has reported on those financial statements.

2 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The IASB has issued the following amendments to IFRSs that are first effective for the current accounting period of the Group. The equivalent amendments to HKFRSs, which term collectively includes all applicable individual HKFRSs, HKASs and Interpretations, consequently issued by the HKICPA as a result of these developments have the same effective date as those issued by the IASB and are in all material aspects identical to the pronouncements issued by the IASB.

• Annual Improvements to IFRS/HKFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle

• Amendments to IAS/HKAS 1, Presentation of financial statements: Disclosure initiative

The Group has not applied any new standard or interpretation that is not yet effective for the current accounting period.

Annual Improvements to IFRS/HKFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle

This cycle of annual improvements contains amendments to four standards. Among them, IAS/HKAS 34, Interim financial reporting, has been amended to clarify that if an entity discloses the information required by the standard outside the interim financial statements by a cross-reference to the information in another statement of the interim financial report, then users of the interim financial statements should have access to the information incorporated by the cross-reference on the same terms and at the same time. The amendments do not have an impact on the Group’s interim financial report as the Group does not present the relevant required disclosures outside the interim financial statements.

Amendments to IAS/HKAS 1, Presentation of financial statements: Disclosure initiative

The amendments to IAS/HKAS 1 introduce narrow-scope changes to various presentation requirements. The amendments do not have a material impact on the presentation and disclosure of the Group’s interim financial report.

3 TURNOVER AND SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Group is principally engaged in the provision of multimedia business, including but not limited to the online shopping mall operation, multimedia and drama production and other related services (“Multimedia Business”). In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group’s chief operating decision maker for the purposes of resources allocation and performance assessment, the Group has only identified one business segment i.e. Multimedia Business. In addition, the majority of the Group’s operations are conducted in Hong Kong and majority of the assets are located in Hong Kong. Accordingly, no operating or geographical segment information is presented.

As at 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015, none of the covenants relating to drawn down facilities had been breached.

At 30 June 2016, the bank loans bore fixed interest rate ranged from 0.9% to 1.0% (31 December 2015: 0.9%) per annum and were secured by certain of the Group’s available-for-sale securities with an equivalent amount to the bank loans.

19 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(a) Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value

The following table presents the fair value of the Group’s financial instruments measured at the end of the reporting period on a recurring basis, categorised into the three-level fair value hierarchy defined in IFRS/HKFRS 13, Fair value measurement. The level into which a fair value measurement is classified as determined with reference to the observability and significance of the inputs used in the valuation technique as follows:

• Level 1 valuations: Fair values measured using only Level 1 inputs i.e. unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical financial assets or liabilities at the measurement date

• Level 2 valuations: Fair values measured using Level 2 inputs i.e. observable inputs which fail to meet Level 1, and not using unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs are inputs for which market date are not available

• Level 3 valuations: Fair values measured using significant unobservable inputs

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF HONG KONG TELEVISION NETWORK LIMITED

(Incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability)

INTRODUCTION

We have reviewed the interim financial report set out on pages 11 to 26 which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position of Hong Kong Television Network Limited and its subsidiaries as of 30 June 2016 and the related consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and condensed consolidated cash flow statement for the six month period then ended and explanatory notes. The Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited require the preparation of an interim financial report to be in compliance with the relevant provisions thereof and International/Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34, Interim financial reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board/Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“IAS/HKAS 34”). The directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial report in accordance with IAS/HKAS 34.

Our responsibility is to form a conclusion, based on our review, on the interim financial report and to report our conclusion solely to you, as a body, in accordance with our agreed terms of engagement, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

SCOPE OF REVIEW

We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410, Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity, issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of the interim financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly we do not express an audit opinion.

CONCLUSION

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial report as at 30 June 2016 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS/HKAS 34, Interim financial reporting.
