Remarks: 1. Group reorganisation The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands on 6 December 2000. Pursuant to a group reorganisation (the Group Reorganisation) to rationalise the structure of the Group in preparation for the listing of its shares on the GEM of the Stock Exchange on 5 December 2001, the Company became the holding company of the companies then comprising the Group on 21 November 2001. Further details of the Group Reorganisation are set out in the Company's prospectus (the "Prospectus") dated 27 November 2001. 2. Basis of presentation The Group Reorganisation has been accounted for by the Company using the merger accounting method in accordance with the Statement of Standard Accounting Practice ("SSAP") No. 2.127 Accounting for group reconstructions issued by the Hong Kong Society of Accountants. The comparative figures for the three months and nine months ended 31 July 2001 included the results of all companies involved in the Group Reorganisation, which were assumed to have been in existence throughout the said periods or since their respective dates of incorporation, if it was a shorter period. The figures for the nine months ended 31 July 2002 have been prepared as if the Group Reorganisation had been completed on 1 November 2001. All significant transactions and balances among the companies comprising the Group have been eliminated on combination and consolidation. 3. Earnings per share The calculation of basic earnings per share for the nine months ended 31 July 2002 was based on the unaudited profit attributable to shareholders of approximately HK$3,571,000 (2001: approximately HK$7,180,000) and the weighted average number of approximately 536,600,733 shares (2001: 414,600,000 shares) in issue during the period. In determining the weighted average number of shares, 414,600,000 shares were deemed to have been issued on the assumption that the Group Reorganisation and the subsequent capitalisation issue of 414,000,000 shares of the Company had been effective during the nine months ended 31 July 2001. The calculation of the diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended 31 July 2002 was based on the unaudited net profit attributable to shareholders for the nine months ended 31 July 2002 and on a weighted average number of approximately 639,622,069 shares, being the 536,600,733 shares as used in the calculation of basic earnings per share, and the weighted average of approximately 103,021,336 shares assumed to have been issued at no consideration on the deemed exercise of the pre-IPO share options and the options granted to Advance New Technology Limited. The diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended 31 July 2001 have not been calculated as no diluting events existed during the period.
