Results for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2024 in Connection with the Unaudited Interim
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2024

 

Recent Developments

Results for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2024

 

Revenues

 

Our revenues decreased by approximately HK$5.2 million, or 5.4%, from approximately HK$97.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to approximately HK$91.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly due to (i) a decrease in revenues from project and maintenance of HK$7.5 million, (ii) an increase in revenues from provision of security guarding and screening services of HK$3.7 million, and (iii) a decrease in revenues from equipment leasing of HK$1.4 million.

 

Our revenues from project and maintenance decreased by HK$7.5 million, or 12.4%, from HK$61.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$53.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly attributable to the change in contract size mix of project and maintenance performed. Certain revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2023 were contributed by several projects with larger revenues recognized, including one project of about HK$7 million, one project of about HK$5 million, three projects of over HK$3 million, four projects of over HK$2 million, and two projects of over HK$1 million. Comparatively, certain revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2024 were contributed by less projects with larger revenues recognized, including three projects of about HK$4 million, two projects of over HK$2 million, and six projects of over HK$1 million.

 

Our revenues from provision of security guarding and screening services increased by HK$3.7 million, or 11.7%, from HK$31.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$35.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024. The increase was mainly due to (i) the increase in revenues from related vocational training services from HK$1.7 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$2.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024; and (ii) the change in contract size mix of security guarding and screening services, as the revenues from seven customers contributing revenue of over HK$1 million during the six months ended March 31, 2024 amounted to HK$12.9 million, compared to five customers during the six months ended March 31, 2023 amounted to HK$9.4 million.

 

Our revenues from equipment leasing decreased by HK$1.4 million, or 34.1%, from HK$4.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$2.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly because the equipment leasing agreements of certain customers were expired, and we offered rental terms more preferential to the customers choosing to renew the agreements upon the expiry of original lease term.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Our cost of revenues decreased by HK$6.3 million, or 8.8%, from HK$71.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$65.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024 mainly due to change in contract size mix of the security-related engineering services performed, causing less sizable projects being recognized during the six months ended March 31, 2024 and thus, less cost of revenues being recognized. 

 

Gross Profit

 

Our gross profit increased by HK$1.1 million, or 4.4%, from HK$25.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$26.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024, mainly resulting from the decrease in cost of revenues. The gross profit margin increased from 26.3% for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to 29.0% for the six months ended March 31, 2024. The increase was due to an increase in profit margin of the security-related engineering services performed.

 

 

 

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses

 

Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased by HK$1.8 million, or 12.7%, from HK$13.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$15.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024. The increase was mainly due to an increase in legal and professional fee from HK$0.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$1.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024, since more legal and professional services such as legal advisory are required for the Company being a public entity.

 

Losses on disposal of property and equipment

 

Our losses on disposal of property and equipment decreased by HK$0.2 million, or 20.7%, from HK$0.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$0.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024, mainly due to a decrease in the number of X-ray machines disposed from two during the six months ended March 31, 2023 to one during the six months ended March 31, 2024.

 

Other income

 

Our other income decreased by HK$0.3 million, or 26.8%, from HK$1.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$0.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in government subsidies from HK$0.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to nil for the six months ended March 31, 2024.

 

Finance expenses

 

Our finance expenses increased by HK$14,056, or 38.2%, from HK$36,798 for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$50,854 for the six months ended March 31, 2024 due to an increase in interest expense on lease liabilities from HK$19,917 for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$42,746 for the six months ended March 31, 2024 mainly attributable to the renewal of two tenancy agreements during the six months ended March 31, 2024.

 

Income tax expenses

 

Our income tax expenses decreased by HK$0.8 million, or 45.0%, from HK$1.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to HK$1.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in income before income tax and the reduction of assessable profits of certain subsidiaries since certain expenses incurred by the Company for and on behalf of the group were allocated to the subsidiaries.

 

Net income

 

As a result of the foregoing, our net income maintained stable at HK$10.1 million for both six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2024.
