Remarks: 1. Basis of preparation and consolidation The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on 12 December 2001 as an exempted limited company under the Companies Law, Cap 22 (Law 3of 1961, as consolidated and revised) of the Cayman Islands. The Company's shares were listed on GEM on 29 July 2002. The Group is principally engaged in the development and provision of system integration solutions and software development in the PRC. The unaudited consolidated results have been prepared under the historical cost convention in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), which comprise standards and interpretations approved by the International Accounting Standards Board, and International Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Standing Interpretations Committee that remain in effect. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group¡¦s annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2003. These financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure provisions of the GEM Listing Rules. 2. Earnings per share The calculation of basic earnings per share for the three months and six months periods ended 30 June 2004 is based on the net profit attributable to shareholders of approximately RMB2,583,000 and RMB4,833,000 (2003: RMB2,271,000 and RMB4,185,000) and the number of 1,084,090,000 ordinary shares in issue for the three months and six months ended 30 June 2004 (2003: 1,084,090,000 ordinary shares). Diluted earnings per share equals basic earnings per share because there were no potential dilutive ordinary shares outstanding during the three months and six months periods ended 30 June 2004 and 2003. 3. Interim dividends The Board does not recommend the payment of an interim dividend for the six months ended 30 June 2004 (2003: Nil). |
