Remarks:
(1) Interim Dividend per share for six months ended 30 September 1999 has
been adjusted for the share subdivision on 3 April 2000.
(2) Earnings per share
The calculation of the basic earnings per share is based on the Group's
net profit for the period of HK$12,653,000 (1999: HK$20,598,000) and on
the weighted average number of 3,866,024,000 (1999: 3,246,947,890)
ordinary shares in issue during the period.
The weighted average number of ordinary shares for the purpose
of basic earnings per share has been adjusted for the effect of the
subdivision of shares made by the Company on 3 April 2000.
No diluted earnings per share is calculated for the six months ended 30
September 2000 as there were no share options outstanding during that
period.
As all the Company's warrants lapsed during the six months ended 30
September 1999 and the exercise price of the outstanding share options of
the Company was greater than the average market price of the Company's
shares during that period, no diluted earnings per share was calculated
for the six months ended 30 September, 1999.
(3) Due to the adoption of SSAP 25, certain figures have been reclassified
to comform with current year's presentation.
