3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The calculation of the basic earnings per share is based on the net profit
for the year of HK$7,418,000 (2002: HK$6,723,000) and on 249,000,000
(2002: 249,000,000) shares in issue during the year.
Diluted earnings per share for 2002 was not presented as the exercise
price of the share options outstanding during that year was higher than
the fair value per share and accordingly the computation of diluted
earnings per share did not assume their exercise.
All share options lapsed in the year 2001.
