Remarks:
1. Basis of presentation and comparative figures
The condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
the applicable disclosure requirements of Appendix 16 to the Rules
Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange of the Hong Kong
Limited and Statement of Standard Accounting Practice ("SSAP") 25 "Interim
Financial Reporting" issued by the Hong Kong Society of Accountants.
The condensed financial statements have been prepared under the historical
cost convention, as modified for the revaluation of investment properties
and investments in securities. The accounting policies adopted are
consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual
financial statements for the year ended 30th November, 2002, except as
described below.
During the period, the Group has adopted SSAP 12 (Revised) "Income Taxes"
in advance of its effective date. The principal effect of the
implementation of SSAP 12 (Revised) is in relation to deferred tax. SSAP
12 (Revised) requires the adoption of a balance sheet liability method,
whereby deferred tax is recognised in respect of all temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the condensed
financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the
computation of taxable profit, with limited exceptions. In the absence of
any specific transitional requirements in SSAP 12 (Revised), the new
accounting policy has been applied retrospectively. This change in
accounting policy has resulted in an increase of accumulated losses of
HK$19,807,000 as at 1st December 2002.
2. Turnover
Turnover represents the aggregate of the amounts received and
receivable from sales of properties, property rental income and cosmetics
goods sold to outside customers less returns.
