PROFIT WARNING

This announcement is made by TEM Holdings Limited (the ''Company'' and together with its subsidiaries, the ''Group'') pursuant to Rule 17.10 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Growth Enterprise Market (the ''GEM'') of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the ''GEM Listing Rules'') and the Inside Information Provisions (as defined under the GEM Listing Rules) under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571, Laws of Hong Kong).

The board (the ''Board'') of the directors (the ''Directors'') of the Company would like to inform the shareholders of the Company (the ''Shareholders'') and potential investors that, based on the preliminary review by the Board of the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the six months ended 31 December 2017 (the ''Period''), the Group is expected to record a loss for the Period as compared to a profit of approximately HK$1.3 million for the same period of 2016. The Board considers that the loss was primarily attributable to:

  • - the drop in gross profit which was caused by shortage of supply and tight delivery of raw material from a major supplier which led to an increase in the cost of direct materials and may last until the end of March 2018. We have taken remedial actions, such as finding alternative suppliers, to mitigate the above factor; and

  • - the depreciation of US dollars against Malaysian Ringgit which led to exchange losses as compared to an exchange gain for the same period of 2016.

As at the date of this announcement, the Company is still in the course of finalising its unaudited consolidated results of the Group for the Period. The information contained in this announcement is only based on a preliminary assessment by the Board with reference to the information currently available to the Company. Such information has neither been confirmed nor audited by the auditors of the Company and may be subject to change. Shareholders and potential investors of the Company shall refer to the unaudited consolidated results of the Group for the Period to be published in due course.
