The Board of China Success Finance Group Holdings Limited informed the shareholders of the company and potential investors that the Group expects to record a decrease in profit for the six months ended 30 June 2014 as compared to that for the corresponding period in 2013. Without incurring any listing expenses for this period, the reasons of the decrease in profit were mainly due to i) the increase in the operating expenses as a result of the share based payment made for the share options granted to the management and employees of the Company and the foreign exchange loss as a result of the drop in the exchange rate of the Renminbi; and ii) the decrease in the share of profits of an associate as a result of the increased provisions made by the associate as prudent measures to safeguard its risk exposure. However, the Board believes that the business of the Group as a whole has remained stable during the period and the increase in the operating expenses and the provisions made in the associate as mentioned above are non-cash effect which will not have any negative impact on the cash flow from operating activities of the Company during the period.

Actual result figures will be announced upon the completion of the review by the Company's auditor and the approvals of both the Audit Committee and the Board.
