Hi Sun Technology (China) Ltd. provided earnings guidance for the full year ended 31 December 2014. The Group is expected to record a significant increase in net profit for the year ended 31 December 2014 as compared to the year ended 31 December 2013. During the year ended 31 December 2014, payment processing solutions segment and financial solutions segment recognised approximately 15% to 20% and 40% to 50% growth in turnover respectively.

The Board believes that the expected increase in net profit was mainly attributable to gain of approximately HKD 300 million on disposal of 80,000,000 ordinary shares of PAX Global Technology Limited, an associated company, the shares of which are listed on the Stock Exchange during the year ended 31 December 2014; gain of approximately HKD 126 million on disposal of available-for-sale financial assets during the year ended 31 December 2014; gain of approximately HKD 50 million on deemed disposal of a subsidiary during the year ended 31 December 2014; and partially offset by a one-time non-cash impairment loss of approximately HKD 60 million on certain intangible assets of electronic power meters and solutions segment for the year ended 31 December 2014. There may be changes or adjustments following further review of the unaudited consolidated management accounts by the auditor of the company.
