Sing Tao News Corp. Ltd. provided group earnings guidance for the first half ended June 30, 2013. The group is expected to report a decline in net profit attributable to the shareholders.

Such decline is not related to the group's underlying media business, it is mainly attributable to a one-off profit in the first half of 2012 arised from disposal of a property by a joint venture operation of approximately HKD 23,000,000 which did not happen again in 2013.
