The board of directors of Tradelink Electronic Commerce Limited informd shareholders of the Company and potential investors that based on a preliminary review of the Group's unaudited consolidated management accounts for the six months ended 30 June 2021, the Group is expected to record an increase in profit attributable to shareholders of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2021 in the range of 40-50% as compared to the corresponding period in 2020, which was mainly due to the strong performance of Government Electronic Trading Services business as compared with the same period last year. Such apparently strong performance appears to be caused by a rebound of Hong Kong's external trade alongside the global economic recovery in the first half of 2021 and an abrupt plunge in net profit for the six months ended 30 June 2020 which thereby forms a low base of comparison with the same period this year. As a matter of fact, the Group issued a profit warning on 7 August 2020 as its net profit for the six months ended 30 June 2020 had dropped by around 40% compared to the previous same period.
