Interim Report 2022 Summary

Key Highlights:

• Business Segments:
  • Machinery Manufacturing: Sales dropped significantly, impacted by reduced orders, high costs, and supply chain issues.
  • Plastic Products: Stabilized operations but faced pricing pressure from sluggish household appliance demand.
  • Printed Circuit Boards (PCB): European automotive demand collapsed, while Chinese automotive orders remained stable.
  • Industrial Consumables: Hindered by macroeconomic risks like inflation, supply chain bottlenecks, and reduced industrial investments.
• Management Outlook: Maintains focus on long-term investments in R&D, talent development, and operational efficiency, despite challenging market conditions. Anticipates further difficulties in PCB and industrial consumables sectors.
• Corporate Governance: Adheres to the Listing Rules and the Companies Ordinance, with a fully independent Audit Committee overseeing financial reporting.
