Prospect

Looking ahead, benefited from the further development in the 5G, the growing trend of big data processing and the increase in production capacity, the management is optimistic about the prospects of the cable assembly business. Although the Sino-U.S. trade war has impacted the world as well as China's domestic economy, the Group has adopted certain actions to defeat the potential risks with a view to minimizing the impacts.

In the aspect of telecommunication sector and data centre sector, the management holds positive attitude towards the future development owing to the growing customer demands for the Group's products and the enlarged production capacity.

In respect of the medical equipment sector, the revenue is expected to rise in the financial year of 2019, which is driven by increasing orders from existing customers and increasing number of new customers. The management believes that the demand for medical cable assemblies would further sustain and the Group will continuously expand its R&D team so as to enhance the R&D capabilities in respect of launching such medical-grade products and technologies.

As for the industrial equipment sector, the revenue of this sector is difficult to predict with the impacts of the diplomatic policies and crises of various countries. In light of the unstable environment, the Group will pay close attention to changes in relevant circumstances and will try its best to grasp different business opportunities in order to minimize the risks and uncertainties.

Regarding the new businesses, the Group envisages that its various sectors will grow steadily to become significant businesses, driven by the advent of its core technologies. All of these businesses will serve as catalysts for its progress and growth. The Group has developed multi-products strategy and strengthened its scope of services to its global customers.

Furthermore, to meet with the increasing sales orders placed by the customers, the Directors agreed to acquire a parcel of industrial land with two industrial buildings of Huizhou Light Engine at the consideration of HK$166.8 million. Such acquisition has been proposed and approved at the extraordinary general meeting and is expected to offer the Group more than 120% of the increased production capacity, which would also add stability to the Group's sustainable development in medium term. The Directors plan to utilise the new production capacity for telecommunication sector, data centre sector and medical equipment sector in response to the market demand, driven by the advancement in technology such as the 5G and impact of digitalisation.
