Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Growth: Net revenue increased by 17.6% (HK$0.56 million) compared to the prior period, driven primarily by an increase in recurring client revenue (up HK$0.57 million) and higher average revenue per client.
• Expense Increases:
  • Cost of Revenue: Increased by HK$0.48 million, largely due to higher consulting and professional fees (HK$0.32 million vs HK$0.02 million) and staff salaries.
  • Sales & Marketing: Increased by HK$0.76 million due to expanded marketing consultancy services for business development.
  • General & Administrative: Increased by HK$0.72 million, primarily driven by higher professional fees (audit, business development) and staff salaries.
• Other Income: Increased significantly by HK$1.11 million (from HK$21k to HK$1.13m), attributable to higher interest income from promissory notes and foreign exchange gains.
• Acquisition: On September 1, 2025, the Company acquired 100% of Capital Summit Enterprises Limited for US$1.7 million, resulting in HK$13.26 million in goodwill. This acquisition contributed nil revenue for the period.
• Cash Flow: Net cash used in operating activities increased to HK$13.4 million (from HK$6.9 million). However, net cash provided by financing activities surged to HK$53.9 million due to the June 2025 follow-on offering.

Guidance, Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items

• Outlook: Management expects to fund working capital requirements from cash on hand, operating cash flows, and proceeds from the recent equity offering. The company believes it has sufficient liquidity for at least the next 12 months.
• Unusual Items:
  • Share-Based Compensation: In the prior period (2024), HK$4.7 million was recorded as share-based payment for marketing advisory services. This was not present in the current period.
  • Government Grant: A HK$0.75 million government grant refund was recorded as an expense (negative income) in the prior period; no such item occurred in the current period.
• Risks:
  • Liquidity: Reliance on equity financing and promissory notes to fund operations and investments.
  • Credit Risk: Exposure to credit risk from accounts receivable and promissory notes, though management monitors aging and collectability closely.
  • Foreign Exchange: Exposure to fluctuations between SGD and HKD, as the Singapore subsidiary's functional currency is SGD.
  • Goodwill Impairment: The recent acquisition created significant goodwill (HK$13.26 million), which is subject to annual impairment testing.
• Subsequent Event: On December 17, 2025, shareholders approved a redesignation of share capital into a multi-class structure (Class A and Class B), concentrating voting power with Top Elect Group Limited.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Revenue Quality: Verify the sustainability of the 17.6% revenue growth and the concentration of recurring clients (75% of revenue).
• Profitability Path: Assess the timeline to profitability given the persistent net loss (HK$17.5 million) and high operating expenses relative to revenue.
• Capital Structure: Review the impact of the new multi-class share structure approved in December 2025 on shareholder voting rights.
• Acquisition Integration: Monitor the performance of the newly acquired Capital Summit Enterprises Limited against its profit guarantee (US$0.17 million for the period April 1, 2025 – March 31, 2026).
• Liquidity Runway: Confirm the burn rate and the sufficiency of the US$6.87 million raised in June 2025 to cover the HK$13.4 million operating cash outflow.
