Net cash generated by operating activities was RMB 770,000 against RMB 8,268,000 a year ago. The revenue of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2016 was affected by the decrease in the sales to certain major customers of the Group resulting from economic slowdown in the PRC for the period and intensive competition from other candies manufacturers for the period. The decrease in loss for the six months ended 30 June 2016 was mainly due to (i) the listing expenses amounting to approximately HKD 2,602,000 incurred during the six months ended 30 June 2015 whilst no such expenses were recorded during the six months ended 30 June 2016; and (ii) partially offset by the decrease in revenue and decrease in gross profit.
