Harmonic Strait Financial Holdings Limited announced that based on the preliminary information currently available, the turnover of the group for the six months ended June 30, 2015 is expected to decrease substantially as compared with that for the corresponding period in 2014. The anticipated decrease in the turnover of the group is primarily attributable to market shrink of the trading business of party products for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Notwithstanding the aforesaid, it is currently expected that the net loss of the group for the six months ended June 30, 2015 will be slightly lower than that for the corresponding period in 2014.

Such a decrease in net loss of the group is mainly attributable to (i) the reduction of finance cost resulting from the repayment of outstanding loan in an amount of HKD 147.5 million; and (ii) the financial income of approximately RMB 1.9 million generated from credit guarantee and investment business of the group.
