Shenzhen Investment Limited provided preliminary consolidated earnings guidance for the six months ended 30 June 2018. The group is expected to record a significant decline in the consolidated net profit for the six months ended 30 June 2018 by about 90% over that for the same period last year. The business performance of the group for the six months ended 30 June 2018 remained stable. The expected decline in the consolidated net profit for the six months ended 30 June 2018 was primarily attributable to the following factors: a non-recurring gain on disposal of subsidiaries recorded in the corresponding period last year whilst no such non-recurring gain was recorded in the six months ended 30 June 2018; and the non-cash revaluation loss of the group's financial assets at the fair value on 30 June 2018. As of the date, the main financial asset assessment parameters causing such losses have basically recovered, but the relevant parameters and their impact on the financial statements are still changing. If excluding the abovementioned non-cash revaluation loss of the Group's financial assets at the fair value on 30 June 2018, the group is expected to record a decline in the consolidated net profit for the six months ended 30 June 2018 by about 50% over that for the same period last year.
