Comba Telecom Systems Holdings Limited provided consolidated earnings guidance for the year ended December 31, 2018. For the year, the group is expected to record net loss for the Current Year as compared with net profit for the corresponding period of 2017. The Group's consolidated net loss for the Current Year was primarily attributable to the following factors: in order to be well-prepared for the launch of 5G network, the Group intensified its effort in the relevant research and development, leading to an increase in research and development costs; the Group conducted an internal restructuring and employee optimization for the Current Year, leading to one-off restructuring and optimization costs; and ETL COMPANY LIMITED, a non wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has been proactively building local 4G network in Laos, leading to an increase in the relevant investment and costs.
