Astrum Financial Holdings Limited provided consolidated earnings guidance for the three months ended 31 March 2021. The board of directors of the Company announced that, based on the preliminary assessment of the Group’s unaudited consolidated management accounts for the three months ended 31 March 2021 (the “Current Period”) and the information currently available to the Board, the Group is expected to record an unaudited loss and total comprehensive expense of approximately HKD 4.1 million for the Current Period as compared to an unaudited profit and total comprehensive income of approximately HKD 1.1 million for the three months ended 31 March 2020 (the “Corresponding Period”). Such expected decrease for the Current Period is mainly attributable to the significant decrease in placing and underwriting commission income from approximately HKD 6.7 million for the Corresponding Period to approximately HKD 0.3 million for the Current Period.
