The board of directors of the Ausupreme International Holdings Limited announced that the Group is expected to record a consolidated profit attributable to equity owners of the Company within a range of HKD 700,000 to HKD 1,200,000 for the six months ended 30 September 2017 as compared to a consolidated loss attributable to equity owners of the Company of approximately HKD 1,988,000 for the six months ended 30 September 2016. The expected improvement in the Group's results for the Period was mainly due to the increases in sales of both health supplement products and personal care products; and the absence of non-recurring listing expenses incurred for the corresponding period of 2016. Such impacts were partially offset by an increase in direct selling expenses including sales commissions and expenses incurred for the expansion of various sales channels.
