PROFIT ALERT AND ESTIMATED REDUCTION OF LOSS

This announcement is made by BGMC International Limited (the "Company", and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") pursuant to Rule 13.09 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Listing Rules") and the Inside Information Provisions (as defined under the Listing Rules) under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).

The board (the "Board") of directors (the "Directors") of the Company wishes to inform the shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders") and potential investors that based on its preliminary assessment of the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the six months ended 31 March 2021 (the "Reporting Period") and information currently available to the management, the Group is expected to record a net loss of approximately RM30.9 million for the Reporting Period, which represents a decrease of 80.0% in its consolidated loss attributable to the equity holders of the Company for the corresponding period in 2020 (net loss of RM154.5 million). The decrease in net loss for the Reporting Period was mainly attributable to, among other, (i) revision to the estimated liquidated ascertained damages (the "LAD"), resulting in a lower impact on the recognition of construction revenue in the Reporting Period; (ii) lower manpower cost due to reduction in headcount employed during the Reporting Period; and (iii) lower tax expenses incurred during the Reporting Period as compared to the corresponding period in 2020.

Shareholders and potential investors should note that the information contained in this announcement is only based on a preliminary assessment by the Board with reference to the information currently available to the Board and it has not been audited by the auditor of the Company, nor has been reviewed or confirmed by the audit committee of the Company. As at the date of this announcement, the Company is still in the process of finalising its consolidated interim results for the Reporting Period, which are subject to adjustment and final review by the Company.
