China Soft Power Technology Holdings Limited provided earnings guidance for the six months ended 30 September 2017. The group is expected to record a profit for the six months ended 30 September 2017 as compared to a loss for the corresponding period of last year. The Board considers that the aforesaid turnaround from loss to profit was principally attributable to the aggregate profit contribution of approximately HKD 412 million, namely: dividend income (special cash dividend and distribution in specie in listed securities) from equity investments of approximately HKD 157 million; and fair value gains on equity investments at fair value through profit or loss of approximately HKD 255 million.
