United Gene High-Tech Group Limited provided earnings guidance for the six months ended December 31, 2011. The group is expected to record a loss for the six months ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the profit recorded in the same period in 2010. Based on the relevant information currently available to the company, the Board considers that such loss was mainly attributable to the reduction in turnover; the impairment losses on an intangible asset and goodwill; and the increase in operating expenses for the startup of the health care management services centre.
