The board of directors of Longrun Tea Group Company Limited announced that based on preliminary review on the group's management accounts, although there is a deterioration in the operating results in the group's tea business as compared with the corresponding period for 2012, the group is expected to record a profit for the six months ended September 30, 2013 which is attributable to the one-off income arising from the disposal of a commercial property in Hong Kong. This positive profit alert announcement is only based on the preliminary review of the Group's management accounts available for the time being, which are still subject to possible adjustments arising from further internal review by the Board.
