Prosperity Investment Holdings Limited provided consolidated earnings guidance for the six months ended June 30, 2018. For the period, the group expects to record a loss of approximately HKD 39 million as compared with the loss of approximately HKD 14 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The loss for the 2018 period was primarily due to the following reasons: a loss of approximately HKD 22 million (loss of approximately HKD 2 million for 2017 period) arose from the change in fair value of held-for-trading listed equity investments which was caused by the fluctuation of the stock market; and a loss of approximately HKD 6 million arose from the change in fair value of non-current listed equity investments at fair value through profit or loss upon the first adoption of Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard 9 (a fair value gain of approximately HKD 8 million treated under investment revaluation reserve for 2017 period).
