INFORMATION ON JIUJIANG SUNKING

Shanghai Tanda Rolling Stock Seat System Co. Ltd.* (上海坦達軌道車輛座椅系統有限公司) became the owner of 51% equity interests in Jiujiang Sunking on 28 June 2019 following the transfer of

43% equity interests from the Vendor and 8% equity interests from Beijing Hengyaoda Technology Development Centre (LLP)* (北京衡耀達科技發展中心(有限合夥)), details of which are set out in

Following the completion of the Share Transfer Agreement, the Company will cease to hold any equity interest in Jiujiang Sunking.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE DISPOSAL

The Directors consider that it is beneficial to the Group to dispose of the remaining 19.25% equity interests in Jiujiang Sunking for the following reasons:

  1. the rectifiers manufactured by Jiujiang Sunking are mainly used in the electrolytic aluminium industry in the PRC. However, the electrolytic aluminium industry in the PRC has been stagnant in recent years as it hinges on the PRC government policy. As a result, the Group's revenue derived from sale of rectifiers has declined significantly since the year ended 31 December 2018; and
  2. due to the stagnant electrolytic aluminium industry in the PRC and the significant decline in revenue derived from sale of rectifiers, the Directors have decided to divert management attention and resources into our core business of manufacture and trading of electronic power components, thereby streamlining and benefiting the operations of the Group as a whole.

The Directors believe that the terms of the transactions contemplated under the Share Transfer Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

FINANCIAL IMPACT OF THE DISPOSAL

The Disposal is expected to realise a gain of RMB21,377,362 for the Group which is derived from the difference between the Consideration of RMB100,000,000 and the carrying value of 19.25% equity interests in Jiujiang Sunking, being RMB78,622,638.

The actual financial impact of the Disposal is subject to review by the Company's auditors. The Group expects to receive net proceeds of RMB100,000,000 from the Disposal, which is intended to be applied to research and development of new products (which are mainly insulated gate bipolar transistors) and general working capital.
