FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Revenue of the Group for the Three-Month Period amounted to approximately HK$20.2million,representing an increase of approximately 14.1% over the corresponding period in 2018. Revenue contributions were mainly derived from lottery hardware,lottery games and systems,provision of lottery distribution and ancillary services,games and entertainment business in the PRC.


The increase in revenue for the Three-Month Period was caused by the increase in sales of lottery hardware of approximately HK$3.5 million,and increase of approximately HK$0.9 million from the lottery games and systems,which increases were partially offset by a decrease of approximately HK$1.7 million in revenue from the provision of lottery distribution and ancillary services.


The loss for the Three-Month Period was approximately HK$71.0 million (Three months ended 31 March 2018: profit of approximately HK$170.7million). The change from profit to loss for the Three-Month Period was mainly attributable to several non-cash and non-operating items relating to the fair value changes of the Convertible Bonds and the contingent consideration payables under the Score Value Transaction.
