The board of directors of Artini China Company Ltd. informed the shareholders of the company and potential investors that, based on the preliminary assessment of the group's latest unaudited consolidated management accounts for the six months ended 30 September 2016, the group expects to record a profit compared to a net loss for the six months ended 30 September 2015. The expected profit is mainly attributable to a reversal for impairment loss on inventories recorded in September 2016, the decrease in selling expenses during the six months ended 30 September 2016 as compared to that of the corresponding period in 2015; and absence of losses on disposal of the investment properties during the six months period 30 September 2016 as compared to the corresponding period in 2015.
