Huishang Bank Corporation Limited provided earnings guidance for the year ended December 31, 2015. The board of directors announced that based on the preliminary assessment made in the consolidated management accounts of the Group for the year 2015 which have not been audited or reviewed, the Bank estimates that total assets of the Group will exceed RMB 620 billion, representing a year-on-year increase of approximately 25% to 33%, and the net profit of the Group will exceed RMB 6,000 million, representing a year-on-year increase of approximately 8% to 10%. According to the information currently available, the Board considers that the increase in the Group's total assets was mainly attributable to the relatively fast growth in investment business and the continuing growth in deposit-taking and loan businesses, while the increase in net profit was mainly attributable to the relatively fast growth in interest-earning assets and income generated from intermediate business.
