Rich Goldman Holdings Limited provided group earnings guidance for the six months ended 31 December 2019. For the six months, the group is expected that it will record a loss as compared to the profit recorded for the six months ended 31 December 2018. The aforesaid loss for the 2019 interim period expected to be recorded by the Group is primarily due to the following reasons: (i) decline in the Group's revenue during the 2019 Interim Period as compared to the Comparing Period attributable to (a) the decrease in revenue from the gaming and entertainment business mainly due to impact of the China-U.S. trade war on China's economy, and (b) the decrease in revenue from the hotel operation business as a result of the drop in number of tourists coming to Hong Kong due to the continuous social incidents during the 2019 Interim Period, which were partly offset by the increase in the revenue from the money lending business; and increase in the Group's depreciation expenses for the 2019 Interim Period primarily resulted from the Group's hotel operation business following the completion of the acquisition of the remaining 70% interest in a hotel property in April 2019.
