LIQUIDITY
-
As at 30th June, 2020, the OVERALL DEBTS of the Group including Magnificent Hotel and its subsidiaries was HK$1,270 million (31st December, 2019: HK$907 million). The increase in overall debts was due to the increase in bank borrowings during the period to make up appropriate cash reserve in deposits in case of any banking system disorder in Hong Kong because of the unstable social situation. Subsequently, HK$356.2 million bank loan was repaid during July and August 2020. Therefore, the overall debts of the Group would be about HK$914 million. The gearing ratio of the Group (including Magnificent Hotel and its subsidiaries) in terms of overall debts against funds employed was 16% (31st December, 2019: 11%).
The Group's bank borrowings carry interest at floating rates and are mainly denominated in Hong Kong dollar and Pound Sterling. Accordingly, the Group exposes to exchange risk and the management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.
As at 30th June, 2020, the Group had a total number of 570 employees (31st December, 2019: 698 employees). Remuneration and benefit were set with reference to the market.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
During the period, the tourism market in Hong Kong was most devastated by the local social unrest and the COVID-19. Overseas/PRC visitors have dropped to less than 100 a day and most hotels and retail stores suffer from an over 90% drop in turnover. Our hotel management achieved a reduction of operating costs of HK$72 million (approximately 44%) while maintaining high occupancies above 80%.
During the period, the rental income of Royal Scot Hotel, London increased by 12% compared with the same period last year and other commercial properties remained almost fully letted but retail income properties suffer substantial rental reduction.
The Group acquired Wood Street Police Headquarter building in the centre of City of London for GBP40 million on 29th January, 2020 which has a gross internal area of 117,472 s.f. on a 20,000 s.f. island site for the refurbishment of a deluxe hotel of about 210 guest rooms and restaurants, bar and facilities (subject to approval). The management is proud of having this opportunity to renovate this landmark heritage building in the centre of City of London.
LOOKING AHEAD
The Group has nine income producing hotels, seven in Hong Kong, one in Shanghai, one in London, and the newly acquired Wood Street Hotel refurbishment project in London.
Hong Kong has been suffering from US-Sino trade war, social disorders and coronavirus in the last several months which has stopped international/PRC tourism visiting. Such unforeseeable circumstances have adversely affected the local economy, hospitality, retail and hotel market of Hong Kong with most establishments either closed or operating on low occupancies with significant losses.
It is the management's view that with the remaining months of this financial year due to the continuous COVID-19 effect, unstable US-China relationship, it is quite unlikely overseas/PRC visitors will return to Hong Kong in significant volume. Hotels and retail stores will continue to suffer from low occupancies and high operating costs. The management will continue to try to maintain high hotel occupancies and to control hotel operating costs.
Most of the tenants at the Group's 633 King's Road office building and Shun Ho Tower are multinational trading companies and because of the US/China trade war, retail closures due to the street violence and the nearly collapsed economies, those trading companies tenants are experiencing difficulties. Thus, it is expected the vacancies of the buildings may increase quickly.
In longer term, the continuous adverse US-China relationship will impact on the geopolitics, which will continue to damage any tourism and economy recovering.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
-
Compliance with the Corporate Governance Code
During the six months ended 30th June, 2020, the Company has complied with all the code provisions of the Corporate Governance Code set out in Appendix 14 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities (the "Listing Rules") on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited with the exception of the following deviations:
Code Provision A.2.1: chairman and chief executive should not be performed by the same individual
The Company does not have separate appointments for Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. William Cheng Kai Man holds both positions. The Board believes that vesting the roles of both Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in the same person enables the Company to have a stable and consistent leadership. It also facilitates the planning and execution of the Company's strategy and is hence, for the interests of the Company and its shareholders.
Code Provision A.4.1: non-executive directors should be appointed for a specific term
Except three non-executive directors, all directors of the Company (including executive or non-executive directors) are not appointed for a fixed term. The Articles of Association of the Company stipulate that every director (including executive or non-executive directors) shall retire and be re-elected at least once every three years. Therefore, the Company has adopted adequate measures to ensure the corporate governance of the Company complies with the same level to that required under the Corporate Governance Code.
11
Code Provision A.5.2: the nomination committee should perform the duties set out in paragraphs (a) to (d)
The terms of reference of the nomination committee adopted by the Company are in compliance with Code Provision A.5.2 except that it is not the duty of the nomination committee to select individuals nominated for directorships. The nomination committee comprises a majority of independent non-executive directors who are not involved in the daily operation of the Company and may not have sufficient knowledge of industry practice. Such duty should be performed by the board.
Code Provision B.1.2: the remuneration committee's terms of reference should include, as a minimum, paragraphs (a) to (h)
The terms of reference of the remuneration committee adopted by the Company are in compliance with Code Provision B.1.2 except that it is not the duties of the remuneration committee to approve the management's remuneration proposals, compensation payable to executive directors and senior management for any loss or termination of office or appointment and compensation arrangements relating to dismissal or removal of directors for misconduct. The remuneration committee comprises a majority of independent non-executive directors who are not involved in the daily operation of the Company and may not have sufficient knowledge of industry practice.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
SHUN HO PROPERTY INVESTMENTS LIMITED (incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability)
INTRODUCTION
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated financial statements of Shun Ho Property Investments Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries set out on pages 15 to 40, which comprise the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of 30th June, 2020 and the related condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss, consolidated statement of total comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and certain explanatory notes. The Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited require the preparation of a report on interim financial information to be in compliance with the relevant provisions thereof and Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ("HKAS 34") issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with HKAS 34. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed consolidated financial statements based on our review, and to report our conclusion solely to you, as a body, in accordance with our agreed terms of engagement, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.
13
SCOPE OF REVIEW
We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of these condensed consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
CONCLUSION
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with HKAS 34.

Notes:
- The capital reserve was created by capital reduction of the Company on 28th June, 1988.
- The property revaluation reserve is arisen from the transfer of properties from property, plant and equipment to investment properties and will be transferred to retained profits when the relevant properties are disposed of.
- The own shares held by a subsidiary represents the carrying amount of shares in the Company held by an entity at the time the entity became a subsidiary of the Company.
- The other reserve was resulted from the acquisition of additional interest or disposal of partial interest in subsidiaries without losing control in previous years.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30TH JUNE, 2020
1. BASIS OF PREPARATION
Shun Ho Property Investments Limited (the "Company") is a public limited company incorporated in Hong Kong and its shares are listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Hong Kong Stock Exchange").
The Company's immediate holding company is Omnico Company Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shun Ho Holdings Limited ("Shun Ho Holdings", an intermediate holding company of the Company) which is a public limited company incorporated in Hong Kong whose shares are listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The directors of the Company consider the Company's ultimate holding company to be Trillion Resources Limited, an international business company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands.
The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong Dollars ("HK$"), which is also the functional currency of the Company.
The principal activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group") are the investment and operation of hotels, property investment and securities investment.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the "HKICPA") as well as the applicable disclosure requirements of Appendix 16 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
21
1. BASIS OF PREPARATION - continued
The financial information relating to the year ended 31st December, 2019 that is included in these condensed consolidated financial statements as comparative information does not constitute the Company's statutory annual consolidated financial statements for that year but is derived from those financial statements. Further information relating to these statutory financial statements is as follows:
The Company has delivered the financial statements for the year ended 31st December, 2019 to the Register of Companies as required by section 662(3) of, and Part 3 of Schedule 6 to, the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
The Company's auditor has reported on those financial statements. The auditor's report was unqualified; did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditor drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying its report; and did not contain a statement under sections 406(2), 407(2) or (3) of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, the directors of the Company have given careful consideration to the future liquidity of the Group in light of the fact that the Group's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by HK$159,470,000 as at 30th June, 2020. In the opinion of the directors of the Company, the Group has a number of sources of finance available to fund its operations, including internal resources and available unutilised banking facilities. The intermediate holding company has also agreed not to demand for repayment until the Group has the financial ability to do so. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

1A. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN THE CURRENT INTERIM PERIOD
The outbreak of Covid-19 and the subsequent quarantine measures as well as the travel restrictions imposed by many countries have had negative impacts to the global economy, business environment, directly and indirectly affect the operations of the Group. To address negative impact arising from the pandemic, the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the "Government of the HKSAR") has announced some financial measures and supports for corporates. As a result of these factors, the financial positions and performance of the Group were affected in different aspects, including reduction in revenue, change in fair value of investment properties and recognition of government grants in respect of Covid-19-related subsidies.
During the current interim period, the Group recognised government grants of HK$8,597,000 in respect of Covid-19-related subsidies, of which amounted to HK$4,847,000 related to Employment Support Scheme provided by the Government of the HKSAR and set off the relevant salary expenses.
2. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for investment properties and certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair values, as appropriate.
Other than changes in accounting policies resulting from application of amendments to Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRSs"), the accounting policies and methods of computation used in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30th June, 2020 are the same as those followed and presented in the preparation of the Group's financial statements for the year ended 31st December, 2019.
Application of amendments to HKFRSs
In the current interim period, the Group has applied the Amendments to References to the Conceptual Framework in HKFRS Standards and the following amendments to HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA, for the first time, which are mandatory effective for the annual period beginning on or after 1st January, 2020 for the preparation of the Group's condensed consolidated financial statements:
Amendments to HKAS 1 | Definition of Material |
and HKAS 8 | |
Amendments to HKFRS 3 | Definition of a Business |
Amendments to HKFRS 9, | Interest Rate Benchmark Reform |
HKAS 39 and HKFRS 7 |
23
-
PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Application of amendments to HKFRSs - continued
Except as described below, the application of the Amendments to References to the Conceptual Framework in HKFRS Standards and the amendments to HKFRSs in the current period has had no material impact on the Group's financial positions and performance for the current and prior periods and/or on the disclosures set out in these condensed consolidated financial statements.
2.1 Impacts of application on Amendments to HKAS 1 and HKAS 8 "Definition of Material"
The amendments provide a new definition of material that states "information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity." The amendments also clarify that materiality depends on the nature or magnitude of information, either individually or in combination with other information, in the context of the financial statements taken as a whole.
The application of the amendments in the current period had no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Changes in presentation and disclosures on the application of the amendments, if any, will be reflected on the consolidated financial statements for the year ending 31st December, 2020. - REVENUE

DIVIDEND
During the six months ended 30th June, 2020, no final dividend was declared and paid to shareholders for the year ended 31st December, 2019 (six months ended 30th June, 2019: a final dividend of HK4.98 cents per share amounting to HK$25,478,000 was declared and paid to shareholders for the year ended 31st December, 2018).
The directors have resolved not to declare or propose an interim dividend for the six months ended 30th June, 2020 (six months ended 30th June, 2019: HK1.95 cents per share amounting to HK$9,976,000). - (LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE
The calculation of the basic (loss) earnings per share is based on the loss for the period attributable to the owners of the Company of HK$142,331,000 (profit for the six months ended 30th June, 2019: HK$91,466,000) and on 511,613,000 shares (six months ended 30th June, 2019: 511,613,000 shares) in issue during the period. The number of shares adopted in the calculation of the earnings per share has been arrived at after eliminating the shares in the Company held by a subsidiary of the Company.
Diluted (loss) earnings per share for both periods are not presented as there are no potential ordinary shares outstanding during both periods. - PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
During the six months ended 30th June, 2020, the Group has acquired property, plant and equipment (8 Park St. James, St. James's Terrace, London to be registered address of Wood Street Hotel Limited in the UK) of HK$29,438,000 (six months ended 30th June, 2019: HK$3,872,000).
The Group has disposed of property, plant and equipment with carrying amount of HK$139,000 (six months ended 30th June, 2019: HK$18,269,000) during the period.
During the period, a building with a carrying amount of HK$57,499,000 is transferred from property, plant and equipment to investment properties.

11. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES
Investment properties are stated at fair value based on the valuations performed by independent professional valuers which are not connected with the Group and the Directors of the Company. The fair value is derived by using income capitalisation method and by making reference to comparable rental and sales transactions as available in the market which involves certain estimates. During the assessment of the fair values of investment properties, the valuers and the Directors of the Company have exercised their judgement and are satisfied that the method of valuation and the key inputs, including capitalisation rates and market rents, are reflective of the current market conditions. If there are changes in the assumptions used for the valuations, the fair value of the investment properties will change in the future.
The investment properties of the Group with an aggregate carrying amount of approximately HK$5,154,490,000 (31st December, 2019: HK$4,937,300,000) were rented out under operating leases at the end of the reporting period. Outgoing expense for investment properties that are not generating income during the period are insignificant. The resulting loss on fair value changes of investment properties of HK$184,229,000 has been recognised directly in profit or loss for the six months ended 30th June, 2020 (six months ended 30th June, 2019: gain on fair value changes of investment properties of HK$10,000,000).
In estimating the fair value of the properties, the highest and best use of the properties is their current use.
The income capitalisation approach estimates the values of the properties on an open market basis by capitalising rental income on a fully leased basis having regard to the current passing rental income from existing tenancies and potential future reversionary income at the market level. The term value involves the capitalisation of the current passing rental income over the existing lease term. The reversionary value is taken to be current market rental income upon the expiry of the lease and is capitalised on a fully leased basis. In this approach, the valuers have considered the term yield and reversionary yield. The term yield is used for capitalisation of the current passing rental income as at the date of valuation whilst the reversionary yield is used to convert reversionary rental income.
During the six months ended 30th June, 2020, a deposit paid for acquisition of an investment property (37 Wood Street, London) of HK$429,470,000 was transferred to investment properties upon the completion of the acquisition.

Fair value of the Group's financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis
Some of the Group's financial assets are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The following table gives information about how the fair values of these financial assets are determined (in particular, the valuation technique(s) and inputs used), as well as the level of the fair value hierarchy into which the fair value measurements are categorised (Levels 1 to 3) based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements is observable.
- Level 1 fair value measurements are based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active market for identical assets or liabilities;
- Level 2 fair value measurements are based on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
- Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
