[2] | The Group recognized impairment against its investments in Shanghai Guozhi and Guangzhou Hongsi of USD 149,000 and USD 447,000, respectively after considering the latest operation status and financial and liquidity position.
[3] | In 2016, the Group made an equity investment in a privately-held company, Big Data, of USD 1,442,000 for 43.16% equity interest. The Group classified Big Data as an equity method investment as it had only significant influence instead of control over Big Data. In January of 2017, Big Data issued certain new shares to a third party and its original shareholders and the Group’s interest in Big Data diluted from 43.16% to 28.77% with a dilution gain of USD 326,000 arising from the deemed disposal. As at December 31, 2017, the Group recognized full impairment of USD 1,251,000 for its interest in Big Data as share of loss from equity investees after taking into account the latest operation status and financial position of Big Data.
