OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION
4.OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

The Group has six reportable segments based on geographic areas, namely Hong Kong, Singapore, Philippines, Taiwan, Malaysia (Malaysia ceased operations as at June 30, 2024 and is no longer a reportable segment as at December 31, 2024) and Other Asia. Each of these geographic segments operates an online financial comparison platform with their respective local market brand. Each geographical segment has different regulatory, political and economic environments for which its financial performance is influenced by market factors and strategic initiatives. Furthermore, each geographic segment represents a business in different stages of development with Hong Kong and Singapore being the most mature. No operating segments have been aggregated to form the above reportable operating segments.

 

Management monitors the results of the Group’s operating segments separately for the purpose of assessing performance and making decisions about resource allocations. Segment performance is evaluated based on reportable segment results which is a measure of operating loss before tax.
