3.      Earnings per share

The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the Group's profit 
attributable to shareholders of HK$143,945,000 (2001: HK$276,138,000) less 
preference share dividend of HK$133,878,000 (2001: HK$133,878,000) and the 
weighted average of 2,059,968,000 (2001: 2,059,968,000) ordinary shares in 
issue during the year.

The diluted earnings per share for the year ended 30 June 2002 is not 
presented as the conversion of preference shares is anti-dilutive.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended 30 June 
2001 was based on Group's profit attributable to shareholders of 
HK$276,138,000 and 5,253,622,306 ordinary shares which are the weighted 
average number of 2,059,968,000 of ordinary shares in issue during that 
year plus the weighted average of 3,193,654,306 ordinary shares deemed to 
be issued on the conversion of all preference shares.

The conversion of share options is not dilutive for the years ended 30 
June 2002 and 2001 as the exercise prices of the Company's outstanding 
options are higher than the fair value per ordinary share in the current 
year and the previous year.
