1.      Basis of preparation of financial statements

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 
31 March 2005 ("Period") have been prepared in accordance with the 
requirements of The Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock 
Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("Listing Rules") and Hong Kong Statement of 
Standard Accounting Practice ("SSAP") 25 "Interim Financial Reporting" 
issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("
HKICPA"). These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited 
but have been reviewed by the Company's audit committee.

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under 
the historical cost convention. The accounting policies and basis of 
presentation used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated 
financial statements are consistent with those adopted in the preparation 
of the Group's audited consolidated financial statements for the year 
ended 30 September 2004.

In 2004, the HKICPA has issued a number of new and revised Hong Kong 
Accounting Standards and Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (
collectively ''new HKFRSs'') which are effective for accounting periods 
beginning on or after 1 January 2005. The Group has not early adopted the 
new HKFRSs in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial 
statements for the six months ended 31 March 2005.

2.      Earnings per share

The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the Group's 
unaudited net profit from ordinary activities attributable to shareholders 
for the Period of approximately HK$26,909,000 (2004: HK$21,248,000) and 
the weighted average of 650,000,000 (2004: 650,000,000) ordinary shares in 
issue during the Period.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share for the period ended 31 
March 2005 is based on the Group's unaudited net profit from ordinary 
activities attributable to shareholders for the Period of approximately 
HK$26,909,000 (2004: HK$21,248,000) and the weighted average number of 
699,948,427 (2004: 676,769,302) ordinary shares in issue during the 
Period.  The weighted average number of ordinary shares used to calculate 
the diluted earnings per share comprises the weighted average number of 
650,000,000 (2004: 650,000,000) ordinary shares in issue during the Period 
and the weighted average number of 49,948,427 (2004: 26,769,302) ordinary 
shares deemed to be issued at no consideration on exercise of all 
outstanding share options.
