Grand Vision Media Holdings plc - Half-year Report

PR Newswire

London, 8 March 2022

GRAND VISION MEDIA HOLDINGS PLC (“THE GROUP”)

Half yearly report for the six months ended 30 June 2021

The CEO’s Report

Overview

The disappointing full year results for 2020 have continued into the first half of 2021. Whilst the core business has suffered badly from the ongoing business disruption and uncertainty caused by the pandemic in the region, the Group has been focussing on generating new revenue streams to bolster revenues. It is hoped that these new revenue streams will come to fruition in 2022 onwards.

Summary of Trading Results

Revenue in the period was HKD1,742K [1H2019 : HKD6,045K], which represents a significant decline as compared to the prior year period. The Group had a loss after tax of HKD3,335K [1H2019 : HKD664K loss]. This was primarily as a result of the reduced turnover resulting from the ongoing business disruption. To mitigate against this, the Group has managed to achieve cost savings as a result of space consolidation and headcount reductions, and has taken advantage of Government fiscal support aimed at helping businesses through the pandemic whenever this was available. However, this did not prevent the overall poor Group performance as reported.

Cash in hand at the period end was HK$490K. The Group continues to manage its cash within its available resources.

Outlook

The Group has suffered enormously from the business disruption and uncertainty caused by the pandemic, and particularly more so as Hong Kong/China have been following a strict zero COVID policy. The full year results for 2021 are expected to be well below historic levels again, but the Group remains committed to sourcing new revenue streams to mitigate against the decline in traditional revenues.
