Analysis · NCI · Manufacturing
A HKD2.0 million profit a year ago has flipped to a HKD9.1 million (USD1.16 million) loss for the first half, as selling, general and administrative costs jumped 40% to HKD33 million while revenue slipped 7.3% to HKD55.8 million. Operations consumed HKD44.8 million of cash in the period, and liquidity held only because of the February 2026 equity raise (HKD58 million net) and heavy related-party funding. With a reverse split approved on October 29 and a fresh US$1.32 million placement priced at US$0.30 on October 27, the loss underscores why the company keeps raising capital at declining prices.
