PRESS RELEASE
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006
NEW YORK, November 26, 2007 — The Board of Directors of China Enterprises Limited (“the Company”) announces the following financial information of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2006: —
| | | | | | |
| | Year ended | | Year ended | | |
| | December 31, 2006 | | December 31, 2005 | | Change +/(-)% |
Revenue | | Nil | | Nil | | N/A |
Operating loss | | Rmb16.8M | | Rmb27.5M | | (38.9)% |
Loss from continuing operations | | Rmb21.2M | | Rmb26.3M | | (19.4)% |
Net loss | | Rmb21.2M | | Rmb26.3M | | (19.4)% |
Net loss per common share | | Rmb2.35 | | Rmb2.92 | | (19.5)% |
Since the Company does not have an operating subsidiary up to the date of this press release, the financial results of the Company in fiscal 2005 and 2006 greatly depended on the share of results of its affiliates, including Hangzhou Zhongce Rubber Co., Ltd. (“Hangzhou”),the tire business and Wing On Travel Holdings Limited (“Wing On”), the travel business.
Operating loss decreased to Rmb16.8 million in 2006 compared to Rmb27.5 million in 2005. This was mainly due to the increase in our administrative expenses during the fiscal year 2005 in relation to certain legal and professional costs incurred on the transaction acquiring the property situated in Shanghai, the PRC, which did not recur in 2006.
For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company recorded a consolidated net loss of Rmb21.2 million, or Rmb2.35 per share. By comparison, the net loss and the net loss per share in 2005 was Rmb26.3 million and Rmb2.92, respectively. The loss for the fiscal year 2006 consisted primarily of a loss upon a decrease in fair value of the call option associated with the convertible note of Wing On totaling Rmb19.5 million, general and administrative expenses amounted Rmb16.8 million, and partially offset with the Company’s share of net profit of Hangzhou and Wing On in an amount of Rmb3.3 million and interest income of Rmb12.3 million.
The Annual General Meeting for the Company will be held in Hong Kong on December 31, 2007. Based on the record date of November 15, 2007, the Company will dispatch a notice of the meeting and a proxy statement to shareholders in due course.
