Centron Telecom was not engaged in any fund-raising activities until the end of 2009. By the end of 2009, our Group obtained a RMB60 million loan from a domestic bank to fund business expansion in the first half of 2010. It is in line with our plan that our Group secured a three-year loan of approximately HK$335 million in July 2010, so that in terms of capital, we are well-prepared to fit into the timetable of the mobile communication network development and coverage optimisation plans of the three major telecom companies in China, as well as that of our upcoming launches of new products and services.
Revenue of Centron Telecom in 2008 was RMB0.8 billion and RMB1.1 billion in 2009. The HK$335 million loan secured in 2010 will be a strong positive support for our growth in business."
