1. BASIS OF PREPARATION 1. The condensed consolidated financial statements of Wing On Travel (Holdings) Limited (the Company ) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the Group ) have been prepared in accordance with the applicable disclosure requirements of Appendix 16 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the Listing Rules ) and with Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ( HKICPA ). 34 In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, the directors of the Company have given careful consideration to the future liquidity and going concern of the Group in light of the Group s loss of approximately HK$133,653,000 for the six months ended 30 June 2009 and net current liabilities of approximately HK$346,179,000 at 30 June 2009. The directors of the Company are satisfied that the Group will have sufficient financial resources to meet its financial obligations as they fall due in the foreseeable future, after taking into consideration the completion of the disposal of the entire issued share capital of a subsidiary for HK$833,000,000 in September 2009 (see Note 20(a)). Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. 2. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES 133,653,000 346,179,000 833,000,000 2. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain properties and financial instruments, which are measured at fair value, as appropriate. Except as described below, the accounting policies used in the condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group s annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2008. Wing On Travel (Holdings) Limited Interim Report 2009 7

2. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 2. In the current interim period, the Group has, for the first time, adopted an accounting policy on acquisition of additional interest in subsidiaries. When the Group increases its interest in an entity that is already an entity controlled by the Company, it is accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the controlling interests and minority interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any differences between the amount by which the minority interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid are recognised directly in equity as other reserve. In the current interim period, the Group has applied, for the first time, a number of new and revised standards, amendments and interpretations ( new and revised HKFRSs ) issued by the HKICPA, which are effective for the Group s financial year beginning on 1 January 2009. HKAS 1 (Revised 2007) has introduced a number of terminology changes, including revised titles for the condensed consolidated financial statements, and has resulted in a number of changes in presentation and disclosure. HKFRS 8 is a disclosure standard that requires the identification of operating segments to be performed on the same basis as financial information that is reported internally for the purpose of allocating resources between segments and assessing their performance. The predecessor standard, HKAS 14 Segment Reporting, required the identification of two sets of segments (business and geographical) using a risks and returns approach. In the past, the Group s primary reporting format was business segments. The application of HKFRS 8 has not resulted in a redesignation of the Group s reportable segments as compared with the primary reportable segments determined in accordance with HKAS 14 (see Note 3). The adoption of the new and revised HKFRSs has had no material effect on the reported results and financial position of the Group for the current or prior accounting periods. Accordingly, no prior period adjustment has been recognised. 1 8 14 14 8 8 Wing On Travel (Holdings) Limited Interim Report 2009

2. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 2. The Group has not early applied new and revised standards, amendments or interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective. The adoption of HKFRS 3 (Revised 2008) may affect the Group s accounting for business combination for which the acquisition dates are on or after 1 January 2010. HKAS 27 (Revised 2008) may have other effect on the accounting treatment for changes in the Group s ownership interest in a subsidiary. 3 27 The directors of the Company anticipate that the application of other new and revised standards, amendments or interpretations will have no material impact on the results and the financial position of the Group. 3. SEGMENT INFORMATION 3. The Group has adopted HKFRS 8 Operating Segments with effect from 1 January 2009. HKFRS 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to segments and to assess their performance. In contrast, the predecessor standard (HKAS 14, Segment Reporting ) required an entity to identify two sets of segments (business and geographical) using a risks and returns approach, with the entity s system of internal financial reporting to key management personnel serving only as the starting point for the identification of such segments. In the past, the Group s primary reporting format was business segments. The application of HKFRS 8 has not resulted in a redesignation of the Group s reportable segments as compared with the primary reportable segments determined in accordance with HKAS 14. Nor has the adoption of HKFRS 8 changed the basis of measurement of segment profit or loss. 8 8 14 14 8 8 The Group is currently organised into four operating divisions travel and related services, hotel and leisure services, luxury train services, and securities trading. The information reported to the Group s chief operating decision maker (i.e. Executive Directors) for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of performance is focused on these operating divisions.

Management Discussion and Analysis REVIEW OF OPERATIONS After a dismal first quarter, Hong Kong s overall economic situation showed clear signs of improvements in the second quarter. The domestic markets have benefited from the relative stabilised global economic environment, and particularly, the revival in the Mainland s growth momentum. Local consumer sentiments were supported by a relatively stable labour market, the rebounds in the stock and housing markets, as well as the Government s relief measures. On the other hand, the spread of human swine flu had weighed heavily on tourism industry, thereby dragging down the recovering travel business on both business and leisure segment. On a seasonally adjusted quarterto-quarter comparison, Gross Domestic Product rebounded by 3.3% in real terms in the second quarter, ending the contraction in the preceding four quarters. The second quarter saw the global economy stabilising somewhat following the strong policy actions taken by governments around the world in restoring financial sector health and supporting aggregate demand. 3.3% The results of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2009 were adversely affected by the 2008 financial tsunami and the pandemic of human swine flu in May. The Group attained a turnover of HK$883.2 million for the six months ended 30 June 2009, represented a decrease of 17.4% as compared to the HK$1,068.8 million for the six months ended 30 June 2008. Gross profit for the period was HK$160.1 million, worse off by 18.3% compared with the corresponding period of last year. Loss for the period was HK$133.7 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2008: HK$94.2 million) resulted from after charging administrative expenses of HK$189.5 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2008: HK$175.0 million); finance costs of HK$48.6 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2008: HK$68.5 million); loss on disposal of available-for-sale investments of HK$39.4 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2008: Nil); share of loss of associates of HK$26.6 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2008: HK$43.4 million); and after crediting an increase in fair value of investment properties in the PRC of HK$31.2 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2008: HK$0.3 million). 883,200,000 1,068,800,000 17.4% 160,100,000 18.3% 133,700,000 94,200,000 189,500,000 175,000,000 48,600,000 68,500,000 39,400,000 26,600,000 43,400,000 31,200,000 300,000 36 Wing On Travel (Holdings) Limited Interim Report 2009

Management Discussion and Analysis During the period, the Group has disposed of certain of its nonperforming available-for-sale investments mainly in the PRC and recorded losses in aggregate of HK$39.4 million. The share of loss in associates came mainly from the loss on disposal of certain underperformed investments located in the Mainland by the Group s associates during the period under review. SEGMENT RESULTS Travel and Related Services Travel and related services of the Group comprise mainly outbound tours, air ticketing and air/hotel packages. Affected by the financial tsunami and human swine flu, turnover of this segment was HK$764.8 million and represented a decrease of 17.2% from the HK$924.2 million in 2008. No further impairment provision is required to be made in the reviewed period in respect of the goodwill attributable to the Group s travel operation in the PRC as in last year. Coupled with the effect on savings in advertising expenses, segment profit for the first six months of the year bounced to HK$18.6 million from the HK$1.7 million for the same period in 2008. Hotel and Leisure Services The three Rosedale branded 4-star rated hotels, the Times Plaza Hotel, Shenyang, the Luoyang Golden Gulf Hotel and the Square Inn budget hotel chain comprise the hotel and leisure business of the Group. Turnover decreased by 18.1% to HK$118.4 million for the six months ended 30 June 2009 (for the six months ended 30 June 2008: HK$144.6 million) due to the adverse effect of financial tsunami and the spread of human swine flu in May and June 2009. The segment resulted a loss of HK$18.3 million versus a profit of HK$14.7 million for the six months ended 30 June 2008.
