In addition, the company's total order commodity trading volume increased by 4.9% compared to the same period last year, reaching HKD 4.2 billion 35.5 million, and the number of online shopping customers also increased.

The company emphasizes that these losses are necessary investments in long-term growth strategies and innovative product and service development. The Board of Directors reminds shareholders and potential investors not to rely too much on preliminary data and to proceed with caution. The final mid-term performance will be announced on August 23, 2024.
