Chong Kin Group Holdings Limited provided earnings guidance for the six months ended September 30, 2018. For the period, the company reported based on the preliminary review of the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the six months ended 30 September 2018 and the management's estimate, it is anticipated that the unaudited consolidated profit attributable to the Shareholders for the six months ended 30 September 2018 is expected to decrease substantially by 103.5% as compared to that for the corresponding period in 2017. Based on the information currently available, the expected substantial decrease in the unaudited consolidated profit attributable to the Shareholders was mainly attributable to the following factors: decrease in revenue by roughly 18.2% due to completion of major construction projects in the last financial year in 2017; decrease in gross profit margin by roughly 5.2% due to increase in construction costs and the keen competition in the industry for new construction projects; and increase in finance costs of HKD 3.1 million as a result of a loan in the sum of HKD 125,000,000 advanced by Pioneer Investment Limited bearing the interest rate of 5% per annum.
