• Revenue: +115% (2Q09), NM (1H09)
• Net Profit: -6% (2Q09), +151% (1H09)
• Outlook: Of its operating investments, the Group does not expect a turnaround in futures and foreign exchange broking in the current quarter, and its management is examining ways to strengthen and broaden the business.
• The Group has agreed to support a rights issue at E&O to fund its development plans in Kuala Lumpur and Penang, and to reinforce its ability to take advantage of any opportunities that may arise from market dislocations.
• Given the large risks that still remain, the Group's financial results for the coming quarter and the next year will continue to be significantly dependent on the mark-to-market valuations of its investments.
