Revenue for the Period increased by 19% year on year to approximately HK$735 million from HK$619 million for the same period of last year.

Profit attributable to owners of the Company surged by 145% from approximately HK$122 million to HK$298 million. Basic earnings per share were HK30.6 cents. The Board of Directors has resolved not to recommend the payment of an interim dividend for the six months ended 30 September 2022.

The Company repurchased 8,479,171 shares on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited from 29 June to 30 September 2022, with a total consideration of approximately HK$26 million. The Board believes that the share price has failed to reflect the value of the Company, and the share buyback can both i) return capital to investors, and ii) enhance the shareholders' value. Commenting on the interim results of the Group, Mr. Fang Yan Tak, Douglas, Chairman of Yeebo, said, "The Group strategically focused on the higher value, wholly customized product segments, which in turn delivered robust growth. Capitalizing on our strong product development capability and extensive experience in display panel manufacturing, we are well positioned for the continued product diversification. We aspire to be one-stop solution provider on a broad portfolio of monochromic and color displays and modules over a wide range of applications. While we continue to service over 300 active customers across different industries, we are equally as driven in identifying emerging opportunities in the new and fast-growing sectors." Although the overall demand for electronic components has been volatile, the Group registered impressive growth in both sales and earnings in the Period. Sales of LCD modules ("LCM") increased by 31% year on year to HK$516 million on the back of the strong demand from such industries as telecommunications, industrial control devices, medical and health care products and smart home appliances.
