15、any and its subsidiaries(the“Group”)for the six months ended 30 September 2024(“First Half of Financial Year 2025”).MARKET REVIEWThe global economic landscape has shown a complex recovery trajectory following the post-pandemic period.While the initial rebound was robust,several challenges remained i
16、n place that have tempered the recovery progress.Rising tensions between major economies have led to increased trade barriers.Brand customers have been reassessing their purchasing strategies,often resulting in an increased shift in procurement to South East Asian countries.Prolonged international c
17、onflicts and geopolitical conflicts led to fluctuating commodity prices and have further complicated recovery efforts.The navigation of the delicate balance in curbing inflation and a slightly later-than-expected interest rate cut have led to cautionary spending patterns in the First Half of Financi
18、al Year 2025.In the First Half of Financial Year 2025,export values from the Peoples Republic of China(“Mainland China”)saw a small increase of 4.9%,while Vietnam experienced an increase of 14.7%.Mainland Chinas export value of knitwear including knitted and crocheted products increased slightly by
19、2.2%,while Vietnams export value of textiles and garments increased by 8.2%.Although the downward trajectory in interest rate cuts and stimulus measures have boosted sentiment momentarily,yet the geopolitical conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East and the presidential election in the United States
20、 of America(“USA”)may have profound impacts on economic conditions and societal dynamics.Trade tensions undoubtedly remain and persistently raises concerns in discretionary spending and optimism towards recovery.The Groups performance has demonstrated strong resilience even during challenging times
21、in the past few years,and this is exemplary of our endeavour in being adaptive to changing market dynamics.As orders continue to shift to South East Asian countries,our timely strategic investment in increasing capacity in Central Vietnam has proven to be beneficial to the Groups development.This de
22、velopment has allowed us to not only meet the changing demands of the market,but also to maintain our sales volume for knitwear products in the First Half of Financial Year 2025.This outcome reflects our agility in adapting to shifts in the supply chain and reinforces our commitment to delivering hi
23、gh-quality products to our customers as a preferred supplier.We have also placed a strong focus on maintaining a diversified customer portfolio across various regions to reduce business risks.By prioritising internal operational efficiency and enhancing customer service,we have effectively positione
24、d ourselves to respond to market demands.Our commitment to fostering a supply hub around our facilities demonstrates our proactive approach,ensuring we meet client needs promptly and reliably.These strategic initiatives have culminated in our achievement of record-high half-year profitability,highli
25、ghting the effectiveness of our efforts in navigating the complexities of the current business landscape.NAMESON HOLDINGS LIMITED/INTERIM REPORT 20256CHAIRMANS STATEMENT(CONTINUED)BUSINESS REVIEWWe have dedicated significant effort in finding an equilibrium between orders and pricing,as well as expa
26、nsion and control.We managed to achieve a modest growth in the Groups revenue,with improved profitability and margins.This demonstrates our ability to navigate challenges while enhancing our operational efficiency and financial health,positioning us for sustainable growth in the future.The Group ini
27、tiated its production capacity expansion in Vietnam in the previous year,effectively counterbalancing the softer order volumes being allocated to Mainland China for production.By prioritising shorter lead times,leveraging our proximity to supplies and enhancing logistics,we are able to fulfill more
28、orders when needed,while placing focus on maintaining healthy profit margins.This adaptability is underpinned by the strong mutual trust we have established with our customers,as well as the familiarity our staff have with streamlined workflows.These elements collectively contribute to our operation
29、al resilience and ability to respond swiftly to market demands.In the First Half of Financial Year 2025,the sales volume of our mens and womens knitwear decreased by 5.3%to 18.0 million pieces.This decline was partly attributed to a softer economic recovery in Mainland China and global markets affec
30、ting discretionary consumer spending,resulting in more cautious order placements from customers compared to initial expectations.Additionally,delayed seasonal transitions contributed to this slight decrease.Despite an overall reduction in raw material prices,which led to lower like-for-like average
31、selling prices,the blended average selling price remained stable due to an increase in the sales of cashmere products.Consequently,revenue for our mens and womens knitwear fell slightly by 5.0%to HK$2,142.5 million.The Groups total revenue increased by 2.2%to HK$2,786.2 million,contributed by an inc
32、rease in both the cashmere yarn sales and fabrics businesses.The Groups gross profit and gross profit margin improved compared to the same period last year.Selling and distribution expenses,together with general and administrative expenses in aggregate remained fairly stable as a proportion to reven
33、ue.The Group recorded a 57.5%lower net gains on disposals of property,plant and equipment in the First Half of Financial Year 2025,yet the Groups operating profit still recorded a 5.0%increase to HK$390.4 million,and a record-high half-year net profit for the period of HK$312.8 million,a 2.4%increas
34、e against the same period last year.Given the Groups consistent commitment to prudent cash management,strong cash flow,and healthy gearing ratio,the Board is pleased to declare an interim dividend of 9.8 HK cents per share to the Companys shareholders representing a payout ratio of 75%,as a gesture
35、of appreciation for our shareholders consistent trust and support.NAMESON HOLDINGS LIMITED/INTERIM REPORT 20257CHAIRMANS STATEMENT(CONTINUED)FUTURE STRATEGIES AND PROSPECTSThe outcome in the new administration from the presidential election in the USA is pivotal to global trade,policies,partnerships
36、,and the global economy.On the other hand,common expectations on further interest rate cuts may provide some stimulus to economic recovery.The dynamics point to a complex interplay of caution amongst brand customers in their procurement strategies,while the recovery pace of Mainland China and global
37、 consumption remains uncertain.Nevertheless,Vietnam has increasingly become a preferred destination for manufacturing due to its competitive costs,improving infrastructure and trade arrangements.Its strategic location has benefited when Bangladesh protests had disrupted its manufacturing progress.Ou
38、r strategic decision to expand the manufacturing facilities in Central Vietnam is set to benefit the Group in the coming years.With the support of quality suppliers,Vietnam has established itself as a key supply and manufacturing hub for numerous global brands.The Group is exceptionally well-positio
39、ned to capitalise on greater opportunities with international clients.Our ongoing commitment to improvement and product quality facilitates negotiations with new customers,and we are confident in our ability to diversify our customer portfolio,driving more profitable business and returns for the Gro
40、up.By moving early to develop our upstream cashmere yarn business,we have been expanding the business with increasing sales to satisfy both external customers and internal usage.With distinct advantages in creating sustainable materials that offer complete traceability,our cashmere yarn business is
41、making a positive contribution to the Group as anticipated.Driven by demand,we are going to shift part of this business to Vietnam as a first-mover and are highly confident that it will continue to deliver positive results for the Group.As demand for fabric increases,we recognise the significant pot
42、ential in Vietnams growing need for raw materials.We are confident that we will be well-positioned to continue to benefit when the business continues to ramp up.Meanwhile,as we immerse ourselves in the business,we remain vigilant in using existing resources and exploring more opportunities that alig
43、n with the current market demand.For instance,we have established a collaboration for fabric printing.We are confident that we will successfully navigate the value chain and gradually establish ourselves as a key raw material solutions provider in Vietnam.Our adaptable management approach has streng
44、thened the Groups resilience to challenges and refined our skills to pursue even greater excellence.NAMESON HOLDINGS LIMITED/INTERIM REPORT 20258CHAIRMANS STATEMENT(CONTINUED)We will remain open-minded in pursuing additional breakthroughs in innovation,lean manufacturing,and digitisation as appropri
45、ate.Our commitment to enhancing product design will focus on functionality and material development,ensuring we meet the diverse and rapidly changing preferences of customers in the end market.In the face of ongoing uncertainty,particularly due to persistent geopolitical conflicts,the management ado
46、pts a fluid and flexible approach to business operations.While maintaining a strong emphasis on enhancing our core activities,the Group will seek opportunities to broaden and diversify its business.Our long-term commitment remains focused on delivering greater returns to our shareholders.I would her
47、eby like to express my heartfelt gratitude to our customers,suppliers,shareholders and staff for their steadfast support and trust in our Group,as well as for their contributions and efforts towards our Groups continuous development.Wong Wai Yue,MHChairman and Executive Director22 November 2024NAMES

55、ashmere yarns and fabrics,while the total sales revenue of mens and womens knitwear products for the six months ended 30 September 2024 decreased by HK$112.5 million to HK$2,142.5 million as compared to the corresponding period in year 2023.For the six months ended 30 September 2024,the sales revenu
56、e of cashmere yarns increased by HK$88.5 million to HK$418.5 million as compared to the corresponding period in year 2023.The decrease in the total sales revenue of mens and womens knitwear products was due to the decrease in sales volume.The Groups sales volume of mens and womens knitwear products

112、 September 2024,the Group had outstanding HK$interest rate swap contracts with a total notional principal amount of HK$123.5 million(31 March 2024:HK$130.0 million).Financial Risk Management(a)Foreign Currency RiskThe Group mainly operates in Hong Kong,Mainland China and Vietnam with majority of the
113、 transactions settled in HK$,RMB and US$.Foreign currency risk arises when future business transactions or recognised assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entitys functional currency.The Groups foreign currency risk exposure is primarily with respect to RMB and US$sinc
114、e a considerable portion of our operating expenses are denominated in RMB while most of the sales are denominated in US$.As HK$is pegged with US$,the foreign currency risk exposure in respect of US$is considered minimal.During the six months ended 30 September 2024,the Group did not enter into any f
115、orward foreign currency contracts to mitigate its exposures of RMB against US$.The Board will continue to closely monitor the Groups foreign currency risk exposure and may use appropriate financial instruments for hedging purposes as and when necessary.(b)Interest Rate RiskThe Groups interest rate r
116、isk arises primarily from bank borrowings.Bank borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk and bank borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk.During the six months ended 30 September 2024,the Group entered into HK$inte
117、rest rate swap contracts to mitigate some of its interest rate risk in light of the market interest rate hike during the period.The Board will continue to closely monitor the Groups loan portfolio in order to manage the Groups interest rate risk exposure and may use appropriate financial instruments
118、 for hedging purposes as and when necessary.(c)Credit RiskThe Group has policies in place to ensure that sales on credit are made to customers with an appropriate credit history and the Group also performs credit assessments of its customers on a periodic basis,taking into account their financial po
119、sition,past payment records,economic environments in which the customers operate in and other relevant factors.The Group has not experienced and does not expect to experience any material impairment on trade receivables and receivables from other counterparties.As at 30 September 2024,majority of th
120、e Groups bank balances and deposits were held with major financial institutions in Hong Kong,Mainland China and Vietnam which the Directors believe are of high credit quality.The Directors do not expect any losses arising from the non-performance by these financial institutions.(d)Liquidity RiskLiqu
121、idity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities.The Group utilises cash flow forecast and other relevant information to monitor its liquidity requirements and to ensure the Group has sufficient cash and cash equivalents and
122、 banking facilities to support its business and operational activities.The Group has not experienced and does not expect to experience any difficulties in meeting credit obligations when they fall due.NAMESON HOLDINGS LIMITED/INTERIM REPORT 202518MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS(CONTINUED)Human Re

124、olument policies are formulated based on the performance and experience of individual employee and in line with the salary trends in Mainland China,Vietnam and Hong Kong.Other employee benefits include performance related bonuses,insurance and medical coverage and share options.Since human resources

126、me,different on-the-job training will be provided to employees in order to ensure continuous staff development and skills upgrading.Remuneration PolicyThe Directors and senior management of the Group receive compensation in the form of salaries and discretionary bonuses related to the performance of

253、ces at the balance sheet date.A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange,dealer,broker,industry group,pricing service,or regulatory agency,and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arms length basis.T
254、he quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price.These instruments are included in level 1.(b)Financial instruments in level 2The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market(for example,over-the-counter derivatives)is determi
255、ned by using valuation techniques.These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates.If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable,the instrument is included in level
256、2.(c)Financial instruments in level 3If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data,the instrument is included in level 3.Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:Quotedmarketpricesordealerquotesforsimilarinstruments.Othertechniques,s

258、contract which is not an observable input.Management estimates the fair value based on the latest policy monthly statement of the key management insurance contract provided by the insurance company.The unobservable input is the cash surrender value quoted by the insurance company according to the ke
259、y management insurance contract.When the cash surrender value is higher,the fair value of the key management insurance will be higher.NAMESON HOLDINGS LIMITED/INTERIM REPORT 202539NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION(CONTINUED)5 SEGMENT INFORMATIONThe Groups operating se
