Profit from continuing business operations was significantly lower, mainly due to a sharp decline in the contribution made by our special steel business in the second half of the year. The weak demand for steel products resulted in loss-making for many steel producers in China. However, the fact that our special steel business was profitable for the year is an indication of the strength of this business. Profits from our mainland property business were also ”lower in comparison with last year. In addition to slowing property sales, the decline in profit was also due to adjusting the pace of our development to match the current market conditions. The hard truth is that both steel and property in mainland China were affected by the macroeconomic environment. While these While the past year was filled two businesses did less well, other businesses with challenges, for CITIC Pacific such as energy, Hong Kong property and tunnels it was also a year of progress and as well as Dah Chong Hong and CITIC Telecom long-term promise. performed satisfactorily and continued to contribute steadily to our profit and cash flow.
