The Board recommends the payment of a fi nal dividend of HK17 cents per share for year 2010. Business Review In 2010, global economic conditions remained complicated and fast changing. Major developed countries were confronted with various challenges and responded with a range of economic stimulus measures. In November, the United States government announced the launch of the second round of quantitative easing measures (QE2). In emerging markets, economic development was good but governments had to adjust their fiscal and monetary policies to combat problems caused by the influx of short-term speculative funds generated by the developed world’s stimulus measures, particularly to prevent local economic overheating and to control potential risks associated with asset bubbles and inflation. Through interest hikes and a series of increases in the deposit reserve ratio, China has effectively controlled liquidity and investment sentiment in the market, providing the conditions for steady and relatively fast economic growth. Led by the high GDP growth rate of 10.3% in China, economic development in both Hong Kong and Macau was strong in 2010. Following the strong rebound in 2009, the China property market continued to perform well in the first quarter of 2010. The consolidation of property prices at a high level as well as the sharp rise in land prices somewhat affected harmony in the community leading to the launch of stricter tightening measures towards the property sector in April and September 2010, including restrictions on purchases and mortgages in some cities. The China property market was inevitably affected to some extent. But due to a combination of strong economic growth and strong rigid demand, the property market still performed well overall in 2010. The Group achieved a substantial jump in its sales and profit in 2010. Turnover increased by about 18.7% to HK$44.31 billion, and consolidated net profit increased by 66.6% to HK$12.67 billion (11.02 billion yuan). The net profit attributable to shareholders increased by 65.7% to HK$12.37 billion (10.76 billion yuan). The Group recorded net profits of about HK$1.47 billion from three transactions: the disposal of certain interests in 3 projects to a real estate fund; the disposal of the Nanjing Yangtze River II Bridge; and the acquisition of control of China Overseas Grand Oceans Group Limited (formerly known as Shell Electric Mfg.
