TIDMYGH RNS Number : 3703Z Yinggao Holdings PLC 21 September 2009 ? Yinggao Holdings plc ("the Company") Interim Results The Company is pleased to announce its results for the 6 month period ended 30 June 2009. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS The group made a profit after tax of US$965,000 during the six months to 30 June 2009 on total revenues of US$8.5 million. Total revenues increased by 35% for the first six months of 2009 compared to the first six months of 2008 (H1 2008: US$6.3 million). Gross profit for the period was US$2.7 million, an increase of 16.6% compared to the first six months of 2008 (H1 2008: US$2.3 million). Administrative expenses increased by a modest 7% to US$1.5 million (H12008: US$1.4 million). This increase is relatively insignificant in the context of the group's increased level of activity, and was also partly a result of the depreciation cost amounting to US$0.94 million compared to US$0.11 million in the same period last year. Earnings per share increased to US$0.03 (H1 2008: US$0.01). BUSINESS REVIEW Review of Container Terminal Business For the six months ended 30 June 2009, Keen Chance Terminal reported total revenues of US$6.9 million compared to US$5.5 million for H1 2008, an increase of 25%. This was achieved despite the continuing difficult economic climate in our business, and reflects the conservative expectations of management. Nevertheless, despite an increase in overall throughput, the profit margin decreased by 0.9%, due to an increase in turnover of 18% offset by an increase in operating cost and general and administrative expenses of 20% and 26% respectively. Excluding the loan interest paid to Arko Terminal Limited, there was an increase of 27% in profit compared to the same period of last year generated from the container terminal operation.The Keen Chance businesses generated a period end cash balance of US$0.26 million, amounting to a 63% increase compared with the H1 2008 period end cash balance of US$0.16 million. Overall, the Board is very encouraged by the results from the terminal operation. Review of Barging Service Business During the six months ended 30 June 2009, the company through its subsidiary, Yinggao Shipping (H.K.) Limited., operated seven river trade vessels which contributed revenue of US$1.7million (H1 2008: US$0.9 million) to the group, representing a 89% increase compared to the same period of last year. The operating margin has increased from 6.5% in H1 2008 to 12.7% in H1 2009 as a result of an improvement in the carrying capacity of the vessels driving operational efficiency. DISPOSAL OF EQUITY INTEREST IN LONG PROSPERITY INDUSTRIAL LIMITED An announcement was made on 9 September 2009 by the company in relation to the disposal of its equity interest in Long Prosperity Industrial Limited ("LPIL"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the company, which owns a 59.2% stake in Changzhou Power Development Company Limited ("CZPD"), which operated the now-closed coal-fired power plant in Hubei province, China. This sale was to a related company, Winko Foundation Limited ("WFL"). It was reported to the shareholders that the result of the sale of the shares in LPIL to WFL is that the liabilities that currently sit in LPIL and its subsidiary CZPD will thereafter be outside the group and the group's consolidated accounts will have significant liabilities removed from them. OUTLOOK The group results for the first half of the year are in line with the management's expectations. Although the increased cost in wages was offset by operating efficiencies and other cost savings, we shall endeavour to further reduce operating costs so as to increase our profit margin by the end of the year. During the second half of 2009, the group will continue building its business and focus on its strengths to achieve its targets in cost control and increasing competitiveness of its fleet and terminal operation. The extension of the adjacent quay is near to completion and we expect to start operation by the end of the year, which should coincide with the commencement of operation of the brand new 45 tonne quayside container crane. The Board is confident that the growth rate in the annual throughput will be satisfactory and the container terminal business will continue playing an important role in the group's revenue streams. The weaker economic situation, however, has impacted our barging service business. Despite a growth in turnover of Yinggao Shipping (H.K.) Limited in the first half year of 2009, income per vessel has reduced. Insufficiency of carrying cargo per vessel will no doubt increase the operating costs and result in a decrease in profit margin. As the recent recovery in global markets remains fragile it is difficult to predict the timing and extent of a return to growth in trade, on which our business depends. Nevertheless, having reviewed the forecast we made at the beginning of the year, we regard the group performance in the first half of the year to be satisfactory. The Board, therefore, remains optimistic about the group's prospects for the full year. RETIREMENT OF THE CHAIRMAN Last but not least I would like to thank our shareholders, business partners, customers, directors and employees for their continuing support to Yinggao. Since the group has now reached a stable stage and its business has maintained steady growth over the past few years, I have decided to step down from the board and retire upon the publication of these interim results. I wish the group continued success in the second half of 2009 and I believe Angela Leung, one of our executive directors, will prove a very capable successor as Chairman.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2009 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the group for the year ended 31 December 2008, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") as adopted for use in the European Union ("EU"). EU-endorsed IFRSs may differ from IFRSs, as issued by the International Accounting Standards' Board ("IASB") if, at any point in time, new or amended IFRSs have not been endorsed by the EU. At 30 June 2009, there were no unendorsed standards effective for the period ended 30 June 2009 affecting these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, and there was no difference between IFRSs endorsed by the EU and IFRSs issued by the IASB in terms of their application to Yinggao Holdings Plc.

The accounting policies and methods of computation used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2008 except for the adoption of standards, amendments and interpretations issued by the IASB mandatory for annual financial year beginning 1 January 2009. For the period ended 30 June 2009, the group have adopted the following new and revised standards, amendment, or interpretations that have been issued. +-----------------------+-----------------------+----------------------+ | | | Effective for | | | | accounting | | | | periods beginning | | | | on or after | +-----------------------+-----------------------+----------------------+ | IFRS 8 | Operating segments | 1 January 2009 | +-----------------------+-----------------------+----------------------+ | | | | +-----------------------+-----------------------+----------------------+ | IAS 1 (revised 2007) | Presentation of | 1 January 2009 | | | financial | | | | statements | | +-----------------------+-----------------------+----------------------+ NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) For the period ended 30 June 2009 (b) Significant accounting policies (Continued) IFRS8 "Operating segments" (see note 3) is a disclosure standard that has resulted in a redesignation of the group's reportable segments, but has had no impact on the reported results or financial position of the group. IAS1 "Presentation of financial statements (revised 2007)" has introduced a number of terminology changes (including revised titles for the condensed consolidated financial statements) and has resulted in a number of changes in presentation and disclosure. However, IAS1 (revised 2007) has had no impact on the reported results or financial position of the group.(c) Possible impact of amendments, new standards and
interpretations issued but not yet effective for the six months ended 30 June 2009 The group has not early adopted the following new and revised standards, amendment, or interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for current accounting period. The group is in the process of making an assessment of what the impact of these amendments, new standards and new interpretations is expected to be in the period of initial application. The directors anticipate that the adoption of these Standards and Interpretations as appropriate in future periods will have no material impact on the financial statements of the group when the relevant standards come into effect for periods commencing on or after 1 July 2009. · IFRS 1 Revised IFRS 1 First-time adoption of IFRS · IFRS 2 Share-based payments - Amendment, vesting conditions and cancellations · IFRS 3 Business combinations - Comprehensive revision on applying the acquisition method · IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sales and Discontinued Operations - amendments · IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures - Amendment; Reclassification of Financial Assets · IAS 23 Borrowing Costs - Comprehensive revision to prohibit immediate expensing · IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements - Amendments arising from IFRS3 · IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements - Amendment; Cost of an investment in a subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or associate (d) Use of estimates and assumptions The preparation of financial information requires the use of estimates and assumptions about future conditions. The use of available information and the application of judgement are inherent in the formation of estimates. Actual results in the future may differ from those reported as a result of the use of estimates and assumptions about future conditions. Management believes that the Company's critical accounting estimates involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity with those assumptions and estimates mainly relate to the impairment of loans and advances, the goodwill impairment and the valuation of financial instruments. (e) Consolidation The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Yinggao Holdings Plc comprise the financial statements of Yinggao Holdings Plc. and its subsidiaries.

(2008 : Nil) Subsidiaries operating in the PRC are subject to Enterprise Income Tax ('EIT') at a rate of 18%. However, certain subsidiaries are subject to tax holidays from the local tax authorities under income tax law. Others had tax losses brought forward from previous years. On 16 March 2007, the National People's Congress passed the Corporate Income Tax Law of the PRC (the "new tax law"). Under the new tax law, the statutory income tax rate applicable to the company's subsidiaries in Guangzhou is changed from 15% to 25% progressively within five years from 1 January 2008 (2008: 18%; 2009: 20%; 2010: 22%; 2011: 25%). The new tax law has been applied when measuring the group's current tax payable as at 30 June 2009.. No deferred tax is recognised on the unremitted earnings of the overseas subsidiaries, as no dividend payments due to UK parent company are expected to be made in the foreseeable future. 5. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the periods/year ended 30 June 2009, 30 June 2008 and 31 December 2008. +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | | (Unaudited) | | (Audited) | +------------------------------+----------------------------------+--+---------------+ | | Six months ended | | Year ended | | | 30 June | | 31 December | +------------------------------+----------------------------------+--+---------------+ | | 2009 | | 2008 | | 2008 | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | Continuing operations: | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | Profit attributable to | 510 | | 117 | | 360 | | | equity | | | | | | | | holders of the parent (US$ | | | | | | | | '000) | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | Weighted average number of | 1,978,895,139 | | 1,978,895,139 | | 1,978,895,139 | | | shares in | | | | | | | | issue | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | Earnings per share | 0.03 | | 0.01 | | 0.02 | | | (Basic and diluted) (US | | | | | | | | cents) | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | Continuing and discontinued | | | | | | | | operations: | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | Profit attributable to | 510 | | 117 | | 360 | | | equity | | | | | | | | holders of the parent (US$ | | | | | | | | '000) | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | Weighted average number of | 1,978,895,139 | | 1,978,895,139 | | 1,978,895,139 | | | shares in | | | | | | | | issue | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ | Earnings per share | 0.03 | | 0.01 | | 0.02 | | | (Basic and diluted) (US | | | | | | | | cents) | | | | | | | +------------------------------+---------------+--+---------------+--+---------------+--+ 6.

INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARIES (CONTINUED) The 40% equity interest in Keen Chance Terminal (GZ) company Limited ("KCT") previously held by Keen Lloyd Energy Limited ("KLEL"), a subsidiary of Keen Lloyd Holdings Limited ("KLHL"), has been transferred to ATL. The transfer has been submitted for registration to the relevant PRC authorities. Pursuant to an agreement dated 5 April 2002 entered into between KLEL and Miaotou Economic Development company Limited ("MEDCL"), (a shareholder of KCT who held a 30% equity interest in KCT), MEDCL agreed to vote in accordance with the instructions of KLEL at board meetings in view of its indebtedness to KLEL, for an approximate sum of RMB78 million (equivalent to US$9.4 million), and KLEL intended to convert the outstanding loan into registered capital of KCT. On 22 April 2003, KLEL entered into a shareholder agreement with MEDCL and Harbour Economic Development company Limited ("HEDCL"), another shareholder in KCT, whereby all parties agreed that MEDCL has unconditionally transferred the authority empowered to its directors representative (including their rights and obligations) to KLEL until KLEL transferred the 40% equity interests in KCL to ATL to reiterate the aforesaid agreement dated 5 April 2002. On 16 May 2003, a supplemental agreement was entered into between ATL, KLEL, MEDCL and HEDCL by which all parties agreed that the above authority transferred to KLEL would be vested in ATL after KLEL completed the transfer of equity interests in KCT to ATL. In accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the above agreements, KLEL effectively controls the board of KCT and this arrangement has been confirmed by the shareholders of KCT. In 2002, a Hong Kong lawyer expressed his view that KCT is a subsidiary of KLEL under Hong Kong company Law. Control of KLEL has been transferred to ATL and therefore in the opinion of the directors, KCT is a subsidiary of ATL under the Companies Act 1985. KCT will be a legal subsidiary of ATL immediately upon the registration of the transfer of the 40% of equity in KCT from KLEL to ATL. During the second half of 2007, pursuant to an agreement signed with the Hubei Provincial Economic Committee Bureau, Suizhou City Government and the Hubei Provincial Electricity Co., Ltd. on 30 June 2007, the power plant factory of Changzhou Power Development Company Limited has been ordered to close down its operation from July 2007 onwards owing to the macroeconomic and administrative measures imposed by the order of State Council to clear off those ineffective coal-fired power plants in Hubei Province. +--------------------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ | 10.share capital | | +--------------------------------------------------+------------------------------+ | | Number | GBP | +--------------------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ | Authorised: | | Ordinary shares of 0.5p each | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | At 30 June 2009, 31 December 2008 and 30 June | 30,000,000,000 | 150,000,000 | | 2008 | | | +--------------------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ | | | | +--------------------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ | Equivalent to: | | US$ | | | | 265,395,280 | +--------------------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ | | | | +--------------------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ | Allotted, called up and fully paid: | | Ordinary shares of 0.5p each | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | At 30 June 2009, 31 December 2008 and 30 June | 1,978,895,139 | US$ | | 2008 | | 14,921,520 | +--------------------------------------------------+----------------+-------------+ 11.OPERATING LEASE COMMITMENTS At 30 June 2009, the group had total commitments in respect of land and building and berth charge under operating leases: +--------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | | (Unaudited) | | (Audited) | +--------------------------------------------+----------------------------+--+--------------+ | | Six months ended | | Year ended | | | 30 June | | 31 December | +--------------------------------------------+----------------------------+--+--------------+ | | 2009 | | 2008 | | 2008 | | +--------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | | USD'000 | | USD'000 | | USD'000 | | +--------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | Leases | | | | | | | | which | | | | | | | | expire: | | | | | | | +--------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | - | 405 | | 181 | | 354 | | | in | | | | | | | | the | | | | | | | | next | | | | | | | | year | | | | | | | +--------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | - | 466 | | 299 | | 1,089 | | | in | | | | | | | | the | | | | | | | | second | | | | | | | | to | | | | | | | | fifth | | | | | | | | years | | | | | | | +--------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | | 871 | | 480 | | 1,443 | | +--------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | | | | | | - | | +--------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ 12. CAPITAL COMMITMENTS Capital commitments outstanding at 30 June 2009 in respect of the acquisition of a set of quayside container crane from a non-related supplier in the financial statements were as follows: +-------------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | | (Unaudited) | | (Audited) | +-------------------------------------------------+----------------------------+--+--------------+ | | Six months ended | | Year ended | | | 30 June | | 31 December | +-------------------------------------------------+----------------------------+--+--------------+ | | 2009 | | 2008 | | 2008 | | +-------------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | | USD'000 | | USD'000 | | USD'000 | | +-------------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | Contracted, | 1,227 | | 6,898 | | 740 | | | but not | | | | | | | | provided | | | | | | | | for | | | | | | | +-------------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ | | | | | | - | | +-------------------------------------------------+------------+--+------------+--+--------------+----------+ 13.CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (a) On 23 July 1998, a subsidiary of the company, Keen Chance Terminal (GZ) Company Limited ("KCT"), gave a guarantee for RMB50 million (equivalent to approximately US$5.9 million) in favour of the Huangpu Branch of the Industry and Commercial Bank of China for banking facilities granted to Harbour Economic Development Company Limited ("HEDCL"), a fellow investor in KCT and its ultimate controlling party, Guangzhou Huangpu Foreign Trade group Company Limited and secured over their equity interests in KCT. HEDCL was unable to repay the loans due to the bank. The bank took action against KCT to enforce the guarantee for the outstanding loan. (b) On 9 November 1999, KCT gave a guarantee for RMB18 million (equivalent to approximately US$2.1 million) in favour of Nangang Rural Credit Co-operation Bank for banking facilities granted to Miaotou Economic Development Company Limited ("MEDCL"), a fellow investor in KCT, secured over its equity interests in KCT. MEDCL was unable to repay the outstanding loan. On 27 September 2001, the Guangzhou Law Court delivered an order and notice that the guarantees above were invalid and MEDCL's equity interest in KCT was frozen. Based on legal advice, the equity interests had no material impact on the operations of KCT and the directors consider that no provision is required. KCT maintains that the guarantee given was invalid on the following grounds: (1) such guarantee did not have approval from the board of directors of KCT; (2) in accordance with the law of the Peoples Republic of China, the board of directors and the management of KCT cannot give KCT's properties for guarantee to its shareholder; and (3) the controlling party of HEDCL has not held a valid business licence since 1998 and ceased operations in 1999. In accordance with the banking regulations of the Peoples Republic of China, the bank cannot lend money to enterprises which do not have a valid business licence. The legal proceedings are still in progress. Based on legal advice, the directors are of the opinion that, the loan agreement was void because it was illegal and accordingly, the guarantee contract was also invalid. Furthermore, Keen Lloyd Holdings Limited, the company's parent company, has indemnified the group against any loss KCT will suffer should the guarantee be enforceable. Accordingly, the directors are of the opinion that no provision should be made in the financial statements for any possible claim from the bank in respect of the litigation. (c)Following the closure of the power plant on 30 June 2007, the group may be required to incur decommissioning costs of approximately Great British Pound 300,000, in respect of the power plant site held under Changzhou Power Development Company Limited ("CZPD"), if it is not sold before the end of 2010 (the date at which the plant is required to be demolished). After the period end, on September 9, 2009, Yinggao Energy Limited ("YEL") sold 100% of its equity interest in Long Prosperity Industrial Limited ("LPIL") and its subsidiary CZPD to Winko Foundation Limited ("WFL"). The result of the sale of the shares is that the liabilities and issues that currently sit in LPIL and its subsidiary CZPD will thereafter be outside the group's consolidated accounts. Since LPIL and CZPD were subsequently disposed of, it is not probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required and accordingly no provision is made in respect of these costs in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. 14. DISPOSAL OF A SUBSIDIARY On 23 March 2009, the group disposed 100% of its interest in Arko Satellite Limited. The proceeds on disposal of HK$10,000 were recorded as receivable by the group. 15. WRITTEN OFF INVESTMENT IN A SUBSIDIARY In March 2009, the registered licences of Arko Silicon (Hubei) Limited was de-registered by the PRC Business Bureau. The 100% of its interest in Arko Silicon (Hubei) Limited was written off by the group. 16. POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS a) Change name of the company Subsequent to balance sheet date, the company's name was changed from "Arko Holdings plc" to "Yinggao Holdings plc" on 24 August 2009. b) Disposal of Equity Interest in Long Prosperity Industrial Limited The company announced on September 9, 2009 that a wholly owned subsidiary of the company, Yinggao Energy Limited ("YEL") has agreed to sell the 100 per cent. equity interest it owns in Long Prosperity Industrial Limited ("LPIL") to a related company, Winko Foundation Limited ("WFL"), whose sole shareholder, Keen Lloyd Holdings Limited, is also the major shareholder of the company, holding 92.06 per cent. of the company's issued share capital. The only asset owned by LPIL is a 59.2 per cent stake in Changzhou Power Development Company Limited ("CZPD"), a subsidiary operating a coal-fired power plant in Hubei , China. The power plant ceased operation in the third quarter of 2007 and has shut down following an agreement signed with the local government in June 2007. An announcement was made on 4 June 2008 by the company detailing that the value of the property, plant and equipment at the power plant in Hubei was wholly written off. As a result, the power plant now carries no value in the balance sheet of the consolidated accounts of the company and no longer makes any contributions to the company. In terms of liabilities, CZPD is the borrower in respect of the US$1.9 million loan from Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited. This was the disputed loan which lead to the qualification in the audit report for the year ended 31 December 2008. In addition, CZPD may incur decommissioning costs of approximately Great British Pound 300,000 in respect of the power plant if it is not sold prior to 2010. The result of the sale of the shares in LPIL to WFL is that the liabilities and issues that currently sit in either LPIL or its subsidiary CZPD will thereafter be outside the group's consolidated accounts will have significant uncertainties removed from them. Under the sale and purchase agreement of YEL, it will dispose of the 5,000 ordinary shares it owns in LPIL to WFL for a nominal consideration of HK$1.00. In addition, the agreement states that YEL will be paid 50 per cent. of any amount recoverable by LPIL as a result of the legal proceedings in which LPIL is currently engaged as co-plaintiff with Global Assets Limited and b)Disposal of Equity Interest in Long Prosperity Industrial Limited (Continued) Walton Enterprises Limited against Sun Hung Kai Securities Limited for breach of contract in relation to the sale of equity in CZPD. The independent directors of the company, having consulted with Daniel Stewart & Company plc, the company's nominated adviser, consider that the disposal of YEL's equity interest in LPIL is in the best interests of the company and that the terms of the transaction as fair and reasonable insofar as shareholders are concerned. 17.
