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.

Notes: 
(i)    Statutory surplus reserve: 
In accordance with the law of the People's Republic of China (the "PRC") and the 
articles of association of certain of the Company's subsidiaries, directors of 
these subsidiaries may at their discretion make appropriations to a statutory 
surplus reserve equivalent to 10% of the subsidiaries' net profits. 
Appropriations may also be made to statutory public welfare reserve equivalent 
to 5 to 10% of the net profits of these operating subsidiaries. Distribution of 
profits to shareholders can only be made after such appropriations. 
 The statutory surplus reserve may be used to reduce any losses incurred or be 
capitalised as paid up capital. The use of the statutory public welfare reserve 
is restricted to capital expenditure incurred for staff welfare facilities. The 
statutory public welfare reserve is not available for distribution. 
 
 
(ii)    The merger reserve represents the difference between the nominal value 
of shares of the subsidiary company acquired, and the nominal value of the 
Company's shares issued in 2002.

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.

manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to 
the group's most senior executive management for the purposes of resource 
allocation and performance assessment. The group has identified the following 
five reportable segments.   Revenue and expenses are allocated to the reportable 
segments based on the type of services and sub-divided into geographical 
location.

In respect of subsidiaries operating in Hong Kong, no provision for Hong Kong 
profits tax are provided as there are tax losses brought forward to set off 
against current period's assessable profit. (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.

9.  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.

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.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
