COMPANY OVERVIEW

The Group is a network solution provider in the PRC, engaging principally in providing network solutions to the PRC telecommunications service providers (primarily fixed line, mobile and data communications operators). The Group's sales to the PRC telecommunications service providers accounted for approximately 79.0 per cent, 81.0 per cent, and 87.0 per cent, respectively, of the Group's total turnover in the period from 17th December, 1998 to 30th September, 1999, the year ended 30th September, 2000 and the seven months ended 30th April, 2001.

The PTBs, of China Telecom are the largest customers of the Group for these periods. The Group also provides network solutions to customers in other market sectors in the PRC, including education institutions, medical institutions, state-owned enterprises and government agencies in the PRC.

Network infrastructure solution is a total solution for setting up telecommunications network infrastructures, including the design and implementation of network access and backbone infrastructures. The network infrastructure solutions offered by the Group comprise both the Broadband Data Network Information Platform developed by the Group as well as the integration of third-party software and hardware.

MARKET POTENTIAL

With China's entry into the World Trade Organization, the telecommunications market will be opened up to foreign competitors in stages. Foreign companies will be allowed to invest in the PRC's telecommunications services. Competition in the PRC telecommunications sector therefore will be intensified and lead to price reductions and stimulate consumer demand for better service. The Group needs to manage network more efficiently and effectively will force telecommunications service providers to adopt new software applications and management systems.

Over the next few years, the Directors believe that network management solutions will grow significantly for the following reasons:

  • As the telecommunications market opens up, there will be more and more new ISPs, ICPs, telecommunications and data communications service providers as such, there will be a need for new systems as well as expansion and upgrading of existing systems;
  • Research and developments will yield new technologies, which will in turn generate demand for technologies upgrade; and
  • Consolidation in the telecommunications industry will require combination of networks and new network design to accommodate the changing marketplace.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

The Directors believe that the Group has the following competitive advantages:

  • It is well positioned to deliver a portfolio of proprietary network management software applicable to telephone, data and mobile network systems, therefore placing the Group in a competitively advantageous position in relation to its competitors in the fast growing telecommunications industry in the PRC.
  • It has strong capability in research and product development for network infrastructure and network management solutions which has allowed the Group to rapidly respond to changing market demand and has formed a strong foundation for allowing the Group to provide network solutions in the PRC.
  • The Group was joined the strategic alliances with well-established institutions and companies, which will strengthen the Group's market position in the PRC telecommunications sector.
  • It has a team of highly trained technical staff who has over nine years of experience in the PRC telecommunications sector. An experienced team of executive Directors leads the Group also.

RISK FACTORS

  • Over dependence on the telecommunications sector in the PRC;
  • The Group really requires a significant working capital requirement;
  • Dependence on other strategic alliances and on major suppliers;
  • Change in policy regarding the PRC telecommunications industry;
  • Changes in the favorable taxation treatment afforded to the Company subsidiaries may adversely affect the profitability of the Group;
