09:02 KANHAN TECH<08175> - Quarterly Results Announcement (2) 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION The accounting policies adopted in preparing the unaudited consolidated results are consistent with those followed in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31st December, 2004. The unaudited consolidated results have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with accounting standards issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA"), accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong and the disclosure requirements of Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and the GEM Listing Rules. In 2004, the HKICPA issued a number of new and revised Hong Kong Accounting Standards and Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRS") which are effective for accounting periods beginning or after 1st January, 2005. The adoption of these HKFRS has no material impact on the Group's results of operations and financial position. 3. TAXATION No provision for taxation has been made in the account as the Group had no assessable profits for the three months ended 31st March, 2005 (2004: Nil). 4. DIVIDEND No dividend has been paid or declared by the Company or any of its subsidiaries for the three months ended 31st March, 2005 and 2004. 5. (LOSS)EARNINGS PER SHARE The computation of the basic loss per share for the three months ended 31st March, 2005 is based on the Group's loss attributable to shareholders of approximately HK$750,000 (2004: a profit of HK$10,000) and on the weighted average number of shares issued during the quarter of 583,718,400 (2004: 486,432,000). No diluted(loss)earnings per share for both periods were presented as there were no dilutive potential ordinary shares outstanding.
