The water supply and related services segment, its largest revenue contributor, supplies tap water to various districts in Qingyuan City, Guangdong province through water treatment plants; provides water quality inspection, water pipe repairs and maintenance, water meter maintenance and replacement, and other ancillary services; and operates through subsidiaries such as Qingyuan Water Supply Development Company Limited. The property investment and development segment develops, leases, and manages land and commercial and residential properties, including shopping malls in Guangzhou and projects in Australia; while the financial services segment offers corporate finance advisory, asset management, securities brokerage, margin financing, investment advisory, and securities dealing services through subsidiaries like Hooray Securities Limited. The Group comprises dozens of subsidiaries with operational headquarters in China and a strategic overseas business center in Hong Kong; it targets municipal governments, commercial users, residents, and investors in the utilities, real estate, and financial sectors. In recent developments, the Group entered into a non-legally binding memorandum of understanding in June 2023 with Dongguan Zhaoyu Real Estate Co., Ltd. and Qingyuan Xuhong Industrial Co., Ltd. for the potential acquisition of a controlling stake in equity interests related to property projects in Qingyuan City, Guangdong province, for an indicative consideration of not less than RMB300 million, supported by a refundable earnest money deposit of RMB150 million. Additionally, it paid deposits for investment properties and a subsidiary acquisition, recorded impairments on goodwill and non-current assets in its 2023 annual results due to unfavorable market conditions, and appointed Yeung Kin Chung Clifton as an independent non-executive director in June 2023 while completing the acquisition of Hooray Securities Limited in 2024.
