Lai Fung
20% stake in Lai Fung acquired in 2006, has
generated stable income over the years, although
its share price remained below book value.
The Group assessed that the originally synergistic
partnership with Lai Fung may not be as relevant
today due to Lai Fung's transition towards a more
rental-led strategy and its expansion into MICE-
related assets, especially in non-core Henqin,
China.
The Group is exploring options regarding this
investment and has reclassified it as an asset held
for sale based on the quoted share price at year
end.

.
The impairment assessment considers
the gap between prevailing market
prices of commercial strata and
residential units in the area against
the expected PDE.
One of the major reasons why the PDE
has increased is due to the interest
incurred to the M&A loan taken, and
for the new residential phase, due to
design changes and other costs
brought on by new planning
requirements.

Goodwill of Quest
The business model for Quest entails signing long
term leases and sourcing for franchisees to take
over the leases and operate under the Quest
brand.
The disruption of Quest's traditional sale of
business income and recurring franchise fees due
to COVID-19 have impacted cashflow and
resulted in impairment.
