Subject : ARTICLE ENTITLED : "Freight Management sets profit target"

Contents :

With reference to our reply on 26 January 2007 in connection with your query on 25 January 2007, the Company wishes to give further clarification as follows :-

The budget was based on annual targets set for each subsidiary in the Group. Internally, the Management expects each subsidiary to target a 15% growth in the internal budget. This target is based on the performance trend for the past two years; which the Group had reported a year on year growth of 16% in the financial year 2006 and 14% in the financial year 2005.

From the performance of Quarter 1 for the year ending 30 June 2007 the Group had achieved a profit after tax growth of 20%. The Management is confident that the targeted growth is achievable.

We wish to confirm that the bases and assumptions in deriving the revenue and profit targets are based on management estimates and have not been reviewed by the external auditors.
