Fair value hierarchy
The Group categorises fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that is dependent on the valuation inputs used as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active market for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can access at the measurement date;
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Fair value measurements that use inputs of different hierarchy levels are categorised in its entirety at the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.

Review of performance of the Group
Financial performance for six months ended 31 January 2026 ("1HFY2026")
The Group recorded total revenue of $3.0 million in 1HFY2026. The hotel operations business contributed $2.8 million through the Group's hotel namely Klaven Hotel Myeongdong City-Hall ("KMCH"), while investment income contributed $0.2 million.
Korea Hotel operations revenue slightly decreased from $2.9 million for the six months ended 31 January 2025 ("1HFY2025") to $2.8 million in 1HFY2026, primarily due to the foreign currency translation impact resulting from the depreciation of the Korean Won against the Singapore Dollar.
Revenue from investments increased from $0.1 million in 1HFY2025 to $0.2 million in 1HFY2026, as the Group increased its investments in equity and debt securities, which generated higher returns compare to fixed deposits.
The decrease in the Group's other income was mainly due to the reduction in interest income from fixed deposits.
Staff costs have increased slightly due to the temporary additional headcount required during the Korea hotel's pre-opening preparation phase.
The slight decrease in hotel operation expenses from $1.2 million in 1HFY2025 to $1.1 million in 1HFY2026, primarily due to the foreign currency translation impact resulting from the depreciation of the Korean Won against the Singapore Dollar.
The depreciation charged primarily arose from the Group's freehold building and associated renovation works. The slight decrease in depreciation primarily due to the foreign currency translation impact resulting from the depreciation of the Korean Won against the Singapore Dollar.
The decrease in finance costs was primarily attributable to the full settlement of the bank loan in Singapore.
The decrease in other operating expenses from $0.8 million in 1HFY2025 to $0.5 million in 1HFY2026 was mainly due to a $0.3 million of foreign exchange loss resulting from remittances in Korean won to Singapore dollars in prior period.
The increase in taxation of $0.2 million in 1HFY2026 was primarily attributable to dividend income remitted from the asset management company of KMCH to the Group's subsidiaries in Singapore.
Based on the above, the Group's profit attributable to owners of the Company was $0.27 million in 1HFY2026 as compared to of $0.15 million in 1HFY2025.
The Group's comprehensive loss attributable to owners of the Company was $2.1 million in 1HFY2026 as compared to $1.4 million in 1HFY2025 mainly due to foreign currency translation losses related to foreign subsidiaries arising from the depreciation of Korean won against the Singapore dollar.
Review of Financial Position
Property, plant, and equipment decreased from $35.9 million as at 31 July 2025 to $33.5 million as at 31 January 2026, mainly due to foreign exchange movement of approximately $2.2 million arising from the depreciation of the Korean Won against the Singapore Dollars, and depreciation charged of $249,000 during the period. This was partly offset by acquisitions of $61,000 during the period.
Right of use assets of $13,000 as at 31 January 2026 mainly relates to the Singapore's office lease.
Long-term investment securities consist of a 15% minority interest in a hotel in Seoul, South Korea and a 5% minority interest in a hotel in Singapore.
Review of performance of the Group (continued) Review of Financial Position (continued)
Long-term receivables of $6.3 million as at 31 January 2026 relate to shareholder loans provided to two investee companies in which the Group has a 15% interest and 5% interest respectively.
The decrease in current trade and other receivables was mainly due to timing of receipts for trade receivables and maturing fixed deposits placed with banks.
Short-term investment securities of $5.6 million as at 31 January 2026 relate to quoted investments that are held for trading and carried at fair value through profit or loss. The increase was mainly due to the additions of quoted investments.
The decrease in trade and other payables was mainly due to the payment of expenses during the period.
Review of Cash Flow
Net cash used in operating activities of $1.2 million for 1HFY2026 was mainly due to additions of quoted investments during the period.
Net cash generated from investing activities was nil for 1HFY2026, as the interest received from fixed deposits was fully offset by the purchase of PPE.
Net cash used in financing activities of $30,000 for 1HFY2026 was mainly due to the payment of lease liabilities.
As a result of the above, there was a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $1.2 million. The Group's cash and bank balances decreased from $10.6 million as at 31 July 2025 to $9.2 million as at 31 January 2026.

A commentary at the date of the announcement of the significant trends and competitive conditions of the industry in which the group operates and any known factors or events that may affect the group in the next reporting period and the next 12 months.
