Notes:

  1. Variance is due to the adjustment of dividend income received from an associate. The previously recorded dividend income included administrative expenses of the associate to be borne by the Group, has been disclosed separately as "dividend income" and "administrative expenses".
  2. Variance is due to an adjustment to the share of pre-operating loss of a joint venture which was finalised only after the release of the Unaudited Financial Statements.
  3. Variance is due to recognition of renovation costs for new department stores which was finalised only after the release of the Unaudited Financial Statements.
  4. Variance is due to reclassification of interest paid on loans and bonds from operating activities to financing activities.
