貿易通 2020 年年報

Chairman’s Statement (Continued) 主席報告書（續） 08 Tradelink Electronic Commerce Limited Annual Report 2020 回顧（續） 我們的電子商務業務包括兩個業務子分部，即政 府電子貿易服務（「 GETS 」）及供應鏈應用方案， 於二零二零年的總收益為港幣 174,000,000 元，而 二 零 一 九 年 則 為 港 幣 246,300,000 元，下 跌 29.4% 。倘不計入供應鏈應用方案子分部於二零 一九年來自主要客戶項目銷售貨品的特殊收入， 電子商務業務分部於二零二零年的收益僅同比輕 微下跌 2.3% 。分部溢利為港幣 59,100,000 元，較二 零一九年的港幣 69,200,000 元的溢利下跌 14.7% 。 如前所述， COVID-19 對香港外圍貿易活動的負面 影響在二零二零年下半年稍為緩解。再加上由於 社會問題影響香港經濟，二零一九年下半年的比 較基數較低，意味著二零二零年最後兩個季度的 整體 GETS 市場實際上幾乎與上年同期持平。二零 二零年 GETS 市場的萎縮減少至僅 4.8% ，較二零二 零年上半年 9.2% 的市場萎縮顯著改善。我們的 GETS 收益為港幣 150,700,000 元，同比下跌 6.9% 。 我們的供應鏈應用方案業務子分部於二零二零年 的收益為港幣 23,300,000 元，較二零一九年錄得的 收益港幣 84,500,000 元下跌逾 70% 。同樣地，倘不 計上述特殊收入，此業務子分部的營業額實際上 增加 41% 。此業務子分部的收益包括先前交付的 項目中的主要升級項目及一個於下半年進行的新 確認項目。該新項目為由一間主要電訊公司訂購 的倉庫管理系統（「倉庫管理系統」），以更好地管 理其電訊╱衛星設備及零件的存貨。隨著完成或 繼續結轉自過往年度的項目及於年內確認的新項 目的開發工作，此業務分部的項目收益乃悉數或 按進度確認。毋庸置疑， COVID-19 對我們供應鏈 應用方案的大部份目標客戶造成沉重打擊，因而 減慢彼等對新系統╱應用程式的投資決策。因 此，受到 COVID-19 的影響，我們預期於年內初段 時間能確認的多個較大型項目未能落實。然而， 客戶仍存在需求，最終我們在年末前正式確認訂 單，開發工作定於二零二一年展開。 Review (Continued) For our E-Commerce business, which consists of two business sub-segments, namely Government Electronic Trading Services (“GETS”) and Supply Chain Solutions, total revenue in 2020 was HK$174.0 million, compared to HK$246.3 million in 2019, representing a drop of 29.4%. If the exceptional income from the sales of goods for the major customer project in the Supply Chain Solutions sub-segment in 2019 was excluded, the E-Commerce business segment revenue in 2020 dropped only slightly by 2.3% year-on-year. Segment profit at HK$59.1 million was down 14.7% compared to profit of HK$69.2 million in 2019. As mentioned earlier, the negative impact of COVID-19 on Hong Kong’s external trading activities eased somewhat in the second half of 2020. This, coupled with a lower base for comparison in the second half of 2019 due to social issues that affected the Hong Kong economy, meant that the overall GETS market in the last two quarters of 2020 was actually almost on a par with the same period in the previous year. The shrinkage of the GETS market for 2020 was reduced to only 4.8%, a substantial improvement over the market contraction of 9.2% in the first half of 2020. Our GETS revenue of HK$150.7 million dropped 6.9% year-on-year. As for our Supply Chain Solutions business sub-segment, its 2020 revenue was HK$23.3 million, a plunge of over 70% compared to the HK$84.5 million revenue recorded in 2019. Again, should the exceptional income mentioned above be excluded, this business sub-segment turnover would have actually increased by 41%. The revenue of this business sub-segment included major enhancement projects from previously delivered projects, as well as a newly confirmed project, with work-in-progress in the second half of the year. This new project was a Warehouse Management System (“WMS”), ordered by a major telecommunication company for better management of the inventory of its telecommunication/satellite equipment and components. With the development work of projects carried forward from previous years completed or continued as well as the new projects confirmed during the year, project revenue was recognized fully or on a work-in-progress basis for this business sub-segment. A large proportion of the target customers of our Supply Chain Solutions were undoubtedly hard hit by the impact of COVID-19, thus slowing down their investment decisions regarding new systems/applications. As a result, there were a couple of rather sizable projects that we expected to have been confirmed earlier in the year had it not been due to the impact of COVID-19. However, the customer demand remained and we eventually had the orders formally confirmed just before the year end, with development work set to commence in 2021.
