E-commerce – GETS Review
While the global economy was generally slow since last year, there was a little
pleasant surprise of the overall GETS market for the first half of 2016 as the total
business volume for the period was up 2.6% year-on-year. Benefited from the
overall market growth, our total transaction volume for the period also increased
by 1.2%. Coupled with the overall increase in our GETS pricing, the Group’s
total GETS revenue for the first half of the year was HK$81.2 million, up from
HK$80.7 million for the same period last year. However due to inflation of the
costs, our GETS profit for the period dropped from HK$23.8 million last year to
HK$20.6 million this year.
As regards our current GETS licence, Government has formally confirmed
its extension till end of 2018. As announced by the Government in their
Consultation Paper on Development of Trade Single Window (“SW”) in April
2016, the SW is expected to take over from GETS upon its full implementation,
by 2024 earliest. As such, Government intends to continue the GETS model
from 2019 to 2024 buffered by a two-year extension. For the future SW,
Government will leave room for private sector service providers (“VASPs”) to
develop value-added services to help SW users make the most of the SW
environment. In response to the Government’s public consultation, we have
reverted our views on specific questions relating to GETS and SW business
future as a private sector service provider. We will continue to keep a close
eye on the market responses and Government’s further plan and development
on SW implementation. Meanwhile with the current GETS licence extended to
2018 and a more concrete proposal for SW implementation with timeline from
Government, we shall further our GETS business and formulate our strategy in
view of potential changes.
E-Commerce – Commercial Services Review
Revenue from our Commercial Services (formerly called DTTN services) during
the period declined from HK$5 million for the first half of 2015 to HK$4 million
this year. Profit also fell to HK$2.8 million, about HK$0.9 million less than same
period last year. The drop in revenue and profit in the first half of the year was
mainly a timing issue as completion of a couple of major projects originally
scheduled for the first half of the year has been pushed back to the second half
of the year to better suit the operations and timeline of the customers concerned.

回顧
自去年以來全球經濟普遍放緩，惟有點意外驚喜的是二零
一六年上半年整體
GETS
市場總交易量按年上升
2.6%
。受
惠於整體市場增長，我們的期內總交易量亦增加
1.2%
。
連帶我們的

收費整體增加，本集團於今年上半年的
GETS
收益總額為港幣
81,200,000
元，較去年同期的港幣
80,700,000
元有所上升。然而，由於成本上漲，我們期內
GETS
溢利由去年的港幣
23,800,000
元下降至本年度的港幣
20,600,000
元。
至於我們現有的
GETS
服務牌照，政府已正式確定將其延長
至二零一八年底。誠如政府於二零一六年四月所刊發《發展
貿易單一窗口》（「單一窗口」）的諮詢文件宣佈，預期單一窗
口最早於二零二四年全面實施後將取代
GETS
。因此，政府
有意於二零一九年至二零二四年間繼續採用
GETS
模式，並
可延期兩年作緩衝。有關日後的單一窗口，政府將為私營服
務供應商（「增值服務供應商」）預留空間發展增值服務，以助
單一窗口用戶充分利用單一窗口。作為私營服務供應商，我
們已經就有關
GETS
及單一窗口業務前景的具體問題提交意
見，以回應政府的公眾諮詢。我們將繼續密切注視市場反應
及政府對實施單一窗口的進一步計劃及發展。與此同時，隨
著現有的
GETS
服務牌照已確定延期至二零一八年，加上政
府已發表有關單一窗口實施的具體方案及時間表，我們可繼
續
GETS
業務，並因應可能出現的變動制定應對的策略。
電子商貿－商業服務回顧
我們的期內商業服務（前稱
DTTN
服務）收益由二零一五年上
半年的港幣
5,000,000
元下降至今年的港幣
4,000,000
元。
溢利亦下降至港幣
2,800,000
元，較去年同期減少約港幣
900,000
元。今年上半年收益及溢利均告下降主要為時間問
題，因有數個原定於上半年完成的主要項目要推遲至今年下
半年，以更配合有關客戶的營運及時間安排。
