MAN SANG HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2003
(UNAUDITED)
1. INTERIM FINANCIAL PRESENTATION
The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements for
reporting on Form 10-Q. The March 31, 2003 balance sheet data was derived from
audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles. The interim financial statements and
notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
notes included in the annual report of Man Sang Holdings, Inc. (the "Company")
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003. In the opinion of
management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal
recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the
interim periods presented. Operating results and cash flows for interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of results of the entire year.
2. CURRENCY PRESENTATION AND FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated from their
functional currency to the reporting currency at period end exchange rates,
while revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the
period. Adjustments arising from such translation are reported as a separate
component of stockholders' equity. Gains or losses from foreign currency
transactions are included in the Statement of Operations. Aggregate net foreign
currency gains or losses were immaterial for all periods.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company are maintained, and its
consolidated financial statements are expressed, in Hong Kong dollars. The
translations of Hong Kong dollars into United States dollars are for convenience
only and have been made at the rate of HK$7.8 to US$1, the approximate free rate
of exchange at June 30, 2003. Such translations should not be construed as
representations that Hong Kong dollar amounts could be converted into United
States dollars at that rate or any other rate.
3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations". This statement addresses the diverse accounting practices for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs. The Company adopted this statement on April
1, 2003. There was no significant impact on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.
On April 30, 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.145, "Rescission of FASB Statement
No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections", to update, clarify, and simplify certain existing accounting
pronouncements. Specifically, SFAS No. 145: (i) Rescinds SFAS No. 4, "Reporting
Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt", an amendment of APB Opinion 30,
and SFAS No. 64, "Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund
Requirements", which amended SFAS No. 4, as these two statements required that
all gains and losses from the
F-5
extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material, classified as an
extraordinary item. Such gains and losses will now be classified as
extraordinary only if they meet the criteria for extraordinary treatment set
forth in APB Opinion 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations- Reporting the
Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and
Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions"; (ii) Rescinds SFAS No. 44,
"Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers", an amendment of Chapter 5
of Accounting Research Bulletins No. 43 and an interpretation of APB Opinion 17
and 30, because the discrete event to which the statement relates is no longer
relevant; (iii) Amends SFAS No. 13, "Accounting for Leases", to require that
certain lease modifications that have economic effects similar to sale-leaseback
transaction be accounted for in the same manner as sale-leaseback transactions;
(iv) Makes certain technical corrections that the FASB deemed to be
non-substantive, to a number of existing accounting pronouncements.
The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 and No.
64 are effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The provisions
related to the amendment of SFAS No. 13 are effective for transactions occurring
after May 15, 2002. All other provisions of SFAS No. 145 are effective for
financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002. There was no significant
impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations as a result
of the adoption of SFAS No.145.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement No. 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The statement amends and
clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS
No. 133. This statement is generally effective for contracts entered into or
modified after June 30, 2003. Management is assessing, but has not yet
determined, the impact that SFAS No. 149 will have, if any, on its financial
position and results of operations.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150. "Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity." The statement
establishes standards for classification and measurement of certain financial
instruments. This statement is effective for financial instruments entered into
or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of
the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The statement requires
that certain financial instruments that, under previous guidance, could be
accounted for as equity be classified as liabilities, or as assets in some
circumstances. The statement also requires disclosures about alternative ways of
settling the instruments and the capital structure of entities whose shares are
mandatorily redeemable. This statement does not apply to features embedded in a
financial instrument that is not a derivative in its entirety. Management is
assessing, but has not yet determined, the impact that SFAS No. 150 will have,
if any, on its financial position and results of operations.
4. EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")
EPS is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128. Per share data is calculated
using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
the period.
Man Sang International Limited ("MSIL"), a subsidiary of the Company whose
shares are listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited, adopted a share
option scheme (the "Old Share Option Scheme") on September 8, 1997. The Old
Share Option Scheme is administered by Board of Directors of MSIL. On August 2,
2002, at the 2002 Annual General Meeting of MSIL, MSIL's shareholders approved a
share option scheme (the "New Share Option Scheme") to replace the Old Share
Option Scheme. No option has been granted under the New Share Option Scheme and
all the options granted under the Old Share Option Scheme lapsed in October
2002.

On June 7, 2002, the Company issued an aggregate of 410,000 shares of common
stock, to two business consultants pursuant to their respective business
consulting agreements. For the three months ended June 30, 2002, the effect on
consolidated EPS of options issued by MSIL and options issued by the Company was
not included in the computation of diluted EPS because doing so would have been
antidilutive. On April 30, 2003, the Company repurchased the consultant's shares
for US$1.5 per share and cancelled those shares on May 12, 2003.
On March 26, 2003, pursuant to the Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan, the
Compensation Committee granted to Cheng Chung Hing, Ricky, the Company's
President, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and then Chief Financial Officer,
and Cheng Tai Po, the Company's Vice Chairman, non-qualified options to purchase
150,000 and 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock respectively at an
exercise price of US$1.1 per share, the latest closing price of the Company's
common stock as of the date of grant. Half of the options vest on March 26, 2004

diluted loss per share because it would have resulted in an anti-dilutive

exemptions and tax rates; (h) potential sales and purchases of real property;
(i) potential stock dividends and (i) the stability of interest rates and
foreign currency exchange rates. These forward-looking statements are based on
assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and
perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future
developments, as well as other factors the Company believes to be appropriate in
particular circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will
meet the Company's expectations and predictions depends on a number of known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, any or all of which could cause
actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations, whether
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements (which may relate to,
among other things, the Company's sales, costs and expenses, income, inventory
performance, and receivables). The Company's ability to achieve its objectives
and expectations are derived in part from assumptions regarding economic
conditions, consumer tastes, and developments in its competitive environment.
The following assumptions, among others, could materially affect the likelihood
that the Company will achieve its objectives and expectations communicated
through these forward-looking statements: (i) that low or negative growth in the
economies or the financial markets of our customers, particularly in the United
States and in Europe, will not occur and reduce discretionary spending on good
that might be perceived as "luxuries"; (ii) that the Hong Kong dollar will
remain pegged to the US dollar at US$1 to HK$7.8; (iii) that customer's choice
of pearls vis-a-vis other precious stones and metals will not change adversely;
(iv) that the Company will continue to obtain a stable supply of pearls in the
quantities, of the quality and on terms required by the Company; (v) that there
will not be a substantial adverse change in the exchange relationship between
Renminbi ("RMB") and the Hong Kong or US dollar; (vi) that there will not be
substantial increase in tax burden of subsidiaries of the Company operating in
the PRC; (vii) that there will not be substantial change in climate and
environmental conditions at the source regions of pearls that could have
material effect on the supply and pricing of pearls; and (viii) that there will
not be substantial adverse change in the real estate market conditions in the
PRC and in Hong Kong. The following discussion of results of operation, and
liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and with
the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2003.
1
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Sales and Gross Profit
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased by HK$9.9 million,
or 12.9%, to HK$66.9 million, compared to net sales of HK$76.8 million during
the same period in 2002. The overall decrease in sales in this quarter was
mainly attributable to the impact of the war in Iraq and Severe Acute
Respiratory Syndrome ("SARS") on consumer spending, which adversely affects
trade shows and travels by overseas buyers to Hong Kong. This shortfall was
partly offset by the contribution of sales revenue generated from the jewelry
business acquired in December 2002.
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased by HK$7.3
million, or 30.0%, to HK$17.0 million from HK$24.3 million for the same period
in 2002. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit margin decreased 6.2% to
25.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from 31.7% for the same period in
2002. The decrease in gross profit margin was mainly attributable to the newly
acquired jewelry business, which has a slightly lower gross profit margin than
our existing pearl and pearl jewelry business and to our flexible pricing
strategy on our fresh water pearls.
Rental Income
Gross rental income for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was approximately
HK$1.4 million representing a decrease of approximately HK$0.4 million, or
24.2%, as compared to HK$1.8 million in the same period in 2002. The decrease in
gross rental income was mainly attributable to the Company taking back certain
of its property for its own use on April 21, 2003.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ("SG & A expenses")
SG&A expenses were HK$20.4 million, consisting of HK$16.8 million attributable
to pearl operations and HK$3.6 million attributable to real estate operations.
SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased approximately
HK$4.4 million, or 27.8%, from HK$16.0 million in the same period in 2002,
consisting of HK$14.3 million attributable to pearl operations and HK$1.7
million attributable to real estate operations, for the same period in 2002. The
increase in SG&A expenses was mainly due to the loss arising on the demolition
of one of the buildings for reconstruction in our Industrial City in Shenzhen,
and the increased headcount and salary expenses related to the acquisition of
the jewelry business in December 2002.
As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses from pearl operations increased 6.5%
to 25.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from 18.6% for the same period
in 2002.
Interest Expenses
Interest expenses decreased by HK$451K, or 77.2%, to HK$133K for the three
months ended June 30, 2003 from HK$584K for the same period in 2002 as a result
of the use of bank deposits to repay part of the Company's bank borrowings.
Interest Income
Interest income decreased by HK$134K, or 58.8%, to HK$94K for the three months
ended June 30, 2003 from HK$228K in the same period in 2002. The decrease was
due principally to a withdrawal of bank deposits to repay part of the Company's
bank borrowings during the three months ended June 30, 2003.
2
Income Tax Expenses
Income tax expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were HK$1.3
million, as compared to HK$3.3 million for the same period in 2002. The decrease
was due to lower tax expenses as a result of lower taxable income generated
during the three months ended June 30, 2003.
Net (Loss) Income
Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was HK$1.9 million, compared
to net income of HK$4.0 million for the same period in 2002. The decrease was
mainly attributable to the decrease in sales, gross profit and rental income in
this period.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary liquidity needs are funded by collection of accounts
receivable and sales of inventories. At June 30, 2003, the Company had working
capital of HK$277.2 million, which included a cash balance of HK$112.4 million.
The current ratio was 6.6 to 1 as of June 30, 2003. Net cash provided by
operating activities was approximately HK$24.3 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2003. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months
ended June 30, 2003 was HK$3.5 million and net cash provided by financing
activities was HK$7.8 million.
Inventories were HK$134.0 million at June 30, 2003. The inventory turnover
period was 7.9 months as at June 30, 2003.
Accounts receivable was HK$50.0 million at June 30, 2003. Debtors' turnover
period was 68 days as at June 30, 2003.
Long-term debts (including current portion of long-term debts) were HK$15.8
million at June 30, 2003. The gearing ratio was 0.85 at June 30, 2003.
The Company had available working capital facilities of HK$70.6 million in total
with various banks at June 30, 2003. Such banking facilities include letter of
credit arrangements, import loans, overdraft and other facilities commonly used
in the jewelry business. All such banking facilities bear interest at floating
rates generally offered by banks in Hong Kong and in the PRC, and are subject to
periodic review. At June 30, 2003, the Company had utilized HK$18.8 million of
these credit facilities.
The Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents, banking
facilities and funds to be generated from internal operations will be sufficient
to meet its anticipated future liquidity requirements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As of June 30, 2003, the Company had no derivative contracts, such as forward
contracts and options to hedge against foreign exchange fluctuations.
During the three months ended June 30, 2003, the Company made 5.0% of its
purchases in RMB and an aggregate of 61.6% in Hong Kong dollars and US dollars.
3
At June 30, 2003, the Company had short-term RMB bank borrowings of HK$18.8
million and the weighted average interest rate was 5.3% per annum. The RMB is
not a fully convertible currency and the PRC government determines its exchange
rate against other currencies. As the PRC has not declared any intention to
either devalue or revalue its currency, the Company believes that any imminent
risk of a substantial fluctuation of the RMB exchange rate remains low. The
Company denominates its sales in either US dollars or Hong Kong dollars. Because
the Hong Kong dollar remained pegged to the US dollar at a consistent rate, the
Company feels that the exposure of its sales proceeds to foreign exchange
fluctuations is minimal. Therefore, the Company believes its currency risk in
the foreseeable future is not material.
At June 30, 2003, the Company had Hong Kong dollar bank borrowings of HK$15.8
million, the weighted average interest rate of which was 2.4% per annum. The
Company's interest expense is sensitive to fluctuations in the general level of
Hong Kong interest rates determined on the basis of Hong Kong Inter-bank Offer
Rate ("HIBOR"). Because the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the US dollar, which
correlates Hong Kong interest rates to US interest rates, any change in US
interest rates will likely affect Hong Kong interest rates. Since the US economy
has slowed down and US interest rates have remained low, the three-month HIBOR
has decreased by 5.37% from 6.5% as at June 30, 2000 to 1.13% as at June 30,
2003. Therefore, the Company does not foresee material risks of an increase in
Hong Kong interest rates in the foreseeable future and did not enter into
derivative contracts or other arrangements to hedge against such risk.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of June 30, 2003, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and the
participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based
on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
No significant change was made in the Company's internal control over financial
reporting during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2003 that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal
control over financial reporting.
The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer do not expect
that the Company's disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all
error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and
operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the
objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must
reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of
controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent
limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide
absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any,
within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the
realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns
can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be
circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more
people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of
controls also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of
future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in
achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
