or HK$ are to the currency of Hong Kong, and references to U.S. dollars or US$ are to the currency of the United States. This annual report contains translations of Hong Kong dollar amounts into U.S. dollar

into U.S. dollars at the rates indicated or at any other rates.

NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This annual report contains forward-looking statements that are, by their nature, subject to significant risks and uncertainties. These
include statements with respect to City Telecom and our plans, strategies and beliefs and other statements that are not historical facts. These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as may,
will, expect, anticipate, intend, estimate, continue, plan, predict, project or other similar words. The statements are based on
managements assumptions and beliefs in light of the information currently available to us.

These assumptions involve
risks and uncertainties which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. Potential risks and
uncertainties include, without limitation:



| |  |  | grant of domestic free television programme service licence by the government;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in our regulatory environment, including changes in rules and policies promulgated by regulatory agencies from time to time;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increasing competition in the multimedia market, including the domestic free television market in Hong Kong and the international content licensing and
distribution market;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | viewer preferences on self-produced and purchased contents;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the benefits we expect to derive from the Television and Multimedia Production Centre under construction in Tseung Kwan O Industrial Estate in Hong
Kong which is expected to be in full operational in 2014;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | changes in the our ability to successfully introduce new services and the popularity of our new services to the market;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the continued development and stability of certain capacity of the telecommunications network of the Telecom Business which is under a 20 years
indefeasible right of use granted to the Company and will be used as the main channel of distribution in Hong Kong for the domestic free television programming services to be offered by the Company subject to the licence grant;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | contrary to the Telecom Business with 20 years operational track record before its disposal, our business development into multimedia production and
free television subject to licence grant, is a new line of business for us, for which we have limited direct experience, thereby making forecasting much more difficult;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in technology; and

Exchange rate information

The Hong Kong dollar is freely convertible into
other currencies (including the U.S. dollar). Since 1983, the Hong Kong dollar has been officially linked to the U.S. dollar and the current rate is US$1.00 to HK$7.80. Despite the efforts of the HKMA, to keep the official exchange rate stable, the
market exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar against the U.S. dollar continues to be influenced by the forces of supply and demand in the foreign exchange markets. Furthermore, the official exchange rate is itself subject to fluctuations and can be
reset in circumstances where the secondary foreign exchange markets move beyond the HKMAs ability to back the official rate with foreign reserves.

not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also adversely affect us.

Risks relating to our
business and operations

We have a limited operating history in our Multimedia Production Business, which makes
it difficult to evaluate our business.

We have a limited operating history in the Multimedia Production Business for
you to evaluate our business, financial performance and prospects. Our historical results, which are based largely on the Telecom Business that we disposed of in May 2012, are not indicative of our future performance. To date, we have not achieved
profitability in our Multimedia Production Business and, going forward, we may not be able to generate revenue or achieve profitability on annual basis.

We may not be able to implement our business plans and expansion strategies successfully.

We intend to increase the production volume of our television content significantly in 2013 and 2014. We also plan to distribute our television content to Internet portals and overseas markets. Our
business plans and strategies have been formulated based on a number of assumptions including successful cooperation with our business partners. We might not be able to implement our business plans and expansion strategies successfully.

##### Table of Contents

Our expansion strategies are expected to place substantial demands on our managerial,
operational, financial and other resources. The success of our business plans and expansion strategies depend on our ability to:



| |  |  | build our infrastructure on schedule and within budget;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | manage to produce good quality contents within budget which is appealing to our customers;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | able to generate revenue from the good quality contents through advertising and content licensing and distribution
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | develop effective marketing channels in Hong Kong and international markets;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | control operational costs and maintain effective quality controls; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | obtain the domestic free television programme service licence for broadcasting in Hong Kong.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The failure to achieve any of the above could increase our costs of operation and investments. The execution of our growth strategies
will also incur substantial costs and require substantial resources. We may not be able to manage our operations efficiently to compete successfully in our existing markets or new markets that we may enter, which may materially and adversely affect
our financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be granted a domestic free television programme service
licence.

On December 31, 2009, we submitted an application for the domestic free television programme service licence
in Hong Kong to the HKBA. If granted, this licence will allow us to provide free television programme services in Hong Kong. The grant of the licence is still pending. If the Chief Executive in Council rejects our application or if there is a
prolonged delay in granting the licence, we will not be able to operate domestic free television programme services in Hong Kong in the short term or at all. As domestic free television programme services is expected to be one of the major
distribution channels of our self-produced television content and the primary source of advertising revenue, this will mean that the Group will need to explore other distribution channels which involves large uncertainties, this may in turn
adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, and we may not be able to generate revenue in the short term or become profitable in the long term.

Moreover, if there is a prolonged delay in obtaining the domestic free television programme service licence, we may not be able to effectively manage our financial resources, given that the operation of
domestic free television programme service is expected to incur a substantial amount of capital and operating expenditure, and while awaiting the grant of the licence, we would not be able to optimally utilize our financial resources in longer term
investments.

Our new business in the provision of domestic free television programme services may not become profitable
in the long term.

If the domestic free television programme service licence is granted, we will incur additional
expenditure for programme production before we can generate revenue. In addition, given that the Multimedia Production Business is a new business venture and the industry incumbent, Television Broadcasts Limited has dominated the viewership on
domestic free television programme services by a large margin, we may not be able to become profitable in the long term.

The construction and development of a Television and Multimedia Production Centre is subject to a number of risks beyond our
control.

Since February 2012, we have started building a Television and Multimedia Production Centre on land granted
by Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation at Tseung Kwan O Industrial Estate. Construction of the Television and Multimedia Production Centre is expected to cost at least HK$800.0 million.

The construction and development of this Centre are subject to a number of risks which are beyond our control, including:



| |  |  | the possibility of construction delay or costs over run due to inclement weather, labor or material shortages, work stoppages market inflation and
delayed regulatory approvals;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the possibility of discovering previously undetected defects or problems; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | natural disasters, social disorder and other extraordinary events.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------

The occurrence of any of these events could delay the construction and development of the Television and Multimedia Production Centre or
increase our costs, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

##### Table of Contents

The development of our Multimedia Production Business and Distribution Business
requires significant capital expenditures, which may not be available on terms satisfactory to us or may impose a burden on our other business activities.

We expect to incur capital expenditures of approximately HK$700.0 million in 2013, majority of which will be for the building of the Television and Multimedia Production Centre. While we intend to fund
such expenditures by using our currently available cash, as well as unutilized banking facilities, we may not have adequate capital to fund our projected capital expenditures if there is any event which could cause prolonged delay in the launch of
our domestic free television programme service, prolonged delay in the construction and development of the Television and Multimedia Production Centre or an increase in the construction costs. If we cannot finance our operations and capital
expenditure using existing available cash and cash generated from operations, if any, we may be required to, among other things, incur additional debt, reduce capital expenditures, sell assets, or raise equity. Market conditions may impair our
ability to obtain financing to support our capital expansion plans. Additional debt or equity financing may not be available, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on our investing, financing and operating activities.

If we fail to capture viewer preferences, our business prospects and reputation could be materially and adversely
affected.

The success of our self-produced television content primarily depends on our ability to capture viewer
preferences, which vary in different demographic groups and regions and could change rapidly. In general, the popularity of television content among viewers is mainly determined by the producers ability to originate and source viewer-engaging
content, create high-quality scripts and characters that appeal to a broad range of viewers, and cast popular talents and directors. If the viewers reaction to our television content is largely different from our predicted viewer preferences,
the success and popularity of the television content will be at risk. If our television content fails to perform as expected, we may not be able to establish a strong reputation in television content production business and our business prospects
could be materially and adversely affected.

Our business could be materially and adversely affected by claims of
infringement of intellectual property rights.

Monitoring and preventing the unauthorized use of the Groups
intellectual property rights may be difficult, costly and time-consuming. If we are unable to adequately protect our copyrights and other intellectual property rights, these rights may be infringed, our business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

Moreover, third parties may claim that our self-produced
television content misappropriates or infringes their intellectual property rights, including those with respect to their previous productions, scripts and characters. Any litigation regarding intellectual property rights could be costly and
time-consuming and could divert the attention of our management and key personnel from our business operations. If we are unsuccessful in defending any such assertions or claims, our business, financial condition, results of operations and
reputation may be materially and adversely affected.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain
high-quality production crew and talent artistes in a highly competitive market.

The Multimedia Production Business
requires the collaboration of many different work streams and people with different expertise, and hence our ability to attract and retain high-quality production crew and popular talent artistes is a key factor for our success. Loss of producers,
other members of our production team or talent artistes could adversely affect our production volume and quality and, as a result, we could be materially and adversely affected.

In addition, we face competition for high-quality production crew and popular talent artistes from other television content production
companies and other organizations. Competition for these individuals could require us to offer higher compensation and other benefits in order to attract and retain them, which would increase our operating expenses.

We may lose investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements if we fail to achieve and maintain effective
internal control over financial reporting, which in turn could harm our business and adversely affect the trading prices of our ADRs.

Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, every public company must include a management report on its internal controls over financial reporting in its annual report, which contains managements
assessment of the effectiveness of the companys internal controls over financial reporting. Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we are also required to have an independent registered public accounting firm to attest to and report on the
effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.

We have evaluated our internal controls surrounding the
financial reporting process for the current fiscal period so that management can attest to the effectiveness of these controls. However, we may identify conditions that could result in significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. As a result, we
could experience a negative reaction in the financial markets and incur additional costs in improving the condition of our internal controls. For a detailed discussion of controls and procedures, see Item 15 Controls and procedures.

##### Table of Contents

Notwithstanding our efforts, our management could conclude that our internal control over
financial reporting is not effective. Further, even if our management concludes that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective, our independent registered public accounting firm may conclude that our internal control over
financial reporting is not effective. If we do not successfully design and implement changes to our internal controls and management systems, or if we fail to maintain the adequacy of these controls as such standards are modified or amended from
time to time, we may not be able to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. This could subject us to regulatory scrutiny and penalties that may result in a loss of public confidence in our management, which could, among other things, adversely affect
our customer and vendor confidence, stock price and our ability to raise additional capital and operate our business as projected.

We depend on certain key personnel, and our business and growth prospects may be disrupted by the loss of their services.

Our success depends upon the continued service of our key executives and Talents. If any of our key personnel were unable or unwilling to
continue in their present positions we may not be able to replace them easily, our business may be significantly disrupted. Furthermore, as our industry is characterized by high demand and increased competition for Talents, we may need to offer
higher compensation and other benefits in order to attract and retain key personnel. We might not be able to attract and retain the key personnel that we need to achieve our business objectives.

Risks relating to the regulatory, political and economic environment

Currency fluctuations of the Hong Kong dollar, our functional currency, may increase our operating costs and long term liability.

We are exposed to a certain amount of foreign exchange risk because our expected revenue will be predominantly denominated in Hong Kong
dollars, while a certain portion of our operating costs are expected to be denominated in U.S. dollars, Renminbi or other foreign currencies.

Although the Hong Kong dollar has been linked to the U.S. dollar since 1983 at the rate of HK$7.80 per US$1.00, it may not continue to be linked. Any depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar against the U.S.
dollar, Renminbi or other currencies would increase our operating costs, make our capital expenditure plans more expensive and adversely affect our profitability.

Our Chairman and Vice Chairman have significant ownership interest in the company. They could engage in transactions that lead to conflicts of interest resulting from their ownership interests.

Our Chairman and Vice Chairman each have an indirect ownership interest in our Company through Top Group
International Limited, which, as of December 18, 2012, held approximately 42.00% of the Companys shares, of which 42.12% and 27.06% was owned by our Chairman and Vice Chairman, respectively. Top Group International Limited is a special
purpose vehicle incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. Its board of directors consists of Mr. Wong and Mr. Cheung. Mr. Wong and Mr. Cheung have entered into a voting agreement pursuant to which they agreed to vote the
339,814,284 shares held by Top Group International Limited, the 15,236,893 shares held by Mr. Wong individually, and the 50,377,763 shares held by Mr. Cheung individually, collectively as a group. Our Chairman and Vice Chairman could take
actions that may not be in the best interests of our other shareholders.

We may be classified as a passive foreign
investment company, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of our American depository shares or ordinary shares.

Based on the market price of our American depository shares, the value of our assets, and the composition of our income and assets, though not without doubt, we do not believe we were a passive foreign
investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our taxable year ended August 31, 2012. However, the application of the PFIC rules is subject to uncertainty in several respects, and we cannot assure you the U.S. Internal
Revenue Service will not take a contrary position. A non-U.S. corporation will be a PFIC for any taxable year if either (1) at least 75% of its gross income for such year is passive income or (2) at least 50% of the value of its assets
(based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets) during such year is attributable to assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income. A separate determination must be made after the close of each
taxable year as to whether we were a PFIC for that year. Because the value of our assets for purposes of the PFIC test will generally be determined by reference to the market price of our American depository shares and ordinary shares, fluctuations
in the market price of our American depository shares and ordinary shares may cause us to become a PFIC. In addition, changes in the composition of our income or assets may cause us to become a PFIC. Furthermore, unless our share value increases
and/or we invest a substantial amount of our cash, we may be a PFIC for our current taxable year ending August 31, 2013. If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder (as defined in Item 10. Additional
InformationE. TaxationUnited States Federal Income Taxation) holds an American depository share or an ordinary share, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to such U.S. Holder. See Item 10.
Additional InformationE. TaxationUnited States Federal Income TaxationPassive Foreign Investment Company.

Risks relating to our ADSs.

As a foreign private issuer, we are not subject to U.S. proxy rules and are subject to Exchange Act reporting obligations that, to some extent, are more lenient than those of a U.S. issuer.

As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S.
domestic issuers, including (i) the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act, (ii) the sections of the Exchange Act requiring
insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time, and (iii) the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of
quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specified information, or current reports on Form 8-K, upon the occurrence of specified significant events. In addition, the executive compensation disclosure requirements to
which we are subject under Form 20-F are be less rigorous than those required of U.S. issuers under Form 10-K. Furthermore, foreign private issuers are not required to file their annual report on Form 20-F until 120 days after the end of each fiscal
year, while U.S. domestic issuers that are not large accelerated filers or accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year. Foreign private issuers are also exempt from the
Regulation FD, aimed at preventing issuers from making selective disclosures of material information.

Holders of ADSs
must act through the depositary to exercise their rights as shareholders of our company.

Holders of our ADSs do not
have the same rights of our shareholders and may only exercise the voting rights with respect to the underlying ordinary shares in accordance with the provisions of the deposit agreement for the ADSs. When a general meeting is convened, you may not
receive sufficient notice to permit you to withdraw your ordinary shares to allow you to cast your vote with respect to any specific matter. In addition, the depositary and its agents may not be able to send voting instructions to you or carry out
your voting instructions in a timely manner. We will make all reasonable efforts to cause the depositary to extend voting rights to you in a timely manner, but you might not receive the voting materials in time to ensure that you can instruct the
depositary to vote your ADSs. Furthermore, the depositary and its agents will not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote, for the manner in which any vote is cast or for the effect of any such vote. As a result, you may
not be able to exercise your right to vote and you may lack recourse if your ADSs are not voted as you requested. In addition, in your capacity as an ADS holder, you will not be able to call a shareholders meeting.

The depositary for our ADSs will give us a discretionary proxy to vote our ordinary shares underlying your ADSs if you do not vote at
shareholders meetings, except in limited circumstances, which could adversely affect your interests. Holders of our ordinary shares are not subject to this discretionary proxy.

You may be subject to limitations on transfers of your ADSs.

Your ADSs are transferable on the books of the depositary. However, the depositary may close its transfer books at any time or from time
to time when it deems expedient in connection with the performance of its duties. In addition, the depositary may refuse to deliver, transfer or register transfers of ADSs generally when our books or the books of the depositary are closed, or at any
time if we or the depositary deems it advisable to do so because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body, or under any provision of the deposit agreement, or for any other reason.

Your right to participate in any future rights offerings may be limited, which may cause dilution to your holdings and you may not
receive cash dividends or other distributions if it is impractical to make them available to you.

We may from time to
time distribute rights to our shareholders, including rights to acquire our securities. However, we cannot make rights available to you in the United States unless we register the rights and the securities to which the rights relate under the
Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements is available. Also, under the deposit agreement, the depositary will not make rights available to you unless either both the rights and any related securities are registered under the
Securities Act, or the distribution of them to ADS holders is exempted from registration under the Securities Act. We are under no obligation to file a registration statement with respect to any such rights or securities or to endeavor to cause such
a registration statement to be declared effective. Moreover, we may not be able to establish an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Accordingly, you may be unable to participate in our rights offerings and may experience dilution
in your holdings.

ITEM 4 INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY



|A. | History and development of the Company
|-- | --------------------------------------

The legal and commercial name of our Company is City Telecom (H.K.) Limited. We were incorporated on May 19, 1992 under the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and is a limited liability company. Our
registered office is located at 13th Floor, Trans Asia Centre, No.18 Kin Hong Street, Kwai Chung, New Territories, Hong Kong, telephone (852) 3145-6888. Our agent for U.S. federal securities laws purposes is CT Corporation System, 111 Eighth
Avenue, New York, NY 10011.

We began offering international telecommunications services in September 1992 and in January
1999, we became the first company in Hong Kong to obtain a PNETS Licence. This licence gives us the right to offer international telecommunications services using ISR method and has had a significant positive impact on our international
telecommunications revenues. We incorporated HKBN in Hong Kong in August 1999 and launched our broadband Internet access services in March 2000. In addition, we began providing local VoIP services in April 2002, IP-TV services in August 2003, and
corporate data services in July 2004 using our Next Generation Network.

In December 2009, we submitted an application to the
HKBA to obtain a domestic free television programme service licence in Hong Kong, which is still subject to be granted.

In
August 2011, Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation granted us a parcel of land in Tseung Kwan O Industrial Estate, New Territories to build a Television and Multimedia Production Centre. Expected to be completed in 2014, the Centre will
possess a gross floor area of approximately 500,000 square feet and consist of 12 studios, including an 18,000 square feet studio, which is expected to be the largest in Hong Kong and smaller studios of 3,000 square feet each. The Centre will become
our headquarter.

In March and April 2012, we entered into the Telecom Group Agreement and the Guangzhou Agreement,
respectively, and in May 2012, we completed the very substantial disposal transaction of both the FTNS business and the IDD business. Since then, the Multimedia Production Business has become the principal focus of the Group, which includes the
production, sales and distribution of Cantonese television drama series, news programmes and other television programmes. It will also include the offering of free television programming services in Hong Kong, subject to the grant of the domestic
free television programme service licence by the Chief Executive in Council.

Since mid-2011, we embarked a large scale
recruitment process in the multimedia industry. From creative directors to post-production professionals, we now have a professional team of more than 500 talents together with about 220 artistes. In April 2012, we started our production, and so
far, we have completed shooting for four television drama series with four others in progress (ranging from 1030 hours per series). Our infotainment and variety programmes cover a spectrum of programmes with no boundary on subjects and
locations, ranging from world class productions, such as Challenge to execute impossible missions including chasing a hurricane in the United States, climbing into a live volcano in Vanuatu, etc., to programmes introducing domestic local
culture, such as Secret of Food.

Upon the disposal of the Telecom Business, the news production operation unit
remained with the Company and will continue to provide news content to the Telecom Business for their bbTV broadcasting use under a licensing arrangement. Once our broadcasting start, our news production operation unit will fully support the news
programme production.

Apart from the above self-produced programmes, we also purchased popular and high quality contents from
Japan, Korea and Mainland China including television drama series and cartoons. To adapt to local audiences, we maintain a professional dubbing team for the post production process, including dubbing to local language and subtitling. As of
August 31, 2012, we had more than 850 episodes of purchased content in our library.

Some of the key events in our
history and development include the following:



| |  |  | In October 2006, our Liu Xiang Be Ahead of Yourself marketing campaign won the Certificate of Excellence of HKMA/TVB Awards for
Marketing Excellence 2006.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In February 2007, we launched our bb50 and bb200 symmetric residential broadband service supported by our special duty unit
(SDU), personalized customer care service.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In June 2007, we were awarded Best Retention Strategies at the Hong Kong HRM Awards 2007.

Limited to Hong Kong Television Network Limited will be considered at our extraordinary general meeting to be held on December 31, 2012.



|B. | Business overview
|-- | -----------------

Principal
Activities

Prior to May 2012, we principally engaged in providing residential and corporate fixed telecommunications
network and international telecommunications services in Hong Kong and in Canada. We derived our revenue from two business segments, the FTNS Business and the IDD Business. In March and April 2012, we entered into the Telecom Group Agreement and
Guangzhou Agreement, and in May 2012 we disposed of the entire FTNS Business and IDD Business. Since then, the Multimedia Production Business has become our principal focus. The Multimedia Production Business includes the production, sales and
distribution of Cantonese television drama series, news programmes and other television programmes. It will also include the offering of domestic free television programming services in Hong Kong, subject to the grant of the domestic free television
programme service licence by the Chief Executive in Council.

Based on our current plan, the Multimedia Production Business is
expected to generate revenue during 2013 which will comprise advertising fees and licensing fees, assuming the Multimedia Production Business is able to start broadcasting over its free television channels or through alternative means. The
Multimedia Production Business generated HK$3.8 million of revenue in fiscal 2012, which mainly represented the licensing fee received from the Telecom Business to broadcast the news content produced by the news production operation unit and the
income received from our artiste management functions.

Strategy and Competitive Strengths

Our vision is to unleash the creative potential of drama production in Hong Kong and to support the nurture of large numbers of writers in
the coming years, so as to bring Hong Kong back to the position of Asian drama production hub.

We believe that our success in
the Multimedia Production Business will depend on our ability to capitalize on the following key strengths:



| |  |  | Recruitment of top-tier talents in the multimedia industry. Since mid-2011, we have embarked on a large scale recruiting process to acquire
top-tier talents in the multimedia industry. From creative directors to post-production professionals, we now have a professional team of more than 500 talents together with about 220 artistes. At present, we have completed shooting for four
television drama series and have four other series in progress. These series range from 10 to 30 hours in duration. Our talents are also engaged in the production of news programmes and a wide spectrum of infotainment and variety programmes.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | Creative driven production. To encourage variety and quality in our content production, we intend to extend the creative period for television
drama series from approximately three months to approximately six months to enable a much larger room for greater creativity and more possibilities.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | First-class production facilities. We are committed to investing resources in first-class production facilities. After our groundbreaking
ceremony in February 2012, the construction of the Centre reached a milestone in October 2012 when we completed the foundation work. We are now in the tendering stage on superstructural work. Once completed, the Centre will possess gross floor area
of approximately 500,000 square feet and consist of 12 studios, including an 18,000 square feet studio which is expected to be the largest in Hong Kong and smaller studios of 3,000 square feet each. Construction work is expected to be completed in
2014. The Centre will be our headquarter. In addition to the Centre, we also invest Hollywood movie grade production equipment. We believe we are the first in the free television platform to use Hollywood grade ARRI cameras for television drama
series production in Hong Kong. We also intend to have post-production facilities and technology compatible with 3D, 4k or even 8k super-high standards.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Procurement of high-quality television contents. In addition to programmes produced in-house, we also purchased popular and high quality
contents from Japan, Korea and Mainland China, including television drama series and cartoons. To cater to local audience, we maintain a professional team for language dubbing and subtitling post-production. As of August 31, 2012, we had more
than 850 episodes of purchased contents in our library. With the assumption that we can start broadcasting in the second half of 2013, we intend to double our 2012 production output on television drama series, infotainment and variety programmes in
2013.

Recent Developments

On December 31, 2009, we submitted an application for the domestic free television programme service licence in Hong Kong to the HKBA. If granted, such licence would allow us to provide free
television programme services in Hong Kong. The HKBA completed the assessment of our application for the domestic free television programme service licence in accordance with the Broadcasting Ordinance and established procedures, and submitted its
recommendation for the grant of licence to the Chief Executive in Council on July 13, 2011. The Chief Executive in Council is still processing the recommendation. As of December 18, 2012, the grant of such licence was still pending.

Aiming to expand its foothold in domestic free television programme services and the Multimedia Production Business, City Telecom is
establishing a world-class Television and Multimedia Production Centre on the land granted by Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation at Tseung Kwan O Industrial Estate. It will produce drama series and a variety of television contents,
in order to support the development of the Groups domestic free television programme services and Multimedia Production Business and the demand and development of the Groups business partners.

The Television and Multimedia Production Centre will have a total estimated gross floor area of approximately 500,000 square feet which
will take City Telecom an investment of at least HK$800.0 million. It is expected to operate in full gear in 2014.

We
commenced construction of the Television and Multimedia Production Centre in February 2012 and in October 2012, we have completed the foundation works for the Centre and has obtained approval from the Buildings Department in Hong Kong. The
construction is under the tender process for the superstructural works.

In May 2012, we disposed of our FTNS Business and IDD
Business.

Sales and marketing

We hold public events such as press conferences, road shows and other celebration ceremonies to promote our new television series. These events feature discussion of the plot of the television series and
other behind-the-scene footages and are attended by our celebrity artistes to attract media coverage. Apart from these traditional marketing events, we also make use of certain popular social networking platforms, such as Facebook and YouTube, to
expose our new television series to a wider group of audience.

To ensure our corporate image aligns with our new focus on the
Multimedia Production Business, we have proposed a change of our name from City Telecom (H.K.) Limited to Hong Kong Television Network Limited. We have also designed a new logo to accompany the proposed name change. The new
logo, visualizing a brain, carries the meaning that the Company represents a different mentality, a different way of thinking and different voices. The new logo does not have a definite color tone, which symbolizes the why not spirit
whereby we do not adhere to the prevailing norm.

Research and development activities

As of August 31, 2012, after the disposal of the Telecom Business, our research and development team in Hong Kong consisted of
approximately 17 Talents experienced in systems design, engineering, mobile technology, and computer programming. Our research and development team is primarily responsible for assessing and adapting the technology that we expect to deploy in our
domestic free television programme services and content distribution, such as through Internet. To identify and develop new market opportunities and product advancement, our research and development team evaluates new technology under development in
the United States and elsewhere and works closely with our production team and marketing department for product development.

Seasonality

Our operations are not expected to subject to significant seasonal fluctuations generally. We do not believe that
seasonality has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Environmental matters

Since our date of incorporation, we have not violated any environmental laws, ordinances or regulations, and believe that all of our
operations comply fully with applicable environmental laws.

Intellectual property rights

We have registered our trademarks with the Trademarks Registry of the Intellectual Property Department in Hong Kong. We maintained
copyright of the self-produced television programmes.



|C. | Regulatory framework
|-- | --------------------

The following is a brief summary of the Hong Kong laws and regulations that currently materially affect our business. This section does
not purport to be a comprehensive summary of all present and proposed regulations and legislation relating to the industries in which we operate.

Prior to April 1, 2012, the Hong Kong broadcasting industry was regulated by the HKBA. In view of the blurring boundaries between telecommunications and broadcasting industries and following the
global trend in converging the two markets, on April 1, 2012, the Communications Authority Ordinance (Cap. 616) came into operation and the HKCA was set up as the unified regulatory body servicing the telecommunications and broadcasting sectors
in Hong Kong. The HKBA was dissolved after the transfer of its statutory powers and functions to the HKCA.

We submitted our
application for the domestic free television programme service licence in Hong Kong to the HKBA on December 31, 2009 and the application is being processed. Once such licence has been granted, we will be regulated by the HKCA through its
executive arm, the Office of the Communications Authority, and our broadcasting operations will be subject to the Broadcasting Ordinance (Cap. 562), the Broadcasting (Miscellaneous Provisions) Ordinance (Cap. 391) and the related subsidiary
legislation, regulations, directions, orders, determinations and codes of practice issued by the HKCA and the licence conditions. The Broadcasting Ordinance governs the content and scope of television programming and the licensing of television
broadcasters.

Television broadcasting industry

At present, Hong Kong has two licensed domestic free television programme broadcasters, Television Broadcasts Limited and Asia Television
Limited, providing free-to-air broadcasting services. In addition, there are also three licensed domestic pay-TV broadcasters, namely Hong Kong Cable Television Limited, PCCW Media Limited and TVB Pay Vision Limited (formerly known as Galaxy
Satellite Broadcasting Limited). Currently, the Chief Executive in Council is processing applications for domestic free television programme service licence from Fantastic Television Limited, HK Television and Entertainment Company Limited and us.
As of December 18, 2012, the Chief Executive in Council had not yet announced its decision for the aforesaid applications.

##### Table of Contents

Licensing

It is unlawful to offer any television programme service in Hong Kong without an appropriate licence. Television programme service is broadly defined to mean the provision of
television programmes for transmission by telecommunications that are readily accessible to the general public in or outside Hong Kong or to persons in two or more specified premises simultaneously or on demand, whether on a point-to-point or a
point-to-multipoint basis (or any combination thereof), having equipment appropriate for receiving that service. The Broadcasting Ordinance exempts certain categories of television programme services from the current licensing regime, including
television programme services provided on the service commonly known as the Internet. The Broadcasting Ordinance itself, however, does not contain a definition of Internet.

Cross media ownership restrictions

As with other television regulatory regimes, there are detailed cross-media ownership restrictions in the Broadcasting Ordinance. The restrictions are only applicable to domestic free and domestic pay
television programme service licences.

The Broadcasting Ordinance essentially provides that a company which is either a
disqualified person or has a disqualified person exercising control over it will not be granted a domestic free and domestic pay television programme service licence unless with the prior approval of the Chief Executive in
Council. Disqualified person includes, for example, a company which is an existing domestic free or domestic pay television programme licensee; an advertising agent; a sound broadcasting licensee; or a proprietor of newspaper printed or
produced in Hong Kong.

Generally, a disqualified person who has disclosed its disqualification in its licence application may
apply for a broadcasting licence. The Broadcasting Ordinance provides that the Chief Executive in Council may grant a broadcasting licence to a company, including a disqualified person or to a company which has a disqualified person exercising
control over it, subject to such conditions as the Chief Executive in Council sees fit.

Foreign ownership restrictions

In addition to the cross-media ownership restrictions outlined above, the Broadcasting Ordinance also imposes restrictions
on foreign ownership of a holder of a domestic free television programme service licence. The restrictions do not prohibit the ownership of any voting shares in a domestic free television programme service licensee but rather take the form of
prohibiting the exercise of any voting rights attached to such voting shares.

Upon receiving a domestic free television
programme service licence, an unqualified voting controller of our Company will be subject to the voting restrictions as set out in Part 3 of Schedule 1 to the Broadcasting Ordinance. An unqualified voting controller under the
Broadcasting Ordinance refers to a voting controller who is not a qualified voting controller, and a qualified voting controller refers to a voting controller who satisfies the ordinary resident requirement and who, in the case of an individual, has
resided in Hong Kong for a period of no less than seven years or in the case of corporation, whose directors satisfy the Hong Kong residency requirement. According to paragraph 20(1) of Schedule 1 to the Broadcasting Ordinance, no unqualified voting
controller may hold, acquire, or exercise or cause or permit to be exercised 2% to 6% or 6% to 10% or more than 10% of the total voting control of a domestic free television programme service licensee without the prior approval of the HKCA. If an
unqualified voting controller holds more than 10%, in the aggregate, of the total voting control of a licensee without the prior approval in writing of the HKCA, notwithstanding anything contained in the memorandum or articles of association of the
licensee or any provision of the laws of Hong Kong apart from this section, he shall not exercise or cause or permit to be exercised, in relation to any question or matter arising at a general meeting of the licensee, voting rights exceeding, in the
aggregate, 10% of the total voting control of the licensee. Paragraph 20(3) of Schedule 1 to the Broadcasting Ordinance provides that the HKCA may, in respect of any unqualified voting controller who is in contravention of such voting restriction,
direct such unqualified voting controller in question to cease any such contravening act. If and when the licence is granted to our Company, an unqualified voting controller may need to seek the requisite approval of the HKCA for exercising its
voting power in our Company. Our Company shall be required to notify the HKCA of the unqualified voting controller pursuant to the directions of the HKCA and paragraphs 22 and 30 of Schedule 1 to the Broadcasting Ordinance

Competition provisions

Currently, competition provisions governing the broadcasting sector in Hong Kong are set out in the Broadcasting Ordinance, which are aimed at prohibiting a licensee from engaging in
anti-competitive conduct and a licensee who is in a dominant position from abusing its position. Anti-competitive conduct is defined as conduct that has the purpose or effect of preventing, distorting or substantially
restricting competition in a television programme service market.

The Broadcasting Ordinance provides that a breach of any of
the competition statutory provisions may lead to the relevant contractual provisions in an agreement being regarded as void.

There is no equivalent of a specialized competition appeal board for the television broadcasting industry. A licensee aggrieved by a
decision made by the HKCA, may appeal by way of petition to the Chief Executive in Council.

Hong Kongs first cross
sector competition legislation, the Competition Ordinance, was enacted on June 14, 2012 and will be implemented in phases commencing on January 18, 2013. The Competition Ordinance spans various industries and sectors and, once it comes
into full operation, will amend or repeal (as applicable) the competition provisions currently in force in the industry-specific legislation. As at the date hereof, the effective dates of the provisions of the Competition Ordinance that affect the
Broadcasting Ordinance have not been gazetted.

##### Table of Contents

Part 8 of Schedule 8 of the Competition Ordinance sets out the detailed amendments to the
competition provisions in the Broadcasting Ordinance. Under such amendments, the relevant competition provisions (sections 13 to 16) in the Broadcasting Ordinance are to be repealed and replaced by the conduct rules under Part 2 of the Competition
Ordinance.

According to Part 11 of the Competition Ordinance, both the HKCA and the Competition Commission are competent
regulators and have concurrent jurisdiction on competition matters relating to telecommunications and broadcasting. The Competition Ordinance also provides a mechanism whereby such telecommunications and broadcasting related competition matters may
be transferred between the HKCA and the Competition Commission. It is envisaged that in addition to the various codes and guidelines on competition related matters issued by the HKCA (and formerly the HKBA), new guidelines will be issued by the
Competition Commission on the interpretation of the conduct rules. The HKCA and the Competition Commission will enter into a Memorandum of Understanding to provide more clarity on the operation of the competition regime in telecommunications and
broadcasting sectors.

Fair Trading

On July 17, 2012, the Trade Descriptions (Unfair Trade Practices) (Amendment) Ordinance 2012 (Amendment Ordinance) was enacted to amend the Trade Descriptions Ordinance by
prohibiting specified unfair trade practices that may be deployed against customers and strengthen the enforcement mechanism. The Customs and Excise Department is the principal enforcement agency under the Trade Descriptions Ordinance. Under the
Amendment Ordinance, the HKCA was conferred with concurrent jurisdiction to enforce the new fair trading sections in relation to the commercial practices of licensees under the Telecommunications Ordinance and the Broadcasting Ordinance that are
directly connected with the provision of telecommunications and broadcasting services. The Amendment Ordinance is expected to come into effect by the second quarter of 2013.

The key amendments introduced in the Amendment Ordinance include:



| |  |  | the expansion of the definition of trade descriptions in relation to goods, as well as the extension of the scope to cover services;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the creation of new criminal offences on unfair trade practices, namely misleading omissions, aggressive commercial practices, bait advertising,
bait-and-switch and wrongly accepting payment;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the introduction of a compliance-based mechanism under which civil enforcement options, namely the acceptance of undertaking from traders and the
seeking of injunction from the court where necessary, can be drawn on to promote compliance with the new fair trading sections introduced by the Amendment Ordinance; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the creation of a new private right of action for damages to facilitate consumer redress.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Amendment Ordinance also confers the Customs and Excise Department and the HKCA, as enforcement agencies, powers to issue guidelines
on relevant fair trading matters. On December 7, 2012, the Customs and Excise Department and the HKCA launched a public consultation on the draft enforcement guidelines Compliance and Enforcement Policy Statement and General
Guidelines (collectively the Enforcement Guidelines) concerning the Amendment Ordinance. The draft Enforcement Guidelines set out the manner in which the two enforcement agencies will exercise their powers under the new fair
trading sections of the Amendment Ordinance and providing guidance on the operation of the provisions for compliance by traders. The consultation will last for six weeks till January 17, 2013.

Programme standards, advertising standards and technical standards

In addition to the Broadcasting Ordinance, the Broadcasting (Miscellaneous Provisions) Ordinance and the related subsidiary legislation,
regulations, directions, orders and determinations, a television programme service licensee is required to comply with the terms and conditions of their licence and the codes of practice issued by the HKCA, which set out generic standards with
respect to programme, advertising and technical standards applicable to the licensee. The Generic Codes of Practice for Television currently comprises of three sets of standards, i.e. the programme standards, the advertising standards and the
technical standards. These codes are reviewed in consultation with the licensees and the general public. The latest programme standards and the advertising standards were both issued in April 2012 and the latest technical standards were issued in
October 2012.

Non-compliance by licensee

Non-compliance by a licensee with the Broadcasting Ordinance, any subsidiary legislation made pursuant to it, any of the licence conditions or any direction issued by HKCA or any of the code of practice,
could result in the revocation or suspension of the relevant licence. The Broadcasting Ordinance contains a set of provisions setting forth the procedural steps which HKCA and the Chief Executive in Council must adhere to prior to revoking or
suspending any broadcasting licences.

ITEM 5 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

You should read the following discussion together with the rest of this annual report, including the consolidated financial statements
and related notes included elsewhere in this annual report. The results discussed below are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any future periods.

##### Table of Contents

|A. | Operating results
|-- | -----------------

Overview

Prior to May 2012, we principally engaged in providing residential and corporate fixed telecommunications network service
and international telecommunications services in Hong Kong and in Canada. We derived our revenue from two business segments, the FTNS Business and the IDD Business. In March and April 2012, we entered into the Telecom Group Agreement and the
Guangzhou Agreement and in May 2012, we disposed of the entire FTNS Business and IDD Business. Since then, the Multimedia Production Business has become our principal focus. The Multimedia Production Business includes the production, sales and
distribution of Cantonese television drama series, news programmes and other television programmes. It will also include the offering of television programming services in Hong Kong, subject to the grant of the domestic free television programme
service licence by the Chief Executive in Council. The operating results of the disposed Telecom Business and the Multimedia Production Business have been presented, as discontinued operations and continuing operations, respectively, in our
consolidated financial statements.

Factors affecting our results of continuing operations

Our revenues

Based on our current plan, the Multimedia Production Business is expected to generate revenue during 2013 which will mainly comprise advertising fees and licensing fees, assuming the Multimedia Production
Business is able to start broadcasting over its free television channels or through alternative means. In fiscal 2012, our revenue represented the licence fee received from the Telecom Business for providing news content produced by the news
production operation unit and the income received from our artiste management functions.

Our operating expenses

Our operating expenses consist of cost of sales and other operating expenses.



| |  |  | Cost of sales. Cost of sales refers to talent costs and other production costs which are directly attributable to the revenue generated from
licensing of programme rights and provision of artiste management services.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other operating expenses. Other operating expenses mainly consist of salaries and related costs for Talents which are not capitalized as
programme costs and for corporate functions, depreciation of fixed assets, amortisation of intangible assets, bank charges and operating lease charges in respect of land and buildings.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Critical accounting policies

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in the annual report.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make estimates and judgments
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates and judgments including those related to fixed assets, intangible assets,
programme cost and deferred taxes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. This forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates as facts, circumstances and conditions change. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Changes
to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is changed if the change affects only that period or in the period of the change and future periods if the change affects both current and future periods.

As our financial statements are prepared under IFRSs, our accounting policies are necessarily compliant with all aspects of IFRSs. IFRSs
are based on a substance over form conceptual framework that requires us to look through the legal interpretation of an arrangement or transaction to its underlying purpose and to reflect it in our consolidated financial statements on
that basis.

The following are the most significant accounting estimates and judgments we apply in preparing our consolidated
financial statements.

Useful lives of fixed assets

We estimate the useful lives of fixed assets in order to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded. The useful life of
an asset is estimated at the time the asset is acquired based on historical experience, the expected usage, wear and tear of the asset, as well as technical obsolescence arising from changes in the market demands or service output of the asset.
Changes in technology or industry conditions may cause the estimated period of use or the value of these assets to change. We perform periodic reviews to confirm the appropriateness of estimated economic useful lives for each class of fixed assets.
For the three years ended August 31, 2012, there were no changes in the useful lives of our fixed assets.



17

##### Table of Contents

Intangible assets

Upon the completion of the disposal of the Telecom Business and as part of the consideration received from the disposal, we were granted
the indefeasible right of use of telecommunications capacity of the Telecom Business for a term of 20 years and right to use of the telecommunications services from the Telecom Business for a term of 10 years.

The fair value of these intangible assets as at the completion date of the disposal was determined with reference to comparable market
transactions.

Intangible assets acquired by us are stated at cost less accumulated amortization (where the estimated useful
life is finite) and impairment losses.

Amortization of intangible assets with finite useful lives is charged to profit or
loss on a straight-line basis over the assets estimated useful lives.

Both the period and method of amortization are
reviewed annually.

Impairment of fixed assets

Under IFRSs, if a triggering event occurs indicating that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, a new assessment of the
carrying amount of that asset is required. Triggering events include significant adverse changes in the market value of an asset, changes in the business or regulatory environment, or certain legal events. The interpretation of such events requires
judgment from the management with respect to whether such an event has occurred and whether management considers that reassessment of the carrying value of the asset is required. If an event occurs that could affect the carrying value of the asset
and management does not identify it as a triggering event and identify the asset as impaired, future operations could be adversely affected if this asset is subsequently written off or sold for less than its carrying value due to sudden downturns in
the business environment.

Upon the occurrence of triggering events, the carrying amounts of fixed assets are reviewed to
assess whether their recoverable amounts have declined below their carrying amounts. Under IFRSs, the recoverable amount is the greater of its fair value less costs of sales and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash
flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of time value of money and the risks specific to the assets. Where the asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent of
those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e. cash-generating-unit). Where the recoverable amount of fixed and other long-lived assets is less than
their carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized to write down the assets to their recoverable amount, which is based on the fair value less costs to sell or value in use.

Estimation of cash flows arising from future use of the asset requires careful analysis regarding what we expect to recover from its
future use. This includes consideration of our target market share and viewership, market competition, future changes to our cost structure and technological change. In addition, the residual value of the asset on disposal requires judgment, as the
estimated fair value of the asset at the time of disposal could change in response to market conditions and changes in expected use of the asset prior to disposal. Changes in the estimate of cash flows arising from expected future use of the asset
or its residual value on disposal - based on changes in market conditions, changes in the use of assets, management plan, and foreseeable technological changes or otherwise - could significantly change the calculation of the fair value or
recoverable amount of the asset and the resulting impairment loss. This in turn could significantly affect the results of our operations.

For the three years ended August 31, 2012, no impairment of fixed assets has been recognized.

Programme costs

Programme costs are stated at cost less amounts
expensed and any provision considered necessary by management. Programme costs are charged to the profit or loss over the showing or licensing period of the programme, with reference to the projected revenue.

- Self-produced Programmes

Self-produced programmes consist primarily of drama, infotainment and variety programmes. Cost of self-produced programmes comprises direct production cost and an appropriate proportion of production
overheads.

- Purchased Programmes

Purchased programmes consist film rights acquired for showing on the Groups television channel. Cost of purchased programme comprises cost of purchase, cost of conversion and an appropriate
proportion of production overheads.

##### Table of Contents

Deferred taxation

We recognized deferred tax assets for all deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry forwards to the extent it is probable
that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. The recognition of deferred tax assets requires judgment regarding the results of future operations, including the assumption that there will be sufficient future
operations to allow us to utilize the related deferred tax assets. Our management projects future taxable income by considering all available information, including projected future taxable profit by taking into consideration of the effect of our
capital expenditures and other plans (such as the technological changes and future market trends), tax planning strategies, historical taxable incomes, and the expiration period of the unused tax losses carry forwards of each of our Company and
subsidiaries.

As of August 31, 2011 and 2012, we had not recognized deferred tax assets in respect of unused tax losses
of HK$8.1 million and HK$59.8 million respectively, because it was not probable that future taxable profits could be generated to utilize the tax losses. All tax losses are subject to agreement with local tax authorities. Any changes in the estimate
of future operations could change the recognition of our deferred tax assets, which could significantly affect our results of operations.

Operating Results

The
following table sets forth, for the years indicated, a summary of our results of operations.

Fiscal 2012
Compared to Fiscal 2011

Revenue. We commenced our Multimedia Production Business and disposed of our
Telecom Business in fiscal 2012. Our revenue from the Multimedia Production Business primarily consists of licensing fees and artiste management fee. We recorded revenue of HK$3.8 million in fiscal 2012, primarily reflecting the licensing fee
received from the Telecom Business to broadcast the news content produced by the news production operation unit and the income received from our artiste management functions. We had no revenue for fiscal 2011 for the continuing operations relating
to our Multimedia Production Business.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales in fiscal 2012 were HK$6.0 million,
primarily consisting of talent costs and other production costs which are directly attributable to the revenue generated from licensing of programme rights and provision of artiste management services. There were no cost of sales in fiscal 2011 for
the continuing operations.

Valuation gains on investment properties. Valuation gains on investment properties
were HK$18.2 million, consisting of the change in fair value of the investment properties held by us.

Other operating
expenses. Our other operating expenses increased to HK$105.0 million in fiscal 2012 from HK$23.5 million in fiscal 2011. The increase is mainly due to increased talent costs and other operating expenses. The increase in talent costs is
mainly attributable to uncapitalized expenses from the Multimedia Production Business, which represented talent costs expensed to profits and losses before the resources are fully deployed to production during the year and the maintenance of full
corporate functions after the disposal of Telecom Business. The increase in other operating expenses mainly includes bank charges, operating lease charges in respect of land and buildings, legal and professional fee and amortization of intangible
assets.

Other income, net. Other income, net increased to HK$19.9 million in fiscal 2012 from
HK$3.5 million in fiscal 2011 mainly due to the increase in interest income from banks arising from term deposits placed with banks after receiving the final consideration from the sale of the Telecom Business.

Finance costs, net. Finance costs, net decreased to HK$2.5 million in fiscal 2012 from HK$7.3 million in fiscal 2011. The
decrease is primarily due to the repayment of long-term bank loans in fiscal 2011. As a result of the repayment, items recorded in 2011, such as interest expenses, amortization of upfront costs on bank borrowings and write-off of upfront costs on
bank borrowings, became nil in fiscal 2012.

Income tax expenses. We recorded income tax expenses of HK$2.3
million, which included non-cash deferred tax expenses of HK$1.3 million, in fiscal 2012, compared to income tax expenses of HK$4.8 million in fiscal 2011, which represented non-cash deferred tax expenses.

Net loss. Net loss increased to HK$73.8 million in fiscal 2012 from HK$32.1 million in fiscal 2011, primarily because we
incurred start-up costs while no material revenue was generated by the Multimedia Production Business and other operating expenses had increased as mentioned above.

Discontinued operations. The disposal of Telecom Business was completed on May 30, 2012. The operating results of the disposed Telecom Business up to the disposal date have been
presented as discontinued operations on this Form 20-F. For a detailed discussion of discontinued operations, see Item 18: Financial StatementsNotes to Consolidated Financial StatementsNote 2.

Fiscal 2011 Compared to Fiscal 2010

Following the disposal of our Telecom Business in May 2012, the Telecom business was retrospectively reclassified as discontinued operations for fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010. Since all revenue, cost of
sales and valuation gains on investment properties for fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010 were from the Telecom Business, the reclassification had rendered these items nil for our continuing operations in fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010.

Other operating expenses. Other operating expenses increased by 7.1% to HK$23.5 million in fiscal 2011 from HK$21.9 million
in fiscal 2010.

Set forth below is a table summarizing the details of our other operating expenses in fiscal 2010 and 2011:

##### Table of Contents

Other income/loss, net. We recorded other net income of HK$3.5 million in
fiscal 2011, compared to other net loss of HK$7.7 million in fiscal 2010. The other net loss was mainly due to the loss on extinguishment of our 10-year senior notes of HK$9.7 million in fiscal 2010.

Finance costs. Finance costs decreased by 65.7% to HK$7.3 million in fiscal 2011 from HK$21.3 million in fiscal 2010. The
decrease was mainly due to full year impact of the finance cost savings through repurchase and redemption of our 10-year senior notes in fiscal 2010.

Income tax expense. We recorded an income tax expense of HK$4.8 million in fiscal 2011, compared to HK$5.6 million in fiscal 2010. Our income tax expense represented non-cash deferred tax
expenses in both fiscal 2011 and 2010.

Net loss. For the foregoing reasons, net loss decreased to HK$32.1
million in fiscal 2011 from HK$56.5 million in fiscal 2010.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements under IFRSs have been included in note 31 to our consolidated financial
statements.



|B. | Liquidity and capital resources
|-- | -------------------------------

We continued to be in a strong financial position for the year under review, in particular after receiving the final consideration of HK$4,873.6 million from the sale of Telecom Business during the year,
which provided us with a net cash inflow of HK$4,655.4 million after netting transaction costs of HK$183.4 million and disposal of cash and cash equivalents of HK$34.8 million. A special dividend of HK$2,022.5 million (i.e. at HK$2.5 per ordinary
share) was distributed on June 29, 2012. The remaining cash will be used to fund the continuing development and expansion of our Multimedia Production Business. Pending such use of the funds, consistent with the overall treasury objectives and
policy, the Group will undertake treasury management activities with respect to its surplus cash assets. As and when cash is expected to be required to fund the continuing development and expansion of the Multimedia Production Business, the
investments will be realized as appropriate.

As of August 31, 2012, we had total cash at bank and in hand and term
deposits amounting to HK$2,627.1 million, compared to HK$409.0 million as of August 31, 2011, and outstanding borrowings of HK$3.3 million, compared to HK$1.2 million as of August 31, 2011. This led to an increase of our net cash position
to HK$2,623.8 million as of August 31, 2012 from HK$407.8 million as of August 31, 2011. As of August 31, 2012, we had utilized HK$2.0 million banking facilities mainly to provide bank guarantees to utility vendors in lieu of utility
deposits, compared to HK$6.9 million as of August 31, 2011, leaving HK$21.3 million available for future utilization.

We
believe that our current cash and cash equivalents and term deposits on hand will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs, including working capital requirements, capital expenditures, repayment of our indebtedness when fall due and various
contractual obligations, for at least the next 12 months.

Operating activities

Prior to the disposal of the Telecom Business, our principal source of cash was cash generated from our FTNS and IDD business. Net cash
inflow from operating activities increased 20.7% from HK$485.3 million in fiscal 2010 to HK$585.9 million in fiscal 2011, primarily reflecting the increase in our profit before taxation resulting from the expansion of our subscription base. Net cash
inflow from operating activities decreased by 69.0% from HK$585.9 million in fiscal 2011 to HK$181.9 million in fiscal 2012, primarily reflecting the decrease in our profit before taxation as we only recorded nine months of operating results from
the discontinued operations resulting from the disposal of Telecom Business and the start up costs for Multimedia Production Business.

Investing activities

Net cash inflow from investing activities in fiscal
2012 was HK$3,681.8 million, mainly representing the proceeds from the disposal of the Telecom Business (net of cash disposed of), net of increase in term deposits of HK$554.0 million and purchase of fixed assets of HK$467.8 million.

Net cash outflow from investing activities in fiscal 2011 was HK$414.2 million. The net cash outflow was mainly due to the purchase of
fixed assets of HK$397.9 million for the development of our Next Generation Network and the purchase of land premium of HK$48.0 million for constructing a Television and Multimedia Production Centre.

Net cash outflow from investing activities in fiscal 2010 was HK$306.3 million. The net cash outflow was mainly due to our purchase of
fixed assets in the amount of HK$349.1 million.

Financing activities

Net cash outflow from financing activities in fiscal 2012 was HK$2,191.7 million. The net cash outflow was mainly attributable to the
payment of cash dividends of HK$2,257.8 million.

Net cash outflow from financing activities in fiscal 2011 was HK$343.1
million. The net cash outflow was mainly due to our repayment of our bank loan of HK$125 million and payment of cash dividends of HK$219.3 million.

Net cash inflow from financing activities in fiscal 2010 was HK$178.3 million. The net cash inflow was mainly due to the proceeds from the offering of new ordinary shares in the amount of HK$396.4 million
and the proceeds from new bank loans of HK$163.4 million, which were partially offset by the repurchase and redemption of our 10-year senior notes of HK$172.4 million and dividend paid of HK$158.4 million.

Indebtedness

As of August 31, 2012, we had outstanding debt of HK$3.3 million.

Banking facilities

As of August 31, 2012, we had available banking facilities and revolving loan facility of HK$23.3 million, of which HK$2.0 million was utilized.

Capital expenditures

In fiscal 2012, we spent HK$462.4 million on capital expenditure versus HK$449.2 million in fiscal 2011. Within the amount incurred in fiscal 2012, HK$178.8 million was incurred for the Multimedia
Production Business mainly for the construction of the Television and Multimedia Production Centre and for the set-up of production facilities for television drama series and infotainment and variety programmes. The remaining HK$283.6 million was
for the disposed Telecom Business.

For the construction of the Centre and the expansion into the Multimedia Production
Business pending the grant of licence, our capital expenditure outlook for fiscal 2013 is expected to be about HK$700.0 million, which is expected to be funded by internal resources retained from the consideration received from the disposal of the
Telecom Business and banking facilities within the Group. Overall, the Groups financial position remains sound for continuous business expansion.

such share option schemes will not be counted for the purpose of the 10% limit. Such limit may be refreshed upon approval by shareholders and compliance with all requirements under the HKSE Listing Rules. Pursuant thereto, such limit was refreshed
with the approval of our shareholders in our annual general meetings held on December 29, 2004 and December 24, 2007 respectively up to a maximum limit equal to 10% of our total number of issued shares as of the date of the said general
meetings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of ordinary shares which may be issued upon exercise of all outstanding options granted and yet to be exercised under our 2002 Share Option Scheme and any of our other share option scheme(s) at any
time shall not exceed 30% of the total number of ordinary shares in issue from time to time.

The total number of ordinary
shares issued and which may be issued upon exercise in full of the options granted under our 2002 Share Option Scheme and any of our other share option scheme(s) (including exercised, cancelled and outstanding options) to each eligible participant
in any 12-month period up to and including the date of grant shall not exceed 1% of the outstanding ordinary shares as of the date of grant. Any further grant of options in excess of this 1% limit must be approved by shareholders.

The subscription price for an ordinary share payable by a participant upon the exercise of any option granted under the 2002 Share Option
Scheme will be determined by our board of directors in its absolute discretion, except that such price will not be less than the highest of (a) the closing price of the ordinary shares as stated in the HKSEs daily quotations sheet on the
date of grant, which must be a business day; (b) the average of the closing prices of the ordinary shares as stated in the HKSEs daily quotations sheets for the five business days immediately preceding the date of grant; and (c) the
nominal value of an ordinary share.

Any grant of options to any of our directors, chief executives or substantial
shareholders or any of their respective associates (as defined in the HKSE Listing Rules) is required to be approved by our non-grantee independent non-executive directors. If we propose to grant options to a substantial shareholder or any of its
independent non-executive directors, or their respective associates, which will result in the number of ordinary shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of options granted and to be granted under our 2002 Share Option Scheme and any of our
other share option scheme(s) (including options exercised, cancelled and outstanding) to such person in the 12-month period up to and including the date of such grant (a) representing in aggregate over 0.1% of the outstanding ordinary shares;
and (b) having an aggregate value in excess of HK$5 million, based on the closing price of the ordinary shares at the date of each grant, such further grant of options will be subject to approval by shareholders and all requirements under the
HKSE Listing Rules.

A grant of options may not be made after a price sensitive event has occurred or a price sensitive matter
has been the subject of a decision until such price sensitive information, including annual and interim results, has been made public.

directors in its absolute discretion, except that no option may be exercised later than 10 years from the date of grant. No option may be granted more than 10 years after December 23, 2002. Subject to our earlier termination, the 2002 Share
Option Scheme shall be valid and effective for a period of 10 years after the date of adoption, that is, until December 23, 2012. In addition and to the extent not already exercised, an option will automatically lapse and not be exercisable

determined by our board of directors, on any other common law, statutory or contractual ground on which an employer would be entitled to terminate such grantees employment;

no options were granted, 37,104,790 options were exercised, 893 options were lapsed and no options remain outstanding and unexercised.

The
2012 Share Option Scheme

On December 5, 2012, we circulated a notice to our shareholders that the extraordinary
general meeting of the Company to be held on December 31, 2012 will consider the adoption of the 2012 Share Option Scheme, the proposed terms of which are set out below.

Under the rules of the 2012 Share Option Scheme, there is no general requirement of any minimum period for which an option must be held before it can be exercised although the Board will be empowered
under the 2012 Share Option Scheme to impose at its discretion any such minimum period at the time of grant of any particular option. In addition, the Board will be empowered to determine the exercise price of a Share in respect of any particular
option granted under the 2012 Share Option Scheme so that the selected participants are attracted to subscribe the Shares pursuant to the options granted by the Company as incentives and rewards for their contribution or potential contribution to
the Group and will further contribute towards the profitability and success of the Group. There is also no general requirement under the 2012 Share Option Scheme for any performance target which a grantee has to achieve before any option can be
exercised under the 2012 Share Option Scheme although the Board has the discretion, in order to encourage any grantee to further the interests and objectives of the Company, to require a grantee to achieve certain performance targets specified at
the time of grant before any option granted under the 2012 Share Option Scheme can be exercised.

The Company is not required
to appoint any trustee for the purpose of administering the 2012 Share Option Scheme. The 2012 Share Option Scheme will be subject to administration of the Board. None of the Directors is or will be a trustee of the 2012 Share Option Scheme or have
a direct or indirect interest in any such trustee.

##### Table of Contents

To the best knowledge of the Directors, as at November 30, 2012, the latest practicable
date prior to the printing of the notice dated December 5, 2012 (the Latest Practicable Date), no Shareholders have a material interest in the 2012 Share Option Scheme different to that of any other Shareholders and accordingly, no
Shareholders will have to abstain from voting at the extraordinary general meeting on the resolution approving the adoption of the 2012 Share Option Scheme.

Adoption of the 2012 Share Option Scheme is conditional upon (i) the passing of an ordinary resolution by the Shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting approving the adoption of the 2012
Share Option Scheme; and (ii) the Listing Committee of the HKSE granting the approval for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Shares or any part thereof falling to be issued and allotted upon exercise of the Options granted under the
2012 Share Option Scheme.

Application will be made to the Listing Committee of the HKSE for the approval of the listing of,
and permission to deal in, the Shares representing ten (10) per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of the extraordinary general meeting which may fall to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of options to be
granted under the 2012 Share Option Scheme.

The Directors consider that it is not appropriate to state the value of all
options that can be granted pursuant to the 2012 Share Option Scheme as if they had been granted at the Latest Practicable Date prior to the approval of the 2012 Share Option Scheme given that the variables such as the exercise price, exercise
period, interest rate, expected volatility and other relevant variables cannot be available for calculating the value of the options. The Directors believe that any calculation of the value of the options as at the Latest Practicable Date based on a
great number of speculative assumptions would not be meaningful and the results thereof may be misleading to the Shareholders in the circumstances.

Subject to the obtaining of the Shareholders approval with respect to the adoption of the 2012 Share Option Scheme, pursuant to the HKSE Listing Rules, the total number of Shares which may be issued
upon the exercise of all Options to be granted under the 2012 Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes of the Company must not, in aggregate, exceed ten (10) per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of
approval of the 2012 Share Option Scheme. The Board shall not grant any Options which would result in the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all outstanding options granted but yet to be exercised under the 2012
Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes adopted by the Company which provide for the grant of options to acquire or subscribe for Shares exceeding, in aggregate, thirty (30) per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company
from time to time.

Based on 809,016,643 Shares in issue as at Latest Practicable Date and assuming that there is no change in
the issued share capital of the Company between the Latest Practicable Date to the extraordinary general meeting (i.e. the Adoption Date), the maximum number of Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of Options that may be granted pursuant to
the 2012 Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes (i.e. the 2002 Share Option Scheme) will be 80,901,664 Shares, representing ten (10) per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company in issue as at Latest Practicable Date.

Described below is a summary of certain provisions of our existing Articles and, where relevant, the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. As this is a summary, it does not contain all the information that may

the business of telecommunications services in addition to various other related and unrelated business activities.

Directors
interests

A director shall not vote on, or be counted in the quorum in relation to, any resolution of our board of
directors in respect of any contract in which the director or any of his associate(s) (within the meaning of the HKSE Listing Rules) has a material interest. This prohibition shall not apply to the following:

retirement, death or disability benefits scheme which relates both to directors (or his associate(s)) and Talents of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and does not provide in respect of any director or his associate(s), as such any privilege or
advantage not generally accorded to the class of persons to which such scheme or fund relates; and

Dividends

In accordance with our Articles, we may by ordinary resolution (being a resolution passed by a majority of those votes cast by the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting) from time to time
declare dividends, but no dividend shall exceed the amount recommended by our board of directors. Our Articles contain provisions on apportioning dividends according to the amounts paid up on the shares in respect of which dividend is paid under pro
rata basis during the period covered by the dividend.

In accordance with our Articles, our board of directors may pay such
interim dividends that appear to be justified by our financial position and may also pay any dividend payable at a fixed rate at intervals decided upon by our board of directors, whenever our financial position, in the opinion of our board of
directors, justifies the payment.

In respect of any dividend proposed to be paid or declared, our board of directors may
further propose and announce prior to or at the same time as the payment or declaration of such dividend either that:



| | (a) | such dividend be satisfied in whole or in part in the form of an allotment of shares to the shareholders, credited as being fully paid up, provided that all the
shareholders entitled to receive the dividend will also be entitled to choose to receive the dividend (or a part of it) in cash; or
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | the shareholders entitled to such dividend are entitled to elect to receive an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up instead of the whole or part of the cash
dividend our board of directors may decide upon.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any general meeting declaring a dividend may, upon the
recommendation of our board of directors, by ordinary resolution, direct that the dividend shall be met, wholly or partly, by the distribution of our assets.

Any dividend not claimed by a shareholder after a period of six years from the date when it was first due to be paid shall be forfeited and shall revert to us. The payment by our board of directors of any
unclaimed dividend, interest or other sum payable on or in respect of a share into a separate account shall not create any trustee relationship in respect of such sums.

Liquidation

Subject to the requirements under the Hong Kong Companies
Ordinance, in the event of a members winding up, the liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution of the Company:



| | (a) | divide among the shareholders the whole or any part of the assets of the Company and set such value as the liquidator deems fair upon any property to be divided and
determine how the division shall be carried out between the shareholders; or
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator shall think fit, but no shareholder shall
be compelled to accept any shares or other assets upon which there is any liability.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Annual and extraordinary general
meeting of shareholders

The Hong Kong Companies Ordinance requires our board of directors to hold an annual general
meeting of our shareholders once every year and not more than 15 months after our previous annual general meeting. The annual general meeting and any other general meeting of our shareholder held for the passing of a special resolution (being a
resolution passed by not less than 75% of those votes cast by the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting) should be convened by not less than 21 clear days notice in writing. The notice shall specify the place, date and time of
meeting and the general nature of the business to be transacted. An annual general meeting may be called by not less than 20 clear business days notice if it is agreed by all shareholders entitled to attend and vote at the meeting. The
business of the annual general meeting will include:



| | (a) | the declaration and sanctioning of dividends;
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------



| | (b) | the consideration and adoption of the accounts, balance sheet and reports of the directors and auditors and other documents required to be attached to the financial
statements;
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | the appointment of directors in place of those retiring (by rotation or otherwise);
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | the appointment of auditors; and
| | --- | --------------------------------



| | (e) | the fixing of, or the determining of the method of fixing, the remuneration of the directors and of the auditors.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

Our board of directors may convene an extraordinary general meeting (which is any general
meeting of the shareholders other than the annual general meeting) whenever it thinks fit and must do so upon the request in writing of shareholders holding not less than one-twentieth of our paid-up capital carrying the right to vote at a general
meeting. All extraordinary general meetings (other than those convened for the passing of a special resolution referred to above) should be convened by at not less than 10 clear business days notice in writing. Extraordinary general meetings
may be called by less than 10 clear business days notice by a majority in number of the shareholders having the right to attend and vote at the meeting, being a majority together holding not less than 95% in nominal value of the shares giving
that right.

Except as otherwise provided by our Articles, two shareholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote
shall be a quorum for all purposes. Whilst no business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present when the meeting proceeds to business, the absence of a quorum shall not preclude the choice or appointment of a chairman
which shall not be treated as part of the business of the meeting.

The Nasdaq marketplace rules also provide that a foreign
private issuer such as us may be granted an exemption from such requirements if it follows the practice of its home country.

Restrictions
on ownership of shares

There are no restrictions, either pursuant to our Articles or to the laws of Hong Kong, on the
rights of non-residents of Hong Kong or foreign persons to hold or exercise voting rights with respect to our ordinary shares.

Voting
rights

Any decisions that are made by the shareholders in a general meeting require the passing of either an ordinary or a
special resolution at such meeting. The type of resolution required to be passed depends upon the provisions of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and our Articles as certain matters may only be decided by the passing of a special resolutions.

Unless any shares have special terms as to voting, on a show of hands every shareholder who is present in person at a general
meeting, shall have one vote irrespective of the number of shares he holds and on a poll every shareholder who is present in person or by proxy shall have one vote for every share of which he is the holder. Our Articles set out the circumstances in
which a poll can be demanded.

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the HKSE Listing Rules which became effective on January 1,
2009, any votes of the Shareholders at a general meeting must be taken by poll.

Any shareholder that is a recognized clearing
house within the meaning of the Securities and Futures Ordinance of Hong Kong may authorize such person or persons as it thinks fit to act as its representative (or representatives) at any general meeting or at any separate meeting of any class of
shareholders (if relevant). However, if more than one person is authorized, the authorization must specify the number and class of shares in respect of which each person is in fact authorized. The authorized person will be entitled to exercise the
same power on behalf of the recognized clearing house as that clearing house (or its nominees) could exercise if it were an individual shareholder of the Company.

Issue of shares

Under the Companies Ordinance, our board of directors may,
without the prior approval of the shareholders, offer to issue new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their current shareholdings. Our board of directors may not issue new shares in any other way without the prior approval of the
shareholders. Any such approval given in a general meeting shall continue in force until the earlier of: (1) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting; or (2) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general
meeting is required by law to be held; or (3) when revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the shareholders in a general meeting. Where such shareholders approval is given, subject to the HKSE Listing Rules and any conditions
attached to such approval, our unissued shares may be at the disposal of our board of directors, which may offer, allot, grant options over or otherwise dispose of them to such persons, at such times and for such consideration and upon such terms
and conditions as the directors may decide.

Subject to the provisions of our Articles, any shareholder may transfer all or
any of his shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or in such other form as our board of directors may accept and may approve. Such instrument may be signed by hand or, if the buyer or seller is a clearing house or its
nominee(s), signed by hand or by a machine imprinted signature or by such other manner as our board of directors may approve from time to time.

##### Table of Contents

The instrument of transfer of a share shall be executed by or on behalf of both the buyer
and the seller of that share provided that our board of directors may dispense with the signing of the instrument of transfer by the buyer in any case which it thinks fit in its discretion to do so. Except as provided in the paragraph above, our
board of directors may also decide, either generally or in any particular case, upon request by either the buyer or seller of shares to accept mechanically signed transfers. The seller shall be deemed to remain the holder of the share until the name
of the buyer is entered into our register in respect of that share. All instruments of transfer, when registered, may be retained by us. Nothing in our Articles prevents our board of directors from recognizing a renunciation of the allotment or
provisional allotment of any share by the person to whom the shares were to be allotted in favor of some other person.

Our
board of directors may in its absolute discretion and without giving any reason, decline to register any transfer of any share which is not a fully paid share.

Our board of directors may also decline to register any transfer unless:



| | (a) | the instrument of transfer, duly stamped, is lodged with us accompanied by the certificate for the shares to which it relates and such other evidence as our board of
directors may reasonably require to show the right of the seller to make the transfer;
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | such fee, not more than the maximum amount allowed by the HKSE from time to time, as our board of directors may from time to time require is paid to us in respect of
it;
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of share;
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | in the case of a transfer of a share jointly held by two or more holders, the number of joint holders to whom the share is to be transferred does not exceed four; and
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (e) | the shares concerned are free of any lien in favor of us.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------

If our board of directors declines to register a transfer of any share, it shall, within two months after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged, send to the buyer notice of the refusal.

Shareholders

In accordance with our Articles, only persons who are registered in our register of members are recognized by us as shareholders and
absolute owners of the shares. The register of members may be closed by our board of directors at such times and for such periods as it may from time to time decide by giving notice in accordance with the HKSE Listing Rules, but the register shall
be closed in any year for not more than 30 days (excluding Sundays and public holidays) unless extended by ordinary resolution.

Variations
of Rights of Shares

Subject to the Companies Ordinance, all or any of the rights for the time being attached to any class
of shares for the time being issued may from time to time (whether or not the Company is being wound up) be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than three-fourths in nominal value of the issued shares of that class or with
the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of such shares.



|C. | Material contracts
|-- | ------------------

Other
than such contracts as are described in our disclosure in Item 4 Information on the Company, we have not entered into any material contracts outside the ordinary course of our business within the two years preceding the date of this
annual report.



|D. | Exchange controls
|-- | -----------------

The
Basic Law of Hong Kong provides that the Hong Kong dollar will remain the legal tender in Hong Kong after July 1, 1997. The Basic Law also provides that no foreign exchange control policies will be applied in Hong Kong and that the Hong Kong
dollar will be freely convertible. During the Asia regional economic crisis in 1998, however, the Hong Kong government intervened on several occasions in the foreign exchange market by purchasing the Hong Kong dollar and selling the U.S. dollar to
support the value of the Hong Kong dollar.

There are no restrictions, either pursuant to our Articles, or pursuant to the
laws of Hong Kong, on the rights of non-residents of Hong Kong or foreign persons to hold or exercise voting rights with respect to our ordinary shares, or export or import capital.

|-- | --------

The following
provides a general outline of the material tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to own or dispose of our American depositary shares or shares but does not purport to deal with the tax consequences applicable to all categories of
investors. Prospective investors should consult their own professional advisers on the Hong Kong, United States and overall tax implications of investing, holding or disposing the American depositary shares or shares under the laws of the countries
in which they are liable to taxation. The discussion below is applicable to both U.S. and non-U.S. citizens as an investor.

Hong Kong
Taxation

Tax on dividends

No tax is payable in Hong Kong by withholding or otherwise in respect of dividends paid by City Telecom.

Profits tax

No tax is imposed in Hong Kong in respect of gains from the
sale of our shares and American depositary shares, unless all the following factors are present:



| | (i) | such profits are derived from or arise in Hong Kong;
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | such profits are attributable to a trade, profession or business carried on in Hong Kong; and
| | ---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | the property in question, such as shares and American depositary shares, are not capital assets of that trade, profession or business.
| | ----- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Taxable profits are subject to Hong Kong profits tax on corporations at the rate of 16.5% and on unincorporated businesses or individuals
at the rate of 15%.

Profits from the sales of our shares, which are effected on the HKSE, will be considered to be derived
from or arising in Hong Kong. Such profits are taxable if the shares are not held as capital assets and the profits are attributable to a business, trade or profession carried out in Hong Kong.

Profits from the sales of our American depositary shares will be considered to be derived from or arising in Hong Kong if the relevant
purchase or sales contracts are effected in Hong Kong. In the event that those persons dealing or trading in the American depositary shares are doing so as part of their trade, profession or business that is being carried out in Hong Kong and the
shares are not capital assets of such trade of business, then such profits will be subject to Hong Kong profits tax. In any case of an exchange of any American depositary receipts evidencing American depositary shares for certificates representing
shares, any profit gained on subsequent disposition of such shares will be the difference between the initial price of American depositary shares and the market value of such shares at the date of disposition.

Stamp duty

The sale and purchase of shares is subject to Hong Kong stamp duty which is payable by both the seller and the purchaser. Both seller and purchaser must pay stamp duty at a rate of 0.1% each, totaling
0.2%, of the total value of the greater of (i) the consideration paid or (ii) the market value of the shares on the HKSE, or otherwise, on the date the contract note for the sale or purchase is executed. Where one of the parties to a
transfer of the shares is not resident in Hong Kong and the stamp duty on either or both of the contract notes is not paid, the duty not paid will be assessed on the instrument of transfer (if any) and will be payable by the transferee. If the
instrument is not stamped before or within the time for stamping such instrument, a penalty of up to 10 times the duty payable may be imposed. In addition, a fixed duty of HK$5.00 is currently payable on any instrument of transfer of shares.

In addition to the depositarys charges, if any, the withdrawal of the shares upon the surrender of American depositary
receipts evidencing American depositary shares, and the issuance of American depositary receipts evidencing American depositary shares upon the deposit of the shares, will be subject to Hong Kong stamp duty at the rate described above for sale and
purchase transactions. In the event the withdrawal or deposit does not result in a change in the beneficial ownership of the shares under Hong Kong law, only the nominal fixed duty of HK$5.00 will be payable. Investors are not liable for stamp duty
on the issuance of the American depositary shares upon the initial deposit of shares issued directly to the depositary or for the account of the depositary. No Hong Kong stamp duty is payable upon the transfer of American depositary receipts
evidencing our American depositary shares if such American depositary receipts are not maintained on a register in Hong Kong.

Tax treaty

There is currently no reciprocal tax treaty between Hong Kong and the U.S. regarding withholding.

United States Federal Income Taxation

The following discussion describes certain U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders (as defined below) under present law of an
investment in our American depository shares or ordinary shares. This discussion applies only to U.S. Holders that hold the American depository shares or ordinary shares as capital assets (generally, property held for investment) and that have the
U.S. dollar as their functional currency. This discussion is based on the tax laws of the United States as of the date of this annual report and on U.S. Treasury regulations in effect or, in some cases, proposed as of the date of this annual report,
as well as judicial and administrative interpretations thereof available on or before such date. All of the foregoing authorities are subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax consequences described below.

The following discussion neither deals with the tax consequences to any particular investor nor describes all of the tax
consequences applicable to persons in special tax situations such as:



| |  |  | banks;
| | - |  | ------



| |  |  | certain financial institutions;
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | insurance companies;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | regulated investment companies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | real estate investment trusts;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | broker-dealers;
| | - |  | ---------------



| |  |  | traders that elect to mark to market;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | U.S. expatriates;
| | - |  | -----------------



| |  |  | tax-exempt entities;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | persons liable for alternative minimum tax;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | persons holding an American depository share or ordinary share as part of a straddle, hedging, conversion or integrated transaction;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | persons that actually or constructively own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our voting stock;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | persons who acquired American depository shares or ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of any employee share option or otherwise as compensation;
or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | partnerships or pass-through entities, or persons holding American depository shares or ordinary shares through such entities.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INVESTORS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS ABOUT THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL TAX RULES TO
THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES AS WELL AS THE STATE, LOCAL, NON-U.S. AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF AMERICAN DEPOSITORY SHARES OR ORDINARY SHARES.

The discussion below of the U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders will apply to you if you are the beneficial
owner of our American depository shares or ordinary shares and you are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:



| |  |  | an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in the United States or under the
laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a trust that (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and the control of one or more U.S. persons for all
substantial decisions or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are a partner in a partnership or other entity taxable as a partnership that holds
American depository shares or ordinary shares, your tax treatment will depend on your status and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner in such a partnership, you should consult your tax advisor.

The discussion below assumes the representations contained in the deposit agreement are true and the obligations in the deposit agreement
and any related agreement have been and will be complied with in accordance with their terms. If you own American depository shares, you should be treated as the owner of the underlying ordinary shares represented by those American depository shares
for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The U.S. Treasury has expressed concerns that intermediaries in the chain of ownership
between the holder of an American depository share and the issuer of the security underlying the American depository share may be taking actions that are inconsistent with the beneficial ownership of the underlying security (for example,
pre-releasing American depository shares to persons that do not have the beneficial ownership of the securities underlying the American depository shares). Accordingly, the creditability of any foreign taxes and the availability of the reduced tax
rate for any dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individual U.S. Holders (as discussed below), could be affected by actions taken by intermediaries in the chain of ownership between the holders of American depository
shares and our company if as a result of such actions the holders of American depository shares are not properly treated as beneficial owners of underlying ordinary shares.

Dividends and Other Distributions on the American Depository Shares or Ordinary Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, the gross amount of any distributions we make to you with respect to our American depository shares or ordinary shares generally will be includible in your gross
income as dividend income on the date of receipt by the depositary, in the case of American depository shares, or by you, in the case of ordinary shares, but only to the extent the distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and
profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Any such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations. To the extent the
amount of the distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), such excess amount will be treated first as a tax-free return of your tax basis in your American depository
shares or ordinary shares, and then, to the extent such excess amount exceeds your tax basis in your American depository shares or ordinary shares, as capital gain. We currently do not, and we do not intend to, calculate our earnings and profits
under U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, a U.S. Holder should expect that a distribution will generally be reported as a dividend even if that distribution would otherwise be treated as a non-taxable return of capital or as capital gain
under the rules described above.

With respect to certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individual U.S. Holders, for
taxable years beginning before January 1, 2013, any dividends may be taxed at the lower capital gains rate applicable to qualified dividend income, provided (1) the American depository shares or ordinary shares are readily
tradable on an established securities market in the United States, (2) we are neither a PFIC nor treated as such with respect to you (as discussed below) for the taxable year in which the dividend was paid and the preceding taxable year, and
(3) certain holding period requirements are met. Under U.S. Internal Revenue Service authority, American depository shares are considered for purposes of clause (1) above to be readily tradable on an established securities market in the
United States if they are listed on Nasdaq, as are our American depository shares. However, based on existing guidance, it is not entirely clear whether dividends you receive with respect to the ordinary shares will be taxed as qualified dividend
income, because the ordinary shares are not themselves listed on a U.S. exchange. You should consult your tax advisors regarding the availability of the lower capital gains rate applicable to qualified dividend income for any dividends paid with
respect to the American depository shares or ordinary shares.

Any dividends will constitute foreign source income for foreign
tax credit limitation purposes. If the dividends are taxed as qualified dividend income (as discussed above), the amount of the dividend taken into account for purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit limitation will in general be limited to
the gross amount of the dividend, multiplied by the reduced tax rate applicable to qualified dividend income and divided by the highest tax rate normally applicable to dividends. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated
separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends distributed by us with respect to our American depository shares or ordinary shares will generally constitute passive category income but could, in the
case of certain U.S. Holders, constitute general category income.

Disposition of American Depository Shares or Ordinary Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, you will recognize taxable gain or loss on any sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of
an American depository share or ordinary share equal to the difference between the amount realized for the American depository share or ordinary share and your tax basis in the American depository share or ordinary share. The gain or loss generally
will be capital gain or loss. If you are a non-corporate U.S. Holder, including an individual U.S. Holder, that has held the American depository share or ordinary share for more than one year, you may be eligible for reduced tax rates. The
deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss you recognize on a disposition of American depository shares or ordinary shares will generally be treated as U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit limitation
purposes.

Passive Foreign Investment Company

Based on the market price of our American depository shares, the value of our assets, and the composition of our income and assets, though
not without doubt, we do not believe we were a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our taxable year ended August 31, 2012. However, the application of the PFIC rules is subject to uncertainty in several respects, and we cannot assure
you that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service will not take a contrary position. A non-U.S. corporation will be a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year if either:



| |  |  | at least 75% of its gross income for such year is passive income, or
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | at least 50% of the value of its assets (based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets) during such year is attributable to assets that
produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For this purpose, we will be
treated as owning our proportionate share of the assets and earning our proportionate share of the income of any other corporation in which we own, directly or indirectly, at least 25% (by value) of the stock.

A separate determination must be made after the close of each taxable year as to whether we were a PFIC for that year. Because the value
of our assets for purposes of the PFIC test will generally be determined by reference to the market price of our American depository shares and ordinary shares, fluctuations in the market price of our American depository shares and ordinary shares
may cause us to become a PFIC. In addition, changes in the composition of our income or assets may cause us to become a PFIC. Furthermore, unless our share value increases and/or we invest a substantial amount of our cash, we may be a PFIC for our
current taxable year ending August 31, 2013. If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold American depository shares or ordinary shares, we generally will continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to you for all succeeding
years during which you hold American depository shares or ordinary shares, unless we cease to be a PFIC and you make a deemed sale election with respect to the American depository shares or ordinary shares. If such election is made, you
will be deemed to have sold American depository shares or ordinary shares you hold at their fair market value on the last day of the last taxable year in which we qualified as a PFIC, and any gain from such deemed sale would be subject to the
consequences described in the following two paragraphs. After the deemed sale election, your American depository shares or ordinary shares with respect to which the deemed sale election was made will not be treated as shares in a PFIC unless we
subsequently become a PFIC.

For each taxable year that we are treated as a PFIC with respect to you, you will be subject to
special tax rules with respect to any excess distribution you receive and any gain you recognize from a sale or other disposition (including a pledge) of the American depository shares or ordinary shares, unless you make a
mark-to-market election as discussed below. Distributions you receive in a taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions you received during the shorter of the three preceding taxable years or your holding
period for the American depository shares or ordinary shares will be treated as an excess distribution. Under these special tax rules:



| |  |  | the excess distribution or recognized gain will be allocated ratably over your holding period for the American depository shares or ordinary shares,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the amount allocated to the current taxable year, and any taxable years in your holding period prior to the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC,
will be treated as ordinary income, and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the amount allocated to each other taxable year will be subject to the highest tax rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as applicable, for
each such year, and the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the resulting tax attributable to each such year.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The tax liability for amounts allocated to taxable years prior to the year of disposition or excess distribution cannot be offset by any net operating losses for such years, and gains (but not losses)
realized on the sale or other disposition of our American depository shares or ordinary shares cannot be treated as capital, even if you hold the American depository shares or ordinary shares as capital assets.

If we are treated as a PFIC with respect to you for any taxable year, to the extent any of our subsidiaries are also PFICs or we make
direct or indirect equity investments in other entities that are PFICs, you may be deemed to own shares in such lower-tier PFICs that are directly or indirectly owned by us in that proportion which the value of the American depository shares or
ordinary shares you own bears to the value of all of our American depository shares and ordinary shares, and you may be subject to the adverse tax consequences described in the preceding two paragraphs with respect to the shares of such lower-tier
PFICs that you would be deemed to own. You should consult your tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to any of our subsidiaries.

##### Table of Contents

A U.S. Holder of marketable stock (as defined below) in a PFIC may make a
mark-to-market election for such stock to elect out of the PFIC rules described above regarding excess distributions and recognized gains. If you make a mark-to-market election for our American depository shares or ordinary shares, you will include
in income for each year we are a PFIC an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the American depository shares or ordinary shares as of the close of your taxable year over your adjusted basis in such American depository
shares or ordinary shares. You will be allowed a deduction for the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of the American depository shares or ordinary shares over their fair market value as of the close of the taxable year. However, deductions will
be allowable only to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains on the American depository shares or ordinary shares included in your income for prior taxable years. Amounts included in your income under a mark-to-market election, as well as gain on
the actual sale or other disposition of the American depository shares or ordinary shares, will be treated as ordinary income. Ordinary loss treatment will also apply to the deductible portion of any mark-to-market loss on the American depository
shares or ordinary shares, as well as to any loss realized on the actual sale or other disposition of the American depository shares or ordinary shares, to the extent the amount of such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously
included for such American depository shares or ordinary shares. Your basis in the American depository shares or ordinary shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts. If you make a mark-to-market election, any distributions we
make would generally be subject to the rules discussed above under Dividends and Other Distributions on the American Depository Shares or Ordinary Shares, except the lower rate applicable to qualified dividend income would not
apply.

The mark-to-market election is available only for marketable stock, which is stock that is regularly
traded on a qualified exchange or other market, as defined in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations. Our American depository shares are listed on the Nasdaq, which is a qualified exchange or other market for these purposes. Consequently, if the
American depository shares continue to be listed on the Nasdaq and are regularly traded, and you are a holder of American depository shares, we expect the mark-to-market election would be available to you if we were to become a PFIC. Because a
mark-to-market election cannot be made for equity interests in any lower-tier PFICs that we own, a U.S. Holder may continue to be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to its indirect interest in any investments held by us that are treated as an
equity interest in a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. You should consult your tax advisors as to the availability and desirability of a mark-to-market election, as well as the impact of such election on interests in any lower-tier PFICs.

Alternatively, if a non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC, a holder of shares in that corporation may avoid taxation under the PFIC
rules described above regarding excess distributions and recognized gains by making a qualified electing fund election to include in income its share of the corporations income on a current basis. However, you may make a qualified
electing fund election with respect to your American depository shares or ordinary shares only if we agree to furnish you annually with certain tax information, and we currently do not intend to prepare or provide such information.

Unless otherwise provided by the U.S. Treasury, each U.S. Holder of a PFIC is required to file an annual report containing such
information as the U.S. Treasury may require. If we are or become a PFIC, you should consult your tax advisor regarding any reporting requirements that may apply to you.

You are strongly urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the application of the PFIC rules to your investment in American depository shares or ordinary shares.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Any dividend payments with respect to American depository shares or ordinary shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of American depository shares or ordinary shares may be subject to
information reporting to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and possible U.S. backup withholding. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder that furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and makes any other required
certification or that is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. U.S. Holders that are required to establish their exempt status generally must provide such certification on U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. U.S. Holders should consult their
tax advisor regarding the application of the U.S. information reporting and backup withholding rules.

Backup withholding is
not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, and you may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by filing the appropriate
claim for refund with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and furnishing any required information in a timely manner.

Additional Reporting Requirements

Certain U.S. Holders who are individuals are required to report information relating to an interest in our American depository shares or ordinary shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an
exception for American depository shares or ordinary shares held in accounts maintained by certain financial institutions). U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of these rules on their ownership and
disposition of the American depository shares and ordinary shares.

Payment of Taxes

The ADR holder is required to pay all taxes and other governmental charges that may be payable in respect of any their ADSs, or the shares or other securities underlying their ADSs. The depositary may
refuse to effect a transfer of any ADRs or refuse to effect the withdrawal of any securities underlying the ADRs while any such taxes and charges are outstanding. The depositary may deduct the amount of any taxes owed from any payments to our ADR
holders. It may also sell deposited securities, by public or private sale, to pay any taxes owed. Our ADR holders will remain liable if the proceeds of the sale are not enough to pay the taxes. If the depositary sells deposited securities, it will,
if appropriate, reduce the number of ADSs to reflect the sale and pay to our ADR holders any proceeds, or send to our ADR holders any property, remaining after it has paid the taxes.

Fees and Payments from the Depositary to Us

In fiscal year 2012, the Company did not
receive any payment from the depositary.

ITEM 15 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



|A. | Disclosure controls and procedures
|-- | ----------------------------------

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this annual report, based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to
provide reasonable assurance that information the Company was required to disclose in reports that the Company filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of
achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of
possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Subsequent to the date of their evaluation, there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls.



|B. | Managements report on internal control over financial reporting
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended. The Companys internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purpose in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Under Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our management is required to include its assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control procedures over financial
reporting in our annual report on Form 20-F beginning in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009. With the assistance of Companys internal audit department and external consultants, our management organized and conducted a comprehensive
assessment of internal control over financial reporting based on the control criteria in COSO framework. Based on this assessment, the Directors believe that, as of August 31, 2012, the internal control over financial reporting was effective.



|C. | Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of City Telecom (H.K.) Limited:

We have
audited City Telecom (H.K.) Limiteds internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (COSO). The management of City Telecom (H.K.) Limited is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial
reporting, included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the City Telecom (H.K.) Limiteds internal control over financial reporting based on
our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an
understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that,
in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

##### Table of Contents

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not
prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies
or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, City Telecom (H.K.) Limited maintained, in all material respects, effective
internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated
balance sheets of City Telecom (H.K.) Limited and its subsidiaries as of August 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated income statements, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity,
and consolidated cash flow statements for each of the years in the three-year period ended August 31, 2012, and our report dated December 31, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

|D. | Changes in internal control over financial reporting

result of the change in our business operations, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this annual report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

ITEM 16G Corporate Governance

As our ordinary shares are listed on the HKSE and American depositary shares representing our ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq
Global Market, we are subject to applicable Hong Kong laws and regulations, including the HKSE Listing Rules, and the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, as well as applicable U.S. federal securities laws, including the Exchange Act and the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In addition, we are subject to the corporate governance requirements imposed by Nasdaq to the extent they apply to foreign private issuers. Under Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5615(a)(3), a foreign private issuer such as us may follow
its home country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain of the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules corporate governance requirements. Our current corporate governance practices differ from Nasdaq corporate governance requirements for U.S. companies
in certain respects, as summarized below:



| |  |  | Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5605(b)(1) requires a Nasdaq listed company to have a board of directors consisting of a majority of independent members, In
this regard we have elected to adopt the practices of our home country, As a listed company in Hong Kong, we are subject to the requirement under the HKSE Listing Rules that at least three members of our board of directors be independent as
determined under the HKSE Listing Rules. In compliance with our home country practices, we currently have three independent directors out of a total of eight directors. The standards for establishing independence under the HKSE Listing Rules also
differ from those set forth in the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5605(b)(2) requires a Nasdaq listed company to schedule regular executive sessions in which non-management directors meet
without management participation. In this regard we have elected to adopt the practices of our home country. Under the applicable Hong Kong law, our board of directors is required to meet regularly and at least four times a year and we are required
to ensure that there is active participation by a majority of the directors and afford all directors an opportunity to include matters on the agenda. In addition, when a board meeting considers a matter in which a substantial shareholder or a
director has a conflict of interest, the independent directors with no material interest in such matter must be present. In compliance with our home country practices, we do not organize exclusive meetings for our independent non-executive directors
on a regular basis.

| |  |  | Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5605(d)(1) requires a Nasdaq listed company to have the compensation of the chief executive officer and the other executive
officers be determined, or recommended to the its board of directors for determination, by a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors. In this regard we have elected to adopt the practices of our home country. Under the HKSE
Listing Rules, listed companies are required to establish a remuneration committee with a majority of independent non-executive directors. The compensation of our executive officers is determined by a remuneration committee consisting of six
directors, three of whom are independent non-executive directors.

| |  |  | Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5605(e)(1) requires a Nasdaq listed company to have a nominations committee consisting solely of independent directors to
select or recommend for selection director nominees. In this regard we have elected to adopt the practices of our home country and do not have a nominations committee consisting solely of independent directors. Under the HKSE Listing Rules, listed
companies are recommended but not required to establish a nomination committee consisting of the independent non-executive directors with majority vote. Our director nominees are selected by or recommended for selection by our board of directors.
Our current practice is not inconsistent with our home country practices.

our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of City Telecom (H.K.) Limited and its subsidiaries as of August 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended August 31, 2012, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), City Telecom (H.K.) Limiteds internal control over financial reporting as of

|1 | Significant accounting policies
|- | -------------------------------



|(a) | Statement of compliance
|--- | -----------------------

City Telecom (H.K.) Limited (the Company) was incorporated in Hong Kong on May 19, 1992 under the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. City Telecom (H.K.) Limited and its subsidiaries
(collectively referred to as the Group) are engaged in the provision of production and distribution and other multimedia related activities.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB), which collective term includes all applicable individual International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards (IASs) and Interpretations issued by the IASB.

The IASB has issued certain new and revised IFRSs that are first effective or available for early adoption for the current
accounting period of the Group.

Note 1(c) provides information on any changes in accounting policies resulting from initial
application of those developments to the extent that they are relevant to the Group for the current and prior accounting periods reflected in these financial statements.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on December 31, 2012.



|(b) | Basis of preparation of the financial statements
|--- | ------------------------------------------------

The measurement basis used in the preparation of the financial statements is the historical cost basis except that investment properties and certain financial assets are stated at their fair values or
amortized costs as explained in the accounting policies set out below (see notes 1(g), 1(l), 1(o), 1(t) and 1(u)).

The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and
associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about the carrying values of assets and
liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates
and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future
periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Judgments made by management in the application of IFRSs that
have significant effect on the financial statements and major sources of estimation uncertainty are discussed in note 30.



|(c) | Change in accounting policies
|--- | -----------------------------

The IASB has issued a number of amendments to IFRSs and one new interpretation that are first effective for the current accounting period of the Group. Of these, the following developments are relevant to
the Groups financial statements:



| |  |  | IAS 24 (revised 2009), Related party disclosures
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Improvements to IFRSs (2010)
| | - |  | ----------------------------

The above developments relate primarily to clarification of certain disclosure requirements applicable to the Groups financial statements. These developments have no material impact on the contents
of the Groups financial statements for the current or comparative periods.

The Group has early adopted the amendments to
IAS 12, Income taxes, in respect of the recognition of deferred tax on investment properties carried at fair value under IAS 40, Investment properties. The amendments are effective for annual period beginning on or after
January 1, 2012, but as permitted by the amendments, the Group have adopted the amendments for the year ended August 31, 2012.

Other than the early adoption of amendments to IAS 12, the Group has not applied any new standard, amendment or interpretation that is not yet effective for the current accounting period.

##### Table of Contents

Amendments to IAS 12, Income taxes

Under IAS 12 deferred tax is required to be measured with reference to the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the
entity expects to recover the carrying amount of the asset(s) in question. In this regard, the amendments to IAS 12 introduced a rebuttable presumption that the carrying amount of investment property carried at fair value under IAS 40, Investment
property, will be recovered through sale. This presumption is rebutted on a property-by-property basis if the in question is depreciable and is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits
embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale.

As a result of adopting the amendments to IAS 12, the
Group reviewed its investment property portfolio and concluded that the presumption in the amended IAS 12 that the carrying value of the property will be recovered through sale should be adopted in respect of each of the investment properties
located in Hong Kong. Therefore, the deferred tax relating to these properties has been measured on the basis of recovering their carrying amounts entirely through sale. This change in policy has no impact on the financial statements for the year
ended August 31, 2011.

Change of accounting policy - Investment properties

Effective from September 1, 2011, the Group has changed its accounting policy with respect to investment properties from the cost
model to the fair value model. Any gain or loss arising from a change in fair value or from the retirement or disposal of an investment property is recognized in profit or loss. The Group considers that measurement using the fair value model
provides more relevant information about the financial performance of these investment properties given of their increased significance in the Groups balance sheet.

The financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2011 have not been retrospectively restated due to the immaterial effect resulting from the change in accounting policy.



|(d) | Subsidiaries and controlled entities
|--- | ------------------------------------

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In
assessing control, potential voting rights that presently are exercisable are taken into account.



|(e) | Group accounting
|--- | ----------------



|(i) | Consolidation
|--- | -------------

An investment in
a subsidiary is consolidated into the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

Intra-group balances and transactions and any unrealized profits arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealized losses
resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

Non-controlling interests represent the equity in a subsidiary not attributable directly or indirectly to the Company, and in respect of which the Group has not agreed any additional terms with the
holders of those interests which would result in the Group as a whole having a contractual obligation in respect of those interests that meets the definition of a financial liability.

Non-controlling interests are presented in the consolidated balance sheets within equity, separately from equity attributable to the
equity shareholders of the Company. Non-controlling interests in the results of the Group are presented on the face of the consolidated income statement and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as an allocation of the total profit or
loss and total comprehensive income for the year between non-controlling interests and the equity shareholders of the Company.

Changes in the Groups interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions,
whereby adjustments are made to the amounts of controlling and non-controlling interests within consolidated equity to reflect the change in relative interests and no gain or loss is recognized.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, it is accounted for as a disposal of the entire interest in that subsidiary, with a
resulting gain or loss being recognized in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is recognized at fair value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a
financial asset or, when appropriate, the cost on initial recognized of an investment in an associate or jointly controlled entity.

In the Companys balance sheet, an investment in a subsidiary is stated at cost less impairment losses (see note 1(k)), unless the investment is classified as held for sale or included in a disposal
group that is classified as held for sale.

|(ii) | Translation of foreign currencies
|---- | ---------------------------------

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates ruling at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates ruling at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising in these cases are dealt with in profit or loss.

For consolidation purposes, the balance sheets of subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange
ruling at the balance sheet date whilst the income statement is translated at an average rate for the year. Exchange differences are dealt with as a movement in reserves.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong Dollars, which is the Groups functional currency. All financial information have been rounded to the nearest thousand.



|(f) | Goodwill
|--- | --------

Goodwill
represents the excess of



| | (i) | the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration transferred; over
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | the net fair value of the acquirees identifiable assets and liabilities measured as at the acquisition date.
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When (ii) is greater than (i), then this excess is recognized immediately in profit or loss as a gain on a bargain purchase.

Goodwill is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill arising on a business combination is allocated to each
cash-generating unit, or groups of cash-generating units, that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination and is tested annually for impairment (see note 1(k)).

On disposal of a cash-generating unit during the year, any attributable amount of purchased goodwill is included in the calculation of the
profit or loss on disposal.



|(g) | Investment property
|--- | -------------------

Investment properties are land and/or buildings which are owned and held to earn rental income and/or for capital appreciation.

Investment properties are stated at fair value, unless they are still in the course of construction or development at the
balance sheet date and their fair value cannot be reliably determined at that time. Any gain or loss arising from a change in fair value or from the retirement or disposal of an investment property is recognized in profit or loss. Rental income from
investment properties is accounted for as described in note 1(v)(vi).



|(h) | Fixed assets
|--- | ------------



| | (i) | Construction in progress
| | --- | ------------------------

Construction in progress was carried at cost, which includes development and construction expenditure incurred and interest and direct
costs attributable to the development less any accumulated impairment loss (note 1(k)) as considered necessary by the directors. No depreciation is provided for construction in progress. On completion, the associated costs are transferred to
leasehold land and buildings.



| | (ii) | Other fixed assets
| | ---- | ------------------

Other fixed
assets, comprising buildings, leasehold improvements, broadcasting and production equipment network, computer and office equipment, furniture, fixtures and fittings and motor vehicles, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses (note 1(k)).

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of fixed assets, less their
estimated residual value, if any, using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:



| |  |  | Buildings situated on leasehold land are depreciated over the shorter of the unexpired term of lease and their estimated useful lives of 50 years
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



     Furniture, fixtures and fittings


4 years     Broadcasting and production equipment


2 - 10 years     Telecommunications/network, computer and office equipment


4 - 20 years     Motor vehicles


4 years




| |  |  | Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the unexpired term of the leases and their estimated useful lives
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Leasehold land classified as held under finance leases is depreciated over the unexpired term of leases
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

Where the parts of an item of fixed assets have different useful lives, the cost of the item
is allocated on a reasonable basis between the parts and each part is depreciated separately. Both the useful life of an asset and its residual value, if any, are reviewed annually.

Major costs incurred in restoring fixed assets to their normal working condition are charged to profit or loss. Major improvements are
capitalized and depreciated over their expected useful lives to the Group.

The gain or loss on disposal of a fixed asset is
the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant asset, and is recognized in profit or loss on the date of disposal.



|(i) | Intangible assets
|--- | -----------------

Intangible assets that are acquired by the Group are stated at cost less accumulated amortization (where the estimated useful life is
finite) and impairment losses (see note 1(k)).

Amortization of intangible assets with finite useful lives is charged to profit
or loss on a straight-line basis over the assets estimated useful lives. The following intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized from the date they are available for use and their estimated useful lives are as follows:



-

Indefeasible right of use (IRU) of telecommunications capacity


20 years-

Right to use of telecommunications services


10 years


Both the period and method of amortization are reviewed annually.



|(j) | Assets held under leases
|--- | ------------------------

An arrangement, comprising a transaction or a series of transactions, is or contains a lease if the Group determines that the arrangement conveys a right to use a specific asset or assets for an agreed
period of time in return for a payment or a series of payments. Such a determination is made based on an evaluation of the substance of the arrangement and is regardless of whether the arrangement takes the legal form of a lease.



|(i) | Classification of assets leased to the Group
|--- | --------------------------------------------

Assets that are held by Group under leases which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as being held under finance leases. Leases which do not transfer
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the Group are classified as operating leases.

Land held for own use
under an operating lease for which its fair value cannot be measured separately from the fair value of a building situated thereon at the inception of the lease, is accounted for as being held under a finance lease, unless the building is also
clearly held under an operating lease (see note 1(j)(iii)).



|(ii) | Finance leases
|---- | --------------

Where the Group
acquires the use of assets under finance leases, the amounts representing the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments of such assets, are included in fixed assets with the corresponding
liabilities, net of finance charges, recorded as obligations under finance leases. Depreciation and impairment losses are accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy as set out in note 1(h) and note 1(k). Finance charges implicit in the
lease payments are charged to profit or loss over the period of the leases so as to produce an approximately constant periodic rate of charge on the remaining balance of the obligations for each accounting period.



|(iii) | Operating leases
|----- | ----------------

Leases where
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of assets remain with the lessor are accounted for as operating leases. Receipts and payments made under operating leases net of any incentives received by/from the lessor are credited/charged to
profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease periods.

|(k) | Impairment of assets
|--- | --------------------



|(i) | Impairment of investments in debt and equity securities and accounts and other receivables
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Investments in debt and equity securities and other current and non-current receivables that are stated at cost or amortized cost or are
classified as available-for-sale securities are reviewed at the end of each balance sheet date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment. Objective evidence of impairment includes observable data that comes to the attention of
the Group about one or more of the following loss events:



| |  |  | significant financial difficulty of the debtor;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | it becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | significant changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment that have an adverse effect on the debtor; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If any such evidence exists, any impairment loss is determined and recognized as follows:



| |  |  | For investments in subsidiaries, the impairment loss is measured by comparing the recoverable amount of the investment with its carrying amount in
accordance with note 1(k)(ii). The impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount in accordance with note 1(k)(ii).
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | For trade and other current receivables and other financial assets carried at amortized cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between
the assets carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial assets original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition of these assets where
the effect of discounting is material). This assessment is made collectively where financial assets carried at amortized cost share similar risk characteristics, such as similar past due status, and have not been individually assessed as impaired.
Future cash flows for financial assets which are assessed for impairment collectively are based on historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics similar to the collective group.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If in a subsequent period the amount of an impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be linked objectively to an event occurring
after the impairment loss was recognized, the impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss. A reversal of an impairment loss shall not result in the assets carrying amount exceeding that would have been determined had no impairment loss
been recognized in prior years.



| |  |  | For available-for-sale securities, the cumulative loss that has been recognized in the fair value reserve is classified to profit or loss. The amount
of the cumulative loss that is recognized in profit or loss is the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortization) and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that asset previously recognized in
profit or loss.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Impairment losses recognized in profit or loss in respect of available-for-sale equity
securities are not reversed through profit or loss. Any subsequent increase in the fair value of such assets is recognized directly in other comprehensive income.

Impairment losses in respect of available-for-sale debt securities are reversed if the subsequent increase in fair value can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was
recognized. Reversals of impairment losses in such circumstances are recognized in profit and loss.

Impairment losses are
written off against the corresponding assets directly, except for impairment losses recognized in respect of accounts receivable, whose recovery is considered doubtful but not remote. In this case, the impairment losses for doubtful debts are
recorded using an allowance account. When the Group is satisfied that recovery is remote, the amount considered irrecoverable is written off against trade debtors and any amounts held in the allowance account relating to that debt are reversed.
Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously charged to the allowance account are reversed against the allowance account. Other changes in the allowance account and subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off directly are recognized in
profit or loss.

##### Table of Contents

|(ii) | Impairment of other assets
|---- | --------------------------

Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at the end of each balance sheet date to identify indications that the following
assets may be impaired or, except in the case of goodwill, an impairment loss previously recognized no longer exists or may have decreased:



| |  |  | fixed assets;
| | - |  | -------------



| |  |  | intangible assets; and
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | goodwill.
| | - |  | ---------

If any such indication exists, the assets recoverable amount is estimated. In addition, for goodwill, the recoverable amount is
estimated annually whether or not there is any indication of impairment.



| |  |  | Calculation of recoverable amount
| | - |  | ---------------------------------

The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value
using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount
is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e. a cash-generating unit).



| |  |  | Recognition of impairment losses
| | - |  | --------------------------------

An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss whenever the carrying amount of an asset, or the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses recognized
in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit (or group of units) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (or group of
units) on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less costs to sell, or value in use, if determinable.



| |  |  | Reversals of impairment losses
| | - |  | ------------------------------

In respect of assets other than goodwill, an impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favorable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss in respect of
goodwill is not reversed.

A reversal of an impairment loss is limited to the assets carrying amount that would have been
determined had no impairment loss been recognized in prior years. Reversals of impairment losses are credited to profit or loss in the year in which the reversals are recognized.



|(iii) | Interim financial reporting and impairment
|----- | ------------------------------------------

Under the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited, the Group is required to prepare an interim financial report in compliance with IAS 34, Interim financial
reporting, in respect of the first six months of the financial year. At the end of the interim period, the Group applies the same impairment testing, recognition and reversal criteria as it would at the end of the financial year (see
note 1(k)(i) and 1(k)(ii)).

Impairment losses recognized in an interim period in respect of goodwill, available-for-sale
equity securities and unquoted equity securities carried at costs are not reversed in a subsequent period. This is the case even if no loss, or a smaller loss, would have been recognized had the impairment been assessed only at the end of the
financial year to which the interim period relates. Consequently, if the fair value of an available-for-sale equity security increases in the remainder of the annual period, or in any other period subsequently, the increase is recognized in other
comprehensive income and not profit or losses.



|(l) | Derivative financial instruments
|--- | --------------------------------

Derivative financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured. The gain or loss on remeasurement to fair value is recognized immediately
in profit or loss, except where the derivatives qualify for cash flow hedge accounting or hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, in which case recognition of any resultant gain or loss depends on the nature of the item being hedged. For
the years presented in the consolidated financial statements, none of the Groups derivative financial instruments qualify as hedges or hedge accounting.

##### Table of Contents

|(m) | Programme costs
|--- | ---------------

Programme costs are stated at cost less amounts expensed and any provision considered necessary by management. Programme costs are charged
to the profit or loss over the showing or licensing period of the programme, with reference to the projected revenue.



| |  |  | Self-produced Programmes
| | - |  | ------------------------

Self-produced programmes consist primarily of drama, infotainment and variety programmes. Cost of self-produced programmes comprises direct production cost and an appropriate proportion of production
overheads.



| |  |  | Purchased Programmes
| | - |  | --------------------

Purchased programmes consist film rights acquired for showing on the Groups television channel. Cost of purchased programme comprises cost of purchase, cost of conversion and an appropriate
proportion of production overheads.



|(n) | Deferred expenditure
|--- | --------------------

Deferred expenditure represents customer acquisition costs incurred for successful acquisition or origination of a service subscription agreement with a customer. Such costs are deferred and amortized on
a straight-line basis over the period of the underlying service subscription agreements.



|(o) | Accounts receivables
|--- | --------------------

Trade and other receivables are initially recognized at fair value and thereafter stated at amortized cost less allowance for impairment of doubtful debts (see note 1(k)(i)), except where the receivables
are interest-free loans made to related parties without any fixed repayment terms or the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less impairment of doubtful debts (see note 1(k)(i)).



|(p) | Cash and cash equivalents
|--- | -------------------------

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known
amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Groups cash
management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated cash flow statement.



|(q) | Financial guarantees issued, provisions and contingent liabilities
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------



|(i) | Financial guarantees issued
|--- | ---------------------------

Financial guarantees are contracts that require the issuer (i.e. the guarantor) to make specified payments to reimburse the beneficiary of
the guarantee (the holder) for a loss the holder incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.

Where the Group issues a financial guarantee, the fair value of the guarantee (being the transaction price, unless the fair value can otherwise be reliably estimated) is initially recognized as deferred
income within trade and other payables. Where consideration is received or receivable for the issuance of the guarantee, the consideration is recognized in accordance with the Groups policies applicable to that category of asset. Where no such
consideration is received or receivable, an immediate expense is recognized in profit or loss on initial recognition of any deferred income. The amount of the guarantee initially recognized as deferred income is amortized in profit or loss over the
term of the guarantee as income from financial guarantees issued. In addition, provisions are recognized in accordance with note 1(q)(ii) if and when (i) it becomes probable that the holder of the guarantee will call upon the Group under the
guarantee, and (ii) the amount of that claim on the Group is expected to exceed the amount currently carried in trade and other payables in respect of that guarantee i.e. the amount initially recognized, less accumulated amortization.



|(ii) | Other provisions and contingent liabilities
|---- | -------------------------------------------

Provisions are recognized for other liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of
economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation.



F-14



---

##### Table of Contents

Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the
amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or
non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.



|(r) | Talent benefits
|--- | ---------------



|(i) | Leave entitlements
|--- | ------------------

Entitlements
to annual leave and long service leave are recognized when they accrue to individuals employed by the Group hereinafter (referred to as Talents), including directors of the Company. A provision is made for the estimated liability for
annual leave and long-service leave as a result of services rendered by Talents up to the balance sheet date. Entitlements to sick leave and maternity or paternity leave are not recognized until the time of leave.



|(ii) | Profit sharing and bonus plans
|---- | ------------------------------

Provisions for profit sharing and bonus plans are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of
services rendered by Talents and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made.



|(iii) | Retirement benefit costs
|----- | ------------------------

The
Group contributes to defined contribution retirement schemes which are available to certain Talents. Contributions to the schemes by the Group are calculated as a percentage of Talents basic salaries and charged to profit or loss. The
Groups contributions are reduced by contributions forfeited by those Talents who leave the scheme prior to vesting fully in the contributions.

The assets of the scheme are held in an independently administered fund that is separated from the Groups assets.



|(iv) | Share-based payments
|---- | --------------------

The fair
value of share options granted to Talents or Directors is recognized as Talent cost with a corresponding increase in capital reserve within equity. The fair value is measured at grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model or Monte Carlo
model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. Where the Talents have to meet vesting conditions before becoming unconditionally entitled to the share options, the total estimated fair value of the share
options is spread over the vesting period, taking into account the probability that the options will vest.

During the vesting
period, the number of share options that is expected to vest is reviewed. Any adjustment to the cumulative fair value recognized in prior years is charged/credited to profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to the capital reserve. On vesting
date, the amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of share options that vest (with a corresponding adjustment to the capital reserve) except where forfeiture is only due to not achieving vesting conditions that
relate to the market price of the Companys shares. The amount related to share options expense is recorded in the capital reserve until either the option is exercised or the option expires.



|(s) | Income tax
|--- | ----------

Income
tax for the year comprises current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to business
combinations, or items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the relevant amounts of tax are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the
balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise
from deductible and taxable temporary differences respectively, being the differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets also arise from unused tax losses
and unused tax credits.



F-15



---

##### Table of Contents

Apart from certain limited exceptions, all deferred tax liabilities, and all deferred tax
assets to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized, are recognized. Future taxable profits that may support the recognition of deferred tax assets arising from deductible
temporary differences include those that will arise from the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, provided those differences relate to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity, and are expected to reverse either in the
same period as the expected reversal of the deductible temporary difference or in periods into which a tax loss arising from the deferred tax asset can be carried back or forward. The same criteria are adopted when determining whether existing
taxable temporary differences support the recognition of deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and credits, that is, those differences are taken into account if they relate to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity, and
are expected to reverse in a period, or periods, in which the tax loss or credit can be utilized.

The limited exceptions to
recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities are those temporary differences arising from goodwill not deductible for tax purposes, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit (provided
they are not part of a business combination), and temporary differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that, in the case of taxable differences, the Group controls the timing of the reversal and it is probable that the
differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future, or in the case of deductible differences, unless it is probable that they will reverse in the future.

Where investment properties are carried at their fair value in accordance with the accounting policy set out in note 1(g), the amount of deferred tax recognized is measured using the tax rates that would
apply on sale of those assets at their carrying value at the balance sheet date unless the property is depreciable and is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the property
over time, rather than through sale. In all other cases, the amount of deferred tax recognized is measured based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

The carrying amount
of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at each balance sheet date and is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the related tax benefit to be utilized. Any such reduction is
reversed to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

Current tax balances and
deferred tax balances, and movements therein, are presented separately from each other and are not offset. Current tax assets are offset against current tax liabilities, and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities, if the Group has the
legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the following additional conditions are met:



| |  |  | in the case of current tax assets and liabilities, the Group intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability
simultaneously; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | in the case of deferred tax assets and liabilities, if they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either:
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the same taxable entity; or
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | different taxable entities, which, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled
or recovered, intend to realize the current tax assets and settle the current tax liabilities on a net basis or realize and settle simultaneously.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(t) | Interest-bearing borrowings
|--- | ---------------------------

Interest-bearing borrowings are recognized initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortized cost with
the difference between amortized cost and redemption value recognized in profit or loss over the period of borrowings using the effective interest method.



|(u) | Trade and other payables
|--- | ------------------------

Trade and other payables are initially recognized at fair value. Except for financial guarantee liabilities measured in accordance with note 1(q), trade and other payables are subsequently stated at
amortized cost unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

|(v) | Interest income is recognized as it accrues using the effective interest method.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(vi) | Rental income receivable under operating leases is recognized in profit or loss in equal installments over the periods covered by the lease term except where an
alternative basis is more representative of the platform of benefits to be derived from the leased assets. Lease incentives granted are recognized in profit or loss as an integral part of the aggregate net lease payments receivable.
|---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(vii) | Artiste management fee income is recognized when the services are rendered.
|----- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(w) | Borrowing costs
|--- | ---------------

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a
substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.

All
other borrowing costs are charged to profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.



|(x) | Discontinued operations
|--- | -----------------------

A discontinued operation is a component of the Groups business, the operations and cash flows of which can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the Group and which represents a separate major
line of business. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal.

Where an operation is classified as
discontinued, a single amount is presented on the face of the income statement, which comprises:



| |  |  | the post-tax profit or loss of the discontinued operation; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the post-tax gain or loss recognized on the disposal of the assets or disposal group constituting the discontinued operation.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(y) | Segment reporting
|--- | -----------------

Operating segments, and the amounts of each segment item reported in the financial statements, are identified from the financial
information provided regularly to the Groups most senior executive management for the purposes of allocating resources to, and assessing the performance of, the Groups lines of business.

Geographical information is not presented as the majority of the Groups revenue is attributed to customers in Hong Kong and the
majority of the assets are located in Hong Kong.

|9 | Retirement benefit costs
|- | ------------------------

The Group contributes to an Occupational Retirement Scheme (the ORSO Scheme), a defined contribution retirement scheme, which
is available to some of its Talents in Hong Kong. Under the ORSO Scheme, the Talents are required to contribute 5% of their monthly salaries, while the Groups contributions are calculated at 10% and 5% of the monthly salaries of senior
management Talents and all other Talents respectively. The Talents are entitled to 100% of the employers contributions after 10 years of completed service, or at a reduced scale after completion of 3 to 9 years service.
Contributions to the ORSO Scheme are reduced by contributions forfeited by those Talents who leave the ORSO Scheme prior to vesting fully in the Groups contributions.

A mandatory provident fund scheme (the MPF Scheme) has been established under the Hong Kong Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme Ordinance in December 2000. The then existing Talents of the
Group in Hong Kong could elect to join the MPF Scheme, while all new Talents joining the Group in Hong Kong from then onwards are required to join the MPF Scheme. Both the Group and the Talents are required to contribute 5% of each individuals
relevant income with a maximum amount of HK$1,000 per month before June 1, 2012, and commenced from June 1, 2012, the maximum amount has been increased to HK$1,250, as a mandatory contribution. Employers mandatory contributions are 100%
vested in the Talents as soon as they are paid to the MPF Scheme. Senior Talents may also elect to join a Mutual Voluntary Plan (the Mutual Plan) in which both the Group and the Talent, on top of the MPF Scheme mandatory contributions,
make a voluntary contribution to the extent of contributions that would have been made under the ORSO Scheme.

Pursuant to the
relevant regulations in the PRC, the Group contributes to a defined contribution retirement scheme organized by the local social security bureau for each Talent of the subsidiary in the PRC at the rate of 20% of a standard salary base as determined
by the local social security bureau. The Group has no other obligation to make payments in respect of retirement benefits of these Talents.

The retirement schemes for Talents of the Group in other countries follow the local statutory requirements of the respective countries.

The aggregate employers contributions, net of forfeited contributions, which have been dealt with in the consolidated income
statement during the year are as follows:

At August 31, 2012, there was no forfeited contribution available to offset future contributions by
the Group to the ORSO Scheme (2011 and 2010: HK$Nil).

|11 | Equity settled share-based transactions
|-- | ---------------------------------------

The Company operates a share option scheme (the 2002 Share Option Scheme) which was adopted by shareholders of the Company on December 23, 2002 whereby the directors may, at their
discretion, invite eligible participants to receive options to subscribe for shares subject to the terms and conditions stipulated therein.

Under the 2002 Share Option Scheme, the Company may grant options to Talents (including executive, non-executive and independent non-executive directors), suppliers and professional advisers to subscribe
for shares of the Company. The maximum number of options authorized under the 2002 Share Option Scheme may not, when aggregated with any shares subject to any other executive and Talent share option scheme, exceed 10% of the Companys issued
share capital on the date of adoption. The exercise price of the option is determined by the Companys board of directors at a price not less than the highest of (a) the par value of a share; (b) the average closing price of the
Companys shares for five trading days preceding the grant date; and (c) the closing price of the Companys shares on the date of grant. The 2002 Share Option Scheme is valid and effective for a ten year period up to December 22,
2012 subject to earlier termination by the Company by resolution in general meeting or by the board of directors. The period during which the option may be exercised will be determined by the board of directors at its discretion, save that no option
may be exercised after more than ten years from the date of grant.

The vesting conditions of the respective share option grant are as follows:

Condition 1

Options granted are vested in one year or evenly vested over a period of two to three years. Options are awarded without performance
conditions and are exercisable provided the participants have remained employed by the end of respective vesting periods.

Condition 2

Vesting of the options is conditional upon the performance of the Companys shares over the period from the close of trading in Hong
Kong on November 22, 2007 to November 21, 2010.

Upon fulfillment of the market conditions, certain options granted
vest immediately, while other options affected by the same market conditions vest evenly over a period of three years.

During
the year ended August 31, 2010, one of the market conditions in the option agreement has been replaced and the vesting of certain options became conditional upon the Company reaching a non-market performance condition. Upon fulfillment of this
non-market performance condition, a portion of the options affected by this condition vest immediately, while other options affected by this condition vest evenly over a period of three years.

Condition 3

Vesting of the options is conditional upon the performance of the participants. Options granted are vested over a period of three to four
years from the date of fulfillment of certain key performance indicators.

During the year ended August 31, 2010, one of
the performance conditions has been modified.

Condition 4

Vesting of the options is conditional upon the performance of the participants. Options granted are vested immediately from the date of fulfillment of the certain key performance indicators.

Condition 5

Vesting of the options is conditional upon the performance of the participants. Options granted are vested over a period of three to four
years from the date of fulfillment of certain key performance indicators.

Condition 6

During the year ended August 31, 2011, one of the clauses in the option agreement has been modified. As a result of this
modification, the expiry period of the share option has been extended to 10 years from the grant date of share options. The Group has accounted for the modification in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based payment by measuring the
incremental fair value which is the difference between the fair value of the modified share options and that of the original share options, both estimated as at the date of the modification, and recognizing the incremental fair value over the period
from the modification date until the date when the modified share options vest. If the modification occurs after vesting date, the incremental fair value granted is recognized immediately. The balance of the original grant-date fair value as at the
date of modification continues to be recognized over the remaining original vesting period. The total incremental fair value arisen from this modification amounts to HK$276,000.

Condition 7

During the year ended August 31, 2012 and in connection with the Disposal, certain conditions imposed on the share options were
waived and all unvested outstanding share options become vested and exercisable immediately. The unamortized original grant date fair value was fully recognized to profit or loss as share-based payment expenses at the date of modification amounting
to HK$8,328,000.

|(a) | Aging analysis
|--- | --------------

The aging analysis of accounts receivable, before recognition of impairment losses, is as follows:



|                  |  |             |       |  |             |  |        | 
|----------------- |  | ----------- | ----- |  | ----------- |  | ------ | 
|                  |  | 2012HK$000 |       |  | 2011HK$000 | 
|Current - 30 days |  |             | 573   |  |             |  | 44,949 | 
|31 - 60 days      |  |             | 565   |  |             |  | 16,417 | 
|61 - 90 days      |  |             | 94    |  |             |  | 6,861  | 
|Over 90 days      |  |             | 79    |  |             |  | 10,302 | 
|                  |  |             |       |  |             |  |        | 
|                  |  |             | 1,311 |  |             |  | 78,529 | 
|                  |  |             |       |  |             |  |        | 

The majority of the Groups accounts receivable are due within 30 days from the date of
billings. Customers with receivable that are more than 3 months overdue are requested to settle all outstanding balance before further credit is granted.



|(b) | Impairment of accounts receivable
|--- | ---------------------------------

Impairment losses in respect of accounts receivable are recorded using an allowance account unless the Group is satisfied that recovery of the amount is remote, in which case the impairment loss is
written off against accounts receivable directly (see note 1(k)(i)).

The movement in the allowance for doubtful debts during
the year including both specific and collective loss components is as follows:



|                                        |  |             |         |   |             |  |         |             |  |  |         |

|Balance as at the beginning of the year |  |             | 6,530   |   |             |  | 5,823   |             |  |  | 3,160   |

|(c) | Accounts receivable that are not impaired
|--- | -----------------------------------------

The aging analysis of accounts receivable that are neither individually nor collectively considered to be impaired are as follows:



|                              |  |         |       |  |         |  |        | 
|----------------------------- |  | ------- | ----- |  | ------- |  | ------ | 
|                              |  | 2012    |       |  | 2011    | 
|                              |  | HK$000 |       |  | HK$000 | 
|Neither past due nor impaired |  |         | 573   |  |         |  | 44,949 | 
|0 - 30 past due               |  |         | 565   |  |         |  | 16,417 | 
|31 - 60 past due              |  |         | 94    |  |         |  | 6,861  | 
|Over 60 past due              |  |         | 79    |  |         |  | 3,772  | 
|                              |  |         |       |  |         |  |        | 
|                              |  |         | 1,311 |  |         |  | 71,999 | 
|                              |  |         |       |  |         |  |        | 

Receivables that were neither past due nor impaired relate to a wide range of customers for whom there was
no recent history of default.

Other accounts receivable that were past due but not impaired relate to a number of independent
customers that have a good track record of payment. Based on past experience, management believes that no impairment allowance is necessary in respect of these balances as there has not been a significant change in credit quality and the balances
are still considered fully recoverable. The Group does not hold collateral over these balances.



|(d) | Other receivables, deposits and prepayments
|--- | -------------------------------------------

Other receivables, deposits and prepayments consist of deposits for purchase of fixed assets, rental deposit, interest receivable, unbilled revenue, prepayment and other receivables. All of the other
receivables, except rental deposits and others amounting to HK$1,392,000 (2011: HK$9,026,000), are expected to be recovered within one year.



|18 | Bank deposits and cash

|-- | ---------------------

Exposure to credit, liquidity and interest rate risks arises in the normal course of the Groups business. These risks are limited by
the Groups financial management policies and practices described below.



|(a) | Credit risk
|--- | -----------

The
Groups credit risk is primarily attributable to trade and other receivables. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to the credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis.

In respect of trade and other receivables, credit evaluations are performed on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount. These
evaluations focus on the customers past history of making payments when due and current ability to pay, and take into account information specific to the customer as well as pertaining to the economic environment in which the customer locates.
These receivables are due within 30 days from the date of billing. Customers with receivables that are more than 3 months overdue are requested to settle all outstanding balances before any further credit is granted. The Group generally
does not obtain collateral from customers.

The Groups exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by individual
characteristics of each customer. The default risk of the country in which customer locates also has an influence on credit risk but to a lesser extent. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited due to the
Groups customer base being large and unrelated. As such, management does not expect any significant losses of accounts receivable that have not been provided for by way of allowances as disclosed in note 17.

The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset after deducting any impairment
allowance, in the balance sheet. Except for the financial guarantee given by the Group as disclosed in note 27, the Group does not provide any other guarantees which expose the Group to credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk in respect of
these financial guarantees at the balance sheet date is disclosed in note 27.

Further quantitative disclosures in respect of
the Groups exposure to credit risk arising from accounts receivable are set out in note 17.



|(b) | Liquidity risk
|--- | --------------

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an
adequate amount of credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. To cope with the funding requirement of future business expansion and development, the Group aims to maintain flexibility in funding by keeping adequate free cash
and credit lines available.

The Group determines that there is no significant liquidity risk in view of our adequate funds and
unutilized banking facilities.

|(c) | Interest rate risk
|--- | ------------------

The Groups interest-rate risk arose mainly from the 5-year interest rate swap contract with a HK$175,000,000 notional amount as at
August 31, 2012 and 2011. The Group will pay a fixed rate interest on the notional amount on a quarterly basis, and receive a floating interest rate at HIBOR rate.

Sensitivity analysis

The Groups profit attributable to shareholders
would increase by approximately HK$1,750,000 (2011: HK$1,750,000) in response to a 100 basis-points increase in market interest rates applicable as at August 31, 2012, with all other variables held constant. The analysis performed including the
effect of the Groups interest rate swap contract as disclosed in note 23 to the financial statements.



|(d) | Foreign currency risk
|--- | ---------------------

All the Groups monetary assets and liabilities are primarily denominated in either Hong Kong dollars or United States dollars. Given the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar to the U.S. dollar has
remained close to the current pegged rate of HKD7.80 = USD1.00 since 1983, management does not expect significant foreign exchange gains or losses between the two currencies. The Group did not have significant foreign currency risk at the balance
sheet date.

Financial instrument carried at fair value

The following table presents the carrying value of financial instrument measured at fair value at the balance sheet date across the three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined in IFRS 7, Financial
Instruments: Disclosures , with the fair value of each financial instrument categorized in its entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to that fair value measurement. The levels are defined as follows:



| |  |  | Level 1 (highest level): fair values measured using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial instruments
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2: fair values measured using quoted prices in active markets for similar financial instruments, or using valuation techniques in which all
significant inputs are directly or indirectly based on observable market data
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3 (lowest level): fair values measured using valuation techniques in which any significant input is not based on observable market data

|(f) | Estimation of fair values
|--- | -------------------------

Fair value of financial instruments is estimated as follows:



| | (i) | Trade receivables less impairment provision and account payables are assumed to approximate their fair values.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | The fair value of the interest rate swap is determined based on the discounted cash flow technique which takes into account estimated amount that the Group would
receive or pay to terminate the swap at the balance sheet date, taking into account current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the swap counterparties. Where discounted cash flow techniques are used, estimated future cash flows are
based on managements best estimates and the discount rate is a market related rate for a similar instrument at the balance sheet date.

|30 | Accounting estimates and judgments
|-- | ----------------------------------

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

Note 11, 13 and 26 contain
information about the assumptions and risk factors relating to fair value of share options, investment property and financial instruments. Other key sources of estimation uncertainty are as follows:



|(a) | Provision for programme cost
|--- | ----------------------------

If circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of programmes cost may not be fully recovered, provision for programme cost to write down the amount to net realizable values is recognized as an expense
in the period the write down occurs.



|(b) | Impairment of assets
|--- | --------------------

If circumstances indicate that the carrying value of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets may not be fully recoverable, these assets may be considered impaired, and an impairment loss may
be recognized in accordance with IAS 36, Impairment of assets. In assessing whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired, the Group considers all readily available information from both internal and external source. When
there is adverse change in circumstance, additional impairment may be required.
