(UVEL.L) Univision Engineering Ltd Buy/Sell

Mr. Stephen Koo, Chairman, added:

"The current financial year has been difficult and full of challenges for UniVision. Unfavourable economic conditions from the global financial crisis seriously affected the progress in our larger projects. It is the first year the Group has recorded a loss after tax since listing on AIM. Nevertheless, we have confidence that our performance in the coming year will improve. Our Security and Surveillance business is experiencing strong market demand and provides a stable income to the Group, while the Electrical and Mechanical operations should have a good year.

"The Company is confident it will maintain a competitive advantage in its core CCTV and surveillance business, and achieve growth through the Electrical and Mechanical ("E&M") business."

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

INTRODUCTION

I am pleased to report the Group's results for the financial year ended 31 March 2009.

Last year was a challenging year. Investment and projects are pending or have been delayed due to unfavourable market conditions. The turnover of the Security and Surveillance Systems business declined during the year. Efforts have been focussed on maintenance services, which have enabled constant cash flow for the operation of the Group. Given that infrastructure projects are to be implemented in the coming years in Hong Kong, as well as the expected growing demand for Security and Surveillance in the Greater China Region, we expect an improved trading performance in the short to medium term.

Our Electrical and Mechanical ("E&M") business, which is operated through Leader Smart, a wholly owned subsidiary, based in Shanghai, is improving. We now have a successful operation in the Zhongshan shopping mall in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC"). We have also secured a hotel project in Huangshan, a famous tourist destination in the PRC. Investment has slowed due to the financial crisis, and subsequently the progress of our E&M business has been delayed. We see market conditions improving and once additional funding is available, the above mentioned project will be implemented immediately.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the period under review the relative strengthening in the HK$ against sterling has led to a 14.2% appreciation in the GBP reporting amount in the Income Statement and a 28.8% in the Balance Sheet. All figures in the Financial Statement need to be adjusted for comparative purposes.

Turnover decreased by 37% to £9.2m (2008: £14.5m). This reduction was mainly due to the delayed progress of our E&M projects in the PRC. As a result of this and adjustments relating to the reversal of prior recognition of deferred tax assets on the Group's balance sheet and goodwill impairment in the Group's Taiwan subsidiary, the Company recorded an after tax loss of £0.5m for the year. Nevertheless, our Security and Surveillance business remained stable for which the major customers are public organisations and government departments. With the expected contribution from the E&M projects in the PRC in the coming year, I believe that the turnover decline and the reported loss in this year to improve in the current financial year.

Gross profit margin improved to 33.4% (2008: 30%) due to the effective cost control on the resources of enterprise. The "resources of enterprise" represent our human resources , i.e Project and Maintenance teams, sub-contractors, logistics, and inventory.

Administration expenses increased by 6.2% from last year to £2m (2008: £1.9m). Finance costs increased 207% to £0.7m (2008: £0.2m) due to the provision for interest payable to our Holding Company for the US$6m loan. No significant capital investment occurred in the current year.

Earnings before Interest and Tax (EBIT) are £0.4m (2008: £1.9m). Net (loss)/profit before income tax is (£-0.3m) (2008: £1.7m).

Basic earnings per share decreased from 0.36p to (0.14p) as the Company recorded a loss after income tax in this year.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Markets

Although the financial crisis of the last year has slowed down the investment in technology and the growth of the economy, IMS Research's latest report, "The world Market for CCTV and Video Surveillance Equipment - 2009 Edition" forecasts that the world market for video surveillance equipment will still have growth of 3% in 2009.

There is continuing strong demand for IP Video, such as Digital Video Servers (DVS), Network Video Recorders (NVRs) and Internet Protocol (IP) cameras.

There is growing demand of applying these network based solutions to protect valuable assets and provide a safe environment in transportation, city surveillance, schools and universities.

The Group is looking into several different solutions, including Video compression technology, MPEG-4 and H.264, Digital Encoder and Decoder (Codec) with built-in video analysis algorithms. These systems are particularly prevalent in the Homeland Security field, where new areas of focus will be centred on intruder detection, loitering detection, left behind objects and trip wire.

The Board expects the network video market to show strong growth in the coming years and considers that the Company is well placed to reap the benefits of this growth.

The E&M business in the PRC has made a good start, where we have a successful shopping mall project in Zhongshan, the PRC and the coming project in Huangshan. However, progress will depend on the economic environment and the funding available.

Technologies, Solutions and Products

As technologies become more sophisticated and intelligent, and converge with IT industries, the capacity to provide total solutions, as well as integrated systems, becomes vital.

On the products side, the embedded DVR, which is sold under the UniVision brand, has been used in several projects in Hong Kong. The newly developed Video Amplifier with an on-screen display function has also been used in one of our projects. We are also currently working on some video analysis algorithms and a new application which we expect to launch in the coming year.

Acquisitions and Investments

The Group is not currently anticipating any imminent new acquisitions or investments. However, we are always assessing possible opportunities with a view to making further strategic investments.

Contract Wins

During the reporting period, we have entered into a contract with MTR Corporation Limited ("MTR"), the sole owner and operator of the mass transit railway in Hong Kong, to provide maintenance services to MTR's network of CCTV systems, public address systems and passenger information display systems on six railway lines as well as their related depots and ancillary buildings. The contract has a fixed value of approximately £2.15m over a three year period, commencing on 1 January 2009. Apart from that, we have entered into a contract for £4.8m with Huang Shan Shi Yi Xian Tian Chen Property Development Company Limited and Huang Shan Shi Xiangxigu Holiday Village Limited ("the Developers"), the property developer and hotel operator in the PRC for the hotel project - Huang Shan (Xidi) Xiangxigu Holiday Village in Huangshan, a famous travel city in the PRC.

MTR & Maintenance

Our maintenance contracts are particularly important to the business by providing strong visibility in our revenue and I am delighted that we have substantial growth of the business. We have extended our maintenance services with MTR for another three years. In particular, our relationship with the MTR has proved to be positive. We will have good potential in other confirmed and planned railway line developments in the coming five years.

PROSPECTS

Our Security and Surveillance business remains stable, although it declined in the reporting period. As a result of the infrastructure projects to be implemented in the coming years here in Hong Kong, as well as the expected growing demand on Security and Surveillance in the Greater China Region, we are expecting good prospects in the coming years.

The E&M business in the PRC is still one of our growth targets. We are secured as we take property right as collateral to minimize the credit risk. We have a shopping mall project in Zhongshan, the PRC which is now in the final stage. Also, another hotel project in Huangshan, the PRC is underway. Additional funding is required for this project, as well as other potential projects. Our growth will depend on access to funds.

Finally, on behalf of the Board, I would like to thank our customers, suppliers and shareholders for their continued support of UniVision. I would also like to acknowledge the hard work of the management and all the staff for their contribution and dedication to the Group.
