MediLink-Global UK Limited
("MediLink" or "the Company")
HALF-YEARLY REPORT for the six months to 30 june 2016
MediLink, the provider of electronic healthcard network services
to insurance companies and corporate organisations, to help them
facilitate the administration of medical claims and healthcare data
management, announces its interim results for the six months ended
30 June 2016.
Financial highlights
-- Revenue increased by 33.7% to GBP941,000 (H1 2015: GBP704,000);
-- Revenue contribution from Malaysia operations increased by
57.3% to GBP648,000 (H1 2015: GBP412,000);
-- Operating profit of GBP382,000 (H1 2015: operating loss of GBP112,000); and
-- The improvement in operating performance was attributable to
revenue growth in Malaysia arising from the software licensing
contract with Etiqa Insurance Berhad and increased membership
levels, combined with continued cost saving measures within
MediLink's operations.
Operational highlights
Medilink Malaysia
-- The Directors continue to believe there is growing demand in
Malaysia for Third Party Administration ("TPA") services in the
Small and Medium Enterprises Sector as well as Government-link
agencies, Government-link bodies and Government-link Corporations.
MedilinkGlobal (M) Sdn Bhd ("MGMY") is now focusing its business
development effort in these growing market segments.
-- During the period under review, the marginal increase in
membership of 5,000 from the existing self-funded corporate clients
of Medilink Malaysia, contributed to the revenue growth of the
Group.
-- AIA Bhd (AIA) contributed an additional 139,000 members to
the membership growth of Medilink Malaysia during the period under
review.
In collaboration with Qualitas Medical Group Sdn Bhd, a
Malaysian based primary healthcare provider group with operations
in Malaysia and several countries in the Asia Pacific region,
Medilink Malaysia licensed the use of its Claims Management system
and front-end electronic healthcard network infrastructure, to
facilitate on-line-real-time member's eligibility validation and
submission of primary care claims. Through this collaboration, an
additional 15,000 members from a total of 10 employers newly
acquired as of September 2016, were added to the Medilink service
platform.
The Board of Directors of Medilink are confident that there will
be a continuous positive effect for Medilink Malaysia in the years
to come. Notwithstanding this, and further to the announcement
released by the Company on 27 July 2016, the Board considers that
it is no longer in the interests of the Company to continue to be
admitted to trading on AIM. As such, the Company will be seeking
shareholder approval for cancellation of the Company's shares from
trading AIM in the near future.

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
The Board of MediLink is pleased to present the Group's
unaudited results for the six month period ended 30 June 2016,
which show an encouraging trend in improved operating performance
compared with the comparative period for the six months ended 30
June 2015.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Group recorded revenues of GBP941,000 (H1 2015: GBP704,000)
and an operating profit before tax of GBP363,000 (H1 2015:
operating loss of GBP112,000) for the six months ended 30 June 2016
from its continuing operations
Growth in revenues increased by 33.7% over the same period last
year, with revenue from Malaysia growing by 57.3% and TPA income
increasing by 21.5%. The Malaysian operating entities continued to
make the largest contribution of 67% (H1 2015: 59%) of the Group's
revenues for the period under review, whilst Singapore contributed
33% (H1 2015: 42%).
Revenue contribution from Malaysia operations increased by 57.3%
to GBP648,000 (H1 2015: GBP412,000). The Company's operations in
Singapore recorded a marginal increase in revenues, by 8.6% to
GBP317,000, compared with the same period last year (FY 2015:
GBP292,000). After taking into account inter-group transactions in
the period, as detailed in note 5 to the interim results, the
Group's revenue generated in the period totalled GBP941,000.
The Group achieved operating profit for the period compared to
the same period last year as a result of revenue growth in Malaysia
and the cost saving measures taken across all the subsidiaries of
MediLink resulting in a 11% reduction in administrative costs.
PERIOD IN FOCUS
The first half of 2016 witnessed another increase in revenue in
Malaysia from GBP412,000 in the first half of last year to
GBP648,000 for the six months to 30 June 2016, representing a 57.3%
growth over the same period last year. The number of enrolled
members in Malaysia as at the end of June 2016 was approximately
1,050,000 (30 June 2015: 990,000) and this had grown to 1,100,000
by the end of August 2016, while the number of corporate clients
contracted stood at 227 at 30 June 2016, compared to 226 at the
same stage last year. The number of healthcare providers operating
in our network in Malaysia now stands at 1,500 (1,500 at this stage
last year).
In the period under review, the software licensing income
contributed GBP198,000 (2015: GBP3,000), representing 27% of the
33.7% increase in the Company's turnover and 47% of the 57%
increase in Malaysia revenue.
The reduction of administration costs, combined with the strong
contribution from software licensing income and the growth in
membership levels, has helped to generate a healthy operating
profit in Malaysia, representing a significant improvement on the
loss incurred in the corresponding period last year. Management are
not anticipating a significant increase in operating costs in the
second half of 2016.
Further to the completion and deployment of the Claims
Management System licensing to Great Eastern Life Assurance Co.,
Ltd on 11 September 2015, the Malaysia entity had secured an
18-month contract with Etiqa Insurance Berhad for a licensing of
its bespoke Electronic Claims Clearing System (E.C.C.S).
PROSPECTS
With the impact of continued growth in TPA membership revenue,
as well as system licensing in our Malaysia operation, the
Directors are confident that the Group's financial performance
should continue to improve in the second half of 2016 and during
the financial years thereafter.
Notwithstanding the improved financial performance, it is the
opinion of the board that it is no longer in the long term
interests of the Company and its shareholders to continue to be
admitted to trading on AIM, as the Board considers that the costs
associated with the listing are not commensurate with the benefits
that the company is receiving. The Company is in the process of
preparing a circular, setting out further details on the rationale
for seeking cancellation and a further update will be provided in
due course.

Notes to the Interim Financial Information
Six month period ended 30 June 2016
1. Basis of preparation
The financial information has been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by
the European Union. The principal accounting policies used in
preparing the interim results are consistent with those the group
expects to apply in its financial statements for the year ending 31
December 2016 and are consistent with those disclosed in the
group's Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31
December 2015.
The interim results have not been reviewed nor audited by the
Company's auditors. The comparatives for the year ended 31 December
2015 are not the Company's full statutory financial statements for
that period. A copy of the statutory financial statements for that
period, which were prepared under IFRS, have been delivered to the
Registrar of Companies. The auditors' report on those accounts was
unqualified, but included an emphasis of matter in respect of going
concern:
"In forming our opinion on the financial statements, which is
not modified, we have considered the adequacy of the disclosure
made in note 2 (v) to the financial statements concerning the
company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which
depends on the continued shareholder support and the generation of
increased revenues. These conditions, along with the other matters
explained in note 2 (v) to the financial statements, indicate the
existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant
doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include the adjustments that would
result if the company was unable to continue as a going
concern."
Whilst the financial information included in this Interim
Financial information has been prepared in accordance with the
recognition and measurement criteria of IFRS, it does not include
sufficient information to comply with IFRS.
The interim results announcement was approved by the board on 29
September 2016.
2. Basic and diluted loss per ordinary share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss
attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period. In
accordance with IAS 33 and where the Group has reported a loss for
the period, the shares are not dilutive.

4. Taxation
No charge to taxation arises in the six months ended 30 June
2016.
5. Turnover and segmental analysis
Per IFRS 8 operating segments are based on internal reports
about components of the group, which are regularly reviewed and
used by the Board of Directors being the Chief Operating Decision
Maker ("CODM") for strategic decision making and resource
allocation, in order to allocate resources to the segment and to
assess its performance. The Group's reportable operating segments
are as follows:
(I) Third party administrator
(II) Software licensing
The CODM monitors the operating results of each segment for the
purpose of performance assessments and making decisions on resource
allocation. The management has organised the entity based on
differences in products and services. Third party administrator
segment is derived from aggregating China, Malaysia and Singapore
entity while Software licensing segment represent a single entity
from Malaysia. Performance is based on external and internal
revenue generations and profit before tax, which the CODM believes
are the most relevant in evaluating the results relative to other
entities in the industry. Segment assets and liabilities are
presented inclusive of inter segment balances, as inter-segment
pricing. Information regarding each of the operations of each
reportable segment is included below.
