About Tinci Holdings Limited

Tinci Holdings Ltd. is the parent company of Tinci Sanhe Environmental Engineering Co. Ltd., an environmental engineering company founded in October 2001, which is primarily involved in developing, manufacturing and installing flue gas desulphurisation (FGD) systems for reducing sulphur dioxide ("SO(2) ") emissions from coal-fired power stations and large industrial boilers in China.

Sulphur dioxide discharges rose 27% between 2000 and 2005 in China, where air pollution is blamed for more than 400,000 premature deaths a year. China's State Environmental Protection Administration (SEPA) has estimated that existing and new Chinese plants will require total FGD investment of RMB 102 billion (c. GBP10.1 billion) from 2006-2010, with the total investment required expected to rise to RMB 190 billion (c. GBP18.9 billion) by 2020.

Tinci plans to use its technical capabilities to develop a portfolio of businesses and services around the environmental engineering services sector and the speciality chemical sector in China. The Company's shares are traded on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange under the symbol 'TNCI'.

Chief Executive Officer's Review

Overview of Operating Performance

The Company was successful in winning two projects in the very competitive market in 2011 with a contract value of RMB15.89 million, compared to four projects and a total contract value of RMB133.7 million in 2010. Of the two projects won in 2011, one employs conventional FGD technology and the other employs Spray Dry Absorption technology from Niro of Denmark.

The Company reported in 2010 that because of the extreme competition in the FGD market in China, the Company's management had decided that the Company should gradually transform itself from an engineering company to a product-oriented company by concentrating on developing processes involving the production of chemical products as its mainline business. For FGD business, the Company will focus on the petrochemical sector, especially through China Oil, with whom it has close relations. The Company hopes to achieve a breakthrough in its catalytic refinery project with China Oil in 2012.

The Company's order book at the end of 2011 amounted to RMB45.9 million (2010: RMB104.9 million) but the pipeline of potential orders ended the year well ahead. During 2012 the Company will continue to aim to increase sales and accelerate receivable collection so as to maintain a good cash flow, in the process laying a solid foundation for developing new projects and businesses, particularly in the speciality chemicals sector.

New Project Developments

   1.   PPC Bio-degradable Plastics Project 

The Company announced in 2008 that it had been presented with an opportunity by the Guangdong Provincial Government to exploit new polymerization technology using a newly-invented catalytic process to convert carbon dioxide into a biodegradable plastic polymer through the Company's associate, Guangzhou Tiancheng Biodegradation Materials Company Limited ("Tiancheng").An initial investment of RMB9.8m was made by Tinci in 2007 to secure the rights, acquire land and fund construction and plant.

A further investment of RMB7.84m was made in 2010 to bring the registered capital of Tiancheng to the required level. Tinci's shareholding remains at 49%. During 2010 the Provincial Government granted the land for the joint venture to use. However, the associate's technological progress has been slower than the shareholders planned and the technology risk remains high. A decision will be taken at the end of 2012 about the future of this technology and no further investment will be made until this decision has been made.

   2.   Co-Operation with China oil on Catalytic Refining Project 

We have won one technology contract for catalytic refining projects valued RMB 0.8 million from Lanzhou China Oil and the project was developed in the second half of 2011 with the customer, one of China's major petrochemical companies. The progress so far under the co-operation agreement with China Oil is satisfactory.

   3.   Cooperation with NanFang Alkali 

A co-operation with NanFang Alkali to develop a new project utilizing waste alkali residue as the neutralizing agent for FGD projects was announced in 2009.

The results from this project with NanFang Alkali were satisfactory in 2011and the joint venture became profitable and is expected to gain more projects in 2012.

4. Investment in Jiangsu AnDy

During the year, the Company invested RMB 13.64 million in a 22.5% stake in JiangSu AnDyChemical & Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. ("JiangSu AnDy"), a private company in Jiangsu Province Chinaset up by Mr Kang Hongjie, its CEO and major shareholder. The funds will be used to finance the development of JiangSu AnDy.

The management of JiangSu AnDy, led by Mr Kang, is well known to the Tinci Board and has been successful in developing other chemicals businesses. Tinci's Board and senior management are primarily chemical engineers and this is a sector that they are familiar with. I represent the Company on the Board of JiangSu AnDy for which I do not receive any remuneration from JiangSu AnDy.

JiangSu AnDy is involved in research & development and production and sale of chemical intermediates for the pharmaceutical industry in China.

JiangSu AnDy's audited results for the 12 months ended 31 December 2011 showed profits before and after tax of RMB 3.2 million on turnover of RMB 40.8 million. The company had net assets of RMB35.3 million at that date.

Financial Performance

The total business income in 2011 was RMB 78.1 million which is 29% lower than in 2010. The profit after tax was RMB 0.78 million (compared to a loss of RMB 1.56 million in 2010).

Revenue decreased during 2011 as the company was not able to win sufficient new orders because of stiff competition in the FGD market. Although the decline in revenue was not satisfactory, the economic result in 2011 was a small profit due to firm control of operationalcosts.

Receivables decreased from RMB 199.1 million in 2010 to RMB 152.3 million in 2011 and payables decreased from RMB 160 million in 2010 to RMB 94 million in 2011. The main reason for the decrease in receivables was fast collection of receivables from four projects, Chongqing jiulong, Tianjin tianqiong, Liwen, Dongguan and Luoyang Sinopec, which were completed successfully and produced excellent operating performance.

The cash position decreased from RMB 21.1 million in 2010 to RMB 7.23 million in 2011 mainly due to the investment in JiangSu AnDy.

Outlook

The Company expects FGD sales to be steady in 2012 as it adjusts its business direction focusing its FGD business in China on the petrochemical sector. It has two large tenders outstanding at the date of this report. If both were won, which is thought to be unlikely, results will be ahead of 2011. Otherwise, results are currently expected to be similar to 2011 but with a weaker first half followed by a stronger second half.

Meanwhile, the Company will concentrate more resources in developing new business opportunities, its DeNOx projects and its catalytic refinery project with China Oil in the hope of achieving a breakthrough in one of these new businesses while maintaining a stable income from FGD in 2012.

The Company expects the investment in Jiangsu AnDy will produce a profit in 2012.

Staff and Management

I would like to thank all employees in the Company for their hard work towards the development of the Company. I am also grateful to our shareholders for their steady support and understanding.

   4.         TAXATION 

The Group is subject to income tax on an entity basis on profits arising in or derived from the jurisdictions in which the Group entities are domiciled and operate.

Following the change of the legal form of Guangzhou Tinci from a domestic enterprise to a wholly foreign-owned enterprise ("WFOE") in 2006, Guangzhou Tinci became subject to a foreign enterprise income tax ("FEIT") rate at 30%. Being a WFOE,starting from the first profitable year, Guangzhou Tinci was entitled to a two-year exemption from FEIT and a 50% reduction in its FEIT for the subsequent three years ("Tax Holiday"). As such, Guangzhou Tinci was exempted from FEIT for the two years ended 31 December 2007 and subject to a reduced tax rate for the three years ended 31 December 2010.

On 16 March 2007, The National People's Congress approved the Corporate Income Tax Law of the People's Republic of China (the "New CIT Law"). The New CIT Law unified the FEIT and and enterprise income tax EIT with reduced EIT rate from 33% to 25% with effect from 1 January 2008.

Under the New CIT Law, entities enjoying Tax Holiday will continue to enjoy it until it expires. Accordingly Guangzhou Tinci was subject to PRC EIT at a rate of 12.5% for the fiscal years 2008 to 2010.

In 2011, Guangzhou Tinci has been recognised as a "New High-tech Enterprise." Qualified enterprises are entitled to preferential tax benefits, including reduced EIT of 15% for at least 3 years. Accordingly Guangzhou Tinci is subject to a reduced EIT rate of 15% for the fiscal years 2011 to 2013.

The Group is also subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax through the Company and its subsidiary, World International. No provision for Hong Kong Profits Tax has been made as the Company and World International had no taxable income. The statutory rate of corporate tax in Hong Kong is 16.5% (2010: 16.5%).

 
                                                                    2011         2010 
    The tax charge comprises:                                    RMB'000      RMB'000

-----------------------------------------------------------  -----------  ----------- 
 

Deferred tax has been recognised in the financial statements due to revenue and expenses recognised for financial reporting purposes before being recognised for tax purposes.

   5.         EARNINGS PER SHARE 

Basic earnings/(loss) per share

Basic earnings/(loss) per share are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.

 
                                                      2011            2010

---------------------------------------------  -----------  --------------

---------------------------------------------  -----------  -------------- 
 

Diluted earnings/(loss) per share

The Company has one category of dilutive instrument - share options.

None of the share options of the Company in issue had a dilutive effect on the basic earnings/(loss) per share as the exercise price is above the share price quoted in the AIM market throughout the year. So they are considered as anti-dilutive and have not been included in the diluted earnings/(loss) per share calculation for the years ended 31 December 2011 and 2010.
