HONG KONG - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Hong Kong has a free market economy, highly dependent on international trade and finance - the value of goods and services trade, including the sizable share of re-exports, is about four times GDP. Hong Kong has no tariffs on imported goods, and it levies excise duties on only four commodities, whether imported or produced locally: hard alcohol, tobacco, hydrocarbon oil, and methyl alcohol. There are no quotas or dumping laws. Hong Kong's open economy left it exposed to the global economic slowdown that began in 2008. Although increasing integration with China, through trade, tourism, and financial links, helped it to make an initial recovery more quickly than many observers anticipated, its continued reliance on foreign trade and investment leaves it vulnerable to renewed global financial market volatility or a slowdown in the global economy. The Hong Kong government is promoting the Special Administrative Region (SAR) as the site for Chinese renminbi (RMB) internationalization. Hong Kong residents are allowed to establish RMB-denominated savings accounts; RMB-denominated corporate and Chinese government bonds have been issued in Hong Kong; and RMB trade settlement is allowed. The territory far exceeded the RMB conversion quota set by Beijing for trade settlements in 2010 due to the growth of earnings from exports to the mainland. RMB deposits grew to roughly 12.5% of total system deposits in Hong Kong by the end of 2014. The government is pursuing efforts to introduce additional use of RMB in Hong Kong financial markets and is seeking to expand the RMB quota. The mainland has long been Hong Kong's largest trading partner, accounting for about half of Hong Kong's total trade by value. Hong Kong's natural resources are limited, and food and raw materials must be imported. As a result of China's easing of travel restrictions, the number of mainland tourists to the territory has surged from 4.5 million in 2001 to 47.3 million in 2014, outnumbering visitors from all other countries combined. Hong Kong has also established itself as the premier stock market for Chinese firms seeking to list abroad. In 2014 mainland Chinese companies constituted about 50% of the firms listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and accounted for about 60.1% of the Exchange's market capitalization. During the past decade, as Hong Kong's manufacturing industry moved to the mainland, its service industry has grown rapidly. Credit expansion and tight housing supply conditions have caused Hong Kong property prices to rise rapidly; consumer prices increased by more than 4.4% in 2014. Lower and middle income segments of the population are increasingly unable to afford adequate housing. Hong Kong continues to link its currency closely to the US dollar, maintaining an arrangement established in 1983. In 2014, Hong Kong and China signed a new agreement on achieving basic liberalization of trade in services in Guangdong Province under the Closer Economic Partnership Agreement, adopted in 2003 to forge closer ties between Hong Kong and the mainland. The new measures, effective from March 2015, cover a negative list and a most-favored treatment provision, and will improve access to the mainland's service sector for Hong Kong-based companies.

GENERAL

 

ZXG International (HK) Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shenzhen ZTE Supply Chain Co. Ltd. [Shenzhen ZTE], China.  In turn, Shenzhen ZTE is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ZTE Corporation [ZTE], a China-based company.

ZTE is a Hong Kong listed company bearing stock code 763HK.  It is also a listed company in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, China.

The subject in fact was the logistics department of ZTE.  In 2011, the department was spun off from the parent and became the subject which is a legal entity.

The subject is not only providing the Group’s associated companies with all kinds of logistic services, but also the other companies.  Since ZTE is a significant company in China, the subject is able to take advantage of this and is able to get more and more portfolios.

ZTE is a leading integrated telecommunications equipment manufacturer in the world market and a provider of global telecommunications solutions, with shares listed on the main board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

In November 1997, ZTE conducted an initial public offering of A shares for listing on the main board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.  The Company is currently the largest telecommunications equipment manufacturer in China’s A share market in terms of operating revenue.  In December 2004, ZTE conducted an initial public offering of H shares for listing on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, becoming the first A-share company to be listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

The Group is dedicated to the design, development, production, distribution and installation of a broad range of advanced telecommunications systems and equipment, including carriers networks, terminals and telecommunications software systems, services and other products.  The Group is one of the major telecommunications equipment suppliers in China’s telecommunications market and has also succeeded in gaining access to the international telecommunications market with respect to each of its major product segments.  The Group has achieved a leading market position for its various telecommunications products in China with longstanding business ties with China’s leading telecommunications service providers such as China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom.  With respect to the global telecommunications market, the Group has provided innovative technology and product solutions to telecommunications service providers in more than 140 countries and regions, making contributions to facilitate communications via multiple means, such as voice, data, multi-media, wireless broadband and cable broadband, for users all over the world.

The Group’s overall operating revenue for 2014 increased by 8.3% to RMB81.47 billion Yuan as compared to 2013, primarily reflecting operating revenue growth for 4G system products in the domestic and international markets, routers and switches in the domestic and international markets, optical communication systems in the domestic market and 4G handsets in the domestic and international markets.  In 2014, the continued growth in scale of the Group’s domestic and international 4G system equipment business and domestic and international 4G handset business coupled with ongoing improvements in contract profitability resulted in growth in both sales volume and gross profit margin.  In addition, the Group enhanced financial expenses control and mitigated the impact of exchange rate volatility on the Group’s operations, resulting in the relatively substantial decrease in overall financial expenses.  As a result of the aforesaid factors, the Group reported net profit attributable to shareholders of the listed company of RMB2.63 billion Yuan for 2014, representing a year-on-year growth of 94.0%.

During the year 2014, the Group reported operating revenue of RMB40.58 billion Yuan from the domestic market, accounting for 49.8% of the Group’s overall operating revenue.  The Group worked proactively in support of the network construction plans of domestic carriers as it established and implemented in depth its M-ICT Strategy and maintained its dominant market position through competitive innovative solutions.  Moreover, the Group also made vigorous moves to roll out its operations in strategic emerging sectors such as Cloud Computing, Big Data and Smart City, with a view to ensuring positive development in the long term.

During the year, the Group reported operating revenue of RMB40.89 billion Yuan from the international market, accounting for 50.2% of the Group’s overall operating revenue.  The Group has formed comprehensive partnerships with mainstream global carriers as it continued to focus on major populous nations and mainstream global carriers and bolster its competitiveness on all fronts while securing stable operations and quality growth.

During the year, the Group reported operating revenue of RMB46.77 billion Yuan for carriers’ networks.  Operating revenue for handset terminals amounted to RMB23.12 billion Yuan.  Operating revenue for telecommunications software systems, services and other products amounted to RMB11.58 billion Yuan.

For the year ended 2014, the Group had 75,609 employees while 35.9% of them are engaged in research and development.

The subject is fully supported by the Group.

On the whole, since the history of the subject is short, consider it good for normal business engagements on L/C basis or in small credit amounts.
