Notes:
(a) | Compared with December 31, 2015, the decrease of $23.2 million in the cash, cash equivalents and short term investments as of December 31, 2016 was mainly due to the translation loss of $12.3 million as a result of the depreciation of Renminbi against US dollars during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, the payments of $6.3 million for share repurchase program and $5.6 million capitalized for land development project, which was recorded under the account of real estate properties under development in the balance sheet as at December 31, 2016. |
(b) | Cash in the financial ratio included cash, cash equivalents and short term investments in the amount of $184.2 million, $207.4 million as at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 respectively. |
OPERATING RESULTS
Operation income for the fourth quarter of 2016 and the same quarter of last year were mainly derived from properties and lands located in Shenzhen. Operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $1.4 million, a decrease of $3.3 million, compared to operating loss of $4.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. Operating loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 was $6.6 million, a decrease of $6.2 million, compared to operating loss of $12.8 million in the same period of 2015. The rental agreement with an external lessee on the Guangming land ended in the second quarter of 2015 due to the expiry of lease terms. As such, from the fourth quarter of 2015 onwards, our operation income has correspondingly been reduced.
Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $5.2 million mainly represented exchange loss of $5.2 million as a result of the depreciation of Renminbi against US dollars in the fourth quarter of 2016 and general and administrative expenses of $2.0 million, but partly offset by the interest income of $1.4 million earned from time deposits and net operation income $0.6 million, or loss of $0.14 per diluted share. Compared to the financial results for the same periods in 2015, the net loss of $5.0 million mainly represented exchange loss of $1.4 million as a result of the depreciation of Renminbi against US dollars in the fourth quarter of 2015 and general and administrative expenses of $4.9 million, but partly offset by the interest income of $1.3 million earned from time deposits and net operation income $0.2 million, or a loss of $0.14 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2015.
Net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 was $9.5 million mainly included the general and administrative expenses of $8.4 million and exchange loss of $8.3 million as a result of the depreciation of Renminbi against US dollars during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, but partly offset by the interest income of $5.6 million earned from time deposits and net operation income $1.8 million, or a loss of $0.26 per diluted share. Compared to the financial results for the same periods in 2015, the net loss of $13.2 million mainly included general and administrative expenses of $13.9 million and exchange loss of $8.7 million as a result of the depreciation of Renminbi against US dollars during the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, but partly offset by the interest income of $8.1 million earned from time deposits and net operation income $1.0 million, or a loss of $0.32 per diluted share in the same period of 2015.
As the majority of our assets are denominated in Renminbi, the translation of Renminbi denominated assets to US dollars for reporting purposes has resulted in foreign exchange loss in this quarter and in the twelve months ended December 31, 2016. Due to the fluctuation of exchange rate for Renminbi against US dollars, foreign exchange loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $5.2 million, comparable to 100% of the amount of our net loss of the same period. And the foreign exchange loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 was $8.3 million, comparable to 87% of the amount of our net loss of the same period. However, since the majority of our payments obligations are also denominated in Renminbi, we do not expect the movement of Renminbi against US dollars to materially and adversely impact our business.
The Board of the Company approved an increase in the annual dividend of 2017 to $0.28 ($0.07 x 4 quarters) from $0.08 ($0.02 x 4 quarters) of 2016 per outstanding share of the Companys common stock, effective from the first quarter of 2017. As shown on the balance sheet of December 31, 2016, the 2017 dividend of approximately $10.2 million had been accrued. The decision to continue dividend payments in 2017 does not necessarily guarantee that dividend payments will continue thereafter or at the same amount.
Capitalization on project investment was $1.3 million for Q4 2016, totaled $6.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, and our accumulated project investment was $37.8 million up to December 31, 2016, which was recorded under the account of real estate properties under development in the balance sheet as at December 31, 2016.

Our business of land development is currently in the preparatory stage where it takes time to apply for the relevant licences from the PRC government. During this preparatory stage of the land development, our only sources of income are from limited deposit interest and rental income; therefore, we expect to continue incur losses during this stage.
Please see page 7 of the Companys Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for further details. This information has also been published on the Companys website at http://www.namtai.com/investors#investors/quarterly_earnings in the quarterly earnings report of Q4 2016 on page 7, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Sale of Wuxi Plant
As for our Wuxi plant, the factory building continues to be listed for sale and we still expect it to be sold within 2017 this year.
Real Estate Market Conditions in China
According to the latest data announced by National Bureau of Statistics on January 18, 2017, the average price of new homes in 70 major cities rose 10.5 percent year-on-year in November and December, from 10.1 percent in October, while the price of new homes in Shenzhen City in December rose 23.5 percent year-on-year. And, more than 72 percent of the cities saw prices rose on a monthly basis.
Nevertheless, under the restrictive measures implemented in the beginning of October 2016, tier one and certain hotspot tier two cities saw a rapid cooling in real estate market, while price of new homes in middle-sized and small cities stayed relatively stable. Compare to the data of September 2016 announced by National Bureau of Statistics, price of new homes in Shenzhen City decreased 0.5 percent in October and 0.3 percent in November.

China will promote the stable and healthy development of the real estate market in 2017, said a statement issued after the Central Economic Work Conference held among Chinese leaders and senior officials between December 14, 2016 to December 16, 2016, the country will establish a market-oriented and long-term mechanism that can curb a real estate bubble and prevent erratic fluctuations. The government will use land, investment, lawmaking, fiscal and taxation and financial instruments in order to achieve its aim.
Potential Risks in our business
(A) | Income will drop continuously due to the decrease in interest income as well as the cessation of rental income after the rental contract expires in October 2017 |
We currently derive a majority of our income from interest and rental income. Since 2016, we have seen a stabilizing trend on the benchmark interest rates in China. However, due to the current economic conditions in China, we expect the Peoples Bank of China (PBOC) to keep Renminbi-denominated official time deposit interest rates in China at a low level throughout 2017, which in turn would keep our interest income low. This lower interest rate environment will be compounded when our rental income ceases after the rental contract expired in October this year. At the same time, we continue to expect operating losses in 2017 and beyond.
(B) | Fluctuations in foreign exchange will incur the losses on accounts book reporting |
As the majority of our assets are denominated in Renminbi, the translation of Renminbi-denominated assets to US dollar for our reporting purposes has resulted in a foreign exchange loss in this quarter. We expect to continue see fluctuations in the reporting of foreign exchange loss/gain in the financial statements due to the movement of Renminbi against the US dollar. However, as a majority of our payments obligations are denominated in Renminbi, we do not expect the movement of Renminbi against the US dollar to materially and adversely impact our business.
(C) | Finance Update |
As of December 31, 2016, we have a total cash balance of $184.2 million and no debt. With our current cash position, we believe our finances remain healthy to fund the initial stages of these property development projects within the coming one and a half years. Cash on hand is expected to drop continuously, but most of the expenses incurred will be for project development, which will be capitalized as real estate properties under development (non-current asset) on our balance sheet. For the potential shortage of funds after the coming one and a half years, the management will consider utilizing banking facilities or to issuing debentures to raise funds. However, if our financing measures are not successful, the Company may face liquidity and other financial risks.
(D) | Taxation policy on the PRCs real estate industry maybe changed in the future |
The Companys operating loss will decreased as our activities will consist principally of capitalized project investments, while certain operating losses may be carried forward as tax credits in future years. However, if the relevant PRCs tax policy within the real estate industry changes, our original forecasted profits will be affected in the future.
(E) | The PRC Government policies and regulations in the PRCs real estate market maybe changed in the future |
All of our land development related applications are subject to government policies and regulations in the real estate market. As this is our first venture into the land development projects after the cessation of our LCM business, we may encounter industry-specific difficulties that could result in losses as we progress with our projects in Shenzhen.
(F) | Capitalization on project investment |
According to our project development plan, project investment for Q1 2017 is estimated to be $1.5 million, and project investment for the year 2017 is estimated to be $60 million. For more information on the risks of our business, please refer to the Risk Factors section of our 2015 Annual Report on Form 20-F as filed with the SEC and on our website.

The Companys decision to continue making dividend payments in 2017 as set out and confirmed in the above table does not necessarily mean that cash dividend payments will continue thereafter or at the same amount. Whether future dividends after 2017 are to be declared will depend upon Companys future growth and earnings at each relevant period, of which there can be no assurance, and the Companys cash flow needs for business operations and transformation. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that cash dividends on the Companys common shares will be declared beyond those declared for 2017, and we also cannot assure you what the amounts of such dividends will be or whether such dividends, once declared for a specific period, will continue for any future period, or at all.

To maintain the efficiency of delivering the Companys quarterly financial results to the market, the Companys management has decided to follow approximately the same schedule of 2016 to release the quarterly financial results for 2017. Details of the expected quarterly release dates are as follows:

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE OUR SHARE PRICE TO DECLINE
Certain statements included in this press release, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as may, will, expect, intend, estimate, anticipate, plan, seek or believe. These forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, may include projections of our future financial performance based on our growth strategies and anticipated trends in our business. These statements are only predictions based on our current expectations about future events. There are important factors that could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance, or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activities, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, delay in the Companys ability to obtain all requisite permits and approvals from relevant government authorities in relation to the redevelopment of two parcels of properties in Gushu, Shenzhen, and Guangming, Shenzhen, respectively, and the successful redevelopment of the two parcels of properties; the sufficiency of the Companys cash position and other sources of liquidity to fund its property developments; continued inflation and appreciation of the Renminbi against the US dollar; rising labor costs in China and changes in the labor supply and labor relations. In particular, you should consider the risks outlined under the heading Risk Factors in our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F and in our Current Report filed from time to time on Form 6-K. The Companys decision to continue dividend payments in 2017 does not necessarily mean that dividend payments will continue thereafter. Whether future dividends will be declared depends upon the Companys future growth and earnings, of which there can be no assurance, as well as the Companys cash flow needs for further expansion. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that cash dividends on the Companys common shares will be declared beyond those declared for 2017, what amount those dividends may be or whether such dividends, once declared for a specific period, will continue for any future period, or at all; and whether we will purchase any of our shares in the open markets or otherwise. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance, or achievements. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. These forward-looking statements apply only as of the date of this press release; as such, they should not be unduly relied upon as circumstances change. Except as required by law, we are not obligated, and we undertake no obligation, to release publicly any revisions to these forward-looking statements that might reflect events or circumstance occurring after the date of this release or those that might reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Note:
(1) | According to the definition of Balance Sheet under the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 210-10-20, cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash. Only investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased qualify under that definition. Therefore, the fixed deposits maturing over three months in amount of $89.6 million and $50.0 million as at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, are not classified as cash and cash equivalents but are separately disclosed as short term investments in the balance sheet. |
(2) | Capitalization on project investment was $1.3 million for Q4 2016, $6.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, and our accumulated project investment was $37.8 million up to December 31, 2016. |
(3) | Certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current periods presentation and disclosure. |
(4) | Accumulated other comprehensive loss represented foreign currency translation adjustment. |
