Disclaimer

Cantor Fitzgerald (Hong Kong) Capital Markets Limited (“CFHK”) provides independent research of Asian equity markets,
which is designed to help our institutional clients outperform their respective benchmarks. In relation to our stocks under
formal coverage, our BUY recommendations are used to draw attention to stocks, which we believe are under-priced by
circa 15% or more and our SELL recommendations are used to draw attention to stocks, which we believe are over-priced
by circa 5% or more. Stocks under formal coverage which we believe will no longer achieve this price differential or stocks
under formal coverage which we do not have a BUY or a SELL recommendation on, would then be a HOLD. The percentage
distribution of our recommendations as at 27th July 2016 was BUY 42%; HOLD 42%, SELL 16%, (Total number of stocks
covered by the Hong Kong Research team was 12 as at 27th July 2016). Target Prices are established in the context of a flat
market. This research note has been prepared by CFHK which is regulated by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures
