Preliminary Results
The Board of Bolton Group (International) Limited ('Group') real estate holding
and development group, announces its preliminary unaudited results for the year
ended 30 April 2005.
Chairman's Statement
The Directors, who were appointed on 29 November 2004 following the return of
the Group's two subsidiaries (Urania Securities Limited and Bolton Group Plc) to
the Group have been involved in resolving various disputes and liabilities
relating to the Group and its subsidiaries. This has been time consuming due to
the lack of documentation.
The Group has agreed equity for debt with a number of creditors which has
substantially reduced the Group's liabilities.
Richards Butler, (Solicitors in Hong Kong), have obtained a judgement in Hong
Kong for a disputed debt together with an order for costs. This relates to
transactions purportedly undertaken on behalf of China Strategic/Bolton Group
some eight years ago. Group did not defend the action for this purported debt at
trial in Hong Kong due to the costs involved. In addition, Group's defence to
the claim required the co-operation of the previous Directors of Bolton Group
(International) Limited, who were at the time the alleged debt was incurred
Directors of China Strategic and their co-operation was not forthcoming.
Richards Butler Hong Kong have been offered equity in lieu of debt and we are
awaiting their response.
Following the return of the Group's subsidiaries in November 2004 the financial
situation of Urania Securities Limited was considered and after taking advice,
there was no alternative other than to put Urania into administration.
The Board is continuing to pursue its endeavours to move the Company forward
into areas in which shareholders value will be maximised.
