Outlook

The US residential property market continued to consolidate as a result of coronavirus. Buyer’s sentiment and property activities are expected to improve following the reopening of the economy and on hopes for the development of vaccines against coronavirus. We place a major focus on the property business which accounts for a large proportion of our operations, and consider New Jersey and Pennsylvania as our key markets. Skywide strives to expand by seizing suitable business opportunities with good potential, capitalizing our experience in different business areas including investment, operation, finance and risk management. Investments are made in the interests of our shareholders as a whole who will ultimately benefit from the profit gained from our investments by way of dividend distribution. Given the rapidly changing economic landscape, which is filled with uncertainties, we will be mindful of evolving trends in economic developments and will continue to manage our businesses with prudence.
