貿易通 2021 年年報

Chairman’s Statement (Continued) 主席報告書（續） 08 Tradelink Electronic Commerce Limited Annual Report 2021 Review (Continued) As for our Supply Chain Solutions sub-segment under the E-Commerce business, its revenue in 2021 was HK$20.9 million, down 10.3% compared with HK$23.3 million revenue recorded in 2020. Business of this sub-segment improved slightly in the second half of 2021, narrowing the shrinkage recorded in the first half of the year. As mentioned in this year’s Interim Report, revenue of this business sub-segment in 2020 included the hardware equipment which our major retail client ordered and paid for the automated warehouse solution project. Excluding that exceptional income in 2020, the revenue dropped only marginally in 2021. Apart from the recurrent revenue from previously-delivered projects which included, amongst others, the service fee for the maintenance and support we provided to our major retail client for the automated warehouse solution, the amount included revenue recognized for work-in-progress (“WIP”) projects carried forward from previous years, new projects signed in 2021 as well as enhancement projects from existing customers. As more projects were completed and delivered to customers, we are seeing a growing number of enhancement requests, some rather sizeable, on these delivered projects due to additional or changing requirements from customers. Amongst the new projects signed in 2021, a prominent one worth mentioning is a Warehouse Management System (“WMS”) and Transportation Management System (“TMS”) supporting cold- chain logistics operations of a renowned Hong Kong-based service company. This is our first customer in the cold-chain logistics industry using our solutions specifically designed to cater to their cold-chain operation needs. With the development work starting in the second half of the year, we were almost half way through the project by year end, thus enabling us to have the corresponding portion of revenue recognized in 2021. As for our Other Services business which primarily comprised the Smart Point-of-Sales (“PoS”) business and GETS-related services, the revenue and segment profit recorded in 2021 was HK$31.6 million and HK$15.4 million respectively. These compared with the revenue and segment profit in 2020 at HK$23.6 million and HK$10.0 million respectively, represented a surge of 34.2% in revenue and 53.9% in segment profit. These amazing results even surpassed the remarkable performance of this business segment in terms of its revenue and profit growth reported in the first half of 2021. As the local retail market continued to recover, our Smart PoS business eventually rose from the bottom as our major bank customer began to place more orders for Smart PoS solutions from us in the second half of 2021. As a result, revenue of our Smart PoS business at HK$7.6 million in 2021 was up 65% compared to the revenue at HK$4.6 million in 2020. 回顧（續） 電子商務業務旗下的供應鏈應用方案，收益由二零 二零年的港幣 23,300,000 元減少 10.3% 至二零二一 年的港幣 20,900,000 元。這個子分部的業務於二零 二一年下半年稍見起色，收窄了上半年的跌幅。誠 如本年度中期報告所述，這個業務子分部於二零二 零年的收益包括我們其中一個主要零售客戶為自動 化倉庫解決方案項目而訂購的硬件設備，若撇除二 零二零年這筆一次性收入，二零二一年的收益僅 輕微下跌。除了來自先前已交付項目的經常性收 益（當中包括我們就自動化倉庫解決方案項目向主 要零售客戶提供維護與支援的服務費），有關金額 還包括結轉自過往年度而正在進行（「正在進行」）項 目確認的收益、於二零二一年新簽訂的項目以及來 自現有客戶的升級項目。隨著已完成並交付予客戶 的項目愈來愈多，而客戶的要求時有增加或改變， 我們收到來自有關已交付項目的升級要求亦愈來愈 多，部分更屬大型升級項目。於二零二一年簽訂的 新項目當中，特別值得一提的是一個倉庫管理系 統（「倉庫管理系統」）及運輸管理系統（「運輸管理系 統」），用以支援一間香港著名服務公司的冷鏈物流 營運。該公司是我們首個冷鏈物流客戶，我們為其 量身打造方案，以滿足其冷鏈營運之需要。項目的 開發工作已於二零二一年下半年展開，在年底時項 目已接近完成一半，讓我們得以於二零二一年確認 相應部分的收益。 我們的其他服務業務包括智能銷售點（「銷售點」） 業務及 GE T S 相關服務，此分部於二零二一年 的收益及分部溢利分別為港幣 31,600,000 元及 港幣 15,400,000 元，較二零二零年的收益港幣 23,600,000 元及分部溢利港幣 10,000,000 元，分別 上升 34.2% 及 53.9% 。此分部的全年業績十分亮麗， 收益及溢利增長甚至超越二零二一年上半年的水 平。隨著本地零售市場持續復甦，我們於二零二一 年下半年收到更多來自主要銀行客戶的智能銷售點 解決方案新訂單，使智能銷售點業務走出谷底。因 此，智能銷售點業務於二零二一年的收益為港幣 7,600,000 元，較二零二零年的收益港幣 4,600,000 元增加 65% 。
