14、I am pleased to present you with the chairmans statement and the annual results of Ocean One Holding Ltd.(the Company”)and its subsidiaries(collectively the“Group”)for the year ended 31 March 2025(“FY2025”).The period under review remained to be challenging to the Group,the business environment and
15、market condition in Hong Kong especially the catering industry was adversely affected by the growing trend of Hong Kong people travelling to Shenzhen and other Greater Bay Area cities during weekends and long holidays,which resulted in the decrease in revenue recorded for the year.With regards to ou
16、r financial performance for FY2025 as compared with the year ended 31 March 2024(“FY2024”),our revenue decreased by approximately HK$62.9 million,or 13.7%from approximately HK$458.7 million to approximately HK$395.9 million,while the gross profit slightly decreased by approximately HK$0.8 million,or
17、 1.3%from approximately HK$66.6 million to approximately HK$65.7 million,with gross profit margin improved from approximately 14.5%for FY2024 to approximately 16.6%for FY2025.The Group recorded a net profit of approximately HK$41.7 million for FY2025 as compared to a net profit of approximately HK$4
18、0.8 million for FY2024.The slight increase in net profit for FY2025 was mainly attributable to the improvement in gross profit margin despite lower revenue generated.Since the successful listing on the GEM of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited(the“Stock Exchange”)on 19 October 2017(the“Listing”
19、),it enhances our profile and further strengthens the Groups reputation in the industry,which in turn fosters our business relationship with key suppliers and customers.During the year,we offered a wide range of frozen seafood products with over 100 product varieties,and we served over 370 customers
20、 which are mainly frozen seafood resellers and frozen seafood catering service providers.Furthermore,the Listing provides us the financial resources to meet and achieve our business opportunities and strategies which will further strengthen the Groups market position in the frozen seafood import and
21、 wholesale industry in Hong Kong.Looking forward to next year,we anticipate that the local catering and food service industry will continue to be under immense pressure due to the changed consumption trend of Hong Kong people,and the uncertainties of the United States trade policy especially potenti
22、al protectionist measures may have certain impact on the supply chain and international trade.The Group will continue to monitor the market closely and with robust planning,we hope it will assist our management team to react to any unprecedented changes and to continue to strive for better business
23、performance and results.Finally,I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to our shareholders,business partners,and to our valued customers for their continuous support,while also expressing my appreciation to the management team and all the staff members for their hard work and contributions t
24、hroughout the period.The management team and all staff members of the Group will continue striving for better results for the Group and maximize values for our shareholders.Chan Kin FungChairman of the Board,Chief Executive Officer and Executive DirectorHong Kong,3 June 2025Annual Report 20255Biogra

45、SS REVIEWThe Group is an established frozen seafood importer and wholesaler in Hong Kong with over 22 years of experience in the frozen seafood import and wholesale industry.It supplies a diverse and wide range of frozen seafood products with more than 100 product varieties to over 370 customers whi
46、ch are mainly frozen seafood resellers and frozen seafood catering service providers.For the year ended 31 March 2025,the Group recorded a net profit of approximately HK$41.7 million as compared to a net profit of approximately HK$40.8 million for the year ended 31 March 2024.The Directors are of th
47、e view that the slight increase in net profit was mainly attributable to the improvement in gross profit margin despite lower revenue generated.In view of the relatively stable net profit generated for the year ended 31 March 2025 despite the weakened local retail market especially the catering indu
48、stry which was adversely affected by the growing trend of Hong Kong people travelling to Shenzhen and other Greater Bay Area cities during weekends and long holidays,the Directors remain cautiously optimistic on the Groups business outlook.OUTLOOKLooking forward,the Directors anticipate that the cat
49、ering and food service industry will continue to be under immense pressure due to the changed consumption trend of Hong Kong people,and the uncertainties of the United States trade policy especially potential protectionist measures may have certain impact on the supply chain and international trade.
50、The Group will closely monitor the market conditions and specifically the local retail market with assessment of the impact on the Groups operations and financial performance,we will closely monitor the Groups exposure to risks and uncertainties on an ongoing basis,and will strengthen the cost savin
51、gs initiatives in view of the challenging conditions.The Directors believe that the listing status of the Group enhances the Groups profile and further strengthens the Groups reputation in the industry,which in turn helps maintaining the business relationship with the existing suppliers and customer
52、s,and exploring potential business opportunities with new suppliers and customers.The net proceeds from the Share Offer have been providing financial resources to the Group to meet and achieve its business opportunities and strategies which will further strengthen the Groups market position in the f
53、rozen seafood import and wholesale industry in Hong Kong.The Group has obtained sale agency arrangements with a number of new foreign suppliers since its Listing,and will continue to pursuit for additional exclusive agency or sale agency arrangements with existing and new foreign suppliers to furthe
54、r enrich our product portfolio and to maintain our competitiveness by carrying a broader product portfolio.The Group shall continue to strive and achieve the business objectives as stated in the prospectus issued by the Company dated 29 September 2017(“Prospectus”).FINANCIAL REVIEWRevenueThe Groups

183、for the deviation from code provision C.2.1 of the CG Code as stated below.The Board will review and monitor the practices of the Company from time to time with an aim to maintain and improve high standards of corporate governance practices.CORPORATE CULTURE AND STRATEGYThe Board has established the
184、 Groups purpose,values and strategy,and has satisfied that they are aligned with the Groups culture.All Directors must act with integrity,lead by example,and promote the desired culture.Such culture should instill and continually reinforce across the Companys values of acting lawfully,ethically and
185、responsibly.The Board believes that corporate culture underpins the long-term business,economic success and sustainable growth of the Group.The Board is committed to maintaining and developing robust corporate governance practices that are intended to ensure the interests of the stakeholders of the
