Operating gross profit was $3.91 billion, and the operating profit was $260 million, representing an annual decrease of 60%, primarily due to the increase in one-off operating expenses, including the provision for the marketing expenses for the launch of a new game and the expenses generated from subsidiary Gash Point transferring to an affiliate, with the increase in the R&D investments of the Group in content and self-produced games. Net profit after tax attributable to owners of the parent company reached $2.07 billion, representing an annual growth of 259%, primarily due to the healthy growth of operations and the recognition of the gains on the disposal of Gash Point, driving the earnings per share to reach $11.78%.
