( 四合成有限公司 ) ( SHS or the Company, and together with its subsidiaries, the Group ) announced today that its subsidiary, TLC Modular Pte Ltd, has secured two modular construction contracts amounting to NZ$30 million (approximately S$28.1 million) to build a serviced apartment project and a hotel consisting of 20 modular units in New Zealand s South Island. The first contract, through a Letter of Agreement, was for a design-and-build contract with Remarkables Residences Limited, a subsidiary of Singapore-listed Global Yellow Pages Limited, for the development of a 79-keys service apartment comprising 217 modules in Queenstown, New Zealand which is targeted to be completed in FY2019. The parties will proceed to finalize the terms and enter into a fixed-price construction contract. The second contract, signed with Coldwater Properties Limited, is for the supply of 20 modular units for the first phase of Godley Hotel s refurbishment in Tekapo, New Zealand. This project is expected to complete later in FY2018.

We are also gratified that our first project the 88-room Cosa Hotel in Christchurch, New Zealand -- is well on track for completion in the second half of Cosa Hotel will be the first approved modular hotel to be built in New Zealand and its progress and quality have been the springboard for these two new contracts secured. Looking back, our journey to penetrate the New Zealand market with our modular technology had not been smooth. We had to convince skeptics to adopt our new technology in construction, as well as secure the building permits for our type of unconventional building methods. We are proud that despite these challenges, our team had managed to cross these hurdles. We are confident that more of such contracts will flow in for New Zealand, a country that is currently experiencing strong growth in tourism and a severe shortage of affordable homes. The contracts are not expected to have a significant contribution to the Group s FY2018 results, but will add to the Group s results favourably in FY2019. Both clients are using these initial contracts to commence longer-term building programmes for their respective property portfolios using Modular Off-Site construction technology. - End -
