-- Tables to Follow --

The diluted net loss per share was the same as the basic net loss per share for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 and 2010 as all potential ordinary shares including the stock options and warrants are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share.

The company reported that net sales for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009, decreased to $14.9 million as compared to $22.4 million during the same period last year. Net loss was $0.97 million or $0.17 per share (diluted) as compared to an income of $0.44 million or $0.08 per share (diluted) during the same period last year.

Mr. Anthony So, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Bonso, stated, “Revenue for the first six months was low due to the worldwide financial crisis and general lack of demand for consumer products due to poor economic conditions. We expect that increased orders received during the second half of the year will offset some of the losses recorded in the first six months of the year.”

Mr. So further stated, “We expect the demand of our products will continue to increase during calendar 2010 as a result of the strengthening economy worldwide. We are well prepared for the increase in demand in production capacity in our current factory in Shenzhen, China. Further, our new factory in Xinxing, China will be complete in about two years. Our cash balance remains strong, with $10.7 million on hand (or $1.92 per share) on September 30, 2009.”

Bonso reported a net loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 of $7.6 million or $1.36 basic and diluted loss per share, as compared to a net loss of $8.6 million or $1.53 basic and diluted loss per share posted during fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. Net sales for the year ended March 31, 2009 decreased 11.2% to $40.4 million from $45.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2008.

Mr. Anthony So, President and CEO stated: "During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, we disposed of our Canadian subsidiary, Gram Precision Scales Inc. ("Gram"), effective as of November 1, 2008. Also, we sold the key assets of our German subsidiary, Korona Haushaltswaren GmbH & Co. KG ("Korona"), to an unaffiliated company, and we are now in the process of liquidating Korona.

"During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, these two subsidiaries had combined operating losses of $4.6 million. In connection with the Gram disposition, we wrote off approximately $3.7 million of inter-company receivables that were owed by Gram to Bonso. In addition, we wrote off the entire $1.7 million dollar note that we received in connection with the sale of our interest in Gram, because of uncertainty with respect to our ability to collect on that note. In connection with the sale of the assets of Korona and our decision to liquidate Korona, we recorded a $1.4 million provision for the projected liquidation cost of Korona and also wrote off approximately $2.2 million of inter-company receivables that were owed by Korona to Bonso. In connection with the reduction of staff in the PRC during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, we recorded a provision of approximately $0.8 million for severance payments."

Mr. So went on to state: "I am very optimistic about Bonso's future. Gram and Korona have had a significant negative impact upon our financial performance for a number of years, and our future performance looks much brighter for our shareholders without the burdens associated with those two companies."

Mr. So said further: "We maintain a strong cash position, which was $8.0 million (or $1.44 per share) as of March 31, 2009. We believe our shares are undervalued, and we intend to buy back our shares in the market. Also, we are focusing on developing new products with our existing and potential customers, and reducing our manufacturing costs and material costs, to increase our profitability."

The company reported that net sales for the six-month period ended September 30, 2008, decreased by 15.5% to $30,100,000 as compared to $35,607,000 during the same period last year. Net income increased by 132.9% to $444,000 or $0.08 per share (diluted) as compared to a loss of $1,350,000 or $0.24 per share (diluted) during the same period last year.

Mr. Anthony So, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Bonso, stated, “Because of rising labor and material costs, we have intentionally given up orders of telecommunication products with low profit margins. As a result, although revenue decreased, our profit increased. With the implementation of our cost savings plan, the gross profit margin has increased to 19.2%, compared to 12.4% during the same period last year.”

Mr. So further stated, “Our focus for the second half of our fiscal year is on our core business with existing customers, exploring new potential markets, and disposing of our unprofitable subsidiaries. Also, we believe our shares are undervalued, and we will purchase our shares in the market. With the turnaround in the first half of the year, we have strengthened our Balance Sheet with the cash position at the end of the second quarter of $11.7 million, or approximately $2.11 per share.”

Mr. So also stated, “I am pleased to report that we completed the sale of our 51% owned Canadian subsidiary effective as of November 1, 2008, and we are in the process of trying to sell our German subsidiary, in order to minimize loss. The sale of the Canadian subsidiary is not expected to result in any financial statement gain or loss to the

Company, and we believe that it will have a positive impact upon our future operations.”
