Connie Lai, CFO of Global Sources, said: "For the first half of 2011, we anticipate revenue growth to range between 9 percent and 10 percent, compared to the same period a year ago.  This reflects the rescheduling of Global Sourcing Fair: Electronics & Components in Shanghai from the first half to the second half of 2011, and the continued decline of our print revenue.

"We expect our online and exhibition services to perform well and accordingly, expect the revenue mix for the first half to range between 53percent and 54 percent for online, 33 percent and 34 percent for exhibitions, 10 percent and 11 percent for print, and approximately 2 percent for miscellaneous. This compares to the first half of 2010, when the revenue mix was approximately 49 percent for online, 34percent for exhibitions, 15percent for print, and 2percent for miscellaneous. “
