Principal Business, Operation Model and Current Situation of the Industry in the Reporting Period Principal business of Wellhope (hereinafter referred to as "the Company") primarily consists of feed production and sale, feed raw materials trade, integrated broiler business, pig raising business and related business. All the operating segments run under the overall strategy, and carry out operation activities in their respective business areas in an orderly manner. 1. Feed business and feed raw materials trade business A. Snapshot of the industry African swine fever is reshaping China’s feed and pig raising industries. In the first half of 2019, pig inventories continuously decreased due to swine fever. The statistics showed that the inventories of reproductive sow and pig in the end of June 2019 respectively declined 26.61% and 28.79% compared with the same period of prior year, and the deliveries of pig from January to June in 2019 fell 11.47% on a year-on-year basis. African swine fever has brought a huge impact on the entire industry, the consumption of pig feed has dropped significantly, feed companies lowered feed price to seize their market share, making competitions among feed players fierce. Meanwhile, feed product portfolios have been significant changed. On one hand, African swine fever boosted the development of broiler, layer and ruminant raising industries, which stimulated the consumption of poultry feed, ruminant and aquatic feed. On the other hand, some pig feed players increased the production of poultry, aquatic and ruminant feed to ensure operating rate, which indirectly promoted the growing output of poultry, aquatic and ruminant feed. According to public statistics, China's total feed production in the first half of 2019 reached 93.06 million tonnes, dropped 0.5% compared with the same period of prior year, pig feed of which recorded 36.3 million tonnes, decreased 14%, layer feed realized 13.03 million tonnes, increased 10.5%, broiler feed reached 32.79 million tonnes, rose 12.4%, ruminant feed realized 4.42 million tonnes, grew 4.9%. In January 2019, pig feed and poultry feed respectively accounted for 46% and 30.9% of total feed production, while in June, accounted for 34.9% and 35.3% respectively. 8 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report Moreover, in accordance with the newly revised regulations, starting from July 2019, feed manufacturers should use new production license instead of original inspection certificate. In the meantime, higher requirements have been put forward in terms of processing equipment and quality inspection, etc., market access for feed players has been stricter. Furthermore, from July 1st, 2020, feed manufacturers have to stop producing commercial feed that contains additives of growth-promoting drugs (except traditional Chinese medicine), previously produced commercial feed can be used until December 31st, 2020. B. Business profile The Company manufactures and sells animal feed for swine, poultry, ruminant, aquatic and fur-farmed animals, which are categorized into premix, concentrate and compound feed. Driven by the principle of “constantly working on new products, never following the beaten path”, it always designs tailor-made products for animals in different growth stages. Since 2006, the Company has entered a strategic cooperation with Royal De Heus, a Dutch company also a global player in animal nutrition, which is active in over 75 countries. Supported by De Heus' worldwide resources, advanced know-how and centurial business practices, whilst relying on self-owned data-based nutrition evaluation system that derives from years of researches on nutrition and raw materials, the Company is committed to supplying feed products centered on the needs of local markets and customers, to offering farmers integrated services in terms of animal raising, disease prevention and control as well as operation management, helping them to achieve the best economic benefits. The subsidiary trade companies mainly trade in feed raw materials in terms of fish meal, soybean meal and co-products of corn, also engage in feed additives including amino acid, antioxidant, mold inhibitors and vitamin. In addition, the trade companies are the sales agents of animal health products such as vaccines and veterinary medicine produced by global strategic suppliers. Based on tremendous strengths in technology, research and development (hereinafter referred to as "R&D"), seasoned talents and brand influence, the Company has created an operation model of integrating science and technology, manufacture and trade for feed and feed raw materials trade businesses, serving customers and local markets through resources sharing, synergetic development and combined action.

Integrated broiler business A. Snapshot of the industry In regard of supply, supported by prosperous broiler market, the amount of new replacement of grandparent stock increased in the first half of 2019, 15 local companies replaced their grandparent stock. The production of day old chick of parent stock was lower in the first quarter, but showed a rapid growth in the second quarter. In the meantime, the inventories of parent breeders and enforced molting breeders grew. The statistics indicated that in the first half of 2019, the production of day old chick of parent stock in China increased 16% compared with the same period of prior year, commercial day old chick grew 11%. However, the production performance of breeders was relatively lower, whilst the overall consumption needs were positive, so the situation of tight supply of white feather broiler did not change substantially. In regard of demand, the statistics showed that in the first half of 2019, the price of domestic chicken products rose 7.5% compared with prior month and grew 25.1% on a year-on-year basis. From January to May, chicken price increased in fluctuations and reached the highest in May (12,800-13,000 yuan per tonnes), which was the second highest price since 2011, but downstream inventories and other factors pushed chicken price back down in June. In regard of consumption, the demand for chicken products rose significantly. Benefiting from the characteristics of high protein, low fat and low sterol, people's preference for chicken has been increased constantly, in addition, at present influenced by severe African swine fever, as the alternative, the price of chicken products was rising driven by the soaring price of pork. In general, in the first half of 2019, the supply and demand of white feather broiler industry were flourishing with good expectations, and the overall profit level of the industry realized historic high. 10 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report B.

Pig raising business A. Snapshot of the industry In terms of supply, affected by African swine fever, the inventories of breeding sow declined sharply in the first half of 2019 in China, making the supply of piglets tightened, the deliveries of pig were far below consumer demand. The statistics indicated that, the inventories of breeding sow and pig in the end of June 2019 respectively declined 26.61% and 28.79% compared with the same period of prior year. From January to June, the supply of piglets decreased 29.27%, the deliveries of pig declined 11.47%, and the pork production decreased 10.31% compared with the same period of prior year, the short supply spurred a rapid rise in pig price. In June, pig prices in the provinces of Liaoning, Guangdong and other places broke 20 yuan per kg, pig raising industry made up deficits and got surpluses. In terms of demand, the consumer demand of pork decreased to some extent dragged down by African swine fever. However, at present, China still has a huge shortfall of pork and the demand of pig exceeds supply. The statistics showed that in the first half of 2019, the domestic pig price soared from 11 yuan per kg to 17 yuan. From the perspective of meat consumption, transporting live pigs was restricted to some extent, making circulating with cold-chain gradually increase, and the release of frozen meat inventories in 2018 alleviated the consumption pressure of pork. Under the backdrop of a severe shortage of pork, the consumptions of alternative chicken, beef, mutton and eggs have been gradually increased. Chicken, in particular, has become more and more popular among consumers due to its good characteristics, and has gradually become the preferred alternative for pork. To conclude, in the first half of this year, the supply of pig showed the tight trend, and pig price started to rise. The pig raising industry turned from deficit to profit. At the same time, the substitution effect of other protein foods on pork gradually increased. B. Business profile The Company has entered pig raising business by self-built farms and co-invested farms that are primarily located in the provinces of Liaoning, Henan, Hebei, Heilongjiang and Anhui. In 2019, the first stage of 500,000 heads' pig project located in Fushun city of 13 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report Liaoning Province was completed and came into operation in April, the pig project located in Guanmen mountain of Fushun city will finish construction in the end of September, and the construction of pig project in Gongzhuling city will be completed in the end of October. The Company raises breeder by self-owned farms, and rears finisher by self-owned farms together with contract(out-sourcing) family farms, following the pattern of "unifying five aspects" in terms of unified pig house standard, unified piglet supply, unified feed supply, unified feeding management and unified repurchase of commercial piglet. Among the Company's pig projects, Lingyuan breeder farm is a designated trial farm of the national pig industry system, and the pig project located in Henan Province, raises sows by its own farms, also buys piglets for contract farms, which provides effective supports for pig feed business of regional companies.

II. Core Competitiveness Analysis within the Reporting Period Core competitiveness of the Company lies in a highly educated, experienced, loyal and stable management team, rationally planned and steady-development based corporate 14 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report strategy, increasingly matured and competitive integrated operation model, systematic, scientific and continuously innovative technology system, development-driven and strongly rooted corporate culture. 1. Highly educated, experienced, loyal and stable management team The highly educated senior managers of the Company have professional background of over 20-year's experiences in feed and animal husbandry industries as well as business management. They are pioneers and developers of the Company, who are committed to insisting entrepreneurship, acquiring new knowledge and keeping pace with the era over the years. The seven founders of the Company always hold together and fight together, they are praised as "seven noble partners” in the industry, the high solidarity of the start-up shareholders has become the Company's most significant core competitiveness, whilst “Unity is Power” is also one part of the core culture. Almost all the middle and senior managers are internally selected and cultivated by the Company, they have deep understanding and recognition of the corporate culture and operation model, they have strong sense of ownership, full sense of mission and responsibility, devoting themselves to the sustainable development of the Company. Within over 20 years, the management team has maintained high stability, almost no chief director or above level manager leaves the Company, in regard of over 100 general managers, besides those who are adjusted due to substandard performance, also few of them quit the job. Meanwhile, newly promoted members born in the 1980s and 1990s are selected from key talents' cultivation programs, such as “Seedling Plan” and “Sunflower Program”, they love the Company, highly recognize the corporate culture, become the backbone force of the management team. As a reward, the Company offers core members equity incentive policies in different ways, moreover, it also pays high attention to continuous learning and ability improvement of these managers, provides them with different training programs, including Executive Development Program, Leadership Training Camp, etc., which are conducted strict training and appraisal rules. Whilst it also organizes those managers to study from some leading companies at home and abroad to broaden their horizons and make further progress. The main reason that causes the failure of some domestic companies is attributable to “unstable and disunited management team”, in contrast, the highly educated, loyal and stable management team is one of the core competitiveness of Wellhope, making the 15 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report Company having faith in future and moving forward. 2. Rationally planned and steady-development based corporate strategy Based on comprehensive understanding of domestic and overseas political, economic and industrial trends, the Company always pays attention to its sustainable development and risk control, and focuses on its operation quality and the investment return of new projects. Driven by a stable and conscientious investment attitude, the Company always rationalizes its business distribution, develops step by step instead of investing and expanding businesses recklessly, always maintains the rationality and safety of industrial structures and avoids all kinds of risks regarding business operation. Rationally planned and steady-development-based corporate strategy reflects in the following aspects: The Company has primarily formed an industrial chain with high competitiveness and capability of risk prevention and control in the fields of raw material trade, feed manufacturing and selling, animal raising, slaughtering and further processing, which can improve its competitiveness, enable all business divisions to connect closely, reduce the cost of intermediate links, improve profit margin and greatly mitigate the risks of single operation. Instead of rapidly covering nationwide markets supported by the success of feed business in Northeast regions and integrated broiler business, the Company, with rich experiences in market expanding, insists on exploring new markets basing on overall analysis and investigations, step by step entering the markets in Northeast, Northern China, Henan, Shandong and other areas. It moves forward steadily and purses asset-light operation, always focuses on overall operation quality and returns on investment, following the principle of “making existing businesses stronger, accumulating business practices, laying a solid foundation, seeking for the dominate position gradually”. The sales volume and growth rate of all feed categories in terms of pig, poultry, ruminant and aquatic products are relatively balanced and each has its advantages. While constantly promoting integrated broiler business, the Company has entered pig raising business, and plans to take 5 to 8 years to craft an operation model driven by two complementary engines in terms of integrated broiler and integrated pig businesses. Such business layout, 16 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report with high risk resistance, will not lead the Company to a rather high fluctuation due to a big blow or a downturn suffered by one of the business. In 2018, the Company conducted "SWOT” analysis regarding itself on a scientific and prudent basis, finally confirmed its development goals for recent three years and next ten years, and formed a development strategy from 2019 to 2021, i.e.: "To steadily improve existing core businesses, to vigorously develop emerging strategic businesses and actively cultivate potential businesses. In the following three years, to further echelon the talents team, to unremittingly innovate technology and marketing pattern, information resources, investment and financing platform, to deeply expand international business centered on Southeast Asia, forming an operation model with "leading-edge quality and efficiency" that can create synergies and reduce costs among all business divisions and provide customers and related parties (shareholders, employees, suppliers, society) products and services with brand influence, to become an enterprise with leading-edge quality and efficiency across agriculture, animal husbandry and food industries as well as a supplier of relevant services". The Company will proactively carry out all the work under overall strategies with unity and cohesion, so as to achieve the goals. 3. Increasingly matured and competitive integrated operation model Animal husbandry industry and feed industry are experiencing big transformations and changes, feed producers gradually withdraw the leadership in the industrial chain, whilst farms and large-scale integrated groups will take the dominated position in the future. On one hand, following the trends of markets and changes of customers, the Company has implemented significant measures to improve its feed market share and overall profitability, including constantly developing new products, adjusting marketing strategy and consolidating administrative departments. On the other hand, as early as 10 years ago, the Company had planned to move into integrated broiler business, nowadays this business has developed from small to large scale, from joint venture to individual sole proprietorship, from fragmented parts to closely connected integration, which make the Company have explored a relatively matured and competitive integrated operation model. Relatively complete integrated chain: The Company is responsible for breeding, feed R&D as well as production, providing instructions of environment and small climate in the 17 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report house, and monitoring all the processes relating to broiler raising. Meanwhile, the Company repurchases commercial broilers for its slaughterhouses and processes raw meat, prepared and cooked food, making all the processes of the integrated chain controllable. Modern model of self-owned farms together with large contract farms: The Company has changed its broiler raising model from “self-owned farms and family farms” to “self-owned farms together with large contact farms”, wining the priority by strategic layouts and judgments of the industry. Relying on the strength of R&D, the Company's feed conversion ratio ranks at the first class in the industry, whilst benefiting from high standard of farm building and application of three tiers cage system, the design of ventilation and environment control also reaches higher level, hence, the Company has realized efficiency and cost leadership supported by high-standard raising and fine management conducted in the slaughtering process. Fine management conducted in the integrated chain: Driven by the principle of saving energy, reducing emission, protecting environment and providing healthy products, the Company has established stringent production access standards for the integrated chain. And now, it is forging a data sharing and collaboration platform for green manufacturing of white feather broiler chain, aiming at consolidating logistics, information flow and capital flow. Meanwhile, the Company is committed to promoting the fine management in the integrated chain, also conducting strict benchmarking management and tracing feedback by monthly meeting, field inspection and big data sharing. Over ten years' dedicated researches and consecutive improvements enable the Company to achieve significant progress in the operation efficiency and cost control regarding broiler raising, feed production and slaughtering, etc., thus the competitive integrated operation model has become one of the core competitiveness of the Company. By summarizing and extracting the practices related to the chain, standards can be formed and will be easy to be copied and promoted elsewhere. Integrated operation shows a new development direction for enterprises in agriculture and animal husbandry industry, at present many of them are searching their own experiences in this field. Wellhope has operated broiler integration over ten years, rich operation practices and the management team composed of dedicated experts serves as the core competitiveness of integrated broiler business. 18 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report 4.

Other Disclosures Possible risks A. Risks of fluctuations in raw material prices Most costs of the feed business come from raw materials. The production changes in producing areas, import policies, storage and subsidies, exchange rate fluctuations, logistics costs and other factors may trigger fluctuations in the raw material market, which will affect the Company's feed business costs and gross profit margins. With deepened internationalization of the trade of agricultural products in recent years, the supply-demand relationship and trading price of raw materials have been affected by market conditions such as spot and futures at home and abroad, and the price trend has become more complex followed by increasingly fierce fluctuations, which further increases the difficulties of the Company’s cost management. In addition, the changes in China-US trade relations, international political and economic environment and other factors have also made the purchase price of raw materials more variable. Solutions: (a) The Company has established strategic partnerships with many top domestic and foreign raw material suppliers, and strategically reduced purchasing costs through three-level purchasing mode in terms of headquarters’ centralized purchasing, regions’ price compare purchasing and local departments’ purchasing of different varieties. (b) The Company combines its raw material trading business with purchasing management, i.e., the professional and practical raw materials’ purchasing team conducts targeted forward-looking researches and real-time tracking on the market, makes great efforts to reduce the purchasing price, such as uniformly managing different varieties, adopting spot purchasing and futures together. (c) The purchasing team works closely with the R&D team to complement each other's advantages, further optimize the purchasing cost by way of re-formulating the feeds i.e., changing the composition of the feed to use cheaper alternative raw materials while achieving the same results, which can further optimize purchasing costs. (d) The Company and Royal De Heus have set up an information sharing channel, which 37 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report makes the two sides can timely share the market trends, such as raw materials, additives, etc. In addition, the two sides may carry out joint purchasing cooperation in the future, which will greatly enhance the overall bargaining power. B. Risks of fluctuations in livestock and poultry prices Animal husbandry industry is a typical cyclical industry, and the hysteretic nature of the adjustment of supply causes the prices fluctuating periodically. At present, China's animal husbandry industry is still dominated by back yard farms and small-scale farms, these farm owners show the character of non-rational decision-making, especially an obvious “herd effect”, which further aggravates the cyclical fluctuations in the market price. Solutions: (a) The Company's integrated broiler business has established an industrial chain, which can make the price fluctuations of all businesses can be fully counteracted, and then reduce the risks of price fluctuations of the whole chain. (b) Since launching the integrated broiler business, the Company has always been committed to improving the production standards and management of each sector, reducing overall operating costs by optimizing the production and operation indicators and improving per capita efficiency. The advantage of its operating costs can mitigate the negative impacts on the Company when the industry is downward, and improve the overall profitability when the industry is booming. C. Risks of serious animal disease Feed and animal raising are the Company's two main businesses. Disease outbreak is one of the main risks faced by animal raising companies. Once a disease happens, it will cause panic in the market, which will reduce the demands, then lessen the production of the companies, decrease incomes and increase costs. Whilst, the feed industry mainly serves downstream animal raising industry, the downstream market will directly affect the performance of feed business. As an unpredictable emergency, an explosive disease will undoubtedly have a strong impact on the Company's operations. Solutions: (a) Rationally optimize the industrial distribution and structural layout, disperse possible 38 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report risks by the simplest and direct way. (b) Improve the prevention and control technology of major epidemics, complete the early warning system and strive to control epidemics effectively before spreading. (c) Set an emergency command system for major epidemics to minimize losses when they occur. (d) Strengthen analysis and research capabilities for major epidemics, enhance animal’s immunity from the perspective of animal nutrition and veterinary services. D. Risks of the industrial pattern adjustment caused by environmental protection policies China has put forward some environmental protection regulations in recent years, such as Environmental Protection Tax Law, etc., which show the government's determination to increase environmental protection supervision in animal husbandry industry, whilst the local governments have also issued certain new regulations. It can be seen that the continuously strengthening environmental protection is the trend of the industry also an unavoidable reality, which will further weed out unqualified players and make the industry facing the situation of re-shuffling. Solutions: During the start-up period, the Company had input "Save Resources, Committed to Environmental Protection" as part of its Vision. For more than 20 years, the Company has always taken saving resources and protecting the environment as its important missions. (a) Regarding to raising and slaughtering, in the face of increasingly strict environmental protection requirements, the Company have comprehensively identified environmental risk points, and formulated emergency plan for environmental emergencies so as to maintain the stable operation. For the key pollutant discharge plants, the Company has developed a complete self-monitoring program, which can find problems to repair, eliminate hidden dangers in a timely manner, it also continuously increases investment in environmental protection, such as personnel and funds, to ensure these plants always complying with national standards. (b) Regarding to feed production, the Company has always implemented national 39 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report environmental protection standards with the most rigorous attitude, established complete prevention and control measures for waste gas, noise, wastewater, solid waste and other pollution generated during the production process. It uses environmental-friendly raw materials and additives in feed formulations and also continuously develops safe and environment-friendly daily ration to reduce the emissions of heavy metals, nitrogen and phosphorus. E. Risks of exchange rate fluctuations The Company's international business started early and developed rapidly. The exchange rate fluctuations have released great influence on raw material purchasing, product export and overseas investment, presenting as follows: First, international development has made the global purchasing of raw materials becoming normally, therefore, the risks of exchange rate fluctuations are particularly evident in the raw materials which are based on oversea supply. Secondly, the Company’s export business of broiler products is growing rapidly with customers from many countries and regions around the world, and the exchange rate fluctuations are inevitably caused by the settlements of multiple currencies. Finally, due to the large overseas investment and overseas operations, the cross-border capital transactions and settlements will also be affected by exchange rate fluctuations. Solutions: (a) Closely focus and study on the dynamic international foreign exchange market, enhance the awareness of preventing foreign exchange risk, and improve the research and forecasting capabilities of the foreign exchange market. (b) Improve the bargaining power in foreign trade transaction by enhancing the competitiveness of products, and use RMB for settlement, reduce the exchange rate risks by adding insured value clause and the exchange rate risk allocation clause in the contract. (c) Make full use of foreign exchange forwards, swaps and options (combination) and other instruments to maintain the exchange rate for foreign exchange exposure. (d) According to specific conditions of different countries, based on the principle of "using foreign currencies in foreign trade", reasonably match the income and debts to control the exchange rate risks. 40 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report F. Risks of food safety In recent years, there have been some food safety incidents in China, which affected consumers' confidence in food safety. China has continuously improved the legislation on food safety and food sources, conducted forceful measures on handling food violations. Once the food safety incident is triggered by poor quality supervision, it will directly damage the interests of consumers and cause panic, which may greatly impact the downstream demand and affect the brand and performance of the enterprises. Solutions: (a) Regarding to feed business, the Company has established a three-level quality management mechanism and testing system which consists of headquarters, regions and local departments, adopted ISO 9001, ISO 22000, ISO-IEC 17025 and other international standards, thoroughly implemented a series of quality standards to realize the whole process control of the products and established the traceability system. The Company works hard to popularize near-infrared detection technology, improves detection efficiency and shares data in time. By doing this, it can quickly realize risk warning and monitor heavy metals, harmful microorganisms and mycotoxins, providing an important guarantee for the feed products. In addition, by drawing on the experiences of European antibiotic-free feed, and basing on current situation in China, the Company has realized some progresses in antibiotic alternatives, at present, the feed products for finisher, sow, layer at laying period, broiler, ruminant and aquatic can realize antibiotic-free technology. (b) Regarding to integrated broiler business, its industrial chain can fully control the forefront part of the supply of "material, medicine, day old chick" and production and sales process. Through unified operation model, standardized management and streamline operation, it can integrate bio-safety, drug residue control and hygiene management during the whole production processing to achieve food safety traceability. 41 / 78 Liaoning Wellhope Agri-Tech Joint Stock Co., Ltd. 2019 Semi-Annual Report Section V Important Disclosures I.
