Geographical advantage Luzhou City, where the Company is located, sits in the transitional area between the southern rim of the Sichuan Basin and the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, featuring a warmer and more humid sub-tropical climate compared to other areas at the same latitude, with a temperature above 0℃ throughout the year. The unique climate and soil are agreeable to grow grains for baijiu brewing. The glutinous red sorghum and soft wheat grown in this area are the primary raw materials for the baijiu of the Company. The cellars in which the Company brews its baijiu are made of the local loessal clay characterized by strong viscosity, rich minerals and excellent moisture retention. In addition, the abundant and quality water in the region creates a unique geographical advantage for the production of the Company’s baijiu. 16 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. B. Advantage of cellars and brewing technique Aged cellars are the most essential condition for a strong aromatic baijiu maker to produce good quality baijiu. The Cellars of National Treasure 1573, founded in 1573, was granted by the State Council as the first Cultural Relic of National Importance in the industry under the Protection of the State in December 1996. 1,619 cellars of Luzhou Laojiao which have been continuously used for over 100 years, together with its 16 ancient brewing workshops and three natural cellar holes, were all selected as the fourth batch of Cultural Relics of National Importance under the Protection of the State in 2013. They are unique resources that cannot be replicated. In both 2006 and 2012, Luzhou Laojiao Daqu Cellars were twice selected into the preliminary list of China for World Heritage. In November 2018, Luzhou Laojiao Cellars and Brewing Workshops were selected into China’s Industrial Heritage List. The time-honored Traditional Brewing Technique of Luzhou Laojiao is a 24-generation inheritance and a classic brewing technique for strong aromatic baijiu. This technique was selected as the first batch of National Intangible Cultural Heritage in May 2006. The Cellars of National Treasure 1573 and the Traditional Brewing Technique of Luzhou Laojiao together provide the most essential basis and assurance for the quality of the product series of National Cellar 1573 and Luzhou Laojiao. Additionally, Huangyi Brewery Eco-Park has moved into full production in late 2020. Upholding the cultural connotations of “inheritance of ancient ways, pure-grain brewing, traditional techniques, and intelligent technologies”, the Company carried out brewing technical renovation featuring automatic, intelligent and information technology-based transformation. As such, it has established a baijiu brewery eco-park comprising brewing workshops, leaven making workshops, and base baijiu storage cellars, along with energy and sewage treatment facilities. This brewery eco-park brings with it new production capacities of 100,000 tons of quality pure-grain solid baijiu and 100,000 tons of leaven in addition to a new storage capacity of 380,000 tons of baijiu per year, marking a substantial increase in the Company’s production capacity. C. Brand advantage Brand is a key business resource for baijiu producers. The Company’s reputation is greatly built on its superiority in brand. National Cellar 1573, which is of a connoisseurship level, is a world-famous high- end brand. Luzhou Laojiao Tequ, a classic brand for strong aromatic baijiu, was selected in 1952 by the first national tasting competition judges as one of the four most famous baijiu brands in China. It is the only strong aromatic baijiu brand that won the title of “National Famous Baijiu” for five consecutive times, as well as the pioneer with regard to the “Tequ” variety of baijiu. In recent years, the Company has successfully put in place a brand system of “dual brands, three product series, and major single products” with great clarity and focus. The programs carried out to promote the brand of National Cellar 1573 and revive the brand of Luzhou Laojiao have produced remarkable results, with significant improvement in brand influence. The Company’s baijiu is increasingly known by consumers as a national brand of strong aromatic baijiu and of authentic flavor. D. Quality and R&D advantage The Company is committed to producing high-quality baijiu, advocating a healthy lifestyle and “making the quality visible”. The first “Organic Sorghum Planting Base” was established and the six-factor management system (including organic, quality, safety, environment, measurement and energy) was built and improved. The research platforms are established, including National Engineering Research 17 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. Center of Solid-State Brewing, National Liquor Test Center, National Postdoctoral Workstation, etc, which all support the innovation and upgrading of products with their strong technical force. In recent years, the Company has put in a lot of efforts in researching Tequ production, brewing informatization & automation. Relying on the technological innovation platforms such as the National Industrial Design Center, and continuously deepening the cooperation with universities and scientific research institutes including the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Jiangnan University, the Company has undertaken dozens of national- or provincial-level projects and has been granted hundreds of invention or utility model patents. And remarkable results have been achieved with respect to improvement of the quality of base Baijiu, as well as production efficiency improvement. E. Talent advantage The Company has 1 inheritor of national intangible cultural heritage, 4 masters of Chinese brewing, 2 masters of Chinese baijiu, 2 Chinese liquor connoisseurs, 1 master of Chinese baijiu technique, 13 senior professor engineers, 8 experts who receive special allowances from the State Council, 4 national technicians, 2 national model workers, 4 national Labor Day Medal winners, 4 academic and technologic leaders of Sichuan province, 1 expert with outstanding contribution in Sichuan province, 1 innovation leader of Tianfu, 1 excellent engineer of Tianfu, 1 skills leader of Tianfu, 3 craftsmen of Tianfu, 5 craftsmen of Sichuan province, 1 technological elite of Tianfu, 2 young science and technology talents of Tianfu, 4 technicians of Sichuan province, as well as hundreds of highly skilled personnel including national baijiu judges, senior brewing technicians and brewing technicians.

The specific measures are as follows: A. Strengthening confidence in strategic planning and aiming at the Company's development goals The Company has formulated the "136" strategic plan for the 14th Five-Year Plan based on the development idea of "giving play to advantages, tackling areas of weaknesses, improving quality, building strength, and seeking rejuvenation". Specifically, "1" refers to one development goal, namely, firmly insisting on the goal of regaining the "Top 3" ranking among the Chinese baijiu industry; "3" refers to three major development principles, namely, insisting on brand leadership and fully enhancing the value of Chinese famous baijiu brands, insisting on taking quality as foundation and sparing no efforts to build a core production area of world famous baijiu, and insisting on take culture as the foundation and striving to build a pilgrimage site for Chinese baijiu culture; "6" refers to "Six-in-One" Luzhou Laojiao, namely, building a strong-brand Luzhou Laojiao, a quality Luzhou Laojiao, a cultural Luzhou Laojiao, an innovative Luzhou Laojiao, a digital and intelligent Luzhou Laojiao, and a harmonious Luzhou Laojiao. Since the 14th Five-Year Plan period, the Company has firmly implemented the "136" development strategy, won key battles such as expanding production capacity, upgrading brands, and strengthening teams, and has entered a stage of high-quality development. The National Cellar 1573 brand achieved comprehensive coverage in the domestic market and was fully expanding in overseas markets; the Luzhou Laojiao brand built a strong basis in the granary market, and has gained a stable and penetrating presence in the opportunity market, with much good news of the revival of famous baijiu; the breakthrough project of expanding key sales areas has been deeply promoted, market consumption has been further activated, and market share has been further increased. In terms of digital marketing and brand building, channel development and public relations empowerment, online expansion and offline integration, and overseas layout and domestic boosting, a clearer and more effective path has been created with the characteristics of Luzhou Laojiao, which has made contributions to the healthy and rapid development of the Company. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, the compound growth rate of the Company's net profit attributable to the parent company reached 30.17%, and in the first half of 2024, operating revenue amounted to CNY 16.905 billion, up 15.84% year on year; the net profit attributable to the parent company reached CNY 8.028 billion, up 13.22% year on year; and various performance indicators reached a new historical high. Moving forward, the Company will continue to implement the development theme of "proceeding with confidence, overcoming challenges, innovating, and collaborating", and strive for a comprehensive victory in the key battle of the 14th Five-Year Plan, with a focus on the overall working idea of "aiming at one objective, focusing on three cores, and promoting six improvements".

In the past five years, the total R&D investment reached CNY 659.97 million, and the compound annual growth rate of innovation R&D investment reached 24.69%. Third, the Company has actively carried out collaborative innovation between the Company, universities and research institutions, establishing cooperative relationships with more than 30 universities and institutions such as Tsinghua University and Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Through various forms including joint laboratory building, joint undertaking of major projects, joint training of talents, and establishment of open projects, the Company has carried out extensive technical exchange and cooperation, forming a good pattern of diversified cooperation, innovative development, and mutual benefit between universities and the Company. Fourth, the Company has attached great importance to the creation and protection of intellectual property rights, and regarded intellectual property building as an important development strategy for the Company. The number of applications and authorisations for invention and utility model patents has maintained a rapid growth.

In order to further improve the Company's risk management system and ensure that the directors, supervisors, and senior management of the Company fully perform their duties within their 34 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. scope of responsibilities, the Company has actively promoted the purchase of liability insurances for directors, supervisors, and senior management.

In the future, the Company will continue to promote information technology building to empower corporate governance, continuously improve operational efficiency and scientific decision-making level.

In the future, the Company will continuously improve the transparency of information disclosure and continuously display information on the Company's operations at multiple levels, angles, and dimensions. E. Efficiently carrying out investor relations activities and conveying the Company's investment value The Company has actively adapted to the needs of investor research and carried out investor relationship management through a combination of "inviting in" and "going out" models. It has actively communicated with investors on industry hot topics, the Company's business picture, and development strategies through the Shenzhen Stock Exchange investor interaction platform, establishment of investor hotlines, improvement of investor relationship websites, hosting online collective reception days, and on-site investor surveys. In doing so, the Company has conveyed its investment value and safeguarded investors' right to know. At the same time, the Company has adhered to investor demand orientation. Based on the continuous growth of overseas shareholders in recent years, the Company has innovatively used overseas accounts such as Facebook, twitter, and IG to simultaneously publish the Company's performance promotion, shortened the disclosure time interval between Chinese and English versions, and conducted overseas roadshows, to ensure the timeliness of information acquisition for overseas investors. The Company held an online presentation of the 2023 annual results on 9 May 2024. Mr. Liu Miao, chairman of the board, Mr. Liu Junhai, Mr. Chen You'an, Mr. Lyu Xianpei and Mr. Li Guowang, non-executive directors, Ms. Xie Hong, CFO, and Mr. Li Yong, deputy general manager and secretary of the board, attended the presentation and answered the questions of investors.

Improving shareholder returns and safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of shareholders The Company adheres to the implementation of an active profit distribution policy, attaches importance to reasonable returns to investors while considering the sustainable development of the Company, and maintains the continuity and stability of profit distribution.

This has allowed all shareholders to fully share the Company's development achievements and effectively maintained the Company's good image in the capital market. In the future, the Company will formulate reasonable profit distribution policies while ensuring normal operation and long-term development, and effectively allow investors to share the fruits of the Company's growth and development. G. Encouraging the controlling shareholder to actively increase its shareholdings to maintain the stability of the capital market Based on its recognition of the Company's long-term value and its firm belief in the Company's development prospects, the controlling shareholder of the Company, Luzhou Laojiao Group Co., Ltd., planned to increase its holdings in the Company through call auction trading within six months from 15 December 2023, with a proposed increase amount of no less than CNY 200 million, effectively maintaining the stability of the capital market and boosting investor confidence.

Other information about environment protection N/A 2. Social responsibility The Company deeply implemented General Secretary Xi Jinping's important discourse on coordinated regional development and fully executed the provincial government's development strategy of "synchronising new industrialisation, informatisation, urbanisation, and agricultural modernisation, along with urban-rural integration and the common prosperity of five zones". Following the principle of "what the locality needs is what the enterprise can provide”, it formulated and launched a series of targeted, beneficial, and forward-looking key projects in Hongyuan County and Gulin County, effectively advancing supportive assistance and rural revitalisation efforts. In the first half of the year, the Company invested a total of CNY 1.946 million. First, the Company leveraged its strengths to support characteristic industries. It distributed chicks to farmers, aiding the development of courtyard economies in Xiangtian Village, Gulin County. A 47 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. professional team was established to promote the construction of a demonstration base for industrial assistance in Dongxin Town, Gulin County, facilitating the upgrade and growth of the kiwifruit industry for sustained efficiency improvement. Second, capacity-building initiatives were carried out to cultivate talent for increasing income. The Company implemented the youth training programme in Hongyuan County, offering e-commerce training courses that align with modern trends. Several experts from Chengdu were engaged to provide training and practical exercises in areas such as industrial technology, animal husbandry, veterinarian services, rural water supply and e-commerce for entrepreneurial youth in Hongyuan County. By delivering technology and sharing experiences, the Company aimed to develop a team of industry leaders who are capable, committed, and rooted in the county. Third, consumption assistance was advanced to benefit local residents' income growth. The Company encouraged employees to participate in the "purchase instead of donation and creating wealth through sales" activity by buying local speciality agricultural products such as Hongyuan yak beef, yak milk powder, yak jerky, and Xiangtian Village highland rice. This effort has generated CNY 1.431 million in revenue for farmers, ensuring their ongoing and stable income growth. Fourth, infrastructure shortcomings were addressed to improve the living environment. The Company carried out a heating facility upgrade project to ensure safe heating security for 160 households in the winter, focusing on resolving community issues and improving county-level public services. Fifth, organisational collaboration was deepened to enhance the level of rural governance. The Company dispatched five middle management personnel and party members to villages for paired assistance, investing manpower and funds into rural governance. Activities such as moral awards and recognition of exemplary models were organised. Regular visits and support were conducted for households at risk of returning to poverty, households on the edge of poverty, and severely disadvantaged households. The Company also implemented the "I do practical things for the public" activity and addressed over 20 urgent problems for residents, including transportation, healthcare and employment, thereby advancing harmony and stability. Sixth, traditional culture was advocated to enhance spiritual civilisation construction. The Company supported the organisation of festival activities and implemented projects to promote traditional culture. It engaged thousands of community members in grand cultural festivals, preserving the community's spiritual essence and invigorating the vitality of excellent traditional local culture. In the second half of the year, the Company will execute more missions through more concrete measures. It will align its strengths with county-level urgent needs, striving to develop a series of projects that meet the requirements of the assisted areas while leveraging the Company's capabilities. These projects will be influential, exemplary, and capable of driving growth, transforming the unique resource endowments of the counties into significant momentum for regional revitalisation and income generation for the community, thus promoting high-quality economic and social development in Hongyuan County and Gulin County. 48 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd.

Disposal of subsidiaries by step If the Company loses control of a subsidiary is through multiple transactions by steps, the terms, conditions and economic impact of the disposal transaction shall be considered. When one or more of the following conditions may indicate that multiple transactions should be treated as a package of transactions for accounting treatment: a.These arrangements were entered into at the same time or in contemplation of each other; b.These arrangements work together to achieve an overall commercial effect; c.The occurrence of one arrangement depends on the occurrence of at least one other arrangement; 94 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. d.One arrangement alone is not economically justified, but it is economically justified when considered together with other arrangements If the transactions of the disposal of the equity investment of the subsidiary until the loss of control belong to a package transaction, the Company shall account for as a transaction; However, the difference between each disposal consideration received and the corresponding proportion of the subsidiary’s net assets before the loss of control shall be recognized as other comprehensive income in the consolidated financial statements and transferred into the profit and loss of the current period when the control is lost. If the transactions from the disposal of the equity investment of the subsidiary to the loss of control are not considered as a package transactions, the accounting treatment shall be conducted according to the relevant policies on the partial disposal of the equity investment of the subsidiary where control is retained before the loss of control. When the control is lost, the disposal shall be accounted for according to the general treatment. Purchase of non-controlling interests The difference between the increase in the cost of long-term equity investment result from acquisition of non-controlling shareholders and the share of net assets of the subsidiary calculated continuously from the acquisition date or combination date based on newly shareholding proportion shall be adjusted to equity (share) premium of capital reserves in the consolidated balance sheet. If the capital reserve is insufficient, any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings. Partial disposals of equity investment in subsidiaries without loss of control When the Company disposes of a portion of a long-term equity investment in a subsidiary without loss of control, the difference between disposal consideration and net assets of the subsidiary calculated continuously since the acquisition date or the combination date related to the disposal of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted to equity (share) premium of capital reserves in the consolidated balance sheet. If the capital reserve is insufficient, any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings. 5.8 Classification of joint venture arrangements and the accounting treatment method of common operation (1) Classification of joint venture arrangements A joint arrangement is classified as either a joint operation or a joint venture according to the structure, legal form, agreed terms and other facts and conditions of a joint arrangement. A joint arrangement that is structured through a separate vehicle is usually classified as a joint venture. However, when a joint 95 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. arrangement provides clear evidence that it meets any of the following requirements and complies with applicable laws and regulations as a joint operation: a. The legal form of the joint arrangement indicates that the parties that have joint control have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. b. The terms of the joint arrangement specify that the parties that have joint control have the rights to the assets, and the obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. c. Other facts and circumstances indicate that the parties that have joint control have rights to the assets, and the obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. The parties that have joint control have rights to substantially all of the output of the arrangement, and the arrangement depends on the parties that have joint control on a continuous basis for settling the liabilities of the arrangement. (2) Accounting by parties of a joint operator A joint operator shall recognize the following items in relation to its interest in a joint operation, and account for them in accordance with relevant accounting standards: a. Its solely-held assets, and its share of any assets held jointly; b. Its solely-assumed liabilities, and its share of any liabilities incurred jointly; c. Its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; d. Its share of the revenue from sale of the output by the joint operation; and e. Its solely-incurred expenses and its share of any expenses incurred jointly. The Company shall only recognize the portion of the profit and loss attributable to other participants in the joint venture, resulting from investment or sale of assets to the joint venture by the Company (excluding those assets constituting the business), prior to the sale of such assets to a third party. The Company shall fully recognize impairment loss when there is any impairment loss of invested or sold assets occurring in accordance with the ASBE No.8-Asset Impairment. The Company shall only recognize the part of the profit and loss attributable to other participants in the joint venture before selling the assets and other assets purchased from the joint venture (excluding those assets constituting the business) to a third party. When the impairment loss of the purchased assets is in accordance with the ASBE No.8-Asset Impairment, the Company shall recognize such losses according to its share. When the Company does not have common control over the joint venture, if the Company enjoys the assets related to the joint venture and assumes the liabilities related to the joint venture, the accounting treatment shall be conducted according to the above principles. Otherwise, the accounting treatment shall be conducted in accordance with the relevant accounting standards. 5.9 Cash and cash equivalents When preparing the cash flow statement, the Company recognizes cash on hand and deposits that can 96 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. be readily withdrawn on demand as cash. Cash equivalents are the Company’s short-term (due within 3 months from purchase date), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Restricted bank deposits are not recognized as cash and cash equivalents in the cash flow statement. 5.10 Foreign currency transactions and translation of foreign currency statements (1) Foreign currency transactions At the time of initial recognition of a foreign currency transaction of the Company, the amount in the foreign currency shall be translated into the amount in CNY currency at the spot exchange rate of the transaction date. For the monetary items of foreign currencies, the translation is done according to spot rate of the balance sheet date. The exchange difference generated from the difference of spot rate of the current balance sheet date and the time of initial recognition of a foreign currency or the previous balance sheet date is charged to the profit or loss of the current period except that the exchange difference generated from foreign currency borrowings relating to assets of which the acquisition or production satisfies the capitalization conditions is capitalized. Non-monetary items measured at fair value that is reflected in foreign currency at the end of the period, the Company shall firstly translate the foreign currency into the amount in functional currency at the spot exchange rate on the date when the fair value is determined, and then compare it with the original functional currency amount. Difference between the translated functional currency amount and the original functional currency amount is treated as profit or loss from changes in fair value (including changes in exchange rate) and is recognized in current profit and loss. If there is a non-monetary item of available-for-sale financial assets, the differences are recorded into other comprehensive income. (2) Translation of foreign currency statements Assets and liabilities in the balance sheets shall be translated at the spot exchange rates on balance sheet date. Shareholders’ equity items, except for the item of "undistributed profits", are translated at the spot exchange rates on the dates when the transactions occur. Revenue and expense items in the income statement are translated at the spot exchange rates on the dates when the transactions occur or at the exchange rate determined in a systematical and reasonable method and similar to the spot exchange rate on the day when the transactions occur. Differences arising from the above translations of foreign currency financial statements are separately listed under other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheet. If the overseas business is partly disposed of, the foreign currency financial statements exchange difference shall be calculated in proportion to the percentage of disposal and transferred to gain or loss on disposal for the current period. Foreign currency cash flow and cash flow of foreign subsidiaries shall be translated at approximate exchange rate of spot rate on the date of cash flow. 97 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. 5.11 Financial Instruments A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. When the Company becomes a party to a financial instrument contract, the related financial asset or financial liability should be recognized. (1) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial assets Based on the business model of financial asset management and the contract cash flow characteristics of financial assets, the Company classifies financial assets into: financial assets measured at amortized cost; financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into other comprehensive income; and financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses. At the initial recognition, financial assets are measured at fair value. For financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses, the expenses involved in the transaction are directly recorded into current profits/losses; for other financial liabilities, the expenses involved in the transaction are recorded into the initially recognized amount. 1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost The business model in which the Company manages financial assets measured at amortized cost aims to receive contract cash flow. Furthermore, the characteristics of the contract cash flow of such financial assets are consistent with basic borrowing and lending arrangements, which means that cash flow generated on a specific date serves only as payment for principal and interests based on the amount of unpaid principal. The Company adopts the effective interest method for such financial interests, performs subsequent measurement of them at amortized cost, and includes the gains or losses from derecognition, changes or impairment of them into current profits/losses. 2) Financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into other comprehensive income The business model in which the Company manages such financial assets both aims to receive contract cash flow and for the purpose of sale. Furthermore, the characteristics of the contract cash flow of such financial assets are consistent with basic borrowing and lending arrangements. The Company measure such financial assets at fair value and include their changes into other comprehensive income, but record impairment losses or gains, exchange gains or losses and interest income calculated in the effective interest method into current profits/losses. At the initial recognition, the Company may specify non-trading equity instrument investment as a financial asset measured at fair value with its changes included into other comprehensive income and should recognize the dividend income according to regulations; the specification is irrevocable once 98 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. made. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gains or losses previously included into other comprehensive income should be transferred into retained earnings. 3) Financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses For financial assets other than the above financial assets measured at amortized cost and financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into other comprehensive income, the Company classifies them as financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses. In addition, at the initial recognition, the Company specifies partial financial assets as financial assets measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses, in order to eliminate or substantially reduce accounting mismatch. For such financial assets, the Company performs subsequent measurement using fair value and records changes in the fair value into current profits/losses. (2) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities At their initial recognition, financial liabilities are divided into financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses and other financial liabilities. For financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses, the expenses involved in the transaction are directly recorded into the current profits/losses. For other financial liabilities, the expenses involved in the transaction are recorded into the initially recognized value. 1) Financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses Financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses include trading financial liabilities (including derivatives classified as financial liabilities) and the financial liabilities specified to be measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses at the initial recognition. Trading financial liabilities (including derivatives classified as financial liabilities) are subsequently measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded into current profits/losses, except for those related to hedge accounting. For those specified as financial liabilities measured at fair value with their changes included into current profits/losses, changes in the fair value of such liabilities caused by changes in the Company’s own credit risk should be included into other comprehensive income. In derecognition of such liabilities, cumulative changes in their value caused by the Company’s own credit risk that have been recorded into other comprehensive income should be transferred into retained earnings. Other changes in their fair value should be recorded into current profits/losses. If treatment of the impact of the Company’s own credit risk changes of such financial liabilities in the above manner causes or expands accounting 99 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. mismatch in profits/losses, the Company will include all gains or losses of such financial liabilities (including the amount of the impact of the Company’s own credit risk changes) into current profits/losses. 2) Other financial liabilities Financial liabilities other than those formed from the transfer of financial assets not meeting derecognition conditions or continuous involvement into transferred financial assets and those outside financial guarantee contracts are classified as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. Such financial liabilities should be subsequently measured at amortized cost and the gains or losses from derecognition or amortization should be included into current profits/losses. (3) Recognition basis and measurement method of transfer of financial assets If a financial asset meets any of the following conditions, it shall be derecognized: 1)The contractual right for collecting the cash flow of the financial asset has been terminated; 2)The financial asset has been transferred and almost all the risks and remunerations in respect of the ownership of the financial asset has been transferred to the transferee; 3)The financial asset has been transferred, and although the enterprise neither transfers nor retains almost all the risks and remunerations in respect of the ownership of the financial asset, it has abandoned its control over the asset. If the enterprise neither transfers nor retains almost all the risks and remunerations in respect of the ownership of the financial asset and does not abandon its control over the asset, the involved financial asset shall be recognized according to the level of continuous involvement of the transferred financial asset and the relevant liabilities shall be recognized accordingly. The level of continuous involvement of the transferred financial asset refers to the level of risk faced by the enterprise due to changes in the value of the financial asset. If the overall transfer of the financial asset meets the recognition conditions, the difference between the carrying value of the transferred financial asset as well as the consideration received from the transfer and the cumulative amount of fair value changes originally-recorded into other comprehensive incomes shall be recorded into the current profits/losses. If partial transfer of the financial asset meets the recognition conditions, the carrying value of the transferred financial asset shall be apportioned at the relative fair value between the derecognition and underecognition part. The difference between the summation of the consideration received from the transfer and the cumulative amount of fair value changes originally-recorded into other comprehensive incomes that should be apportioned to the derecognition part and the apportioned aforementioned carrying value shall be recorded into the current profits/losses. 100 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. For a financial asset sold with the right of recourse or with the transfer of the financial asset endorsement, the Company shall decide whether almost all the risks and remunerations in respect of the ownership of the financial asset should be transferred. If they are transferred, the financial asset shall be derecognized; if they are retained, the financial asset shall not be derecognized; if they are neither transferred nor retained, the Company will continue to decide whether the enterprise should retain control over the asset and perform the accounting treatment according to the principles stated in previous paragraphs. (4) Derecognition of financial liabilities When the current obligation of a financial liability (or a part of it) is relieved, the Company will derecognize the financial liability (or the part of it). When the Company (borrower) signs an agreement with a lender to replace an original financial liability in the form of bearing a new financial liability and the contract terms for the new financial liability differ from those for the original in substance, the original financial liability should be derecognized and the new one should be recognized. When the Company makes substantial changes to the contract terms of an original financial liability (or a part of it), the original financial liability should be derecognized and a new financial liability should be recognized according to the amended contract terms. When a financial liability (or a part of it) is derecognized, the Company will include the difference between its carrying value and the consideration paid (including non-cash assets or liabilities borne that are transferred out) into current profits/losses. (5) Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities When the Company has the legal right to offset recognized financial assets and financial liabilities and may execute the legal right currently and simultaneously, the Company plans to settle or simultaneously encash the financial assets in net amounts and pay off the financial liabilities, the financial assets and the financial liabilities which are presented in the net amount after the mutual offset in the balance sheet. Other than that, they shall be presented separately in the balance sheet without the mutual offset. (6) Method of determining the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities Fair value refers to the price that a market participant can receive for selling an asset or transferring a liability in an orderly transaction on the measurement date. For an existing financial instrument in an active market, the Company adopts the quotations in the active market to determine its fair value. Quotations in the active market refer to prices that can be easily obtained from exchanges, brokers, industrial associations and pricing service institutions and represent the actual prices in the market 101 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. transactions happening in a fair trade. For a non-existing financial instrument in an active market, the Company adopts the valuation technique to determine its fair value. The valuation technique includes references to familiar situations and the prices used by the parties voluntarily participating in the recent market transactions, as well as references to the present fair value of other financial instruments of the same nature, discounted cash flow method and options pricing model. In the valuation, the Company uses a valuation technique that is applicable in the current situation with sufficient data available and other information support, chooses input values that are consistent with the asset or liability characteristics considered by market players in related asset or liability transactions, and make maximum effort to use related observable input values on a preferential basis. When it is unable or unfeasible to obtain related observable input values, unobservable will be used. (7) Equity instruments Equity instruments refer to the contracts that can prove the Company’s residual equity of assets after the deduction of all liabilities. The Company’s issuance (including refinancing), repurchase, sale or cancellation of equity instruments serve as the change treatment of equity. Transaction expenses related to the equity transactions are deducted from the equity. The Company does not recognize changes in the fair value of equity instruments. Dividends from the Company’s equity instruments distributed during the validity (including the “interests” from instruments classified as equity instruments) are treated as profit distribution. (8) Impairment of financial instruments Based on the expected credit loss, the Company treats financial assets measured at amortized cost and debt instrument investment measured at fair value with its changes included into other comprehensive income by impairment and recognizes the provision for loss. Credit loss means the difference between all contract cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate to be received according to contracts and all contract cash flow expected to be received, namely, the present value of all cash shortage. For a financial asset with credit impairment purchased by or originated from the Company, it should be discounted by the effective interest rate after credit adjustment to the financial asset. For accounts receivable that do not contain significant financing components, the Company adopts simplified measurement to measure loss provisions according to the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss for the entire duration. For a financial asset other than those using the above simplified measurement, the Company assesses 102 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. on each balance sheet date whether its credit risk has substantially increased since the initial recognition. If it has not and is in the first stage, the Company will measure the loss provision at the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss for the next 12 months and calculate the interest income according to the book balance and the effective interest rate; if it has substantially increased since the initial recognition without credit impairment and is in the second stage, the Company will measure the loss provision at the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss for the entire duration and calculate the interest income according to the book balance and the effective interest rate; if credit impairment has occurred since the initial recognition and is in the third stage, the Company will measure the loss provision by the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss for the entire duration and calculate the interest income according to the amortization cost and the effective interest rate. For financial instruments with low credit risks on balance sheet dates, the Company assumes that their credit risks have not substantially increased since the initial recognition. The Company assesses expected credit losses of financial instruments based on individual and group assessment. The Company considers the credit risk characteristics of different customers and assesses the expected credit losses of accounts receivable and other receivables based on account age portfolio. When assessing expected credit losses, the Company considers reasonable and well- founded information on past matters, present conditions and forecast of future economic conditions. When it no longer reasonably expects to recover all or part of the contract cash flow of financial assets, the Company will directly write down the book balance of such financial assets. 5.12 Notes receivable The types of portfolios for which bad debt provisions are made according to the portfolios of credit risk characteristics and the basis for determining them: Divide notes receivables into various portfolios according to common risk characteristics based on the credit risk characteristics of acceptors and determine the accounting estimate policies of expected credit loss: Portfolio name Provision method Bank acceptance bill The management evaluates that this type has low credit risk and its fixed bad portfolio debt provision ratio is 0%. Trade acceptance The provision for impairment is made according to the expected loss rate with portfolio the same portfolio classification of accounts receivables 5.13 Accounts receivables The types of portfolios for which bad debt provisions are made according to the portfolios of credit risk characteristics and the basis for determining them: As for accounts receivables, regardless of whether there is a significant financing component, the 103 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. Company always measures the provision for loss based on the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss over the entire life, and the resulting increase or reversal of provision for loss shall be included in the current profit or loss as gains or losses on impairment. The accrual method is as follows: (1) When there is objective evidence showing that an account receivable has incurred credit impairment, the Company shall make bad debt provision for the account receivable and recognize the expected credit loss. (2) When the information about the expected credit loss of a single financial asset cannot be evaluated at a reasonable cost, the Company shall divide the accounts receivables portfolio according to credit risk characteristics and measure the expected credit loss based on portfolios: Portfolio name Provision method Risk portfolio Expected credit loss Other portfolio No bad debt provision Other portfolio refers to the normal intercourse funds among the Company and businesses within the scope of consolidation, the recovery of which are controllable with no risks. Thus, no bad debt provision was made. The aging calculation method of credit risk characteristic portfolio based on aging: The Company combines the accounts receivables classified as risk portfolio in accordance with similar credit risk characteristics (aging), and calculates the expected credit loss through the exposure at default and expected credit loss rate over the entire life based on the current situation and prediction of future economic situation consulting historical credit loss experience. The comparative table of the credit loss rate is as follows: Aging Expected loss provision rate % Within 1 year 5 1-2 years 10 2-3 years 20 3-4 years 40 4-5 years 80 Over 5 years 100 The ageing of accounts receivable is calculated from the month in which the amounts are actually incurred. 5.14 Accounts receivables financing The accounts receivables financing of the Company refer to the notes receivables measured at fair value through other comprehensive income on the balance sheet date. For more details, see Note 5.11 Financial instruments. 5.15 Other receivables Methods of determination and accounting treatment for expected credit losses of other receivables 104 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. The types of portfolios for which bad debt provisions are made according to the portfolios of credit risk characteristics and the basis for determining them: As for other receivables, regardless of whether there is a significant financing component, the Company always calculates the expected credit loss through the exposure at default and expected credit loss rate in the next 12 months or over the entire life based on the current situation and prediction of future economic situation consulting historical credit loss experience, and the resulting increase or reversal of provision for loss shall be included in the current profit or loss as gains or losses on impairment. The accrual method is as follows: (1) When there is objective evidence showing that the other receivable has incurred credit impairment, the Company shall make bad debt provision for the other receivable and recognize the expected credit loss. (2) When the information about the expected credit loss of a single financial asset cannot be evaluated at a reasonable cost, the Company shall divide the other receivables portfolio according to credit risk characteristics and measure the expected credit loss based on portfolios. Portfolio name Provision method Risk portfolio Expected credit loss Other portfolio No bad debt provision Other portfolio refers to the normal intercourse funds among the Company and businesses within the scope of consolidation, the recovery of which are controllable with no risks. Thus, no bad debt provision was made. The aging calculation method of credit risk characteristic portfolio based on aging: The Company combines the other receivables classified as risk portfolio in accordance with similar credit risk characteristics (aging), and calculates the expected credit loss through the exposure at default and expected credit loss rate in the next 12 months or over the entire life based on the current situation and prediction of future economic situation consulting historical credit loss experience. The comparative table of the credit loss rate is as follows: Aging Expected loss provision rate % Within 1 year 5 1-2 years 10 2-3 years 20 3-4 years 40 4-5 years 80 Over 5 years 100 The ageing of other receivables is calculated from the month in which the amounts are actually incurred. 5.16 Contract assets The Company presents contract assets or contract liabilities on the balance sheet according to the 105 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. relationship between the fulfillment of its contract performance obligations and its customers’ payment. Considerations that the Company has the right to collect for commodities transferred or services provided to customers (and such right depends on other factors than time lapses) are presented as contract assets. The Company presents the right possessed to collect consideration from customers unconditionally (only depending on the passing of time) as accounts receivable. Refer to “The method of determining the expected credit loss of accounts receivables and accounting treatment method” for the detail on the Company’s method of determining the expected credit loss of contract assets and accounting treatment method. 5.17 Inventory (1) Classification of inventory Inventories are classified as: raw materials, goods in progress (including semi-finished goods), stock commodities, and dispatched inventories. (2) Measurement method of acquiring and dispatching inventories The standard cost is used for daily accounting of raw materials, and the difference of material cost should be carried forward on a monthly basis to adjust the standard cost into the actual cost; The goods in progress (including semi-finished goods) shall be accounted according to the actual cost, and the weighted average method shall be used when they are received and delivered. The actual cost of the inventory at the end of the month above shall be taken as the standard cost, and the delivery shall be priced according to the standard cost. At the end of the month, the standard cost of the inventory at the end of the month shall be adjusted into the actual cost through the cost-sharing difference. (3) Determining criteria and method of provision for stock obsolescence At the end of the period, inventory is measured according to the lower of cost and net realizable value. The difference between inventory cost and net realizable value is higher than the provision for stock obsolescence, which is recorded into current profit and loss. For inventories that are related to product ranges produced and sold in the same district or used for the same or similar ultimate purpose and are difficult to be measured separately from other inventories, the Company provides for stock obsolescence as a whole. For inventories that have large quantities but low value, the Company provides for stock obsolescence on a category basis. The materials held for production shall be measured at cost if the net realizable value of the finished products is higher than the cost. If a decline in the value of materials shows that the net realizable value of the finished products is lower than the cost, the materials shall be measured at the net realizable value. 106 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. (4) Inventory system The Company adopts perpetual inventory system. (5) Amortization method of packing materials and low-cost consumables It is amortized in full at once. 5.18 Assets held for sale (1) Determining criteria for non-current assets held for sale or disposal groups The Company shall classify the non-current assets or disposal group meeting the following conditions into the held-for-sale category: The assets (or disposal group) must be available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets (or disposal groups); Its sale must be highly probable.; The Company has already made a decision to dispose the component and has a commitment from the purchaser, the transfer will be completed within one year. The non-current assets or disposal group acquired by the Company for resale shall be divided into the held-for-sale category on the acquisition date if it meets the condition that "the sale is expected to be completed within one year" and if it is likely to meet other conditions for the held-for-sale category within a short period (usually three months). Due to one of the following reasons that the Company is unable to control, leading to the transactions uncompleted with non-related party within one year, and the Company still commits to sale non-current assets or disposal groups, it can continue to account for non-current assets or disposal groups as held- for-sale: the buyer or any other party accidentally set sale extension condition. The Company has to take action in time according to these conditions and the extension problem is expected to be solved within one year; In rare cases, the Company has taken the necessary steps and re-satisfy the hold for sale category condition within the first year for the new circumstances which caused it unable to complete the sale of the non-current assets or disposal group within one year. (2) Accounting treatment of non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale a. Initial measurement and subsequent measurement When the Company measure a non-current asset or disposal group held for sale initially or re-measure at balance sheet date subsequently, the impairment loss should be recognized if the book value is higher than fair value less costs to sell at the amount of the difference of these two in profit and loss, the provision for assets held for sale need to be recognized at the same time. 107 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. For the non-current assets or disposal groups divided into held-for-sale category on the acquisition date, they shall be measured as the lower of the initial measurement amount and the net amount after deducting the selling expenses from the fair value under the assumption that it is not divided into held- for-sale categories at the initial measurement. Except for the non-current assets or the disposal groups obtained in the enterprise merger, the difference caused by the non-current assets or the disposal groups taking the net amount after the fair value minus the selling expenses as the initial measurement amount shall be recorded into the current profit and loss. For the impairment of disposal group, it should write off goodwill if existing, and then write down the related assets proportionally. Depreciation or amortization should cease for the non-current asset held for sale. Interest and other charges on liabilities in the disposal groups held for sale continue to be recognized. b. Accounting treatment of reversal of impairment loss If the net amount of the non-current assets held for sale on the subsequent balance sheet date increases after the fair value minus the selling expenses, the amount previously written down shall be reversed, and the amount of the impairment loss recognized after being classified as the held-for-sale shall be reversed, and the reversed amount shall be included in the current profit and loss. The impairment loss recognized before the classification of the held-for-sale shall not be reversed. If the net amount of the disposal groups held for sale on the subsequent balance sheet date increases after the fair value deducting the selling expenses, the amount previously written down shall be reversed, and the amount of the impairment loss recognized as non-current assets after being classified as the held-for-sale shall be reversed, and the reversed amount shall be included in the current profit and loss. The book value of the goodwill that has been written down and the impairment losses recognized before the classification of the held-for-sale shall not be reversed. The subsequent reversed amount of the impairment loss recognized by the disposal groups held for sale shall be increased in proportion to the book value of non-current assets except goodwill in the disposal groups. c. Recognition criteria and presentation of discontinued operations Non-current assets or disposal groups that are no longer divided into held-for-sale category or non- current assets are removed from disposal groups held for sale because of no longer meeting the condition of classification of held-for-sale, they are measured at lower of the following two: book value 108 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. before being classified as the held-for-sale considering depreciation, amortization or impairment that should have been recognized under the assumption that it is not divided into held-for-sale categories; and recoverable amount. When terminating the recognition of the non-current assets held for sale or the disposal groups, the unrecognized gains or losses shall be recorded into the current profit and loss. 5.19. Investments in debt obligations N/A 5.20 Investments in other debt obligations N/A 5.21 Long-term receivables For more details, see Note 5.11 Financial instruments. 5.22 Long-term equity investment (1) Judgment criteria of common control and significant influence Common control on an agreement with other participants refers to the Company share control with other participants on an arrangement according to relevant conventions, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. This arrangement belongs to joint venture. Where the joint venture arrangement is made by a separate entity and the Company is judged to have rights to the net assets of such a separate entity according to the relevant conventions. Such a separate entity shall be regarded as a joint venture and accounted by the equity method. If the Company is judged to be not entitled to the net assets of the separate entity according to relevant conventions, the separate entity shall be regarded as a joint venture and the Company shall recognize the items related to the shares of the joint venture and perform accounting treatment in accordance with relevant accounting standards. The term ‘significant influence’ refers to the power to participate in decision-making on the financial and operating policies of the investee, but with no control or joint control over the formulation of these policies. The Company judges that it has a significant impact on the invested entity through one or more of the following situations and taking all the facts and circumstances into consideration: a. Dispatch representatives to the board of directors or similar authorities of the investee. b. To participate in the financial and business policy making process of the investee. c. Significant transactions with the investee. d. Dispatch management personnel to the investee. 109 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. e. To provide key technical data to the investee. (2) Determination of the initial investment cost a. Long-term equity investment resulting from combination Business combination under common control: For the long-term equity investments obtained by cash paid, non-monetary assets paid or assumed liabilities and the equity securities issued by the acquirer, on the merger date, the initial investment cost of long-term equity investment shall be taken as the share of the owner's equity of the investee in the book value of the final control party's consolidated financial statements. If the investee under business combination under common control can be controlled due to additional investment or other reasons, the initial investment cost of long-term equity investment shall be determined on the merger date according to the share of the net assets of the investee in the book value of the final control party's consolidated financial statements. The difference between the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment on the merger date and sum of the book value of the long-term equity investment before the merger and the new consideration of acquiring shares on the merger date shall be recorded to adjust the equity premium. If the equity premium is insufficient to be written down, the retained earnings shall be written down. Business combination not under common control:The Company takes the initial investment cost of long-term equity investment as the merger cost determined on the purchase date. If the investee can be controlled under business combination not under common control due to additional investment or other reasons, the previous book value of the equity investment held plus the sum of the newly added investment cost shall be taken as the initial investment cost calculated according to the cost method. b. Long-term equity investment obtained by other means For the long-term equity investments obtained by cash paid, the Company recognizes their fair value as the initial investment costs. For the long-term equity investments acquired by the issue of equity securities, the initial investment cost shall be the fair value of the equity securities issued. For long-term equity investments obtained by non-monetary assets exchange, under the condition that an exchange of non-monetary assets is of commerce nature and the fair value of assets exchanged can be reliably measured, non-monetary assets traded in is initially stated at the fair value of the assets traded out, unless there is conclusive evidence indicating that the fair value of the assets traded in is more reliable; if the above conditions are not satisfied, initial investment costs of long-term equity investments traded in shall be recognized at the book value of the assets traded out and the relevant 110 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. taxes and surcharges payable. For long-term equity investments obtained by debt restructuring, the Company recognizes the fair value of shares of debt-for-equity swap as the initial investment costs. (3) Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit and loss a. Long-term equity investments measured under the cost method Long-term equity investments that can control the investee are measured under the cost method. For long-term equity investments accounted at the cost method, except cash dividends or profits declared but not yet distributed which are included in the actual payments or the consideration actually paid for the investment, the cash dividends or profits declared by the investee shall be recognized as the investment income irrespective of net profits realized by the investee before investment or after investment. b. Long-term equity investments measured under the equity method For the long-term equity investment which has joint control or significant influence over the investee, the equity method is adopted for accounting. For long-term equity investments measured at the equity method, if the initial investment costs are higher than the investor’s attributable share of the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets, no adjustment will be made to the initial costs of the long-term equity investments; if the initial investment costs are lower than the investor’s attributable share of the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets, the difference shall be recognized in current profit and loss. The Company shall, according to the shares of net profits and other comprehensive income realized by the investee that shall be enjoyed or borne by the Company, recognize the profit and loss on the investments and adjust the book value of the long-term equity investments. When recognizing the net profits and losses and other comprehensive income of the investee that the Company shall enjoy or bear, the Company shall make a recognition and calculation based on the net book profits and losses of the investee after appropriate adjustments. However, where the Company is unable to obtain the relevant information due to failure to reasonably determine the fair value of the investee’s identifiable assets, minor difference between the investee’s identifiable assets and the book value thereof or other reasons, the profits or losses on the investments shall be directly calculated and recognized based on the net book profits and losses of the investee. The Company shall calculate the part distributed from cash dividends or profits declared by the investee and correspondingly reduce the book value of the long-term equity investments. When recognizing the income from investments in associates and joint ventures, the Company shall write off the part of incomes from internal unrealized transactions between the Company and associates and joint ventures which are attributable to the Company and recognize 111 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. the profit and loss on investments on such basis. Where the losses on internal transactions between the Company and the investee are impairment of related assets, full amounts of such losses shall be recognized. Profit and loss from internal unrealized transactions between the Company’s subsidiaries included into the combination scope and associates and joint ventures shall be written off according to the above principles and the profit and loss on investments thereafter shall be recognized on such basis. When the share of net loss of the investee attributable to the Company is recognized, it is treated in the following sequence: Firstly, write off the book value of the long-term equity investments; where the book value of the long-term equity investments is insufficient to cover the loss, investment losses are recognized to the extent that book value of long-term equity which form net investment in the investee in other substances and the book value of long-term receivables shall be written off; after all the above treatments, if the Company still assumes additional obligation according to investment contracts or agreements, the obligation expected to be assumed should be recognized as provision and included into the investment loss in the current period. If the investee is profitable in subsequent accounting periods, the Company shall treat the loss in reverse order against that described above after deducting unrecognized share of loss: i.e. write down the book value of the recognized provision, then restore the book value of long-term interests which substantially form net investments in the investee, then restore the book value of long-term investments, and recognize investment income at the same time. 5.23 Investment property Measurement model of investment property Cost model Method of depreciation or amortization Investment property is the property that is held to earn rent or capital appreciation or both and can be measured and sold separately. The Company’s investment property includes land use right already rent, land use right held for appreciation and then sold, and buildings already rent. (1) Initial Recognition When the Company can obtain the rental income or value-added income related to the investment property and the cost of the investment property that can be measured reliably, the Company will initially measure it according to the actual expenditure of purchase or construction: The cost of the purchased investment property includes the purchase price and related taxes directly attributable to the asset; The cost of self-built investment property consists of the necessary expenses incurred before the asset reaches the intended use condition; The cost of the investment property obtained by other means shall be recognized in accordance with relevant accounting standards. 112 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. (2) Subsequent measurement In general, the Company adopts the cost model to measure the follow-up expenditure of investment property. The depreciation or amortization of investment property shall be carried out in accordance with the accounting policies for the Company's fixed assets or intangible assets. If there is solid evidence suggests that the investment property acquired can be measured at fair value continuously and reliably, the Company can use fair value model for subsequent measurement. For the investment property measured at fair value model, the Company does not provide depreciation or amortization and adjusts its book value based on the fair value of investment property at the balance sheet date. The difference between the fair value and book value is recorded into current profit or loss. (3) When the Company changes the use of investment property, the relevant investment property will be transferred to other assets. 5.24. Fixed assets (1) Recognition of fixed assets Fixed assets refer to tangible assets held for the purpose of producing commodities, providing services, renting or business management with useful life exceeding one accounting year. Fixed assets are recognized when the following criteria are satisfied simultaneously: It is probable that the economic benefits relating to the fixed assets will flow into the Company; the cost of the fixed assets can be measured reliably. (2) Depreciation of fixed assets Estimated Annual Depreciation Estimated useful Category residual value depreciation rate method life (Year) rate (%) (%) Buildings and Straight-line Constructions 10-45 5% 9.50-2.11 method Special Straight-line 5-35 5% 19.00-2.71 equipment method Universal Straight-line 4-25 5% 23.75-3.80 equipment method Transportation Straight-line equipment 6 5% 15.83 method Straight-line Other equipment method 4-16 5% 23.75-5.94 113 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. Except for fixed assets still in use after full depreciation, the Company depreciates all fixed assets and calculates the depreciation in the straight-line depreciation method. Based on the nature and use of fixed assets, the Company determines their service life and estimated net salvage value and reviews their service life, estimated net salvage value and depreciation method at the end of the year. Changes in the service life, estimated net salvage value and depreciation method of the same type of assets are treated as changes in accounting estimation. (3) Impairment test method and impairment provision accrued method of fixed assets At the end of the period, the fixed assets shall be measured at the lower of the book value and the recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount of fixed assets is lower than the book value due to a continuous decline in the market value, or technological obsolescence, damage, or long-term idleness, a provision for impairment of the fixed assets shall be made for the difference between the recoverable amount and the book value of individual fixed assets. If the recoverable amount of the individual asset is difficult to estimate, the Company will determine the recoverable amount of the asset group based on the asset group to which the asset belongs. The impairment losses on fixed assets must not be reversed in subsequent accounting periods once recognized. For fixed assets for which depreciation provision has been made, the depreciation rate and depreciation amount shall be remeasured according to the book value of the fixed assets (the original price of fixed assets minus accumulated depreciation and provision for impairment), and the remaining service life. On the balance sheet date, the fixed assets shall be measured at the lower of the book value and the recoverable amount. 5. 25. Construction in progress (1) Construction in progress refers to various construction and installation works carried out for the construction or repair of fixed assets, including the actual expenditure incurred in new construction, reconstruction and expansion, and the net value of fixed assets transferred from the reconstruction and expansion projects. (2) Construction in progress is accounted on an individual project basis with actual cost valuation method. The borrowing costs incurred before the projects reach the intended use condition shall be included in the project cost. The fixed assets shall be carried forward in the month when the project is qualified for acceptance and delivery for use. For those that have reached the intended use condition but have not yet completed the final account, from the date of reaching the intended use condition, according to the project budget, construction cost or the actual cost of the project, the cost transferred to the fixed assets shall be determined according to the estimated value, and the depreciation shall be recognized; After the completion of the final account, the original provisional value shall be adjusted 114 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. according to the actual cost, but the amount of depreciation accrued shall not be adjusted. (3) The loan interest and related expenses incurred during the construction period shall be capitalized into the cost of the construction in Progress. (4) On the balance sheet date, the construction in progress is recognized at the lower of book value and recoverable amount. 5. 26. Borrowing costs (1) Scope of borrowing costs and its capitalization conditions The Company’s borrowing costs capitalized during period of capitalization are relevant loan expenses directly attributable to the assets eligible for capitalization, including interest thereon, amortization of discounts or premiums, ancillary expenses and exchange differences incurred from foreign currency loan, etc. Borrowing costs are capitalized when the following three conditions are met simultaneously: ① the asset expenditure has occurred, ② the borrowing costs have occurred, ③ the purchase and construction activities necessary to make the assets reach the intended use condition have started. (2) Recognition of capitalized amounts The capitalized amount of borrowing expenses is calculated as follows: As for special loan borrowed for acquiring and constructing or producing assets eligible for capitalization, borrowing costs of special loan actually incurred in the current period less the interest income of the loans unused and deposited in bank or return on temporary investment should be recognized as the capitalization amount of borrowing costs. As for general loans used for acquiring and constructing or producing assets eligible for capitalization, the interest of general loans to be capitalized should be calculated by multiplying the weighted average of asset disbursements of the part of accumulated asset disbursements in excess of special loans by the capitalization rate of used general loans. During the period of capitalization, the capitalized amount of interest of each accounting period shall not exceed the current actual interest of the relevant loans. Where there are discounts or premiums on loans, the amounts of interest for each accounting period should be adjusted taking account of amortizable discount or premium amounts for the period by effective interest method. Auxiliary expenses incurred from special loans before the acquired or constructed assets eligible for capitalization reach the working condition for their intended use or sale should be capitalized when they incur and charged to the costs of assets eligible for capitalization; those incurred after the acquired or constructed assets eligible for capitalization reach the working condition for their intended use or sale should be recognized as costs according to the amounts incurred when they incur and charged to the current profit or loss. (3) Recognition of capitalization rate For a special loan for the purchase and construction of fixed assets, the capitalization rate is the 115 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. interest rate of the loan; For more than one special loan for the acquisition and construction of fixed assets, the capitalization rate is a weighted average interest rate of these loans. (4) Capitalization suspension of borrowing costs If the acquisition and construction or production activities of assets eligible for capitalization are interrupted abnormally and this condition lasts for more than three months, the capitalization of borrowing costs should be suspended. The borrowing costs incurred during interruption are charged to profit or loss for the current period, and the capitalization of borrowing costs continues when the acquisition and construction or production activities of the asset resume. (5) Capitalization cessation of borrowing costs Capitalization of borrowing costs should cease when the acquired and constructed or produced assets eligible for capitalization have reached the working condition for their intended use or sale. Borrowing costs incurred after the assets eligible for capitalization have reached the working condition for their intended use or sale should be recognized as the current profit and loss when they incur. If parts of the acquired and constructed or produced assets are completed separately but the assets cannot be used or sold externally until overall completion, the capitalization of borrowing costs should cease at the time of overall completion of the said assets. 5.27. Biological assets N/A 5.28. Oil and gas assets N/A 5. 29. Intangible assets (1) Useful life and the basis for its determination, estimation, amortization methodology or review procedures Intangible assets refer to identifiable non-monetary assets that are owned or controlled by the Company without a physical form. Measurement method a. Costs of intangible assets purchased include purchase price, related tax and expenses and other expenditure that can be distributed to the asset directly to reach its expected use. b. Intangible assets invested by investors shall be valued at the value agreed upon in the investment 116 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. contract or agreement; c. Expenses on the research phase of internally researched and developed intangible assets shall be included in the current profit and loss when they incur; The expenditures incurred in the development stage of the internal research and development projects shall be recognized as intangible assets when the following conditions are met; otherwise, they shall be recorded into the current profit and loss when they incur. i. It is technically feasible to finish intangible assets for use or sale; ii. It is intended to finish and use or sell the intangible assets; iii. The usefulness of methods for intangible assets to generate economic benefits shall be proved, including being able to prove that there is a potential market for the products manufactured by applying the intangible assets or there is a potential market for the intangible assets themselves or the intangible assets will be used internally; iv. It is able to finish the development of the intangible assets, and able to use or sell the intangible assets, with the support of sufficient technologies, financial resources and other resources. v. The expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development phase can be measured reliably. d. If payment of the purchase price of intangible assets can be deferred and exceeds normal credit conditions, the purchase has the nature of finance in fact and cost of the intangible asset shall be determined on the basis of present value of the purchase price. The difference between the amount actually paid and the present value of the purchase price should be recorded into current profit or loss other than those should be capitalized during the credit period. Useful life and the basis for its determination, estimation, amortization methodology or review procedures For intangible assets with limited useful life, amortization shall be carried out according to the straight- line method within the period that brings economic benefits to the enterprise. At the end of each period, the useful life and amortization method of intangible assets with limited service life shall be reviewed. If there are differences with the original estimates, corresponding adjustments shall be made. Intangible assets whose useful life is uncertain shall be regarded as intangible assets if it is impossible to foresee the term in which intangible assets bring economic benefits to the enterprise. Intangible assets with uncertain useful life shall not be amortized during the holding period, and the life of intangible assets shall be reviewed at the end of each period. If it is still uncertain after the review at the end of the period, the impairment test shall continue during each accounting period. At the end of each period, the useful life of intangible assets with uncertain service life shall be reviewed. Impairment test On the balance sheet date, intangible assets are valued at the lower of book value and recoverable 117 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. amount. (2) The scope of research and development expenditure collection and the related accounting treatment The R&D expenditure of the Company mainly include the materials consumed in the implementation of R&D activities, salaries of R&D department employees, depreciation and amortisation of assets such as equipment and software used in research and development, R&D testing, R&D technical service fees, and licensing fees. The expenditures incurred in the development stage of the research and development projects shall be recognized as intangible assets when the following conditions are met; otherwise, they shall be recorded into the current profit and loss when they occur. a. It is technically feasible to finish intangible assets for use or sale; b. It is intended to finish and use or sell the intangible assets; c. The usefulness of methods for intangible assets to generate economic benefits shall be proved, including being able to prove that there is a potential market for the products manufactured by applying the intangible assets or there is a potential market for the intangible assets themselves or the intangible assets will be used internally; d. It is able to finish the development of the intangible assets, and able to use or sell the intangible assets, with the support of sufficient technologies, financial resources and other resources. e. The expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development phase can be measured reliably. Development expenditures that have been recorded into profit and loss in previous periods are not recognized as assets in subsequent periods. The capitalized expenditure in the development stage is listed as development expenditure in the balance sheet, and it will be recorded into intangible assets from the date when the project reaches its intended purpose. 5. 30. Long-term assets impairment On the balance sheet date, the Company makes a judgment on whether there are signs of possible impairment of long-term assets. If there are impairment indicators of non-current assets, the Company estimates the recoverable amount based on individual asset. If recoverable amount of individual asset is difficult to be estimated, the Company should recognize the recoverable amount of the asset group which the individual asset belongs to. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair values less costs of disposal and the present values of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. If the measurement result of recoverable amount shows that recoverable amount of the non-current assets is less than its book value, the book value shall be written down to the recoverable amount, and 118 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. the amount written down shall be recognized as the impairment loss of assets, recorded into the current profit and loss, and the corresponding impairment provision of assets shall be made at the same time. Once impairment loss stated above is recognized, reversal is not allowed in the subsequent accounting periods. After the recognition of the impairment loss, the depreciation or amortization expense of the impairment asset shall be adjusted accordingly in the future period so as to systematically apportion the adjusted book value of the asset (deducting the expected net salvage value) within the remaining service life of the asset. The Company should perform impairment test for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite life at least at each year end, no matter whether there is impairment indicator. Goodwill shall be combined with its related asset group or asset group portfolio so as to perform an impairment test. When the Company performs an impairment test on relevant asset group or asset group portfolio including goodwill, if there are signs of impairment, the Company shall firstly perform an impairment test on asset group or asset group portfolio excluding goodwill and calculate the recoverable amount, and compare with the related book value, recognize the corresponding impairment loss. Then, the Company performs an impairment test on relevant asset group or asset group portfolio including goodwill, and compares the book value of the relevant asset groups or asset group portfolio (including proportional book value of goodwill) with its recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount of relevant asset group or asset group portfolio is less than its book value, the Company shall recognize impairment loss of goodwill. 5. 31. Long-term deferred expenses Long-term deferred expenses shall be initially measured according to the actual costs incurred. It is amortized using the straight-line method over the beneficial period. If it cannot benefit the following accounting period, the amortized value of the item that has not been amortized will be transferred to the current profit and loss. 5. 32. Contract liabilities The recognition method of contract liabilities: The Company presents contract assets or contract liabilities on the balance sheet according to the relationship between the fulfillment of its contract performance obligations and its customers’ payment. Obligations to be fulfilled by the Company of transferring commodities or providing services to customers, as the Company has received or should receive customers’ considerations, are presented as contract liabilities. 119 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. 5. 33. Employee benefits (1) Accounting treatment method of short-term benefits Short-term benefits are the benefits that the Company expects to pay in full within 12 months after the reporting period in which the employee provided relevant services, excluding the compensation for employment termination. Accrued short term benefits will be recognized as liability during the accounting period in which the employee is providing the relevant service to the Company. The liability will be included in the current profit and loss or the relevant assets cost. (2) Accounting treatment method of post-employment benefits a. Defined contribution plan The defined contribution plan of the Company includes payments of basic pension and unemployment insurance calculated according to the local payment base and proportion. The amount shall be included into the profit and loss or the relevant assets cost for the accounting period in which the employee provides the service to the Company. b. Defined benefit plan According to the formula determined by the expected accumulative projected unit credit method, the Company will record the benefit obligation generated by the defined benefit plan belonging to the period during in which the employee provides the service into the current profit and loss or the relevant assets cost. The deficit or surplus resulting from the present value minus the fair value of the assets of a defined benefit plan is recognized as a net liability or net asset of a defined benefit plan. If there is surplus in the defined benefit plan, the net assets of the defined benefit plan shall be measured at the lower of the surplus and the upper limit of assets of the defined benefit plan. All defined benefit plan obligations, including those expected to be paid within the twelve months following the end of the annual reporting period in which the employee provides the service, are discounted based on the market yield and high quality corporate bonds in an active market that match the duration and currency of defined benefit plan obligations on the balance sheet date. The service costs generated by the defined benefit plan and the net interest on net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan are included in the current profit and loss or relevant assets cost; Changes in net liabilities or net assets generated by the re-measurement of the defined benefit plan are included in other comprehensive income and are not reversed to profit and loss in subsequent accounting periods. At the time of settlement of the defined benefit plan, the settlement gains or losses shall be recognized according to the difference between the present value of the obligations of the defined benefit plan and the settlement price determined on the settlement date. 120 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. (3) Accounting treatment method of termination benefits Employee benefits liabilities shall be recognized and included into profit or loss for the current period on the earlier date of the two following circumstances: a. When the Company is not able to withdraw the benefits from termination of employment or resignation persuasion unilaterally; b. When the Company recognizes costs and fees relevant to reforming the termination benefits payment. As for the termination benefits that cannot be fully paid within 12 months after the end of the annual report period, the Company shall choose an appropriate discount rate and record it into current profit and loss based on it. (4) Accounting treatment method of other long-term employee benefits Other long-term employee benefits are all employee benefits other than short-term benefits, post- employment benefits and termination benefits. Other long-term employee benefits provided by the Company to the employee that meet the conditions of the defined contribution plan shall be treated in accordance with the same principles of the defined contribution plan; If the conditions for defined benefits are met, net liabilities or net assets of other long- term employee benefits shall be recognized and measured in accordance with the relevant principles of the defined benefits plan. 5. 34. Estimated liabilities (1) Recognition criteria of estimated liabilities If the contingent obligations meet the following conditions simultaneously, the Company shall recognize it as an estimated liability: This obligation is the Company's current obligation; the performance of this obligation is highly likely to result in an outflow of economic benefits from the Company; The amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. (2) Measurement method of estimated liabilities The Company's estimated liabilities are initially measured in terms of the best estimate of the expenditure of fulfilling the relevant current obligations. For determining the best estimate, the Company takes various factors into account such as the risk, uncertainty and time value of money related to contingencies. If the time value of money has a significant impact, the best estimate is determined by discounting the relevant future cash outflows. The best estimate is processed as follows: Where there is a continuous range (or range) of required expenditures and the probability of the 121 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. occurrence of various results within the range is same, the best estimate is determined according to the mean of the middle value of the range, namely the mean value of the upper and lower limits. Where there is no continuous range (or range) of required expenditures, or where there is a continuous range but the possibility of various outcomes within the range is different, if the contingencies involve a single item, the best estimate is determined according to the most likely amount; If the contingencies involve more than one item, the best estimate is calculated and determined according to various possible results and relevant probabilities. Where all or part of the expenses required for the liquidation of the estimated liabilities of the Company are expected to be compensated by a third party, the amount of compensation shall be recognized as an asset when it is basically confirmed that it can be received, and the confirmed amount of compensation shall not exceed the book value of the estimated liabilities. 5. 35. Share-based payment (1) The type of share-based payment Share-based payment is classified as equity-settled share-based payment and cash-settled share- based payment. (2) The method of determining the fair value of equity instruments For equity-settled share-based payment related with employees, the equity instrument is measured at fair value. The cash-settled share-based payment shall be measured according to the fair value of the liabilities calculated and determined on the basis of shares or other equity instruments undertaken by the Company. For the fair value of the stock option granted, the fair value is determined by using the stock option pricing model, and the following factors are taken into account: the current price of the underlying shares, the exercise price of the option, the risk-free interest rate within the period of the option, the option life, and the expected volatility of the stock price. (3) Recognition of the best estimate basis of instrument that can be exercised For the equity-settled share-based payment settled immediately after the grant, the fair value of the equity instrument shall be included in the relevant costs or expenses on the grant date, and the capital reserve shall be increased accordingly. Grant date means the date on which the share-payment agreement is approved. For the equity-settled share-based payment, in which the services during waiting period are completed and the performance conditions are met, in return for services of employees, on each balance sheet date during waiting period, the current obtained service shall be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the capital reserves in accordance with the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant date, based on best estimate of the number of vested equity instruments, and the subsequent changes in fair value shall not be recognized. On each balance sheet date during waiting period, the 122 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. Company makes the best estimate based on the latest available employee number change and other subsequent information, and modifies the number of equity instruments for the estimated vesting. On the vesting date, the final expected number of vesting instruments is the same as the actual number of vesting instruments. (4) Relevant accounting treatment of implement, modification and termination of share-based payment plan For equity-settled share-based payment, no adjustments will be made to the recognized costs and total owners' equity after the vesting date. On the vesting date, the Company shall recognize the share capital and the equity premium according to the exercise situation, and carry forward the capital reserve recognized in the waiting period. No matter how it modifies the terms and conditions of the granted equity instruments or it cancels the granted equity instruments or its settlement, the equity instruments granted by the Company shall be recognized at fair value on the grant date and it measures obtained the corresponding services, unless it cannot be vested because it cannot meet the vesting conditions of equity instruments (except market conditions). 5.36. Other financial instruments such as preferred shares and perpetual bonds N/A 5. 37. Revenue Accounting policies for recognition and measurement of revenue disclosed by type of business (1) Basic principles of revenue identification The Company recognizes revenue when it has fulfilled the performance obligations under the contract, that is, when the customers obtain the control of relevant goods or services, at the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations. Performance obligations refer to the Company's promise that it will transfer clearly distinguishable goods or services to customers under the contract. Obtaining control of related goods refers to that customers can control the use of the goods and obtain almost all the economic benefits from the goods. The Company will evaluate the contract on the contract start date, identify each individual performance obligation contained in the contract, and judge whether each individual performance obligation will be performed within a certain period of time or at a certain point in time. If one of the following conditions is met, and the performance obligation is performed within a certain period of time, the Company will identify revenue within a period of time according to the performance progress: a. The customers obtain and consume the economic profits while the Company performs the contract. b. The customers can control the products under construction during the performance of the Company; c. The products 123 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. produced during the performance of the Company cannot be replaced, and the Company has the right to collect payment for the completed performance accumulated during the entire contract period. Otherwise, the Company will identify revenue when the customers obtain control rights of the relevant goods or services. For the performance obligations performed within a certain period of time, the Company will apply the input-output method to identify the appropriate performance progress based on the nature of the goods and services. The input-output method is to identify the performance progress based on the value of the goods that have been transferred to the customers to the customers. When the performance progress cannot be reasonably identified and the Company's incurred costs are expected to be compensated, the Company will identify the revenue according to the amount of the incurred costs until the performance progress can be reasonably identified. (2) The methods of revenue identification The Company primarily sells baijiu, which involve performance obligations fulfilled at a certain point in time. For the recognition of the revenue of domestic products, the following conditions must be met: The Company has delivered the products to the customer as per the contract, and the customer has accepted the goods; payment has been received or a receipt voucher has been obtained, and the relevant economic benefits are likely to flow in; and control of the goods has transferred to the customer. The following requirements must be met to recognise the revenue of export products: The Company has declared the products according to the contract, obtained the bill of lading, received the payment or obtained the receipt voucher, and relevant economic benefits are likely to flow in, and control of the goods has transferred to the customer. The following requirements must be met to recognise the revenue of sales through third-party platforms or company-owned websites: The sales platform is responsible for delivering the goods to the customer, or the Company entrusts a logistics company to deliver the goods to the customer, and revenue is recognised upon receipt of the platform settlement statement or upon delivery of the goods. Different business models for the same type of business involve different revenue recognition and measurement methods N/A 5.38 Contract costs Contract costs comprise incremental costs incurred as the Company obtains a contract, and costs for contract performance. Incremental costs incurred as the Company obtains a contract refer to those costs which will not incur without entering into a contract (such as sales commission). If it is expected that the costs are recoverable, the Company will recognize the costs incurred to obtain a contract as one form of assets. In case that the term of asset amortization is shorter than one year or one normal operating cycle, the costs will be recognized as profit and loss of the current period after occurrence. 124 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. If the costs incurred from contract performance fall outside the inventory or the scope of other enterprise accounting standards and satisfy all of the following conditions, the Company will recognize the costs for contract performance as assets: a) The costs are directly related to one existing contract or contract that is expected to be obtained; b) The costs enrich the Company's resources for future contract performance (including continual fulfillment); c) The costs are estimated to be recovered. Assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain a contract and costs for contract performance (hereinafter referred to as "assets related to contract costs") will be amortized based on the basis the same with the income from commodities or services related to the assets, and will be recognized as profit and loss of the current period. In case that the book value of assets related to contract costs is higher than the difference of the two items below, the Company will set aside provisions for assets impairment to deal with the extra part, and recognize that part as impairment losses: a) Estimated residual consideration to be obtained from transfer of commodities or services related to the assets; b) Estimated costs incurred from transfer of the relevant commodities or services. 5. 39. Government grants Government grants are monetary assets and non-monetary assets acquired free of charge by the Company from the government like fiscal subsidies. (1) Judgment basis and accounting treatment method of government grants related to assets Government grants related to assets are government grants that are acquired by the Company and used for forming long-term assets through purchasing and constructing or other ways. If the government documents do not clearly specify the target of the subsidy, the Company shall separately explain judgment basis of classifying the government grants into the government grants related to assets or income. Accounting method: it shall be recognized as deferred income allocated evenly over the useful lives (the period of depreciation and amortization) of the relevant assets from the month of commence of depreciation or amortization when the relevant assets reaching the intended use condition, and included in the current profit or loss. However, government grants measured at the nominal amount shall be directly included in current profit and loss. (2) Judgment basis and accounting treatment method of government grants related to income Government grants related to income are government grants other than government grants related to assets; Accounting method: a. If it is used to compensate the Company’s relevant expenses or losses in future periods, it should be recognized as deferred income and included into the current profit and loss or written off of the related 125 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. costs when the relevant expenses, losses are recognized. b. If it is used to compensate the Company’s relevant expenses or losses incurred, it is directly included into the current profit and loss on acquisition or written off of the related costs. c. Recognition time-point of government grants Government grants are recognized when the Company can meet the attached conditions for the government grants and the Company can receive the grants. d. Measurement of government grants If a government grant is a monetary asset, it shall be measured in the light of the received or receivable amount. If a government grant is a non-monetary asset, it shall be measured at its fair value; and if its fair value cannot be obtained in a reliable way, it shall be measured at a nominal amount. 5. 40. Deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities The Company adopts the balance sheet liability method to account for income tax. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets when the following conditions are met simultaneously: i. Temporary differences are highly likely to be reversed in the foreseeable future; ii. Taxable income that may be used to offset the deductible temporary difference is likely to be obtained in the future and is limited to the amount of taxable income that is likely to be obtained. On each balance sheet date, the current income tax liabilities (or assets) incurred in the current period or prior periods shall be measured by the Company in light of the expected payable (refundable) amount of income taxes according to the tax law; The deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities shall be measured at the tax rate applicable to the period during which the assets are expected to be recovered or the liabilities are expected to be settled. The Company shall review the carrying amount of deferred income tax assets on each balance sheet date. The current income tax and deferred income tax shall be recorded into the current profit and loss as income tax expense or income, except for the income tax generated from the enterprise merger, transactions or events directly recognized in the owner's equity. Basis for deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities presented as a net amount after offset: When the following conditions are simultaneously met, deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are presented as a net amount after offset: i. The enterprise has the legal right to settle the current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities on a net basis; ii. Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities were related to the income tax levied by the same tax administration department on the same taxpayer or different taxpayers, but during the period when each significant deferred income tax assets and liabilities would be reversed in the future, the involved taxpayer intended to settle the current income tax assets and 126 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. liabilities on a net basis or to acquire assets and settle liabilities at the same time. 5. 41. Lease (1) Accounting treatment with the Company as lessee ①Judgment criteria and accounting treatment for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets as a lessee for simplified treatment On the beginning date of the lease term, the Company will recognise the lease with a lease term not exceeding 12 months and exclude the purchase option as a short-term lease. Leases with a value below CNY 40,000 when a single leased asset is a brand-new asset are identified as low-value asset leases. If the Company sublets or expects to sublet the leased assets, the original lease shall not be deemed as a low-value asset lease. The Company records the payments of short-term and low-value asset leases incurred during each period of the lease term in the relevant asset costs or the profit or loss for the current period by the straight-line method. The Company will recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the inception date of the lease term, excluding the above short-term and low-value asset leases. ②Right-of-use assets Right-of-use assets are initially measured at costs, including: A. The initial measurement amount of lease liabilities; B. If there is a lease incentive for the lease payment paid on or before the start date of the lease term, the relevant amount of the lease incentive already enjoyed shall be deducted; C. Initial direct expenses incurred by the Company; D. The expected cost to be borne by the Company in order to dismantle and remove the assets leased, restore original state of the place where the assets leased are in, or restore the assets leased to the state stipulated in the lease terms. ③Lease liabilities The Company initially measures the lease obligation at the present value of the lease payments outstanding at the commencement date of the lease term. When calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the interest rate implicit in lease as the rate of discount. If the interest rate implicit in lease cannot be determined, the Company’s incremental lending rate is used as the rate of discount. After the commencement of the lease term, the Company uses the cost model for subsequent measurement of right-of-use assets, depreciates right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis, calculates the interest expense on the lease liability within the lease term and includes it in the current profit or loss, unless such interest charge is stipulated to be included in the underlying asset cost. Variable lease payments that are not included in the measurement of the lease obligation should be included in the current profit or loss when they are actually incurred, unless such payments are stipulated to be 127 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. included in the underlying asset cost. After the commencement of the lease term, the Company remeasures the lease liability and adjusts the corresponding right-of-use asset, and if the carrying value of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero but the lease liability is subject to further reduction, the difference is recorded in current profit or loss: (1) When there is a change in the valuation of the purchase option, renewal option or termination option, or actual exercise, the Company remeasures the lease liabilities at the present value of the lease payments after the change and the revised discount rate; (2) When there is a change in the actual fixed payment, the estimated payable of the residual value of the guarantee, the index or rate used to confirm the lease payment, the Company calculated the present value based on the changed lease payment amount and the original discount rate to remeasure the lease liabilities. However, where changes in lease payments arise from changes in floating interest rates, a revised discount rate was used to calculate the present value. (2) Accounting treatment with the Company as lessor ① Lease classification The Company classifies leases into finance leases and operating leases at the inception of leases. A finance lease refers to a lease where almost all the risks and rewards, related to the ownership of the leased asset, are substantially transferred, regardless of whether the ownership is eventually transferred or not. All leases other than finance leases are classified as operating leases. ② Operating leases The Company recognizes the lease payments receivable of the operating lease as rental earnings in each period within the lease term on a straight-line basis or according to other systematic and reasonable methods. The initial direct costs related to the operating lease are capitalized, amortized within the lease term on the same basis as the recognition of rental earnings, and included in profit or loss for the current period. The received variable lease payments related to the operating lease that are not included in the lease payments receivable are included in profit or loss for the current period when they are actually incurred. ③ Finance leases On the commencement date of the lease term, the Company recognizes the finance lease receivables for the finance lease and derecognizes the leased asset of the finance lease. In the initial measurement of finance lease receivables, the sum of the unsecured residual value and the present value of the lease payments receivable not yet received on the commencement date of the lease term discounted at the interest rate implicit in lease is the entry value of the finance lease receivables. The Company calculates and recognizes the interest income in each period within the lease term at a fixed interest rate implicit in the lease. The received variable lease payments that are not included in the measurement of the net investment in the lease are included in profit or loss for the current period when 128 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. they are actually incurred. 5.42. Income tax expenses The Company adopts the balance sheet liability method to account for income tax. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets when the following conditions are met simultaneously: 1. Temporary differences are highly likely to be reversed in the foreseeable future; 2. Taxable income that may be used to offset the deductible temporary difference is likely to be obtained in the future and is limited to the amount of taxable income that is likely to be obtained. On each balance sheet date, the current income tax liabilities (or assets) incurred in the current period or prior periods shall be measured by the Company in light of the expected payable (refundable) amount of income taxes according to the tax law; The deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities shall be measured at the tax rate applicable to the period during which the assets are expected to be recovered or the liabilities are expected to be settled. The Company shall review the carrying amount of deferred income tax assets on each balance sheet date. The current income tax and deferred income tax shall be recorded into the current profit and loss as income tax expense or income, except for the income tax generated from the enterprise merger, transactions or events directly recognized in the owner's equity. 5. 43 Other significant accounting policies and accounting estimates N/A 5. 44 Changes in significant accounting policies and accounting estimates 5.44.1.

The specific details of government grants included in current profit or loss are provided in Note 7.44. 12. Risks related to financial instruments 12.1. Various types of risks arising from financial instruments The Company's primary financial instruments include monetary capital, trading financial assets, accounts receivable, receivables financing, receivables other than tax refundable, other equity instruments, held-for-trading financial liabilities, bills payable, accounts payable, other payables, lease liabilities, some other current liabilities and loans. A detailed description of each financial instrument is set out in Note V and notes to the Consolidated Financial Statement. Risks related to these financial instruments, and risk management policies the Company has adopted to reduce these risks are described as follows. The Company management manages and monitors the risk exposure to ensure the above risks are controlled in a limited scope. The Company adopts sensitivity analysis technology to analyze the possible impact of reasonable and possible changes of risk variables on current profits/losses or shareholders' equity. As any risk variable rarely changes in isolation, and the correlation between variables will have a significant effect on the final impact amount of the change of a risk variable, the following content is based on the assumption that the change of each variable is independent. Risk management objective: The Company strikes an appropriate balance between risk and return, and strives to minimize the negative impact of risk on the Company's operating performance and maximize the interests of shareholders and other equity investors. Risk management policy: The Board of Directors shall be responsible for planning and establishing a risk management framework, formulating risk management policies and related guidelines, and supervising the implementation of risk management measures. The Risk Management Committee shall carry out risk management through close collaboration (including the identification, evaluation and avoidance of relevant risks) with other business units of the Company in accordance with the policies approved by the Board of Directors. The internal audit department shall conduct regular audits on risk management controls and procedures and report the results to the Audit Committee. The Company has formulated risk management policies to identify and analyze the risks it faces, clarifying specific risks and covering many aspects such as credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk management. On a regular basis, the Company evaluates the specific marketing environment and various changes in the Company's business operations to determine whether any risk management policy and system should be updated. The Company diversifies the risks to financial instruments through appropriately diversified investments and business portfolios, and reduces the risk of concentration in any single industry, specific geographic area or specific counterparty by formulating appropriate risk management policies. 186 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. 12.1.1. Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that one party to a financial instrument cannot perform its obligations, causing financial losses to the other party. The Company only trades with recognized, reputable, and large third parties. In accordance with the Company's policy, the terms of sale with customers are based on transactions of payment before delivery, with only a small amount of credit transactions, and credit review for all customers who require credit to trade. In addition, the Company continuously monitors and controls the balance of the receivables to ensure that the Company does not face significant bad debt risks. In addition, the Company makes full provision for expected credit losses at each balance sheet date based on the collection of receivables. Therefore, the Company's management believes that the Company's credit risk has been greatly reduced. The Company's working capital is deposited in banks with high credit rating, so the credit risk of working capital is low. The Company's risk exposures are spread across multiple contract parties and customers in multiple geographies, with customers in the commerce industry in addition to the alcohol distribution industry (the main industry). No systemic risk has been identified in the relevant industries. Therefore, the Company has no significant credit concentration risk. As at 30 June 2024, the balance of the top five customers of the Company's accounts receivable amounted to CNY 4,125,500, accounting for 88.61% of the balance of the Company's accounts receivable. 12.1.2. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk refers to the risk unable to obtain sufficient funds in time to meet business development needs or to repay debts due and other payment obligations. The Company has sufficient working capital. The liquidity risk is extremely small. The Company's objective is to use a variety of financing instruments such as bank clearing, bank loans and issuing corporate bonds to maintain a balance between financing sustainability and flexibility. As at 30 June 2024, the Company has been able to meet its own continuing operation requirements through the use of cash flow from operations. The analysis of the financial liabilities held by the Company based on the maturity period of the undiscounted remaining contractual obligations is as follows: Closing Balance Item Contract amount Book value Within 1 year 1-2 years 2-3 years Over 3 years not discounted Account 2,162,821,537.6 2,162,821,537.6 2,162,821,537.6 s 4 4 4 payable Other 849,638,890.46 849,638,890.46 849,638,890.46 payable Non- current liabilities 1,555,342,077.2 1,555,342,077.2 1,555,342,077.2 due 3 3 3 within one year Long- 10,990,000,000. 10,990,000,000. 8,260,500,000.0 1,509,500,000.0 1,220,000,000.0 187 2024 Interim Report of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. term 00 00 0 0 0 loans Lease 28,420,897.97 31,516,780.78 9,691,153.91 7,456,393.91 14,369,232.96 liabilities 15,586,223,403. 15,589,319,286. 4,567,802,505.3 8,270,191,153.9 1,516,956,393.9 1,234,369,232.9 Total 30 11 3 1 1 6 12.1.3. Market risk ① Foreign exchange risk The foreign exchange risk refers to the risk of loss due to exchange rate changes. Apart from the three subsidiaries of the Company which make purchases and sales in USD and HKD, the other major business activities are denominated and settled in CNY. The Company closely monitors the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on its foreign exchange risk, and actively tracks the scale of foreign currency transactions, as well as foreign currency assets and liabilities, to minimise exposure to exchange rate risks. In order to hedge risks in the foreign exchange market, prevent adverse effects from significant fluctuations in exchange rates, control financial expenses and reduce exchange rate risks in overseas operations, the Company's subsidiary, Hong Kong Company, has engaged in forward foreign exchange contract transactions. As at 30 June 2024, the Company's assets and liabilities are mainly in CNY balance. At present, the Company's management considers the impact of changes in foreign exchange risk on the Company's financial statements to be less. ② Rate risk The Company's interest rate risk mainly arises from the long-term loans from banks. Financial liabilities based on the floating interest rate will cause the cash flow interest rate risk to the Company, and financial liabilities based on the fixed interest rate the fair value interest rate risk. The Company will determine the corresponding proportion between the contracts with fixed interest rate and those with floating interest rate in combination with current market condition. ③ Other price risks Other price risk refers to the risk of fluctuation caused by market price changes other than foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk, whether these changes are caused by factors related to a single financial instrument or its issuer or all similar financial instruments traded in the market. Other price risks faced by the Company mainly come from held-for-trading financial assets and investments in other equity instruments measured at fair value. 13. Fair value disclosure 13.1.
