The company shall comply with the disclosure requirements set forth in “Shenzhen Stock Exchange’s Industry Information Disclosure Guidance No. 1---Listed Companies Engaged in Livestock, Poultry and Aquaculture 2 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd Businesses”. I. Epidemic and natural disaster risks The animal epidemic disease is the main risk faced in the development of livestock industry. There are three kinds of risks arising out of the occurrence of epidemic disease. First, the occurrence of epidemic disease is likely to result in death of livestock, and leads directly to the reduction in yield, rising costs and drop in prices. Second, the occurrence and prevalence of epidem ic disease on a large scale easily influence the consumer psychology, lead to shrinking market demand, and affect the feed production and operation. Third, after the outbreak of some infectious epidemic diseases endangering the public health and safety, the government will take lockdown and other measures to contain the spread of epidemic disease. These epidemic containment measures will seriously hinder the transportation of feed, animal healthcare products and live livestock, and the workers returning to work, and have a great impact on the production and operation of breeding industry. In addition, the outbreak of infectious epidemic diseases will force most catering enterprises to close business, some agricultural product markets to shut down, and consumers to reduce shopping activities outdoors, resulting in reduced meat demand and consumption. For example, the African Swine Fever (ASF) with an enormous impact on the entire industry broke out in 2018. As the ASF is characterized by long latency and high mortality after onset of the disease, and the effective and reliable vaccine has not yet been developed successfully, coupled with the fact that it was also the 3 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd concentrated outbreak on a large scale in China for the first time, both the large-scale breeding enterprises and small farmers lacked effective containment measures at the onset of epidemic, thereby suffering losses to varying degrees. From the late 2020 to the first quarter of 2021, attenuated ASF virus bounced back once again, especially hitting Hebei, Shandong, Henan and other places, and once again causing prevalent effects to farming companies and farming households in these areas. The COVID-19 outbreak at the beginning of 2020 also posed daunting challenges to the livestock and poultry breeding industry in China. The anti-epidemic measures such as lockdown, delay in return to work, suspension of live poultry trading, and shutdown of slaughter houses led to unavailability of feed to farms and livestock farmers, newborn livestock nowhere to sell, inability to slaughter livestock and poultry, and difficulties to conduct breeding production activities normally. After entry into 2021, despite the stable epidemic containment situation in China, scattered episodes of the epidemic across the country and regional lockdown policies would also cause hindrances to movement of personnel and materials related to business operations. In terms of the natural disaster risk, the feed and slaughter are closely related to planting and livestock breeding industry, so the natural disasters such as temperature anomalies, drought, flood, earthquake, hail, and snow disaster will all adversely affect the industry operation and development. The natural disasters occurring on the production bases of the company and surrounding 4 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd areas may cause substantial damages to production facilities or equipment, and the natural disasters and extreme climate may also drive the prices of some feed ingredients and meats up. For example, serious flood disasters broke out in many places of South China in 2020, adversely affecting the planting, breeding, farm produce logistics, project implementation and meat prices along the industry chain to varying degrees: in terms of planting, continuous catastrophic floods hitting some areas result in decreased output of feed ingredients, thus impacting the feed ingredients prices, while at the same time decreasing the quality of raw materials; in terms of breeding, flood might cause pathogenic microorganisms buried in the land surrounding breeding farms to be exposed in air and drinking water, and result in spread of pathogenic microorganisms and trigger epidemic diseases. In addition, several provinces hardest hit by the floods are major aquatic breeding areas in China, where the impact of floods not only would destroy fishery production equipment but also is highly likely to wash off fish-barring facilities and bring away fry and adult fishes, causing losses to economic income of farmers and thus affecting feed ingredients sales of the company; in terms of logistics, roads are flooded and roadbeds and road surfaces destroyed wherever flood sweeps, forcing the freight costs of raw materials, feed, finished products and breeding pigs to rise and the transport capacity down, causing pressures on the supply chain of the company; in terms of project implementation, continuous rainstorms also cause part of capital investment construction projects of the company to suffer temporary shutdown, 5 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd affecting the construction schedule; in terms of meat prices, flood would also impact the meat supply and directly contributed to the rising prices of pigs, while the gap in meat prices between affected areas and unaffected areas was growing, thus leading to increased allocation and transport of hogs, and resulting in spread of the pandemic to a certain extent. Risk countermeasures: In the face of animal epidemics, the livestock farms planned and constructed by the company’s breeding base are normalized and standardized farms staffed with professional breeding technologists and equipped with strict anti-epidemic measures to effectively prevent and control the occurrence of epidemic diseases. The company has also summarized some experience and measures responding to major epidemic diseases through years of exploration and accumulation, which allow the company to eliminates the impact of various epidemics by adjusting the product mix when appropriate, improving the product quality, conducting deep market development actively and reducing the costs. Since 2014, the company has been guiding technicians to better serve farmers by establishing animal healthcare laboratories in various areas, creating the cloud-based animal healthcare system, and conducting the monitoring and warning of epidemics and diseases in real time. In view of ASF outbreak in 2018, the company formulated all-round and system-wide prevention and control measures, covering existing self-run pig farms, fattening farms in cooperation with farmer households, new pig farms of the company, swine feed production units and internal animal healthcare laboratories, with a 6 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd view to ensuring proper prevention and control at the source of animal nutrition. Meanwhile, actively participating in industry exchanges and exploring more effective containment methods with peers allowed the company’s bio-safety epidemic prevention system, pig survival rate and marketing rate to achieve industry-leading levels. From the end of the previous year to the first quarter of this year, a new round of attenuated ASF outbreak in many northern provin ces is characterized by extensive outside contamination, numerous channels of spread, long latency periods and a long phase of effect, thus posing new challenges to the containment measures formed by the industry based on the past two years of ASF containment at the initial stage of the outbreak. However, the company continued summing up its experiences and upgrading containment and decontamination methods in the containment process, including whole-population serum double-antibody and double-screening, application of thermal imagers, and static attenuation and disinfection of materials; and the company added up its containment processes then subtracted so as to avoid slackness resulting from prolonged and excessively trivial containment processes, which helped restore normal production faster while ensuring containment, as well as reduce bio-safety containment costs at the same time. With the aforesaid measures, the number of ASF-affected farms at the end of the first half of the year has been kept below 1%. In response to the COVID-19, the company lost no time to react, formulated and carried out various containment policies and conducted emergency 7 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd disposition in a coordinated manner. Secondly, the company actively communicates with the government at all levels, coordinates the transportation of goods such as livestock products, and raw and auxiliary materials of feed and products, secures vehicle passes, and implements the green channel policy enacted by the government at all levels. Thirdly, the company ensures sufficient procurement for feed plants and production supply through region-wide coordination, strengthens internal support for poultry industry integration, arranges its employees to return to work rapidly and orderly, contributes to the adequate supply of daily necessities across the country, adjusts its food industry strategy in real time and expands sales through supermarket channel and online channel. Fourthly, in light of its business practices, the company compiled the epidemic containment manual, published documents such as technical guidance on employee prevention and control and quarantine and guidance on engineering control amid epidemics, makes the epidemic prevention arrangements in a targeted manner and strengthens employee safety protection. In response to natural disasters, although unable to rule out the possibility that serious natural disasters will occur in areas where its subsidiaries operate, the company’s extensive business portfolio and presense both at home and abroad help ensure that the company’s business will not be materially affected when natural disasters occur in particular regions. Especially for the rainstorms and floods in south China, which have occurred frequently in these years, the company has accumulated a large wealth of experience, establishes proven 8 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd contingency plans and maintains sufficient flood prevention supplies in stock at all times, which allow the company to flexibly guide farmers through production plan adjustments when the flood season begins in preparation for disaster relief together. At the same time, the company can also take the advantage of its nationwide presence to allocate funds, raw materials, equipment, and staff timely and effectively to resume production as soon as possible and reduce the losses caused by natural disasters. II. Risk of price fluctuations of feed ingredients The cost of main feed ingredients for feed production accounts for more than 90% of total cost of feed production. In the past, the proportion of feed business in the company’s revenue was large, but as the feed industry generally adopts the cost-plus pricing method, the fluctuations in prices of feed ingredients can be partly transmitted to the downstream breeding operations, to relieve the pressure from the rising prices of feed ingredients. However, with a growing percentage of livestock breeding business in the company’s revenue, the rising prices of feed ingredients will have a growing impact on the company. Since 2020, due to many influencing factors such as the COVID-19, changed purchase and storage policies and crop yield in main grain-producing areas of various countries, the prices of main feed ingredients such as corn and soybean meal continuously rose, with the average market prices of corn approaching 3,000 Yuan per ton in early 2021. Coupled with the continuous tension between China and the US, which brings great uncertainties to the bulk 9 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd produce trade between the two countries and international trade of feed ingredients in the future, the risk of price fluctuations will exist in the long term. Moreover, against the background of longtime existence of ASF in China, the feed enterprises will reduce some high-risk feed ingredients for the safety of animal nutrition, such as usage of corn, pig blood, and pig bone me al, so as to make the demand for raw materials concentrate on other types of raw materials, which will also lead to rise in prices of such alternative raw materials. Risk countermeasures: The company is the largest domestic feed enterprise with the scale advantages and a considerable say in the raw material purchasing. The company started reorganizing and optimizing its raw material procurement system in 2017, combed through its supplier system actively, established strategic partnerships with many domestic and overseas best-run raw material suppliers, conducted the supply chain financing of various forms actively, and optimized its purchasing cost and related financial expenses. In 2019, the company continued to drive transformations in terms of central purchasing of raw materials, strategic purchasing channel optimization of partners, acquisition of corn produced in northeast China, and purchasing model upgrading, realizing a greater purchasing value despite the challenges. The COVID-19 crisis in 2020 has caused phase-specific impact on the prices of feed ingredients and feed additives, but the company applied hedging tools more to control the ingredient price fluctuation risk, while the company’s technology, purchasing, production and marketing departments worked closely with each 10 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd other during the response to the pandemic, with these experiences already summarized and applied into the daily operation management of the feed business. In the first half of 2021, when prices of main feed ingredients such as corn and soybean meal continuously fluctuated at high levels, the company actively purchased imported low-price ingredients and alternative ingredients such as wheat, sorghum and brown rice while properly anticipating the market condition, in an effort to continually optimize ingredient costs. III. Risk of price fluctuations of livestock and poultry The finished products of livestock and poultry breeding business of the company mainly include baby chick, baby duck, white -feathered chicken, white-feathered duck, breeding pig, piglet, and hog. Especially since 2016, the pig farming business of the company has been growing rapidly, with 8.29 million hogs sold in 2020 and more than 500 million self-raised and outsourced commercial generation chicken and ducks sold, which allowed the livestock and poultry breeding to contribute greater to the entire revenue and profits of the company. Along with the further growth of breeding volume of the company in the future, the prices of livestock and poultry will affect the levels of revenue and profits of the company even more remarkably. In the first half of 2021, the domestic livestock and poultry markets saw remarkably delinking pork prices and low-level fluctuations of poultry prices. in the first half of 2021, the marketing rate of hogs rose 34% year-on-year, and fixed-point monitoring results at the end of the first half of the year showed that 11 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd the fertile sows on hand grew 30% year-on-year, hogs on hand grew 29% year-on-year and the prices of hogs fell all the way from 36 Yuan/kg in early 2021 to the lowest point of 12 Yuan/kg in June, a decrease of over 60%, even falling back to the low levels before this pork price cycle began ascending in March 2019 for a time. In terms of the poultry business, the rising market condition in 2018 and 2019 resulted in industry overcapacity, as the grandparental breeding hens on hand, parental breeding hens on hand and sales volume of commercial-generation baby chicken across the country in the first half of 2021 were all sustained at the highest levels in the past six years. On the side of consumption, the rapidly declining pork prices coupled with weakened consumption demand caused by the COVID-19 allowed poultry meat prices to remain low for a long period of time, making it more difficult for the poultry business to profit. Risk countermeasures: apart from the impact of sporadic epidemics, the fluctuations in prices of livestock and poultry mainly depend on the periodic increase and decrease in breeding and supply quantities. As a result, the process of livestock and poultry prices going down itself is a process of the survival of the fittest in the industry. Against this backdrop, the company still can generate more revenue or suffer fewer losses than its rivals in the process of pric e decline as long as it increases its breeding efficiency and makes its breeding costs lower than its rivals. When some participants exit, the total supply declines and the prices rise again, the company might gain a greater market share and a higher 12 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd return on investment than before. In recent years, the company has been committed to continuously increasing its breeding efficiency, and enjoying industry leadership in terms of production of healthy young breeding poultry and PSY and full cost of pig breeding, which will ensure that the company will remain highly competitive during the price fall of livestock and poultry. Although the company’s rapid scale expansion on its pig business in the past year caused some of its competitiveness to be diluted temporarily, and some best practices failed to be replicated in time at newly commissioned pig farms, along with the company’s full transition to a stage of robust operation, the company is gradually improving its business operation efficiency, reducing farming costs and restoring its original competitiveness by enhancing its internal management capabilities through many measures. On the other hand, unlike most of agricultural and livestock companies, the company has slaughtering and food processing business at the downstream part of farming and feed business at the upstream part of farming, which happens to hedge against the farming process. The price decline of livestock and poultry means that the cost of raw meat in the slaughtering and processing businesses falls too and its profit margin will be increased; the declining prices of livestock and poultry also mean the farming volume of livestock and poultry is at high levels, which also helps increase the profitability of feed business. Such an industry chain presence can moderately mitigate the effects of declining prices of livestock and poultry on the company. IV. Impact of environmental protection policies 13 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd In 2014, China started implementing the Regulations on Pollution Prevention for Large-scale Breeding of Livestock and Poultry, as the government was strongly determined to keep livestock farms in line and new regulations were enacted across the country to demolish livestock farms, ban or restrict livestock farming activities. At the level of central government, the new “Environmental Protection Law” was enacted in 2015; in 2016, the State Council issued the “13th Five-Year” Ecological Environment Protection Program”, even more specifically requiring “local governments to close or relocate livestock farms (communities) and breeding households within the banned areas according to law by the end of 2017”. In 2018, the first group of central environmental protection inspectors conducted the “follow-up reexaminations”, as the efforts to investigate pollution caused by livestock farms were intensified across the country, ordering some breeding households to shut down for environmental remediation or close once for all due to their livestock farming facilities failing to meet the environmental standards or discharging wa stewater beyond the set standards. These pressures from the environmental protection policies will force some livestock and poultry farms failing to meet the environmental standards to exit the market, and lead to reduced breeding quantities, which impacted on the growth of feed business of the company and its acquisition of hogs and poultry for slaughtering business. Some branches and subsidiaries of the company fail to meet the environmental protection requirements economically through hardware transformation, or no longer have 14 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd the market basis due to being located in the banned areas, which will lead to their shutdown. In the long run, however, the exit of these outdated capacities for incompliance with environmental standards will allow the best-run producers that remain in the industry to acquire higher profitability, which is still of a positive significance to the entire industry. Risk countermeasures: in light of the changes of the breeding market, the company makes every effort to maintain existing customers, and strengthens its cooperation with medium and large-sized farms and farmers that meet the environmental standards by changing its feed marketing model and making full use of its industrialized supporting and integrated services . While exploring a new way of breeding, the company regards ecology, environmental protection, efficiency and safety as primary considerations in its project design, helps farmers remodel and build sheds and stalls that meet the higher environmental standards, increase the profitability of breeding business and actively drive the domestic livestock and poultry farming industry to grow healthily. On the other hand, the company actively grows its inventories by cultivating new livestock and poultry farming bases in environmentally suitable areas through construction, acquisition, joint venture and cooperation using its existing business portfolio across the country, thus ensuring the stability of its breeding resources. V. Risk of food safety Food safety concerns the physical health and life safety of the general public, 15 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd and is even a matter of life and death for food companies. Occurrence of food safety problems or accidents would cause food companies to face claims, actions or related penalties in a way that even affects their brands and reputations, thereby materially adversely affecting their business, financial condition, stock prices or business performance. The implementation of the revised “Food Safety Law” in 2015 also means that China has brought its focus on food safety to an unprecedented level. The outbreak of ASF in 2018 raised even more demanding requirements for food safety control. Although the ASF itself is not a zoonotic disease and the pork with ASF virus is not harmful at all to humans after conventional heating and cooking, as there is not yet fully effective containment measure against ASF at present, and the pork and its products are one of the main vectors of the virus, more costs are required to prevent and control ASF during the process of hog recovery and slaughter, pork transportation and vending. In 2019, the State Council issued the “Opinions on Deepening Reforms and Strengthening Food Safety Efforts”, making clear the need to further beef up food safety efforts and ensure the “safety on the dining table” of the general public with the most rigorous standards, the most stringent oversight, the most severe penalties and the most serious accountability. Risk countermeasures: the company has always been highly concerned about food safety by seriously ensuring food safety in each link of its business practices. In 2015, the company established its safety and environmental protection department to ensure safety, health and environmental protection of 16 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd its products, and upgraded the equipment in its “three-level” testing system, expanded the laboratories of its branches and subsidiaries in terms of human and material resources, guaranteed the allocation and input of funds, resources and personnel across the food industry chain, which upgraded the food safety organization management, equipment and facilities, process management and key process control., So far, the company has created a food safety control chain from feed, livestock and poultry breeding all the way to dining table. In 2014, the “Beiyouzi” branded duck meat produced by the company was the first in China to achieve end-to-end traceability; in 2015, Chengdu Xiwang Food Co., Ltd, a subsidiary of the company, became one of the second group of pilot companies for implementation of the national standard of “food cold chain logistics traceability management requirements”. In 2016, the company passed the food technical standard certification by the British Retail Council (BRC), and was elected the Vice President of the China Council at the first plenary session of the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) in China, becoming the first Chinese private enterprise to be selected as a member of the global board of directors of GFSI. In 2019, the 8th GFSI Focus Day China organized by the company was held, marking the first time a private enterprise organized this event since GFSI began holding the Focus Day China in 2012. At present, all food businesses of the company have passed China-HACCP certification, and more than 60 food companies are finishing the BRC and Global-GAP certifications in succession. In addition, the company systematically explores the 17 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd antibiotic-reducing and antibiotic-free possibilities in cooperation with multiple parties using the GFSI platform resources, and actively drives the popularization of antibiotic-reducing and antibiotic-free successful cases. VI. Risk of exchange rate fluctuations Currently, the global purchasing of raw materials for feed production is going deeper, and the feed enterprises have been increasingly affected by the exchange rate in terms of feed ingredients purchasing centered on foreign supply such as corn, soybean, whey powder, fish meal and DDGS. At the same time, the company has larger foreign operations than its Chinese peers, and in the foreign investment and overseas operations, the cross-border capital transaction and settlement amounts involved are growing, thus making the company more vulnerable to exchange rate fluctuations. Since 2019, the bumpy China -US relations caused the RMB/USD exchange rate to fluctuate frequently. Throughout 2020, the RMB exchange rate showed a trend of fall before rise and went down in a zigzag manner due to the impact of the COVID-19 in the first half of the year, but a new round of rapid appreciation started as China was the first to contain the pandemic and resumed work and business operations at a quickened pace in the second half of the year. Such violent turbulences produced impacts on the foreign exchange management of the company. Besides, in certain overseas countries where the company operates, the exchange rate of local currencies against USD depreciated remarkably due to the COVID -19, political turbulence, and foreign exchange policy adjustments, which also 18 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd produced an adverse impact on the company. Risk countermeasures: In response to the growing needs for overseas raw material purchasing and investment and operation, the company started building its Singaporean branch into an overseas commercial and trading center and investment and financing center in 2016, actively conduc ted international centralized purchasing of raw materials, foreign direct financing, supply chain finance, foreign exchange risk management and raw materials purchasing risk management on its Singaporean platform, in order to reduce the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on its cash flow in overseas operations. Meanwhile, the company further strengthened its close connection and communication with overseas financial institutions, overseas agencies of the Chinese government and host governments to analyze the trends of local currencies’ exchange rates in host countries in time and ease the adverse impact of exchange rate fluctuations by means of direct investment in local currencies abroad, etc. VII. Risk of human resources The risk of human resources to the company is mainly manifested in the following four aspects. First, the pig farming scale of the company is now at a phase of leapfrog development. As at the end of the first half of 2021, the company’s pig farming team totaled 46,000 persons, and management radius of the company also increased as a result, therefore, there are tremendous pressures and challenges in terms of rapidly training and retaining a large number of qualified pig farming workers. If the personnel recruitment, training 19 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd and retention prove inadequate, potential risks will arise for the subsequent pig farm management and operation. Second, as the company transforms from a traditional agricultural and animal husbandry enterprise to a agricultural, animal husbandry and food integrated enterprise, the company will face the risk of insufficient reserve of high-caliber operation and management personnel in new business domains and of personnel in food retail, engineering technology, IT and other emerging fields. Third, along with the rising human cost, employee compensation has become an important factor in cost increase of the company. Fourth, as a leading enterprise in China’s agricultural and animal husbandry industry, the company has cultivated a large number of outstanding employees in its multiyear history, but the competition for human resources is intensifying due to the increasing competition in the industry and entry of new players of different backgrounds into the industry over the past years, meaning the brain drain will cause losses to the company and subsequently affect the sustainable development of the company. Risk countermeasures: the company has looked at talent cultivation and organizational activation as a long-term strategic task of the company. In terms of recruiting talented pig farmers, the company expanded its recruitment channel beyond college graduates majored in agriculture and animal husbandry to recruit non-specialized college graduates and veterans. In terms of pig farmer training, the company broke down daily production processes according to standards and internalized them using IT means. It offers specialized courses of 20 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd different levels for general manager, farm managers all the way down to the newly recruited frontline workers through in-house pig farming universities and pig industry research institutes that offer high-frequency learning, training and teaching possibilities. Moreover, through the modern apprenticeship system inside pig farms and one-to-one mentoring and reinforcement by sophisticated employees, the time to cultivate new employees has been greatly shortened. The company further perfected its pig industry talent motivation system, whereby personnel at all levels in pig industry will receive industry-leading economic return based on their value output. In addition, in order to reduce the pressure on human cost, the company intensified its efforts to carry out projects such as pig farming in multistory buildings, intelligent pig farms and things of internet, which will significantly increase its effic iency of personnel utilization. The company also intensified its efforts to recruit talented people in strategic, new businesses, while actively conducting cross-industry training and learning to enrich the knowledge structure and capability structure of its existing personnel. The company realized a continuous increase in per capita efficiency by efficiency improvement, lean management, optimization of industry chain design and organization flattening; created the professional manager development channel with survival of the fittest by constructing the competition, selection and elimination mechanisms; and creates the growth community of employees and the company by constructing reasonable evaluation and incentive mechanisms and value sharing mechanisms. In 2019, 21 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd the company implemented its restricted stock and stock option incentive plan for the first time to motivate its key technologists and key members of pig farming teams more for increased cohesion and corporate competiveness and to fully motivate senior management personnel a part of key employees of the company at work. The company plans not to distribute cash dividends or allot bonus shares or transfer its capital reserve to share capital. 22 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd Table of contents Section 1 Important Note, Table of Contents and Definitions........................................................ 2 Section 2 Company Profile and Key Financial Indicators ........................................................... 26 Section 3 Manage ment Discussion and Analysis ........................................................................... 29 Section 4 Corporate Governance .................................................................................................... 72 Section 5 Environmental and Social Responsibilities ................................................................... 75 Section 6 Significant Events .......................................................................................................... 181 Section 7 Changes in Shares and Information about Shareholders .......................................... 222 Section 8 Details related to Preferred Shares .............................................................................. 232 Section 9 Details related to Corporate Bonds .............................................................................. 233 Section 10 Financial Report .......................................................................................................... 237 23 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd List of Reference Documents (I) Financial statements signed and stamped by the chief executive officer, person in charge of accounting and head of accounting organization (chief accountant) of the company.

Main operating activities of the company during the reporting period The main businesses that the company operates include feed, white-feathered poultry, pig farming and food processing and distribution. (I) Feed business Feed can be classified into three main categories, and they are premix, concentrates and compound feed according to the nutritional ingredients contained. Premix feed is the mixture of various nutritional additives such as vitamin, mineral substa nce and amino acid; feed concentrate is with further addition of various animal and vegetable proteins into premix feed; compound feed is the combination of feed concentrate and additional energy-based raw materials. In terms of the final nutritional needs and formulation, the amount of nutritional additives required is small but its per-unit value is high, and the energy-based raw materials have a low unit value but the quantity required is signicant, while the protein-based raw materials fall between the two when it comes to per-unit value and quantity requirement. Among 250 million tons of feeds nationwide in 2020, the premix feed only accounted for about 2.4%, and the concentrated feed about 6%, and the compound feed more than 91%. What is produced by the vast majority of feed produc ers is compound feed. Large companies have large demands for premix feed and concentrated feed due to their large outputs of compound feed, so they generally would produce premix feed and concentrated feed themselves. The small and medium-sized companies only produce compound feed due to the smaller scale of their operations, and they purchase required premix or concentrated feed from large feed businesses or other independent premix producers. Some farmers of considerable scale would also purchase premix or concentrated feed directly, and then blend it with protein-based and energy-based raw materials for their own use on farm. The feed business of the company covers premix and concentrated feed as well as compound feed, of which the premix and concentrated feed are sold directly to external customers as well as comfound feed plants that are internal to the business. The feed can also be divided into poultry feed, swine feed, aquaculture feed, and ruminant feed according to animal species. Among the feed yield nationwide in 2020, the poultry feed, swine feed, aquaculture feed and ruminant feed accounted for 50%, 35%, 8% and 5% respectively. The scope of the company’s feed business covers all the aforementioned categories. As the company has a downstream business of raising white-feathered poultry and pigs, the poultry feed and swine feed produced by the company are made available to downstream contract farmers and in-house livestock farms in addition to being sold to external customers. The aquaculture feed and ruminant feed produced by the company are sold to external markets. The main parts of feed business operations include technology development, raw material procurement, production and processing, and sales service, usually simply referred to as “technology, procurement, production and sales” . The interaction between technology and procurement is the closest. This is because the raw material cost of feed products accounts for 80-90% of selling price, and the ability to procure raw materials at a competitive cost is one of key success factors. However, the raw material procurement should take the nutritional needs into account, rather than only considering the cost. There are hundreds of raw material types, resulting in thousands of combinations and feed formulae. Companies need to design the most cost-effective formula that meets the specific nutritional needs according to the nutrient contents and costs of different raw materials at a given time, thereby making appropriate procurement decisions. The production and processing parts mainly focus on production efficiency and product quality. The sales service part mainly focuses on business development and maintenance, sells customized products to different customer groups, helps farmer households enhance the breeding performance through additional services, optimizes the cost and efficiency of the distribution process, and feeds back customer needs and product problems to the technology research and development department in time to form good interactions. In recent years, the domestic feed industry has entered the mature stage, as the growth rate of national feed yield from 2015 to 2020 was 1.4%, 4.5%, 5.9%, 2.8% and -3.7% and 10.4% respectively on a year-on-year basis. With the steadily growing total 29 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd quantity, the feeds for different animal species would show different growth trends due to different impacts of long-term, intermediate term as well as short industry-specific cycles. The long cycle refers to the cycle of industrial upgrading and technical progress, for example, the poultry feed with a higher degree of downstream large scale farming, a higher pene tration rate of compound feed and relatively more mature technology has slower overall growth than the swine feed and aquaculture feed in recent years. The intermediate term cycle refers to the cycle of supply-demand relation and price changes of livestock and poultry products, as the periodic increase and decrease in breeding quantity of a particular type of animal downstream will affect the increase and decrease of sales volume of the corresponding feed type upstream. The short cycle refers to the natural disasters and animal epidemics that affect specific animals. For example, H7N9 flu affected poultry feed in the first half year of 2017, and African swine fever (ASF) has a significant impact on swine feed from the mid-2018 up to now. Another good example is natural disaster including the rainstorms and floods in the southern China that affected the aqua feed market in 2017, and. In 2019, under the influence of ASF, the swine feed output nationwide decreased by 26.6% year-on-year. In 2020, the Chinese government actively encouraged the recovery of pig farming and swine feed output rose again as, by 16.4% year-on-year, reaching 86% of the level of 2018. In the first half of 2021, swine feeds bounced back across the board, rising by more than 70% year-on-year and beyond the pre-ASF levels. The competition has become increasingly fierce as the industry matures. On one hand, each company has a solid position in their existing business and specialty and strives to innovate. On the other hand, they are extending their business across the industry chain to optimize their strategic positioning. In terms of technology research and development, has given rise to the development of bio-environmentally friendly feeds, while aquaculture feed is being upgraded from sinking granulated feed to floating expanded feed. In other feed categories, more specialised feed types and formulae have emerged that are specific to the various phases of feeding. In terms of raw materials procurement, companies continuously explore new raw materials and are looking to achieve a more diversified mix. While for the traditional commodity type of materials , businesses, through various means including strategic partnership, equity investment and in-house operations, to secure the production capacity of their upstream production sites, and the procurement of those materials is also aided with big data, futures and other financial instruments to improve efficiency and precision, particularly when it comes to timing. In terms of production and processing, more efficient and agile logistics can support the transportation of a larger radius, thus giving rise to more and more feed factories with larger capacities. Companies then improve efficiency through more centralized large-scale production, while at the same time enhancing the quality through specialized workshops or production lines. In terms of sales service, companies provide various types of value-added services to farmers in addition to selling feed products. Some good examples are technical guidance, animal healthcare & veterinarian services, financing support, information & insights service, and livestock and poultry sales. The value-added services help strengthen the customer relationship, shorten the sales & distribution process, increase the ratio of direct supply, and increase the breeding efficiency and income. In terms of the upstream and downstream extension of the industry chain, companies can expand towards upstream operations like raw material planting and trade , while some expand downstream to incorporate breeding, slaughter or food processing. Due to the difference between pig and poultry industries (see the description in the white-feathered poultry business for details), many of the poultry feed producers extends downstream to include poultry breeding and slaughtering a while back. In comparison to poultry, swine feed producers extends to the pig breeding and slaughtering much later. But in the recent two pork price cycles, such extension is becoming more common, especially in the wake of the ASF. Such extension to the downstream reflects the desire of feed producers to control the downstream breeding and consumer needs, so that they can gain the profits from the downstream while ensuring the upstream feed capacities can be fully utilized. The reason behind this lies in the shift of supply-demand relation across the industry and gradual scale-up of the downstream breeding operations, as the focus of industry value gradually changes from the feed operations in the past to the downstream breeding and food production. Be it the enhancement and innovation of existing business or extension of the upstream and downstream of industry chain, they all need to be supported by the overall competence of companies. Due to greater comprehensive strength, large companies tend to have increasingly obvious advantages in the competition and growing market shares, thus leading to gradual increase in the market concentration. From 2013 to 2019, the toal number of feed producers nationwide dropped to more than 7,800 from more than 10,000, 30 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd while the number of producers with larger per-plant output continuously grew. The total number of producers with annual output of more than 0.1 million tons per plant in 2020 was 749, and is 128 more than the total number in 2019. The combined output of the large produces accounted for 52.8% of the industry’s production, with a year-on-year growth rate of 19.8%, which is above the industry growth rate. The ASF in 2019 had further accelerated the reshuffle and consolidation of the industry. Compared with the large companies, small and medium-sized feed producers are weak in terms of technology, bio-safety and other aspects, and sell their products mostly to family farms and small-scale free-ranging households, the latter of which are more affected by ASF, so that the small and medium-sized feed producers are more affected than their large counterparts. Large companies will face more market spaces after surviving the impact of ASF. The feed business of the company has been the largest in the domestic feed industry for many years, with the poultry feed business ranking first nationwide, swine feed and aquaculture feed ranking among top three nationwide, and ruminant feed also holds a leading position nationwide. The company leads the industry to embrace the changes by relying on its leading position, and strengthens its product power, purchasing power, productivity and service ability constantly, by launching biological environment-friendly feed and antibiotic-free feed, eliminating the outdated capacities, and building high-output benchmarking plants. On this basis, it actively pursues business extension accross industry chain and explores transformation and upgrading of its business model. On one hand, we make full use of the downstream industry chain foundation, actively develop the integrated projects of feed – breeding – slaughter, actively invest in and acquire food-related operations, and they have steadily promote our transformation from a feed producer to a breeder and food producer. On the other hand, the company was the first in the industry to launch the project of “everything flourishing” (poultry flourishing, pig flourishing, fish flourishing, cattle flourishing, s heep flourishing) to provide technical and financial services to farmers, as well as the swine managemenet service targeting large pig farms. We set up breeding training management companies or breeding service companies to facilitate the direct engagement wit h large farms or farmers, and in the meantime, we also develop our financing guarrantee services steadily, and the two operations jointly promote the development of feed business. (II) White-feathered poultry business The white-feathered poultry refers to large white-feathered broilers and white-feathered meat ducks, characterized by short growth cycle and high feed conversion ratio. More than 4 billion white-feathered broilers and about 3 billion white-feathered meat ducks are slaughtered in China every year, and with another 3 billion yellow-feathered broilers, they make up the main source of poultry meat consumption in China. The white-feathered poultry business includes breeding poultry propagation, commercial generation poultry breeding, poultry slaughter, and processed poultry meat. As the large-scale and industrial development of white-feathered poultry industry started early and is now highly mature in China, coupled with the fact that the number of single slaughtering batch of white-feathered poultry bred is large, it generally needs to work with the large-scale slaughter operations. Therefore, numerous companies tend to fully intergrate the end-to-end industry chain in their operations, “poultry feed – commercial poultry breeding – poultry slaughter” or what it is called in the market, “a fully integrated model”. A small number of large companies would also further extend in the breeding poultry upstream and prepared poultry meat downstream respectively, so as to form a more complete industry chain. The breeding poultry propagation operations can be divided into breeding and breeder farming. Breeding refers to selective breeding of high intergenerational good stock, while breeding poultry farming refers to expanding propagation of good breeds selected, and output of commercial generation baby chicks and baby ducks. The breeding part has very high technological complexity and needs long-term research and development accumulation. At present, it is mostly controlled by foreign pountry breeding techonology companies, although some domestic leading companies have made breakthroughs in recent years, by developing chickens and duck breeds that are of their own proprietary intellectual property. It is much more technologically sophisticated than the commercial breeding, and it requires significant capital investment, particularly when it comes to breeding poultry farms and breeding egg hatcheries, so it is generally invested and accomplished by companies instead of individual farmers. As for the domestic white-feathered poultry industry, in terms of breeding poultry, great grandparent is introduced mostly from foreign specialized breeding poultry companies, before carrying out the expanding propagation of grandparents and parents in China, 31 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd and then outputting the commercial generation baby chicks and baby ducks. However, as for particular companies, it mainly consists of two categories. Most companies still focus on the downstream of the industry, especially the commercial generation breedin g and slaughter, and extend the upstream breeding poultry cultivation only to the parent generation, and output the commercial generation baby chicks and baby ducks for self use, although some of them will further extend to the grandparent generations for breeding. A small number of specialized breeding poultry companies lay particular emphasis on the upstream, focus on introducing fine varieties from abroad, and sell the baby chicks and baby ducks after expanding propagation in China, without getting involved in the commercial generation breeding. There are two main models involved in the commercial generation breeding, i.e., integrated company-run breeding and breeding through cooperation between company and farmer households. The integrated company-run breeding means the commercial generation chicken and duck breeding is run by a company itself, who ultimately slaughters and sells the chicken and ducks; the breeding through cooperation between company and farmer households means a company provides or sells commercial generation baby chicken and ducks to farmer households and ultimately recovers the adult chickens and ducks for slaughtering. According to the settlement mode and the ownership of chickens and ducks as agreed in the contract, i.e. whether chickens and ducks are owned by the company or farmer households, or whether the baby chicken and ducks are provided or sold by the company to farmer households, the company-farmer cooperative breeding can be further divided into traditional contract breeding model and outsourced breeding model. Whether a company chooses to run the commercial generation breeding on its own or not is related to the technical attributes of this operation. Due to shorter growth cycle and faster turnover speed of the poultry than those of pigs, the fa rming technology for the poultry is less technically difficult than pig farming, and the single-farm investment threshold is also relatively low. Thus, the domestic poultry farming industry started earlier and is more mature and larger than the pig farming industry. As a result, during the process of commercial ge neration breeding alone, there is usually no obvious difference in technology and efficiency between companies and farmer households. The significance of companies choosing to operate commercial generation breeding alone lie more in higher requirements raised by the downstream food industry, i.e. the upstream breeding operations are controllable from the beginning to end so as to ensure the food safety. However, in recent years, stricter environmental regulation has br ought new changes, as some commercial generation breeding companies or farmer households have to limit or stop production activities or even exit the industry due to being located in banned areas or incompliance with environmental standards despite being locate d in areas restricted or suitable for breeding. Therefore, the existing participants or new entrants in the industry must first ensure they operate in the areas suitable for breeding, and then need to input more resources in the sheds, environmental protection and other aspects. In order to adopt new environment-friendly technologies and sheds, even those companies sticking to the “company + farmer” cooperative breeding model also need to build some sheds, adopt new technology and then play a demonstrative role by running breeding operations themselves before popularizing them to farmers. The capital investment in the poultry slaughter part is huge and is generally accomplished by companies. As described earlier , most poultry slaughtering plants would form the industry chain complementation with the upstream poultry breeding and even poultry feed operations, focus on or preferentially recover the commercial generation chickens or ducks raised by themselves alone or in cooperation with farmer households, but in some areas, the commercial generation chickens or ducks bred and sold by independent farmers in the market would also be flexibly recovered in consideration of reducing the raw material costs and operating costs based on the market quotations. At the same time, there are some poultry slaughter companies in the industry who possess no breeding facilities and feed upstream, but purely rely on recovering the commercial generation chickens or ducks in the marke t for slaughtering, thus making profits by acquiring at a low price and selling at a high price, and by taking advantage of the incomplete synchronization between the quotations of commercial generation chicken and duck markets and those of chicken and duck meat markets. But such business model is unstable, and many companies often suffer great losses due to misjudgment of market quotations. As poultry farming in China is more mature and large-scaled than pig farming, the poultry industry did not see apparent trends of greater corporate investment in place of household farming in recent years like the pig industry did. What’s more commonly seen is the normal industry cycle or ups and downs caused by unexpected epidemic factors, leading to capacity expansion and reduct ion of 32 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd companies and large-scaled farmer households to varying degrees, but the overall industry structure and market shares of leading players remain stable compared with the pig industry. An effect that materially affected the industry structure in recent ye ars is the strict environmental regulation in summer of 2017, where demolition of a large number of breeding sheds for substandard environmental protection facilities and drastically reduced capacities of poultry breeding resulted in the capacity shortage of poultry breeding since 2018 and the rising prices and profit recovery in terms of poultry breeding. The shortage of pork caused by ASF drove the alternative supply of poultry meat since the beginning of 2019. Although the poultry breeding quantities have been at a h igher level than the past years, the poultry industry was in a booming state with high prices and profitability throughout the year. But along with the gradual stabilization of the ASF situation, the hog capacities nationwide bounced back gradually, which, coupled with the weakened demand due to the COVID-19, caused the poultry cycle to show apparent downward trends faster than pork price cycle, as the prices of commercial generation baby chicken and baby ducks started falling remarkably after peaking for recent two years in 2019, by 64% and 72% respectively in 2020,and the prices of baby chicken and baby ducks showed different situations in the first half of 2021 by falling by 5.73% year-on-year and rising by 101% year-on-year respectively, as opposed to a 8% and 13% increase in prices of non-slaughtered chicken and ducks year-on-year. Therefore, the white-feathered poultry industry still needs to improve all parts of the industry chain in order to overcome the impact of cyclic fluctuations of poultry. In the short run, the important opportunities for the industry is to accommodate the requirements of environmental protection upgrading and actively control commercial generation breeding bases that meet the environmental requirements, starting with environment-friendly renovations and shed upgrading, thereby realizing control over supply quantity and cost, food safety and production rhythm of commercial generation breeding operations; in the long run, the industry still needs the synergy between breeding and slaughtering operations, so a s to realize the channel upgrading on the sales end and enable high-standard input in the breeding operations to obtain a higher-premium return in the poultry meat sales. In terms of breeding poultry propagation, the company is the largest supplier of parental baby ducks and the second largest supplier of commercial generation baby chicks and baby ducks in , enjoying industry leading technologies especially in the field of breeding duck propagation. The company cooperates with the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and elaborately selected and bred the “Zhongxin” Beijing Duck in view of the characteristics of domestic consumption of ducks, which received the certificate of new breed of livestock and poultry (complete set line) issued by China National Commission of Animal Genetic Resources in April 2019, followed by official marketing. Part of baby chicks of the company are sold to other vendors, and the other part are used for its downstream commercial generation breeding. The baby ducks are mainly used for the downstream commer cial generation breeding of the company. In the first half of 2021, the company furthered its digital management of breeding poultry and continued enhancing its industry competitiveness in cost, quality and technology research and development of baby chickens and baby ducks. In terms of commercial generation breeding, the company currently focuses on the “company + farmer household” cooperative breeding model, and is upgrading from the traditional contract breeding model to the outsourced breeding model, while gradually intensifying its efforts of in-house, integrated commercial generation breeding in areas where conditions permit. The ownership of commercial generation chickens and ducks in the outsourced breeding model and in-house integrated breeding model belongs to the company and is charged to its production and sales volume of poultry breeding. The total quantity of commercial generation ch icken and ducks bred in the aforesaid two models has exceeded 440 million. In terms of the source of baby poultry, the outsourced breeding and in-house integrated breeding operations would first choose the baby poultry produced by the company, while the company also purchases baby poultry from other vendors in the traditional contract breeding model. In term of poultry slaughter, the company has been ranking first in the industry for many years with its annual slaughtering quantity of about 750 million poultries and poultry meat production and sales volume of about 2 million tons every year. The “Liuhe” branded poultry meat under the flag of the company was the designated poultry meat for Shanghai World Expo 2010 and the Qingdao Summit of Shanghai Cooperation Organization Qingdao 2018, enjoying a strong brand influence. Due to large production and sales volumes, the poultry meat slaughtered and produced by the company has been sold mainly through the traditional trade mode of wholesale markets for a long time. The wholesale market channel can help digest the enormous yields upstream, but is detrimental to 33 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd establishing the brand image and gaining a larger value space for the poultry meat products of the company in the long run. Therefore, the company has been vigorously advancing the poultry slaughter business to implement the strategic transformation since 2014, by intensifying the short-distance fresh product sales, and expanding the connection with multiple emerging channels such as downstream food processors, supermarket chains, and restaurant chains, reducing its dependence on wholesale market channel, a nd promoting the channel upgrading. (III) Pig farming business The pig farming has much in common with poultry breeding in various intergenerational production processes, i.e. division of work between domestic and overseas companies. The pig farming business includes breeding pig propagation and commercial pig fattening. The breeding pig propagation can be subdivided into breeding and breeding pig farming. Breeding specifically refer s to selection and breeding of high intergenerational good stock, while breeding pig farming refers to further expanding propagation of original breeding pigs, and output of boar semen, sows, and commercial generation piglets. The breeding of pigs also needs long-term research and development accumulation due to very high technological complexity. At present, it is mostly controlled by foreign specialized breeding pig companies, although some leading companies in China have made breakthroughs in recent years. However, most domestic companies only introduce the great grandparental pigs from foreign suppliers and carry out the expanding propagation of grandparents and parents in China, without setting foot in the upstream breeding operations. In this regard, some of them are specialized breeding pig companies, who directly sell the breeding pigs and piglets to other companies after expanding propagation of great grandparental pigs introduced abroad, without setting foot in the commercial generation breeding. Some other cases are extension made by large commercial generation pig companies towards the breeding pig cultivation operations upstream in order to ensure in-house availability of breeding pigs and piglets, with the parental breeding pigs and commercial generation piglets produced for their own use. To ensure availability of piglets to themselves, some farmer households would also participate in the parental breeding operations, i.e. they purchase the parental sows and boar semen from companies and then propagate piglets themselves. This is different from the fact that the farmer households only breed the commercial generation poultry in the poultry farming, instead of breeding poultry. Even so, more and more farmer households are exiting from the parental breeding operations gradually. This is mainly because the large companies engage in large-scale and intensive piglet production along with development of the breeding technologies, demonstrating obvious efficiency differences compared with the piglet breeding by farmer households themselves. This is embodied in the most common indicator PSY in the industry. In years before the ASF outbreak, the average PSY of the entire industry was about 17, PSY of large companies is generally over 20, and the average PSY of self propagation and self breeding by farmer households is about 15. After the ASF outbreak, due to the impacts of the epidemic and extensive use of ternary sows resulting from rapid recovery of production, the PSY of the entire industry in the past two years decreased a whole, but the difference in this regard between major companies and farmer households still exists. During the fattening process of commercial pigs, companies are also considerably different from with the farmers in technology and efficiency, but such difference in ef ficiency is not as large as it is in the piglet production operations. Coupled with the fact that self-built fattening farms also require additional huge investments of fixed assets, which are detrimental to rapid asset-light expansion, large companies engaged in breeding and piglet production and farmer households focused on the fattening process constitute an allocation with the optimal efficiency formed so far in the industry. There are also two main models in the commercial pig fattening process, i.e., in-house integrated breeding and “company + farmer household” cooperative breeding. The in-house integrated breeding means the commercial generation pig fattening is run entirely by a company itself. The “company + farmer household” cooperative breeding means a company provides or sells commercial generation piglets to farmer households, who fatten the piglets. This is somewhat different from poultry breeding, i.e. it focuses on outsourced breeding model under the “company + farmer household” cooperative model, whereby piglets are provided t o farmer households by a company, and the ownership of piglets and hogs remains with the company, which recovers the hogs after completion of the fattening process. Or alternatively, a company directly sells commercial generation piglets to farmer house holds, but is not responsible for hog recovery, i.e. the traditional contract breeding model of selling baby chicks and baby ducks and then recovering in the poultry breeding exists less. Similarly, the question of whether companies choose to operate the commercial pig 34 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd fattening process themselves or not is related to the technical attribute of this operation. During the process of commercial pig fattening, the difference in efficiency between companies and farmers is not as large as it is in the piglet production effic iency at the present stage. Meanwhile, the large investment in in-house fattening affects the return on investment. Therefore, when numerous companies invested in the pig farming industry in recent years, especially at the early stage where they compete for market s hares, the vast majority of them first chose the “company+ farmer household” cooperative farming mode l, i.e, they invested first in breeding capacities instead of fattening capacities, although the fully integrated in-house fattening model is still less frequently used at the current stage. On the other hand, influenced by the ASF epidemic in recent years, numerous free -range farming households find it relatively difficult to achieve good containment results due to limited access to equipment and facilities, thus posing a higher bio-safety risk. Best-run companies using the integrated in-house farming model in the industry can realize epidemic containment better than household farming to a certain extent through fine management of the in-house fattening operations. Although companies adopting the “company + farmer household” cooperative farming model would help cooperative households with equipment and facility upgrading to varying degrees, such upgrading is after all not as convenient as that of self-run fattening farms; moreover, there are a growing number of automated and IT-enabled equipment emerging that can help reduce costs in long term, these new equipment and technologies are easier to adopt and implement in company-run fattening farms than in cooperative fattening farms of farmer households. Coupled with the gradual elapse of the early stage of competition for market shares and gradual stabilizat ion of the industry structure, major companies shifted their attention again to continuously reducing costs in the long run. These factors made major companies generally willing to subsequently increase the ratio of in-house fattening operations. The biggest difference between pig breeding and poultry breeding is the degree of vertical integration towards the downstream slaughtering operations. Due to the smaller batches of pigs to be slaughtered than those of poultry to be slaughtered, the small slaughtering houses are capable to do the job, resulting in little motivation to develop pig breeding business in para llel with large-scale industrial pig slaughtering business at the early stage of development. Regardless of whether purchasing sows from pig breeding companies for self propagation and self breeding or directly purchasing piglets, farmer households can choose to contact pig vendors for sale after completion of fattening, before pig vendors sell to slaughtering plants or small slaughter houses. Eve n though the ratio of large-scale breeding has been increasing in recent years, the annual slaughter scale of breeding clusters of large companies mostly ranges from 300,000 to 500,000 pigs, as opposed to the annual capacity of at least 1 million pigs of large -scale slaughtering plants. At present, after fattening of commercial pigs, large companies still have to se ll a large proportion of pigs to pig vendors, although they can sell a limited number of pigs directly to slaughtering plants. Thus, most of the domestic pig bree ding companies and pig slaughter companies develop their business independently nowadays. Due to the longer cycle of pig breeding, the pig breeding has more obvious and stable cyclic characteristics than poultry breeding. A “pork price cycle” is generally 3-5 years, which has been gradually extended as pig breeding companies and farming households have been growing in size over the past years and became more capable to sustain their business during the trough period. Since 2006, China experienced three complete cycles and is currently experiencing the fourth cycle. The present cycle started in the mid-2018, and in the first half of 2018, the entire industry saw the lowest pork prices since 2011 due to the capacity expansion in the previous pork price cycle. In the second half of 2018, the serious ASF broke out in, causing losses to both pig breeding companies and farmers to varying degrees. Under the dual impact of depressed market and epidemics, this round of expansion investment has been slowing down, with some companies even stopping expanding. In 2019, when the ASF remained rampant and relevant va ccines and effective treatments are still not available in the industry so far, companies and small and medium-sized farming households continued exiting the industry and only those large companies with good bio-safety track records were capable to expand their business, which led to a sharp reduction in the industry capacity. The swine livestock on hand at the end of 2019 fell by 27. 5%, and the number of hogs marketed in 2019 fell by 21.6%. After the hog prices exceeded a historic high of 40 Yuan/kg in the second half of 2019, the prices remain relatively high above 30 Yuan/kg for a long period of time. Since 2020, while accumulating certain bio-safety control experience, companies pursued large-scale capacity expansions, further recovering the basic production capacity in the hog industry. By the end of 2020, the hogs and fertile sows in stock across the country increased remarkably from the end of the previous year, as hogs in stock reached 407 million, 31.0% up from the end of 2019, and fertile sows in stock reached 41.61 million, 35.1% up 35 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd from the end of 2019. In the first half of 2021, hog supply continued rising remarkably, as the marketing rate of hogs grew by 34% year-on-year in the first half of the year and fixed-point monitoring results of the first half of the year showed that the fertile sows in stock grew by 30% year-on-year and hogs in stock grew by 29% year-on-year, to 439 million. The increased supply drove the prices to fall remarkably, as the hog prices fell all the way from 36 Yuan/kg in early 2021 to the lowest point of 12 Yuan/kg in June, a decrease of over 60%, even falling back to the low levels before this pork price cycle began ascending in March 2019 for a time. The company started late in the pig farming business, but has been insist ing on business development to high standards since starting its pig farming business. Using a highly automated and intensive production mode, the 1 million swine production pro ject financed and implemented by the company in Xiajin of Shandong since 2013 is dedicated to establishing a benchmark in the domestic pig farming industry. In February 2016, the board of directors of the company deliberated and passed the Strategic P lan for Pig Farming Business, starting to greatly develop its pig farming business. Over the past two years, the company invested heavily in pig farming business in order to capitalize on the opportunities arising in the wake of the ASF outbreak. By the end of 2020, the company realized and reserved a capacity portfolio of over 70 million pigs nationwide, in-house fattening capacities of nearly 4 million pigs in stock and live hog sales of 8.29 million pigs throughout the year, allowing the company to maintain its spot among the top listed companies in the country. 1. Farming model of the company’s pig farming business In terms of breeding of breeding pigs, the company has established the PIC and Hypor dual-system breeding pig architecture to select pig breeds suitable for regional markets according to the differences between the markets in north and south.. Meanwhile, the company conducts differentiated allocation of its resources according to market regions, and actively establishes its presenc e in regions where it has comprehensive strengths in terms of consumption, land, environment and logistics to preferentially build pig breeding farms for piglet production. Over the past years, the average PSY of the company’s normal two-way cross-bred sow production has been above 24, an industry-leading figure. In the fattening process of commercial generation, the company gradually built fattening farms according to specific conditions of different regions and projects, and nowadays still focuses on the "company + farmer household" cooperative farming model, supported by in-house integrated farming practices. In 2021, the company’s ratio of integrated in-house farming to cooperative free-range farming was about 1:4. Along with gradual commencement and commissioning of in-house fattening capacities in the second half of 2020, the ratio of integrated in-house farming will gradually increase in the future and the company will realize a business presence centered on integrated in-house farming and supported by “company+ farmer household” cooperative farming. In regions where the comprehensive advantages are not obvious but the company operates swine feed business or has plans to build breeding pig farms but hopes to have suitable cooperative fattening farms that match its free -range farming requirements once commissioned, the company would purchase piglets from other large pig raising companies or specialized breeding pig companies phase by phase, while at the same time adopting cooperative farming mode l, thus achieving collaborative development of its feed business and pig farming business or early development of cooperative farming households. But as the company’s breeding pig farm construction and areas of presence gradually expanded and improved, the company’s piglet acquisit ion business has now fully stopped and piglets used have all been replaced by homegrown piglets. 2. Division of duties in cooperative farming In the cooperative farming, the company and farmers respectively invest different production factors, assume different duties , and share different earnings and risks. In terms of input of production factors, the company is responsible for the input of piglets, feed, veterinary drugs, vaccines, etc., while farmers provide the input of fixed assets such as piggery. In addition, farmers need to pay a breeding deposit and bear the costs of labor, water, electricity and fuel on fattening farms. In terms of division of duties, the company is responsible for piglet supply, feed production, epidemic disease prevention and treatment, breeding technology guidance, collection and sales, while farmers are only responsible for daily feeding and cleaning. In terms of earnings and risks, the company bears the market price risk and enjoys the opportunity profit, while farmers neither bear the market risk nor enjoy the oppor tunity profit. The returns are relative ly stable and not directly related to the market prices, but closely related to the breeding results. In addition, from the perspective of the company, there is a risk that farmers don’t abide by the contract or the company’s guidance, and sell pigs or use medication without authorization. However, as the scale of cooperative farming has been growing and cooperative 36 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd period became longer in recent years, in case of the aforesaid breaches, farmers will bear huge risk of bad faith, and the co mpany will retain the breeding deposit and sue to the court for breach of contract. Therefore, such breaches are becoming increasingly less in real life. 3. Pricing and settlement of the cooperative farming When the company signs the contract of cooperative farming with farmers, a basic unit price is first formed according to the market conditions at that time, which would change appropriately according to the latest market changes at the time of pig re covery and settlement. When fattened pigs reach the marketable weight, they are weighed, and the basic price is formed by the base unit price multiplying the average weight, before the settlement price is adjusted according to the specific weight of each pig that exceeds or fails to reach the ideal weight range, marketing rate (i.e., the survival rate), rate of conforming products, feeding days, total weight gain, end-to-end ratio of feed to pork, daily average weight gain, excessive consumption of feed and the other production indicators, thus deriving the final breeding service fee. 4. Number and structure of cooperative farmers and their changes Before the 2021 Semiannual Report was published, there were 1,975 free-range farming households with pigs on hand in cooperation with the company, 11.83% less than that at the end of 2020. In the farming cooperation in 2021, the company continued optimizing small-sized farmer households and replaced them with larger farmer households for upgrading. Therefore, although the total number of cooperative farmer households fell somewhat from the end of 2020, the average size and quality of farmer households further improved. From the perspective of scale of livestock on hand, farmers each with less than 500 pigs accounted for about 0.76%, 14.24% less than that at the end of 2020; farmers each with 501-1,000 pigs accounted for 24.96%, 11.04% down from that at the end of 2020; farmers each with more than 1,001 pigs accounted for 74.28%, 25.28% higher than that at the end of 2020. From the perspective of farmers' regional distribution, according to the five regions divided by the Ministry of Agriculture for ASF containment, farmers in the north region accounted for about 19%, 3% down from that at the end of 2020; farmers in the ea st region accounted for about 24%, 14% down from that at the end of 2020; farmers in the south central region accounted for about 33%, 15% higher than that at the end of 2020; farmers in the southwest region accounted for about 14%, 2% higher than that at the end of 2020; farmers in the northwest region accounted for about 10%, unchanged from that at the end of 2020. (IV) Food Business The company classified poultry slaughtering as white-feathered poultry business so as to strengthen its interaction with upstream breeding operations. Therefore, its food business only includes pig slaughtering, processed meat products, central kitchen and other segments. Food business is the last stage before the value of agriculture and animal husbandry is embodied on the side of consumption in the form of meat products. Among them, slaughtering, as a typical manufacturing industry, has developed for a long time towards maturity in China. Moreover, due to the slow growth of the downstream meat consumption demand, there is a serious overcapacity of slaughtering for a long time, as the average capacity utilization of slaughter houses of considerable size nationwide is merely about 30%. As previously explained in the description of pig farming business, there is little motivation to develop pig farming business in parallel with large-scale industrial pig slaughtering business at the early stage of the industry Despite the increased ratio of large-scaled farming in recent years, pig farming businesses and pig slaughtering businesses have been developing independently in most cases. From the perspective of slaughtering plants, which often need to collect pigs through pig vendors, they would also face the pressures of short-term shortage of pigs or overcapacity. The government's protection of the production motivation of the breeding industry in rural areas and the stabilization of the consumer prices in urban areas also make the slaughtering industry face the implicit dual price restriction in the upstream acquisition and downstream sales. The occasional happening of livestock a nd poultry epidemics would also cause periodic fear of meat shortage and bring a negative impact to the industry. In addition, as a labor-intensive processing industry, the rising cost of labor further squeezes the profit margin of slaughterhouses. Therefore, the new growth opportunities of the pig slaughtering industry in recent years are to continuously optimize the process to improve the production efficiency and gradually introduce automatic and semi-automatic equipment to replace labor force, when looked at from 37 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd within the industry. From the external perspective, on the one hand, the premium can be increased by improving the product mix, including extending from slaughter and cutting with raw and fresh meat as the final product to the further processing of meat products and even the production of prepared dishes with higher added value, and the shift from sales of frozen meat to that of the chilled fresh meat; on the other hand, it is to improve the sales channels, that is, shifting from the traditional multilevel wholesale channels to direct supply channels of supermarket chains, chain restaurants, food processing enterprises and other key accounts; the opportunities also lie in cooperating with product optimization and channel optimization to strengthen brand building, promote the transformation of unbranded meat into branded meat, and seek a greater presence in sales channels so as to obtain brand premium. In addition, the gradual development of the cold chain logistics industry in China in recent years is also conducive to the sales and direct supply of meat products in a fresher state to supermarkets, restaurants and other channels. The processed meat products and the central kitchen are the downstream parts of slaughtering process, representing the extension from simple slaughter and cutting to the conditioning and processing operations with a higher added value. Compared with the slaughtering part, the processed meat products and central kitchen have higher gross profit rates and relatively stable prices, and have been growing fast in recent years. However, due to longtime habits of Chinese consumers, the purchase of raw meat by Chinese consumers still accounts for a very large proportion, while the ratio of meat products purchased remains relatively small. This means the current overall market space for processed meat products is still limited. In recent years, the focus of food processing companies has been on constantly developing new product forms, changing the consumption structure dominated by ham sausage in the past, creating new consumption scenarios, stimulating more consumer demand for meat products, and expanding the overall market spac e. Central kitchen is a typical direction in the exploration of these new forms and new scenarios. With prepared dishes as the main products and catering companies as the main customers, it helps explore new growth opportunities through such product forms a nd consumption scenarios which are more easily accepted by consumers. Of course, compared with the ordinary processed meat products, central kitchen is more complex in product form, processing technology, preservation technology and supporting logistics, and poses more demanding requirements for business management of companies. In recent years, although numerous companies, especially catering companies, invested in central kitchen, many of them are poorly run and have created excess capacity in this market segment in the short term. On the contrary, food manufacturers can gain unique advantages in the field of central kitchen with their rich experience in factory management and lean production. As hog is the main cost of pig slaughtering, and fresh meat is the main cost of processed meat products and central kitchen, the selling prices of food business would change in the same direction as the prices of hogs, However, due to the alternative consumption of meat food and the government’s efforts to stabilize consumer prices, the price elasticity of meat food is usually smaller than that of hogs. When market prices go up, the food business will also, to a certain degree, bear the pressure of increased slaughtering cost (i.e., purchase prices of hogs) and raw meat cost; especially when the market prices peak, it means hogs are most undersupplied on the markets and not only the slaughtering costs are the highest but also the amortized overheads due to low outputs. From 2017 to 2020, the hogs in stock nationwide at the end of each year were 433 million, 428 million, 310 million and 407 million respectively. So, the entire year of 2020 saw the lowest level of hogs in stock nationwide in recent years, causing considerable cost pressures to downstream industries. The pig slaughtering industry, processed meat products and central kitchen industries still need to flexibly control the inventories and reduce costs in a lean manner. In particular, the slaughtering industry also need to properly acquire hogs while there are minimum hogs on hand, while at the same time paying close attention to the containment of ASF in pork and meat products, in order to really make profits in the seemingly booming market. The company's food business has a certain influence in China, and enjoys a leading position in specific regions. The company's "Kinghey" branded pork was the designated supplier of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the annual sales of "Meihao" branded pork products’ rank the second in four southwest provinces, "Liuhe" branded poultry meat products are sold across the country and the Porridge Jiahe central kitchen business is one of the largest central kitchens in Beijing market. Over the past years, the company gradually opened a segment market of hotpot catering by starting with “Xiao-Su-Rou”deep fried pork slices and other products. Overall, the company's food business and poultry slaughtering business are facing the same challenges of product upgrading and channel upgrading, but unlike its poultry slaughtering business, which is the largest in , the food business also faces the c hallenge of 38 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd cross-regional market development. In these years, the company will also make full use of the existing capacity portfolio and channels of white-feathered poultry, combined with the planned pig farming business, to drive its food business to grow in a larger domestic market and help the company's food brand gradually grow from a local brand to a national one. The company shall comply with the disclosure requirements set forth in “Shenzhen Stock Exchange’s Industry Information Disclosure Guidance No. 1---Listed Companies Engaged in Livestock, Poultry and Aquaculture Businesses”. II. Analysis of core competitiveness (I) The company's core competitiveness in the feed business: Technological legacy coupled with innovative organization and products allows the company to rapidly enhance its scientific research capabilities and bio-safety and performance of products so as to meet the upgraded demand for breeding with a greater power of product. On the basis of scale barrier, the company moves towards specialization and industrialization, while the efficiency increase and cost reduction brought about by accumulated strength are beyond the reach of its competitors, making the moat wider and deeper. 1. Strong bargaining power and resource integration capabilities brought by the largest scale. The larger the scale of feed factory, the lower the production cost per ton, which ensures decreased purchase cost of raw materials, therefore, scale is one of the m ost essential competitive factors in the feed industry. The company's feed sales rank the first in China and the second in the world, and feed production and sales now cover 25 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China. The industry-leading production and sales volume and the extensive market coverage enable the company to connect with domestic and foreign grain busine ss magnates and large channels of the same magnitude, bringing strong bargaining power by virtue of its scale advantage. At the same time, as the largest feed producer in China and one of the largest in the world, the company has easy access to cooperation with multinational magnates, leading companies in other industries and local governments at all levels in various forms, suggesting a salient advantage of resource integration. 2. The technological legacy plus organizational innovation allows the company to continuously improve its scientific research capabilities. Through many years of accumulation, the company now has established the industry's largest feed nutrition and ingredient database, works closely with several raw material suppliers at home and abroad, keeps track of information about quality of feed ingredients nationwide, allowing the company to formulate the optimal combination of nutrition and cost in a timely manner and reduce the negative impact brought by price fluctuation of raw materials. The company's feed research institute now has 69 bachelors, 184 masters and 36 doctors. The company has cutting-edge near infrared detection technology, and has created near infrared databases comprising over 0.46 million sample spectrums, established near infrared analysis models covering 43 categories of feed ingredients, 85 types of complete feed, 26 categories of vitamin premixed feed and 3 types of animal fat. In recent years, the company won 6 national science and technology awards, 20 ministerial, provincial and municipal science and technology awards, and owns 5 national key laboratories or centers, 4 provincial key laboratories or centers and 2 academician (postdoctoral) workstations. The company has successively undertaken over 100 national, provincial and municipal key research and development projects, including “13th five-year plan” key R&D projects of “Construction and Demonstration of China-EU Food Safety Process Control System based on Digital Information Technology”, “Application and Demonstration of Green, Efficient and Safe Breeding Technology for Aquatic Birds” and “Regulation and Mechanism formed by Daily Ration Composition and Feeding System for Healthy and High-quality Meat of Livestock and Poultry”, and presided over Shandong Province’s key research and development project of "Key Technology Research and Industrialization Promotion of Environment-Friendly Antibiotic-free Feed for Swine and Poultry", earning the first prize of Shandong provincial animal husbandry science and technology award 2020 for its safe, efficient and innovative technology research and pilot application of feed ingredient fermentation. “Development and Application of Key Technologies of Feed Nutrition for High-quality Pork Production” was awarded the first prize of the 2020-2021 Shen Nong China Agricultural Science and Technology Award, and the “Key Technologies of Healthy and Efficient Farming of Broilers and their Application” was awarded the second prize of Shen Nong China Agricultural Science and Technology Award. In recent years, the company applied for 2,158 patents and was granted 1.423 patents. In 2020, the company applied for 295 patents, including 93 39 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd invention patents. In the first half of 2021, the company applied for 152 patents, including 27 invention pa tents. 3. The procurement model is constantly upgraded, and the specialized procurement capabilities are continuously improved. Since 2014, the company has further taken stock of and optimized its raw material procurement system, strengthened the centra lized procurement at different levels in various forms, actively sorted out its supplier system through a new management platform, and established strategic partnerships with COFCO, Sinograin, Jilin Wine, Xiangyu, Cargill, Bunge, Yihai, DaChan and other excellent raw materials suppliers at home and abroad, which allow the company to access reliable, cost effective raw material supply upstream. In the past two years, due to the China-US trade war and ASF, etc, the changes of the raw material market were intricate, but the feed supply chain system has rapidly strengthened the raw materials market price research center, significantly improving the spec ialized procurement capabilities and continuously upgrading the procurement models for corn, soybean meal and by-products. In terms of corn procurement, as the number of the company’s factories licensed to import corn increases, the cost-reduction effect brought by choosing low-price imported ingredients at the right time became increasingly apparent. In terms of soybean meal procurement, the purchase was concentrated on leading companies to give full play to the advantages of centralized procurement, while reducing costs through protein price difference, cross-regional arbitrage, bulk cargo logistics and precise dosing. In the first half of 2021, the centralized procurement rate at the headquarters level reached 72%, 20% up from the previous year, the centralized procurement rate of key varieties was as high as 95%, and the turnover rate of ingredient was also increased steadily. Meanwhile, the company actively carried out supply chain financing business, significantly reduced financial costs, and realized the cumulative financing proceeds of about 67.43 million Yuan in the first half of 2021, over 100% up year-on-year. In addition, the company will create an end-to-end procurement operation system guided by digitization with a view to constructing a digital supply chain ecosystem for continuously improving its core competitiveness in procurement. 4. Fully serving farmers, and maintaining closer relationship with downstream customers. Relying on its strong strength, the company launched the "pig flourishing" project to provide small and medium-sized farmer households with comprehensive supporting services such as technical and financial services through various forms of cooperation to help them continue pig farming. The "everything flourishing" project, an extension from the "pig flourishing" project, was also tried out for other feed varieties such as aquaculture feed, ruminant feed and so on, with satisfactory results, for example, fish flourishing, cattle flourishing, sheep flourishing, etc. Through these projects, the company’s service and support to farmers greatly improved the service experienc e of farmers and further solidified the partnership between farmers and the company. 5. The expansion of farming business makes the product structure more balanced. The large scale of farming increases the bargaining power in the breeding operations, which means that it is increasingly important for feed companies to control the farming operations. Since 2016, the company has gradually increased its pig farming business by adopting the "company + large farmers " cooperation, etc. In the times of ASF, farming volume has rapidly increased in recent years due to strong bio-safety technologies in the hands of major farming companies. Moreover, the company has also gradually increased the in-house feeding and outsourced feeding of commercial generation table poultry in its white-feathered poultry business, and directly controls farmers through multiyear co-breeding contracts. The company's feed business has strengthened the control over the farming operations through the aforesaid extension of industry chain, while the synergistic effects of feed and farming have improved the profitability of the feed business, with the product structure more balanced and the competitiveness greatly enhanced. (II) The company's core competitiveness in the white-feathered poultry business: the company masters the proprietary core technology of breeding, seeks continuous innovation in farming facility upgrading and data utilization and strengthens its control over the market through rapid production and sales by leveraging its bargaining power on supply and sale. 1. In terms of breeding of breeding poultry, the company enjoys a remarkable leadership position at home with respect to production technology management, cost management, production efficiency, and product quality, and the company has formed systematic technology and management capabilities. The company's breeding hens each remained producing over 115 healthy chickens in the past two years, and each breeding duck remained producing over 220 healthy ducklings, which are at the domest ic leading level. Especially in terms of selection of breeding ducks, the company cooperated with the Institute of Animal Sciences of CAAS to breed "Zhongxin" ducks with complete intellectual property rights, which broke the monopoly of foreign varieties and 40 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd filled the gap of domestic white-feathered meat duck breeding industry. Consumption-wise, "Zhongxin" ducks are characterized by "high lean meat ratio, low sebum ratio and good meat quality". The ratio of breast and leg meat is as high as 28%, and the se bum ratio is lower than 22%, which addressed the difficult problem that duck meat of some foreign varieties is "too fat and fishy" and not suitable for Chinese taste. Farming-wise, "Zhongxin" Beijing ducks are characterized by fast growth, high feed conversion rate, strong resistance to stress, easy feeding and high survival rate, as the ratio of feed to weight reaches 1.9:1 after 40 days of feeding, with all production indicators reaching the international advanced level. 2. In terms of farming of commercial poultry, the company always maintains continuous innovation to go beyond traditional farming bottlenecks in terms of farming model, equipment and management support, leading the industry development as an examp le. In 2021, a total of 144 patents were filed, including 20 invention patents and 84 patents granted. The company built a digital farming system to bring all production management process data from farms onto cloud to form a big data center in a way that bases onsite management on evidence, while equipping farms wit automatic data acquisition and automatic equipment control systems, in an effort to replace traditional experience-based farming with digital intelligent farming. The company set up large-scaled stage-wise broiler breeding and fattening farms equipped with cages, feeding, heating and transit systems dedicated for the breeding and fattening phases as well as bio-safety, feeding management, epidemic disease control and other field management schemes, a farming model proven feasible through farming of 5 batches of nearly 1.00 million broilers, capable to effectively increase the shed operation efficiency by 70%. To resolve issues with traditional manual duck harvesting such as difficult access to labor, low efficienc y, high attrition rate and high costs, the company developed an automatic duck harvesting system that increases the efficiency by 150%, reduces costs by 60% and lowers the attrition rate by 80%. Meanwhile, the company compiled 10-odd farming standards such as “Equipment Maintenance and Servicing Standard”, “Standard Operating Technique for Three-dimensional Farming of White-feathered Meat Ducks”, “Bio-safety Management Standard for Farms” and “Commercial Poultry Farming SOP”, which are used to guide efficient production onsite. 3. In terms of poultry slaughtering, the company has the largest share of the white-feathered poultry slaughtering market in China, enjoying a leadership position especially in the field of white-feathered meat duck, where it has a strong bargaining power when facing the downstream markets. In terms of raw materials supply, as the main producing areas are concentrated in Shandong and surrounding provinces such as Henan, Hebei, Shanxi, Liaoning, coupled with the fact that the company continued increasing the ratio of in-house breeding of commercial generation in recent years, the company has strong bargaining power in poultry farming contracts or market poultry acquisition in those regional markets. In terms of slaughtering and processing operations, the co mpany presided over the formulation and revision of the industry standard "Operating Procedures for Livestock and Poultry Slaughtering - Duck" by virtue of its largest scale of duck slaughtering in China and the leading technology level; In recent years, throug h construction and transformation, the company increased the automatic and intelligent levels of its slaughtering plants, and also strengthened the standardization and SOP development, while all of its plants constantly improve and optimize existing operat ions and process standards in light of reality, thus resulting in remarkably increased flexible manufacturing capabilities and product premiumization capabilities, and enhanced ability of fast production and fast sale. In terms of sales, the company further pr omotes the policy of “setting sales targets by consumption, setting production targets by sales, and fast production and fast sale", which allows the inventory turnover rate of products to remain at a high level, and overcame the adverse impact of cyclic fluctuations of agricultural product prices on the company's operations to a certain extent. (III) The company's core competitiveness in pig farming business 1. The clustered, integrated pig farming model highlights the cost advantage The holistically planned clustered, integrated pig farming model at least configures grandparental farms and parental farms within a cluster and will also configure fattening farms at the same time in the upgraded version of cluster called “Xiaolong” model, thus achieving the aggregation of full matching of pig breeding process, talent sharing, environment-friendly technology optimization and industry chain, with higher production efficiency and lower cost than the traditional farming model. First, the industry-leading pig farm construction capabilities and advanced production technology help effectively reduce the bio-safety risks of pig farms and ensure the healthy production of pig herds. The production technology and process are more in line 41 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd with the principle of whole-in, whole-out, pigsty matching, separate production of sows and weaned pigs, automatic regulation of shed environment and reasonable planning of excrement and urine storage and transportation. Second, the production efficiency is high, and each indicator is at the industry leading level. In terms of production of breeding pigs, the company now cooperates with the best-run international breeding pig companies of PIC and Hypor to establish a dual-system breeding pig architecture , which allows selecting suitable pig breeds according to the market differences between the south and north China; in terms of breeding capabilities, the company adopts multi-angle combination of algorithm technology, dynamic core group management technology and full-automatic breeding pig determination technology, all of which are the most advanced breeding technologies in the world. Through cooperation with breeding experts in universities of the US and China, the algorithm is constantly optimized, and the intensity of breeding is improved. In the clustered model, each cluster has its own core propagation group, thus ensuring the bio-safety of breeding boars and the efficient production of piglets. In 2020, the total number of piglets per pigsty, the number of piglets per pigsty and number of weaned piglets per pigsty of self-reproduced sows at the company were all industry-leading. Last, through systematic application of production and management technologies, the cost of fattening pigs has been continuously reduced. In recent years, the company orderly implemented application and practice of various new technologies in the industry, and formed a complete set of production management technologies. By standardizing the costing items and methods of all branch companies and refining the weight gain cost mode l to realize the comparison of cost management, the company quickly identified each branch's key indicators of cost control. Through the nine-stage scientific nutrition formulation of self-made feed for precise feeding, coupled with the comfortable growth environments provided by best-run, automatic, intelligent and transparent pig farms, the full cost of fattening of the company’s self-produced piglets has been kept at the industry-leading level. In the future, along with further construction of the company’s self-raising fattening farms, the ratio of self-raising fattening will increase gradually. 2. Industry-leading bio-safety control technologies After two years of exploration, 65 research results in 10 categories have been obtained in the field of ASF c ontainment. With the closed-loop bio-safety containment system, the company won the battle of defense against ASF by stages, as the survival rate of fattening has restored to nearly 90% from the ASF outbreak in the mid-2018 to the end of 2020, an industry-leading figure. As for the ASF containment for pig farms operated by the company, the company has effectively contained the ASF through transformation of physical facilities and establishment of a scientific ASF management system. In terms of physical facilities, the original breeding pig farms have been actively transformed; all newly-built breeding pig farms were built according to the latest safety standards for ASF containment, with a four-level containment system of red, orange, yellow and green zones in pig farms put into use to effectively isolate ASF virus. In terms of management system, the company established an ASF containment organiza tion, formulated the bio-safety management standards and management processes at all levels, established a complete set of scientific containment work mechanisms and containment programs, set up a multilevel management system from the HQ to echelons and then to frontline business unit, whereby the HQ directs the containment efforts across the board, the echelons provide daily tracking reports, and all feed mills, breeding pig farms and slaughterhouses act in strict accordance with the standard ASF containment policies. This, coupled with flight inspections, point inspections and video monitoring guided by the HQ, and the one-level supervisory system for monitoring the execution process and verifying the results, fully realize implementation of unified standards from top to bottom. Although the attenuated ASF outbreak at the end of 2020 and in early 2021 brought new challenges to the original containment technologies, the company was still able to rapidly respond and timely adjust and upgrade its solutions, thus rapidly reducing the impacts of the epidemic and keeping the overall containment level stable. For the ASF containment on fattening farms centered on the cooperative breeding model, the company also carried out more strict management according to the containment standards to ensure the safe production of hogs and production interests of farmers. Firstly, the company subsidizes and assists farmers to complete the renovation and upgrading of sheds, so that the farming conditions meet the ASF containment standards. Secondly, the ASF detection and monitoring was carried out throughout the fattening proce ss of the family farms, including site test before providing piglets, transport vehicle test, feed plant test and materials test, with a timely reporting policy formed in place. Thirdly, for biological assets and production safety, veterinary medicine management, 42 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd environmental management and other standards, comprehensive upgrade has been made according to requirements for ASF containment, farmers are repeatedly trained, and the standards are fully implemented. The cooperative farmer's understanding of ASF has been effectively deepened through a series of measures, and farmers were enabled to gradually act in accordance with the standards through "communication, assistance, mentoring and inspection", thus effectively guaranteeing safe production of hogs. 3. Leading pigsty design capabilities for the future The company has been following the concept of "meeting the needs of pigs, the needs of pig farmers, and the needs of sustainable development" in the design of pig farms, so as to create scientific and automated, intelligent and transparent modern pig farms both for the present use and the future needs, which are the starting point of comprehensive operational capabilities of successful business. The present use means paying attention to the details of production requirements, scientific planning, and eliminating waste. For example, the functional areas, pigstys and pens that match with the established production model; clea rly defining the pig, material and other flows in a way that meet the efficiency and bio-safety requirements at the same time; meeting the environmental needs of pigs in different climates and at different stages. Facing the future means focusing on sustainable development needs. For example, intensive construction of pigsties in response to the scarcity of land; zero emissions of pigsty construction; the intelligent and automated design of piggeries in response to increased labor cost. 4. Industry-leading environment-friendly treatment capabilities The environment-friendly treatment at the plants consists of sewage treatment, solid manure treatment and treatment of sick or dead pigs. In all treatment processes, the company has made available a separate odor treatment method in order to achieve the environmental objectives that fully meet the national standar ds, and industry-leading environment-friendly treatment capabilities. In terms of sewage treatment, the company adopts the "pre-treatment + UASB + two-stage A/O process", so that the effluents reach the standard of farmland irrigation and allow direct discharge to farmland. The company's treatment method for returning biogas slurry to farmland can make the sow bearing capacity of 1 mu of land reach 30 sows, far more than the industry average of no more than 3 sows, meaning the company only needs 400-500 mu of land to build a sow farm accommodating 12,000 sows. In terms of solid manure treatment, the company adopts the method of vertical fermentation tank, which is closed throughout the process and occ upies a small area. Solid manure produced by a farm of 12,000 sows can be treated in only 10-15 days; at the same time, it meets the national discharge standards, and the fermentation process can reach a high temperature of 60-70℃, which can effectively kill the pathogenic microorganisms in feces and avoid the spread of diseases. In addition, the vertical fermentation tank can also deal with sick and dead pigs arising in the plant, thus enhancing the bio-safety and containment capabilities. 5. Continuously innovating in sales method and increasing the sales efficiency across the board The company's self-raised commercial pigs are sold completely according to the holistically planned pig sales method, so as to ensure the optimal prices of large pigs on the market. Apart from a small portion of hogs which can be transported to the company-owned slaughtering plants for slaughter, other marketable hogs are sold through the "easy pig trading" and “Jubaozhu”, both being hog trading platforms developed by the company. After more than one year's accumulation, the system of this trading platform is becoming increasingly mature in algorithm and trading data, guiding pig sales through the generated pork price index, forming regional price comparison and monitoring, and helping increase the company's average pig sales prices. Although the company’s rapid scale expansion in the past year weakened its competitive power, and some good practices failed to be replicated at newly-bulit pig farms, the company now takes a full transition to a stage of robust operation. The company is gradually improving its business operation efficiency, reducing farming costs and restoring its original competitiveness by enha ncing its internal management capabilities through many measures. (IV) The company's core competitiveness in the food business: high-quality resources across the industry chain, traceability of food safety, and gradual upgrading of brands and sales channels 1. In the terms of products: Safety, precise research and development, and flexible production across the industry chain. Relying on the company's whole farming industry chain, the company’s food business can acquire safe raw livestock and poultry that is controlled in the upstream operations of feed, breeding and farming, and truly achieve food safety from farmland to table through the 43 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd safe production in slaughtering and food processing operations, which allows the safest and most trusted fresh chilled meat to reach dining tables of consumers. In 2018, the company established its food industry research institute and set up an excellent food research and development team for product development. The strong research and development capabilities support the company to develop a variety of To B and To C products for customers and consumers at the food end. The company is capable of standardized and efficient production, has participated in the formulation of " GBT 9959.1-2019 Fresh or Frozen Pork and Pork By-products: Part 1: Pork Slices" and other national standards, and constantly raises the level of automated and intelligent operations through construction and transformation in recent years. The company also constantly strengthens standardization and SOP development, while its factories constantly improve and optimize the existing operations and process standards in light of reality, re sulting in significantly increased flexible processing capabilities and product premiumization capabilities. 2. In the terms of branding: a strong combination of parent and subsidiary brands created. In the context of consumption upgrade, the food business is being established fast in a brand new manner. The "New Hope Food", as the parent brand, is supported by high-quality resources across the agriculture and animal husbandry industry chain whether on the To B end "New Hope Liuhe" or To C end "New Hope Food" , which makes the parent brand more viable. Meanwhile, “Kinghey”, “Liuhe”, “Meihao” and “Porridge Jiahe”, as the subsidiary brands, have also been recognized by the customers and partners in the industry for many years. In recent years, the company, relying on product development and channel promotion in a series of segment markets, created a whole new brand positioning “Meihao exclusive for hotpot” and officially launched a high-end western-style low-temperature meat product brand “Le matre charcutier" created with a European farming industry leader Cooperl in early 2021, which gradually won the heart and mind of catering customers and consumers and will also help the company open new spaces for its food business. 3. In the terms of sales channels: The advantages of traditional channels are solid, while the emerging channels are growing rapidly. The company has been operating the whole farming and food industry chains for many years, further consolidates and strengthens its traditional circulation channels such as wholesale markets, farm markets and raw materials processing, while synchronously upgrading and moving forward new channels in the context of intensified market competition and consumption upgrade. At the To B end, the company focuses on the catering market, establishes specialized sales service teams, and provides long-term services to Haidilao Hotpot, Kungfu Fastfood, Yunhaiyao Restaurant, Yuanjiyun Dumplings and other catering companies, winning the honor of high-quality supplier many times. At the To C end, the company has made good progress in the supermarket and e-commerce channels. In the terms of supermarket, we have established presence in Wal-Mart, RT-Mart, Yonghui, Carrefour, Hema, Wumart, Metro and other national supermarket KAs, covering a total of over 5,000 stores. In terms of e-commerce, the company has deeply penetrated JD and Tmall platforms. In 2021, “Meihao” won the first place in the category of quick dishes on Tmall.com’s “618” shopping festival and “Meihao Homemade Deep Fried Pork Slices” ranked first on the list of repeat purchase list and the top-rated list. Meanwhile, the company made quick entry into socia l media e-commerce platforms such as Pinduoduo and Weimob, as well as content e-commerce platforms such as Kuaishou and Tik Tok to jointly fuel the rapid growth of “Meihao” brand in the first half of the year. The company actively reached out into new reta il and new business formats, and carried out full cooperation with Ali Retail System, JD New Channel and other emerging channel customers to make continuous innovation and upgrading of products and supply chain. Relying on operations across the whole industry chain, the company will continue to optimize and upgrade its channel structure, provide good value-added services through integration of internal and external resources, constantly improve the premiumization capabilities for products and services, and build barriers to competition. III. Analysis of main business Overview In recent years, the company has been adhering to the medium-and long-term strategy of "strengthening the feed business, expanding pig business, refining meat and poultry business, providing excellent food, and deepening overseas operations", creating a balanced portfolio of inter-industry livestock and poultry diversification and integration of agriculture and food in the industry. The company is committed to becoming a high-quality blue-chip enterprise with stable growth, a modern enterprise that leads the 44 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd industry’s scientific and technological innovation, the vanguard of international operations for Chinese farming and food companies, an investor-friendly company, and a wonderful company that actively fulfills social responsibility. In the first half of 2021, when upheavals were seen in domestic farming industry, especially the pig farming industry, an ove rall situation arose, where pig and poultry farming business worsened but feed an d food business turned favorable. In terms of pig business, on the one hand, the industry supply continued rising dramatically. According to the Ministry of Agriculture statis tics, hogs marketed in the first half of the year grew by 34% year-on-year and the fixed-point monitoring results of the first half of the year showed fertile sows in stock grew by 30% year-on-year and hogs in stock grew by 29% year-on-year. The increased supply drove the prices to fall remarkably, as the hog prices fell all the way from 36 Yuan/kg in early 2021 to the lowest point of 12 Yuan/kg in June, a decrease of over 60%, even falling back to the low levels before this pork price cycle began ascending in March 2019 for a time. On the other hand, the changed industry environment in recent years also caused remarkably increased cost of the pig farming industry. According to related industry statistics, in the first half of 2021, compared with 2018, the pig raising cost generally increased by 4.5 Yuan/kg due to rising prices of feed ingredients, increased input in ASF containment and increased input in manure treatment; from the end of the previous year to the first quarter of this year, a new round of attenuated ASF outbreak in man y northern provinces caused prevalent effects to farming companies and farming households in these areas; according to the MoA statistics, from March to June of this year, the cost of mass-farmed hogs nationwide was 2,700-2,900 Yuan/pig, or about 22.5-24 Yuan/kg, while the cost of free-ranging pigs was 2,600-3,000 Yuan/pig, or about 22-25 Yuan/kg, meaning the whole industry has begun suffering losses in May and June. In terms of the poultry business, the rising market condition in 2018 and 2019 resulted in industry overcapacity, as the grandparental breeding hens on hand, parental breeding hens on hand and sales volume of commercial-generation baby chicken across the country in the first half of 2021 were all sustained at the highest levels in the past six years. On the side of c onsumption, the rapidly declining pork prices coupled with weakened consumption demand caused by the COVID-19 allowed poultry meat prices to remain low for a long period of time, making it more difficult for the poultry business to make profits. In the feed business, the whole industry’s swine feed output increased by 71% year-on-year in the first half of 2021 along with the rapidly recovering hogs marketed and on hand; In the feed business, the volume of swine feed produced in the industry increased by 71% year-on-year in the first half of 2021 due to the rapidly recovering pig farming industry. Poultry feed sales stopped growing in this year due to poultry farming volume having reached a historic high in the previous year, with a 6% year -on-year decrease in poultry feed throughout the industry in the first half of the year. Stimulated by rapidly rising fish prices, the whole industry’s aquaculture feed output grew by 10% year-on-year in the first half of the year, but there is structured difference among different category segments, with decreased demands for ordinary aquaculture feeds and increased demands for famous, high-quality and specialty categories. At the side of feed ingredients, the prices of corn, which is a major ingredient in feed, remained high , thus continuously exerting pressure on the cost of the feed industry. Overall, the company faced more opportunities than risks on its feed business in the first half of the year. In its food business, the increased marketed hogs also drove the slaughtering business to grow, as the slaughtering volume of designated pig slaughterhouses above a designated size grew by 45% year-on-year and pork production increased by 36% year-on-year in the first half of 2021. Increased production helps slaughterhouses increase their capacity utilizat ion rate and reduce costs, but pork prices also went down synchronously with pork prices. According to the MoA statistics, the average wholesale price of pork nationwide fell from the highest point of 47 Yuan/kg in early 2021 to 19 Yuan/kg, an almost 60% decrease. This situation contributed little to the profitability increase of slaughterhouses, but was beneficial to deep-processed meat products using raw and fresh meat as ingredients to a certain extent. Policy-wise, along with the full victory won in China’s decisive battle against poverty in late 2020, the No.1 central government document issued in early 2021 reflected an overall shift of policy focus from the work related to “agriculture, rural areas, and farmers” in the past two years to rural revita lization, as “accelerating resumption of hog production” that once appeared as a separate section in the previous year’s No. 1 document went back into a subsection thereof this year, i.e., “accelerating the construc tion of a modern farming system, protecting the basic production capacities of hogs and perfecting the long-acting mechanism for steady and 45 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd orderly development of the hog industry.” However, as the prices once again fell after resumption of capacities in the first half of the year, causing losses to part of pig farms (farmers), the Ministry of Agriculture and other related ministries and commissions once again jointly issued the “Opinion on Promoting Sustainable and Healthy Development of Hog Industry” in early August, laying down a development objective of “substantially forming a new pattern of high-quality development of hog industry featuring efficient output, product safety, resource conservation, environmental friendliness and effective regulation within the next 5-10 years to significantly increase the industry competitiveness, remarkably enhance the epidemic and disease prevention and control abilities, substantially perfect the policy assurance system and effectively alleviate the cyclic fluctuations of markets.” Under the guidance of this policy, China’s farming enterprises will pay more attention to increasing their core competitiveness in the future and work to achieve healthy growth through true high-quality development, instead of suffering P/L fluctuations simply following the cyclic fluctuations of markets. Despite the suddenly changed external environments that caused tremendous pressures, the company still copes with them calmly while seeking changes actively. On every line of its business, the company continuously advanced organizational optimization and upgrading, and further enhanced the construction of its middle office on its pig business in order to accomm odate the remarkable and rapid expansion of its management scale previous year; in its feed business, the company set up a corporate-level feed business management committee, which is also equipped with related middle office functions to make overall planning for its domestic and overseas feed units and feed plants run as part of its pig business and poultry business, so as to more adequately leverage the scale economy of its total volume of internal and external feed sales that exceed 20.00 million tons each year, as well as level the management capabilities of each feed unit upwards; in its food business, the company continued advancing the operation of its food business headquarters, enhanced the interaction between food business and poultry business on meat food sales and collaboration among other regional and channel teams, while strengthening its middle office of food bus iness by starting with “seeking, research, manufacture and promotion”. In terms of capital management, the company’s 8.15 billion-Yuan convertible corporate bond project launched in the second half of the previous year was approved by CSRC in late April; the company also successfully completed issue of 1.0 billion-Yuan renewable corporate bonds in early June, thus becoming the only private company to successfully issue renewable corporate bonds since 2020 and also the first agricultural product manufacturer to successfully do so, which helped the company broaden its financing channels, enhanced its short-term solvency and provided stable medium and long-term funding support for it to survive the difficult period of the current bottoming of pork prices. Faced with fluctuations of the company’s stock price and phase-specific operational difficulties, the company’s board of directors and management remain confident in that the company once again launched a new round of repurchase in late January after completing a 800 million-Yuan repurchase in early January that was started in the second half of the previous year, with nearly 230 million-Yuan repurchases completed so far; the company’s management also started a plan in early May to hold additional shares in the company through contractual PE fund, with nearly 160 million Yuan-worth additional shareholding completed so far. Within the reporting period, the company achieved business revenue of 61.519 billion Yuan, 16.823 billion Yuan more year-on-year, registering a growth rate of 37.64%; due to the rapidly declining pork prices, rising prices of feed ingredients, attenuated ASF outbreak and depressed market condition of the poultry business, the company’s pig business suffered losses, c ausing the net profits attributable to shareholders of the listed company in this reporting period to be 3.415 billion Yuan in deficits, but these deficits included impairment loss accrued on various assets by the company according to the enterprise accounting standards a nd prudent requirements, which had a total effect of a 1.080 billion Yuan decrease in current net profits. (I) Feed business: organizational adjustment provides precise empowerment, with sales margin growing steadily. The feed business is still a major pillar of the company, which can provide a stable profit base for the company in the fluctuating price cycle of swine and poultry. In the first half of 2021, the company improved its customer service of the feed business, especially of those key accounts. Despite the price of raw materials stay high, the company consistently adjusts its feed formulas to keep competitive in price while meeting the dietary needs of the animals. The company also further optimized its organization, fully leveraged its resource superiority, promoted business collaboration, and precise empowerment by establishing a feed business management committee. 46 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd 1. Strengthen customer service and perfect supporting infrastructure for both upstream and downstream of the industry chain. The ASF significantly accelerated the process of livestock and poultry farming going big, and the demands of farming customers for feed suppliers also gradually transitioned from a single source of feed supply to one-stop solutions. To seize the opportunities, the company worked on increasing the sales volume to group and large customers as a main thrust of its feed business development, advanced construction of bio-safe high-standard plants, formed more professionally capable “marketing + technology” team to approach customers, actively matched customers with seedlings and animal healthcare resources of every major category of farming while establishing many animal healthcare testing labs and providing customers with support in terms of bio-safety and epidemic containment, etc. 2. Collaboration between procurement and R&D for optimized formula cost. In the first half of the year, the continuous zigzag high levels of prices of corn and soybean meal as main feed ingredients exerted pressure on the cost of the company’s feed business. While properly purchasing domestic ingredients, the company increased the purchasing ratio of low-price imported ingredients when appropriate by leveraging the market condition research center’s ability to anticipate the price trends of ingredients, so as to cope with the continuous high levels of domestic corn prices. The company also leveraged its technical expertise to continuously iterate and promote daily ration formulas comprising low-price alternative ingredients such as wheat, sorghum and brown rice, and launched a variety of formula categories such as non-corn hybrid daily ration, wheat-based daily ration and brown-rice-based daily ration while satisfying animal nutrition requirements, allowing the company to rapidly and flexibly adjust its formulas and keep its cost competitive even when ingredient prices fluctuate. In addition, the company developed a proprietary feed formula system in the first half of the year, which was commissioned in early August and will make the company’s feed formulation more efficient and faster and promote data sedimentation and multisystem interconnectivity. 3. Build a feed middle-office to aggregate organization capabilities. In the first half of the year, the company set up a feed business management committee at the company’s headquarter to make overall planning for its domestic and oversea feed plants, including those run as part of the company’s pig and poultry businesses. The committee is responsible for formulating strateg ic direction, market panning, pricing mechanism and other related policies for externally-sold feeds. By setting up various middle-office departments under the committee, the committee helps raise the level of specialized operation of various parts of the feed business and intensifies the interaction among various parts so as to more adequately leverage the scale economy of total volume of internal and external feed sales that exceed 20.00 million tons per year. In the first half of 2021, the centralized procurement rate at the headquarters level reached 72%, 20% higher than the previous year, and the centralized procurement rate of key varieties was as high as 95%. Meanwhile, the company actively carried out measures in the supply chain financing business, significantly reduced financial costs, and realized the cumulative financing proceeds of about 67.43 million Yuan in the first half of 2021, an over 100% year-on-year increase. During the reporting period, the company sold 13.53 million tons of various feed products in total, 3.01 million tons more year-on-year, or 29% up; 10.11 million tons of feeds were sold externally, 27% up year-on-year (a year-on-year growth of 21% in national total feed output). Among them,2.65 million tons of swine feed were sold externally, 98% up year-on-year (a year-on-year growth of 71% in national swine feed output); 6.54 million tons of poultry feed were sold externally, 10% up year-on-year (-8% up year-on-year in national poultry feed output); 0.64 million tons of aquaculture feeds were sold, 29% up year-on-year (9% up year-on-year in national aquaculture feed output) ;0.21 million tons of ruminant feeds were sold, 42% up year-on-year (18% up year-on-year in national ruminant feed output); the company achieved business revenue of 32.827 billion Yuan, 10.241 billion Yuan more and 45.34% up year-on-year. (II) White-feathered table poultry business: holding fast to strategic marketing transformation and building up internal strength for efficiency increase and cost reduction. The white-feathered table poultry business is an important cornerstone of the company’s business growth and also an important part of the company’s extension towards the downstream end of food. Since the beginning of 2021, the rapid recovery of hog capabilities nationwide coupled with the impact of the COVID-19 resulted in weakened demands for poultry meat consumption and caused the poultry price cycle to begin going down faster than the pork price cycle. In view of this, the company held fast to its 47 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd strategic direction, actively explored the best possible industry development model, optimized its channel structure on the sales side, increased the percentage of key accounts and actively pursued marketing transformation to broaden the room for profitability, while ensuring lean operations in terms of internal management and continuously improving operating efficiency. 1. Firmly advancing marketing transformation on the side of poultry meat and pursuing automation and digitalization on the side of slaughtering for improved operating efficiency. In the first half of the year, the rapidly declining pork prices caused by continuous expensing of pork production capabilities caused tremendous impacts on the consumption of poultry meat. The company continuously pursued marketing transformation and channel sinking strategy by making greater efforts to develop various channels such as food processors, restaurants, malls and supermarkets and new retail outlets and intensifying efforts to develop fresh products and customized products for differentiated needs of the aforesaid channels on the one hand. Of them, in terms of sideline poultry products typified by duck blood, the company has become the most essential supplier to major hotpot chain brands in China suc h as Haidilao, and the “golden duck webs” that the company worked hard building also realized over 70.00 million Yuan in sales in the first half of the year, now on its way to become a year-round 100 million-Yuan-worth single item as planned; on the other hand, the company intensified its efforts to acquire nearby customers, reach nearby outlets, increase premium and make its poultry meat products more profitable. The sales volumes from the aforesaid advantageous channels grew by 12% year-on-year. The company created customer-hierarchical differentiated management standards and differentiated marketing and service strategies for its integrated business units following the “whole chain”, “semi-chain” and “efficiency first” development models, while accelerating automation upgrading and transformation efforts for its business units that match advantageous channels. 2. Solidly developing bases on the farming side to increase the ratio of direct supply and optimize launch cost. In order to match its development strategies involving three models of “whole cha in”, “semi-chain” and “efficiency first”, and stabilize supply of non-slaughtered chicken and duck ingredients, the company held fast to developing its self-run farming bases. In the first half of the year, the company completed leasing, trusteeship and construction of 10 in-house commercial generation farms with additional capacities equivalent to annual output of about 30.00 million birds. Facing the existing company-farmer cooperation system, the company further optimized the ratio of direct supply in the first half of the year to sustain 100% in case of chicken business and rise to 92% in case of duck business, 12% up from the end of the previous year. 3. Optimizing the seeding output rhythm on the side of breeding birds for strictly controling farming cost In the first half of the year, faced with the fluctuating prices of chicken and duck seedlings, in terms of seedling output rhythm, the company optimized the seedling output rhythm and controlled the best possible sale timing through agile operation sc heduling; in terms of cost control, the company increased its operating efficiency through optimizing operation processes, increased the seedling survival rate by bu ilding provenance health databases, optimized labor and energy costs by adopting and increasing the application of automated equipment (automatic feeding, closed environmental control, automatic egg collection system, farming shed thermal energy recovery devic e and other advanced technological equipment), and optimized its selling cost by selling seedlings via online digital marketing platforms. During the reporting period, the company sold a total of 264 million baby chicks and baby ducks, 11 million more and 4% up year-on-year, 220 million commodity chicks and ducks were sold, 21 million more and 11% up year-on-year; 352 million adult chicks and ducks were slaughtered, unchanged year-on-year, indicating a further increased matching ratio of commercial generation farming and slaughtering business; 0.8640 million tons of chicken and duck meats were sold, 40,900 tons less and 5% down year-on-year; the company achieved business revenue of 9.209 billion Yuan, 130 million Yuan more and 1.43% up year-on-year. (III) Pig farming business: building up internal strength for stabilized operation and adjusting paces to start a new journey With the operation scale constantly expanding,, pig farming has become a core business that affects the company’s profitability most. In the first half of 2021, the drastically dropping pork prices, rising prices of feed ingredients and a new round of attenuated ASF outbreak affecting many northern provinces from the end of the previous year to the first quarter of this year all causedour pig farming business to encounter extremely terriable external environments. Meanwhile, the company’s pig business managed over 200 subsidiaries with independent accountability in 2020, increasing 100% year-on-year. We managed nearly 1.20 million fertile sows, three times more year-on-year; employees approached 45,000, 3.5 times more year-on-year. Such a leapfrog development, on the one hand,seized the window of dual opportunity of market and policy in the last two years thus increasing the market share, formi ng a 48 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd balanced presence across advantageous regions of the country, facilitating the production resumption and supply assurance of hogs across the country and laying a foundation for the next stage of operations; on the other hand, it also posed new requirements and challenges to the management capabilities of the company. From the beginning of 2021, the company also fully shifted from a stage of rapid expansion in the past two years to a stage of robust operation, where the company enhanced its internal management capabilities through many measures, improved business operation efficiency, gradually reducing farming costs and survived the difficult period of cyclic bottoming. 1. Adjusting the pace of development and controlling capital expenditure. By the end of the first half of this year, the bree ding pigs on hand ,at breeding pig farms , exceeded 1.60 million, and the stock scale of fattening farms built in place also reached 6.00 million. Besides, fattening farms of 3.90 million pigs is currently under construction or to be built. On this basis, the capacity portfolio also further improved, as the marketing rate of hogs accounted for nearly 20% of the total in the central and south region in the first half of the year, increasing 100% form last year. The aforesaid capacities are sufficient to meet the needs for piglet production and auxiliary in-house fattening operations for the next two years, so the company has now slowed down the construction of new breeding pig farms.And the company flexibly scheduled the construction progress of fattening farms,based on the availa bility of supporting facilities for fattening capacities in the regions where it operates.Also, we changed the previous self-built fattening farms ,which temporarily used for breeding farms, now adjusted back to the fattening purpose according to production rhythm. The company’s capital spending in the first half of the year fell by 46% from the second half of the previous year, and the Q2 capita l spending also fell by 45% from the first quarter; The company’s startup cost in the first half of the year fell by 18% from the second half of the previous year, and the Q2 startup cost also fell by 56% from the first quarter, with both the capital spending and startup cost expected to be further decreased in subsequent periods. 2. Iterating containment measures to fight the attenuated ASF outbreak. From the end of the previous year to the first quarter of this year, a new round of attenuated ASF outbreak in many Northern provinces caused prevalent effects to farming companies and farming households. This round of attenuated ASF outbreak is characterized by extensive outside contamination, numerous channels of spread, long latency periods and a long phase of effect, thus posing new challenges to the containment measures. Around the Spring Festival, all officers of the company’s pig business unit including senior executives conducted field surveys in order to strengthen the ASF containment efforts, to comfort the frontline employees.Meanwhile, at the levels of the head and teams, key person were assigned to do ASF task ,they are supposed to provide prioritized assistance in those ] challenging regions In this process, the company continuously summed up its experience and upgraded containment and decontamination methods, including whole-population serum double-antibody and double-screening, application of thermal imagers and static attenuation and disinfection of materials; and first added up its containment processes before subtracting in a way that avoids slackness resulting from prolonged and excessively trivial containment processes, which helped restore normal production faster while ensuring containment, as well as reduce bio-safety containment costs at the same time. With the aforesaid measures, the number of ASF-affected farms at the end of the first half of the year has been kept below 1%. 3. Optimizing the organizational structure and assigning capable individuals back to production. As the company rapidly expanded in the past two years, its pig farming team also continuously split up and expanded. As a result, many vertical teams separately organized and managed. And managers of frontline units are responsible for development, construction and public af fairs. When the company fully transitioned to a stage of robust operation, HR arrangements were also adjusted accordingly to focus organizational strengths on production and emphasize more concentration and aggregation, thereby helping unified standards and systems realize a full coverage both horizontally and vertically and facilitating rapid replication and adoption of best practices inside the company. First of all, at the corporate level, with five middle offices of the swine business that started being built in late 2020, the company further refined and strengthened the HQ function of pig business by, for example, spinning off a feed supply department from the feed nutrition department in order for the former to focus on nutrition formula and feeding methods and for the latter to focus on production and quality control of feed plants affiliated to the pig business, as well as conduct centralized procurement and logistics in collaboration with the companywide feed system; the company also planned to extend a bio-safety route from its health management department in order for the former to focus on technology research and development for epidemic prevention and 49 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd testing and treatment and for the latter to focus on supervising and guiding the implementation of containment measures. Sec ondly, on the levels of vertical teams and operating regions, one the one hand, corresponding routes and jobs were added in conjunction with the HQ function refining to ensure related work can be carried out level by level; on the other hand, the duties of deve lopment and construction and public affairs that largely preoccupied general managers of various levels at the previous stage of development were reallocated to the counterpart departments of the HQ for vertical management so as to allow general managers of various levels to focus more on production and operations inside pig farms. Last, on frontline production units, skill certification was further pursued, as the HQ enacted 73 standards and 15 certificates covering 5 work sections as well as supporting section-specific learning hand cards in a unified manner to conduct online and onsite theoretical exams for more than 20,000 frontline production workers as well as onsite operation certification inside pig farms. Exams and certifications are used to drive all employees to refresh themselves on basic production skills and link the certification results to job adjustment and grade change, with a work permit system adopted to help motivate teams and optimize the workforce structure.

Structured entities controlled by the company □ applicable √ not applicable X. Risks facing the company and countermeasures I. Epidemic and natural disaster risks The animal epidemic disease is the main risk faced in the development of livestock industry. There are three kinds of risks arising out of the occurrence of epidemic disease. First, the occurrence of epidemic disease is likely to result in death of livestock, and leads directly to the reduction in yield and drop in prices. Second, the occurrence and prevalence of epidemic disease on a large scale easily influence the consumer psychology, lead to shrinking market demand, and also affect the feed production and operation. Third, after the outbreak of some infectious epidemic diseases endangering the public health and safety, the government will take lockdown and other measures to contain the spread of epidemic disease. These epidemic containment measures will seriously hinder the transportation of feed, animal healthcare products and live livestock, and the workers returning to work, and have a great impact on the production and operation of breeding industry. In addition, the outbreak of infectious epidemic diseases will force most catering enterprises to stop doing business, some agricultural product markets to shut down, and consumers to reduce shopping activities outdoors, resulting in reduced meat demand and consumption. For example, the African Swine Fever (ASF) with an enormous impact on the entire industry broke out in 2018. As the ASF is characterized by long latency and high mortality after onset of the disease, and the effective and reliable vaccine has not yet been developed successfully, coupled with the fact that it was also the concentrated outbreak on a large scale in China for the first time, both the large-scale breeding enterprises and small farmers lacked effective containment measures at the onset of epidemic, thereby suffering losses to varying degrees. From the late 20 20 to the first quarter of 2021, attenuated ASF bounced back once again, especially hitting Hebei, Shandong and Henan and once again causing prevalent effects to farming companies and farming households in these areas. The COVID-19 outbreak at the beginning of 2020 also posed daunting challenges to the livestock and poultry breeding industry 65 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd in Chhina. The anti-epidemic measures such as lockdown, delay in return to work, suspension of live poultry trading, and shutdown of slaughter houses led to unavailability of feed to farms and livestock farmers, newborn livestock nowhere to sell, inability to slaughter livestock and poultry, and difficulties to conduct breeding production activities normally. After entry into 2021, despite the stable epidemic containment situation at home overall, scattered episodes of the epidemic across the country and regional lockdown policies would also cause hindrances to movement of personnel and materials related to business operations.. In terms of the natural disaster risk, the feed and slaughter are closely related to plant ing and livestock breeding industry, so the natural disasters such as temperature anomalies, drought, flood, earthquake, hail, and snow disaster will all adversely affec t the industry operation and development. The natural disasters occurring on the production bases of the company and surrounding areas may cause substantial damages to production facilities or equipment, and the natural disasters and extreme climate may also drive the prices of some feed ingredients and meats up. For example, serious flood disasters broke out in many places of South China in summer of 2016, adversely affecting the planting, breeding, farm produce logistics, project implementation and meat prices along the industry chain to varying degrees; in terms of planting, continuous catastrophic floods hitting some areas will result in decreased output of feed ingredients, thus impacting the feed ingredients prices, while at the same time decreasing the quality of raw materials; in terms of breeding, flood might cause pathogenic microorganisms buried in the land surrounding breeding farms to be exposed in air and drinking water, and will result in spread of pathogenic microorganisms and trigger epidemic diseases. In addition, se veral provinces hardest hit by the floods are major aquatic breeding areas in China, where the impact of floods not only would destroy fishery production equipment but also is highly likely to wash off fish-barring facilities and bring away fish fries and adult fishes, causing losses to economic income of farmers and thus affecting feed ingredients sales of the company; in terms of logistics, roads are flooded and roadbeds and road surfaces destroyed wherever flood sweeps, forcing the freight costs of raw materials, feed, finished products and breeding pigs to rise and the transport capacity down, causing pressures on the supply chain of the company; in terms of project implementation, continuous rainstorms will also cause part of capital investment construction projects of the company to suffer temporary shutdown, affecting the construction schedule; in terms of meat prices, flood would also impact the meat supply and directly contributed to the rising prices of pigs, while the gap in meat prices between affected areas and unaffected areas was growing, thus leading to increased allocation and transport of hogs, and resulting in spread of the pandemic to a certain extent. Risk countermeasures: In the face of animal epidemics, the livestock farms planned and constructed by the company’s breeding base are normalized and standardized farms staffed with professional breeding technologists and equipped with strict anti-epidemic measures to effectively prevent and control the occurrence of epidemic diseases. The company has also summarized some experie nce and measures responding to major epidemic diseases through years of exploration and accumulation, which allow the company to eliminates the impact of various epidemics by adjusting the product mix when appropriate, improving the product quality, cond ucting deep market development actively and reducing the costs. Since 2014, the company has been guiding technicians to better serve farmers by establishing animal healthcare laboratories in various areas, creating the cloud-based animal healthcare system and conducting the monitoring and warning of epidemics and diseases in real time. In particular, in view of ASF outbreak in 2018, the company formulated all-round and system-wide prevention and control measures, covering existing self-run pig farms, fattening farms in cooperation with farmer households, new pig farms of the company, swine feed production units and internal animal healthcare laboratories, with a view to ensuring proper prevention and control at the source of animal nutrition. Meanwhile, actively participating in industry exchanges and exploring more effective containment methods with peers allowed the company’s bio-safety epidemic prevention system, pig survival rate and marketing rate to achieve industry-leading levels. From the end of the previous year to the first quarter of this year, a new round of attenuated ASF outbreak in many northern provinces is characterized by extensive outside contamination, numerous channels of spread, long latency periods and a long phase of effect, thus posing ne w challenges to the containment measures formed by the industry based on the past two years of ASF containment at the initial stage of the outbreak. However, the company continued summing up its experiences and upgrading containment and decontamination methods in the containment process, including whole-population serum double-antibody and double-screening, application of thermal imagers and static attenuation and disinfection of materials; and first added up its containment processes before subtracting 66 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd in a way that avoids slackness resulting from prolonged and excessively trivial containment processes, which helped restore normal production faster while ensuring containment, as well as reduce bio-safety containment costs at the same time. With the aforesaid measures, the number of ASF-affected farms at the end of the first half of the year has been kept below 1%. In response to the COVID-19, the company lost no time to react, formulated and carried out various containment policies and conducted emergency disposition in a coordinated manner. Secondly, the company actively communicates with the government at all levels, coordinates the transportation of goods such as livestock products, and raw and auxiliary materials of feed and products, secures vehicle passes, and implements the green channel policy enacted by the government at all levels. Thirdly, the company ensures sufficient procurement from feed plants and production supply through region-wide coordination, strengthens internal support for poultry industry integration, arranges its employees to return to work rapidly and orderly, contributes to the adequate supply of daily necessities across the country, adjusts its food industry strategy in real time and expands sales through supermarket channel and online channel. Fourthly, in light of its business practices, the company compiled the epidemic containment manual, published documents such as technical guidance on employee prevention and control and quarantine and guidance on engineering control amid epidemics, makes the epidemic prevention arrangements in a targeted manner and strengthens employee safety protection. In response to natural disasters, although unable to rule out the possibility that serious natural disasters will occur in areas where its subsidiaries operate, the company’s extensive business portfolio and presense both at home and abroad help ensure that the company’s business as a whole will not be materially affected when natural disasters occur in particular regions. Especially for the rainstorms and floods in south China, which have occurred frequently in these years, the company has accumulated a large wealth of experience, established proven contingency plans and maintains sufficient flood prevention supplies in stock at all times, wh ich allow the company to flexibly guide farmers through production plan adjustments when the flood season begins in preparation for disaster relief together. At the same time, the company can also take the advantage of its nationwide presence to allocate funds, raw materials, equipment, and staff timely and effectively to resume production as soon as possible and reduce the losses caused by natural disasters. II. Risk of feed ingredient price fluctuations The cost of main feed ingredients for feed production accounts for more than 90% of total cost of feed production. In the past, the proportion of feed business in the company’s revenue was large, but as the feed industry generally adopts the cost-plus pricing method, the fluctuations in prices of feed ingredients can be partly transmitted to the downstream breeding operations, so as to relieve the pressure from the rising prices of feed ingredients. However, with a growing percentage of livestock breeding business in the company’s revenue, the rising prices of feed ingredients will have a growing impact on the company as a whole. Since 2020, due to many influencing factors such as the COVID-19, changed purchase and storage policies and crop yield in main grain-producing areas of various countries, the prices of main feed ingredients such as corn and soybean meal continuously rose, with the average market prices of corn even approaching 3,000 Yuan/t in early 2021. Coupled with the continuous tension betwe en China and the US, which brings great uncertainties to the bulk produce trade between the two countries and international trade of feed ingredients in the future, the risk of price fluctuations will exist in the long term. Moreover, against the background of longtime existence of ASF in China, the feed enterprises will reduce some high-risk feed ingredients for the safety of animal nutrition, such as usage of corn, pig blood, and pig bone meal, so as to make the demand for raw materials concentrate on other types of raw materials, which will also lead to rise in prices of such alternative raw materials. Risk countermeasures: The company is the largest domestic feed enterprise with the scale advantages and a considerable say in the raw material purchasing. The company started reorganizing and optimizing its raw material procurement syste m in 2017, combed through its supplier system actively, established strategic partnerships with many domestic and overseas best-run raw material suppliers, conducted the supply chain financing of various forms actively, and optimized its purchasing cost and related financial expenses. In 2019, the company continued to drive transformations in terms of central purchasing of raw materials, strategic purchasing channel optimization of partners, acquisition of corn produced in northeast and purchasing model upgrading, realizing a greater purchasing value despite the challenges. The COVID-19 crisis in 2020 has caused phase-wise impact on the prices of feed 67 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd ingredients and feed additives, but the company intensified application of hedging tools to control the raw material price fluctuation risk, while the company’s technology, purchasing, production and marketing departments worked closely with each other during the response to the pandemic, with these experiences already summarized and applied into the daily opera tion management of the feed business. In the first half of 2021, when prices of main feed ingredients such as corn and soybean meal continuously fluctuated at high levels, the company actively purchased imported low-price ingredients and alternative ingredients such as wheat, sorghum and brown rice while properly anticipating the market condition, in an effort to continually optimize ingredient costs. III. Risk of price fluctuations of livestock and poultry The finished products of livestock and poultry breeding business of the company mainly include baby chick, baby duck, white-feathered chicken, white-feathered duck, breeding pig, piglet, and hog. Especially since 2016, the pig farming business of the company has been growing rapidly, with 8.29 million hogs sold in 2020 and more than 500 million self-raised and outsourced commercial generation chicken and ducks sold, which allowed the livestock and poultry breeding to contribute greater to the e ntire revenue and profits of the company. Along with the further growth of breeding volume of the company in the future, the prices of livestock and poultry will affect the levels of revenue and profits of the company even more remarkably. In the first half of 2021, the domestic livestock and poultry markets saw remarkably delinking pork prices and low-level fluctuations of poultry prices as a whole. in the first half of 2021, the marketing rate of hogs rose 34% year-on-year, and fixed-point monitoring results at the end of the first half of the year showed that the fertile sows on hand grew 30% year-on-year, hogs on hand grew 29% year-on-year and the prices of hogs fell all the way from 36 Yuan/kg in early 2021 to the lowest point of 12 Yuan/kg in June, a decrease of over 60%, even falling back to the low levels before this pork price cycle began ascending in March 2019 for a time. In terms of the poultry business, the rising market condition in 2018 and 2019 resulted in industry overcapacity, as the grandparental breeding hens on hand, parental breeding hens on hand and sales volume of commercial-generation baby chicken across the country in the first half of 2021 were all sustained at the highest levels in the past six years. On the side of c onsumption, the rapidly declining pork prices coupled with weakened consumption demand caused by the COVID-19 allowed poultry meat prices to remain low for a long period of time, making it more difficult for the poultry business to make profits. Risk countermeasures: apart from the impact of sporadic epidemics, the fluctuations in prices of livestock and poultry mainly depend on the periodic increase and decrease in breeding and supply quantities. As a result, the process of livestock and pou ltry prices going down itself is a process of the survival of the fittest in the industry. Against this backdrop, the company still can generate more revenue or suffer fewer losses than its rivals in the process of price decline as long as it increases its breeding efficiency and makes its breeding costs lower than its rivals. When some partic ipants exit, the total supply declines and the prices rise again, the company might gain a greater market share and a higher return on investment than before. In recent years, the company has bee n committed to continuously increasing its breeding efficiency, and enjoying industry leadership in terms of production of healthy young breeding poultry and PSY and full cost of pig breeding, which will ensure that the company will remain competitive during the price fall of livestock and poultry. Although the company’s rapid scale expansion on its pig business in the past year caused some of its competitiveness to be diluted phase by phase, and some best practices formed failed to be replicated in time at newly commissioned pig farms, along with the company’s full transition to a stage of robust operation, the company is gradually improving its business operation efficiency, reducing farming costs and restoring its original competitiveness by enhancing its interna l management capabilities through many measures. On the other hand, unlike most of agricultural and livestock companies, the company has slaughtering and processing business at the downstream part of farming and feed business at the upstream part of farming, which happens to hedge against the farming process. The price decline of livestock and poultry means that the cost of raw meat in the slaughtering and processing businesses falls too and its profit margin will be increased; the declining prices of livestock and poultry also mean the farming volume of livestock and poultry is at high levels, which also helps increase the profitability of feed business. Such an industry chain presence can moderately mitigate the effects of declining prices of livestock and poultry on the company as a whole. IV. Impact of environmental protection policies In 2014, China started implementing the Regulations on Pollution Prevention for Large-scale Breeding of Livestock and Poultry, 68 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd as the government was strongly determined to keep livestock farms in line and new regulations we re enacted across the country to demolish livestock farms, ban or restrict livestock farming activities. At the level of central government, the new “Environmental Protection Law” was enacted in 2015; in 2016, the State Council issued the “13th Five-Year” Ecological Environment Protection Program”, even more specifically requiring “local governments to close or relocate livestock farms (communities) and breeding households within the banned areas according to law by the end of 2017”. In 2018, the first grou p of central environmental protection inspectors conducted the “follow-up reexaminations”, as the efforts to investigate pollution caused by livestock farms were intensified across the country, ordering some breeding households to shut down for environmental remediation or close once for all due to their livestock farming facilities failing to meet the environmental standards or discharging wastewater beyond the se t standards. These pressures from the environmental protection policies will force some livestock and poultry farms failing to meet the environmental standards to exit the market, and lead to reduced breeding quantities, which will produce a certain impact on the growth of feed business of the company and its acquisition of hogs and poultry for slaughtering business. Some branches and subsidiaries of the company fail to meet the environmental protection requirements economically through hardware transformation, or no longer have the market basis due to being located in the banned areas, which will lead to their shutdown. In the long run, however, the exit of these outdated capacities for incompliance with environmental standards will allow the best-run producers that remain in the industry to acquire higher profitability, which is still of a positive significance to the entire industry. Risk countermeasures: in light of the changes of the breeding market, the company makes every effort to keep its stock under control, makes full use of its industrialized supporting and integrated services by changing its feed marketing model, and strengthens its cooperation with medium and large-sized farms and farmers that meet the environmental standards. While exploring a new way of breeding, the company regards ecology, environmental protection, efficiency and safety as primary considerations in its project design, helps farmers remodel and build sheds and stalls that meet the higher environmental standards, increase the profitability of breeding business and actively drive the domestic livestock and poultry farming industry to grow healthily. On the other hand, the company actively grows its inventories by cultivating new livestock and poultry farming bases in environmentally suitable are as through construction, acquisition, joint venture and cooperation using its existing business portfolio across the country, thus ensuring the stability of its breeding resources. V. Risk of food safety Food safety concerns the physical health and life safety of the general public, and is even a matter of life and death for food companies. Occurrence of food safety problems or accidents would cause food companies to face claims, actions or related penalties in a way that even affects their brands and reputations, thereby materially adversely affecting their business, financial con dition, stock prices or business performance. The implementation of the revised “Food Safety Law” in of 2015 also means China has brought its focus on food safety to an unprecedented level. The outbreak of ASF in 2018 raised even more demanding requirements for food safety control. Although the ASF itself is not a zoonotic disease and the pork with ASF virus is not harmful at all to humans after conventional heating and cooking, as there is not yet fully effective containment measure against ASF at present, and the pork and its products are one of the main vectors of the virus, more costs are required to prevent and control ASF during the proc ess of hog recovery and slaughter, pork transportation and vending. In 2019, the State Council issued the “Opinions on D eepening Reforms and Strengthening Food Safety Efforts”, making clear the need to further beef up food safety efforts and ensure the “safety o n the dining table” of the general public with ht most rigorous standards, the most stringent oversight, the most severe penalties and the most serious accountability. Risk countermeasures: the company has always been highly concerned about food safety by seriously ensuring food safety in everything it does. In 2015, the company established its safety and environmenta l protection department to ensure safety, health and environmental protection of its products, and upgraded the equipment in its “three-level” testing system, expanded the laboratories of its branches and subsidiaries in terms of human and material resources, guaranteed the allocation and input of funds, resources and personnel across the food industry chain, which upgraded the food safety organization management, equipment and facilities, process management and key process control., So far, the company has created a food safety control chain from feed, livestock and poultry breeding all the way to dining table. In 2014, the “Beiyouzi” branded duck meat produced by the company was the first in China to 69 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd achieve end-to-end traceability; in 2015, Chengdu Xiwang Food Co., Ltd, a subsidiary of the company, became one of the second group of pilot companies for implementation of the national standard “food cold chain logistics traceability management requirements”. In 2016, the company passed the food technical standard certification by the British Retail Council (BRC), and was elected the Vice President of the China Council at the first plenary session of the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) in , becoming the first Chinese private enterprise to be selected as a member of the global board of directors of GFSI. In 2019, the 8th GFSI Focus Day China organized by the company was held, marking the first time a private enterprise organized this event since GFSI bega n holding the Focus Day China in 2012. At present, all food enterprises under the flag of the company have passed China-HACCP certification, and more than 60 food companies are finishing the BRC and Global-GAP certifications in succession. In addition, the company systematically explores the antibiotic-reducing and antibiotic-free possibilities in cooperation with multiple parties using the GFSI platform resources, and actively drives the popularization of antibiotic-reducing and antibiotic-free successful cases. VI. Risk of exchange rate fluctuations Currently, the global purchasing of raw materials for feed production is going deeper, and the feed enterprises have been increasingly affected by the exchange rate in terms of feed ingredients purchasing centered on foreign supply such as corn, soybean, whey powder, fish meal and DDGS. At the same time, the company has larger foreign operations than its Chinese peers, and in the foreign investment and overseas operations, the cross-border capital transaction and settlement amounts involved are growing, thus making the company more vulnerable to exchange rate fluctuations. Since 2019, the bumpy China -US relations caused the RMB/USD exchange rate to fluctuate frequently. Throughout 2020, the RMB exchange rate showed a trend of fall before rise as a whole and went down in a zigzag manner due to the impact of the COVID-19 in the first half of the year, but a new round of rapid appreciation started as China was the first to contain the pandemic and resumed work and business operations at a quickened pace in the second half of the year. Such violent turbulences produced impacts on the foreign exchange management of the company. Besides, in certain overseas countries where the company operates, the exchange rate of local currencies against USD depreciated remar kably due to the COVID-19, political turbulence and foreign exchange policy adjustments, which also produced an adverse impact on the company. Risk countermeasures: In response to the growing needs for overseas raw material purchasing and investment and operation, the company started building its Singaporean branch into an overseas commercial and trading center and investment and financing c enter in 2016, actively conducted international centralized purchasing of raw materials, foreign direct financing, supply chain finance, foreign exchange risk management and raw materials purchasing risk management on its Singaporean platform, in order to reduce the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on its cash flow in overseas operations. Meanwhile, the company further strengthene d its close connection and communication with overseas financial institutions, overseas agencies of the Chinese government and host governments to analyze the trends of local currencies’ exchange rates in host countries in time and ease the adverse impact of exchange rate fluctuations by means of direct investment in local currencies abroad, etc. VII. Risk of human resources The risk of human resources to the company is mainly manifested in the following four aspects. First, the pig farming scale of the company is now at a phase of leapfrog development. As at the end of the first half of 2021, the company’s pig farming team totaled 46,000 persons, and management radius of the company also increased as a result, therefore, there are tremendous pres sures and challenges in terms of rapidly training and retaining a large number of pig raisers. If the personnel recruitment, training and retention proves inadequate, potential risks will arise for the subsequent pig farm management and operation; second, as the company transforms from a traditional agricultural and animal husbandry enterprise to a agricultural, animal husbandry and food integrated enterprise, the company will face the risk of insufficient reserve of high-caliber operation and management personnel in new business domains and of personnel in food retail, engineering technology, IT and other emerging fields; third, along with the rising human cost, employee compensation has become an important factor in cost increase of the company; fourth, as a leading enterprise in China’s agricultural and animal husbandry industry, the company has cultivated a large number of outstanding employees in its multiye ar history, but the competition for human resources is intensifying due to the increasing competition in the industry and entry of new players of different backgrounds into the industry over the past years, meaning the brain drain will cause losses to the company and 70 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd subsequently affect the sustainable development of the company. Risk countermeasures: the company has looked at talent cultivation and organizational activation as a long-term strategic task of the company. In terms of recruiting talented pig farmers, the company expanded its recruitment channel beyond college graduates majored in agriculture and animal husbandry to recruit non-specialized college graduates and veterans. In terms of pig farmer training, the company broke down its daily production processes according to standards and internalized them using IT means. It offers specialized courses of different levels for general manager, farm managers all the way down to the newly recruited frontline workers through in-house pig farming universities and pig industry research institutes that offer high-frequency learning, training and teaching possibilities. Moreover, through the modern mentoring system inside pig farms and one-to-one mentoring and intensification by sophisticated employees, the time to cultivate new employees has been greatly shortened. The company further perfected its pig industry talent motivation system, whereby personnel at all levels in pig industry will receive industry-leading economic return based on their value output. In addition, in order to reduce the pressure on human cost, the company intensif ied its efforts to carry out projects such as pig farming in multistory buildings, intelligent pig farms and things of internet, which will significantly increase its efficiency of personnel utilization. The company also intensified its efforts to recruit talented people in strategic, new businesses, while actively conducting cross-industry training and learning to enrich the knowledge structure and capability structure of its existing personnel. The company realized a continuous increase in per capita efficiency by efficiency improvement, lean management, optimization of industry chain design and organization flattening; created the professional manager development channel with survival of the fittest by cons tructing the competition, selection and elimination mechanisms; and creates the growth community of employees and the company by constructing reasonable evaluation and incentive mechanisms and value sharing mechanisms. In 2019, the company implemented its restricted stock and stock option incentive plan for the first time to motivate its key technologists and key members of pig farming teams more for increased cohesion and corporate competiveness and to fully motivate senior management personnel an part of ke y employees of the company at work. 71 2021 Semiannual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd Section 4 Corporate Governance I.

Accounting currency The company and its domestic subsidiaries use RMB as accounting currency; its overseas subsidiaries use currencies in the pri mary economic environments in which they operate as accounting currencies, and overseas subsidiaries need to prepare financial statements in accounting currencies and financial statements converted into RMB. 5. Accounting treatment method for business combinations under common control and not under common control (1) Business combinations under common control A business combination in which companies participating in combination are all ultimately controlled by the same one or more parties before and after combination and such control is not temporary is a business combination under common control. Assets and liabilities acquired by the combing party in a business combination are measured at book value thereof in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party at the combination date. The share capital premium in the capital reserve is adjusted by the difference between the book value of net assets acquired and the book value of combination consideration paid (or total par value of shares issued); the retained earnings are adjusted if the share capital premium in capital reserve is insufficient for offsetting. The combination date is the date when the combining party actually acquires the control of the combined party. (2) Business combinations not under common control A business combination in which all parties participating in combination are not ultimately controlled by the same one or more parties before and after combination is a business combination not under common control. The sum of assets paid out by the acquiring party to acquire the control of the acquired party (including equities held in the acquired party before the purchase date), liabilities incurred or assumed and fair value of equity securities issued at the purchase date minus the share of identifiab le net assets of the acquired party at the purchase date that are acquired in combination is recognized as goodwill if positive or charged to the current non-business revenue if negative. The purchase date is the date when the acquiring party actually acquires the control of the acquired party. For a business combination not under common control that is realized step by step through multiple transactions, equities of the acquired party held prior to the purchase date are re-measured at the fair value of such equities as of the purchase date, and the difference between fair value and their book value is charged to the current investment income. Other comprehensive income involved in equities of the acquired party held prior to the purchase date and accounted for under the equity method and subs equently re-classifiable to profit and loss and other changes in ownership interest are transferred to the current investment income at the purchase date; where the equities held in the acquired party prior to the purchase date are equity instrument investments at fair value through other comprehensive income, other comprehensive income recognized before the purchase date is transferred to the reta ined earnings at the purchase date. (3) Treatment of related transaction costs in business combination The audit, legal service, appraisal consulting and other intermediary fees and other related management expenses incurred by the company for business combination are charged to the current profit and loss as and when incurred. The transaction costs of equity securities or debt securities issued by the company as the consideration for combination are charged to the initially recognized amount of the equity securities or debt securities. 264 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd 6. Method for preparation of consolidated financial statements (1) General principles The scope of consolidation of consolidated financial statements is determined based on control, including the company and subsidiaries controlled by the company. Control means the company has the power over the investee to enjoy variable return by participating in the related activities of the investee and has the ability to exert its power over the investee to influence the amount of its return. The company begins to include a subsidiary in the scope of consolidation as of the date when the company acquires the actual control of the subsidiary; the company ceases to include the subsidiary in the scope of consolidation as of the date of loss of the actual control. The equities, profit and loss and total comprehensive income attributable to minority shareholders of subsidiaries are separately presented in the shareholder equities of the consolidated balance sheet and after the items of net profits and total comprehe nsive income on the consolidated income statement respectively. If the current loss shared by minority shareholders of a subsidiary exceeds the share of minority shareholders in the beginning ownership interest of the subsidiary, its balance is still offset against the minority interests. When the accounting policy or accounting period adopted by any of its subsidiaries is inconsistent with that adopted by the company, necessary adjustments have been made to the financial statements of such subsidiary according to the company’s accounting policy or accounting period at the time of combination. All significant internal transactions, internal current accounts and unrealized profit and loss on internal transactions within the scope of consolidation have been offset when preparing the consolidated financia l statements. (2) Acquisition of subsidiaries by combination For a subsidiary acquired through business combination under common control, when preparing the consolidated current financia l statements, based on the book value of all assets and liabilities of the combined subsidiary in the financial statements of the ultimate controlling party, the combined subsidiary is treated as if it has been included in the scope of consolidation of the company when the ultimate controlling party of the company begins exercising control over it, and corresponding adjustments are made to the beginning amounts of the consolidated financial statements and previous comparative statements. For a subsidiary acquired through business combination not under common control, when preparing the consolidated current financial statements, based on the fair value of various identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired subsidiary as determined at the purchase date, the acquired subsidiary is included in the scope of consolidation of the company as of the purchase date. (3) Disposal of subsidiaries When the company loses its control over an existing subsidiary, the resulting gains or losses from disposal are charged to the investment income in the period during which the control is lost. Where the control over an existing subsidiary is lost due to disposal of part of equity investment or otherwise, in the consolidated financial statements, the remaining equities are re -measured at the fair value thereof at the date of loss of control; the sum of the consideration acquired by disposal of eq uities and the fair value of remaining equities minus the share of the net assets continuously calculated by the existing subsidiary from the date of purc hase as calculated at the original shareholding ratio and goodwill is charged to the investment income during the period in which the control is lost. Moreover, other comprehensive income and etc. related to the equity investment in the existing subsidiary are charge d to the current investment income at the time of loss of control, except for other comprehensive income resulting from changes in net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan re-measured by such existing subsidiary. Where the company disposes of its equity investment in a subsidiary step by step through multiple transactions until loss of control, distinction needs to be made as to whether all such transactions constitute a package deal. ①These transactions are entered into simultaneously or taking into account the mutual effect; ②These transactions can only achieve a complete commercial result if made together; ③The occurrence of a particular transaction depends upon occurrence of at least one other transaction; ④A particular transaction is uneconomical if considered individually, but is economical if considered together with other 265 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd transactions. Where various transactions do not constitute a package deal, each of the transactions before loss of control over the subsidiary is treated for accounting purpose according to the applicable principles described in the “Partial disposal of e quity investments in a subsidiary without loss of control’(as detailed in “Note V.6(4)). Where various transactions constitute a package deal, the various transactions are accounted for as a single transaction of d isposal of subsidiary and loss of control; however, the difference between each disposal price before loss of control and the share of net assets of such subsidiary corresponding to disposal of investment as continuously calculated as from the purchase date is charged to other comprehensive income in the consolidated financial statements, and transferred to the profit and loss in the period of loss of control all together at the time of loss of control. (4) Changes in minority interest The capital reserve in the consolidated financial statements is adjusted by both the difference between the long-term equity investment newly acquired by the company due to purchase of minority interest and the share of net assets of the subsidiary a s calculated at the newly-added shareholding ratio and the difference between the disposal price acquired from partial disposal of equity investments in subsidiaries without loss of control and the share of net assets of the subsidiaries corresponding to d isposal of long-term equity investments, with the retained earnings to be adjusted if the capital reserve is sufficient for offsetting purposes. 7. Classification of joint venture arrangements and accounting treatment method for joint operation Joint venture arrangement refers to an arrangement in which two or more participating parties share the control. The joint venture arrangements of the company consist of joint operation and joint venture according to the rights enjoyed and obligations assumed in the joint venture arrangements. Joint operation refers to a joint venture arrangement in which the company enjoys the assets related to such arrangement and assumes the liabilities related to such arrangement. Joint venture refers to the joint venture arrangeme nt in which the company only has the right to the net assets of such arrangement. As a party to joint operation, the recognizes assets separately held and liability separately assumed by the company and asse ts held jointly and liabilities assumed jointly by the company according to its share; recognizes the income from joint operation due to sale of products according to the company’s share; recognizes the expenses incurred separately by the company and recognizes the expenses incurred by joint operation according to the company’s share. The investments of the company in joint venture are accounted for using the equity method and treated according to “Note V. (15) Long-term equity investments” for accounting purposes. 8. Criteria for determination of cash and cash equivalents The cash and cash equivalents of the company cons ist of the cash on hand, deposits readily available for payment and investments held by the company that have a short term(generally due within 3 months of the purchase date), are highly liquid and easy to convert into a known amount of cash and have minimum risk of value change. 9. Foreign currency transactions and foreign currency statement translation (1)Foreign currency transactions The company converts the foreign currency transactions from foreign-currency amount into amount in functional currency at the spot exchange rate on the date of transaction, but the foreign exchange transactions or transactions involving foreign exchange that are incurred by the company are converted into amounts in accounting currency at the exchange rate actually used. At the balance sheet date, the foreign-currency monetary items are converted at the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date, with 266 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd the resulting exchange difference generally charged to the current profit and loss, except that: ①The exchange difference resulting from foreign-currency special borrowings related to acquisition of assets that meet the capitalization conditions is treated according to the principles for capitalization of borrowing costs; ② the exchange difference from hedging instruments used for effective hedging of net investments in overseas operations is charged to other comprehensive income and will not be recognized as current profit and loss until disposal of the net investments; ③ the exchange difference resulting from changes in book balances of foreign-currency monetary items available for sale other than amortized costs is charged to other comprehensive income. Foreign-currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost are still measured at the amount in accounting currency converted at the spot exchange rate when the transaction occurs. Foreign-currency non-monetary items measured at fair value are converted at the spot exchange rate at the date of determination of fair value, with the difference charged to the current profit and loss or other comprehensive income. (2) Translation of foreign currency financial statements When preparation of consolidated financial statements involves overseas operations, if there are foreign-currency monetary items that substantially constitute net investments in overseas operations, the exchange difference resulting from changes in exchange ra te is recognized as other comprehensive income as the “foreign currency statement translation difference”; when disposing of overse as operations, such exchange different is charged to the current profit and loss from disposal. The method for foreign currency statement translation of overseas operations is as follows: ①The items of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet are converted at the spot exchange rate at the date of balance sheet; all items of ownership interest other than the item of “undistributed profits” are converted at the spot exchange rate when incurred, a nd the item of “undistributed profits” is calculated and presented according to items of net profits and profit distribution; the difference in total amount of items of assets, liabilities and ownership interest after conversion is recognized as other comprehensive inc ome, after being treated as the foreign currency statement translation difference. When an overseas operation is disposed of and the control thereof is lost, the foreign currency statement translation difference presented under the item of other comprehensive income in the balance sheet and related to such overseas operation is transferred to the current profit and loss from disposal in entirety or according to the ratio of such overseas operation disposed of. ②The items of income, cost and expense and others in the income statement are converted at the exchange rate appropriate to the spot exchange rate when the transaction occurs. ③The items in the cash flow statement that reflect the incurred amounts are converted at the exchange rate appropriate to the spot exchange rate when the transaction occurs, with the effects of exchange rate changes on cash presented separately in the cash flow statement. 10. Financial instruments Financial instruments refer to the instruments that form financial assets of a party and form the financial liabilities or equities of other parties. (1) Classification of financial instruments Financial instruments include financial assets and financial liabilities, consisting of cash at bank an d on hand, debt investments, equity investments other than long-term equity investments, receivables, payables, borrowings, bonds payable and share capital, etc. (2) Recognition and initial measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities The company recognizes financial assets and financial liabilities in the balance sheet when it becomes a party to the related financial instrument contract terms. All financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value at the time of initial recognition, except for accounts receivable that don’t have significant financing component. For financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, related transaction costs are directly charged to the current profit and loss; for other types of financial assets or financial liabilities, related 267 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd transaction costs are charged to the initially recognized amounts. Accounts receivable that have significant financing component are initially measured by the company at the transaction price determined according to the accounting policies contained in Note V(33) (3) Classification and subsequent measurement of financial assets ①Classification of financial assets The company generally classifies financial assets into different types at the t ime of initial recognition according to the business model for management of financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets: financial assets measured at amortized cost, financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Unless the company changes its business model for management of financial assets, in which case all related financial assets affected are reclassified the first day during the first reporting period after the change in the business model, financial assets may not be reclassified after initial recognition. The company classifies a financial asset that meets all of the following conditions at the same time and is not designate d as at fair value through profit and loss as a financial asset measured at amortized cost. A. The business model of the company for management of such financial asset aims at receiving contractual cash flow; B. The contractual terms of such financial asset provide that the cash flow arising on a particular date consists solely of payment of principal and interest based on outstanding principal amount. The company classifies a financial asset that meets all of the following conditions at the same time and is not designated as at fair value through profit and loss as a financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income: A. The business model of the company for management of such financial asset aims at both receiving contractual cash flow and selling such financial asset; B. The contractual terms of such financial asset provide that the cash flow arising on a particular date consists solely of payment of principal and interest based on outstanding principal amount. For equity instrument investments held not for trading, the company may irrevocably designate them as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income at the time of initial recognition. Such designation is made on the basis of individual investments and the re lated investments meet the definition of equity instrument from the perspective of issuer. Apart from the aforesaid financial assets measured at amortized cost and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, the company classifies all financial assets as financial assets at fair value through profit and loss. At the time of initial recognition, if the accounting mismatch can be eliminated or significantly reduced, the company may irrevocably designate financial assets that would otherwise be measured at amortized cost or financial assets that would otherwise be at fair value through other comprehensive income as financial assets at fair value through profit and loss. The business model for management of financial assets refers to how the company manages the financial assets in order to generate cash flow. The business model determines whether the source of cash flow from financial assets managed by the company is receiving contractual cash flow or selling financial assets or both. The company determines its business model for management of financial assets pursuant to objective facts and based on the specific business objectives determined by the key management personnel for management of financial assets. The company assesses the contractual cash flow characteristics of financial asses in order to determine whether the contractual cash flow from related financial assets at a particular date consists solely of payment of principal and interest based on outstan ding principal amount. Of them, the principal refers to the fair value of a financial asset at the time of initial recognition; interest includes the time value of currency, the credit risk associated with outstanding principal amount during a specific period and the consideration for other basic loan risks, costs and profits. In addition, the company assesses the contractual terms that might result in changes to the time distribution or amount of contractual cash flow from a financial asset in order to determine whether it meets the requirements of the aforesaid contractual cash flow characteristics. ②Subsequent measurement of financial assets A. Financial assets measured at fair value though profit or loss 268 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd After the initial recognition, such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value and the resulting gains or losses (including interest and dividend revenue) are charged to the current profit and loss, unless such financial assets are part of hedging relationship. B. Financial assets measured at amortized cost After the initial recognition, such financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The gains or losses resulting from a financial asset that is measured at amortized cost and is not part of any hedging relationship are charged to the current profit and loss when derecognized, amortized according to effective interest rate method or recognized with respe ct to impairment. C. Debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income After the initial recognition, such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. The interest, impairment loss or gain and exchange gain or loss calculated using the effective interest rate method are charged to the current profit and loss, with other gains or losses charged to other comprehensive income. At the time of de-recognition, the accumulated gains or losses previously charged to other comprehensive income are transferred out of other comprehensive income and charged to the current profit and loss. D. Equity instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income After the initial recognition, such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. The dividend revenue is charged to profit and loss, and other gains or losses are charged to other comprehensive income. At the time of de-recognition, the accumulated gains or losses previously charged to other comprehensive income are transferred out of other comprehensive income and charged to the retained earnings. (4) Classification and subsequent measurement of financial liabilities The company classifies financial liabilities into financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. ① Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss Such financial liabilities include financial liabilities held for trading (including derivative instruments that are financial liabilities) and financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss. After the initial recognition, such financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value, and the resulting gains or losses (including interest expense) except otherwise related to hedge accounting are charged to the current profit and loss. ② Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost After the initial recognition, such financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate me thod. (5)Offset of financial assets and financial liabilities Financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the balance sheet respectively, without mutual offset. However, where all of the following conditions are met at the same time, financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the balance sheet at the net amount after mutual offset. ①The company has the legal right to offset the recognized amounts and such legal right is currently enforceable; ②The company plans to make netting settlement or realize such financial assets and repay such financial liabilities at the same time. (6) De-recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities Such financial asset is derecognized when one of the following conditions is met: ①The contractual right to receive the cash flow from such financial asset terminates; ②Such financial asset has been transferred and almost all risk and reward on the ownership of such financial asset has been transferred by the company to the transferee, ③Such financial asset has been transferred and the company has waived the control of such financial asset although the company has not transferred or retained almost all risk and reward on the ownership of the financial asset. When the transfer of a financial asset fully meets the conditions for de-recognition, the company charges the difference between the following two amounts to the current profit and loss: ①The book value of the financial asset being transferred at the date of de-recognition; ②The sum of consideration received due to transfer of financial asset and the amount in the accumulated amount of fair value 269 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd change previously directly charged to the other comprehensive income that corresponds to the derecognized portion (if the financial assets involved in transfer are debt investments at fair value through other comprehensive income). When the present obligations for a financial liability (or a part of it) have been released, the company derecognizes such financial liability (or such part of financial liability). (7)Impairment of financial assets ①The company conducts impairment accounting treatment and recognizes loss provision for the following items based on expected credit loss: A. Financial assets measured at amortized cost; B. Contract assets; C. Debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income; C. Lease receivables Other financial assets measured at fair value in the company’s possession are not applicable to the expected credit loss mode l, including debt investments or equity instrument investments at fair value through profit or loss, equity instrument investments designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income, and derivative financial assets. ② Measurement of expected credit loss Expected credit loss refers to the weighted average of credit loss from financial instruments with the risk of default as weight. Credit loss refers to the difference between all contractual cash flows of the company discounted by the original actual interest rate and receivable according to contract and all cash flows expected to be received, i.e., the present value of all cash shortfalls. When measuring the expected credit loss, the longest period that the company needs to consider is the longest term of contract with respect to which the company faces credit risk (including considering the renewal option). Expected credit loss during the entire duration refers to the expected credit loss resulting from any and all possible events of default during the entire expected duration of financial instruments. Expected credit loss within the next 12 months refers to the expected credit loss resulting from possible events of default under financial instruments within 12 months after the date of balance sheet (or the expected duration, if the expected duration of financial instrument is less than 12 months), which is part of the expected credit loss during the entire duration. For accounts receivable, lease receivables, other receivables and contract assets (collectively, “receivables”), the company always measures their loss provision at the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss during the entire duration. When an individual financial asset cannot assess the information about expected credit loss with reasonable cost, the company classifies the receivable portfolios according to the credit risk characteristics and calculates expected credit loss on the basis of portfolio. For re ceivables classified as risk portfolio, the company calculates the expected credit loss from the aforesaid financial assets based on the historical credit loss experience and using the provision matrix and other methods, with related historical experience adjusted based on the specific factors of borrower at the balance sheet date and the assessment of current situation and forecast future economic condition. Except for accounts receivable, lease receivables, other receivables and contract assets, the company measures the loss provision for the financial instruments that meet one of the following circumstances at the amount equivalent to expected credit loss within the next 12 months, and measures the loss provision for other financial instruments at the amount equivalent to expected credit loss during the entire duration: A. Such financial instrument only has a relatively low credit risk at the balance sheet date; B. The credit risk of such financial instrument has not significantly increased since the initial recognition. Having a relatively low credit risk; If the default risk of a financial instrument is relatively low, the borrower is highly able to perform its contractual cash flow obligations in short term and the ability of the borrower to perform its contractual cash flow obligations is not necessarily reduced even if there are adverse changes to the economic situation and operating environment in a relatively long period, such financial instrument is considered as having a relatively low credit risk. Significant increase in credit risk: The company determines the relative changes in default risk during the expected duration of a financial instrument by comparing the default risk of the financial instrument at the balance sheet date and the default risk at the date of initial recognition, in order to assess whether the credit risk of the financial instrument has been significantly increased. 270 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd When determining whether the credit risk has been significantly increased, the company considers reasonable and well-founded information readily available without incurring unnecessary additional costs or efforts, including forward-looking information. The information considered by the company includes: A. The circumstances in which the debtor fails to pay the principal and interest by the expiry date of contract; B. Severe deteriorations of external or internal credit ratings of the financial instrument (if any) that have occurred or are expected; C. Severe deterioration of the business results of the debtor that have occurred or are expected; D. Existing or expected changes to the technology, market, economic or legal environment that have material adverse effect on the debtor’s ability to make repayments to this company. According to the nature of a financial instrument, the company assesses whether the credit risk has been significantly increased based on individual financial instruments or financial instrument portfolio. When assessing based on financial instrument portfolio , the company may classify financial instruments based on the common credit risk characteristics. ③Financial assets with respect to which credit impairment has occurred The company assesses whether the financial assets measured at amortized cost and debt investments at fair value through other comprehensive income have incurred credit impairment at the balance sheet date. When one or several events that have adverse effect on the expected future cash flow of a financial asset occur, such financial asset becomes a financial asset with respe ct to which credit impairment has occurred. The evidence that a financial asset has incurred credit impairment includes the following observable information: A. The issuer or debtor is experiencing significant financial difficulties; B. The debtor has violated a contract, such as default or delinquent in repayment of interest or principal; C. The company gives the debtor concessions that would otherwise not be made in any circumstances out of consideration for economy or contract related to the financial difficulties of the debtor; D. The debtor is highly likely to go bankrupt or conduct other financial reorganization; E. The financial difficulties of the issuer or debtor have resulted in disappearance of active markets for such financial ass et. ④Presentation of provision for expected credit loss To reflect the changes in credit risk of a financial instrument since its initial recognition, the company re -measures the expected credit loss at each balance sheet date, as a result of which the increased or reversed amount of loss provision is charged to the current profit and loss as impairment loss or gain. For a financial asset measured at amortized cost, the loss provision is credited against the book value of such financial asset indicated in the balance sheet; for a debt investment that is measured at fair value and whose changes are charged to other comprehensive income, the company recognizes its loss provision in other comprehensive income, without charging against the book value of such financial asset. ⑤Write-off If the company no longer reasonably expects that the contractual cash flow of a financial asset can be recovered in full or in part, the company directly writes down the book balance of such financial asset. Such write-down constitutes de-recognition of related financial assets. Such circumstance usually arises when the company determines the debtor has no asset or income source that can generate sufficient cash flow to repay the written-down amount. However, the written-down financial asset might still be affected by the enforcement activities related to collection of amounts due by the company. The written-down financial asset that is subsequently recovered is charged to the profit or loss in the period of recovery as the reversal of impairment loss. (8) Equity instruments The consideration received by the company from issue of equity instruments is charged to the shareholder equity after deduction of the transaction costs. The shareholder equity is reduced by the consideration and transaction costs paid to repurchase the equity instruments of the company. When repurchasing the shares in the company, the shares repurchased are managed as treasury shares and any and all expenses incurred to repurchase shares are transferred to the costs of treasury shares, while the same are registered at the same time for future 271 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd reference. Treasury shares do not participate in profit distribution and are presented as the item of allowance for shareholder equity in the balance sheet. When cancelling treasury shares, the share capital is reduced by the total nominal value of cancelled stock, and the portion of the costs of treasury shares in excess of the total nominal value is charged against the capital reserve (share capital premium), surplus reserve and undistributed profits in succession; where the costs of treasury shares are lower than the total nominal value, the capital reserve (share capital premium) is increased by the portion lower than the total nominal value. When transferring treasury shares, the capital reserve (share capital premium) is increased by the portion of the transfer income in excess of the costs of treasury shares; the portion lower than the costs of treasury shares is charged against the capital re serve (share capital premium), surplus reserve and undistributed profits in succession. (9) Convertible instruments ① Convertible instruments containing equity component For convertible instruments issued by the company that are convertible into equity shares and with respect to which the numbe r of shares issued and the amount of consideration at the time of conversion are fixed, the company treat them as compound instruments containing liability and equity components. At the time of initial recognition, the company splits related liability and equity components and first determines the fair value of the liability component (including fair value of non-equity embedded derivative instruments that might be contained) and then deduct the fair value of liability component from the fair value of compound instrument and charges results to equities as the value of equity component. The transaction costs incurred to issue compound instruments are allocated between the liability component and equity component according to respective ratios of the total issue price. After the initial recognition, the liability component not designated as at fair value through profit or loss is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The equity component is no longer measured after initial measurement. When converting a convertible instrument, the company transfers the liability component and equity component to related accounts of equities. When a convertible instrument is redeemed, the price paid for redemption and transaction costs incurred are allocated to the equity and liability components. The method for allocating the price and transaction costs is consistent with the allocation method adopted when this instrument is issued. After allocating the price and transaction costs, their difference with the book value of equity and liability components is charged to equities if related to equity component or charged to profit and loss if related to liability component. ② Other convertible instruments containing no equity component For other convertible instruments issued by the company and containing no equity component, at the time of initial recognition, the derivative instrument component of the convertible instrument is measured at fair value and the remaining part is treated as the initially recognized amount of principal debt instrument. After initial recognition, the derivative instrument component is measured at fair value and the gains or losses resulting from change in fair value are charged to current profit and loss. The principal debt instruments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. When converting a convertible instrument, the company transfers the principal debt instrument and derivative instrument compo nent to the accounts related to equities. When a convertible instrument is redeemed, the difference between the price paid for redemption and the book value of the principal debt instrument and derivative instrument component is charged to the profit and loss. t (10) Preferred shares and perpetual bonds The company, based on the contractual terms of preferred shares and perpetual bonds issued and the economic substance reflected by them and in light of the definitions of financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments, classifies these fina ncial instruments or their components into financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments at the time of initial recognition. The company treats preferred shares and perpetual bonds issued by it and containing both equity component and liability compo nent according to the same accounting policies as convertible instruments containing equity component. The company treats preferred shares and perpetual bonds issued by it and containing no equity component according to the same accounting policies as other 272 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd convertible instruments containing no equity component. The company charges preferred shares and perpetual bonds issued by it and classifiable as equity instruments to equities at the amount actually received. Where dividends or interest are distributed during the period of existence, they are treated as profit distribution. Where preferred shares and perpetual bonds are redeemed according to contractual terms, they are charged against equities at the redemption price. 11. Inventories The company shall comply with the disclosure requirements set forth in “Shenzhen Stock Exchange’s Industry Information Disclosure Guidance No. 1---Listed Companies Engaged in Livestock, Poultry and Aquaculture Businesses”. (1)Classification of inventories Inventories are classified into raw materials, packaging materials, products in progress, merchandises in stock, low -value consumables, goods shipped, outsourced processed supplies, consumptive biological assets and revolving materials. The specific accounting policy for consumptive biological assets is detailed in “Note V (20) Biological assets”. (2)Inventory costs and valuation method for inventories shipped: Inventories are initially measured at the actual cost at the time of acquisition. Inventory costs include purchase cost, processing cost and other expenditures incurred to bring the inventories to the current location and state. For inventories shipped, costs ar e carried over using the one-off weighted average method at the end of month. (3)Basis of determination of net realizable value of inventory and method for accrual of inventory revaluation reserve At the end of period, when the inventory cost is lower than the net realizable value , the inventory is measured at cost; when the inventory cost is higher than the net realizable value, the inventory is measured at net realizable value, and the inventory revalua tion reserve accrues by the difference of the cost over the net realizable value and is charged to the current profit and loss. The net realizable value refers to the amount of the estimated selling price of inventory minus the costs estimated to incur up to the time of completion, the estimated selling costs and related taxes and charges in the daily activities. For inventories that are numerous and have a low unit price, the inventory revaluation reserve accrues by the inventory type. For inventories having the same or similar end use or purpose and related to the product series produced and distributed in the s ame area and difficult to valuate separately from other items of such product series, the inventory deprecation reserve accrues on a consolidated basis; for other inventories, the inventory revaluation reserve accrues by the difference the cost of individual inventory item in excess of its net realizable value. At the balance sheet date, if the factors affecting the previously written-down inventory value have disappeared, the written-down amount is restored and reversed to the extent of amount of previously accrued inventory revaluation reserve, with the reversed amount charged to the current profit and loss. (4)Inventory system The inventory follows the perpetual inventory system. (5)Amortization method for low-value consumables and packaging materials Low-value consumables and packaging materials are amortized using the one-off amortization method when requis itioned. Revolving materials that have large sums and a relatively long service life are amortized using the stage -wise average amortization method. 12. Contract assets In the contracts between the company and its customers, the company has the right to collect contract prices for goods transferred and related services provided to customers, while assuming the performance obligation to transfer the goods or services to customers. The right of the company to collect consideration for goods or services transferred to its customers (and such right depends upon 273 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd factors other than elapse of time) is presented as contract asset and impairment of contract asset accrues based on the expec ted credit loss. The right of the company to unconditionally (only dependent upon elapse of time) collect consideration from customers is presented as receivables. The obligation of the company to transfer goods or services to customers for consideration received or receivable from its customers is presented as contract liability. When the company performs its obligation to transfer goods or provide services to customers, the contract liability is recognized as revenue. The company presents contract assets and contract liabilities under the same contract as a net amount after mutually offsetting them. 13. Contract cost (1)Categories and recognition of contract cost Contract cost includes the incremental cost incurred to acquire contracts and contract performance cost. The incremental cost incurred to acquire contracts refers to the cost that the company would not incur if the contracts are not acquired (such as sales commission, etc). If such cost is expected to be recovered, the company recognizes it an asset by treating it as contract acquisition cost. Other expenditures incurred by the company to acquire a contract other than the incremental cost expected to be recovered are charged to the current profit and loss as and when incurred. Where the cost incurred to perform a contract that is outside the scope of inventories or otherwise not subject to other ente rprise accounting standards and meets all of the following conditions, the company recognizes it as an asset by treating it as contract performance cost: ①These costs are directly related to a current or expected contract, including direct labor cost, direct material cost, manufacture cost (or similar costs), costs expressed to be borne by customer and other costs incurred solely due to such contract. ②Such cost has increased the resources to be used by the company for performing its performance obligations in the future; ③Such cost is expected to be recovered. (2) Amortization and impairment of contract cost The assets for which contract acquisition cost is recognized and the assets for which contract performance cost is recognized (hereinafter, “assets related to contract cost”) are amortized on the same basis as recognition of revenue from goods or services related to such assets and charged to the current profit and loss. They are charged to current profit and loss as and when incurred if the amortization period is no more than one year. When the book value of an asset related to contract cost is higher than the difference between the following two items, the c ompany makes impairment provision for the excess portion and recognizes it as asset impairment loss: ①The remaining consideration that the company expects to receive due to transfer of goods or services related to such asset; ②The cost estimated to be incurred to transfer such related goods or services. After making the impairment provision, if the factors of impairment in the previous period changed such that the aforesaid difference of the ① minus ② is higher than the book value of such asset, the asset impairment provision previously made is reversed and charged to the current profit and loss, provided that the book value of the asset after reversal shall not exceed the book value of such asset at the reversal date should the impairment provision not have been made. 14. Assets held for sale (1) Held for sale When the company recovers the book value a noncurrent asset or disposal group mainly by selling rather than continuously using it, such noncurrent asset or disposal group is classified as held for sale. Disposal group refers to a group of assets that are disposed of through sale or otherwise as a whole in a single transaction, and the liabilities transferred in such transaction that re directly related to these assets. 274 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd The company classifies a noncurrent asset or disposal group that meets both of the following conditions as held-for-sale category: When the company recovers the book value a noncurrent asset or disposal group mainly by selling rather than continuously using it, such noncurrent asset or disposal group is classified as held for sale. ①Such noncurrent asset or disposal group is readily available for sale under the current conditions according to the customary practices of sale of such type of assets or disposal groups in similar transactions; ②The sale is highly likely to occur, i.e., the company has made a resolution on a sale plan, has executed legally binding purchase agreement with other parties and expects that the sale will be completed within a year. The company initially and subsequently measures noncurrent assets or disposal groups held for sale at the book value and the net amount of fair value minus the selling costs, whichever is lower, and recognizes the difference of book value higher than the net amount of fair value minus selling costs as the asset impairment loss and charges it to the current profit and loss. (2) Discontinued operations The company defines a component that meets one of the following conditions and can be separately distinguished and has been disposed of or classified as held for sale by the company as discontinued operation: ①Such component represents an independent main business or a separate main operating region; ②Such component is part of a related plan for proposed disposal of an independent main business or a separate main operating region; ③Such component is a subsidiary acquired specifically for resale. For currently presented discontinued operations, the company presents profit and loss from continuous operations and profit a nd loss from discontinued operations respectively in the current income statement, and presents information previously presented as profit and loss from continuous operations in the income statement of comparative period as profit and loss from discontinued operat ions during the comparable accounting period again. 15. Long-term equity investments Long-term equity investments refer to equity investments that have control, common control or significant influence over the investee, including investments in subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures. The equity investments whereby the company ha s no control, common control or significant influence over the investee are accounted for as financial assets available for sale or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, with respect to which the accounting policies are detailed in “Note V. (10) Financial instruments”. (1) Judgment criteria for common control and significant influence Common control refers to the control shared by the company over a particular arrangement according to applicable covenants, provided that the related activities under such arrangement may not be decided without the unanimous consent of participants sharing the control. Judging whether there is common control disregards the protective rights enjoyed by a participating party. Where the company and other joint venture parties jointly exert common control over the investee and enjoy the right to the net assets of the investee, the investee is deemed a joint venture of the company. Significant influence refers to the power to participate in decision making regarding the financial and business policies of an enterprise, but not enough to control or jointly control the formulation of these policies with other parties. Where the company is able to exert significant influence on the investee, the investee is deemed an affiliate of the company. When the company directly or indirectly through subsidiaries holds more than 20% (inclusive) but less than 50% of the voting shares in the investee, the c ompany is generally considered as having significant influence over the investee, unless there is conclusive evidence hat the company cannot participate in the production and business decisions of the investee. When the company holds less than 20% of the voting shares in the investee, but one or several of the following circumstances exist, the company will give overall consideration to all facts and circumstances and make judgments about whether it has significant influence or not: ①The representation of the company on the board of directors or similar governing body of the investee; 275 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd ②Participation in the financial and business policy making process of the investee; ③Material transactions between the company and the investee; ④Assignment of managers to the investee; ⑤Provision of key technical data to the investee. (2)Determination of initial investment cost ①Long-term equity investment resulting from business combination For a long-term equity investment resulting from business combination under common control, the share of the book value of ownership interest of the combined party in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party at the date of combination is treated as the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment. The share capital premium in the capital reserve is adjusted by the difference between the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment and the book value of consideration paid; the retained earnings are adjusted if the share capital premium in the capital reserve is insufficient for offsetting purposes. For a long-term equity investment resulting from business combination not under common control, the fair values of assets paid out, liabilities incurred or assumed and equity securities issued by the company to acquire the control over the acquired party at the purchase date is treated as the initial investment cost of such investment. ②Long-term equity investments acquired by otherwise than business combination With respect to long-term equity investments acquired by otherwise than business combination, at the time of initial recognition, for a long-term equity investment acquired by payment in cash, the company treats the purchase price actually paid as the initial investment cost; for a long-term equity investment acquired by issuance of equity securities, the company treats the fair value of equity securities issued as the initial investment cost. (3) Subsequent measurement and profit and loss recognition method Long-term equity investments whereby the company exerts control over the investee are accounted for using the cost method; a long-term equity investment in affiliates and joint ventures is accounted for using the equity method, unless such investment meets the conditions for being held for sale. ①Long-term equity investment accounted for using the cost method When accounted for using the cost method, the long-term equity investments are valuated at the initial investment cost, with the costs of long-term equity investments adjusted by the additional or recovered investments. Except for the price actually paid at the time of acquisition of investment or cash dividends or profits included in the consideration that have already been declared but not yet distributed, the current income on investment is recognized at the cash dividends or profits declared and distributed by the investee that the company is entitled to. ②Long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method When accounting for using the equity method, the initial investment cost of long-term equity investment is not adjusted if the investment cost of a long-term equity investment is higher than the company’s share of fair value of identifiable net assets of the investee at the time of investment; ff the investment cost of long-term equity investment is less than the share of fair value of identifiable net assets of the investee at the time of investment, the resulting difference is charged to the current non-business income, while adjusting the cost of long-term equity investment. When accounting for under the equity method and during the period of holding of a long-term equity investment, the company recognizes the investment income and other comprehensive income respectively at the share of net gains and losses and other comprehensive income realized by the investee, while the book value of long-term equity investment is adjusted at the same time; the share is calculated at the profits or cash dividends declared and distributed by the investee, and the book value of the long-term equity investment is reduced accordingly; for changes in ownership interest of the investee other than net profits and losses, other comprehensive income and profit distribution, the company charges its share of them to the capital reserve while adjusting the book value of the long-term equity investment. When recognizing the share of changes in net profits and losses, other comprehensive income and other ownership interests realized 276 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd by the investee, the company, based on the fair value of identifiable net assets of the investee at the time of acquisition of investment, recognizes investment income and other comprehensive income after making necessary adjustments according to the company’s accounting policies or accounting period; the aforesaid adjustments to the financial statements of the investee shall follow the principle of materiality. The portion of unrealized profit and loss attributable to the company and arising from internal transactions between the company and its affiliates and joint ventures is calculated at the ratio that the company is entitled to and then offset at the time of accounting under the equity method. The unrealized loss from internal transactions, where there is evidence that such loss is related asset impairment loss, is recognized in full and is not offset. When recognizing the net losses incurred by the investee that the company shall share, the company recognizes such net losses until the book value of long-term equity investment and other long-term equities that substantially constitute the net investment in the investee are written down to zero, In addition, if the company has the obligation to be liable for additional losses of the investee, the estimated liabilities are recognized according to the expected obligations and charged to the current investment loss. Where the investee realizes net profits in the subsequent periods, the company resumes recognition of the revenue share after the revenue share covers the unrecognized share of losses. (4)Conversion of accounting method for long-term equity investments ①Conversion from fair value measurement to equity method accounting Where an equity investment originally held in an investee (without control, common control or significant influence) is treated for accounting according to the financial instrument recognition and measurement standards, and the shareholding ratio is increas ed due to additional investment or otherwise, thus allowing the company to exert common control or significant influenc e over the investee, when accounting for using the equity method instead, the company treats the fair value of original equity investment determined according to the financial instrument recognition and measurement standards plus the fair value of consideration paid to acquire additional investment as the initial investment cost accounted for using the equity method instead. Where the originally held equity investment is classified as other equity instrument investment, the accumulated fair value change originally charged to other comprehensive income shall be transferred to the retained earnings. Then, the initial investment cost derived by the aforesaid calculation is compared with the share of fair value of identifiable net assets of the investee at the date of additional investment as calculated and determined at the whole new shareholding ratio after additional investment, with no adjustments to the book va lue of the long-term equity investment if the former is larger than the latter; if the former is less than the latter, the difference shall adjust the book value of long-term equity investment and be charged to the current non-business revenue. ②Conversion from fair value measurement or equity method accounting to cost method accounting For an equity investment originally held in the investee without control, common control or significance and treated for accounting according to financial instrument recognition and measurement standards, or long-term equity investments originally held in affiliates or joint ventures, where they become able to exert control over the investee due to additional investments or otherwise, they are treated as long-term equity investments formed from business combination. ③Conversion from equity method accounting to fair value measurement Where a long-term equity investment originally held in the investee with common control or significant influence becomes unable to exert common control or significant influence over the investee due to decreased shareholding ratio as a result of partial disposal or otherwise, the remaining equity investments are treated according to financial instrument recognition and measurement standar ds instead, and the difference between the fair value and book value at the date of loss of common control or significant influence is charged to the current profit and loss. Other comprehensive income originally accounted for using the equity method should be treated on the same basis as the investee directly disposes of related assets or liabilities when ceasing to be accounted for using the equity method, while ownership interest recognized due to changes in ownership interest of the investee other than net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution is transferred in full to the current investment income when ceasing to be accounted for using the equity method. ④Conversion from cost method to equity method or fair value measurement Where control of an investee is lost due to disposal of part of equity investments or otherwise, when preparing individual financial 277 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd statements, the remaining equities after disposal, if able to exert common control or significant influence over the investee, are accounted for using the equity method instead, and such remaining equities are adjusted as if they have been accounted for us ing the equity method as of the time of acquisition. Where the remaining equities after disposal cannot exert common control or significant influence over the investee, they are measured at fair value according to the financial instrument recognition and measurement standards, and the difference between their fair value and book value at the time of loss of control is charged to the current investment income. (5) Impairment of long-term equity investments The company judges at the balance sheet date whether there is any indication of impairment of long-term equity investments and, if yes, conducts impairment test as if they are individual long-term investments. If the results of impairment test indicate the recoverable amount of a long-term equity investment is lower than its book value, the impairment provision is made at the difference and charged to the profit and loss. (6) Disposal of long-term equity investments When disposing of a long-term equity investment, the difference between its book value and price actually acquired is charged to the current profit and loss. For a long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method, when disposing such investment in full, related other comprehensive income originally accounted for under the equity method should be treated on the same basis as the investee directly disposes of related assets or liabilities, and ownership interest recognized due to changes in ownership inte rest of the investee other than net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution should be transferred in fu ll to the current investment income when ceasing to be accounted for using the equity method; in case of partial disposal and remaining equitie s still accounted for using the equity method, the other comprehensive income originally recognized should be tre ated on the same basis as the investee directly disposes of related assets or liabilities and carried over pro rata, while ownership interest recognize d due to changes in ownership interest of the investee other than net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution should be carried over to the current investment income pro rata. When the enterprise partially disposes of long-term equity investments held and conversion of accounting method occurs, related accounting treatment is as shown in the aforesaid provisions regarding conversion of accounting methods for long-term equity investments. 16. Investment properties Measurement model for investment properties Measurement using the cost method Depreciation or amortization method (1) Classification of investment properties Investment property refers to real property held to earn rent or for capital appreciation or both, including leased land use right, land use right held for transfer after appreciation and leased buildings, etc. (2) Measurement of investment properties Purchased investment property is initially measured at the cost at the time of acquisition, which consists of the purchase price, related taxes and expenses directly attributable to such asset; the costs of investment property built by the company consist of the expenditures required to bring the investment property to the intended state of usability. The subsequent expenditures relate d to investment properties are charged to the costs of investment properties if the economic benefits related to such asset are highly likely to flow to the company and its costs can be reliably measured. Other subsequent expenditures are charged to the current profit and loss as and when incurred. The company measures investment properties using the cost model, i.e., presenting them in the balance sheet at the cost minus accumulated depreciation, amortization and impairment provision. The costs of investment properties are depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over the service life after deduction of the estimated net residual value and accumulated impairment 278 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd provision, unless the investment properties meet the conditions for being held for sale. The depreciation policy for leased buildings is the same as that for house buildings in the fixed assets, and the amortization policy for leased land is the same as that for land use right in the intangible assets. (3) Impairment of investment properties At the balance sheet date, the company examines investment properties for any indication of impairment and conducts impairment tests when there is any indication of impairment, and makes impairment provision at the difference of recoverable amount lowe r than the book value, which will not be reversed in subsequent accounting periods once made. 17. Fixed assets (1) Conditions for recognition Fixed assets of the company are tangible assets held by the company for production of commodities, provision of services, leasing or business management and that have a service life of more than one accounting year. A fixed asset is recognized when the economic benefits related to such fixed asset are highly likely to flow to the company and the cost of such fixed asset can be reliably measured. Fixed assets are initially measured at actual cost at the time of acquisition. The initial cost of a purchased fixed asset includes purchase price, related taxes and expenditures incurred to bring such asset to the intended usable state and attributable to such asset. The initial cost of a self-built fixed asset is determined by the necessary expenditures incurred to bring such asset to the intended usable state. The subsequent expenditures related to a fixed asset including expenditures related to replacement of a particular component of the fixed asset, are capitalized and charged to the costs of fixed assets if the economic benefits related to such fixed asset are highly likely to flow to the company and its costs can be reliably measured, while deducting the book va lue of the replaced portion; expenditures related to daily maintenance of fixed assets are charged to current profit and loss as and when incurred. (2) Depreciation method Category Depreciation method Depreciation period Residual value rate Annual depreciation rate Houses and buildings Straight-line method 5-40 years 5% 2.38%-19% Machinery and Straight-line method 3-15 years 5% 6.33%- 31.67% equipment Transport equipment Straight-line method 3-10 years 5% 9.50%-31.67% Others Straight-line method 3-5 years 5% 19.00%-31.67% A fixed asset is depreciated over its estimated service life using the straight-line method at its entry value minus the estimated net residual value. For a fixed asset with respect to which impairment provision accrues, the depreciation amount is determined in the future period at the book value net of impairment provision and according the remaining service life. The service lives, estimated net residual value rates and annual depreciation rates of various fixed assets are shown in the above table. The company determines the service life and estimated net residual value of a fixed asset based on the nature and usage of the fixed asset, and reviews the service lives, estimated net residual values and depreciation methods for fixed assets at least at the end of each year. (3) Impairment of fixed assets At the balance sheet date, the company accrues fixed asset impairment provision by the difference of the recoverable amount of a 279 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd fixed asset lower than its book value and charges it to the current profit and loss if its recoverable amount becomes lower than the book value due to continuous decline of market prices, technological obsolescence, damage, long-term idleness or otherwise. The fixed asset impairment loss, once recognized, will not be reversed in the subsequent accounting periods. (4) Disposal of fixed assets The company derecognizes a fixed asset if it is in the state of disposal or such fixed asset is expected not to generate economic benefits through use or disposal. The difference between net proceeds from scrapping or disposal of a fixed asse ts and its book value is charged to profit and loss at the date of scrapping or disposal. 18. Construction in progress (1) Categories of construction in progress Construction in progress mainly consists of self-operated works, contracted-out works and equipment installation works. The project costs of construction in progress are determined by the expenditures actually incurred, and self-operated works are measured at the direct materials, direct wage and direct construction costs; contracted-out works are measured at the project price payable; the project costs of equipment installation works are determined by the value of equipment installed, instillation costs and the expenditures incurred by project commissioning, etc. The costs of construction in progress also include the borrowing costs and exchange gains or losses that should be capitalized. (2) Carry-over of construction in progress to fixed assets A fixed asset being built is transferred to fixed assets when it reaches the intended usable state. Where a fixed asset built reaches the intended usable state but has not yet completed the final settlement of accounts, its cost should be determined at estimated value and its depreciation starts from the next month; the original estimated value is not adjusted at the actual cost until after the completion settlement, but without adjusting the originally accrued depreciation amount. (3) Impairment of construction in progress At the balance sheet date, the company examines construction in progress for any indication of impairment and conducts impairment tests when there is any indication of impairment, and makes impairment provision at the difference of recoverable amount lowe r than the book value. The recoverable amount of a work in progress is determined by the higher of the fair value of asset minus disposal costs and the present value of estimated future cash flows of the asset. The impairment loss of construction in progress, onc e recognized, will not be reversed in subsequent accounting periods. 19. Borrowing costs Borrowing costs refer to interest and other related costs incurred by the company due to borrowings, including loan interest, amortization of premium or discount, auxiliary expenses and exchange difference resulting from foreign-currency borrowings. (1) Principles for capitalization of borrowing costs The borrowing costs incurred by the company that can be directly attributed to the acquisition or production of assets eligib le for capitalization are capitalized and charged to the related asset cost; other borrowing costs are all recognized as financial expenses as and when incurred. Assets that meet the conditions for capitalization refer to fixed assets, inventories and other assets tha t can reach the intended usable or marketable state only after a considerably long period of acquisition or production activities. (2) Capitalization period of borrowing costs The capitalization period refers to the period from the commencement time of capitalization of borrowing costs to the time of cessation of capitalization, excluding the period during which the capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended. The borrowing costs begin being capitalized when the capital expenditure and the borrowing costs have been incurred and the acquisition or production activities required for the assets to reach the intended usable or marketable state have commenced. When the assets 280 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd acquired or produced that meet the conditions for capitalization reach the intended usable or marketable state, the borrowing costs cease to be capitalized. Where an asset that meets the conditions for capitalization is abnormally interrupted in the process of acquisition or produc tion and the period of interruption continues for more than 3 months, the capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended u ntil after the asset acquisition or production activities recommence. (3) Calculation method for capitalized amount of borrowing costs For the special borrowings borrowed to acquire or produce an asset that meets the conditions for capitalization, the capitalized amount of the borrowing costs is determined based on the interest expense actually incurred in the period of special borrowing minus the interest income acquired from depositing of the unused borrowed funds in the bank or the amount of investment income acquired on temporary investment. For general borrowings used to acquire or produce an asset that meets the conditions for capitalization, the interest amount on the general borrowings to be capitalized is calculated and determined based on the capital expenditure weighted average of the portion of accumulated asset expense in excess of the special borrowing multiplied by the capitalization rate of the general borrowings used. The capitalization rate is calculated based on the weighted average interest rate of general borrowing. 20. Biological assets (1) Conditions for recognition of biological assets Biological assets refer to living animals and plants and a biological asset is recognized when the following conditions are met at the same time: ①The company owns or control such biological asset due to past transactions or events; ②Economic benefits or service potential related to such biological asset are highly likely to flow to the company; ③The costs of such biological asset can be reliably measured. (2) Classification and costing of biological assets The company’s biological assets include consumptive biological assets and productive biological assets. Biological assets are all measured at actual cost and are subjected to cost accounting by distinguishing categories and batches. Costs of a biolog ical asset refer to necessary expenditures attributable to such asset and incurred to bring such asset to the makeable stage (refers to consumptive biological assets) or intended purpose of production and operations such as seedling cost, feed cost, drug c ost, labor cost, fuel and power cost, depreciation charges, lease expenses, other agricultural manufacturing costs, including borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. ①Consumptive biological assets Consumptive biological assets refer to biological assets held for sale, and the company’s consumptive biological assets mainly include suckling piglets, nursery piglets, fattening pigs, breeding chick’s (duck)’s eggs, baby chicks (ducks) and commercial generation broilers (meat ducks). A. Suckling piglets refer to piglets from date of birth to date of weaning, and costs of suckling piglets mainly include depreciation charges of breeding pigs and feeding costs at such stage. B. Nursery piglets refer to piglets from the date of weaning to date of transfer from nursery pigpen, and costs of nursery piglets mainly include costs of suckling piglets and feeding costs at the nursing stage. C. Fatting pigs refer to pigs from the date of transfer from nursery pigpen to the date of slaughter, and costs of fattening pigs include costs of nursery piglets and feeding costs at the fattening stage. D. Eggs of breeding chicks (ducks): costs of breeding chicks’ (ducks’) eggs include depreciation charges of mature egg-laying breeding chicks (ducks) and feeding costs of mature egg-laying breeding chicks (ducks). E. Baby chicks (ducks): the costs of baby chicks(ducks) include costs of breeding chicks’ (ducks’) eggs used to hatch baby ch icks (ducks) and fixed asset depreciation, labor costs and fuel and power costs at the hatching stage, etc. 281 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd F. Commercial generation broilers (meat ducks): costs of commercial generation broilers (ducks) include costs of baby chicks (ducks) and feeding costs of commercial generation broilers (ducks). ②Productive biological assets Productive biological assets refer to the biological assets held for production of agricultural products, including immature productive biological assets and mature productive biological assets. The productive biological assets of the company mainly include breeding pigs and breeding chicks (ducks). A. Breeding pigs: divided into immature breeding pigs and mature breeding pigs based on whether the intended production and operation purposes are achieved. Achieving the intended production and operation purposes means breeding pigs enter the normal production period and can continuously and stably produce conforming piglets. Costs of immature breeding pigs include seedlin g costs and feeding costs at the growth stage. After they become mature, they are transferred to the mating pigpen for production of piglets and transferred in accounting terms to the category of mature breeding pigs, before being accounted for using asset c ard established for individual pigs. The subsequent expenditures incurred after achieving the intended production and operation purposes such as feeding costs are all charged to the costs of piglets or semen but no longer charged to costs of breeding pigs. B. Breeding chicks(ducks): divided into immature breeding chicks (ducks) and mature breeding chicks (ducks) based on whether intended production and operation purposes are achieved. Achieving the intended production and operation purposes means breed ing chicks(ducks) enter the normal production period and can continuously and stably produce conforming hatching eggs. Costs of immature breeding chicks (ducks) include seedling costs and feeding costs at the growth stage. After they become mature, they are transferred to the egg-laying henhouse for production of hatching eggs and transferred in accounting terms to the category of mature breeding chicks(ducks), before being accounted for using asset card established for individual batches. The subsequent expend itures incurred after achieving the intended production and operation purposes such as feeding costs are charged to the costs of hatching eggs but no longer charged to costs of breeding chicks (ducks). (3) Depreciation of biological assets For productive biological assets that have achieved the predefined purpose of production and operation (i.e., mature productive biological assets), the company determines their service life, estimated net residual value and depreciation methods (depreciation methods including straight-line method and units-of production method) based on their nature, usage and expected way of realization of related economic benefits, and reviews the service life, estimated net residual value and depreciation methods of productive biological assets at least at the end of year, such that any difference with the original estimates is treated as accounting estimate change. The service lives, estimated net residual values and depreciation methods of mature productive biological assets of the company are as follows: Category Estimated service life (or production Estimated net residual value output) Breeding sows of generations other than 36 months 500-1400 Yuan/pig three-way crossbred sows Three-way crossbred sows 24 months 500-1400 Yuan/pig Breeding boars 18 months 500-1400 Yuan/pig Breeding hens 155 eggs/90 eggs (molting) 25 Yuan/hen Breeding ducks 245 eggs/120 eggs (molting) 30 Yuan/hen (4) Impairment of biological assets Consumptive biological assets are measured at the lower of book value and net realizable value, and productive biological ass ets are measured at the lower of book value or recoverable amount. At least at the end of each year, the company examines its biological assets for any indication of impairment, and accrues the revaluation reserve for consumptive biological assets or impairment provision for productive biological assets by the difference of the net realizable value or recoverable amount lower than book value and charges it to the current profit and loss if there is conclusive evidence that the net realizable value of consumptive biological assets or recoverable amount of productive biological assets is lower than its book value. 282 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd If the factors affecting the impairment of consumptive biological assets have disappeared, the written-down amount should be restored and reversed to the extent of amount of previously accrued revaluation reserve, with the reversed amount charged to the current profit and loss. The impairment provision for productive biological assets, once accrued, will not be reversed in subsequent accounting periods. The company shall comply with the disclosure requirements set forth in “Shenzhen Stock Excha nge’s Industry Information Disclosure Guidance No. 1---Listed Companies Engaged in Livestock, Poultry and Aquaculture Businesses”. 21. Right-of-use assets At the commencement date of a contract, the company assesses whether the contract is a lease or conta ins lease according to the following criteria: (1)Whether the contract involves use of an identified asset. (2) Whether the lessee has the right to receive almost all economic benefits derived from use of the identified asset within the period of use; (3)Whether the lessee has the right to direct the use of the identified asset during such period of use. Where a contract contains multiple individual leases, the lessor and lessee split up the contract and conduct accounting trea tment of each individual lease. Where a contract contains lease and non-lease parts, the lessee and lessor separate the lease parts from the non-lease parts. When separating the lease part from the non-lease part contained in the contract, the lessee apportions the contract consideration in proportion to the relative ratios of the sum of individual prices of lease parts and individual parts of non-lease parts; the lessor apportions the contract consideration according to the provisions of the accounting policies described in “Note V. (33) Revenue” regarding apportionment of transaction price. However, for lease of land and buildings and lease of equipment in which the company acts as the lessee, the company chooses not to separate the lease parts from the non-lease parts contained in the contract and combines various lease parts and non-lease parts related thereto into lease. The company has chosen not to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for short-term leases (leases each with a term of no more than 12 months) and low-value asset leases, and charges related lease payments to the current profit or loss or related asset cost using the straight-line method over each period during the lease term. Right-of-use assets or lease liabilities are recognized for other identified lease contracts. Right-of-use asset refers to the right of the company to use leased assets within the lease term as the lessee. Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which includes the initially measured amount including lease liabilities, lease payments paid at or before the commencement date of the lease term (net of lease incentive-related amounts enjoyed), initial direct costs incurred and costs expected to incur to dismantle and remove the leased assets, restore the site of the leased assets or restore the leased asse ts to the condition set forth in the lease terms. The company depreciates right-of-use assets using the straight-line method. Where it can be reasonably determined that the ownership of the leased asset will be acquired upon the expiration of the lease term, the compa ny depreciates the leased asset within the remaining service life of the leased asset. Otherwise, the leased asset is depreciated within the lease term and the rema ining service life of the leased asset, whichever is shorter. Impairment provision is accrued for right-of-use assets according to the accounting policy described in “Note V. (24) Asset Impairment”. 22. Intangible assets Intangible assets refer to the identifiable nonmonetary assets owned or controlled by the company without physical form. ①Valuation method for intangible assets The company’s intangible assets mainly include land use right, trademark license, patent and software, etc. An intangible ass et is recognized only when economic benefits related to it is highly likely to flow to the company and its cost can be reliably measured. 283 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd Intangible assets are measured initially at cost and the company analyzes and judges the service life of an intangible asset when acquiring it. An intangible asset with a limited service life is amortized using the straight-line method; intangible assets with uncertain service life are not amortized. ②Determination of service life of an intangible asset The service life of an intangible assets is determined by the period specified by laws and regulations, if any; or by the period of benefit specified in the related contract if there is no period specified by laws and regulations; or by the reasonably estimated service life if there is no period specified by laws and regulations or contracts and the economic service life can be reasonably estimated. The estimated service lives and amortization methods of intangible assets of the company are presented as follows: Item Estimated service life Basis Amortization method Land use right 40-50 years Valid period stipulated by law Straight-line method Patents 10 or 20 years Valid period stipulated by law Straight-line method Trademarks 10 years Valid period stipulated by law Straight-line method Other office software 3 years Reasonable estimation Straight-line method ③Judgment criteria for intangible assets with uncertain service life The company judges land use rights held by overseas subsidiaries as intangible assets with uncertain service life. ④Impairment of intangible assets At balance sheet date, the company examines its intangible assets for any indication of impairment, and should conduct impairment tests when there is any indication of impairment, and makes impairment provision at the difference of the recoverable amount lower than the book value, with the recoverable amount determined at the higher of fair value of intangible asset minus disposal costs and the present value of the estimated future cash flows from the intangible asset; the impairment loss, once accrued, will not be reversed in subsequent accounting periods. (2) Accounting policy on internal R&D expenditures The company divides its R&D projects into the research phase and development phase according to the following criteria: the phase of original, planned investigation and research activities conducted to acquire and understand new scientific or technological knowledge is determined as the research phase, which is planned and exploratory, etc; the phase where research findings or other knowledge are applied to a particular plan or design before commercial production or use in order to produce new or substantially improved materials, devices or products is determined as the development phase, which is characterized by specificity and hig h likelihood to form achievements. The expenditures at the research phase are charged to the current profit and loss as and when incurred. The expenditures at the development phase can be capitalized only when all of the following conditions are met at the same time, otherwise charged to the current profit and loss as and when incurred. ①The completion of such intangible asset to make it usable or sellable is technically feasible; ②There is an intention to complete, use or sell such intangible asset; ③The way the intangible asset generates economic benefits consists of the ability to prove there is a market for products produced using such intangible asset or a market for the intangible asset itself, provided that if the intangible asset is to be used internally, its usefulness should be demonstrated; ④There are sufficient technical, financial and other supports to complete the development of such intangible asset and there is ability to use or sell such intangible asset; ⑤The expenditure attributable to the development phase of such intangible asset can be reliably measured. 284 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd 23. Goodwill For goodwill formed from business combination not under common control, its initial cost is the difference of the combination cost larger than the share of fair value of identifiable net asses of the acquired party acquired in the combination. The company does not amortize goodwill and presents it in the balance sheet at cost minus accumulated impairment provision. Goodwill is transferred out at the time of disposal of its related asset group or combination of asset groups, and charged to the current profit and loss. 24. Impairment of long-term assets With respect to fixed assets, construction in progress, intangible assets, productive biological assets and investment proper ties measured using cost model, long-term equity investments, right-of-use assets, goodwill and other assets (except for inventories, deferred income tax assets and financial assets), the company determines at the balance sheet date whether there is any indic ation of impairment based on internal and external information. The company conducts impairment tests for assets for which there is indication of impairment, and estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. In addition, regardless of indication of impairment, the company conducts impairment costs for goodwill formed from business combinations, intangible assets not yet reaching the usable state and intangible assets with uncertain service life at least at the end of each year. For goodwill, the company allocates the book value of goodwill according to how related asset groups or combination of asset groups can benefit from synergistic effects of business combinations, on which basis it conducts goodwill impairment tests. The recoverable amount is the fair value of an asset (or asset group or combination of asset groups, the same below) minus the disposal costs and the present value of anticipated future cash flow from the asset, whichever is higher. An asset group comprises assets related to creation of cash inflows and is the determinable smallest asset portfolio, cash inf lows from which are basically independent from other assets or asset groups. The fair value of an asset is determined based on the price of sales agreement in arms’ length transaction. If there is no sales agreement but an active market for the asset, the fair value is determined by the bid price of the buyer of such asset. If there is no sales agreement or active market for the asset, the fair value of the asset is estimated based on the best available information. Disposal costs include legal costs, related taxes and handling costs related to asset disposal and direct costs incurred to bring the asset to the marketable state. The present value of estimated future cash flows from an asset is determined according to the estimated future cash flows generated during the continuous use of the asset and at the time of final disposal as discounted using an appropriate pretax discounting rate. If the results of impairment test indicate that the recoverable amount of an asset is lower than its book value, the asset impairment provision is made and charged to the current profit and loss. The impairment loss related to an asset group or combination of asset groups is first offset against the book value of goodwill allocated to such asset group or combination of asset groups before being offset against the book value of other assets pro rata according to the percentage of book value of other assets in the asset group or combination of asset groups other than goodwill, but the book value of various assets after offsetting may not be lower than the highest of the fair value of such asset minus disposal costs, the present value of estimated future cash flows from such asse t and zero. The aforesaid asset impairment loss, once recognized, will not be reversed in the subsequent accounting periods. 25. Long-term unamortized expenses Long-term unamortized expenses account for various costs that have occurred and have an amortization period of more than one year. The long-term unamortized expenses are recorded at the actually incurred amount and are amortized averagely over the period of benefit using the straight-line method, and presented at the net amount of actual expenditure minus accumulated amortization. If a long-term unamortized expense item cannot benefit the subsequent accounting periods, the amortized value of such item that has not yet been amortized is transferred in full to the current profit and loss. 285 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd 26. Fair value measurement Except as otherwise specifically stated, the company measures fair value according to the following principles: Fair value refers to the price to be received for sale of an asset or to be paid for transfer of a liability in orderly transactions occurring between market participants at the date of measurement. When estimating fair value, the company considers characteristics considered by market participants when pricing related assets or liabilities at the date of measurement (including the condition and location of asset and restrictions on sale or use of asse t, etc), and employs valuation techniques that are applicable under current circumstances and are supported by sufficient available data and other information. The valuation techniques used mainly include market approach, income approach and cost approach. 27. Employee compensation (1) Accounting treatment method for short-term compensation Employee compensation is remuneration or compensation of various forms given by the group to acquire services provided by employees or to terminate employment relationship. Employee compensation includes but not limited to short-term employee compensation, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits. The benefits provided by the company to spouses, children, dependants, dependents of deceased employees and other bene ficiaries of employees are also employee compensation. Short-term compensation comprises wage, bonus, allowance and subsidy, employee benefits, medical insurance costs, maternity insurance costs, industrial injury insurance costs, housing fund, trade union outlays, employee education expenditure and non-monetary benefits, etc. The company recognizes short-term employee compensation actually incurred as liabilities during the accounting period in which the employees provide services to the company and charge s it to the current profit and loss or related asset cost. Of them, the non-monetary benefits are measured at fair value. (2) Accounting treatment method for post-employment benefits Post-employment benefit plans consist of defined contribution plan and defined benefit plan, of which the defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the company no longer assumes any further payment obligations after contributing fixed fees to independent funds; the defined benefit plan is post-employment benefit plan other than the defined contribution plan. ①Defined contribution plan The company’s defined contribution plan mainly comprises basic endowment insurance, unemployment insurance and etc, and recognizes them as liabilities at the payable amount during the accounting period in which the employees provide services to the company and charges them to related asset costs or the current profit and loss. ②Defined benefit plan Based on the expected accumulated benefit unit method, the company estimates related demographic variables and financial variables using unbiased and mutually consistent actuarial assumptions, and measures obligations resulting from the defined benefit plan, before recognizing the present value after discounting as a defined benefit plan liability. The company attributes the benefit obligations arising from defined benefit plan to the period in which employees provide services, and charges the interest expenses that are service cost and defined benefit plan liabilities to the current profit and loss or related asset cost; charges the changes arising from the defined benefit plan liabilities re-measured to other comprehensive income, which are not allowed to reverse to profit and loss in subsequent accounting periods, but these amounts recognized in other comprehensive income can be transferred to the extent of equities. 286 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd (3) Accounting treatment method for termination benefits If the employment relationship with any employee is terminated before the expiration of the employment contract or a suggestion concerning compensation is provided to encourage the employees to voluntarily accept the job displacement, the liabilities resulting from compensation for termination of employment relationship with employees are recognized and charged to the current profit and loss, when the company can not unilaterally revoke the termination benefits provided due to the employment relationship termination plan or the separation suggestion or the company recognizes the costs related to the reorganization involving pay ment of termination benefits, whichever occurs earlier. (4) Accounting treatment method for other long-term employee benefits Other long-term employee benefits provided by the company to its employees are treated for accounting purposes according to the defined contribution plan if they comply with the defined contribution plan. Otherwise, such benefits are treated for accounting purposes according to the defined benefit plan. 28. Lease liabilities The identification and splitting of lease contracts are detailed in “Note V. (21) Right-of-use assets”. Apart from short-term leases and low-value asset leases, this group initially measures the lease liabilities at the commencement date of lease term at the present value of the lease payments not yet paid at such date, with the discount rate being the interest rate implicit in lease. Where the interest rate implicit in lease cannot be determined, the incremental borrowing interest rate is used as the discount rate. The company calculates the interest expense on lease liabilities in each period of the lease term at a fixed periodic rate and charges it to the current profit or loss or related asset cost. Variable lease payments not included in measurement of lease liabilities are charged to current profit or loss or related asset cost as and when actually incurred. At the commencement date of lease term, the company re-measures its lease liabilities at the present value of the changed lease payments in the following circumstances: (1) The payable amount estimated based on the remaining value of guarantee changes; (2) The index or ratio used to determine the lease payments changes; (3) The company’s assessment results of purchase option, renewal option or option to terminate lease change or the actual exe rcise of the renewal option or lease termination option is inconsistent with the original assessment results. Where the lease liabilities are re-measured, the company adjusts the book value of the right-of-use asset accordingly. Where the book value of a right-of-use asset has adjusted to be zero but the lease liabilities still need to be further adjusted downwards, the company charges the remaining amount to the current profit or loss. 29. Estimated liabilities Estimated liabilities are liabilities that might result from contingencies, including anticipated liabilities resulting from provision of external guarantees, pending litigations, product quality assurance and reorganization obligation, etc. (1) Criteria for recognition of estimated liabilities Except for contingent liabilities assumed in business combination not under common control, if an obligation incurred by the company is related to contingencies and meets the following conditions at the same time, the company recognizes such obligation as estimated liability: ①Such obligation is a present obligation of the company; ②The performance of such obligation is highly likely to result in outflow of economic benefits from the company; ③The amount of such obligation can be reliably measured. (2) Measurement method for estimated liabilities 287 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd Estimated liabilities are initially measured at the best estimate of expenditure required to perform the related present obligations 。 Where the impact of the time value of money is significant, the estimated liability is determined at an amount after discount ing the estimated future cash flows. When determining the best estimate, the company considers the risks related to contingencies, uncertainty and time value of currency and other factors. Where there is a continuous range for the required expenditure and the possibility of occurrence of various results within such range is the same, the best estimate is determined at the median of such range; in other cases, the best estimate is treated as follows: ①Determined by the most possible incurred amount if contingencies involve a single item; ②Determined by calculating according to various possible results and related probabilities if contingencies involve multiple items. The company at the balance sheet date reviews book value of estimated liabilities and adjusts such book value according got the current best estimate. 30. Share-based payment The share-based payment of the company is a transaction in which the company grants equity instruments or assumes liabilities determined based on equity instruments in exchange for services provided by its employees or other parties. (1)Classification of share -based payment Share-based payment consists of share-based payment settled in equities and share-based payment settled in cash. (2) Related accounting treatment for implantation of share -based payment plan ①Share-based payment settled in equities When the company exchanges shares or other equity instruments with services provided by employees, they are measured at the f air value of equity instruments granted to employees at the grant date. For share-based payment transactions in which immediate exercise after grant is possible, the company charges them to the related costs or expenses at the fair value of equity instr uments at the grant date and increases the capital reserve accordingly. For share-based payment transactions in which exercise can be made only after completing the services or meeting the specified performance conditions within the vesting period after grant, the company at each balance sheet date within the vesting period makes the best estimate of the number of exercisable equity instruments based on the latest acquired subsequent information such as changes in number of exercising employees, on which basis to charge the currently acquired services to related costs or expenses at fair value of equity instruments at the grant date, and charges them to capital reserve accordingly. When the company receives services but without settlement obligation, and what’s granted to employees are equity instruments of the ultimate controlling party of the company or subsidiaries controlled by it other than the company, the company treats such share-based payment plan as share-based payment settled in equities. ②Share-based payment settled in cash For share-based payment settled in cash, when the company delivers cash or other assets determined based on shares or other equity instruments in exchange for services provided by employees, the price of services received in exchange is measured at the fair value of liabilities determined based on the related equity instruments. For share-based payment transactions in which immediate exercise after grant is possible, the company charges them to the related costs or expenses at the fair value of liabilities assumed at the grant date and increases the liabilities accordingly. For share-based payment transactions in which exercise can be made only after completing the services or meeting the specified performance conditions within the vesting period after grant, the company at each balance sheet date within the vesting period charges the currently acquired services to costs or expenses at the amount of fa ir value of liabilities assumed based on the best estimate of the exercisable circumstance and charges them to liabilities accordingly. At each balance sheet date and settlement date before settlement of related liabilities, the company re-measures the fair value of liabilities and charges its changes to profit and loss. When the company receives services and has the settlement obligation, and what’s granted to employees are equity instruments of the ultimate controlling party of the company or subsidiaries controlled by it other than the company, the company treats such 288 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd share-based payment plan as share-based payment settled in cash. 31. Unearned premium reserve Unearned premium reserve refers to a reserve accrued by financing guarantee companies for financing liabilities not yet terminated. The financing guarantee company subordinate to the company accrues unearned premium reserve at 50% of the guarantee fee revenue of the year in the period of recognition of premium revenue; accrues unearned premium reserve as adjustment to the premium revenue and recognizes the liabilities for unearned premium reserve. Financing guarantee companies at the balance sheet date recalculate and determine the difference between the amount of unearned premium reserve and the balance of accrued unearned premium reserve according to the aforesaid provisions and adjust the balance of unearned premium reserve. 32. Guarantee indemnity reserve Guarantee indemnity reserve refers to a reserve accrued by financing guarantee company for its liability to pay indemnities to beneficiaries when the guaranteed person is unable to repay debts when due under a financing guarantee contract not yet terminated. The financing guarantee company subordinate to the company accrues guarantee indemnity reserve at 1% of the balance of guarantee liability at the end of the year in the period of recognition of financing guarantee contract revenue. When the accumulated amount of guarantee indemnity reserve reaches 10% of the balance of guarantee liability in the year, the reserve accrues at difference while recognizing the accrued guarantee indemnity reserve as liabilities. The accumulation of guarantee indemnity reserve is based on the financial condition, production or living environment of the guaranteed person to conduct adequacy test of the balance of accrued guarantee indemnity reserve, with additional accrual to be made at the difference in case of insufficiency, but the guarantee indemnity reserve is not adjusted if the balance of relate d insurance liability reserve recognized through recalculation under the financing guarantee contract is lower than the balance of related insurance liability reserve already recognized at the date of adequacy test. 33. Revenue Accounting policies adopted for revenue recognition and measurement Revenue refers to the total inflows of economic benefits formed by the company in its day-to-day activities that would result in increases in shareholder equity and are unrelated to capital invested by shareholders. (1) General principles for revenue recognition The company recognizes its revenue when having performed its performance obligations in contract, i.e., the customer acquires the control of related goods or services. Where a contract contains two or more performance obligations, the company allocates the transaction price to each individual performance obligation according to the relative proportions of separate selling prices of goods or services as promised by each individual performance obligation at the contract commencement date and then measures the revenue at the transaction price allocated to each individual performance obligation. The transaction price is the amount of consideration that the company expects to have the right to charge due to transfer of goods or services to its customers, excluding amounts charged on behalf of third parties. The transaction prices recognized by the company do not exceed the amounts with respect to which the accumulated recognized revenue is extremely likely not to be significantly reversed at the time of elimination of related uncertainties. The amounts expected to be returned to customers are treated as liabilities for return of goods and are not charged to the transaction prices. Where a contract contains a significant financing component, the company determines the transaction price at the payable amount t hat the customer would pay in cash should the customer have 289 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd acquired the control of the goods or service, with the difference between such transaction price and the contract consideration to be amortized using the effective interest rate method during the term of the contract. At the commencement date of a contract, if it is estimated that the interval between the customer’s acquisition of control of goods or services and the customer’s payment of price is no more than one year, significant financing component existing in the contract is not considered. When meeting one of the following conditions, a performance obligation is one that should be performed within a particular pe riod, otherwise it is a performance obligation that should be performed at a particular point in time: ①The customer has acquired and consumed the economic benefits brought about by performance of the company when the company performs the contract; ②The customer can control the goods in progress during the performance of the company; ③The goods produced during the performance of the company have irreplaceable purposes and the company has the right to charge amounts for the portion of performance completed so far in cumulative terms within the entire term of contract. For a performance obligation performed within a particular of period of time, the company recognizes revenue according to the performance progress within such period of time. When the performance progress is uncertain, provided that the costs incurred are expected to be compensated, the revenue is recognized at the amount of costs already incurred until the performance progress can be reasonably determined. For a performance obligation performed at a particular time in time, the company recognizes revenue at the point in time when the customer acquires the control of related goods or services. When judging whether a customer has acquired the control of goods or services, the company would consider the following indications: ①This company has the present right to collect payments with respect to such goods or services; ②The company has transferred the physical objects of such goods to the customer; ③This company has transferred the legal title to such goods or the substantia l risk and reward on such legal title to the customer; ④The customer has accepted such goods or services, etc. (2) Specific methods of the company for revenue recognition Production and sale of feeds, livestock and poultry and foods are the main business of the company, and the company’s performance obligation in such sales businesses is performance obligation performed at a particular point in time. Where the company has received the payment for goods (cash sale or advances on sales) or expects to recover the payment for goods (credit sales) and delivered the goods to a customer in such manner as specified in contract, which have been signed off by the customer, the customer acquires the control of related goods and the company recognizes the revenue at the same time Adoption of different business models in the same type of business results in difference in accounting policies for revenue recognition. None 34. Government subsidy (1) Definition of government subsidy Government subsidies refer to the monetary and non-momentary assets received by the company from government without compensation, excluding capital invested by government as an investor. (2) Types and classification criteria of government subsidy Government subsidy consists of asset-related government subsidy and income-related government subsidy. The company defines the government subsidies acquired by the company and used for acquisition or otherwise formation of long-term assets as asset-related; other government subsidies acquired by the company otherwise related to assets are defined as income-related. For comprehensive project government subsidies containing both asset-related parts and income-related parts, they are treated respectively by distinguishing different parts; where it is difficult o distinguish, they are classified in entirety as income-related government subsidies. 290 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd (3) Recognition of government subsidy A government subsidy is recognized when the government subsidy can be received and the conditions attached to the government subsidy can be met. A government subsidy is measured at the amount actually received or receivable if it is a monetary asset. A government subsidy that is a non-monetary asset is measured at fair value. Asset-related government subsidies are recognized by the company as deferred income and charged to other income in a reasonable and systematic manner over the service life of the related asset by phases; Income-related government subsidies, if used for compensating relevant expenses and losses of the company in future periods, are recognized as deferred income and are charged to profit and loss in the period when relevant costs and expenses or losses are recognized; otherwise, they are charged directly to profit and loss. The company charges to other income the government subsidies received in connection with the daily activities of the company according to substance of economic transaction, and charges to non-business revenue the government subsidies unrelated to daily activities of the company. The policy-related preferential subsidized loans acquired by the company are treated for accounting purposes by distinguishing between fiscal authorities appropriating the proceeds of subsidized loans to the lending bank and the fiscal authorities appr opriating the proceeds of subsidized loans directly to the company. Where the fiscal authorities appropriate the proceeds of subsidized loans to the lending bank for provision of loans to the company at a policy-related preferential interest rate, the company records the loans at the loan amount actually received and calculates the related borrowing costs according to the loan principal and such policy-related preferential interest rate. Where the fiscal authorities appropriate the proceeds of subsidized loans directly to the c ompany, the company charges the corresponding interest subsidy against the related borrowing costs. 35. Deferred income tax assets/deferred income tax liabilities Based on the difference between the book value and tax base of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and the difference between the book value and tax base of an item which has not been recognized as an asset and liability but whose tax base can be determined according to the applicable tax laws, the deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are measured using balance sheet debt method and according to the tax rate applicable during expected recovery of such asset or repayment of suc h liability. (1) Recognition of deferred income tax assets The company recognizes related deferred income tax assets to the limit of the taxable income that is highly likely to be received by the company in future period to deduct the deductible temporary difference; but if such transaction is not business combination and the transaction neither affects the accounting profits nor affects the taxable income (or deductible loss) when incurred, the related deferred income tax assets are not recognized. For related deductible temporary difference resulting from the investments of the company in its subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures, if such temporary difference is highly likely not to be reversed in foreseeable future and the taxable income is highly likely not to be obtained to deduct the deductible temporary difference in the future, the company recognizes the corresponding deferred income tax assets. At the balance sheet date, the company reviews the book value of deferred income tax assets. If it is highly likely not to ob tain taxable income sufficient to deduct the benefits of deferred income tax assets in the future, the book value of deferred income tax assets is written down. The amount written down is reversed when sufficient taxable income is highly likely to be obtained. The deductible losses and tax credit which can be carried forward in future years are treated as if they are deductible temporary difference. The corresponding deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent of the amount of future income taxable which is highly likely to be obtained to deduct the deductible losses and tax credit. (2) Recognition of deferred income tax liabilities Apart from initial recognition of goodwill or taxable temporary difference arising in a transaction that is not business comb ination 291 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd and affects neither accounting profits nor taxable income (or deductible loss) when occurring, the company recognizes deferred income tax liabilities arising from all taxable temporary differences. For related taxable temporary difference resulting from the investments of the company in its subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures, if the company can control the time to reverse the temporary difference and the temporary difference is highly like ly not to be reversed in foreseeable future, the company does not recognize related deferred income tax liabilities. (3) Income tax expense The income tax expense consists of current income tax and deferred income tax. The current income tax is the expected payable tax calculated based on the taxable income of this year at the tax rate stipulated by tax laws. The company charges current income taxes and deferred income tax to the current profit and loss, except for the income tax arising from business combinations and transactions or events directly charged to ownership interest (including other comprehensive income). (4) Offset of income tax At the balance sheet date, deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are presented at a net amount after offset when the following conditions are met at the same time: ①The taxpayer entity has the legal right to netting of current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities. ②Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are related to income tax imposed by the same tax authority on the same taxpayer entity or related to different taxpayer entities but the taxpayer entities involved intend to conduct netting settlement of current income tax assets and liabilities or acquire assets and repay liabilities at the same time within each period in the future that has reversal of important deferred income tax assets and liabilities. 36. Lease (1) Accounting treatment method for operating leases The company started implementing the new lease standard as of January 1, 2021. Low-value or short-term leases that meet the exemption requirements are not accounted for using the new standard, and for such low-value short-term leases: (1) Where the company acts as the lessee, the rental expense on the operating lease is recognized as related asset cost or expense using the straight-line method within the lease term. The initial direct costs are charged to the current profit or loss: (2) Where the company acts as the lessor, the rental revenue on operating lease is recognized as revenue using the straight-line method within the lease term. The initial direct costs arising from assets leased out under operating lease are capitalized when their amounts are large, and are charged to the current profit and loss in phases over the entire lease period on the same basis as recognition of rental revenue; when their amounts are small, they are directly charged to the current profit and loss. Fixed assets or investment properties leased out under operating lease are still depreciated according to depreciation policies for related a ssets, while other operating lease assets are amortized using reasonable methods. (2) Accounting treatment method for financing leases The company started implementing the new lease standard as of January 1, 2021, whereby for financial leases: (1) Where the company acts as the lessee, details are shown in the related accounting policies disclosed in “Note V. (21) right-of-use assets” and “Note V. (28) lease liabilities” (2) Where the company acts as the lessor, at the commencement date of lease term, the company recognizes the receivable financial lease payments for financial leases and derecognizes the financial lease assets. When initially measuring a receivable financ ial lease amount, the company treats the net lease investment as the entry value of receivable financial lease amount. The net lease investment is the sum of the unguaranteed residual value and the present value of the lease receivable not yet received at the commencement date of lease term and discounted at the interest rate implicit in lease. The company calculates the interest expense on lease liabilities in each period of the lease term at a fixed periodic rate and charges it 292 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd to the current profit or loss or related asset cost. De-recognition and impairment of receivable financial lease amounts are treated for accounting purposes according to the accounting policy described in “Note V. (10) Financial instruments”. Variable lease payments not included in measurement of net lease investment are charged to current profit or loss as and when actually incurred. (3) Accounting treatment of sale-and-leaseback The company determines sale-and-leaseback transaction as financing lease or operating lease according to the provisions of lease standards. Where the sale-and-leaseback transaction is determined as a financing lease, the company considers the sale-and-leaseback transaction and sale of asset as a single transaction and will not recognize the profit and loss on asset sale as current profit and loss, but instead defers them as financing costs and allocate them according to the depreciation progress of such leased asset as the adjustment to the depreciation charge. Where the sale-and-leaseback transaction is determined as an operating lease, it should be recognized as current profit and loss if the selling price is lower than the fair value; where the selling price is higher than the fair value, the portion in excess of the fair value is deferred and amortized over the estimated service life of the asset. The difference between the fair value and book value of an asset under sale-and-leaseback transaction is recognized as the current profit and loss. (4) Improvement expenditure and repair of leased fixed assets The improvement expenditures borne by the company on leased fixed assets (more than 0.20 million Yuan or exceeding one-year lease fee on such asset) should be amortized within 5 years (not beyond the lease expiration date); other repair costs arisin g from leased fixed assets and borne by the company are charged to the current profit and loss. 37. Hedge accounting (1) Types of hedging business, hedging relationship and judgment about hedging effectiveness The company’s hedging business is fair value hedging and manly consists of futures hedging business conducted on the domestic agricultural product futures markets out of the consideration for avoiding the risks of price fluctuation associated with purchase of raw materials (such as corn, soybean and soybean meal, etc). The company continuously evaluates the hedging effectiveness, judges whether such futures hedging is highly effective during the accounting period in which the hedging relationship is designated, and can only recognize and measure the highly effective futures hedging according to the hedge accounting (the futures hedging that is not determined as highly effective is treated for accounting purposes according to “Note V. (10) Financial instruments—derivative instruments”. The company determines a hedge as highly effective if the hedge meets all of the following conditions: ①At the commencement of the hedge and thereafter, such hedge is expected to highly effectively offset the fair value changes resulting from the hedged risks during the period of hedge designation; ②The actual offset result of such hedge is within a range of 80% to 125%. (2) Accounting treatment method for hedging For fair value hedging, the changes in fair value of hedging derivatives are charged to the current profit and loss. The chan ges in the fair value of the hedged item due to the hedging risk are charged to the current profit and loss, while adjusting the book value of the hedged item at the same time; where the hedged item is a firm commitment not yet recognized, the accumulated changes in fair value of such firm commitment due to the hedged risk are recognized as an asset or liability, and the related gains or losses are charged to the current profit and loss. 293 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd 38.

(3) Remarks on retrospective adjustments to prior comparatives due to the first adoption of new lease standard as of 2021 □ applicable √ not applicable 39. Important accounting judgments and estimates Due to inherent uncertainties of business activities and changes in external factors, the company needs to make judgments, es timates and assumptions accounting events that cannot be accurately measured in accounting treatment, which are based on historical experience of the company’s management and are made taking into account other related factors. However, the actual results arising from uncertainties of accounting events might differ from the current judgments and estimates made by the company’s management and thereby might result in material adjustments to the book values of assets or liabilities affected in the future. The company conducts periodic review and evaluation of the aforesaid adjustments, estimates and assumptions on the basis of going concern and conducts accounting treatment according to enterprise accounting standards and related provisions. The important fields in wh ich the company makes judgments, estimates and assumptions about amounts of financial statement items are as follows: (1) Accrual of bad debt provision The company accounts for bad debt loss using the allowance method according to the accounting policy for receivables, and acc rual of bad debt provision is based on judgments and estimates made by the management about the recoverable amounts of accounts receivable. The difference between actual results and original reasonable expectations will affect the book value of receivab les and accrual or reversal of bad debt provision for receivables during the period in which estimates are changed. (2) Inventory revaluation reserve The company measures inventories at the lower of cost and net realizable value at the balance sheet date, and inventory impairment is based on assessment of the marketability and net realizable value of inventories. Determination of inventory impairment requires the company to obtain conclusive evidence for net realizable vale and to make judgments and estimates taking into account the purpose of holding inventories and other factors. The difference between actual results and original reasonable expectations will aff ect the book value of inventories and accrual or reversal of inventory revaluation reserve during the period in which est imates are changed. (3) Impairment f other long-term assets The company conducts impairment tests for long-term assets such as long-term equity investments, fixed assets, construction in progress, productive biological assets and intangible assets when there is any indication of impairment; goodwill is subjected to impairment test each year, regardless of whether there is any indication of impairment. When the book value of an asset or as set 300 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd group is higher than its recoverable amount (the higher of the net amount of fair value minus disposal costs and the present value of estimated future cash flows), impairment loss is recognized. The net amount of fair value minus disposal costs is determined by reference to the sales agreement price of similar assets in arm’s length transaction or observable market price minus the incremental cost directly attributable to such asset disposal; the es timated future cash flows require use of data about output, selling price, related operating costs and other aspects of such asset or asset group that involve future cash flows. The company estimates recoverable amounts based on all available external information and for ecasts made inside the company based on reasonable expectations and supportable assumptions with respect to output, selling prices and operating costs. (4) Depreciation and amortization The company depreciates or amortizes fixed assets, right-of-use assets, productive biological assets and part of intangible assets using the straight-line method over the economic service life, with the service life determined based on historical experience, contractual provisions and asset performance parameters, taking into account the expected technological updating, etc. If the previous reasonable estimates change in a manner that has significant effects, adjustments are made to depreciation and amortization expenses in the future periods. (5) Tax matters such as income tax In the normal course of business operations, fiscal and tax treatment of part of tax-related transactions or events by the company face considerable uncertainties due to involvement of projections and judgments, and might affect the financial statements in future accounting periods; mainly including: ①The company pays enterprise income tax at home and in many foreign countries, and whether part of items can be presented and disbursed before tax requires approval and confirmation of competent tax authorities. If the final determinations of these ta x matters differ from the original projections and judgments, such difference will affect the current income tax expense on them in the period of final determination. ②The company can carry over the deductible losses to future years and recognizes the corresponding deferred tax assets to the limit of future taxable income that is highly likely to be available to deduct the deductible losses. The company needs to exercis e numerous judgments in order to reasonably estimate the period and amount of taxable income arising in the future. If the market quotations of future business units or profitability of individual taxpaying entity are significantly changed from the current projection results, such difference will affect the deferred income tax expense in future periods. ③Due to the special nature of tax policies related to deduction of input tax on agricultural products and the low gross margins of the business unit of primary processing of agricultural products at present, the cumulative amount of excess VAT paid by subs idiaries of the company engaged in slaughter and primary processing of meat foods is relatively large. If tax policies related to deduct ion of input tax on agricultural products substantially change in the future, it might materially affect the payable ta xes and profit and loss in future periods.

Details of various financial instruments have been disclosed in related notes. To reduce risks related to financial instruments, the company formulated corresponding risk management policies and set up corresponding jobs or functional departments in order to ensure its risk management objectives and policies are effectively carried out; the management manages and monitors these risk exposures to ensure the aforesaid risks are controlled within a specified scope. (I) Credit risk Credit risk refers to a risk that the non-performance by a party to the financial instrument of its obligations might cause financial risks to the other party. The company mainly faces customer credit risk resulting from credit sales. Before execution of a ne w contract, the company would assess the credit risk of the new customer, including external credit ratings and bank reference under certain circumstances (when such information is available). The company has set a credit sale limit for each customer, which is the maximum amount that requires no additional approval. (II) Market risk The market risk of financial instruments refer to the risk that the fair value or future cash flow of financial instruments m ight fluctuate as a result of changing market prices, including the exchange rate risk, interest rate risk etc. 1. Interest rate risk The company mainly faces cash flow interest rate risk resulting from floating-rate financial liabilities. (1) The floating-rate financial liabilities held by the group as of June 30 were as follows: Item Ending amount Beginning amount Effective interest rate Amount Effective interest rate Amount Financial liabilities Short-term borrowings 0.75%-21.75% 19,010,984,011.32 0.98%-20.75% 10,399,072,204.60 Long-term borrowings (including 1.25%-4.75% 36,116,292,003.76 1.25%-4.75% 24,884,469,449.27 431 2021 Semi- Annual Report of New Hope Liuhe Co., Ltd those due within one year) Total 55,127,276,015.08 35,283,541,653.87 (2) Sensitivity analysis As of June 30, 2021, with other variables held constant, a 25 BP increase in interest rate will result in the company’s net profits and ownership interest decreased by 103,022,763.24 Yuan (2020: a decrease of 68,887,976.59 Yuan). For the floating-rate non-derivative instruments held at the balance sheet date that cause the company to face cash flow interest rate risk, the effect of net profits and ownership interest in the aforesaid sensitivity analysis is after-tax effect of the aforesaid interest rate change on interest expense or revenue estimated by year. The analysis of the previous year was based on the same assumpt ions and method. 2. Foreign exchange risk The company invests and operates in several Asian, African and European countries, with revenues all denominated in local currencies, but the fluctuations of the exchange rates between these currencies and RMB will affect the figures of overseas r evenue and profits of the company. For cash at bank and on hand, receivables and payables, long-term and short-term borrowings and other foreign-currency assets and liabilities that are not denominated in accounting currency, if short-term imbalance occurs, the company will purchase and sell foreign currencies at market rates when necessary in order to ensure the net risk exposure is kept at an acceptable level.
