2. Development stage and cyclical characteristic of the industry in which the Company operates
and its industry position during the reporting period
(1) Macro economic and trade landscape
In the first half of 2023, uncertainties in the global economy have increased, with a sluggish economic
recovery. In particular, there remained the ongoing geopolitical friction, high inflation and large
stockpiles inhibiting consumer demand in developed countries, interest rate hikes in Europe and the
United States slowing down the investment growth in emerging markets, and China and the United
States have launched a new round of wrestling in the high-tech field. According to the “World
Economic Outlook” published by the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”) in July 2023, the global
economy in 2023 was expected to increase by 3.0%, representing a decrease of 0.5 percentage points
year-on-year. Specifically, developed economies were expected to grow by 1.5%, representing a
decrease of 1.2 percentage points year-on-year, while emerging markets and developing economies
were expected to grow by 4.0%, keeping flat year-on-year. According to the report published by U.S.
Department of Commerce, the U.S. GDP grew by 2.4% in the second quarter, up from 2% in the first
12
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2023
quarter. According to statistics of Eurostat, in the second quarter of 2023, the Eurozone GDP grew by
0.3% quarter-on-quarter, among which German GDP was flat and France grew by 0.5% quarter-on-
quarter. The economic situation in Japan was relatively complex, despite in June certain indicators
such as value of industrial output rebounded more than expected, its economic and fiscal situation
was still uncertain; while the economy of the South Korea grew better than expected in the second
quarter, with GDP up 0.9% year-on-year, unchanged from the first quarter. In terms of global trade,
the volume of global trade was expected to grow by 2.0% in 2023, representing a decrease of 3.2%
year-on-year. Amidst weak consumption of goods, rising uncertainty about the future geoeconomic
conditions, sluggish productivity growth and more challenging financial conditions, companies have
scaled back investment in capacity.
In the first half of 2023, China adhered to the general principle of seeking progress while maintaining
stability under the complex and severe external environment, and China's overall economy gradually
recovered with a positive momentum, and foreign trade kept stable with its improved quality as
expected. According to the statistics of National Bureau of Statistics of China, China’s GDP was
RMB59.30 trillion in the first half of 2023, representing an increase of 5.5% year-on-year at constant
prices. However, special attention shall also be paid to the weak recovery of the world economic,
slowing global trade and investment, increasing unilateralism, protectionism and geopolitical risks,
as well as the lasting impact of declining external demand on China's foreign trade. According to the
statistics published by the General Administration of Customs of China, the total value of imports
and exports of trade in goods in China amounted to RMB20.1 trillion in the first half of 2023,
representing an increase of 2.1% year-on-year, among which the export value was RMB11.46 trillion,
representing an increase of 3.7% year-on-year, and the import value was RMB8.64 trillion,
representing a decrease of 0.1% year-on-year. The trade surplus was RMB2.82 trillion, up 17.4%.
The total value of imports and exports in China denominated in US dollar amounted to USD 2.92
trillion, representing a decrease of 4.7%.
The regionalization trend of global industrial and supply chain was obvious and the implementation
of RCEP has injected impetus into the integrated development of regional economy. The imports and
exports between China and ASEAN denominated in RMB increased by 5.4% year-on-year in the first
half of 2023. Under the trend of diversification and fragmentation of demand, cross-border e-
commerce was booming, with the cross-border e-commerce imports and exports amounting to RMB
1.1 trillion in the first half of 2023, representing an increase of 16% year-on-year, according to the
statistics published by the General Administration of Customs of China. The development of digital
intelligence technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, Internet of Things,
and blockchain has exerted a profound impact on trade patterns, structures and landscape. An
interdependent industrial Internet platform ecology will be built to further strengthen the flow of
production factors and commodities and improve the overall efficiency.
Looking ahead to the second half of 2023, the risks to global growth remain skewed to the downside,
with inflation likely to remain high or even rise in the event of further shocks, including those caused
by the intensifying Russia-Ukraine conflict and extreme weather, triggering further tightening of
monetary policy. However, the likelihood of a more favourable outcome for global growth is also
rising, and core inflation may fall faster than expected, reducing the need for tighter monetary policy.
13
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2023
The IMF expects the global economy to grow by 3.0% in 2023. In advanced economies, growth will
continue to slow significantly in 2023, from 2.7% in 2022 to 1.5% in 2023 and 1.4% in 2024. Growth
in emerging market and developing economies is expected to remain broadly stable at 4.0% in 2023
and 4.1% in 2024. Total world trade (including goods and services) is expected to grow by 2.0% in
2023, rising to 3.7% in 2024.
In the second half of 2023, China's real estate sector may contract more than expected, weak
confidence leads to weaker-than-expected consumption, and possible fiscal tightening in response to
lower local government tax revenues, these uncertainties will put some pressure on China's economic
growth. The international market demand may be better than expected, consumption growth may
further release potential, the trend of digital and green economy continues to strengthen, and scientific
and technological innovation will become an important driving force for China's economic
development. In the coming stage, the Chinese government will continue to adhere to the general
principle of seeking progress while maintaining stability, work hard to smooth the economic cycle,
make greater efforts to change the growth model, adjust the structure and increase the growth
momentum, and strive to achieve effective qualitative improvement and reasonable quantitative
growth of the economy.
（2）Trend analysis of the port and shipping industry
The international shipping industry has been deeply affected by the reshaping of the global industrial
and supply chain, which has led to significant adjustments in shipping route layout. According to the
report of Alphaliner, a shipping consultancy, as at the end of July 2023, the capacity deployed by liner
companies on Asia-Europe routes grew by 3.4% year-on-year, and a decrease of 19.1% year-on-year
on trans-Pacific routes. In terms of port of calls, the number of liner calls from China at U.S. ports
plummeted, and more container cargoes arrived in the United States from Vietnam, Mexico and other
regions. According to the report of Lloyd's List, the number of goods shipped from China to the
United States fell 17% in 2022; the number of liner calls from China to Vietnam increased by 23%;
the number of liner calls from Vietnam to the United States increased from 44 to 62, representing an
increase of 41%; the number of liner calls from China to Mexico increased by 14% year-on-year; and
the number of direct flights between China and Russia increased to 342, representing an increase of
88% year-on-year.
In 2023, uncertainties in the container transport market increased, and the fundamental of supply and
demand was cautiously optimistic. The international freight rates fell sharply and hovered at low
levels. On the supply side, the shipping market entered a new round of delivery capacity and the
average port time continued to shorten, and the idle capacity of container ships accounted for
approximately 4.4%; while on the demand side, Drewry, a shipping consultancy, expected that the
global port throughput would rise by approximately 1% in 2023. Due to the decline in freight rate,
shipping companies have accordingly focused on cost control and business diversification to ensure
profitability, including optimizing fleet capacity, reducing charter costs and slow sailing, extending
both ends of the shipping logistics chain and investing in the field of zero carbon.
Affected by the global economy and trade and the international shipping industry, plus a slowdown
14
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2023
in the growth of the global port industry, the container business volume handled in major hub
locations decreased to varying degrees. Drewry, a shipping consultancy, expected global port
throughput growth of 1% in 2023 and 3% between 2024 and 2027. According to the statistics of
Alphaliner, the total container throughput of the world's top 20 ports amounted to 83.43 million TEUs
for the first quarter of 2023, representing a decrease of 11.7% year-on-year. In addition to the Middle
East (Dubai Port) and Northeast Asia (Busan Port), the container throughput handled in ports in other
regions declined in various degrees. In particular, ports in the Greater China region handled 51.54
million TEUs, representing a decrease of 0.25% year-on-year; ports in Southeast Asia handled 11.07
million TEUs, representing a decrease of 2.0% year-on-year; ports in Europe and North America
handled 6.33 million TEUs and 5.35 million TEUs, respectively, representing a decrease of 8.8% and
29.9% year-on-year. While China's port industry performed well in the first half of 2023 in terms of
the main indicators. According to the statistics published by the Ministry of Transport, the
accumulated cargo volume handled by Chinese ports reached 8,188.8 million tonnes from January to
June 2023, representing an increase of 8.0% year-on-year, and the accumulated container throughput
handled reached 149.19 million TEUs, representing an increase of 4.8% year-on-year. Among which,
coastal ports handled an accumulated cargo volume of 5,331.86 million tonnes, representing an
increase of 7.3% year-on- year, while the accumulated container throughput was 130.88 million TEUs,
representing an increase of 4.2% year-on-year.
(3) The Company’s industry position
The Company is the global leading port investor and operator, as one of the top port operators in the
world, and has the resource endowment and unique advantages to build a world-class comprehensive
port service provider. In terms of scale, the Company has established a relatively complete port
network at major hub locations along coastal China, with its presence in 50 ports in 25 countries and
regions including Asia, Africa, Europe, Oceania, South and North America. In 2022, the Company's
equity throughput of containers reached 50.6 million TEUs, ranking third among the global port
operators. In terms of quality, the master terminals controlled by the Company have occupied various
market and regional leading positions, continued to promote ESG construction, and strived to create
an ESG port benchmark in the industry. In addition, leveraging on the good ground of port technology
and based on the TOS system self-developed by CMPort, the Company has worked out the worldwide
first full-case, full-time, all-regime and multi-factor traditional container terminal upgrading solution,
and has built the trade facilitation platform for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area
through blockchain technology, which has been extended to 30 terminals to help enhance the trade
facilitation level in the Greater Bay Area. In terms of performance, the Company has continually
promoted high-quality development and has been an industry leader in terms of net profit margin and
overall labour productivity and other indicators.
II. Core competitiveness analysis
1. Sound shareholder background and resource integration capability
CMG, the de facto controller of the Company, was the Hundred Years' central State-owned enterprises
starting with port shipping logistics business that owns excellent reputation and resources available
15
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2023
in the industry.
Founded in 1872, CMG is an integrated and diversified key enterprise under the direct administration
of the PRC central government, also a one of the four major Chinese enterprises in Hong Kong with
two global companies counted on Fortune Global 500 list. Currently, it mainly focusses on three core
industries, namely transportation & logistics, integrated finance and comprehensive development of
cities and industrial zones. In recent years, CMG successively realized the transformation from these
three primary industries to the three major platforms of industrial management, financial services,
investment and capital operation, and also began to deploy its footprint in big health, testing and other
sectors.
CMG’s Transportation & Logistics Business Department includes port, highway, energy shipping,
logistics, naval architecture and marine engineering businesses, and has a wide range of coordinated
space for industrial chain service. Acceleration of international development and improvement on
logistics network layout will effectively bolster CMPort’s capabilities related to create a world-class

X. Risks exposed by the Company and counter measures
1. Risk of macroeconomic fluctuations
Internationally, the external environment is complex and severe, and the global economic recovery is
34
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2023
unstable, uncertain and uneven. Inflation in major developed economies is still at a high level, the
pace of interest rate hikes in Europe and the United States has not stopped, the performance of
emerging markets is uneven, the international trade and investment slows down, and the geopolitical
situation intensifies, all these have had an impact on global economic growth and commodity trade
markets, and brought challenges to the Company's overseas operations and investments.
Domestically, China's economy has strong resilience, great potential, and sufficient vitality. The
fundamentals for long-term growth are still solid. However, under the superposition of various factors
exceeding expectations, economic development still faces triple pressures of demand contraction,
supply shock, and weakening expectations.
In the face of intricate macroeconomic fluctuations, the Company adheres to the global thinking in
planning a layout, and the bottom-line thinking of planning ahead. We will accurately identify,
scientifically adapt to, and actively seek changes. We will (1) work hard on deepening the
implementation of the "14th Five-Year Plan" and the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the
Communist Party of China, fully implement the new development concept under the new situation,
and optimize the Company’s structure through the transformation and upgrading of the main port
business, enhance the momentum of development, and promote the high-quality development of the
Company; (2) further give full play to the function of the main hub of the port, and deeply implement
national strategies such as the National Unified Market, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater
Bay Area, and the development of Yangtze River Delta, and the new land-sea corridor in the west,
and help build a new development pattern of channel guidance, efficient connection, and radiation-
driven development; (3) grasp the policy environment of high-level opening-up to the outside world,
break down barriers, discuss cooperation, strengthen connectivity with various regions, and
continuously improve the quality and coverage of port services; (4) keep an eye on international
geopolitical development, follow up with the reconstruction of global industrial supply chain, actively
specialize in trade movements to adjust the Company's business strategies in a timely manner and
prevent the occurrence of major external risk events.
2. Policy risks
There are diverse policy risks in the port industry. Internationally, strike actions in different industries
and scales caused by inflation have swept across Europe and the United States, seriously affecting
the normal operation of society and the stable recovery of the economy. With the negotiation between
the government and labor, a series of new policies and measures may be issued. Domestically, China
solidly promotes high-level opening-up to the outside world. It not only makes good use of the global
market and resources to develop itself, but also promotes the common development of the world. It
continuously improves the foreign cooperation supervision system and cooperation tools in trade and
investment and other fields, and launches a series of import and export policies that are beneficial to
the port industry.
Facing the potential policy risks, on the one hand, the Company will strengthen the policy research,
and form an objective and correct understanding in the analysis to provide better decision support for
the Company. On the other hand, the Company will continue to improve quality and increase
35
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2023
efficiency, strengthen rational allocation of resources, enhance operational management through
innovative technology and industry digitization, actively seek new future growth and improve
sustainable profitability.
3. Operation management risks
Amidst the favorable environment of domestic and overseas ports integration, the Company will fully
grasp the investment opportunities of domestic and overseas ports, further optimize the network
layout of ports by ways of mergers, acquisitions, restructuring and integration of resources, achieve
high-level synergy between port construction and operation and provide more comprehensive
services for customers around the world. With the deepening of the internationalization process, the
Company is also facing negative conditions such as increased difficulties in the operation and
management of ports in some regions and lower returns on investment and operational efficiency.
The main risks include: (1) the uncertainty and complexity of the place where we operate, which
further increases the risk of investment decisions and the difficulty of investment, operation and
management; (2) significant fluctuations of the international exchange rate, with the continuous
improvement of the marketization mechanism of the RMB exchange rate, two-way fluctuations in
the RMB exchange rate have become the norm, and the exchange rates of some developed countries
and emerging markets also entered a downward path; (3) the needs for improvement of the
international operation management system, the Company shall take the initiative to improve the
overall operational efficiency to meet the needs arising from the rapid development and expansion of
the enterprises; (4) continuous needs for building a sound corporate risk control system to enhance
our ability to cope with risks.
In view of the Company's internal business management risks, we will (1) increase customer loyalty
based on three improvement elements, namely “ market, resources, services ” , take the initiative to
identify new customers and grasp market opportunities; (2) improve the construction of the internal
control and compliance system, strengthen the legal empowerment of business capabilities, ensuring
effective risk identification and control and consolidating the foundation of risk control; (3) improve
the risk warning system, continue to strengthen risk identification, early warning and resolution
capabilities, do a good job in key risk prevention and management in a stable and orderly manner,
and continuously improve the Company's risk prevention capabilities.

a tour of the Guang’ao Port Area and Chaoshan Historical and Cultural Expo Center, allowing the
students to further understand Chaoshan’s history and culture, experience the beauty of their
hometown, and stimulate their feelings of love for the motherland, hometown and port. The tour also

assisting in the construction of their hometown. Xiamen Port actively implemented the rural
revitalisation policy to assist in the employment of some villagers in Shenwo Village and other
villages around the port area. The South China Operations Center actively organised its employees to

of Nanshan Port Special Service Station, Mount Malun environmental protection public welfare
activities, unpaid blood donation, and parent-child volunteer service activities, encouraging them to

CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2023
(Unless otherwise specified, the monetary unit shall be RMB.)
(I) GENERAL INFORMATION OF THE COMPANY
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "the Company") is a stock limited
company incorporated in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, on 16 January 1993.
The headquarter of the Company is located in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province. The Company and
its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "the Group") are principally engaged in the rendering of
port services, bonded logistics services and other businesses such as property development and
investment.
The consolidated and Company's financial statements have been approved by the Board of Directors
on 29 August 2023.
See Note (X) "Equity in Other Entities" for details of the scope of consolidated financial statements
for the current period. See Note (IX) "Changes in Scope of Consolidation" for details of changes in
the scope of consolidated financial statements for the current period.
(II) BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Basis of preparation of financial statements
The Group has adopted the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises ("ASBE") issued by the
Ministry of Finance ("MoF"). In addition, the Group has disclosed relevant financial information in
accordance with Compilation Rules for Information Disclosure by Companies Offering Securities
to the Public No. 15 - General Provisions on Financial Reports (2014 Revision).
Going concern

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2023
(Unless otherwise specified, the monetary unit shall be RMB.)
(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
1. Accounting year
The Group has adopted the calendar year as its accounting year, i.e. from 1 January to 31 December.
2. Operating cycle
An operating cycle refers to the period since when an enterprise purchases assets for processing
purpose till the realization of those assets in cash or cash equivalents. The Group is principally
engaged in the rendering of port services, bonded logistics services and other services such as
property development and investment with one year being an operating cycle.
3. Functional currency
Renminbi ("RMB") is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company
and its domestic subsidiaries operate. Therefore, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries choose
RMB as their functional currency. The Company's overseas subsidiaries choose their functional
currency on the basis of the primary economic environment in which they operate. The Company
adopts RMB to prepare its financial statements.
4. Basis of accounting and principle of measurement
The Group has adopted the accrual basis of accounting. Except for certain financial instruments
which are measured at fair value, the Group adopts the historical cost as the principle of
measurement of the financial statements. When the Group was restructured into a stock company,
fixed assets and intangible assets initially contributed by state-owned shareholders were recognized
based on valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department. Where
assets are impaired, provisions for asset impairment are made in accordance with relevant
requirements.
Where the historical cost is adopted as the measurement basis, assets are recorded at the amount of
cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the consideration given to acquire them at the time
of their acquisition. Liabilities are recorded at the amount of proceeds or assets received or the
contractual amounts for assuming the present obligation, or, at the amount of cash or cash
equivalents expected to be paid to settle the liabilities in the normal course of business.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Regardless of whether
that price is directly observable or estimated using valuation technique, fair value measurement and
disclosure in the financial statements are determined according to the above basis.
In the measurement of non-financial assets at fair value, market participants' ability to best utilize
such assets to generate most economic benefits, or the ability to sell such assets to other market
participants who are able to best utilize the assets to generate economic benefits is taken into
account.

(Unless otherwise specified, the monetary unit shall be RMB.)
(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued
4. Basis of accounting and principle of measurement - continued
For financial assets of which the transaction price is the fair value at initial recognition, and of
which the subsequent fair value measurement uses a valuation technique involving unobservable
inputs, the valuation technique should be calibrated so that the initial recognition result determined
using the valuation technique equals the transaction price.
Fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs
to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value
measurements in its entirety, which are described as follows:
Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that
the entity can access at the measurement date;
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
5. Business combinations
Business combinations are classified into business combinations involving enterprises under
common control and business combinations not involving enterprises under common control.
5.1 Business combinations involving enterprises under common control
A business combination involving enterprises under common control is a business combination in
which all of the combining enterprises are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both
before and after the combination, and that control is not transitory.
Assets and liabilities obtained shall be measured at their respective carrying amounts as recorded
by the combining entities at the date of the combination. The difference between the carrying
amount of the net assets obtained and the carrying amount of the consideration paid for the
combination is adjusted to the share premium in capital reserve. If the share premium is not
sufficient to absorb the difference, any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings.
Costs that are directly attributable to the combination are charged to profit or loss for the period in
which they are incurred.
5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill
A business combination not involving enterprises under common control is a business combination
in which all of the combining enterprises are not ultimately controlled by the same party or parties
before and after the combination.

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued
5. Business combinations - continued
5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill - continued
The cost of combination is the aggregate of the fair values, at the acquisition date, of the assets
given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued by the acquirer, in exchange for
control of the acquiree. Where a business combination not involving enterprises under common
control is achieved in stages that involve multiple transactions, the cost of combination is the sum
of the consideration paid at the acquisition date and the fair value at the acquisition date of the
acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree. Intermediary expenses (fees in respect of auditing,
legal services, valuation and consultancy services, etc.) and other administrative expenses
attributable to the business combination are recognized in profit or loss for the period when they
are incurred.
The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired by the acquirer in a
business combination that meet the recognition criteria shall be measured at fair value at the
acquisition date.
When a business combination contract provides for the acquirer's recovery of consideration
previously paid contingent on one or multiple future event(s), the Group recognizes the contingent
consideration provided in the contract as an asset, as part of the consideration transferred in the
business combination, and includes it in the cost of business combination at the fair value at the
acquisition date. Within 12 months after the acquisition, where the contingent consideration needs
to be adjusted as new or further evidences are obtained in respect of the circumstances existed at
the acquisition date, the adjustment shall be recognized and the amount originally recognized in
goodwill or non-operating income shall be adjusted. A change in or adjustment to the contingent
consideration under other circumstances shall be accounted for in accordance with Accounting
Standards for Business Enterprise No. 22 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement
(the "ASBE No. 22") and Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 13 - Contingencies.
Any changes or adjustments are included in profit or loss for the current period.
Where the cost of combination exceeds the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's
identifiable net assets, the difference is treated as an asset and recognized as goodwill, which is
measured at cost on initial recognition. Where the cost of combination is less than the acquirer's
interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets, the acquirer reassesses the
measurement of the fair values of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent
liabilities and measurement of the cost of combination. If after that reassessment, the cost of
combination is still less than the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net
assets, the acquirer recognizes the remaining difference immediately in profit or loss for the current
period.

5. Business combinations - continued
5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill - continued
If either the fair values of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired in a
combination or the cost of business combination can be determined only provisionally by the end
of the period in which the business combination is effected, the acquirer recognizes and measures
the combination using those provisional values. Any adjustments to those provisional values within
12 months after the acquisition date are treated as if they had been recognized and measured at the
acquisition date.
Goodwill arising on a business combination is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses,
and is presented separately in the consolidated financial statements.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is considered together with the related assets group
or portfolio of assets groups, i.e., goodwill is reasonably allocated to the related assets group or
portfolio of assets groups expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. An impairment
loss is recognized if the recoverable amount of the assets group or portfolio of assets groups (to
which the goodwill is allocated) is less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss is firstly
allocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to such assets group or portfolio
of assets groups, and then reduce the carrying amount of other assets pro-rata on the basis of the
carrying amount of each asset (other than goodwill) in the assets group or portfolio of assets groups.
Recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value of an asset net of cost of disposal and the present
value of the asset's estimated future cash flows.
The impairment loss of goodwill is recognized in profit or loss for the period when it is incurred
and will not be reversed in subsequent periods.
6. Consolidated financial statements
The scope of consolidation in the consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis of
control. Control exists when the investor has power over the investee; is exposed, or has rights, to
variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power over the
investee to affect its returns. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and
circumstances indicate that there are changes in the above elements of the definition of control.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases
when the Group loses control of the subsidiary.
For a subsidiary already disposed of by the Group, the operating results and cash flows before the
date of disposal (the date when control is lost) are included in the consolidated income statement
and consolidated cash flow statement, as appropriate.

6. Consolidated financial statements - continued
For subsidiaries acquired through a business combination involving enterprises not under common
control, the operating results and cash flows from the acquisition date (the date when control is
obtained) are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated cash flow statement,
as appropriate.
No matter when the business combination occurs in the reporting period, subsidiaries acquired
through a business combination involving enterprises under common control or the combined party
under merger by absorption are included in the Group's scope of consolidation as if they had been
included in the scope of consolidation from the date when they first came under the common control
of the ultimate controlling party. Their operating results and cash flows from the beginning of the
earliest reporting period or the date when they first came under the common control of the ultimate
controlling party are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated cash flow
statement, as appropriate.
The significant accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by the subsidiaries are
determined based on the uniform accounting policies and accounting periods set out by the
Company.
Where the accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by subsidiaries are inconsistent with
those of the Company, appropriate adjustments are made to the subsidiaries' financial statements in
accordance with the accounting policies of the Company.
The effect of intra-group transactions on the consolidated financial statements is eliminated on
consolidation.
The portion of subsidiaries' equity that is not attributable to the Company is treated as minority
interests and presented as "minority interests" in the consolidated balance sheet under the line item
of shareholders' equity. The portion of net profits or losses of subsidiaries for the period attributable
to minority interests is presented as "profit or loss attributable to minority interests" in the
consolidated income statement under the line item of net profit. The portion of comprehensive
income of subsidiaries for the period attributable to minority interests is presented as "total
comprehensive income attributable to minority shareholders" in the consolidated income statement
under the line item of total comprehensive income.
When the minority shareholders' share of loss of a subsidiary exceeds the minority shareholders'
share of the opening balance of owners' equity of the subsidiary, the excess amount is still allocated
against minority interests.
Acquisition of minority interests or partial disposal of equity investments in a subsidiary that do not
result in the loss of control over the subsidiary is accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying
amounts of the Company's interests and minority interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their
relative interests in the subsidiary. The difference between the amount by which the minority
interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is adjusted to capital
reserve. If the capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the excess is adjusted against
retained earnings.

Where equity interests in an acquiree are acquired in stages through multiple transactions,
ultimately constituting a business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the
accounting treatment shall be made taking into account whether these transactions are a "package
deal". If yes, these transactions are accounted for as a single transaction where control is obtained.
If no, they are accounted for as transactions where control is obtained at the acquisition date.
Specifically, the equity interests held in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date are remeasured at
the fair value at the acquisition date, and the difference between the fair value and carrying amount
is recognized in profit or loss for the period; where the equity interests held in the acquiree prior to
the acquisition date involve changes in other comprehensive income and other owners' equity under
the equity method, the changes are transferred to income for the period to which the acquisition
date is attributable.
Where the control over a subsidiary is lost due to partial disposal of equity investments or other
reasons, any retained interest is remeasured at its fair value at the date when control is lost. The
difference between (i) the aggregate of the consideration received on disposal and the fair value of
any retained interest and (ii) the share of the former subsidiary's net assets cumulatively calculated
from the acquisition date according to the original proportion of ownership interests is recognized
as investment income for the period in which control is lost, and the goodwill is offset accordingly.
Other comprehensive income associated with equity investments in the former subsidiary is
reclassified to investment income for the period in which control is lost.
Where the disposal of equity investments in a subsidiary until the control is lost is achieved in stages
through multiple transactions, the multiple transactions are usually considered as a package deal if
the terms, conditions and economic effects of the transactions satisfy one or several of the following
circumstances: (i) they are entered into at the same time or in contemplation of one another; (ii)
they form a complete transaction designed to achieve an overall commercial effect; (iii) the
occurrence of one transaction is dependent on the occurrence of at least one other transaction; (iv)
one transaction alone is not economically justified, but it is economically justified when considered
together with other transactions. Where the transactions of disposal of equity investments in a
subsidiary until the control is lost are a package deal, these transactions are accounted for as a single
transaction of disposal of a subsidiary resulting in loss of control. Before losing control, the
difference between each disposal consideration and the corresponding share of net assets of the
subsidiary continuously calculated from acquisition date is recognized as other comprehensive
income. When control is lost, the cumulated other comprehensive income is transferred to profit or
loss for the period in which control is lost. If the transactions of disposal of equity investments in a
subsidiary until control is lost are not a package deal, these transactions are accounted for as separate
transactions.
7. Joint arrangements
Joint arrangement refers to the arrangement jointly controlled by two or more participating parties.
The Group's joint arrangements have the following characteristics: (1) all the participating parties
are bound by the arrangement; (2) the arrangement is jointly controlled by two or more participating
parties. Any participating party cannot control the arrangement separately and any participating
party having joint control of the arrangement can stop other participating parties or the group of
participating parties from the separate control over the arrangement.

Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, and exists only when
the decisions on the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
Joint arrangements comprise of joint operations and joint ventures. A joint operation is a joint
arrangement whereby the parties sharing control have rights to the assets and assume liabilities
relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties sharing
control have rights to only the net assets of the arrangement.
8. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprises cash on hand and deposits that can be readily withdrawn on demand. Cash
equivalents are the Group's short-term (generally due within 3 months since the acquisition date),
highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are
subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
9. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies and translation of financial
statements denominated in foreign currencies
9.1 Transactions denominated in foreign currencies
A foreign currency transaction is recorded, on initial recognition, by applying the spot exchange
rate on the date of the transaction.
At the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated into functional currency
using the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from the
differences between the spot exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date and those on initial
recognition or at the previous balance sheet date are recognized in profit or loss for the period,
except that (1) exchange differences related to a specific-purpose borrowing denominated in foreign
currency that qualify for capitalization are capitalized as part of the cost of the qualifying asset
during the capitalization period; (2) exchange differences related to hedging instruments for the
purpose of hedging against foreign currency risks are accounted for using hedge accounting; (3)
exchange differences arising from changes in the gross carrying amounts (other than the amortized
cost) of monetary items classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income are
recognized as other comprehensive income.
When the consolidated financial statements include foreign operation(s), if there is a foreign
currency monetary item constituting a net investment in a foreign operation, exchange differences
arising from changes in exchange rates are recognized as "translation differences of financial
statements denominated in foreign currencies" in other comprehensive income, and in profit and
loss for the period upon disposal of the foreign operation.

value are re-translated at the spot exchange rates on the date the fair value is determined. Difference
between the re-translated functional currency amount and the original functional currency amount
is treated as changes in fair value (including changes of exchange rate) and is recognized in profit
and loss or as other comprehensive income.
9.2 Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies
For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, financial statements of a foreign
operation are translated from the foreign currency into RMB using the following method: all assets
and liabilities in the balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rates prevailing at the balance
sheet date; shareholders' equity items except for unappropriated profit are translated at the spot
exchange rates at the dates on which such items arise; all items in the income statement as well as
items reflecting the distribution of profits are translated at the average exchange rates of the
accounting period of the consolidated financial statements; the opening balance of unappropriated
profit is the translated closing balance of the previous year's unappropriated profit; the closing
balance of unappropriated profit is calculated and presented on the basis of each translated profit
distribution item. The difference between the translated assets and the aggregate of liabilities and
shareholders' equity items is recognized as other comprehensive income and included in
shareholders' equity.
Cash flows arising from a transaction in foreign currency and cash flows of an overseas subsidiary
are translated at average exchange rates during the accounting period of consolidated financial
statements. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents is regarded as a
reconciling item and presented separately in the cash flow statement as "effect of exchange rate
changes on cash and cash equivalents".
The prior year comparative figures are presented in the amounts translated based on the financial
statements for the prior year.
On disposal of the Group's entire interest in a foreign operation, or upon a loss of control over a
foreign operation due to partial disposal of equity investments in it or other reasons, the Group
transfers the accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financial statements of this
foreign operation attributable to the owners' equity of the Company and presented under other
comprehensive income, to profit or loss for the period in which the disposal occurs.

currencies related to this disposed part are re-attributed to minority interests and are not recognized
in profit and loss. For partial disposals of equity interests in foreign operations which are associates
or joint ventures, the proportionate share of the accumulated translation differences of financial
statements denominated in foreign currencies of foreign operations are reclassified to profit or loss.
10. Financial instruments
The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability when it becomes a party to contractual
provisions of a financial instrument.
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade
date basis.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. For financial assets and
financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss for the period, relevant transaction costs are
directly recognized in profit or loss; upon initial recognition of contract assets, accounts receivable
and notes receivable that do not contain significant financing component or without considering the
financing component included in the contract with a term not exceeding one year under the
Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue ("Revenue Standards"), the Group
adopts the transaction price as defined in the Revenue Standards for initial measurement.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or a
financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expenses over the relevant
accounting periods.
The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows through the
expected life of the financial asset or financial liability to the gross carrying amount of the financial
asset or to the amortized cost of the financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate,
the Group estimates future cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial asset
or financial liability (such as repayment in advance, extension, call option or other similar options)
(without considering the expected credit losses).

10. Financial instruments - continued
The amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability is the amount of a financial asset or a
financial liability initially recognized net of principal repaid, plus or less the cumulative amortized
amount arising from amortization of the difference between the amount initially recognized and the
amount at the maturity date using the effective interest method, net of cumulative credit loss
allowance (only applicable to financial assets).
10.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial assets
Subsequent to initial recognition, the Group's financial assets of various categories are subsequently
measured at amortized cost, at fair value through other comprehensive income or at fair value
through profit or loss.
If contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, and the financial asset is
held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect
contractual cash flows, the Group classifies the financial asset as financial assets at amortized cost.
Such types of financial assets mainly include cash and bank balances, notes receivable, accounts
receivable, other receivables, debt investments and long-term receivables.
If contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, and the financial asset is
held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows
and selling the financial asset, the Group classifies the financial asset as financial assets at fair value
through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"). Accounts receivable and notes receivable
classified as FVTOCI at acquisition are presented as receivables financing, while the remaining
items due within one year (inclusive) upon acquisition are presented under other current assets.
Other financial assets of such type are presented as other debt investments if they are due after one
year since the acquisition, or presented under non-current assets due within one year if they are due
within one year (inclusive) since the balance sheet date.
On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate non-trading equity instruments, other
than contingent consideration recognized through business combination not involving enterprises
under common control, as financial assets at FVTOCI on an individual basis. Such financial assets
at FVTOCI are presented as investments in other equity instruments.
A financial asset is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied:
It has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near term; or
On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Group
manages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual pattern of
short-term profit-taking; or
It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as a
hedging instrument.

10.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial assets - continued
Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") include those classified as
financial assets at FVTPL and those designated as financial assets at FVTPL.
Financial assets not satisfying the criteria of classification as financial assets at amortized cost
and financial assets at FVTOCI are classified as financial assets at FVTPL.
Upon initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate the financial assets as at
FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces accounting mismatch.
Financial assets at FVTPL assets other than derivative financial assets are presented as "held-for-
trading financial assets". Financial assets with a maturity over one year since the balance sheet date
(or without a fixed maturity) and expected to be held for over one year are presented under other
non-current financial assets.
10.1.1 Financial assets measured at amortized cost
Financial assets measured at amortized cost are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the
effective interest method. Gain or loss arising from impairment or derecognition is recognized in
profit or loss.
For financial assets measured at amortized cost, the Group recognizes interest income using the
effective interest method. The Group calculates and recognizes interest income by applying the
effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the financial assets, except for the following
circumstances:
For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, the Group calculates and
recognizes the interest income based on amortized cost of the financial assets and the credit-
adjusted effective interest rate.
10.1.2 Financial assets at FVTOCI
Changes in fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI are included in other comprehensive income,
except that related impairment losses or gains, interest income calculated using the effective interest
method and exchange gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss for the current period. Amounts
charged to profit or loss for each period equal to the amount charged to profit or loss as if it has
always been measured at amortized cost. Upon derecognition of the financial asset, the cumulative
gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income shall be transferred out from
other comprehensive income and recognized in profit or loss.

Changes in fair value of non-trading equity instrument investments designated as financial assets at
FVTOCI are recognized in other comprehensive income, and the cumulative gains or losses
previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred out and included in retained
earnings upon derecognition of the financial assets. During the period in which the Group holds the
non-trading equity instruments, revenue from dividends is recognized in profit or loss for the current
period when (1) the Group's right to collect dividends has been established; (2) it is probable that
the associated economic benefits will flow to the Group; and (3) the amount of dividends can be
measured reliably.
10.1.3 Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value. Gains or losses arising from
changes in fair values and dividends and interests related to the financial assets are recognized in
profit or loss.
10.2 Impairment of financial instruments
For financial assets at amortized cost, financial assets classified as at FVTOCI, lease receivables,
contract assets, loan commitments that are not financial liabilities at FVTPL, financial guarantee
contracts that are neither financial liabilities at FVTPL nor financial liabilities arising from transfer
of financial assets that does not satisfy the derecognition criteria or continuing involvement in the
transferred financial assets, the Group accounts for the impairment and recognizes the provision for
losses on the basis of expected credit loss ("ECL").
For all contract assets, accounts receivable and notes receivable arising from transactions regulated
by Revenue Standards, and lease receivables arising from transactions regulated by the Accounting
Standards for Business Enterprises No. 21 - Leases, the Group recognizes the provision for losses
at an amount equivalent to the lifetime ECL.
For other financial instruments, other than purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets,
the Group assesses changes in credit risks of the relevant financial asset since initial recognition at
each balance sheet date. If the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition of the
financial instruments, the Group recognizes the provision for losses at an amount equivalent to
lifetime ECL; if the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition of the
financial instruments, the Group recognizes the provision for losses at an amount equivalent to 12-
month ECL. The increase or reversal of credit loss provision for financial assets other than those
classified as at FVTOCI is recognized as impairment loss or gain and included in profit or loss for
the period. For financial assets classified as at FVTOCI, the credit loss provision is recognized in
other comprehensive income and the impairment loss or gain is included in profit or loss for the
period without reducing the carrying amount of the financial assets in the balance sheet.

10.2 Impairment of financial instruments - continued
Where the Group has measured the provision for losses at an amount equivalent to lifetime ECL of
a financial instrument in prior accounting period, but the financial instrument no longer satisfies the
criteria of significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition at the current balance sheet date,
the Group recognizes the provision for losses of the financial instrument at an amount equivalent
to 12-month ECL at the current balance sheet date, with any resulting reversal of provision for
losses recognized as impairment gains in profit or loss for the period.
10.2.1 Significant increase in credit risk
The Group uses reasonable and supportable forward-looking information to assess whether the
credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition by comparing the risk of a default
occurring on the financial instrument at the balance sheet date with the risk of a default occurring
on the financial instrument at the date of initial recognition. For loan commitments and financial
guarantee contracts, the date that the Group becomes a party to the irrevocable commitment is
considered as the date of initial recognition in applying the provisions on impairment of financial
instruments.
In particular, the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk has
increased significantly:
(1) Significant changes in internal price indicators of credit risk as a result of a change in credit
risk.
(2) Significant changes in the rates or other terms of an existing financial instrument if the
instrument was newly originated or issued at the balance sheet date (such as more stringent
covenants, increased amounts of collateral or guarantees, or higher rate of return).
(3) Significant changes in external market indicators of credit risk for the same financial
instrument or similar financial instruments with the same expected life. These indicators
include the credit spread, the credit swap prices for the borrower, the length of time or the
extent to which the fair value of a financial asset has been less than its amortized cost and
other market information related to the borrower, such as changes in the price of a borrower's
debt and equity instruments.
(4) An actual or expected significant change in the financial instrument's external credit rating.
(5) An actual or expected internal credit rating downgrade for the borrower.
(6) Adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a
significant change in the debtor's ability to meet its debt obligations.
(7) An actual or expected significant change in the operating results of the debtor.
(8) Significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same debtor.
(9) Significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the
debtor.

(10) Significant changes in the value of the collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality

economic motives to repay within the time limit specified in contract or affect the
probability of default.
(11) Significant changes in the debtor's economic motives to repay within the time limit specified

(12) Expected changes to loan contract, including the exemption or revision of contractual
obligations, the granting of interest-free periods, the jump in interest rates, the requirement
for additional collateral or guarantees, or other changes in the contractual framework for
financial instruments that may result from the breach of contract.
(13) Significant changes in the expected performance and behaviour of the debtor.
(14) Changes in the Group's credit management approach in relation to the financial instruments.
The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly
since initial recognition if the financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk at the
balance sheet date. A financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk if: i) it has a lower
risk of default; ii) the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations
in the near term; and iii) adverse changes in economic and business conditions in the longer term
may, but will not necessarily, reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfil its contractual cash flow
obligations.
10.2.2 Credit-impaired financial assets
When an event or several events that are expected to have adverse impact on the future cash flows
of the financial assets have occurred, the financial assets become credit-impaired. The evidences of
credit impairment of financial assets include the following observable information:
(1) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor.
(2) A breach of contract by the debtor, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal
payments.
(3) The creditor, for economic or legal reasons relating to the debtor's financial difficulty,
granting a concession to the debtor.
(4) It is probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganizations.
(5) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial
difficulties of the issuer or the debtor.
(6) Purchase or origination of a financial asset with a large scale of discount, which reflects
facts of credit loss incurred.

Based on the Group's internal credit risk management, the Group considers an event of default
occurs when information developed internally or obtained from external sources indicates that the
debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors, including the Group, in full (without taking into account any
collaterals held by the Group).
10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss
Lease receivables are assessed for ECL individually by the Group. In addition, the Group uses
impairment matrix to calculate ECL for notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables,
contract assets, debt investments and other debt investments on a portfolio basis. The Group
classifies financial instruments into different groups based on common risk characteristics.
Common credit risk characteristics include credit risk rating, the date of initial recognition,
remaining contractual period, industry of debtor and geographical location of the debtor.
The Group determines the ECL of relevant financial instruments using the following methods:
For a financial asset, the credit loss is the present value of the difference between the
contractual cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that the
Group expects to receive.
For a lease receivable, the credit loss is the present value of the difference between the
contractual cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that the
Group expects to receive.
For undrawn loan commitments (refer to Note (IV) 10.4.1.3 for details of accounting policies),
the ECL is the present value of the difference between the contractual cash flows that are due
to the Group if the holder of the loan commitments draws down the loan, and the cash flows
that the Group expects to receive if the loan is drawn down. The Group's estimation of the
ECL for loan commitments is consistent with its expectation of the loan commitments drawn
down.
For a financial guarantee contract (refer to Note (IV) 10.4.1.3 for details of accounting
policies), the expected loss is the present value of the expected payments to reimburse the
holder for a credit loss that it incurs less any amounts that the Group expects to receive from
the holder, the debtor or any other party.
For a financial asset that has become credit-impaired at the balance sheet date, but not a
purchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset, the credit loss is the difference
between the asset's gross carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows
discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate.

forecast of future economic position that is available without undue cost or effort at the balance
sheet date.
10.2.4 Write-down of financial assets
When the Group no longer reasonably expects that the contractual cash flows of financial assets
can be collected in aggregate or in part, the Group will directly write down the gross carrying
amount of the financial asset, which constitutes derecognition of relevant financial assets.
10.3 Transfer of financial assets
The Group will derecognize a financial asset if one of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) the
contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; (ii) the financial asset has been
transferred and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset is
transferred to the transferee; or (iii) although the financial asset has been transferred, the Group
neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial
asset but has not retained control of the financial asset.
If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a
financial asset, and it retains control of the financial asset, the Group will recognize the financial
asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferred financial asset and recognize an
associated liability. The Group will measure relevant liabilities as follows:
For transferred financial assets carried at amortized cost, the carrying amount of relevant
liabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvement
less amortized cost of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upon
transfer of financial assets) with addition of amortized cost of obligations assumed by the
Group (if the Group assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Relevant
liabilities are not designated as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
For transferred financial assets carried at fair value, the carrying amount of relevant financial
liabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvement
less fair value of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upon transfer
of financial assets) with addition of fair value of obligations assumed by the Group (if the
Group assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Accordingly, the fair
value of relevant rights and obligations shall be measured on an individual basis.

10.3 Transfer of financial assets - continued
For a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that satisfies the derecognition criteria, the difference
between (1) the carrying amount of the financial asset transferred and (2) the sum of the
consideration received from the transfer and any cumulative gain or loss that has been recognized
in other comprehensive income, is recognized in profit or loss. Where the transferred assets are non-
trading equity instrument investments designated as at FVTOCI, cumulative gains or losses
previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred out and included in retained
earnings.
If a part of the transferred financial asset qualifies for derecognition, the overall carrying amount of
the financial asset prior to transfer is allocated between the part that continues to be recognized and
the part that is derecognized, based on the respective fair values of those parts on transfer date. The
difference between (1) the sum of the consideration received for the part derecognized and any
cumulative gain or loss allocated to the part derecognized which has been previously recognized in
other comprehensive income, and (2) the carrying amount allocated to the part derecognized on
derecognition date is recognized in profit or loss. If the transferred asset is a non-trading equity
instrument investment designated as at FVTOCI, the cumulative gain or loss that has been
previously recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred out and included in retained
earnings.
If the transfer of a financial asset in its entirety does not satisfy the derecognition criteria, the Group
continues to recognize the transferred financial asset in its entirety. The consideration received from
transfer of assets is recognized as a financial liability upon receipt.
10.4 Classification of financial liabilities and equity instruments
Financial instruments issued by the Group are classified into financial liabilities or equity
instruments on the basis of the substance of the contractual arrangements and the economic nature
not only its legal form, together with the definition of financial liabilities and equity instruments on
initial recognition.
10.4.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities
On initial recognition, financial liabilities are classified into financial liabilities at FVTPL and other
financial liabilities.
10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL
Financial liabilities at FVTPL consist of held-for-trading financial liabilities (including derivatives
classified as financial liabilities) and those designated as at FVTPL. Except for derivative financial
liabilities presented separately, the financial liabilities at FVTPL are presented as held-for-trading
financial liabilities.

10.4 Classification of financial liabilities and equity instruments - continued
10.4.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities - continued
10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL - continued
A financial liability is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied:
It has been assumed principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term; or
On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Group
manages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual pattern of
short-term profit-taking; or
It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as a
hedging instrument.
A financial liability may be designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition when one of the following
conditions is satisfied: (i) such designation eliminates or significantly reduces accounting mismatch;
or (ii) the Group makes management and performance evaluation on a fair value basis, in
accordance with the Group's formally documented risk management or investment strategy, and
reports to key management personnel on that basis; or (iii) the qualified hybrid contract containing
embedded derivatives.
Held-for-trading financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value. Any gains or losses
arising from changes in the fair value and any dividend or interest expenses paid on the financial
liabilities are recognized in profit or loss.
For a financial liability designated as at FVTPL, the amount of changes in fair value of the financial
liability that are attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability shall be presented in other
comprehensive income, while other changes in fair value are included in profit or loss for the current
period. Upon the derecognition of such financial liability, the accumulated amount of change in fair
value due to the change in the credit risk of such financial liability, which was recognized in other
comprehensive income, is transferred to retained earnings. Any dividend or interest expense on the
financial liability is recognized in profit or loss. If the accounting treatment for the impact of the
change in credit risk of such financial liability in the above ways would create or enlarge an
accounting mismatch in profit or loss, the Group shall present all gains or losses on that liability
(including the effects of changes in the credit risk of that liability) in profit or loss for the period.
For financial liabilities arising from contingent consideration recognized by the Group as the
acquirer in the business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the Group
measures such financial liabilities at fair value, and includes the changes in the financial liabilities
in profit or loss for the period.

10.4.1.2 Other financial liabilities
Except for financial liabilities, financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments arising from
transfer of financial assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising from
continuing involvement in the transferred financial assets, other financial liabilities are
subsequently measured at amortized cost, with gain or loss arising from derecognition or
amortization recognized in profit or loss.
If the modification or renegotiation for the contract by the Group and its counterparties does not
result in derecognition of a financial liability subsequently measured at amortized cost but the
changes in contractual cash flows, the Group will recalculate the carrying amount of the financial
liability, with relevant gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. The Group will determine the
carrying amount of the financial liability based on the present value of renegotiated or modified
contractual cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate of the financial liability. For
all costs or expenses arising from modification or renegotiation of the contract, the Group will adjust
the modified carrying amount of the financial liability and make amortization during the remaining
term of the modified financial liability.
10.4.1.3 Financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to
reimburse the holder of the contract for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make
payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial guarantee contracts that are not designated as financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities arising from transfer of financial
assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising from continuing involvement in
the transferred financial assets, and loan commitments to provide a loan at a below-market interest
rate, which are not designated at fair value through profit or loss, are measured at the higher of: (1)
amount of loss provision; and (2) the amount initially recognized less cumulative amortization
amount determined based on the revenue standards.
10.4.2 Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Group derecognizes a financial liability (or part of it) when the underlying present obligation
(or part of it) is discharged. An agreement between the Group (the debtor) and the creditor to replace
the original financial liability with a new financial liability with substantially different terms is
accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new
financial liability.

When the Group derecognizes a financial liability or a part of it, it recognizes the difference between
the carrying amount of the financial liability (or part of the financial liability) derecognized and the
consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or new financial liabilities assumed)
in profit or loss.
10.4.3 Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group
after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued (including refinanced), repurchased,
sold and cancelled by the Group are recognized as changes of equity. Changes in fair value of equity
instruments is not recognized by the Group. Transaction costs related to equity transactions are
deducted from equity.
The Group recognizes the distribution to holders of the equity instruments as distribution of profits,
dividends paid do not affect total amount of shareholders' equity.
10.5 Derivatives and embedded derivatives
Derivatives include forward exchange contracts, currency swaps, interest rate swaps and foreign
exchange options. Derivatives are initially measured at fair value at the date when the derivative
contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value.
For a hybrid contract comprising of embedded derivatives and a host contract, if the host contract
is a financial asset, the Group does not separate the embedded derivatives from the hybrid contract
but takes the hybrid contract as a whole in applying relevant accounting standards regarding the
classification of financial assets.
If the host contract of the hybrid contract is not a financial asset, the embedded derivatives are
separated from the hybrid contract and treated as separate derivatives by the Group when they meet
all the following conditions:
(1) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to
those of the host contract.
(2) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the
definition of a derivative.
(3) the hybrid contract is not measured at fair value through profit or loss.

For the embedded derivative separated from the hybrid contract, the Group accounts for the host
contract in the hybrid contract with applicable accounting standards. If the fair value of the
embedded derivatives cannot be measured reliably by the Group according to the terms and
conditions of the embedded derivatives, the fair value of such derivatives are measured at the
difference between the fair value of the hybrid contract and the fair value of the host contract. After
adopting the above method, if the fair value of the embedded derivative still cannot be measured on
a stand-alone basis at acquisition date or subsequent balance sheet dates, the hybrid contract, as a
whole, is designated as financial instruments at FVTPL.
10.6 Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities
Where the Group has a legal right that is currently enforceable to offset the recognized financial
assets and financial liabilities, and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the financial
asset and settle the financial liability simultaneously, a financial asset and a financial liability shall
be offset and the net amount is presented in the balance sheet. Except for the above circumstances,
financial assets and financial liabilities shall be presented separately in the balance sheet and shall
not be offset.
10.7 Compound instrument
For convertible bonds issued by the Group that contain both liabilities and conversion option that
may convert the liabilities to its own equity instrument, upon initial recognition, the bonds are split
into liabilities and conversion option which are separately recognized. Therein, the conversion
option that exchanges a fixed amount of cash or other financial assets for a fixed amount of equity
instruments is accounted for as an equity instrument.
Upon initial recognition, the fair value of liability portion is determined based on the prevailing
market price of the bonds containing no conversion option. The overall issue price of the convertible
bonds net of the fair value of the liability portion is considered as the value of the conversion option
that enables the bonds holder to convert the bonds to equity instruments, and is included in other
equity instruments.
The liability portion of the convertible bonds is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the
effective interest method; the value of the conversion option classified as equity instrument remain
in equity instrument. The expiry or conversion of convertible bonds will not result in loss or gain.
The transaction costs incurred for issuance of the convertible bonds are allocated between the
liability portion and equity instrument portion in proportion to their respective fair value. The
transaction cost relating to the equity instrument portion is directly included in equity instrument;
while the transaction cost relating to the liability portion is included in the carrying amount of the
liability, and amortized over the lifetime of the convertible bonds using the effective interest method.

10.8 Reclassification of financial instruments
When the Group changes the business model to manage the financial assets, the financial assets
affected will be reclassified and no financial liabilities will be reclassified.
The financial assets are reclassified by the Group and are accounted for prospectively since the date
of reclassification (i.e. the first date of the initial reporting period after the business model of which
the financial assets are reclassified by the enterprise is changed).
Where a financial asset at amortized cost is reclassified as a financial assets FVTPL by the Group,
such financial asset is measured at fair value at the date of reclassification and the difference
between the original carrying amount and the fair value is recognized in profit or loss for the period.
Where a financial asset at amortized cost is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTOCI by the Group,
such financial asset is measured at the fair value at the date of reclassification, and the difference
between the original amount and the fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income.
Where a financial asset at FVTOCI is reclassified as a financial asset at amortized cost by the Group,
the accumulated gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are
transferred out and the fair value at the date of reclassification is adjusted. The adjusted fair value
is determined as the new carrying amount, as if the financial asset has been always measured at
amortized cost. The reclassification of the financial asset shall not affect its effective interest rate
or the measurement of ECL.
Where a financial asset at FVTOCI is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTPL by the Group, such
financial asset continues to be measured at fair value. At the same time, the accumulated gains or
losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to profit or loss for the
period.
Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified as a financial asset at amortized cost by the Group,
the fair value at the date of reclassification is recognized as the new gross carrying amount.
Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTOCI by the Group, such
financial asset continues to be measured at fair value.
Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified, the effective interest rate is determined on the
basis of the fair value of the financial asset at the date of reclassification.

11. Accounts receivable
The Group performs internal credit ratings on customers and determines expected losses rate of
notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables and long-term receivables. Basis for
determining ratings and the expected losses rates are as follows:
Internal Average expected
Basis for determining portfolio
credit rating loss rate (%)
Customers can make repayments within credit term and have good credit
A records based on historical experience. The probability of default on 0.00-0.10
payment of due amounts is extremely low in the foreseeable future.
The customer may have overdue payment based on historical experience
B 0.10-0.30
but they can make repayments.
The evidences indicate that the overdue credit risks of the customer are
C 0.30-50.00
significantly increased and there is probability of default on payment.
The evidences indicate that the accounts receivable are impaired or the
D customer has significant financial difficulty. The amounts cannot be 50.00-100.00
recovered in the foreseeable future.
12. Receivables financing
Notes receivable classified as at FVTOCI are presented as receivables financing if they are due
within one year (including one year) from the date of acquisition; or presented as other debt
investments if they are due after one year from the date of acquisition. For related accounting
policies, refer to Note (IV) 10.
13. Inventories
13.1 Categories of inventories
Inventories include raw materials, goods on hand and others. Inventories are initially measured at
cost. Cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other expenditures
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
13.2 Valuation methods of inventories upon delivery
The actual cost of inventories upon delivery is calculated using the weighted average method and
first-in-first-out method.
13.3 Basis for determining net realizable value of inventories and provision methods for decline
in value of inventories
At the balance sheet date, inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. If
the cost of inventories is higher than the net realizable value, a provision for decline in value of
inventories is made.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the
estimated costs of completion, the estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes.
Net realizable value is determined on the basis of clear evidence obtained, after taking into
consideration purposes of inventories being held and effect of post balance sheet events.
Provision for decline in value of other inventories is made based on the excess of cost of inventory
over its net realizable value on an item-by-item basis.
After the provision for decline in value of inventories is made, if the circumstances that previously
caused inventories to be written down below cost no longer exist so that the net realizable value of
inventories is higher than their cost, the original provision for decline in value is reversed and the
reversal is included in profit or loss for the period.
13.4 Inventory count system
The perpetual inventory system is adopted as inventory count system.
13.5 Amortization methods for low cost and short-lived consumable items and packaging
materials
Packaging materials and low cost and short-lived consumable items are amortized using the
immediate write-off method.
14. Contract assets
14.1 Recognition and criteria of contract assets
A contract asset represents the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that
the Group has transferred to a customer, and such right depends on factors other than the passage
of time. The Group's unconditional right (i.e., depending on the passage of time only) to receive
consideration from the customer is separately presented as receivables.

15. Assets held for sale
Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held-for-sale category when the Group
recovers the carrying amount through a sale (including an exchange of nonmonetary assets that has
commercial substance) rather than continuing use.
Non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held-for-sale are required to satisfy the following
conditions: (1) the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition
according to the terms that are usual and customary for sales of such asset or disposal group; (2)
the sale is highly probable, i.e. the Group has made a resolution about selling plan and obtained a
confirmed purchase commitment and the sale is expected to be completed within one year.
When there is loss of control over a subsidiary due to disposal of investments in the subsidiary, and
the proposed disposal of investments in the subsidiary satisfies classification criteria of held-for-
sale category, the investments in subsidiaries are classified as held-for-sale category as a whole in
the Company's separate financial statements, and all assets and liabilities of subsidiaries are
classified as held-for-sale category in the consolidated financial statements regardless of whether
that part of the equity investments are remained after the sale.
The Group measures the non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held-for-sale at the
lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Where the carrying amount is higher
than the fair value net of costs to sell, the carrying amount should be reduced to the fair value net
of costs to sell, and such reduction is recognized in impairment loss of assets and included in profit
or loss for the period. Meanwhile, provision for impairment of held-for-sale assets is made. When
there is an increase in the fair value of non-current assets held-for-sale net of costs to sell at the
balance sheet date, the original reduction should be reversed in impairment loss of assets recognized
after the classification of held-for-sale category, and the reversal amount is included in profit or loss
for the period. The impairment losses recognized before such assets are classified as held-for-sale
category shall not be reversed.
Non-current assets classified as held-for-sale or non-current assets in disposal groups are not
depreciated or amortized, and interest and other costs of liabilities of disposal groups classified as
held-for-sale continue to be recognized.
All or part of equity investments in associates or joint ventures are classified as held-for-sale assets.
For the part that is classified as held-for-sale, it is no longer accounted for using the equity method
since the date of the classification.
If an asset or a disposal group classified as held for sale subsequently no longer satisfy the criteria
for recognition as held-for-sale, the Group shall cease to classify the asset or disposal group as held
for sale. It shall be measured at the lower of (1) the carrying amount of the asset or disposal group
before being classified as held for sale, as adjusted for any depreciation, amortization or impairment
that would have been recognized had the asset or disposal group not been classified as held for sale;
and (2) the recoverable amount at the date of the decision not to sell.
If equity investments in associates or joint ventures classified as held for sale no longer satisfy the
criteria of classification as held-for-sale, such investments are accounted for retrospectively using
the equity method from the date when they are classified as held for sale. The financial statements
for the period of classification as held-for-sale are adjusted accordingly.

16. Long-term equity investments
16.1 Basis for determining joint control and significant influence over investee
Control is archived when the Group has the power over the investee and has rights to variable
returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect its
returns. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an arrangement, and exists
only when the decisions on relevant activities of the arrangement require unanimous consent of
participants sharing control. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and
operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
When determining whether an investing enterprise is able to exercise control or significant
influence over an investee, the effect of potential voting rights of the investee (for example, warrants
and convertible debts) held by the investing enterprises or other parties that are currently exercisable
or convertible shall be considered.
16.2 Determination of initial investment cost
For a long-term equity investment acquired through a business combination involving enterprises
under common control, the share of carrying amount of owners' equity of the acquiree in the
consolidated financial statements of ultimate controlling party is recognized as initial investment
cost of long-term equity investment at the date of combination. The difference between the initial
investment cost and the carrying amount of cash paid, non-cash assets transferred and liabilities
assumed shall be adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient to
absorb the difference, any excess is adjusted to retained earnings. If the consideration of the
combination is satisfied by the issue of equity securities, the initial investment cost of the long-term
equity investment is the share of carrying amount of owners' equity of the acquiree in the
consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party at the date of combination. The
aggregate face value of the shares issued shall be accounted for as share capital. The difference
between the initial investment cost and the aggregate face value of the shares issued is adjusted to
capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, any excess
is adjusted to retained earnings. Where equity interests in an acquiree are acquired in stages through
multiple transactions, ultimately constituting a business combination involving enterprises under
common control, the accounting treatment shall be made taking into account whether these
transactions are a "package deal". If yes, these transactions are accounted for as a single transaction
where control is obtained. If no, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment is the
share of carrying amount of owners' equity of the acquiree in the ultimate controlling party's
consolidated financial statements at the date of combination. The difference between the initial
investment cost and the sum of carrying amount of equity investments previously held in the
acquiree and the new investment cost is adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve
is not sufficient to absorb the difference, any excess is adjusted to retained earnings. Other
comprehensive income recognized for the previously held equity investments under the equity
method or non-trading equity instrument investments designated as at FVTOCI is not subject to
accounting treatment temporarily.

16.2 Determination of initial investment cost - continued
For a long-term equity investment acquired through business combination not involving enterprises
under common control, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment acquired is
the cost of acquisition.
The absorbing party's or acquirer's intermediary expenses (fees in respect of auditing, legal services,
valuation and consultancy services, etc.) and other administrative expenses attributable to the
business combination are recognized in profit or loss for the period when they are incurred.
The long-term equity investment acquired otherwise than through a business combination is initially
measured at its cost. When the entity is able to exercise significant influence or joint control (but
not control) over an investee due to additional investment, the cost of long-term equity investments
is the sum of the fair value of previously-held equity investments determined in accordance with
the ASBE No. 22 and the additional investment cost.
16.3 Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss
16.3.1 Long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method
Long-term equity investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method in the
Company's separate financial statements. A subsidiary is an investee that is controlled by the Group.
Under the cost method, a long-term equity investment is measured at initial investment cost.
Additional or recovered investment is adjusted to the cost of long-term equity investment.
Investment income is recognized in the period in accordance with the attributable share of cash
dividends or profit distributions declared by the investee.
16.3.2 Long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method
Except for investments in associates and joint ventures completely or partly classified as held-for-
sale, the Group accounts for investment in associates and joint ventures using the equity method.
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. A joint venture is a joint
arrangement whereby the Group has rights to only the net assets of the arrangement.

Under the equity method, where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds
the Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition,
no adjustment is made to the initial investment cost. Where the initial investment cost is less than
the Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition,
the difference is recognized in profit or loss for the period, and the cost of the long-term equity
investment is adjusted accordingly.
Under the equity method, the Group recognizes its share of the net profit or loss and other
comprehensive income of the investee for the period as investment income and other
comprehensive income respectively for the period. Meanwhile, the carrying amount of the long-
term equity investment is adjusted. The carrying amount of the long-term equity investment shall
be reduced by the attributable portion of profit distributions or cash dividends declared by the
investee. Other changes in owners' equity of the investee other than net profit or loss and other
comprehensive income are correspondingly adjusted to the carrying amount of the long-term equity
investment, and recognized in capital reserve. The Group recognizes its share of the investee's net
profit or loss based on the fair value of the investee's individual identifiable assets, etc. at the
acquisition date after making appropriate adjustments. When the investee's accounting policies and
accounting period are inconsistent with those of the Group, the Group recognizes investment
income and other comprehensive income after making appropriate adjustments to the financial
statements of the investee to conform to the Group's accounting policies and accounting period.
However, unrealized gains or losses resulting from the Group's transactions with its associates and
joint ventures, which do not constitute a business, are eliminated based on the proportion
attributable to the Group and then investment gains or losses are recognized on such basis. However,
unrealized losses resulting from the Group's transactions with its associates and joint ventures which
represent impairment losses on the transferred assets are not eliminated.
The Group recognize its share of net losses of the investee to the extent that the carrying amount of
the long-term equity investment together with any long-term interests that in substance form part
of its net investment in the investee are reduced to zero. Except that if the Group has incurred
obligations to assume additional losses, a provision is recognized according to the obligation
expected, and recorded in the investment loss for the period. Where net profits are subsequently
made by the investee, the Group resumes recognizing its share of those profits only after its share
of the profits exceeds the share of losses previously not recognized.

16.4 Disposal of long-term equity investments
On disposal of a long-term equity investment, the difference between the carrying amount and
proceeds actually received is recognized in profit or loss for the period. For long-term equity
investments accounted for using the equity method, if the remaining interest after disposal is still
accounted for using the equity method, other comprehensive income previously recognized under
the equity method is accounted for on the same basis as if the investee had directly disposed of
related assets or liabilities, and is transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis;
owners' equity recognized due to changes in other owners' equity of the investee (other than net
profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution) is transferred to profit or loss for
the period on a pro rata basis. For long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method,
if the remaining interest after disposal is still accounted for using the cost method, other
comprehensive income previously recognized under the equity method or in accordance with the
standards for the recognition and measurement of financial instruments before obtaining the control
over the investee, is accounted for on the same basis as if the investee had directly disposed of
related assets or liabilities, and is transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis;
changes in other owners' equity (other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profit
distribution) in the investee's net assets recognized under the equity method is transferred to profit
or loss for the period on a pro rata basis.
Where the Group loses control over the investee due to partial disposal of equity investments, if the
remaining equity after disposal enables the Group to exercise joint control or significant influence
over the investee, the remaining equity is accounted for using the equity method and adjusted as if
they are accounted for using the equity method since the acquisition date in preparing separate
financial statements; if the remaining equity after disposal does not enable the Group to exercise
joint control or significant influence over the investee, it is accounted for according to relevant
provisions of the standards on recognition and measurement of financial instruments, and the
difference between the fair value and carrying amount at date of losing control is recognized in
profit or loss for the period. Before the Group obtains control over the investee, other
comprehensive income recognized under the equity method or the standards on recognition and
measurement of financial instruments, is accounted for on the same basis as if the investee had
directly disposed of related assets or liabilities when the control over the investee is lost; other
changes in owners' equity (other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profit
distribution) in the investee's net assets recognized under the equity method is transferred to profit
or loss for the period when the control over the investee is lost. Where the remaining equity after
disposal is accounted for using the equity method, other comprehensive income and other owners'
equity are transferred on a pro rata basis. Where the remaining equity after disposal is accounted
for in accordance with the standards on recognition and measurement of financial instruments, other
comprehensive income and other owners' equity are all transferred.

16.4 Disposal of long-term equity investments - continued
Where the Group loses joint control or significant influence over the investee after partial disposal
of equity investments, the remaining equity after disposal is accounted for in accordance with the
standards on recognition and measurement of financial instruments, and the difference between fair
value at the date of losing joint control or significant influence and carrying amount is recognized
in profit or loss for the period. Other comprehensive income previously recognized under the equity
method, is accounted for on the same basis as if the investee had directly disposed of related assets
or liabilities when the equity method is not adopted. Owners' equity recognized due to other changes
in owners' equity other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution
are transferred to investment income for the period when the equity method is not adopted.
Where the Group disposes of its equity investments in subsidiaries in stages through multiple
transactions until it loses control over the subsidiaries, if these transactions are a "package deal",
they are accounted for as a single transaction of disposal of equity investments in subsidiaries. The
difference between each disposal consideration and the corresponding carrying amount of the long-
term equity investments disposed before the control is lost is first recognized as other
comprehensive income, and then fully transferred to profit or loss for the period when the control
is lost.
17. Investment properties
Investment property is property held by the Group to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both.
It includes a land use right that is leased out and a building that is leased out.
An investment property is measured initially at cost. Subsequent expenditures incurred for such
investment property are included in the cost of the investment property if it is probable that
economic benefits associated with an investment property will flow to the Group and the subsequent
expenditures can be measured reliably. Other subsequent expenditures are recognized in profit or
loss for the period in which they are incurred.
The Group uses the cost model for subsequent measurement of investment property, and adopts a
depreciation or amortization policy for the investment property which is consistent with that for
buildings or land use rights.
An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when it is permanently withdrawn from
use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal.
When an investment property is sold, transferred, retired or damaged, the Group recognizes the
amount of any proceeds on disposal net of the carrying amount and related taxes in profit or loss
for the period.

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued
18. Fixed assets and depreciation
Fixed assets are tangible assets that are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services,
for rental to others, or for administrative purposes, and have useful lives of more than one
accounting year. A fixed asset is recognized only when it is probable that economic benefits
associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.
Fixed assets are initially measured at cost. When the Group is restructured into a stock company,
the fixed assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on the
valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department.
Subsequent expenditures incurred for the fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset if it
is probable that economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the
subsequent expenditures can be measured reliably. Meanwhile the carrying amount of the replaced
part is derecognized. Other subsequent expenditures are recognized in profit or loss for the period
in which they are incurred.
A fixed asset is depreciated over its useful life using the straight-line method since the month
subsequent to the one in which it is ready for intended use. The useful life, estimated net residual
value rate and annual depreciation rate of each category of fixed assets are as follows:
Estimated Annual
Category Useful life
residual value rate (%) depreciation rate (%)
Port and terminal facilities 5-50 years 5.00 1.90-19.00
Buildings 5-50 years 5.00 1.90-19.00
Machinery and equipment, furniture
3-20 years 5.00 4.75-31.67
and fixture and other equipment
Motor vehicles and cargo ships 5-25 years 5.00 3.80-19.00
Estimated net residual value of a fixed asset is the estimated amount that the Group would currently
obtain from disposal of the asset, after deducting the estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were
already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life.
If a fixed asset is upon disposal or no future economic benefits are expected to be generated from
its use or disposal, the fixed asset is derecognized. When a fixed asset is sold, transferred, retired or
damaged, the amount of any proceeds on disposal of the asset net of the carrying amount and related
taxes is recognized in profit or loss for the period.
The Group reviews the useful life and estimated net residual value of a fixed asset and the
depreciation method applied at least once at each financial year-end, and accounts for any change
as a change in an accounting estimate.
19. Construction in progress
Construction in progress is measured at its actual costs. The actual costs include various
construction expenditures during the construction period, borrowing costs capitalized before it is
ready for intended use and other relevant costs. Construction in progress is not depreciated.
Construction in progress is transferred to a fixed asset when it is ready for intended use.

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued
20. Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying
asset are capitalized when expenditures for such asset and borrowing costs are incurred and
activities relating to the acquisition, construction or production of the asset that are necessary to
prepare the asset for its intended use or sale have commenced. Capitalization of borrowing costs
ceases when the qualifying asset being acquired, constructed or produced becomes ready for its
intended use or sale. Capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended during periods in which the
acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset is interrupted abnormally and when the
interruption is for a continuous period of more than 3 months. Capitalization is suspended until the
acquisition, construction or production of the asset is resumed. Other borrowing costs are
recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
Where funds are borrowed under a specific-purpose borrowing, the amount of interest to be
capitalized is the actual interest expense incurred on that borrowing for the period less any bank
interest earned from depositing the borrowed funds before being used on the asset or any investment
income on the temporary investment of those funds. Where funds are borrowed under general-
purpose borrowings, the Group determines the amount of interest to be capitalized on such
borrowings by applying a capitalization rate to the weighted average of the excess of cumulative
expenditures on the asset over the amounts of specific-purpose borrowings. The capitalization rate
is the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the general-purpose borrowings. During
the capitalization period, exchange differences related to a specific-purpose borrowing denominated
in foreign currency are all capitalized. Exchange differences in connection with general-purpose
borrowings are recognized in profit or loss for the period in which they are incurred.
21. Intangible assets
21.1 Intangible assets
Intangible assets include land use rights, terminal operating rights and others.
An intangible asset is measured initially at cost. When the Group was restructured into a stock
company, the intangible assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized
based on the valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department.
Except for port operation rights, when an intangible asset with a finite useful life is available for
use, its original cost is amortized over its estimated useful life. The terminal operating rights under
output method are amortized over the operating periods according to the ratio of the estimated
minimum guaranteed throughput to the estimated minimum guaranteed total throughput. When the
estimated minimum guaranteed throughput cannot be measured reliably, the straight-line method
will be used for amortization over the operating periods. An intangible asset with indefinite useful
life is not amortized.

Others Straight-line method 5-50 -
For an intangible asset with a finite useful life, the Group reviews the useful life and amortization
method at the end of the year, and makes adjustments when necessary.
21.2 Research and development expenditure
Expenditure during the research phase is recognized as an expense in the period in which it is
incurred.
Expenditure during the development phase that meets all of the following conditions at the same
time is recognized as an intangible asset. Expenditure during development phase that does not meet
the following conditions is recognized in profit or loss for the period.
(1) it is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use
or sale.
(2) the Group has the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it.
(3) the Group can demonstrate the ways in which the intangible asset will generate economic
benefits, including the evidence of the existence of a market for the output of the intangible
asset or the intangible asset itself or, if it is to be used internally, the usefulness of the
intangible asset.
(4) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the
development and the ability to use or sell the intangible asset.
(5) the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development phase can be
reliably measured.
If the expenditures cannot be distinguished between the research phase and development phase, the
Group recognizes all of them in profit or loss for the period. The costs of intangible assets generated
by the internal research only include the total expenditure incurred for the period from the time
point when the capitalization criteria are satisfied to date when intangible assets are ready for
intended use. For the identical intangible asset, the expenditures expensed and included in profit or
loss before they qualify for capitalization during the development process are not adjusted.

22. Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill
The Group assesses at the balance sheet date whether there is any indication that the long-term
equity investments, investment properties measured using the cost method, fixed assets,
construction in progress, right-of-use assets, intangible assets with a finite useful life and assets
related to contract costs may be impaired. If there is any indication that such assets may be impaired,
recoverable amounts are estimated for such assets. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life and
intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, irrespective of whether
there is any indication that the assets may be impaired.
Recoverable amount is estimated on an individual basis. If it is not practical to estimate the
recoverable amount of an individual asset, the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the
asset belongs will be estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value
less costs of disposal and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the
asset.
If the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount, the deficit
is accounted for as an impairment loss and is recognized in profit or loss.
Once the impairment loss of above-mentioned asset is recognized, it shall not be reversed in any
subsequent period.
23. Long-term prepaid expenses
Long-term prepaid expenses represent expenses incurred that should be borne and amortized over
the current and subsequent periods (together of more than one year). Long-term prepaid expenses
are amortized using the straight-line method over the expected periods in which benefits are derived.
24. Contract liabilities
A contract liability represents the Group's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for
consideration received or receivable from the customer. The contract assets and contract liabilities
under the same contract are presented on a net basis.
25. Employee benefits
Employee benefits are all forms of considerations given by the Group in exchange for services
rendered by employees or for the termination of employment. Employee benefits include short-term
benefits, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits.

25. Employee benefits - continued
25.1 Short-term employee benefits
Short-term benefits refer to the employee benefits that the Group is required to make full payments
within the 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees have
rendered relevant services, except the post-employment benefits and termination benefits.
Specifically, the short-term benefits include: employee salaries, bonuses, allowances and subsidies,
employee benefits, social insurance contributions such as the medical insurance, the work injury
insurance and the maternity insurance, housing funds, union running costs and employee education
costs, short-term paid absence, short-term profit sharing plan, non-monetary welfare and other
short-term benefits.
Short-term employee benefits payable are recognized as liabilities, with a corresponding charge to
the profit or loss for the period or included in the costs of related assets in the accounting period in
which employees provide services to the Group. Staff welfare expenses incurred by the Group are
recognized in profit or loss for the period or the costs of related assets based on the actually occurred
amounts when it actually occurred. Non-monetary staff welfare expenses are measured at fair value.
For the Group's payments of social security contributions for employees such as premiums or
contributions on medical insurance, work injury insurance and maternity insurance, and payments
of housing funds, as well as union running costs and employee education costs provided in
accordance with relevant requirements, the amount of employee benefits are calculated according
to prescribed bases and percentages and recognized as liabilities, with a corresponding charge to
the profit or loss for the period or included in the costs of related assets in the accounting period in
which employees have rendered services.
25.2 Post-employment benefits
Post-employment benefits refer to the rewards and benefits of various forms provided by the Group
after the employees have retired or terminated the labor relationship with the enterprises for the
services rendered by the employees, exclusive of the short-term benefits and the termination
benefits. The post-employment benefits consist of the pension insurance, the annuity, the
unemployment insurance and other post-employment benefits.
Post-employment benefit plans are classified by the Group into defined contribution plans and
defined benefit plans. The post-employment benefit plan refers to agreements the Group entered
into with the employees on the post-employment benefits or regulations or measures established by
the Group for provisions of the post-employee benefits, among which the defined contribution plan
refers to the post-employment benefit plan under which the Group shall no longer undertake any
obligations of payments after paying fixed expenses to independent funds; the defined benefit plans
refer to the post-employment benefit plans other than the defined contribution plans. During the
accounting period in which the employees have rendered services to the Group, the amounts payable
calculated based on the defined contribution plan are recognized as liabilities and included in profit
or loss for the period or included in costs of related assets.

25.2 Post-employment benefits - continued
For defined benefit plans, the Group attributes the welfare obligations arising from the defined
benefit plans to the period in which employees provide services to the Group according to the
formula determined based on the projected cumulative benefit unit method, and includes them in
profit or loss for the period or costs of related assets. Defined benefit costs are categorized as follows:
Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on
settlements);
Net interest of net liabilities or assets of defined benefit plans (including interest income of
planned assets, interest expenses of defined benefit plan liabilities and effect of asset ceiling);
and
Changes arising from remeasurement of net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans.
Service costs and net interest of net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans are recognized
in profit or loss for the period or included in costs of related assets. Changes arising from
remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability or asset (including actuarial gains and losses, the
return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability
or asset, and any change in the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest
on the net defined benefit liability or asset) are recognized in other comprehensive income.
The deficit or surplus resulting from the present value of the defined benefit plan obligation less the
fair value of the defined benefit plan assets is recognized as a net defined benefit plan liability or
asset.
25.3 Termination benefits
Termination benefits refer to the compensations the Group pay to the employees for terminating the
employment relationship with employees before the expiry of the employment contracts or
encouraging employees to accept voluntary redundancy. Where the Group provides termination
benefits to employees, the liabilities arising from termination benefits are recognized and included
in profit or loss for the period at the earlier of: (1) when the Group cannot unilaterally withdraw the
offer of termination benefits because of the termination plan or a curtailment proposal; and (2) when
the Group recognizes costs or expenses related to restructuring that involves the payment of
termination benefits.
25.4 Other long-term employee benefits
Other long-term employee benefits refer to all employee benefits except for short-term benefits,
post-employment benefits, and termination benefits.

Other long-term employee benefits that qualify as defined contribution plans are treated in
accordance with the relevant provisions of the defined contribution plans mentioned above, except
that the net liability or net asset for other long-term employee benefits is recognized and measured
in accordance with the relevant provisions of the defined benefit plans. At the end of the reporting
period, employee benefit costs arising from other long-term employee benefits are recognized as
three components: service cost, net interest on the net liability or net asset for other long-term
employee benefits, and changes resulting from the remeasurement of the net liability or net asset
for other long-term employee benefits. The total net amount of these items is included in profit or
loss for the period or cost of related assets.
The Group provides internal retirement benefits to employees accepting internal retirement
arrangements. Internal retirement benefits refer to payments of salaries and social security
contributions for employees who have not reached the retirement age regulated by the country and
are approved to quit the job voluntarily. For internal retirement benefits, the internal retirement
benefits the Group is expected to pay during the period from the date when employees stop
rendering services to the date of normal retirement are recognized as liabilities at the present value
and included in profit or loss for the period when relevant recognition requirements of the internal
retirement benefits are met.
26. Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation related with contingencies, and
it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and the
amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the
present obligation at balance sheet date, taking into account factors pertaining to a contingency such
as the risks, uncertainties and time value of money. Where the effect of the time value of money is
material, the amount of the provision is determined by discounting the related future cash outflows.
Where all or some of the expenditure required to settle a provision is expected to be reimbursed by
a third party, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset only when it is virtually certain
that reimbursement will be received, and the amount of reimbursement recognized does not exceed
the carrying amount of the provision.
27. Revenue recognition
The Group's revenue is mainly from the following business types:
(1) Port services;
(2) Bonded logistics services;
(3) Other services such as property development and investment.

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued
27. Revenue recognition - continued
The Group recognizes revenue based on the transaction price allocated to such performance
obligation when a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when "control" of the goods or services
underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. A performance
obligation represents the commitment that a good and service that is distinct shall be transferred by
the Group to the customer. Transaction price refers to the consideration that the Group is expected
to charge due to the transfer of goods or services to the customer, but it does not include payments
received on behalf of third parties and amounts that the Group expects to return to the customer.
It is a performance obligation satisfied during a period of time and the Group recognizes revenue
during a period of time according to the progress of performance if one of the following conditions
is met: (i) the customer obtains and consumes economic benefits at the same time of the Group's
performance; (ii) the customer is able to control goods in progress during the Group's performance;
(iii) goods or services generated during the Group's performance have irreplaceable utilization, and
the Group is entitled to collect amounts of cumulative performance part which have been done up
to now. Otherwise, the Group will recognize revenue at the point in time when the customer obtains
control over relative goods or services.
The Group adopts the output method, i.e. the value of goods or services transferred to customers to
determine the appropriate progress of performance. Where the progress cannot be determined
reasonably, the revenue is recognized based on the amount of cost that is expected to be
compensated based on the cost already incurred, until the progress of performance is reasonably
determined.
Contract assets refers to the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that
the Group has transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than the
passage of time. Accounting policies relating to the impairment of contract asset are specified in
Note (IV) 10. The Company's unconditional (i.e., depending on the passage of time only) right to
receive consideration from the customer is separately presented as receivables.
Contract liabilities refers to the Company's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer
for which the Company has already received consideration from the customer.
Contract assets and contract liabilities under the same contract are presented at net amount.
If there are two or more of performance obligations included in the contract, at the inception of the
contract, the Group allocates the transaction price to each single performance obligation based on
the proportion of stand-alone selling price of goods or services promised in each stand-alone
performance obligation. However, if there is conclusive evidence indicating that the contract
discount or variable consideration is only relative with one or more (not the whole) performance
obligations in the contract, the Group will allocate the contract discount or variable consideration
to relative one or more performance obligations. Stand-alone selling price refers to the price of a
single sale of goods or services. If the stand-alone selling price cannot be observed directly, the
Group estimates the stand-alone selling price through comprehensive consideration of all relative
information that can be reasonably acquired and maximum use of observable inputs.

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued
27. Revenue recognition - continued
In case of the existence of variable consideration (such as sales discount) in the contract, the Group
shall determine the best estimate of variable consideration based on the expected value or the most
likely amount. The transaction price including variable consideration shall not exceed the amount
of the cumulatively recognized revenue which is unlikely to be significantly reversed when relevant
uncertainty is eliminated. At each balance sheet date, the Group re-estimates the amount of variable
consideration which should be included in transaction price.
Where the customer pays non-cash consideration, the Group recognizes the transaction price based
on the fair value of the non-cash consideration. Where the fair value of the non-cash consideration
cannot be reasonably estimated, the Group recognizes the transaction price indirectly by reference
to the stand-alone price of the promised goods or services promised transferred to the customer.
Where the contract includes significant financing component, the Group determines the transaction
price based on assumption that the customer has paid the amount payable by cash when obtaining
the control over the goods or services. The difference between the transaction price and the contract
consideration is amortized within the contract period using effective interest method. At the
inception of the contract, if the Group expects that the time interval between the customer's
obtaining control of a promised goods or service and the customer's payment for that goods or
service will not exceed one year, the Group will not consider the significant financing component
in the contract.
The Group assesses whether it controls each specified good or service before that good or service
is transferred to the customer to determine whether the Group is a principal or an agent. If the Group
controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a customer, the
Group is a principal and recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration received or
receivable. Otherwise, the Group is an agent and recognizes revenue in the amount of any fee or
commission to which it expects to be entitled. The fee or commission is the net amount of
consideration that the Group retains after paying the other party the consideration received in
exchange for the goods or services to be provided by that party, or is determined in accordance with
the established commission amount or percentage, etc.
Where the Group receives receipts in advance from a customer for sales of goods or rendering of
services, the amount is first recognized as a liability and then transferred to revenue when the related
performance obligation has been satisfied. When the Group's receipts in advance are not required
to be refunded and it is probable that the customer will waive all or part of its contractual rights, the
Group recognizes the said amounts as revenue on a pro-rata basis in accordance with the pattern of
exercise of the customer's contractual rights, if the Group expects to be entitled to the amounts
relating to the contractual rights waived by the customer; otherwise, the Group reverses the related
balance of the said liabilities to revenue only when it is highly unlikely that the customer will require
performance of the remaining performance obligations.

28. Contract costs
28.1 Costs of obtaining a contract
For the incremental cost of obtaining the contract (cost that will not incur if the contract is not
obtained) that is expected to be recoverable, it is recognized as an asset, and shall be amortized on
a basis that is consistent with the revenue recognition of the goods or services to which the asset
relates and recognized in profit or loss for the period. If the amortization period of such asset is less
than one year, it is recognized in profit or loss for the period when incurred. Other expenses incurred
for obtaining the contract is included in profit or loss for the period when incurred, except for those
explicitly assumed by the customer.
28.2 Costs to fulfil a contract
If the costs incurred in fulfilling a contract are not within the scope of other standards other than
the revenue standards, the Group shall recognize an asset from the costs incurred to fulfil a contract
only if those costs meet all of the following criteria: (1) the costs relate directly to a contract or to
an anticipated contract that the Group can specifically identify; (2) the costs generate or enhance
resources of the entity that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future; and (3)
the costs are expected to be recovered. The asset mentioned above shall be amortized on a basis that
is consistent with the transfer to the customer of the goods or services to which the asset relates and
recognized in profit or loss for the period.
28.3 Losses of assets related to contract costs
In determining the impairment losses of assets related to contract costs, the Group first determines
impairment losses of other assets related to contracts recognized in accordance with other ASBEs;
then, for assets related to contract costs, if the carrying amount of the assets is higher than the
difference between: (1) the remaining consideration that the Group expects to obtain for the transfer
of the goods or services related to the assets; and (2) the estimated costs to be incurred for the
transfer of the related goods or services, any excess is provided for impairment and recognized as
impairment loss of assets.
After the provision for impairment of assets related to contract costs is made, if factors of
impairment in previous periods change so that the difference between the above two is higher than
the carrying amount of the assets, the original provision for impairment of the assets is reversed and
recognized in profit or loss for the period, provided that the carrying amount of the assets after the
reversal does not exceed the carrying amount of the assets at the date of reversal assuming no
provision for impairment is made.
29. Government grants
Government grants are transfers of monetary assets or non-monetary assets from the government
to the Group at no consideration. A government grant is recognized only when the Group can
comply with conditions attached to the grant and the Group will receive the grant.

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued
29. Government grants - continued
If a government grant takes the form of a monetary asset, it is measured at the amount received or
receivable. If a government grant takes the form of a non-monetary asset, it is measured at fair value.
If the fair value cannot be reliably determined, it is measured at a nominal amount. A government
grant measured at a nominal amount is recognized immediately in profit or loss for the period.
A government grant related to an asset is recognized as deferred income, and evenly amortized to
profit or loss over the useful life of the related asset. A government grant measured at a nominal
amount is recognized immediately in profit or loss for the period. Where the related asset is sold,
transferred, scrapped or damaged prior to the end of its useful life, the related undistributed deferred
income is transferred to the profit or loss for the disposal period.
For a government grant related to income, if the grant is a compensation for related expenses or
losses to be incurred in subsequent periods, the grant is recognized as deferred income and
recognized in profit or loss over the periods in which the related costs or losses are recognized; if
the grant is a compensation for related expenses or losses already incurred, the grant is recognized
immediately in profit or loss.
For government grants both related to assets and income, different parts are distinguished for
different accounting treatments; if it is difficult to distinguish, they should be classified as
government grants related to income as a whole.
A government grant related to the Group's daily activities is recognized in other income based on
the nature of economic activities; a government grant not related to the Group's daily activities is
recognized in non-operating income.
30. Income tax
The income tax expenses include current income tax and deferred income tax.
30.1 Current income tax
At the balance sheet date, current income tax liabilities (or assets) for the current and prior periods
are measured at the amount expected to be paid (or recovered) according to the requirements of tax
laws.
30.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities
For temporary differences between the carrying amounts of certain assets or liabilities and their tax
base, or between the carrying amount of those items that are not recognized as assets or liabilities
and their tax base that can be determined according to tax laws, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized using the balance sheet liability method.

30. Deferred tax assets/ deferred tax liabilities - continued
30.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities - continued
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax
assets for deductible temporary differences are recognized to the extent that it is probable that
taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
However, for temporary differences associated with the initial recognition of goodwill and the
initial recognition of an asset or liability arising from a transaction, which is not a business
combination that affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profits (or deductible losses) at
the time of transaction, no deferred tax asset or liability is recognized.
For deductible losses and tax credits that can be carried forward, deferred tax assets are recognized
to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the
deductible losses and tax credits can be utilized.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with
investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control
the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference
will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary
differences associated with such investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are only
recognized to the extent that future taxable profits will be available against which the deductible
temporary differences can be utilized and they are expected to be reversed in the foreseeable future.
At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates applicable
in the period in which the related assets are recovered or the related liabilities are settled according
to tax laws.
Current and deferred tax expenses or income are recognized in profit or loss for the period, except
when they arise from transactions or events that are directly recognized in other comprehensive
income or in shareholders' equity, in which case they are recognized in other comprehensive income
or in shareholders' equity, and when they arise from business combinations, in which case they
adjust the carrying amount of goodwill.
At the balance sheet date, the carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed and reduced if it
is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available in the future to allow the benefit
of deferred tax assets to be utilized. Any such reduction in amount is reversed when it becomes
probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.
30.3 Income tax offsetting
When the Group has a legal right to settle on a net basis and intends either to settle on a net basis
or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, current tax assets and current tax
liabilities are offset and presented on a net basis.

When the Group has a legal right to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis, and
deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation
authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle
current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and liabilities simultaneously,
in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected
to be reversed, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset and presented on a net basis.
31. Leases
A lease is a contract whereby the lessor conveys to the lessee in return for a consideration the right
to use an asset for an agreed period of time.
For contracts entered into, the Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception
date. Such contract will not be reassessed unless the terms and conditions of the contract are
subsequently changed.
31.1 The Group as Lessee
31.1.1 Separating components of a lease
If a contract contains a lease component and one or more non-lease components, the Group allocates
the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone
price of the lease components and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components.
31.1.2 Right-of-use assets
Except for short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, at the
commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes right-of-use assets. The commencement
date of the lease is the date on which a lessor makes an underlying asset available for use by the
Group. Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost. The cost of the right-of-use assets
comprises:
the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities.
any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives.
any initial direct costs incurred by the Group.
an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying
asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition
required by the terms and conditions of the lease.

31.1 The Group as Lessee - continued
31.1.2 Right-of-use assets - continued
The Group depreciates right-of-use assets by reference to the relevant depreciation provisions of
Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 4 - Fixed Assets. The right-of-use assets are
depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the leased assets where the Group is reasonably
certain to obtain ownership of the underlying assets at the end of the lease term. Otherwise, right-
of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and the remaining useful lives of the
leased assets.
The Group applies Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 8 - Impairment of Assets, to
determine whether the right-of-use assets are impaired and to account for any impairment loss
identified.
31.1.3 Lease liabilities
Except for short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, at the
commencement date of the lease, the Group measures the lease liabilities at the present value of the
lease payments that are not paid at that date. If the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily
determined, the lessee shall use the lessee's incremental borrowing rate.
The lease payments comprise the following payments by the Group for the right to use the
underlying asset during the lease term:
fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives.
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate.
the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option.
payments for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising an option
to terminate the lease.
amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees.
Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, are initially measured using the index or
rate as at the commencement date. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of the
lease liabilities, are recognized in profit or loss, or in the cost of relevant assets, in the period of
those payments.
After the commencement date, interest expenses on the lease liabilities in each period during the
lease term is calculated by a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease
liabilities, and included in profit or loss or charged to cost of related assets.

After the commencement date, if one of the following occurs, the lease liabilities are remeasured
by the Group with the adjustments to the related right-of-use assets. If the carrying amount of the
right-of-use assets is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease
liabilities, the difference should be recognized in profit or loss.
there is a change in the lease term, or in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying
asset, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities, on the basis of the revised lease term and the
revised discount rate.
there is a change in the amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or
in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those
payments, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities, on the basis of the revised lease payments
and the unchanged discount rate, unless the change in the lease payments results from a change
in floating interest rates, in which case a revised discount is applied to the present value.
31.1.4 Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group chooses not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases of
port and terminal facilities, buildings, machinery and equipment, furniture and fixture and other
equipment, motor vehicles and cargo ships, other short-term leases and leases of low-value assets.
A short-term lease is a lease that at the commencement date, has a lease term of 12 months or less
and does not contain a call option. A lease of low-value assets is that, the value of the underlying
asset is less than RMB 50,000 when it is new. The Group shall recognize the lease payments
associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets in profit or loss or cost of related
assets on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
31.1.5 Lease modifications
A lease modification should be accounted for as a separate lease if both of the following apply:
the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more
underlying assets.
the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone
price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price
according to the circumstances of the particular contract.
For a lease medication that is not accounted for as a separate lease, at the effective date of the lease
modification, the Group should allocate the consideration in the modified contract, determine the
lease term of the modified lease and remeasure the lease liability by discounting the revised
payments using a revised discount rate.

For lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease or narrow the term of the lease, the
Group should decrease the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset with any gain or loss relating
to the partial or full termination of the lease should be recognized in profit or loss. For
remeasurement of lease liabilities from all other lease modifications, a corresponding adjustment is
made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset.
31.2 The Group as Lessor
31.2.1 Separating components of a lease
Where a contract contains both lease components and non-lease components, the Group shall
apportion the contract consideration in accordance with the provisions of the revenue standards on
the apportionment of the transaction price, based on the respective individual prices of the lease
components and the non-lease components.
31.2.2 Classification of leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the
risks and rewards of ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
31.2.2.1 The Group as lessor under operating leases
The Group recognizes lease receipts from operating leases as rental income the straight-line method
over the respective periods of the lease term. The Group capitalizes initial direct costs incurred in
connection with operating leases and apportions those costs profit or loss for the period as an
expense over the lease term on the same basis as the recognition of lease income.
Variable lease receipts acquired by the Group in connection with operating leases that are not
included in the lease receipts are recognized in profit or loss when incurred.
31.2.2.2 The Group as lessor under finance leases
At the commencement date, the Group recognizes a finance lease receivable at the amount equal to
the net lease investment with assets under finance leases derecognized. The net lease investment is
the sum of any unguaranteed residual value and the present value of the lease receipts over the lease
term discounted at the interest rate implicit in lease.

fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) paid by the lessee, less any lease
incentives.
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate.
the exercise price of a purchase option, provided that it is reasonably determined that the
lessee will exercise the option.
payments for terminating the lease option, provided that the lease term reflects that the lessee
will exercise the option to terminate the lease.
residual value of the guarantee provided to the Group by the lessee, a party related to the
lessee and an independent third party with the financial ability to fulfil guaranteed obligations.
Variable payments receivable not included in the net investment in the lease are recognized in profit
or loss when they arise.
Interest income for each period over the lease term is calculated and recognized by the Group at a
fixed periodic rate.
31.2.3 Subleases
As a lessor of the sublease, the Group accounts for the original lease contract and the sublease
contract as two separate contracts. The Group classifies the subleases based on the right-of-use
assets generating from the original lease rather than the underlying assets of the original lease.
31.2.4 Lease modifications
The Group accounts for a modification to an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date
of the modification, considering any lease advances or receivables relating to the original lease as
the lease receipts for the new lease.
The Group should account for the modification to a finance lease as a separate lease if both of the
followings are satisfied:
The modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more
underlying assets; and
The consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone
price for the increase in scope with any appropriate adjustment to that stand-alone price.

For a modification to a finance lease that is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Group should
account for the modification as follows:
If the lease would have been classified as an operating lease had the modification been effect
at the inception date, the Group should account for the lease modification as a new lease from
the effective date of the modification, and measure the carrying amount of the underlying
asset as the net investment in the lease before the effective date of the lease modification.
If the lease would have been classified as a finance lease had the modification been in effect
at the inception date, the Group should apply the requirements of contract modification and
renegotiation under the ASBE No. 22.
31.2.5 Sale and leaseback transactions
31.2.5.1 The Group as the seller-lessee
The Group assesses and determines whether the transfer of an asset in a sale and leaseback
transaction constitutes a sale according to the requirements of revenue standards. If the transfer of
an asset does not constitute a sale, the Group should continue to recognize the transferred asset and
should recognize a financial liability at an amount equal to the transfer proceeds applying the ASBE
No. 22 . If the transfer of an asset is a sale, the Group should measure the right-of-use asset arising
from the leaseback at the proportion of the original carrying amount of the asset that relates to the
right of use, and recognize only any gain or loss that relates to the rights transferred to the lessor.
31.2.5.2 The Group as the buyer-lessor
If the transfer of an asset in a sale and leaseback transaction does not constitutes a sale, the Group
does not recognize the transferred asset, but a financial asset at an amount equal to the transfer
proceeds, and accounts for such financial asset under the ASBE No. 22. If the transfer of an asset
constitutes a sale, the Group accounts for the purchase of the asset in accordance with other
applicable ASBEs and accounts for the lease of the asset.
32. Exchange of Non-Monetary Assets
When a non-monetary assets transaction has commercial substance and the fair value of the assets
received or surrendered can be measured reliably. For assets received, the fair value of the assets
surrendered and relevant payable taxes shall be regarded as the transaction cost of the assets
received at initial recognition. For assets surrendered, the difference between the fair value and the
carrying value of the asset surrendered shall be recognized in profit or loss for the period. When
there is clear evidence indicating that the fair value of the assets received is more reliable, the cost
of assets received and surrendered shall be calculated in different ways. For the assets received, the
fair value of the asset received and related taxes payable are recognized as the cost at initial
recognition. For the assets surrendered, at derecognition, the difference between the fair value of
the assets received and the carrying amount of the assets surrendered shall be recognized in profit
or loss for the period.

the assets surrendered, at derecognition, no profit or loss is recognized.
33. Discontinued Operation
A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that can be clearly distinguished, either has
been disposed of or is classified as held for sale, and meets one of the following conditions:
(1) Such component represents a separate major line of business or geographic area of
operations.
(2) Such component is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of
business or geographic area of operations.
(3) Such component is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.
Gains or losses from discontinued operations are presented separately from those from continuing
operations in the income statement. Operating gains or losses such as impairment losses from
discontinued operations and the amount of reversals, and the gains or losses from disposals are
presented as discontinued operations. For discontinued operations presented in the current period,
the Group restates the information previously presented as gains or losses from continuing
operations in the financial statements for the period as discontinued operations in the comparable
accounting period.
34. Safety production cost
According to the Administrative Measures for the Collection and Utilization of Enterprise Work
Safety Funds (Cai Zi [2022] No. 136) jointly issued by the Ministry of Finance and the Emergency
Department on 13 December 2022, safety production cost set aside by the Group is directly included
in the cost of relevant products or recognized in profit or loss for the period, and transferred to the
special reserve simultaneously. When safety production cost set aside is utilized, if the costs
incurred can be categorized as expenditure, the costs incurred should be charged against the special
reserve. If the costs set aside are used to build up fixed assets, the costs should be charged to
construction in progress, and reclassified to fixed assets when the safety projects are ready for
intended use. Meantime, expenditures in building up fixed assets are directly charged against the
special reserve with the accumulated depreciation recognized at the same amount. Depreciation will
not be made in the future period on such fixed assets.
35. Share-based payments
A share-based payment is a transaction which the Group grants equity instruments, in return for
services rendered by employees or other parties. The Group's share-based payments include equity-
settled share-based payments.

best estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest; as related costs or expenses at
the grant date, if the equity instruments vest immediately, with a corresponding increase in capital
reserves.
(V) CRITICAL JUDGMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND KEY
ASSUMPTIONS AND UNCERTAINTIES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
In the application of accounting policies and accounting estimates as set out in Note (IV), the Group
is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of items in
the financial statements that cannot be measured accurately, due to the internal uncertainty of the
operating activities. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are based on historical
experiences of the Group's management as well as other factors that are considered to be relevant.
Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The Group regularly reviews the judgments, estimates and assumptions on a going concern basis.
Changes in accounting estimates which only affect the current period should be recognized in
current period; changes which not only affect the current but the future periods should be recognized
in current and future periods. At the balance sheet date, key assumptions and uncertainties in critical
judgments and accounting estimates that are likely to lead to significant adjustments to the book
values of assets and liabilities in the future are:
Goodwill impairment
For the purpose of impairment testing, the present value of the expected future cash flows of the
assets group or portfolio including goodwill shall be calculated, and such expected future cash flows
shall be estimated. Meantime, a pre-tax rate shall be determined that should reflect the time value
of money on the current market and the specific interest risks.
Recognition of deferred income tax
The Group calculates and makes provision for deferred tax liabilities according to the profit
distribution plan of subsidiaries, associates and the joint ventures subject to the related law. For
retained earnings which are not allocated by the investment company, since the profits will be used
to invest the company's daily operation and future development, no deferred tax liabilities are
recognized. If the actually distributed profits in the future are more or less than those expected,
corresponding deferred tax liabilities will be recognized or reversed at the earlier of the date on
which the profit distribution plan is changed and the date on which the profit distribution is declared,
in profit and loss for the period.

ASSUMPTIONS AND UNCERTAINTIES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued
Recognition of deferred income tax - continued
Deferred tax assets are recognized based on the deductible temporary difference and the
corresponding tax rate, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. If the actual taxable income in
the future is more or less than that expected, corresponding deferred tax assets will be recognized
or reversed in profit or loss for the period in which they are actually incurred.
Estimated useful lives and residual values of fixed assets and intangible assets
The Group assesses the estimated useful lives and residual values of its fixed assets and intangible
assets. Such assessment is made by reference to the historical experience of actual useful lives and
residual values of fixed assets and intangible assets of a similar nature and function, and may subject
to significant changes due to technical innovation and fierce industry competition. Where the
estimated useful lives and residual values of fixed assets and intangible assets are less than the
previous estimates, the Group will increase the depreciation and amortization, or write off or
eliminate the technically obsolete fixed assets or intangible assets.
(VI) CHANGES IN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING
ESTIMATES
1. Changes in significant accounting policies and their effects
1.1 Interpretation No. 16 of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises
The Interpretation No. 16 of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises (the "Interpretation
No. 16") was issued by the Ministry of Finance on 30 November 2022, which stipulated the
accounting treatment concerning the exemption of initial recognition of deferred income tax relating
to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction.
The Interpretation No. 16 revised the coverage of exemption of the initial recognition of deferred
income tax in the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 18 - Income Tax, and specified
that the relevant provisions on the exemption of initial recognition of deferred tax liabilities and
deferred tax assets are not applicable to a single transaction (not a business combination) that affects
neither the accounting profit nor taxable income (or deductible losses) at the time of transaction,
and where the assets and liabilities initially recognized generate equal taxable temporary differences
and deductible temporary differences. The Interpretation became effective from 1 January 2023 and
could be early applied. The Group early applied the Interpretation in the current year, and accounted
for the single transactions retrospectively that occurred between the beginning of the earliest
presentation period of the financial statements and 31 December 2022, and restated the comparative
financial statements. The impact on the relevant items is as follows:

Land use rights (Note) 2,447,228,773.99 2,511,195,386.58
Note: At 30 June 2023, the land use rights without ownership certificates mainly represent the
land use rights for berth and storage yard within Chiwan Port area obtained by the Group
from Nanshan Group, with an area of 815,234.87 m, and the land use rights for Dachan
Bay Port area Phase II obtained by Ansujie Terminals Warehousing Service (Shenzhen) Co.,
Ltd. ("ASJ"), of which the costs are RMB 1,235,852,249.87 and RMB 918,521,317.23,
respectively.
The land use rights for berth and storage yard within Chiwan Port area obtained by the
Group from Nanshan Group represent the capital contribution from Nanshan Group to the
Company upon restructuring of the Company, while the remaining land use rights are
obtained from Nanshan Group by way of long-term lease. Up to date, as Nanshan Group
has not yet obtained the land use rights in respect of the lands within Chiwan watershed,
including aforementioned capital investment and land lease to the Group, therefore the
Group cannot obtain the ownership certificate for relevant land and buildings on such land.
The Company's management understood that the Nanshan Group is negotiating with
relevant government departments regarding the historical issues, and the date when the
Group can obtain the ownership certificate of relevant land and buildings on such land
cannot be estimated reliably.

(4) Impairment test of goodwill and key parameters
When testing the goodwill for impairment, the Group compares the carrying amount of related
assets group and portfolio of assets group (including goodwill) with the recoverable amount. If the
recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, the difference is included in profit or loss for
the period. The Group determines the recoverable amount of the assets group and portfolio of assets
group that generate goodwill at fair value less cost of disposal or at present value of expected future
cash flows. The fair value is determined using market approach. The present value of cash flows is
estimated based on the forecast of cash flows for 5 years to 26 years detailed forecast period and
subsequent forecast period. The estimated future cash flows for the detailed forecast period are
based on the business plan established by the management; the expected future cash flows for the
subsequent forecast period are determined in conjunction with the level of the final year of the
detailed forecast period, combined with the Group's business plans, industry trends and inflation
rates. The growth rate adopted will not exceed the long-term average growth rate of the country
where the assets group and portfolio of assets group are located. The key assumptions used by the
Group in estimating the present value of future cash flows include growth rate and discount rate etc.
The parameters of key assumptions determined by the Group's management are in line with the
Group's historical experience or external source of information.

(3) Description of performance obligations
The Group provides wharf services, bonded logistics services and other services. These services are
obligations satisfied over time. For wharf services, as the handling time for containers and bulk
cargos is short, the management believes that it is an appropriate method to recognize the fulfillment
of performance obligation and revenue upon the completion of the services. For bonded logistics
services and other services, the customers evenly obtain and consume economic benefits from the
Group's performance of contract, meanwhile charging rules as agreed in contract terms usually
adopt daily/month/yearly basis. During the process of rendering services, the Group recognizes
revenue using the straight-line method.
Part of the Group's handling contracts are established with discount terms, i.e. the customers whose
business volume reaches agreed level, are granted with preferential charge rates or discounts. At
the end of the period, as the business quantity finally realized within the contract period is uncertain,
the contract consideration is subject to variable factors. The management includes this part of
discount in other payables and provisions, rather than including it in the transaction prices. At the
end of the period, the variable considerations arising from sales discount are set out in Note (VIII)
33 (3) and Note (VIII) 42.

(XI) RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
1. Currency risk
Currency risk is the risk that losses will occur because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The
Group's exposure to the currency risk is primarily associated with HKD, USD and EUR. Except for
part of the purchases and sales, the Group's other principal activities are denominated and settled in
RMB. As at 30 June 2023, the balance of the Group's assets and liabilities are both denominated in
functional currency or the currency that has pegged exchange rate against the functional currency,
except that the assets and liabilities set out below are recorded using the currency that is neither
functional currency nor currency that has pegged exchange rate against the functional currency.
Currency risk arising from the foreign currency balance of assets and liabilities may have impact
on the Group's performance.

Long-term borrowings 4,658,000,000.00 3,669,000,000.00
The Group closely monitors the effects of changes in the foreign exchange rates on the Group's
currency risk exposures. According to the current risk exposure and judgment on the exchange rate
movements, management considers it is unlikely that the exchange rate changes in the future one
year will result in significant loss to the Group.
Sensitivity analysis on currency risk
The assumption for the sensitivity analysis on currency risk is that all the cash flow hedges and
hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation are highly effective. On the basis of the above
assumption, where all other variables are held constant, the reasonably possible changes in the
foreign exchange rate may have the following pre-tax effect on the profit or loss for the period and
shareholders' equity:

(Unless otherwise specified, the monetary unit shall be RMB.)
(XI) RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - continued
2. Interest rate risk - changes in cash flows
Risk of changes in cash flows of financial instruments arising from interest rate changes is mainly
related to bank loans with floating interest rate. (See Note (VIII) 26 and Note (VIII) 37). The Group
continuously and closely monitors the impact of interest rate changes on the Group's interest rate
risk. The Group's policy is to maintain these borrowings at floating rates. Presently, the Group has
no arrangement such as interest rate swaps etc.
Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk
Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk is based on the following assumptions:
Fluctuations of market interest rate can affect the interest income or expense of a financial
instrument with floating interest rate;
For a financial instrument at fair value with fixed interest rate, the fluctuations of market interest rate
can only affect its interest income or expense;
For a derivative financial instrument designated as hedging instrument, the fluctuations of market
interest rate affects its fair value, and all interest rate hedging are expected to be highly effective;
The changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments and other financial assets and liabilities
are calculated using cash flow discounting method by applying the market interest rate at balance
sheet date.
On the basis of above assumptions, where the other variables held constant, the pre-tax effect of
possible and reasonable changes in interest rate on the profit or loss for the period and shareholders'
equity are as follows:

3. Liquidity risk
In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash
equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group's operations and mitigate
the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The management monitors the utilization of bank
borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.
As at 30 June 2023, the Group had total current liabilities in excess of total current assets of RMB
1,400,548,100.60. At 30 June 2023, the Group had available and unused line of credit and bonds
amounting to RMB 67,024,496,484.81, which is greater than the balance of the net current liabilities,
and may obtain fund support within the line of credit and bonds as necessary. Therefore, the Group's
management believes that the Group has no significant liquidity risk.
