Industry Overview of the Company during the Reporting Period The Company shall comply with the disclosure requirements set out in “Rubber and Plastic Products Manufacturing” under “Chemical Industry Related Business” in the Self-Disciplinary Regulatory Guidelines for Companies Listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange No. 3 – Industry Information Disclosure. 1. Industry conditions and the industry position of the Company In 2023, with increasing global attention on green, low-carbon, and sustainable development, more than 150 countries set ambitious goals for carbon neutrality. At the United Nations Climate Change Conference, nearly 200 countries reached a milestone agreement - "UAE Consensus", marking the first consensus in nearly three decades on transitioning the energy system from fossil fuels to clean energy. In view of the strong growth momentum of global new energy vehicle market, countries intensified efforts to promote the development of the new energy industry centered around lithium battery technology. Guided by China's national strategic goals of carbon neutrality and carbon peaking, the new energy vehicle and energy storage industries will continue to maintain the rapid development momentum. As one of the four key materials of lithium batteries, lithium battery separators are widely used in electric vehicles, consumer electronics, energy storage batteries, and other fields, playing a pivotal role in driving the development of China's and even global new energy industries. As a leading company in the lithium battery separator industry, the Company not only possesses significant competitiveness in global production capacity, product quality, cost-effectiveness, and technological research and development, but also has successfully integrated into the supply chain systems of the vast majority of mainstream lithium battery manufacturers worldwide. Our products cover the three major fields of power, consumer electronics, and energy storage, with abundant application scenarios. In 2023, the Company maintained its leading position in the industry, with both production capacity and shipment volume of separator products ranking first in the industry. 2. Industry development trends The rapid development of the global new energy vehicle industry and energy storage market, along with the continuous expansion of the lithium battery industry market, has brought vast market potential and historic development opportunities for the lithium battery separator industry. According to the China Lithium-ion Battery Separator Industry Development White Paper (2024) released by research institution EV Tank in collaboration with China YiWei Institute of Economics, the shipment volume of lithium-ion battery separators in China increased by 32.8% year- on-year in 2023, reaching 17.69 billion square meters. Specifically, the shipment volume of wet-process separators reached 12.94 billion square meters, while that of dry-process separators reached 4.75 billion square meters. EV Tank stated in the white paper that the global shipment volume of lithium-ion battery separators exceeded 21 billion square meters in 2023, and the global share of shipments from Chinese separator companies had surpassed 83% in the same year. (1) The separator industry has vast market potential and high production capacity requirements From a global perspective, China has taken the lead in the development of electric vehicles, while overseas regions such as Europe and America are rapidly catching up. Given the enormous growth potential of overseas new energy vehicle and lithium battery markets, the Gaogong Industry Institute (GGII) predicts that global lithium battery shipments will exceed 4TWh by 2030. The penetration rate of new energy vehicles in overseas markets is still lower compared to domestic markets; therefore, the growth rate of overseas markets is expected to surpass that of domestic markets in the future. As an indispensable key raw material in lithium battery manufacturing, the stable and reliable production capacity and product quality of lithium battery separators is crucial for separator companies to undertake large-scale orders from downstream customers. Leveraging their production capacity, product and technology R&D advantages, separator manufacturers can continuously deepen cooperation with core customers, thereby helping them to further expand market share and enhance market influence. (2) The importance of enhancing research and development innovation capabilities and optimizing product and customer structures become more prominent Lithium batteries are the core components of new energy vehicles. As the market gradually transitions from policy-oriented to market-driven, manufacturers have increasingly stringent requirements for key performance attributes of lithium batteries, such as safety, range capacity, and lifespan. The continuous advancement of lithium battery technology imposes higher requirements on the performance improvement and technological iteration of separator products. Therefore, separator companies that possess core technologies and independent R&D and innovation capabilities will have better development prospects and potential. Since the beginning of 2023, the competition in the separator industry has become increasingly fierce, and optimizing product and customer structures has become one of the trends in the development of separator companies. Coating inorganic ceramic materials, PVDF, aramid, and other materials on the base film can effectively enhance the puncture resistance and heat resistance of lithium battery separators, improving the safety and lifespan of batteries. Compared with base films, coated films are better able to meet the key performance requirements of lithium batteries for separators, offering higher product added value. Therefore, separator companies that possess the core technology of high-quality coated films have better development prospects, and increasing the shipment volume of coated films helps enhance the comprehensive profitability. Meanwhile, separator companies need to continuously develop new products to ensure that they possess new production capabilities. In terms of specific product features, improving the heat resistance, mechanical strength, and other performance aspects of separator products to meet the safety and lifespan requirements of lithium batteries, while meeting the demand for slimming to enhance the energy density and range of lithium batteries, 11 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report remains a trend in separator product development. In terms of optimizing customer structure, we must ramp up efforts in the maintenance and development of key customers while in exploring overseas markets and accelerating global outreach. In addition, the Company has diverse product lines in multiple product segments such as BOPP film, aseptic packaging, and aluminum-plastic film. After approximately 30 years of steady development of the BOPP film industry in China, the technology has become increasingly mature, while the market competition has also become fiercer. In the future, the development direction of the industry will focus more on manufacturing differentiated products that meet customer demands, such as cigarette pack wrapping film and laser film. These products will be widely used in packaging segments such as cigarettes and food, which have enormous market potential. With the continuous expansion of the terminal market, the BOPP film industry will also be poised for new growth opportunities. In recent years, China's aseptic packaging market has gradually established a product system with mature technology and diverse product types, capable of meeting the needs of aseptic filling of various liquids. The primary application areas of aseptic packaging are concentrated in the food and beverage industries such as liquid dairy products and non-carbonated beverages. With the continuous prosperity of the domestic economy and the increase in urban residents' income, consumer mindset and health awareness have gradually improved, leading to a rapid growth momentum in the consumption of dairy products and non-carbonated beverages. At the same time, the increasing attention from both the government and consumers on food safety has led to stricter requirements for packaging materials, especially aseptic packaging materials, resulting in rising demands. Although international packaging giants still dominate the market due to their first-mover advantage, with the continuous progress of domestic material technology and production technology, the domestic aseptic packaging market is poised for rapid growth opportunities. Looking ahead, leveraging cost-effectiveness advantages, domestic manufacturers are expected to gradually expand their products from the mid-to-low-end market to the high-end aseptic packaging market. As a result, the market share of domestic aseptic packaging manufacturers is expected to gradually increase. Aluminum laminated film, as a crucial encapsulation material for pouch cells, represents one of the most technically challenging aspects in the pouch cell industry chain, exerting significant influence on the quality of pouch cells. Compared to cylindrical and prismatic batteries, pouch batteries demonstrate evident advantages in energy density, cycle life, safety, and flexibility. In the realm of consumer electronics which seeks high-capacity and lightweight, pouch cells have become the mainstream choice, with their penetration rate surpassing 80% in mobile phones and laptops, and approaching saturation in tablet batteries. In the field of traction batteries, the European and American new energy vehicle markets show a strong preference for pouch power batteries. With continuous advancements in battery technology and declining costs, the competitiveness of pouch batteries is gradually improving. An increasing number of automotive manufacturers are opting for pouch cells as the power source for new energy vehicles, further driving the growth of pouch cell shipments.

I. Initial Public Offering 1. The “reconstruction and expansion project of high-grade environment-friendly special paper with an additional annual output of 13,000 tons” was planned by the Company based on the market situation and the Company’s production capacity before listing. As time goes by, the market has changed dramatically. Since 2016, the procurement mode of downstream tobacco manufacturers for special paper products has been adjusted from quantity allocation by cigarette manufacturers to the independent procurement mode through centralized bidding or commercial negotiation by cigarette label printing enterprises. Cigarette-related enterprises can expand their bargaining range from region to the entire country by means of tendering or commercial negotiation through public market inquiry and bargaining by themselves, breaking the original competitive landscape featuring fixed share and region. As a result, special paper manufacturers took active competition strategies like price cuts to snap up orders, and the industry pattern changed. As a result of the above industrial policy adjustments, the special paper industry has formed a new pattern featuring full market competition, with intensified market competition and Significant changes in the feasibility of a sharp decline in prices. If the project went on as scheduled, we may face risks that the utilization rate of raised funds may decline and the expected investment objective may the projects not be achieved. Therefore, the Company terminated the implementation of this project in 2019. 2.

Risks the Company may face (1) National regulatory risk relating to lithium battery separator business In recent years, various countries have intensively introduced industry policies to support the development of new energy vehicle industry. Benefiting from policy support, the production value of new energy vehicle industry rapidly increased, driving the rapid development of the upstream lithium battery industry. If there are significant adverse changes in carbon emissions, renewable energy application and other relevant industry policies in the future, the relevant policies may have a negative impact on the development of the whole industry chain of new energy vehicle, thus having an adverse impact on the upstream lithium battery separator industry and the Company’s operation result. Countermeasures: By actively investing in the R&D of new applications of film, the Company will explore its new commercial application market. At the same time, the Company also invests resources to distribute new product projects to diversify business risks and reduce the impact of policy fluctuations on the Company to a certain extent. (2) Intensified market competition risk The rapid growth of the new energy vehicle industry has driven the development of lithium battery separator in the upstream part, and the lithium battery separator industry has attracted many domestic enterprises due to its higher gross margin, with a lot of funds invested in it, increasing its capacity rapidly. Currently, the domestic competition in this segment is becoming increasingly fierce. The increasingly fierce competition will have an adverse impact on the results of the Company if it can’t deeply understand the law of industrial development and make constant efforts for technological innovation and operational management improvement to improve product quality and reduce production costs. Countermeasures: The Company’s lithium-ion battery film business has formed industry leading advantages in production capacity, R&D capacity, product quality, lean management, customer and market and other aspects. The Company will continue to reduce costs and increase efficiency, improve the product quality and reduce the production costs through technological innovation, boost profitability through R&D innovation, and develop diversified customer groups in domestic and overseas markets to reduce the impact of domestic and foreign market fluctuations on the Company’s performance. (3) Risk of price fluctuation of major raw materials The major raw materials used by the Company are subjected to price fluctuation to some extent, especially polypropylene and polyethylene, whose prices are affected by the strong fluctuations of the international crude oil price. The results of the Company may be adversely affected by the gross profit margin which may be affected to some extent if the prices of major raw materials fluctuate sharply due to the macroeconomic fluctuations, the demand and supply relation for enterprises in the upstream and downstream parts and other factors. Countermeasures: The Company has established long-term and stable cooperative relations with major suppliers, established a strategic purchase system as a whole, and improved the bargaining power and reduced the cost of raw materials by means of large-scale purchase. The Company will also reduce the proportion of raw material cost in production cost through technological innovation, process equipment process transformation, production efficiency improvement and loss reduction. (4) Risk relating to construction in progress Current construction in progress includes Chongqing Energy (phase II), Jiangsu Energy, Hubei Energy, Yuxi Energy, Jiangsu Ruijie and US Energy and other production bases, which require a large amount of capital. If the Company fails to raise funds in time, complete and put into operation on schedule, it will have a negative impact on the subsequent production and operation and future profits. Countermeasures: The Company has raised RMB7.5 billion through non-public issuance of A shares to fund the construction of related projects. Additionally, the Company made reasonable arrangements for future investment plans (including funds) by increasing cooperation with financial institutions, and improving bank credit lines. (5) Risk of technical loss and loss of core personnel An enterprise engaging in lithium battery separator requires advanced technology and process, rich management experience and deep understanding of the industry. To ensure the ability of constant innovation and the steady growth of business, the Company should have teams consisting of steady high-quality employees in scientific research, management and sale. The Company constantly improves the mechanisms for talent cultivation, incentive, promotion and restriction, but there is still the possibility of the outflow of core employees from the Company. In case of leakage of the core technology or the departure of core employees, the production and operation of the Company may be adversely affected. Countermeasures: The Company has implemented equity incentive to the core employees, so that the employees can share the value of the growth of the enterprise, but also make the interests of the Company and the interests of employees deeply tied. The Company will continue to increase the introduction and training of core technical personnel, further maintain the stability of core employees, continue to maintain the company’s industry-leading technical level. (6) Technological progress and product substitution risk Lithium-ion battery is mainly used for mobile phones, computers, new energy vehicles, power station for energy storage and other industries. After development for many years, lithium-ion batteries have been superior to traditional storage batteries such as nickel-cadmium batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, lead-acid batteries in terms of volumetric specific energy, gravimetric specific energy, gravimetric specific power, cycle life, charge/discharge efficiency, etc., becoming a new energy industry with priority support and key development from national governments. Although the lithium-ion battery is the first choice for electronic products and pure electric vehicles, and it will take quite a long time to commercialize other emerging batteries such as all-solid-state batteries which are immature technically, the market demands for lithium-ion 41 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report batteries will be affected when emerging batteries such as all-solid-state batteries break the technical bottleneck, achieve mass production and are fully commercialized, and the lithium battery separator in the industry chain will also be affected adversely. Countermeasures: After years of R&D investment and technology accumulation, the Company has strong research on new products and prospective technology reserves. The R&D Department of the Company continues to pay attention to the market development trend, and organizes a discussion group on film technology development, develops project development plans for R&D, and actively develops other new products and technologies of functional film. In addition, the Company strengthens strategic cooperation with well-known lithium-ion battery manufacturers at home and abroad, develops products together with customers in-depth cooperation, timely grasps the technical development trend and complies with the market demand. (7) Risk of exchange rate fluctuation The export sales volume of the Company increases constantly as the Company expands its business scale and gradually strengthens the development in the international market. If the RMB exchange rate and the foreign exchange rate in the countries where our products were sold fluctuate sharply in the future, the results of the Company may be affected to some extent. Countermeasures: The Company will minimize the exchange risk with such measures as closely watching the exchange rate, adjusting the product prices in time based on the exchange rate to guarantee the product profit, strengthening cost control and conducting the foreign exchange derivatives trading for the purpose of hedging. (8) Risks arising from changes in the international business and trade environment The international business and trade environment landscape is fraught with such as fluctuations ranging from shifts in the global economic climate to policy adjustments. Nevertheless, the Company's globalization strategy remains paramount. However, amidst escalating international competition and the backdrop of countries like the United States, major regions represented by Europe and America are progressively introducing policies to support the development of domestic manufacturing industries. Failing to swiftly align with these policies and execute our globalization agenda could potentially impede the Company's market penetration and overall performance. Countermeasures: While paying close attention to the relevant policies of Europe and America, the Company will continuously pay attention to the R&D efforts and technical improvement of products of various business systems, improve product quality and production efficiency, constantly consolidate and strengthen its competitive advantages in technological R&D, capacity scale, product quality, cost efficiency and other aspects, and reduce costs and increase efficiency on the premise of ensuring product quality. We will also continuously expand market development in domestic and overseas regions and actively establish stable cooperative relations with global customers. (9) Management risk after expansion of business scale With the development of the Company’s business, the scale of the Company’s assets and business will be further expanded, which raises higher requirements for the management level of the Company. The management risk arises if the capabilities of the Company to manage the production, sales, quality control and risks can’t meet the requirements for scale expansion, and the systems for talent cultivation, organization pattern and management are not further improved. Countermeasures: The Company will continuously improve the management system, ensure the efficient operation of production, quality control, sales, management and other business links, establish an effective incentive system, attract talents through the Company's broad development platform and effective incentive systems, strengthen talent training and deliver talents for the Company's development through targeted training and training measures for employees and managers at all levels.

and Control of Environmental Pollution by Solid Waste, and other laws and regulations on the prevention and control of environmental pollution. We have formulated the Compilation of Environmental and Hazardous Waste Management Policies, the Management Regulations of Solid Waste, Waste Gas, Waste Water and Noise and other relevant policies. The Safety and Environmental Protection Department of each company conducts internal supervision, management and feedback on the discharge of exhaust gas, wastewater and waste based on the standards set by local environmental protection authorities. Meanwhile, we regularly appoint external inspection units and accept external inspections from time to time to ensure that our emissions meet the relevant standards. 1. Exhaust Gas Emission Management The Group strictly abides by the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Atmospheric Pollution, the Action Plan of Yunnan Province on the Prevention and Control of Atmospheric Pollution and other national and local laws and regulations on exhaust gas emission management, and adheres to standards on emissions. The exhaust gas generated by the Group mainly comes from workshop exhaust gas and boiler exhaust gas, including VOCs (volatile organic compounds) emissions and nitrogen oxide emissions, among which VOCs mainly come from workshop exhaust gas. The Group has formulated relevant exhaust gas management policies, including the Exhaust Gas Emission Management Policy, the Exhaust Gas Absorption System Operating Procedures, etc., and strictly implements them. The Group continues to invest in waste gas recovery and treatment devices to reduce emissions. It has set up treatment facilities such as plasma purifiers, oil smoke purification devices and two-stage activated carbon adsorption devices in the workshops. Jiangxi Ruijie adopts regenerative thermal oxidizers (“RTO”) to recover waste heat while treating waste gas. We require that the exhaust gas absorption facilities and exhaust gas treatment systems of each workshop must operate normally, and we carry out regular repair and maintenance of related equipment. We have set up monitoring instruments in the workshops, which will alert employees to evacuate once the preset concentration is exceeded. The VOCs exhaust gas online monitoring system has also been put into operation in certain plants, and will become available in additional areas in the future, so that we will gradually achieve real- time monitoring of emission concentration. In addition, each base of the Group has dedicated personnel who are responsible for safety and environmental protection work and regularly conduct on-site supervision and inspection to check whether emissions, such as exhaust gas and wastewater emissions, are compliant with the relevant standards and regulations. In accordance with the requirements of relevant national laws and regulations, we have also engaged qualified third parties to conduct regular and ongoing monitoring of various indicators of exhaust emissions. 2. Wastewater Discharge Management The Company strictly complies with the Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Water Pollution, the Work Plan of Yunnan Province on the Prevention and Control of Water Pollution and other national and local laws and regulations on wastewater discharge management, and adheres to standards on emissions. The Group has formulated the Wastewater Discharge Management Policy and strictly implements them. Wastewater discharged by the Group includes production wastewater and domestic wastewater. Production wastewater is treated by sewage treatment facilities, such as MBR separator, anaerobic pool and grid sedimentation pool, in compliance with the relevant regulations based on the production practices in each region where we operate, and then reused or discharged into the municipal sewage pipe network. For domestic sewage, the Company’s plants are all equipped with facilities to treat and regularly monitor domestic sewage. Take Shanghai Energy in the new energy segment as an example. There is a sewage treatment station in Shanghai Energy, and the wastewater is discharged to the municipal pipe network after primary precipitation, secondary precipitation, and filtration treatment. We conduct strict and effective internal monitoring on the compliance of wastewater discharge: firstly, the relevant personnel manually carry out inspections on a daily basis; secondly, we engage a third party to check and issue reports on a monthly basis; and thirdly, the Group conducts random inspections on a quarterly basis. In the packaging segment, Chengdu Hongta Plastic has no production wastewater, and its domestic wastewater is discharged to four wastewater pre-treatment tanks (septic tanks) via sewage pipe network before being discharged to the wastewater treatment plant in the local park via the said network. Hongchuang Packaging has wastewater treatment equipment, and its domestic wastewater is directly used for watering greenery and plants in the company after being treated and reaching the prescribed standard. 3. Waste management 67 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report The Company strictly abides by the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Solid Waste Pollution, the Implementation Plan of Yunnan Province on Solid Waste Pollution Control and other national and local laws and regulations on waste management, and adheres to emission and disposal standards. We have formulated relevant management policies such as the General Solid Waste Management Policy, the Hazardous Waste Management Policy, the Hazardous Waste Pollution Prevention and Control Responsibility Policy, the Hazardous Waste Transfer Policy, the Hazardous Waste Storage Facilities Management Policy, and the Solid Waste Management Rules, among others, and strictly enforce them. During the production and research and development process, the Group generates certain types and a small number of hazardous wastes and non-hazardous wastes. We classify and collect waste in accordance with regulations, store and classify waste in separate areas. Among them, all hazardous wastes are handled by qualified third parties after they are taken away from the plants. We carefully confirm their relevant qualifications when signing contracts with third-party processing agencies and regularly learn about their actual treatment methods for the Group’s wastes. Hazardous wastes include waste activated carbon, waste ink solvents and waste engine oil as well as heat transfer oil, laboratory wastes, biochemical pond sludge and other wastes. Waste activated carbon, waste ink solvents, waste engine oil, heat transfer oil and laboratory wastes are usually stored in separate hazardous waste warehouses and disposed of two to three times a year. Among non-hazardous wastes, paper and plastic bottles are recycled through the recycling bins set up in the Group, and domestic waste is handled by the sanitation department. The Company actively carries out technology innovation to reduce the emissions of hazardous wastes and other harmful wastes. We have substituted alcohol-based inks for grease-based inks, and intend to further replace such grease-based inks with water-based inks wherever feasible in the application scenarios. Each plant strictly follows the regulations on garbage sorting and disposal, separates food waste generated in the canteens from other wastes and dumps such waste individually, and explains garbage sorting on the bulletin boards in the workplaces to help employees have a clearer understanding of garbage sorting methods. Contingency plans for environmental emergencies In order to effectively respond to security risks arising from emergencies, each company has formulated comprehensive and special contingency plans such as the Contingency Plan for Fire Accidents, the Contingency Plan for Environmental Emergencies, the Contingency Plan for Production Safety Accidents, the Contingency Plan for Crane Accidents and Injuries, and the Special Contingency Plan for Natural Gas Leakage, and regularly organizes drills for its employees, so as to ensure the effective deployment of its contingency plans. Environmental self-monitoring plan The Company and its subsidiaries have developed self-monitoring plans in accordance with the requirements of relevant laws and regulations, installed automatic testing facilities in strict accordance with the plans, and regularly conduct or entrust qualified third parties to organize self- monitoring of pollutants such as discharged exhaust gas, wastewater, and noise. Investment in environmental governance and protection and payment of environmental protection tax During the Reporting Period, the Company’s environmental protection expenditure amounted to RMB51,180,000, including investment in environmental protection equipment and pollutant treatment facilities; and it paid RMB865,700 in environmental protection tax. Measures taken to reduce carbon emissions during the Reporting Period and their effects Applicable Not applicable (I) Energy conservation and emission reduction: Integrating requirements such as ISO14001 into the Company’s management system, we set up a top-down management and monitoring system for energy conservation by formulating the Measures for Energy Management and Administrative, Measures for Energy Conversation and Consumption Reduction for Group companies, so that energy conservation implementation and management is centralized in the Operations and Maintenance Department (OMD). A 3-tier system centered on the OMD, business units (workshops) and teams (individual) are thus established to take layered ownership of energy conservation management and each party is responsible for its respective role in the network of energy conservation management. The Operation and Maintenance Department is responsible for guiding, supervising, inspecting and assessing departments’ energy management; setting goals and indicators for energy saving and consumption reduction for the coming year based on the energy consumption in the previous year; establishing energy management targets and responsibility system to ensure target achievement and the compliance and effectiveness of the energy management system; as well as penalizing and rectifying internal breach of the energy management system. Apart from saving energy, reducing consumption, maintaining equipment and reporting exceptions, workshops and manufacturing teams are also working together to organize and conduct energy management promotion, education and training, including focused training and general education targeting energy saving and consumption reduction management and all other employees respectively to enhance the company’s energy consumption and saving standard, and raise employees’ awareness of energy saving, so that they will participate out of their own initiative. In the production process, the Group uses electric energy, natural gas and steam as the main energy sources, and sets specific targets for the 68 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report consumption of energy each year. Since the factory is order-based production, reducing energy consumption is mainly achieved through scientific production scheduling, time optimization, improvement of equipment production efficiency, and improvement of yield rate. We have established energy-saving concepts such as "saving electricity" and "saving gas" in our daily operations. The practices such as reducing standby energy consumption of equipment, not using illegal electrical appliances, air conditioning temperature setting regulations, air circuit pressure checking, and switching off lights when not in use are clarified through the system and reflected in the slogans of the operation site to achieve full staff awareness and work implementation. Case: Suzhou GreenPower carried out energy-saving transformation for process cooling water by using converters to reduce the power consumed by water pumps, and carried out 2TD heat recovery transformation for 7 and 8 lines to reduce the power consumed by heating ovens. In addition, Suzhou GreenPower took multiple measures for 5 and 6 lines, such as condensate recovery and recycling and utilization of high-temperature steam condensate to boilers by using dimethylacetamide (DMAC), to reduce the consumption of natural gas and tap water. It also replaced the damaged insulation cotton of all steam pipelines in the plant, to reduce heat loss and save natural gas. For lines 3-8, rectification feed security filters were installed with recovery pipelines to reduce the loss of dichloromethane from replacement of filter bags. (II) Carbon reduction measures: The Group actively practices economy and implements green office, following the concept of green development and the requirements of green and low carbon, and effectively reduces unreasonable consumption behaviors. We have formulated the Measures for Use of Air Conditioners in Offices and other systems. We actively practice the concept of energy saving and consumption reduction, create a green and environmentally friendly office model, and strive to be a loyal practitioner in the creation of a "resource-saving" society. 1. Reduce office paper consumption: The Group uses OA, ERP and other office systems to effectively reduce the use of paper and uses e-mail instead of printing and photocopying. When using printers or photocopiers, we use recycled paper as much as possible and adopt double-sided printing; we set up three types of paper recycling bins to collect used double-sided paper separately, such as copy paper, old envelopes, letterheads, newspapers, wrapping paper, packaging boxes; we use newspapers as padding in packaging boxes; choose fax machines that can use plain paper instead of fax machines that use thermal fax paper; The Administrative Department sets the print volume on printers based on each department's work requirements, and worked with the IT Department to set black and white printing as default for each department. 2. Reduce energy consumption: The Group advocates carpooling to reduce vehicle gasoline consumption; we set computers to enter sleep mode if the screen is not used for more than five minutes to save electricity; turn off the lights in the meeting room in time, and use natural lighting as much as possible during the day; when purchasing new electrical appliances, while considering the price factor, we try to choose products with high energy efficiency ratio; we control the air conditioner temperature settings in summer and winter to avoid the temperature being too low or too high. 3. Reduce resource consumption: Each department formulates and submits annual and monthly plans to the Administration Department for review, and place procurement orders as planned on a monthly basis. We replace disposable paper cups or plastic bottles with preferred reusable cups; advocate the use of pens with replaceable cores, toner cartridges, rechargeable batteries, and other recyclable items; set up a simple recycling system to recycle glass bottles, aluminum cans; reduce packaging and food waste by reducing the purchase pre-packaging products and reusing shopping bags. Meanwhile, we are also committed to creating low-carbon and environmental-friendly products, and implement the concept in the development, design and production process of the product. Our development strategy aims to integrate green design, green technology & process, green production, green management and green supply chain into the whole life cycle of products through technological innovation and system optimization, on the basis of current function and quality of our products, while minimizing adverse impact on the environment and maximizing the efficiency of resource use, with the ultimate goal to achieve higher economic, ecological and social benefits through improved coordination. 1. Regarding new energy products, the Institute of Recycling and Energy Saving under the Shanghai Energy Research Institute is mainly responsible for the recycle, improvement and reuse of white oil, dichloromethane, DMAC [DMAC: dimethyl acetamide, is an organic solvent used in the coating process.], acetone and clay used in manufacturing of lithium battery separators, as well as the research on the recovery and treatment of wastewater and waste gas by designing effective plans and using advanced separation and recovery equipment to ensure the recovery rate of white oil, dichloromethane, DMAC, acetone and white clay. In addition, we have also improved the recycling rate of wastewater and waste gas to save energy, reduce consumption and contribute to the environmental friendliness of R&D and product design activities. 2. To improve the yield of BOPP film products, and reduce waste film, Hongta Plastics takes measures such as increasing the rewards for online trim scrap recovery and for the team that recovers most trim scraps as an incentive to encourage employees to recover more trim scraps. The film - making workshop strictly follows the Film Manufacturing Order and the requirements on the effective width of the parent roll in its manufacturing; while the Technical and Quality Assurance Department strictly controls the sampling size according to the testing requirements when selecting parent roll samples, oversampling is prohibited and cutting waste is minimized to reduce wastes in the manufacturing process. 3. In terms of packaging products, in response to the ecological civilization construction strategy implemented by the country and in line with the development ideology of “embrace ecological environmental protection through energy saving and carbon reduction”, we continue to embrace innovation in packaging materials. During the reporting period, Hongchuang Packaging used special technology and materials to replace traditional 69 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report oil packaging with paper-plastic packaging to reduce the use of plastic. In addition, Hongchuang Packaging also reformed the roof packaging design to reduce the size of trash and improve user-friendliness to promote the green development of the industrial chain. We believe the industry is leading to a greener future, and life cycle assessment assists companies to determine the strategies and direction of green development. in 2023, we continued to conduct product life cycle environmental impact assessments. For example, Wuxi Energy performed life cycle assessments on certain products in accordance with the requirements of ISO14040 and ISO14044 as the basis for the research on reducing product carbon footprints.

Audit Report Type of audit opinion Standard unqualified opinion Signature date of audit report April 24, 2024 Audit organization name Dahua CPAs (SGP) Audit report No. Da Hua Shen Zi No. [2024] 0011001946 Name of Certified Public Accountant Kang Wenjun, Yao Rui Body of the audit report To all shareholders of Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd.: I. Audit Opinions We have audited the financial statements of Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. (“Energy Technology”), including the consolidated and the parent company’s balance sheets as of December 31, 2023, the consolidated and parent company’s income statement, the consolidated and the parent company’s cash flow statement, the consolidated and the parent company’s statement of changes in equity for 2023, and the relevant notes to financial statements. In our opinion, the enclosed financial statements were prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises in all material aspects and fairly reflected the Energy Technology’s consolidated and the parent company’s financial positions as of December 31, 2023 as well as the consolidated and the parent company’s operation results and cash flow for 2023. II. Basis for Audit Opinions We carried out the audit work according to the Auditing Standards for Chinese CPA. Our responsibilities under the Standards are further described under the section titled “responsibilities of CPA for auditing financial statements” in this audit report. We are independent from Energy Technology and have fulfilled the obligations in terms of professional ethics according to Code of Professional Conduct for Chinese CPAs. We believe that the evidences we obtained are adequate and proper, and lay a solid foundation for the audit opinion. III. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those that we believe are of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period based on professional judgment. These matters are addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined that the following matters are key audit matters to be communicated in the audit report. 1. Revenue recognition 2. Provision for bad debts of accounts receivable (I) Revenue recognition matters 1. Description of matters Please refer to Note IV-(33) and Note VI-44 of the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policies and book amount information of the revenue recognition of Energy Technology in this year. The operating revenue of Energy Technology in 2023 amounted to RMB12,042,229,800, which was the main source of its profit and affected its key performance indicators. In addition, according to the industry practice, after signing the sales order with customer, Energy Technology arranges production based on customer’s requirements, delivers it to customers pursuant to the agreed delivery method, obtains the customer’s evidence on the transfer of the ownership of goods, and then recognizes the sales revenue. Since the time of revenue recognition is later than the product delivery, and the delivery time and delivery document recognition are all dependent on the customer, there may be significant risk of misstatement if the sales revenue is fully included in the appropriate accounting period. Therefore, we recognize revenue as a key audit matter. 2. Audit Response Our key audit procedures for revenue recognition include: (1) Understand and evaluate the design of internal control of revenue recognition by the management, and test the effectiveness of key control implementation; (2) Obtain a major business contract, identify terms and conditions related to the transfer of commodity ownership, and assess whether the income recognition policy of Energy Technology is in line with the relevant provisions of the enterprise accounting standards; (3) Perform analytical review procedures on revenue and gross profit based on the product types and customer conditions of Energy Technology, and determine the reasonableness of the changes in sales revenue and gross profit margin; (4) Understand the background and basic information of the main customers, identify whether they are related parties, and confirm the accounts receivable balance and sales amount of the main customers by confirmation letters; (5) Select samples from the sales revenue ledger, check the relevant documents such as contracts (orders), invoices, delivery documents, pay attention to the delivery time, and check the revenue recognition time point; (6) Check the sales revenue recognized before and after the balance sheet date with supporting documents of sales revenue recognition, and implement the cut-off test and subsequent inspection procedures for revenue recognition; (7) Assess whether the management’s disclosure of income statement is appropriate. According to the audit procedures and the evidence we have obtained, we believe that the income of Energy Technology is real and recorded correctly during the accounting period. (II) Provision for bad debts of accounts receivable 1. Description of matters Please refer to Note IV-(12) and Note VI-4 of the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policies and book value amount of accounts 113 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report receivables of Energy Technology in this year. On December 31, 2023, the original book value of accounts receivable of Energy Technology was RMB6,865,281,600, the bad debt provision was RMB1,455,818 and the net value was RMB67,196,998, accounting for 14.24% of the total assets at the end of the period. Based on the financial situation of the counterparty, the management evaluates the guarantee obtained to the accounts receivable, the aging of the accounts receivable, the credit rating and historical repayment record of the counterparty, and with reference to the historical credit loss experience, combined with the current situation and the forecast of the future economic situation, the management considers to accrue bad debt for the accounts receivable according to the expected credit loss in the whole duration. As the determination of the amount of bad debt provision requires the management to use significant accounting estimates and judgments, and accounts receivable is important to the financial statements, therefore, we regard the bad debt provision of accounts receivable as a key audit matter. 2. Audit response (1) Understand and evaluate the management’s key internal control over the daily management and provision for accounts receivable, and carry out the corresponding walk-through test; (2) For accounts receivable with significant single amount and credit impairment occurred after initial recognition, the bases for the management’s assessment of the expected future available cash flow shall be reviewed to analyze whether it is reasonable; (3) For the accounts receivable of bad debt provision withdrawn by the management according to the combination of credit risk characteristics, combined with the credit risk characteristics and aging analysis, evaluate the rationality of the withdrawal of bad debt provision by the management; (4) Evaluated the adequacy of the management’s provision for bad debt in combination with the check of payment collection after the period; (5) Assess whether the management’s disclosure of accounts receivable financial statements is appropriate. Based on the audit procedures we have implemented and the evidence we have obtained, we believe that the accounting estimates of the bad debt provision of accounts receivable made by Energy Technology are fully reasonable. IV. Other Information Energy Technology’s management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all of the information included in the financial report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of the other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. V. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for Financial Statements Energy Technology’s management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements that give a fair view in accordance with CAS, and for designing, implementing and maintaining such internal control as the management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing the Energy Technology’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the management either intends to liquidate Energy Technology or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing Energy Technology’s financial reporting process. VI. Responsibilities of CPA for Auditing Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with CAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with CAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: 1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. 3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management. 4. Conclude on the appropriateness of the management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting. Based on the audit evidence obtained, conclude on whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on Energy Technology’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required by CAS to draw users’ attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause Energy Technology to cease to continue as a going concern. 5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within Energy Technology to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Company audit and remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any noteworthy deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, 114 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Accounting treatments for business combination under common control and not under common control (1) When the terms, conditions and economic influence of transactions in the process of a step-by-step combination conform to one or more of the following, accounting for multiple transactions is treated as a package transaction. 1) These transactions are made simultaneously or with consideration of influence on each other; 2) These transactions can only achieve a complete business outcome when treated as a whole; 3) The occurrence of a transaction depends on the occurrence of at least one of the other transactions; 4) A transaction is uneconomical when treated alone, but is economical when considered together with other transactions. (2) Business combination under common control The assets and liabilities acquired by the Company in business combinations are measured in accordance with the book value of assets and liabilities of the combined party in the ultimate controller’s consolidated financial statements on the date of combination (including the goodwill of the ultimate controlling party resulting from the acquisition of the combined party). The difference between the book value of net assets acquired in the combination and the book value of the consideration paid for the combination (or the total par value of shares issued) is used to adjust the capital stock premium in the capital reserve, and when the capital stock premium in the capital reserve is insufficient for offset, it is used to adjust the retained earnings. If there is a contingent consideration and it is necessary to confirm the estimated liabilities or assets, the difference between the estimated amount of liabilities or assets and the settlement amount of subsequent contingent consideration is used to adjust the capital reserve (capital premium or premium on capital stock), and when the capital reserve is insufficient, it is used to adjust the retained earnings. For a business combination that is ultimately realized through multiple transactions, if it is a package transaction, each transaction is treated as a transaction that acquires control; if it is not a package transaction, on the date of acquisition of control, the difference between the initial cost of long-term equity investment and the book value of long-term equity investment before the combination plus the book value of the new paid consideration on the date of combination is used to adjust the capital reserve; and when the capital reserve is insufficient for offset, it is used to adjust the retained earnings. For equity investments held prior to the date of combination, no accounting treatment is carried out for other comprehensive income recognized by equity accounting or financial instrument confirmation and measurement standards, and up to the disposal of the investment, the accounting treatment shall be based on the same basis as the direct disposal of the assets or liabilities of the invested entity; other changes in owner’s equity other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income or profit distribution of net assets of the invested company recognized by equity method are not subject to accounting, and will be transferred to the current profit and loss until the disposal of the investment. (3) Business combination not under the common control Purchase date refers to the date when the Company actually obtains the control right over the acquire, that is, the date when the control right over the net assets or production and operation decision is transferred to the Company. When the following conditions are met at the same time, the Company generally considers that the transfer of control right has been realized: 1) The business combination contract or agreement has been approved by the internal authority of the Company. 2) The business combination matters that need to be considered and approved by the relevant competent departments of the state have been approved. 3) Necessary procedures for transfer of property rights have been completed. 4) The Company has paid most of the combination price, and has the ability and plan to pay the remaining amount. 5) In fact, the Company has controlled the financial and operational policies of the acquiree, enjoyed corresponding benefits and assumed corresponding risks. The assets paid and liabilities incurred or assumed of the Company as a consideration for the business combination are measured at fair value on the date of purchase, and the difference between the fair value and the book value is recognized in profit or loss. The difference between the higher combination cost and lower fair value of identifiable net assets of the acquiree gained in the combination is recognized as goodwill by the Company. In case the combination cost is less than the fair value of the share of the attributable net identifiable assets of the acquiree, a review of the measurement of the fair values of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree and the combination cost is conducted. If the review indicates that the fair value of the combination cost is indeed less than the fair value of the share of the attributable net identifiable assets of the acquiree, the difference is included in current profit or loss. For the case where a business combination involving enterprises not under common control is finally realized through multiple transactions step by step, if it is a package transaction, each transaction is treated as a transaction for acquiring control; if it is not a package transaction, if the equity investment held before the date of combination is accounted for by equity method, the book value of equity investment of the acquiree held before the date of acquisition plus the new investment cost on the date of acquisition is recognized as the initial cost of the investment; the other comprehensive income confirmed by equity method before the date of acquisition is accounted for, when the investment is disposed, on the same basis as those the invested party adopted directly to dispose the relevant assets or liabilities. If the equity investment held before the date of combination is accounted for by financial instrument recognition and measurement criteria, the fair value of equity investment on the date of combination plus the new investment cost is taken as the initial investment cost on the date of combination. The difference between the fair value and the book value of the original equity interest, and the accumulated fair value changes originally included in other comprehensive income should be transferred to investment income in the current period of combination date. (4) Related expenses incurred for business combination 134 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report The agency fees paid for audits, legal services, assessments and other related expenses incurred in the business combination are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. The transaction costs for the issuance of equity securities for the business combination that may be directly attributed to equity transactions can be deducted from equity. 7. Criteria for judgement of control and methods for preparation of the consolidated financial statements (1) Criteria for judgement of control Control refers to the investor has the power over the investee, enjoys variable returns by participating in the relevant activities of the investee, and has the ability to use the power over the investee to influence the amount of returns. The Company makes judgments on whether or not it controls the investee after considering all relevant facts and circumstances. Once changes in relevant facts and circumstances lead to changes in the relevant elements involved in the definition of control, the Company will re-evaluate them. The relevant facts and circumstances mainly include: 1) the purpose of establishment of the investee. 2) the relevant activities of the investee and how to make decisions about the relevant activities. 3) whether the investor has the right to direct the relevant activities of the investee. 4) whether the investor is entitled to variable returns from its involvement with the investee. 5) whether the investor has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of its returns. 6) the relationship between the investor and other parties. (2) The scope of consolidation The scope of consolidation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis of control, and all subsidiaries (including separate entities controlled by the Company) are included in the consolidated financial statements. (3) Procedures for consolidation The Company prepares consolidated financial statements based on the financial statements of itself and its subsidiaries and other relevant information. While preparing consolidated financial statements, the Company treats the entire enterprise group as an accounting entity, and in accordance with the requirements for confirmation, measurement and presentation of relevant enterprise accounting standards, and based on unified accounting policies, reflects the overall financial status, operating results and cash flow of the enterprise group. The accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by all subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements are consistent with the Company. If the accounting policies or accounting periods adopted by the subsidiaries are inconsistent with the Company, necessary adjustments will be made in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies and accounting periods when preparing consolidated financial statements. The impact of internal transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries, and internal transactions between subsidiaries, on the consolidated balance sheet, consolidated income statement, consolidated cash flow statement and consolidated statement of changes in shareholders’ equity is offset in the preparation of consolidated financial statements. If the determination of the same transaction is different from the perspective of the consolidated financial statements of the enterprise group and with the Company or subsidiaries as the accounting entity, the transaction shall be adjusted from the perspective of the enterprise group. Subsidiary owners’ equity, current net profit and loss, and current comprehensive income of the minority shareholders are separately presented under the owner’s equity item in the consolidated balance sheet, the net profit item in the consolidated income statement, and the total comprehensive income item. If the current losses shared by the minority shareholders of a subsidiary exceed the share enjoyed by the minority shareholder in the initial owner’s equity of the subsidiary, the excess is deducted from the minority interests. For subsidiaries acquired from a business combination involving enterprises under common control, the individual financial statements of the subsidiaries shall be adjusted based on the book value of their assets and liabilities (including the goodwill arising from the ultimate controller’s acquisition of the subsidiary) in the ultimate controller’s financial statements. For subsidiaries acquired from a business combination involving enterprises not under common control, the financial statements of the subsidiaries are adjusted based on the fair value of the identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. (1) Increase in subsidiary or business During the Reporting Period, if a subsidiary or business is added due to a business combination under common control, the opening amount of the consolidated balance sheet shall be adjusted; the income, expenses and profits of the subsidiary or business combination from the beginning of the current period to the end of the Reporting Period shall be included in the consolidated income statement; the cash flow from the beginning of the current period to the end of the Reporting Period of the subsidiary or business combination is included in the consolidated cash flow statement, and the relevant items in the comparative statement are adjusted at the same time, as if the consolidated reporting entity has been in existence since the ultimate controller begins the control. If the investee under the common control can be controlled due to additional investment or other reasons, the parties involved in the combination shall be deemed to have made adjustments in their current state when the ultimate controlling party begins the control. For the equity investment held by the merging entity prior to obtaining control over the merged entity, the relevant profit and loss, other comprehensive income and other changes to net assets recognized in the period from the date of acquiring the original equity or the date when the merging entity and merged entity are under common control, whichever is later, to the date of combination, shall be covered by writing down the opening retained earnings or current profit and loss of the comparison period. 135 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report During the Reporting Period, if a subsidiary or business is added due to a business combination involving enterprises under non- common control, the opening balance of the consolidated balance sheet is not adjusted; the income, expenses and profits of the subsidiary and business from the date of acquisition to the end of the Reporting Period are included in the consolidated income statement; the cash flows of the subsidiary and business from the date of acquisition to the end of the Reporting Period are included in the consolidated cash flow statement. If the investee under the common control can be controlled due to additional investment or other reasons, the equity interest held in the acquiree prior to the date of acquisition is re-measured according to its fair value at the date of acquisition. The difference between the fair value and the book value is recognized as investment income for the current period. If the equity held in the acquiree held before the acquisition date involves other comprehensive income under the equity method and other changes in owner’s equity other than net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution, related other comprehensive income, and other changes in owner’s equity are converted into the investment income of the current period on the acquisition date, except for other comprehensive gains arising from the re-measurement of net liabilities of the defined benefit plan made by the invested party or changes in net assets. (2) Disposal of subsidiary or business 1) General treatment method During the Reporting Period, if the Company disposes of a subsidiary or business, the income, expenses and profits of the subsidiary or business from the beginning of the period to the disposal date are included in the consolidated income statement; the cash flows of the subsidiary or business from the beginning of the Reporting Period to the disposal date are included in the consolidated cash flow statement. When the Company loses control over the invested party due to disposal of part of the equity investment or other reasons, the remaining equity investment after disposal will be re-measured according to its fair value by the Company on the date of loss of control. The difference of the sum of the consideration obtained from the disposal of the equity and the fair value of the remaining equity, less the sum of the share of net assets and goodwill of the original subsidiary that should be enjoyed in accordance with the original share-holding ratio since the date of acquisition or combination, is accounted for the investment income in the current period of loss of control. Other comprehensive income related to the equity investment of the original subsidiary or other changes in owner’s equity other than net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution, will be converted into current investment income when control is lost, except for other comprehensive gains arising from the re-measurement of net liabilities of the defined benefit plan made by the invested party or changes in net assets. 2) Disposal of subsidiaries in steps If the equity investment in a subsidiary is disposed of in steps through multiple transactions until the loss of control, the terms, conditions, and economic impact of the disposal of the equity investment in the subsidiary meet one or more of the following conditions, it usually indicates that multiple transactions shall be accounted as a package deal: A. These transactions are made simultaneously or with consideration of influence on each other; B. These transactions can only achieve a complete business outcome when treated as a whole; C. The occurrence of a transaction depends on the occurrence of at least one of the other transactions; D. A transaction is uneconomical when treated alone, but is economical when considered together with other transactions. If all transactions from disposal of equity investment in subsidiaries to loss of control belong to a package deal, each transaction shall be treated as a transaction for disposal of equity investment in subsidiaries and loss of control. The difference between each disposal price and the share of the subsidiary’s net assets corresponding to the disposal investment before the loss of the control is recognized as other comprehensive income in the consolidated financial statements, which is transferred into the current profit and loss when the control is lost. If the disposal of the equity investment in the subsidiary until the loss of control is not a package deal, before the loss of control, the accounting treatment shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant policies for partial disposal of the equity investment of the subsidiary without loss of control; when the control is lost, the accounting treatment shall be carried out in accordance with the general treatment method for the disposal of the subsidiary. (3) Acquisition of minority’ equity in subsidiary The difference between the additional long-term equity investment arising from the acquisition of minority equity and the net assets of the subsidiary, which is calculated according to the new holding proportion since the date of acquisition (or the date of combination) shall be covered by adjusting the equity premium in capital reserve of the consolidated balance sheet; if the equity premium in capital reserve is not sufficient for write-off, retained earnings shall be adjusted. (4) Partial disposal of the equity investment of the subsidiary without loss of control If the parent company disposes of part of its long-term equity investment in the subsidiary without losing its control, the difference between the disposal price and the net assets of the subsidiary corresponding to the equity investment disposed of since the date of acquisition or the date of combination shall be covered by adjusting the equity premium in capital reserve of the consolidated balance sheet; if the equity premium in capital reserve is not sufficient for write-off, retained earnings shall be adjusted. 8. Classification of joint venture arrangements and accounting treatment method for joint operations (1) Classification of joint arrangements The Company divides joint venture arrangements into joint operations and joint ventures based on factors such as the structure, legal form, and terms in the joint venture arrangement and other relevant facts and circumstances. 136 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report Joint venture arrangements that are not reached through separate entities are classified as joint operations; joint arrangements reached through separate entities are usually classified as joint ventures; there is conclusive evidence that joint arrangements that meet any of the following conditions and comply with relevant laws and regulations are classified as joint operations: 1) The legal form of the joint arrangement indicates that the joint venture party has the rights and obligations of the related assets and liabilities in the arrangement. 2) According to contractual terms of the joint arrangement, the joint venture party has the rights and obligations of the related assets and liabilities in the arrangement 3) Other relevant facts and circumstances indicate that the joint venture party has the rights and obligations of the related assets and liabilities in the arrangement. For example, the joint venture party enjoys almost all the output related to the joint venture arrangement, and the settlement of the liabilities in the arrangement continues to rely on the support from the joint venture party. (2) Accounting treatment for joint operations The Company recognizes the following items related to the share of interests in joint operations and makes accounting treatment according to the relevant ASBE: 1) Recognizes the assets held separately, and the assets held jointly according to its proportion; 2) Recognizes the liabilities assumed separately, and the liabilities assumed jointly according to its proportion; 3) Recognizes the income from the sales of its share in the outputs of joint operation; 4) Recognizes the income from the sales of the outputs of joint operation according to is proportion; 5) Recognizes the expenses incurred separately, and recognize the expenses incurred jointly according to its proportion. If the Company invests or sells assets, etc. to a joint operation (except that if the asset constitutes a business), before the asset, etc., is sold by the joint operation to a third party, only the profit and loss arising from the transaction attributable to other participants in the joint operation is recognized. In the event of asset impairment losses complying with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 8 - Asset Impairment and other provisions of assets invested or sold, the Company shall recognize the loss in full. If the Company purchases assets, etc. from a joint operation (except that if the asset constitutes a business), before the asset, etc., is sold to a third party, only the profit and loss arising from the transaction attributable to other participants in the joint operation is recognized. In the event of asset impairment losses complying with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 8 - Asset Impairment and other provisions of assets purchased, the Company shall recognize the loss based on the share it holds. The Company does not have joint control over the joint operation. If the Company enjoys the joint operation-related assets and assumes the joint operation-related liabilities, the accounting treatment shall still be carried out in accordance with the above principles; otherwise, the accounting treatment shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant corporate accounting standards. 9. Determination standards for cash and cash equivalents In the preparation of the cash flow statement, the Company’s cash on hand and deposits that can be readily used for payment are recognized as cash. The investment that has the four conditions of short maturity (generally due within three months from the date of purchase), strong liquidity, easy conversion into cash of a known amount, and low risk of value changes will be determined as cash equivalents. 10. Foreign currency business and foreign currency statement translation (1) Foreign currency business In the initial confirmation of foreign currency transactions, the spot exchange rate on the date of occurrence of the transaction shall be used as the conversion rate to convert into RMB for accounting. At the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated at the spot exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and the resulting exchange differences are included in the current profit and loss, except for the exchange differences arising from foreign currency special borrowings related to the acquisition and construction of assets eligible for capitalization, which are treated in accordance with the principle of capitalization of borrowing costs. The foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost are still translated at the spot exchange rate on the date of transaction without changing the amount of recording currency. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value shall be translated at the spot exchange rate on the date of determination of fair value. The difference between the translated amount of recording currency and the original amount of recording currency shall be treated as fair value changes (including changes in exchange rate), and included in the current profit and loss or recognized as other comprehensive income. (2) Translation of foreign currency financial statements The assets and liabilities items in the balance sheet shall be treated at the spot exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Except for the “undistributed profit” items, other owner’s equity items shall be translated at the spot exchange rate at the time of occurrence. The income and expense items in the income statement shall be translated at the current average exchange rate. The exchange differences on translation of foreign currency financial statements generated in accordance with the above translation shall be included in other comprehensive income. When disposing of an overseas operation, the difference in translation of the foreign currency financial statements related to the overseas operation listed in other comprehensive income items in the balance sheet shall be transferred from other comprehensive income items to the profits and losses of the current period for disposal. When the proportion of overseas business interests held is reduced due to the disposal of part of equity investment or other reasons but the right of control over overseas business is not lost, the difference of translation of foreign currency statements related to the disposal part of overseas business will be attributed to 137 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report minority shareholders’ rights and interests and will not be transferred to current profit and loss. When disposing of part of the equity of an overseas operation that is an associate or a joint venture, the difference on translation of the foreign currency statement related to the overseas operation shall be transferred to the disposal of the current profit and loss according to the proportion of the disposal of the overseas operation. 11. Financial instruments When the Company becomes a party to a financial instrument, it recognizes a financial asset or liability. The effective interest method refers to the method of calculating the amortized cost of financial assets or liabilities and allocating interest income or interest expense into each accounting period. The effective interest rate refers to the interest rate used to discount the estimated future cash flow of a financial asset or financial liability during its expected duration to the book balance of the financial asset or the amortized cost of the financial liability. When determining the effective interest rate, the expected cash flow is estimated on the basis of considering all contract terms of financial assets or liabilities (such as prepayment, extension, call options or other similar options), but the expected credit loss is not considered. The amortized cost of a financial asset or financial liability is the accumulated amortization amount formed by deducting the repaid principal from the initial recognition amount of the financial asset or financial liability, adding or subtracting the difference between the initial recognition amount and the maturity amount by using the effective interest method, and then deducting the accumulated accrued loss reserve (only applicable to financial assets). (1) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial assets According to the business model of the financial assets under management and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets, the Company divides the financial assets into the following three categories: 1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost. 2) Financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income. 3) Financial assets measured at fair value through profit and loss. Financial assets are measured at fair value when initially recognized, but if the accounts or notes receivable arising from the sale of goods or the provision of services do not contain significant financing components or do not consider financing components for no more than one year, the initial measurement shall be made at the transaction price. For financial assets measured at fair value through profit and loss, transaction expenses are directly recognized in the current profit and loss. For other financial assets, transaction expenses are included in the initial recognition amount. Subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification. All related financial assets affected will be reclassified when and only when the Company changes its business model of managing financial assets. A. Financial assets classified as measured at amortized cost The contract terms of a financial asset stipulate that the cash flow generated on a specific date is only the payment of the principal and the interest on the amount of outstanding principal, and the business model for managing the financial asset is to collect the contractual cash flow, then the Company classifies the financial asset as measured at amortized cost. Financial assets of the Company that are classified as measured at amortized cost include monetary funds, some notes receivable and accounts receivable measured at amortized cost, other receivables, etc. The Company recognizes interest income from such financial assets with the effective interest method, and carries out subsequent measurement at amortized cost. Gains or losses arising from impairment or derecognition or modification are included in the current profit and loss. The Company calculates and determines the interest income based on the book balance of financial assets multiplied by the effective interest rate except for the following circumstances: a. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, the Company calculates and determines their interest income at the amortized cost of the financial asset and the credit-adjusted effective interest rate since the initial recognition. b. For financial assets that have not been credit-impaired at the time of being purchased or originated but become credit-impaired in the subsequent period, the Company calculates and determines their interest income at the amortized cost and the effective interest rate of the financial assets in the subsequent period. If the financial instrument is no longer credit-impaired due to the improvement of its credit risk in the subsequent period, the Company calculates and determines the interest income by multiplying the effective interest rate by the book balance of the financial asset. B. Financial assets classified as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income The contract terms of a financial asset stipulate that the cash flow generated on a specific date is only the payment of the principal and the interest on the amount of outstanding principal, and the business model for managing the financial asset is both to collect contractual cash flows and for its sale, then the Company classifies the financial asset as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income. The Company recognizes interest income from such financial assets with the effective interest method. Except that the interest income, impairment loss and exchange difference are recognized as the current profit and loss, other changes in fair value are included in other comprehensive income. When the financial asset is derecognized, the accumulated gains or losses previously included in other comprehensive income are transferred out and included in the current profit and loss. Notes and accounts receivable measured at fair value with changes included in other comprehensive income are reported as receivables financing, and such other financial assets are reported as other creditors’ investments. Among them, other creditors’ investments maturing within one year from the balance sheet date are reported as non-current assets maturing within one year, and other creditors’ investments maturing within one year are reported as other current assets. C. Financial assets designated as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income 138 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report At the time of initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate non-trading equity instrument investments as financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income on the basis of individual financial assets. Changes in the fair value of such financial assets are included in other comprehensive income without provision for impairment. When the financial asset is derecognized, the accumulated gains or losses previously included in other comprehensive income are transferred out and included in the retained earnings. During the investment period when the Company holds the equity instrument, the dividend income is recognized and included in the current profit and loss when the Company’s right to receive dividends has been established, the economic benefits related to dividends are likely to flow into the Company, and the amount of dividends can be measured reliably. The Company reported such financial assets under other equity instrument investment items. An investment in equity instruments is a financial asset measured at fair value through profit and loss when it is obtained mainly for recent sale, or is part of the identifiable portfolio of financial assets centrally managed, and objective evidence exists for a short-term profit model in the near future when initially recognized, or is a derivative (except derivatives defined as financial guarantee contracts and designated as effective hedging instruments). D. Financial assets classified as measured at fair value through profit and loss If failing to be classified as measured at amortized cost or at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income, or not designated as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income, financial assets are all classified as measured at fair value through profit and loss. The Company carries out subsequent measurement of such financial assets at fair value, and includes gains or losses arising from changes in fair value as well as dividends and interest income associated with such financial assets into current profit and loss. The Company reports such financial assets as trading financial assets and other non-current financial assets according to their liquidity. E. Financial assets designated as measured at fair value through profit and loss At the time of initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate financial assets as measured at fair value through profit and loss on the basis of individual financial assets in order to eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatches. If the mixed contract contains one or more embedded derivative instruments and its main contract is not any financial asset as above, the Company may designate the whole of the mixed contract as a financial instrument measured at fair value through profit and loss. Except under the following circumstances: a. Embedded derivatives do not significantly change the cash flow of mixed contracts. b. When determining for the first time whether similar mixed contracts need to be split, it is almost clear that embedded derivatives contained in them should not be split without analysis. If the prepayment right embedded in a loan allows the holder to prepay the loan at an amount close to the amortized cost, the prepayment right does not need to be split. The Company carries out subsequent measurement of such financial assets at fair value, and includes gains or losses arising from changes in fair value as well as dividends and interest income associated with such financial assets into current profit and loss. The Company reports such financial assets as trading financial assets and other non-current financial assets according to their liquidity. (2) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities The Company classifies a financial instrument or its components into financial liabilities or equity instruments upon initial recognition according to the contract terms of and the economic essence reflected by the financial instrument issued, rather than only in legal form, in combination with the definitions of financial liabilities and equity instruments. Financial liabilities are classified at initial recognition as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in current profit and loss, or other financial liabilities, or derivatives designated as effective hedging instruments. Financial liabilities are measured at fair value upon initial recognition. For financial liabilities measured at fair value and whose changes are included in current profit and loss, relevant transaction expenses are directly included in current profit and loss. For other categories of financial liabilities, relevant transaction expenses are included in the initial recognition amount. Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification: 1) Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss Such financial liabilities include trading financial liabilities (including derivatives falling under financial liabilities) and financial liabilities designated as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in current profit and loss upon initial recognition. The financial liability is a trading financial liability if it is mainly undertaken for recent sale or repurchase, or is part of the identifiable portfolio of financial instruments centrally managed, and there is objective evidence that the enterprise has recently employed a short-term profit model, or is a derivative instrument, except derivatives designated as effective hedging instruments and derivatives conforming to financial guarantee contracts. Trading financial liabilities (including derivatives belonging to financial liabilities) shall be subsequently measured according to fair value. Except in relation to hedge accounting, all changes in fair value shall be recorded into current profit and loss. The Company irrevocably designates financial liabilities as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in current profit and loss at the time of initial recognition in order to provide more relevant accounting information if: A. Such financial liabilities can eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatches. B. The financial liability portfolio or the portfolio of financial assets and liabilities is managed and evaluated for performance on the basis of fair value according to the enterprise risk management or investment strategy stated in the official written documents, and is reported to key management personnel within the enterprise on this basis. The Company subsequently measures such financial liabilities at fair value. Except changes in fair value that are brought about by changes in the Company’s own credit risk are included in other comprehensive income, other changes in fair value are included in current profit and loss. Unless including such changes in other comprehensive income will cause or expand accounting mismatch 139 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report in profit or loss, the Company will include all changes in fair value (including the amount affected by changes in its own credit risk) in current profit and loss. 2) Other financial liabilities The Company classifies financial liabilities except for the following items as measured at amortized cost. Such financial liabilities are recognized by the effective interest method and subsequently measured at amortized cost. Gains or losses arising from derecognition or amortization are included in the current profit and loss: A. Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss. B. Financial liabilities resulting from the transfer of financial assets that do not meet the conditions for derecognition or continue to be involved in the transferred financial assets. C. Financial guarantee contracts that do not fall under the first two categories of this article, and loan commitments that do not fall under category 1) of this article and lend at a below-market interest rate. Financial guarantee contracts refer to contracts that require the issuer to pay a specific amount to the contract holder who has suffered losses when a specific debtor fails to pay the debt in accordance with the original or modified terms of the debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts that are not financial liabilities designated as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in current profit and loss are measured after initial recognition according to the loss reserve amount and of the initial recognition amount, less the accumulated amortization amount during the guarantee period, whichever is higher. (3) Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities 1) Financial assets are derecognized, i.e. written off from its account and balance sheet if: A. The contractual right to receive cash flow from the financial asset is terminated. B. The financial asset has been transferred, which meets the requirements for derecognition of financial assets. 2) Conditions for derecognition of financial liabilities If the current obligation of a financial liability (or part thereof) has been discharged, such financial liability (or part thereof) is derecognized. The existing financial liability is derecognized with a new one recognized, and the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration paid (including transferred non-cash assets or assumed liabilities) is included in the current profit and loss, if an agreement is signed between the Company and the lender to replace the existing financial liability by assuming a new one, and the contract terms of these two financial liabilities are substantially different, or the contract terms of the existing financial liability (or part thereof) are substantially modified. If the Company repurchases part of a financial liability, the carrying amount of the financial liability shall be distributed according to the proportion of the fair value of the continuing recognition portion and the derecognition portion to the overall fair value on the repurchase date. The difference between the carrying amount allocated to the derecognized portion and the consideration paid (including transferred non-cash assets or liabilities assumed) shall be included in the current profit and loss. (4) Recognition basis and measurement method of financial asset transfer When a financial asset is transferred, the Company evaluates the risks and rewards retained of the financial asset ownership: 1) If almost all the risks and rewards of the financial asset ownership are transferred, such financial asset shall be derecognized, and the rights and obligations generated or retained in the transfer shall be separately recognized as assets or liabilities. 2) If almost all the risks and rewards of the financial asset ownership are retained, such financial asset shall continue to be recognized. 3) In circumstances when the Company neither transfers nor retains almost all the risks and rewards of the financial asset ownership (i.e. circumstances other than 1) and 2) of this article), according to whether it retains control over such financial asset: A. The financial asset shall be derecognized, and the rights and obligations generated or retained in the transfer shall be separately recognized as assets or liabilities if such control is not retained. B. The relevant financial asset shall continue to be recognized to the extent that it continues to be involved in the transferred financial asset, and the relevant liabilities shall be recognized accordingly if such control is retained. The extent that it continues to be involved in the transferred financial asset refers to the extent the Company bears the risks or rewards on changes in the value of the transferred financial asset. When judging whether the transfer of financial assets meets the above conditions for derecognition of financial assets, the principle of substance over form shall be adopted. The Company divides the transfer of financial assets into overall transfer and partial transfer. 1) If the overall transfer of financial assets meets the conditions for derecognition, the difference between the following two amounts shall be included in the current profit and loss: A. The carrying amount of the transferred financial asset on the date of derecognition. B. The sum of the consideration received for the transfer of financial assets and the amount of the corresponding derecognized portion of the accumulated changes in fair value originally included in other comprehensive income directly (the financial assets involved in the transfer are financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income). 2) If the financial asset is partially transferred and the transferred part meets the conditions for derecognition, the carrying amount of the financial asset before transfer shall be allocated between the derecognition portion and the continuing recognition portion (in this case, the retained service asset shall be regarded as the continuing recognition part of the financial asset) according to the respective relative fair values on the transfer date, and the difference between the following two amounts shall be included in the current profit and loss: 140 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report A. The carrying amount of the derecognized portion on the derecognition date. B. The sum of the consideration received for the derecognized portion and the amount of the corresponding derecognized portion of the accumulated changes in fair value originally included in other comprehensive income (the financial assets involved in the transfer are financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income). If the transfer of a financial asset does not meet the conditions for derecognition, the financial asset shall continue to be recognized and the consideration received shall be recognized as a financial liability. (5) Determination of fair value of financial assets and liabilities The fair value of a financial asset or liability with an active market shall be determined by the quoted price in the active market, unless the financial asset has a sell-off period for the asset itself. For the financial assets restricted for the assets themselves, the compensation amount demanded by market participants due to the risk of not being able to sell the financial assets on the open market within the specified period shall be deducted from the quoted price in the active market. Quoted prices in the active market includes those for related assets or liabilities that can be easily and regularly obtained from exchanges, dealers, brokers, industry groups, pricing or regulatory agencies, and can represent actual and recurring market transactions on the basis of fair trade. The fair value of financial assets initially acquired or derived or financial liabilities assumed shall be determined on the basis of market transaction price. The fair value of financial assets or liabilities without an active market shall be determined by valuation techniques. At the time of valuation, the Company adopts valuation techniques that are applicable under the current circumstances and are supported by sufficient available data and other information, selects input values consistent with the characteristics of relevant assets or liabilities considered by market participants in the transactions thereof, and gives priority to the use of relevant observable input values whenever possible. If the relevant observable input value cannot be obtained or be feasibly obtained, the unobservable input value shall be used. (6) Impairment of financial instruments Based on the expected credit loss, the Company conducts impairment accounting of financial assets classified as measured at amortized cost and financial assets classified as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income and recognizes loss reserves. Expected credit loss refers to the weighted average of the credit losses of financial instruments weighted by the risk of default. Credit loss refers to the difference between all contractual cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate and receivable according to the contract and all cash flows expected to be collected of the Company, i.e. the present value of all cash shortfalls. Among them, credit-impaired purchased or originated financial assets of the Company shall be discounted at the credit- adjusted effective interest rate of such financial assets. For contractual assets, notes receivable and receivables arising from transactions regulated by the income criteria, the Company measures the loss reserve according to the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss during the entire duration. For credit-impaired purchased or originated financial assets, only the accumulated changes in the expected credit losses during the entire duration since the initial recognition are recognized as loss reserves on the balance sheet date. On each balance sheet date, the amount of change in the expected credit loss during the entire duration is included in the current gains and losses as impairment losses or gains. Even if the expected credit loss during the entire duration on the balance sheet date is less than that reflected in the estimated cash flow upon initial recognition, the favorable change in the expected credit loss is recognized as impairment gains. In addition to other financial assets adopting the above simplified measurement method and other than the credit-impaired purchased or originated ones, the Company evaluates whether the credit risk of relevant financial instruments has increased significantly since the initial recognition, measures its loss reserves and recognizes the expected credit loss and its changes respectively according to the following circumstances on each balance sheet date: 1) If the credit risk of the financial instrument has not increased significantly since its initial recognition and is in the first stage, its loss reserve shall be measured according to an amount equivalent to its expected credit loss in the next 12 months, and the interest income shall be calculated at the book balance and the effective interest rate. 2) If the credit risk of the financial instrument has increased significantly since the initial recognition but no credit impairment has occurred, it is in the second stage, then its loss reserve shall be measured according to an amount equivalent to its expected credit loss throughout its life, and the interest income shall be calculated at the book balance and the effective interest rate. 3) If the financial instrument is credit-impaired since its initial recognition, it is in the third stage, and the Company shall measure its loss reserve according to an amount equivalent to its expected credit loss throughout its life, and calculate the interest income at the amortized cost and the effective interest rate. The increase or reversed amount of the credit loss reserve for financial instruments shall be included in the current profit and loss as impairment losses or gains. Except for financial assets classified as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income, the credit loss reserve will offset the carrying amount of the financial assets. For financial assets classified as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income, the Company recognizes its credit loss reserve in other comprehensive income without reducing its carrying amount presented in the balance sheet. In the previous accounting period, the Company has measured the loss reserve, the amount of which is equivalent to the expected credit loss of the financial instrument throughout its life. However, on the balance sheet date of the current period, the financial instrument no longer conforms to the situation of significant increase in credit risk since initial confirmation; on the balance sheet date of the current period, the Company has measured the loss reserve of the financial instrument, the amount of which is equivalent to the expected credit loss in the next 12 months, and the reversed amount of the loss reserve thus formed is included in the current profit and loss as impairment profit. A. Significant increase of credit risk 141 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report In order to determine whether the credit risk of financial instruments has increased significantly since the initial recognition, the Company uses the available reasonable and based forward-looking information and compares the risk of default of financial instruments on the balance sheet date with the risk of default on the initial confirmation date. When the Company applies provisions on depreciation of financial instruments to financial guarantee contracts, the initial recognition date shall be regarded as the date when the Company becomes a party to make irrevocable commitments. For the assessment of whether the credit risk has increased significantly, the Company will consider the following factors a. Whether the actual or expected operating results of the debtor have changed significantly; b. Whether the regulatory, economic or technological environment of the debtor has undergone significant adverse changes; c. Whether the following items have changed significantly: the value of collateral as debt mortgage, or the guarantee provided by a third party, or the quality of credit enhancement; these changes will reduce the debtor’s economic motivation to repay the loan within the time limit stipulated in the contract or impact the probability of default; d. Whether the debtor’s expected performance and repayment behavior have changed significantly; e. Whether the Company’s credit management methods for financial instruments have changed, etc. If, on the balance sheet date, the credit risk of the financial instrument is judged to be low by the Company, the Company assumes that the credit risk of the financial instrument has not increased significantly since the initial recognition. The financial instrument will be deemed to have lower credit risk under the following circumstances: the default risk of the financial instrument is lower; the borrower has a strong ability to fulfill its contractual cash flow obligations in a short time; furthermore, even if there are adverse changes in the economic situation and operating environment for a long period of time, it may not necessarily reduce the borrower’s ability to fulfill its contractual cash flow obligations. B. Financial assets with credit impairment If one or more events have adverse effects on the expected future cash flow of a financial asset, the financial asset will become a financial asset that has suffered credit impairment. The following observable information can be regarded as evidence of credit impairment of financial assets: a. The issuer or debtor is in serious financial difficulties; b. The debtor breaches the contract, such as default or overdue payment of interest or principal, etc.; c. The creditor gives concessions to the debtor due to economic or contractual considerations related to the debtor’s financial difficulties; the concessions will not be made under any other circumstances; d. There is a great possibility of bankruptcy or other financial restructuring of the debtor; e. The financial difficulties of the issuer or debtor cause the disappearance of the active market for the financial asset; f. The purchase or origin of a financial asset at a substantial discount that reflects the fact that a credit loss has occurred. Credit impairment of financial assets may not be caused by separately identifiable events, but may be caused by the combined effect of multiple events. C. Determination of expected credit loss The Company’s assessment of the expected credit losses of financial instruments is based on single items and combinations. During the evaluation, the Company will take into account reasonable and reliable information about past events, current situation and future economic situation forecast. The Company divides financial instruments into different combinations on the basis of common credit risk characteristics. Common credit risk characteristics adopted by the Company include: type of financial instrument, credit risk rating, aging portfolio, overdue aging portfolio, contract settlement period, debtor's industry, etc. To understand the individual evaluation criteria and combined credit risk characteristics of relevant financial instruments, please refer to the accounting policies of relevant financial instruments for details. The Company adopts the following methods to determine the expected credit losses of relevant financial instruments: a. In terms of financial assets, credit loss is equivalent to the present value of the difference between the contract cash flow that the Company shall receive and the expected cash flow. b. In terms of lease receivables, credit loss is equivalent to the present value of the difference between the contract cash flow that the Company shall receive and the expected cash flow. c. In terms of the financial guarantee contract, credit loss is equal to the expected amount of payment made by the Company to the holder of the contract for credit loss incurred, less the present value of the difference between the amount expected to be collected from the holder of the contract, the debtor or any other party. d. If, on the balance sheet date, a financial asset has suffered credit impairment, but one does not purchase or originate a financial asset that has suffered credit impairment, the credit loss is equivalent to the difference between the book balance of the financial asset and the present value of the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original actual interest rate. Factors reflected in the Company’s method of measuring the expected credit losses for financial instruments include: unbiased probability weighted average amount determined by evaluating a series of possible results; time value of money; reasonable and reliable information about past events, current situation and future economic situation forecast that can be obtained on the balance sheet date without unnecessary extra costs or efforts. 4) Write-off of financial assets If the Company cannot reasonably expect the contract cash flow of the financial asset to be fully or partially recovered, the book balance of the financial asset will be written off directly. This write-off constitutes the derecognition of relevant financial assets. (7) Offset of financial assets and financial liabilities In the balance sheet, financial assets and financial liabilities are shown separately without offsetting each other. However, if the following conditions are met at the same time, the net amount after offset will be listed in the balance sheet: 1) The Company has the legal right, which is currently enforceable, to offset the confirmed amount; 142 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report 2) The Company plans to settle on a net basis, or realize the financial assets and settle the financial liabilities at the same time. 12. Notes receivable For the determination method and accounting treatment method of the Company for the expected credit losses on notes receivable, please refer to “11-(6) Impairment of financial instruments” in this section. The Company separately determines credit losses for notes receivables that have sufficient evidence to assess expected credit losses at a reasonable cost at the level of a single instrument. When sufficient evidence of expected credit loss cannot be evaluated at a reasonable cost at the level of single instrument, the Company will refer to the experience of historical credit loss, combine the current situation and judgment on future economic situation, divide bills receivable into several combinations according to the characteristics of credit risk, and calculate expected credit loss on the basis of combinations. The basis for determining the portfolio is as follows: Item Basis for determining Method portfolio Bank acceptance bill Type of bill Refer to the experience of historical credit loss, combine the current situation and portfolio judgment on future economic situation to measure the expected credit loss Commercial Type of bill Refer to the experience historical credit loss, combine the current situation and acceptance bill judgement on future economic situation, and prepare a comparison table of aging and portfolio expected credit loss rate according to the expected credit loss in the whole duration, on which the expected credit loss is calculated. 13. Accounts receivable For the determination method and accounting treatment method of the Company for the expected credit losses on accounts receivable, please refer to “11-(6) Impairment of financial instruments” in this section. For accounts receivable with significant single amount and credit impairment occurring after initial recognition, the Company separately determines its credit losses. If sufficient evidence of expected credit loss cannot be assessed at reasonable cost at the level of single instrument, the Company will divide the accounts receivable into several portfolios according to the credit risk characteristics, and calculate the expected credit loss on the basis of the portfolio (with reference to the experience of historical credit loss, and in combination with the current situation with the judgment of future economic situation). The basis for determining the portfolio is as follows: Item Basis for determining portfolio Method Aging portfolio Accounts receivable with similar Referring to historical credit loss experience, combined with the current situation credit risk characteristics by aging and the forecast of future economic situation, according to the expected credit loss during the entire duration, a comparative table of age and expected credit loss rate is developed, based on which the expected credit loss is calculated. 14. Receivables financing Bills receivable and accounts receivable classified as measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, whose maturity is within one year (including one year) from the initial recognition date, are presented as receivables financing; those with a maturity of more than one year from the initial recognition date are presented as other debt investments. Please refer to Note 11 for relevant accounting policies. For the determination method and accounting treatment method of the Company’s expected credit loss on receivables financing, please refer to “11-(6) Impairment of financial instruments” in this section. The Company separately determines credit losses for receivables financing which sufficient evidence of expected credit loss can be assessed at a reasonable cost at the level of a single instrument. If sufficient evidence of expected credit loss cannot be assessed at reasonable cost at the level of single instrument, the Company will divide the receivables into several portfolios according to the credit risk characteristics, and calculate the expected credit loss on the basis of the portfolios (with reference to the experience of historical credit loss, and in combination with the current situation with the judgment of future economic situation). The basis for determining the portfolio is as follows: Item Basis for determining portfolio Accrual method Aging portfolio Accounts receivable with similar Referring to historical credit loss experience, combined with the current situation and credit risk characteristics by aging the forecast of future economic situation, according to the expected credit loss during the entire duration, a comparative table of age and expected credit loss rate is developed, based on which the expected credit loss is calculated 15. Other receivables For the determination method and accounting treatment method of the Company’s expected credit loss on other receivables, please refer to “11-(6) Impairment of financial instruments” in this section. The Company separately determines credit losses for other receivables that which sufficient evidence of expected credit loss can be assessed at the level of a single instrument. 143 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report If sufficient evidence of expected credit loss cannot be assessed at reasonable cost at the level of single instrument, the Company will divide the other receivables into several portfolios according to the credit risk characteristics, and calculate the expected credit loss on the basis of the portfolios (with reference to the experience of historical credit loss, and in combination with the current situation with the judgment of future economic situation). The basis for determining the portfolio is as follows: Item Basis for determining portfolio Method Aging portfolio Other receivables with similar With reference to historical credit loss experience, combined with current credit risk characteristics by conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions, the expected credit loss is aging calculated through the default risk exposure and the credit loss rate in the next 12 months or the entire duration 16. Contractual assets 17. Inventories (1) Classification of inventories, valuation method for issuance, inventory system and amortization method of low-value consumables and packages 1) Classification of inventories Inventories refer to the finished products or commodities held for sale by the Company in the course of its daily activities, the products being in the process of production, and the materials and supplies consumed in the process of production or provision of labor services, etc. The Company classifies inventories into raw materials, turnover materials, work-in-process products, self-made semi-finished products, finished products (inventory goods), issued goods, etc. 2) Valuation method for issuance of inventories When the inventories are acquired, it is initially measured at cost, including purchase cost, processing cost and other costs. When the inventories are delivered, it shall be valued by the first-in, first-out method and weighted average method at the end of the month. 3) Inventory system A perpetual inventory system is adopted. 4) Amortization method of low-value consumables and packages A. Low-value consumables are amortized by the one-off writing-off method. B. Packages are amortized by the one-off writing-off method. C. Other turnover materials are amortized by the one-off writing-off method. (2) recognition audit and provision method for provision for inventory impairment Provision for inventory impairment is recognized or adjusted at the lower of costs and the net realizable value after conducting a thorough check of inventories at the end of the year. For inventories of goods directly used for sale, such as finished goods, merchandise inventories and materials for sale, in the normal production and operation process, the net realizable value is determined by the amount of the estimated selling price of the inventory less the estimated sales cost and relevant taxes and fees; for material inventories that need to be processed, in the normal production and operation process, the net realizable value is determined by the amount of the estimated selling price of finished products produced less the estimated cost to be occurred at the time of completion, the estimated selling expenses and related taxes; for inventories held for the execution of sales contracts or labor contracts, the net realizable value is calculated on the basis of the contract price, and if the quantity of inventories held is more than the quantity specified in sales contracts, the net realizable value of excess inventories is calculated based on the general sales price. At the end of the year, inventory valuation allowance is accrued according to individual inventory items; but for a large number of inventories with lower unit prices, inventory valuation allowance is accrued according to inventory category; for inventories related to the product series produced and sold in the same region with the same or similar end use or purpose, and that is difficult to be measured separately from other items, inventory valuation allowance is accrued combined with other items. If the influencing factors of the write-down of inventory value have disappeared, the amount written-down is recovered and reversed to the amount of inventory valuation allowance already accrued, and the amount reversed is included in the current profit and loss. 18. Held-for-sales assets 19. Debt investment 20. Other debt investment 21. Long-term receivables 22. Long-term equity investment (1) Recognition of initial investment cost 144 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report 1) For the long-term equity investment formed by the business combination, the specific accounting policies are detailed in “(6). Accounting treatments for business combination under common control and not under common control” in this section. 2) Long-term equity investment acquired by other means For long-term equity investment acquired by cash payment, the actual acquisition price is recognized as initial investment cost. The initial investment cost includes expenses, taxes and other necessary expenses directly related to the acquisition of the long-term equity investment. For a long-term equity investment obtained by issuing equity securities, the initial investment cost shall be the fair value of the equity securities issued. Transaction costs incurred in the issuance or acquisition of one’s own equity instruments those can be directly attributable to the equity transaction shall be deducted from the equity. Provided that the non-monetary asset exchange contains commercial substance and the fair value of the assets received or assets surrendered can be reliably measured, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment received with non-monetary assets is determined based on the fair value of the assets surrendered, except that there is conclusive evidence indicates that the fair value of assets received is more reliable. For non-monetary asset exchange that do not satisfy the above condition, the book value of assets surrendered and related taxes and fees payable are recognized as the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment. The initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment acquired by debt restructuring is determined on the basis of fair value. (2) Subsequent measurement and recognition of related profit and loss 1) Cost method The Company can use the cost method to calculate the long-term equity investment controlled by the invested entity, price it according to the initial investment cost, and increase or recoup the cost of investment on adjusting a long-term equity investment. Except for the declared but undistributed cash dividends or profits included in the actual payment or consideration when the investment is obtained, the Company shall recognize the cash dividends or profits declared to be distributed by the invested entity as current investment income. 2) Equity method The Company adopts equity method for accounting of long-term equity investments in associates and joint ventures. For the equity investment in associates in which part of it is held indirectly through venture capital institutions, mutual funds, trust companies or similar entities including investment-linked insurance funds, it shall be measured at fair value and its changes shall be recorded into profits and losses. For the balance that the initial investment cost of long-term equity investments is bigger than the fair value shares of invested units’ distinguished net assets which shall be enjoyed by the Company, the Company will not adjust the initial investment cost of long-term equity investments; for the balance that the initial investment cost is smaller than the fair value shares of invested units’ distinguished net assets which shall be enjoyed by the Company, it shall be included in the current profit and loss. After the Company obtains long-term equity investment, it shall recognize investment income and other comprehensive income respectively according to its share of the net profit or loss realized by the invested entity and other comprehensive income, and adjust the book value of long- term equity investment at the same time. In addition, the part to be enjoyed shall be calculated according to the profit or cash dividend declared by the invested entity to be distributed, and the book value of long-term equity investment shall be reduced accordingly. For other changes in owners’ equity other than net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution of the invested entity, the book value of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted and recorded into owners’ equity. When confirming the shares of invested units’ net gain or loss to be enjoyed, the Company will adjust and confirm the invested units’ net profit based on the fair value of the invested units’ distinguishable assets when investments are obtained. For the gain or loss on the non-realized internal transactions between the Company and associates, joint ventures, the part attributing to the Company will be calculated as per the proportion to be enjoyed, will be written down, and on this basis, the investment profit and loss will be confirmed. The Company recognizes that the loss suffered by the invested unit should be dealt with in the following order: first, reduce the book value of long-term equity investments. Secondly, if the book value of long-term equity investments is not sufficient to offset, the book value of other long-term equity that substantially constitute the net investment in the invested entity shall be used to continue to recognize the investment loss and offset the book value of long-term receivables. Finally, after the above treatment, according to the investment contract or agreement, the enterprise still assumes the additional obligations, and it will confirm the provisions according to the expected obligations and shall be included in the current investment losses. If the investee makes profits in the future, the Company shall, after deducting the unrecognized loss share, deal with it in the reverse order, write down the book balance of the confirmed provisions, recover other long-term equity that substantially constitute the net investment to the investee and the book value of long-term equity investments, and resume the recognition of investment income. (3) Transformation of accounting method of long-term equity investments 1) Transfer of fair value measurement to equity method The equity investment originally held by the Company that does not have control, joint control or significant influence on the investee and is subject to accounting treatment according to the recognition and measurement standards of financial instruments can exert significant influence on the investee or implement joint control but does not constitute control due to additional investment and other reasons, the sum of the fair value of the originally held equity investment plus the newly increased investment cost determined in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments shall be regarded as the initial investment cost calculated according to the equity method. The initial investment cost calculated by the equity method is less than the difference between the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the investee on the additional investment date calculated and determined according to the new shareholding ratio after the additional investment, the book value of long-term equity investments is adjusted and included in the non-operating revenue of the current period. 2) Transfer of fair value measurement or equity method to cost method The equity investment originally held by the Company that does not have control, joint control or significant impact on the investee and is subject to accounting treatment in accordance with the recognition and measurement standards of financial 145 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report instruments, or the long-term equity originally held by the Company in associates and joint ventures: If the investee under different control can be controlled due to additional investment and other reasons, when preparing individual financial statements, the book value of equity investment originally held plus new investment cost shall be taken as the initial investment cost calculated by cost method instead. The other comprehensive income, which is recognized as equity investment held before the purchase date, is accounted for by the equity method. When disposing the investment, it adopts the same basis as the relevant assets or liabilities directly disposed of by the invested entity for accounting treatment. If the equity investment held before the acquisition date is accounted for in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments, the changes in the accumulated fair value originally included in other comprehensive income are transferred to the current profit and loss when the cost method is used for accounting. 3) Transfer of equity method to fair value measurement If the Company loses joint control or significant impact on the invested entity due to disposal of part of equity investment, the remaining equity after disposal shall be accounted according to Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments, and the difference between the fair value and book value on the date of loss of joint control or significant impact shall be included in the current profit and loss. The other comprehensive income of the original equity investment recognized due to the use of equity method shall be accounted on the same basis as the invested unit’s direct disposal of relevant assets or liabilities when the equity method is terminated. 4) Transfer of cost method to equity method If the Company loses the control over the investee due to the disposal of part of the equity investment and other reasons, when preparing individual financial statements, if the residual equity after disposal can exercise joint control or exert significant influence on the investee, the equity method shall be used for accounting instead, and the residual equity shall be deemed to be adjusted by the equity method when it is obtained. 5) Transfer of cost method to fair value measurement If the Company loses control over the investee due to the disposal of part of equity investment and other reasons, when preparing individual financial statements, if the residual equity after disposal cannot exercise joint control or exert significant influence on the investee, the accounting treatment shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments. The difference between the fair value and the book value on the date of loss of control is included in the current profit and loss. (4) Disposal of Long-Term Equity Investments For the disposal of long-term equity investments, the difference between the book value and the actually obtained price shall be included in the current profit and loss. Long-term equity investments accounted by the equity method shall be disposed on the same basis as the investee’s direct disposal of relevant assets or liabilities, and the part originally included in other comprehensive income shall be accounted according to the corresponding proportion. If the terms, conditions and economic impact of the disposal of various transactions of equity investment in subsidiaries meet one or more of the following conditions, multiple transactions shall be accounted as a package deal: 1) These transactions are made simultaneously or with consideration of influence on each other; 2) These transactions can only achieve a complete business outcome when treated as a whole; 3) The occurrence of a transaction depends on the occurrence of at least one of the other transactions; 4) A transaction is uneconomical when treated alone, but is economical when considered together with other. If the control over the original subsidiary company is lost due to the disposal of part of equity investment or other reasons, and it does not belong to a package deal, the relevant accounting treatment shall be made by distinguishing individual financial statements and consolidated financial statements: 1) In individual financial statements, for the equity disposed, the difference between the book value and the actually obtained price is included in the current profit and loss. If the residual equity after disposal can exercise joint control or exert significant influence on the investee, it shall be accounted by equity method, and the residual equity shall be deemed as adjusted by equity method when it is acquired; If the residual equity after disposal cannot exercise joint control or exert significant influence on the investee, it shall be accounted in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments, and the difference between the fair value and book value on the date of loss of control shall be included in the current profit and loss. 2) In the consolidated financial statements, for the difference between the disposal price and the corresponding share of net assets of the subsidiary calculated continuously from the purchase date or the combination date for each transaction before the loss of control over the subsidiary, the capital reserve (share capital premium) shall be adjusted. If the capital reserve is insufficient to offset, the retained earnings shall be adjusted; if the control right over the subsidiary is lost, the remaining equity shall be remeasured according to its fair value on the date of losing the control right. The difference between the sum of the consideration obtained from the disposal of equity and the fair value of the remaining equity minus the share of the net assets of the original subsidiary calculated continuously from the purchase date calculated according to the original shareholding ratio shall be included in the investment income of the current period when the control right is lost, and goodwill shall be offset at the same time. Other comprehensive income related to the equity investment of the original subsidiary will be converted into the current investment income when the control right is lost. If all transactions from disposal of equity investment in subsidiaries to loss of control belong to a package deal, each transaction shall be treated as a transaction for disposal of equity investment in subsidiaries and loss of control, and relevant accounting treatment shall be conducted according to individual financial statements and consolidated financial statements: 146 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report 1) In individual financial statements, the difference between each disposal price and the long-term equity investment book value corresponding to the disposed equity before the loss of control right is recognized as other comprehensive income, which is transferred to the loss and profit of the current period when the control right is lost. 2) In the consolidated financial statements, the difference between each disposal price and the share of the subsidiary’s net assets corresponding to the disposal investment before the loss of the control right is recognized as other comprehensive income, which is transferred into the current profit and loss when the control right is lost. (5) Judgment for joint control and significant impact If the Company controls an arrangement collectively with other participants in accordance with relevant agreements, and the activity decision-making that has a significant impact on the return of the arrangement needs to exist after the consensus of the participants sharing the control right, it is deemed that the Company and other participants jointly control an arrangement, which is a joint venture arrangement. When the joint venture arrangement is reached by a single body, the individual entity shall be judged as a joint venture and the equity method shall be used for accounting when the Company has the right to enjoy the net assets of the individual entity according to the relevant agreement. If it is judged that the Company does not have the right to the net assets of the individual subject according to the relevant agreement, the individual subject shall be regarded as the joint operation, the Company shall recognize the items related to the share of interests of the joint operation, and carry out accounting treatment in accordance with the provisions of the relevant accounting standards for business enterprises. Significant influence means that the investor has the right to participate in the decision-making of the financial and operational policies of the investee, but cannot control or jointly control the formulation of these policies with other parties. The Company judges to have a significant impact on the investee through one or more of the following circumstances and comprehensive consideration of all facts and circumstances: 1) having a representative on the board of directors or similar authority of the investee; 2) participate in the financial and operational policy-making process of the investee; 3) there are significant transactions with the investee; 4) dispatch management personnel to the investee; and 5) provide key technical data to the investee. 23. Investment properties Measuring mode of investment properties Measured at cost Depreciation or amortization method The Company adopts the cost model for subsequent measurement of investment property. Depreciation or amortization is accrued on buildings and land use rights according to the estimated service life and net residual value rate. The estimated service life, net residual value rate and annual depreciation (amortization) rate of investment properties are listed as follows: Type The estimated service life (Year) The estimated net residual Annual depreciation value rate (%) (amortization) rate (%) Land use rights Service life of land use rights 1/Service life*100 Property and plant 20 5-10 4.50-4.75 See 30 "Impairment of long-term assets" for methods of testing and providing for impairment of investment properties. 24. Fixed assets (1) Recognition criteria Fixed assets mean tangible assets held for the purpose of producing goods, rendering of services, leases or operation management, whose service life is more than one fiscal year. Fixed assets satisfying the following conditions are recognized: 1) The economic benefits associated with the fixed assets are likely to flow into the enterprise; 2) The cost of the fixed asset can be measured in a reliable way. (2) Depreciation method Type Depreciation method Depreciation life (year) Rate of residual value (%) Annual depreciation rate (%) Property and plant Straight-line method 20 5-10 4.50-4.75 Machinery and equipment Straight-line method 6-13 5-10 6.92-15.83 Transportation equipment Straight-line method 5 5-10 18.00-19.00 Electronic equipment Straight-line method 5 5-10 18.00-19.00 Office equipment Straight-line method 5 5-10 18.00-19.00 Other equipment Straight-line method 5 5-10 18.00-19.00 The Company shall comply with the disclosure requirements in the chemical industry set forth in the Self-Disciplinary Regulatory Guidelines for Companies Listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange No. 3 – Industry Information Disclosure. 147 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report 25. Construction in progress The Company shall comply with the disclosure requirements in the chemical industry set forth in the Self- Disciplinary Regulatory Guidelines for Companies Listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange No. 3 – Industry Information Disclosure. Construction in progress built by the Company is valued at the actual cost, which consists of the necessary expenses incurred before the construction of the asset is reaches the expected usable status, including engineering materials costs, labor costs, related taxes and fees, borrowing costs that should be capitalized and indirect costs that should be apportioned. For the construction in progress project, all expenses incurred before the construction of the asset reaches the expected serviceable state shall be taken as the entry value of fixed assets. If the construction in progress has reached the expected serviceable condition, but the final accounts of completion have not yet been handled, from the date of reaching the expected serviceable condition, it shall be transferred to fixed assets according to the estimated value according to the project budget, cost or actual cost of the project, and the depreciation of fixed assets shall be accrued according to the Company’s fixed assets depreciation policy. The original estimated value shall be adjusted according to the actual cost after the completion of final accounts, but the amount of depreciation that has been accrued shall not be adjusted. See "(30) Impairment of long-term assets" in this section for methods of testing and providing for impairment of construction in progress. 26. Borrowing costs (1) Recognition principles of capitalization of borrowing costs Borrowing costs incurred by the Company that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, shall be capitalized and included in the cost of relevant assets. Other borrowing costs shall be recognized as expenses according to the amount incurred and included in the profits or losses in the current period. Assets eligible for capitalization refer to fixed assets, investment properties, inventory and other assets that are expected to be usable or salable after a considerable period of purchase and construction or production activities. Capitalization shall commence when: 1) Expenditures are being incurred, which comprise disbursements incurred in the form of payments of cash, transfer of non-monetary assets or assumption of interest-bearing debts; 2) Borrowing costs are being incurred, and; 3) Purchase, construction or manufacturing activities that are necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use or sale are in progress. (2) Capitalization period for borrowing costs Capitalization period refers to the period from commencement of capitalization of borrowing costs to its cessation; period of suspension for capitalization is excluded. Capitalization of borrowing costs shall cease when the qualifying asset under acquisition, construction or production gets ready for intended use or sale. Where part of the project of acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets has been completed respectively and can be put into use individually, capitalization of borrowing costs of that part should cease. Where each part of assets purchased, constructed or manufactured has been completed separately but can be used or sold only after all parts have been completed, capitalization of borrowing costs shall cease at the completion of all parts of the said assets. (3) Period of suspension for capitalization Capitalization of borrowing costs shall be suspended during periods in which purchase, construction or manufacturing of assets eligible for capitalization is interrupted abnormally, and the interruption is for a continuous period of more than 3 months; if the interruption is the necessary procedure to prepare the assets purchased, constructed or manufactured assets eligible for capitalization for their intended use or sale, the borrowing costs shall continue to be capitalized. Borrowing costs incurred during the interruption shall be recognized in current profit or loss, and shall continue to be capitalized when purchase, construction or manufacturing of the relevant assets resumes. (4) Measurement of capitalized amounts of borrowing costs Interest charges on special borrowings (excluding interest income on unused borrowings deposited in the bank, or investment income on temporary investment) and their ancillary expenses shall be capitalized before the assets purchased, constructed or produced that meet the capitalization conditions are ready for intended use or sale. The amount of capitalized interest on general borrowings is calculated by the weighted average of the excess portion of the accumulative asset expenditures over the special borrowings multiplied by the capitalization rate of general borrowings. The capitalization rate is determined based on the weighted average interest rate of general borrowings. Where there are discounts or premiums on borrowings, the amounts of interest for each accounting period shall be adjusted taking account of amortizable discount or premium amounts for the period by effective interest method. 27. Right-of-use assets The Company initially measures the right-of-use assets on the basis of the cost, which includes: (1) The amount of initial measurement of lease liabilities; 148 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report (2) For the lease payment paid on or before the beginning of the lease term, if there is lease incentive plan, the relevant amount of lease incentive enjoyed shall be deducted; (3) The initial direct costs incurred by the company; (4) The costs expected to be incurred by the Company to dismantle or remove the leased assets, restore the site where the leased assets are located or restore the leased assets to the state agreed in the lease terms (excluding the costs incurred for the production of inventories). After the beginning date of the lease term, the Company adopts the cost model for subsequent measurement of the right-of-use assets. If it can be reasonably determined that the ownership of the leased asset is obtained at the expiration of the lease term, the Company shall accrue depreciation within the remaining service life of the leased asset. If it is impossible to reasonably determine that the ownership of the leased asset can be obtained at the expiration of the lease term, the Company shall accrue depreciation within the shorter term between the lease term and the remaining service life of the leased asset. For the right-of-use assets with impairment provision, the depreciation shall be accrued on the basis of the book value after deducting the impairment provision in the future with reference to the above principles. In accordance with the relevant provisions of Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 8 - Asset Impairment, the Company determines whether the right-of-use assets have been impaired and accounts for the identified impairment losses. Please refer to “24. Impairment of long-term assets” in the section for details. 28. Biological assets 29. Oil and gas assets 30. Intangible assets (1) The service life and its determination basis, estimated situation, amortization method or review procedures The Company determines the useful life of intangible assets on acquisition, which are classified as intangible assets with limited useful life and indefinite useful life. 1) Intangible assets with limited useful lives For the intangible assets with limited service life, they are amortized by the straight-line method within the period of bringing economic benefits to the enterprise. The estimated life and basis of intangible assets with limited service life are as follows: Item Expected service life Basis for estimates Software 10 years Expected service life Land use rights 50 years Certificate of land using right Patent rights 10 years Benefit period Non-proprietary technology 10 years Benefit period The service life of the intangible assets with limited service life and its amortization method shall be reviewed at the end of each period. Adjustments will be made if necessary. 2) Intangible assets with uncertain useful lives Intangible assets with unforeseeable economic benefits to the Company are deemed to be intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. Intangibles assets with uncertain useful lives are reviewed for remaining useful lives at each period end. If there is evidence to suggest that the period in which the intangible asset will bring economic benefits to the enterprise is foreseeable, the Company will estimate its useful life and amortize it according to the amortization policy for intangible assets with limited useful life. See "30. Impairment of long-term assets" in this section for methods of testing and providing for impairment of intangibles assets. (2) Sweep scope for R&D expenses and relevant accounting treatments 1) Criteria for classification of research phase and development phase of internal R&D projects of the Company Research phase: the phase in which original and planned investigation and research are carried out with purpose of gaining and understanding new scientific or technical knowledge. Development phase: before commercial production and utilization, the phase in which the research achievement or other knowledge is applied to a particular project or design in order to produce new or substantially improved materials, devices, products, etc. The expenditure of internal R&D projects incurred during research phase is recognized in profit or loss when incurred. 2) Expenditures arising from development phase on internal R&D projects must be capitalized if the Company can satisfy all of the following criteria: A. There is technical feasibility of completing the intangible assets (so that they will be available for use or sale); B. There is an intention to complete and use or sell the assets; C. how the intangible asset will generate economic benefits including there is evidence that the products produced using the intangible asset has a market or the intangible asset itself has a market; if the intangible asset is for internal use, there is evidence that there exists usage for the intangible asset; D. There are adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and the ability to use or sell the intangible assets; E. The expenditure attributable to the development phase of intangible assets can be reliably measured. 149 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report If the expenditure at the development phase does not meet the above condition, it shall be charged to current profits or losses when occurring. If it is not possible to distinguish between research phase expenditures and development phase expenditures, all research and development expenditures incurred are recognized in the current profits and losses. The cost of intangible assets resulting from internal development activities includes only the total amount of expenditure incurred from the point at which the capitalization condition is met until the intangible asset reaches its intended use. No adjustment is made to the expenditure that has been expensed to profit or loss before the capitalization condition is met for the same intangible asset in the development process. 31. Impairment of long-term assets At each balance sheet date, the Company inspects whether there are signs of possible impairment of long-term equity investments, investment properties measured using the cost method, fixed assets, construction in progress and intangible assets with definite useful lives. If there is any sign of impairment of a long-term asset, the recoverable amount shall be estimated on the basis of a single asset; if it is difficult to estimate the recoverable amount of a single asset, the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the asset belongs shall be determined. The recoverable amount of an asset is estimated based on the higher of the net amount of its fair value less disposal expenses and the present value of the expected future cash flow of the asset. If the measurement results of the recoverable amount show that the recoverable amount of the long-term asset is lower than its book value, the book value of the long-term asset shall be written down to the recoverable amount, and the written-down amount shall be recognized as the impairment loss of the asset, which shall be recorded into the current profit and loss, and the corresponding asset impairment provision shall be drawn at the same time. Once the impairment loss of assets is recognized, it shall not be reversed in the future accounting period. After the asset impairment loss is recognized, the depreciation or amortization expenses of the impaired asset shall be adjusted accordingly in the future period, so that the adjusted asset book value (deducting the estimated net residual value) will be systematically apportioned over the remaining service life of the asset. For goodwill and intangible assets with uncertain service life due to business combination, no matter whether there is any sign of impairment or not, impairment test shall be carried out every year. In the impairment test of goodwill, the book value of goodwill would be apportioned to asset group or portfolio of asset group expected to benefit from the synergy effect of a business combination. When carrying out an impairment test on the relevant asset group or portfolio of asset group containing goodwill, if there is a sign of impairment on the asset group or portfolio of asset group related to the goodwill, the Company first calculates the recoverable amount after testing the asset group or portfolio of asset group which does not contain the goodwill for impairment, and then compares it with the related book value to recognize the corresponding impairment loss. Next, the Company conducts an impairment test on the asset group or portfolio of asset group which contains the goodwill and compares the book value of the related asset group or portfolio of asset group (book value includes the share of goodwill) with the recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount of the related asset group or portfolio of asset group is lower than the book value, the Company will recognize the impairment loss of goodwill. 32. Long-term deferred expenses (1) Amortization method Long-term deferred expenses refer to expenses that have already been spent by the Company, but shall be apportioned in the current period and the future periods and the benefit period is over 1 year. Long-term prepaid expenses are amortized using the straight-line method over the period of projected earnings. (2) Amortization period Type Amortization period Notes Technical services fee Agreed in the contract Renovation fee 3-5 years Power Grid access fee 10 years Software system implementation fee 5 years Repair and maintenance fee 2-3 years 33. Contractual liabilities The Company recognizes as a contractual liability the portion of its obligation to transfer commodities to a customer for which the customer consideration has been received or is receivable. 34. Employee compensation (1) Accounting treatment of short-term employee compensation During the accounting period when employees provide services, the Company recognizes the short-term benefits payable as a liability and includes the same in the relevant asset costs and expenses on the basis of the beneficiaries of the services provided by employees. 150 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report (2) Accounting treatment for post-employment benefits The post-employment benefit plans of the Company are classified as defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. The defined contribution plan for post-employment benefits is mainly to participate in the social basic endowment insurance, unemployment insurance, etc., organized and implemented by local labor and social security institutions. During the accounting period when employees provide services to the Company, the amount of deposit payable calculated according to the defined deposit plan shall be recognized as liabilities and included in the current profit and loss or related asset costs. After making regular payments for the aforementioned amounts in accordance with national standards and pension plans, the Company will no longer have any additional payment obligations. (3) Accounting treatment for termination benefits Termination benefits refer to the compensation paid to an employee when the Company terminates the labor relationship with an employee before the labor contract expires, or offers compensation for encouraging the employee to accept the redundancies voluntarily. The liabilities arising from the termination of labor relations with the employee are determined, and also included in the current profit and loss, at the time when the Company cannot unilaterally withdraw the termination of the labor relationship plan or redundancies proposal, or the time when the cost associated with restructuring involving payment of termination benefits is confirmed, whichever is earlier. The Company provides early retirement benefits to employees who accept internal retirement arrangements. Early retirement welfare refers to the wages paid to the employees who fail to reach the retirement age stipulated by the state and voluntarily quit their jobs with the approval of the Company’s management and the social insurance premiums paid for them. The Company shall pay the internal retirement benefits to the early retired employees from the commencement date of the internal retirement arrangement to the date when the employees reach the normal retirement age. For the early retirement welfare, the Company shall carry out accounting treatment according to the termination benefits. When the relevant recognition conditions of the termination benefits are met, the wages and social insurance premiums to be paid to the early retired employees from the date when the employees stop providing services to the normal retirement date shall be recognized as liabilities and included in the current profit and loss on a lump-sum basis. The difference caused by the change of actuarial assumption and the adjustment of welfare standard of early retirement welfare shall be included in the current profit and loss when it occurs. (4) Accounting treatment method for other long-term employee benefits 35. Estimated Liabilities (1) Recognition criteria of estimated liabilities When an obligation related to a contingency is a current obligation undertaken by the company, and the fulfillment of such obligation is likely to result in an outflow of economic benefits, and the amount of such obligation can be reliably measured, it is recognized as an estimated liability. (2) Measurement of estimated liabilities The estimated liabilities of the Company are initially measured on the basis of the best estimate of the expenditure required to perform the relevant current obligations. When determining the best estimate, the Company considers factors such as risks, uncertainties and time value of money related to contingent events. Where the time value of money has a significant impact, the best estimate is determined by discounting the relevant future cash outflows. The best estimates are handled as follows: In case that there is a continuous range (or interval) of required expenditures, within which the possibility of occurrence of various results is the same, the best estimate is determined by the average of the middle value of the range, that is, the average of the upper and lower limits. In case that there is no continuous range (or interval) of required expenditures, or there is a continuous range but the possibility of various results in the range is different, if the contingency involves a single item, the best estimate should be determined based on the most probable amount; if a contingency involves multiple items, the best estimate is determined based on various possible outcomes and associated probabilities. If all or part of the expenses required by the Company to settle the provisions are expected to be compensated by a third party, the compensation amount is separately recognized as an asset when it is basically confirmed to be received, and the recognized compensation amount should not exceed the book value of estimated liabilities. 36. Lease liability The Company initially measures the lease liability according to the present value of the lease payments that have not been paid on the beginning of the lease period. When calculating the present value of the lease payment, the Company uses the interest rate implicit in the lease as the discount rate; if the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be determined, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used as the discount rate. Lease payments include: (1) The fixed payment amount and the actual fixed payment amount after deducting the leasing incentive related amount; (2) Variable lease payments depending on index or ratio; (3) When the Company reasonably determines that the option will be exercised, the lease payment includes the exercise price of the purchase option; (4) When the lease term reflects that the Company will exercise the option to terminate the lease, the lease payment includes the amount to be paid for the exercise of the option to terminate the lease; (5) The expected payment due to the residual value of the guarantee provided by the Company. 151 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report The Company calculates the interest expense of the lease liability in each period of the lease term at a fixed discount rate, and include it in the current profit and loss or related asset costs. Variable lease payments that are not included in the measurement of lease liabilities should be included in current profit or loss or related asset costs when they actually occur. 37. Share-based payments (1) Categories of share-based payments The share-based payment of the Company is divided into equity-settled share-based payment and cash-settled share-based payment. (2) Determination method of fair value of equity instruments For the granted equity instruments such as options with active market, their fair value shall be determined according to the quoted price in the active market. For the granted equity instruments without active market, the option pricing model is used to determine their fair value. The following factors are considered in the option pricing model: (1) the exercise price of the option; (2) the validity period of the option; (3) the current price of the target share; (4) the expected volatility of the share price; (5) the expected dividend of the share; (6) the risk-free interest rate. When determining the fair value of the equity instrument on the grant date, the impact of market conditions and non-vesting conditions specified in the share-based payment agreement shall be considered. If there are non-vesting conditions for share-based payment, as long as the employees or other parties meet all non-market conditions (such as service term, etc.) in all of the vesting conditions, the corresponding cost of the services received shall be recognized. (3) Basis for determining the best estimate of exercisable equity instruments At each balance sheet date in the vesting period, the Company would make best estimate in accordance with the newly acquired information such as changes in the number of employees with exercisable rights, and amend the number of estimated exercisable equity instruments. On the exercise date, the ultimate estimated number of exercisable equity instruments coincides with the actual number. (4) Accounting treatment 1) Accounting treatment for equity-settled and cash-settled share-based payment The equity-settled share-based payment shall be measured at the fair value of the equity instrument granted to the employee. If the right is exercisable immediately after the grant, the relevant cost or expense shall be recorded in accordance with the fair value of the equity instrument on the grant date, and the capital reserve shall be increased accordingly. If the right is not exercisable until the service within the waiting period is completed or the performance conditions are met, on each balance sheet date within the waiting period, the services acquired in the current period shall be included into relevant costs or expenses and capital reserves based on the best estimate of the number of the equity instruments of the exercisable rights and based on the fair value on the grant date of the equity instruments. No adjustments shall be made after the vesting date for the related costs or expenses recognized and total owners’ equity. The cash-settled share-based payment is measured at the fair value of the liabilities borne by the Company and calculated based on shares or other equity instruments. Where the right is feasible immediately after the grant, the fair value of the liabilities borne by the Company shall be included into the relevant costs or expenses s at the fair value of the liabilities assumed by the Company on the grant date, and the liabilities shall be increased accordingly. Where the share-based payment is not exercisable until the service in the vesting period is completed or specified performance conditions are met, then at each balance sheet date within the vesting period, the service obtained in the current period shall be included in cost or expenses and in liabilities at the fair value of the Company’s liabilities based on the best estimates of the quantity of exercisable equity instruments made by the Company. At each balance sheet date and settlement date before relevant liabilities are settled, the fair value of the liabilities is remeasured and the changes are recognized in profit or loss. 2) Accounting treatment for modification of terms and conditions of share-based payment For the unfavorable modifications, the Company will continue to account for the services received as if the changes have never occurred. For favorable modifications, the Company will handle them in accordance with the following regulations: If the modifications increase the fair value of the equity instruments granted, the enterprise should recognize the increase in services received in accordance with the increase in the fair value of the equity instruments. If the modification occurs within the waiting period, when recognizing the fair value of services received between the date of the modification and the exercisable date after the modification, both the service amount determined based on the fair value of the original equity instrument on the grant date over the remaining original waiting period and the increase in the fair value of the equity instrument shall be included. If the modification occurs after the exercise date, the increase in fair value of the equity instrument shall be recognized immediately. If the equity-settled share-based payment agreement requires employees to complete an extended period of service before obtaining the modified equity instrument, the enterprise should recognize the increase of the fair value of the equity instrument throughout the waiting period. If the modification increases the number of equity instruments granted, the fair value of the increased equity instruments is recognized as an increase in services received. If the modification occurs during the waiting period, when recognizing the fair value of services received from the date of the modification to the exercisable date of the increased equity instruments, both the service amount determined based on the fair value of the original equity instruments on the grant date during the remaining original waiting period and the increase in the fair value of the equity instruments shall be included. 152 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report If the enterprise modifies the exercise conditions in favor the employees, such as shortening the waiting period, changing or canceling the performance conditions (rather than market conditions), the enterprise should consider the revised exercise conditions when dealing with the exercise conditions. 3) Accounting treatment for share-based payment cancelations If the granted equity instrument is cancelled in the waiting period, the Company will treat the cancellation of the granted equity instrument as accelerated exercise, and the amount to be recognized in the remaining waiting period will be included in the current profit and loss immediately, and capital reserve will be recognized at the same time. If the employee or other parties can choose to meet the non-vesting conditions but fail to meet them within the waiting period, the Company will treat them as the cancellation of the granted equity instrument. 38. Preferred stock, perpetual bonds and other financial instruments 39. Revenue Disclosure of accounting policies for recognition and measurement of revenue by business type The timing of revenue recognition of the Company for major products respectively are as follows: (1) For BOPP cigarette films, cigarette labels, aseptic packaging products, when the products are delivered to the locations designated by the customers, and the delivery is completed and the evidence of transfer of control of the goods is obtained from the customers. (2) For BOPP flat films and lithium battery separators, when the delivery has been completed according to the method agreed by the customers, and the evidence of transfer of control of goods is obtained from the customers or the carriers designated by the customers. (3) For special paper products, the products are delivered to the locations designated by the customers, the delivery is completed and the evidence of conforming requirements from customers is obtained. The Company has fulfilled its obligations under the contract, that is, when the customer acquires control of the relevant goods or services, the revenue is recognized according to the transaction price apportioned to the performance obligations. Performance obligation refers to the commitment of the Company in the contract to assign commodities or services that can be clearly distinguished to the customer. Obtaining the control right of the related commodity means to be able to dominate the use of the commodity and obtain almost all the economic benefits from it. The Company shall evaluate the contract on the commencement date of the contract, identify the individual performance obligations contained in the contract, and determine whether each individual performance obligation shall be performed within a certain period of time or at a certain point in time. If one of the following conditions is satisfied, the performance obligation shall be performed within a certain period of time, and the Company shall recognize the income within a certain period of time according to the performance progress of the Company: (1) the client shall obtain and consume the economic benefits brought by the performance of the Company as the Company performs the contract; (2) the customer is able to control the goods under construction during the performance of the Company; and (3) the products produced by the Company during the performance of the contract are of irreplaceable use, and the Company is entitled to collect payment for the part of the contract which has been completed so far during the whole term of the contract. Otherwise, the Company recognizes revenue at the time point when the customer acquires control of the relevant goods or services. For the performance obligations performed during a certain period of time, the Company will use the output/input method to determine the appropriate performance schedule based on the nature of the goods and services. The output method determines the performance schedule according to the value to the customer of the goods that have been transferred to the customer (the input method determines the performance schedule according to the Company’s input to fulfill the performance obligation). If the performance schedule cannot be reasonably determined and the Company is expected to be compensated for the costs already incurred, the revenue shall be recognized in accordance with the amount of costs already incurred until the performance progress can be reasonably determined. Differences in recognition and measurement methods of revenue due to different business models for similar businesses The Company shall comply with the disclosure requirements in the chemical industry set forth in the Self-Disciplinary Regulatory Guidelines for Companies Listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange No. 3 – Industry Information Disclosure. (1) Contracts with sales return clauses For sales with sales return clauses, when the customer obtains the control right of the relevant goods, the revenue is recognized according to the amount of consideration expected to be entitled to receive due to the transfer of goods to the customer (i.e., excluding the amount expected to be refunded due to sales return), and the liabilities are recognized according to the amount expected to be refunded due to sales return. At the same time, the balance of the book value at the time of transfer of the goods expected to be returned after deducting the expected cost of recovering the goods (including the impairment of the value of the returned goods) shall be accounted for an asset. According to the book value of the transferred goods at the time of transfer, deduct the net carrying cost of the above-mentioned asset costs. (2) Contracts with quality assurance clauses For sales with quality assurance clauses, if the quality assurance provides a separate service to the customer other than ensuring that the goods or services sold meet the established standards, the quality assurance constitutes a single performance obligation. Otherwise, the Company will account for the quality assurance responsibility in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 13 – Contingencies. (3)Sales contracts with additional customer purchase options The additional purchase option of customers includes sales incentives, customer reward points, option of renewal, other discounts for future goods or services, etc. With respect to the additional purchase option with material rights provided to 153 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report customers, the Company regards it as a single performance obligation, and recognizes relevant revenue upon obtaining the control over relevant goods or services by the customers who exercise the purchase option in future or upon lapse of such option. If the separate selling price of the customer's additional purchase option cannot be directly observed, an estimate shall be made after comprehensively considering all relevant information such as the difference in discounts obtained by the customer upon exercise and non-exercise of the option and the possibility of the customer exercising the option. (4) Contracts for granting intellectual property licenses to customers Assess whether the intellectual property license constitutes a single performance obligation, and further determine whether it is performed within a certain period or at a certain point in time. If the Company grants an intellectual property license to a customer and agrees to collect royalties according to the actual sales or use of the customer, the revenue shall be recognized at the later of the following two points: the subsequent sales or use of the customer occurs; and the Company performs relevant performance obligations. (5) After-sales repurchase 1) Contracts with repurchase obligations due to forward arrangements with customers: in this case, the customer does not obtain control of the relevant goods at the time of sales, so they are accounted for accordingly as lease transactions or financing transactions. Where the repurchase price is lower than the original selling price, it shall be regarded as a lease transaction and accounted for in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises.; If the repurchase price is not lower than the original selling price, it shall be regarded as a financing transaction, and the financial liabilities shall be recognized when the customer's payment is received, and the difference between the payment and the repurchase price shall be recognized as interest expenses during the repurchase period. If the Company does not exercise the repurchase right when it expires, the financial liabilities shall be derecognized when the repurchase right expires, and the revenue shall be recognized at the same time. 2) Contracts with repurchase obligations incurred at the request of customers: if it is assessed that the customer has significant economic drivers, the after-sales repurchase shall be treated as a lease transaction or a financing transaction and accounted for in accordance with the provisions of 1) of this article; otherwise, it shall be treated as a sales transaction with sales return clauses. (6) Contracts that charge customers initial fees that do not need to be returned The initial fee charged to the customer at (or near) the commencement of the contract that is not refundable shall be included in the transaction price. If the Company assesses that the initial fee is related to the transfer of promised goods to the customer and the goods constitute a single performance obligation, the revenue shall be recognized according to the transaction price apportioned to the goods when the goods are transferred; If the initial fee is related to the transfer of promised goods to the customer but the goods do not constitute a single performance obligation when the single performance obligation containing the goods is performed, the revenue shall be recognized according to the transaction price apportioned to the single performance obligation; If the initial fee is not related to the transfer of the promised goods to the customer, the initial fee shall be recognized as the advance receipt for the goods to be transferred in the future and shall be recognized as revenue when the goods are transferred in the future. 40. Contract cost (1) Costs to fulfil a contract For the cost incurred for the fulfillment of a contract, if it does not fall within the scope of other accounting standards for business enterprises other than the revenue standards and meets all the following criteria, it shall be recognized as an asset from the costs incurred to fulfill a contract: 1) The cost is directly related to a current or to an anticipated contract, including direct labor, direct materials, manufacturing expenses (or similar expenses), costs clearly borne by the customer, and other costs incurred solely due to the contract; 2) The costs enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future. 3) The costs are expected to be recovered. The asset is reported in inventories or other non-current assets based on whether the amortization period exceeds one normal business cycle at the time of its initial recognition. (2) Costs to obtain a contract If the incremental cost incurred by the Company in obtaining the contract is expected to be recoverable, it shall be recognized as an asset of obtaining a contract. Incremental cost refers to the cost that the Company incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained, such as sales commission. If the amortization period does not exceed one year, it shall be included in the current profits and losses when it occurs. (3) Amortization of contract costs The above assets related to contract costs are amortized at the time of fulfilment of performance obligations or according to the fulfillment progress of performance obligations on the same basis as the recognition of revenue from goods or services related to the assets and included in current profits and losses. (4) Impairment of contract costs 154 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report If the book value of the above-mentioned assets related to the contract cost is higher than the difference between the residual consideration expected to be obtained by the Company due to the transfer of the goods related to the asset and the estimated cost to be incurred for the transfer of the related goods, the excess shall be provided for impairment and recognized as asset impairment loss. After the impairment provision is made, if the factors of impairment in the previous period change, making the difference between the above two items higher than the book value of the asset, the originally made asset impairment provision shall be reversed and included in the current profits and losses, but the book value of the reversed asset shall not exceed the book value of the asset on the reversal date assuming that no impairment provision is made. 41. Government grant (1) Type Government subsidies are transfers of monetary or non-monetary assets from the government to the Group at nil consideration. According to the subsidy targets stipulated in the relevant government documents, government subsidies are classified into government subsidies related to assets and government subsidies related to income. For government subsidies where the subsidy targets have not been specified in the government documents, the Company categorizes them into classified into government subsidies related to assets and government subsidies related to income according to the actual subsidy targets. For details of relevant basis of judgments, please refer to Note V “51. Deferred income”/“74. Non- operating income”. The government subsidies related to assets refer to the government subsidies obtained by the Company for purchasing and constructing or forming long-term assets in other ways. Government subsidies related to income refer to government subsidies other than those related to assets. (2) Recognition of government subsidies If there is evidence at the end of the period that the Company can meet the relevant conditions specified in the financial support policy and it is expected to receive the financial support funds, the government subsidy shall be recognized according to the receivable amount. Otherwise, government subsidies are recognized when they are actually received. If a government subsidy is a monetary asset, it is measured at the amount received or receivable. If a government subsidy is a non- monetary asset, it is measured at fair value. If the fair value cannot be obtained in a reliable way, it is measured at the nominal amount (RMB1). Government subsidies measured at nominal amounts are recognized directly in the current profit and loss. (3) Accounting treatment According to the essence of economic business, the Company determines whether the total amount method or the net amount method should be used for accounting treatment of a certain type of government subsidy business. Generally, the Company only selects one method for the same or similar government subsidy business, and consistently uses the method for the business. The government subsidies related to the assets shall be written off against the book value of the relevant assets or recognized as deferred income. If the government subsidy related to the asset is recognized as deferred income, it shall be recorded into the profit and loss in stages in accordance with a reasonable and systematic method during the service life of the asset built or purchased. If the government subsidy related to the income is used to compensate the relevant expenses or losses of the enterprise in the future period, it shall be recognized as deferred income and recorded into the current profit and loss, or write down the relevant costs during the period of recognition of the relevant expenses or losses; If it is used to compensate the related expenses or losses incurred by the enterprise, it shall be directly recorded into the current profit and loss or write down the relevant costs when obtained. The government subsidies related to the daily activities of the enterprise shall be included in other income or used to write off related costs and expenses; Government subsidies not related to the daily activities of the enterprise shall be included in the non-operating revenue and expenditure. Government subsidies related to the discount interest received from policy-related preferential loans offset the relevant borrowing costs; if the policy-based preferential interest rate loan provided by the lending bank is obtained, the borrowing amount actually received shall be taken as the entry value of the borrowings, and borrowing cost should be calculated using the preferential interest rate according to the loan principal and the policy. In case that a confirmed government subsidy is required to be returned, the book value of the asset is adjusted if the book value of relevant assets is offset at the initial recognition; if there is related deferred income, the book balance of deferred income should be offset, and the excess is included in the current profit and loss; in case of other circumstances, it is directly included in the current profit and loss. 42. Deferred income tax assets/Deferred income tax liabilities Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are calculated and recognized based on the differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts (temporary differences). On the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured at the applicable tax rate during the period when the asset is expected to be recovered or the liability is expected to be settled. (1) Basis for recognition of deferred income tax assets The Company recognizes the deferred tax assets generated by the deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is likely to obtain the taxable income that can be used to offset the deductible temporary differences, carry forward the deductible losses and tax credits in the following years. However, deferred tax assets arising from the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in transactions with the following characteristics shall not be recognized: 1) the transaction is not a business combination; and 2) the transaction does not affect the accounting profit or taxable income or deductible loss. 155 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report For the deductible temporary differences related to the investment of associated enterprises, if the following conditions are met at the same time, the corresponding deferred tax assets shall be confirmed: the temporary differences are likely to be reversed in the foreseeable future, and the taxable income used to deduct the deductible temporary differences is likely to be obtained in the future. (2) Basis for recognition of deferred income tax liabilities The Company recognizes the taxable temporary differences that should be paid but not paid in the current period and the previous period as deferred tax liabilities, excluding: 1) The temporary difference formed by the initial confirmation of goodwill; 2) The transaction or event not formed by business combination, and the occurrence of the transaction or event does not affect the accounting profit or the temporary difference formed by the taxable income (or deductible loss); 3) For the taxable temporary difference related to the investment in subsidiaries and associated enterprises, the time of reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and the temporary difference is unlikely to be reversed in the foreseeable future. (3) When the following conditions are met at the same time, the deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are presented at the net amount after offset 1) The enterprise has the legal right to settle the current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities with net amount; 2) The deferred income tax assets and the deferred income tax liabilities may be related to the income tax levied by the same tax office on the same or different taxpayer. In the latter case, the involved tax payers intend to settle the current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities with net amount, or obtain assets and pay off debts at the same time in each future period when the important deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are reversed. 43. Leases (1) Accounting treatment of the leases as the lessee At the commencement of the lease term, the Company recognizes the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases, except for short-term leases and low-value asset leases that apply simplified treatment. 1) Short-term lease and low-value asset lease A short-term lease is a lease that has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not include an option to purchase. Low-value asset lease refers to the lease with lower value when a single leased asset is a brand-new asset. The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases and low-value asset leases. 2) See Notes 27 and 36 in this section for the accounting policies of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. (2) Accounting treatment of the leases as the lessor 1) Classification of leases Leases are divided by the Company into finance leases and operating leases at the commencement of leases. Finance lease is a lease that has transferred in substance all the risks and rewards related to the ownership of an asset. The ownership of it may or may not eventually be transferred. Operating lease refers to a lease other than a financing lease. Where a lease satisfies one or more of the following criteria, the Company shall recognize it as a finance lease: A. The ownership of the leased asset is transferred to the lessee when the term of lease expires. B. The lessee has the option to buy the leased asset at a price which is expected to be far lower than the fair value of the leased asset at the date when the option becomes exercisable. C. Even if the ownership of the asset is not transferred, the lease term covers the major part of the use life of the leased asset. D. The present value of the minimum lease receipts on the lease beginning date amounts to substantially all of the fair value of the leased asset on the lease beginning date; E. The leased assets are of a specialized nature that only the lessee can use them without making major modifications. Where a lease satisfies one or more of the following criteria, the Company may also recognize it as a finance lease: A. If the lessee cancels the lease, the lessee shall bear the losses caused to the lessor by the cancellation of the lease. B. Gains or losses arising from fluctuations in the fair value of residual values of assets are attributable to the lessee. C. The lessee can continue the lease at a rent that is far below the market level until the next period. 2) Accounting treatment for finance leases On the date when lease starts, the Company recognizes the finance leases as the receivable of the financial lease which is finally derecognized as the finance leasing assets. When the finance lease receivables are initially measured, the sum of the unsecured residual value and the present value of the lease receivables that have not been received on the beginning date of the lease term discounted at the implicit interest rate of the lease shall be taken as the entry value of the finance lease receivables. Lease receipts include: A. The amount of fixed payment and actual fixed payment amount after deducting the relevant amount of lease incentive; B. Variable lease payments depending on index or ratio; C. When it is reasonably determined that the lessee will exercise the options, the received amount of lease includes the exercise price of the options; 156 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report D. When the lease term reflects that the lessee will exercise the option to terminate the lease, the lease collection includes the amount to be paid by the lessee to exercise the option to terminate the lease; E. The guaranteed residual value provided by the lessee, the party related to the lessee and the independent third party with the financial ability to perform the guarantee obligation to the lesser. The Company calculates and recognizes the interest income during each lease term according to the fixed interest rate implicit in lease, and the variable lease payment obtained but not included in the measurement of net lease investment is included in the current profits and losses when it actually arises. 3)Accounting treatment of operating leases The Company recognizes the lease receipts from operating leases as rental income by the straight-line method or other systematic and reasonable methods during each lease term; The incurred initial direct costs related to the operating lease shall be amortized over the lease term on the same basis as the recognition of rental income and included in the current profits and losses by stages; The variable lease payments obtained that are related to the operating lease but not included in the lease receipts are included in the current profits and losses when they actually arise. 44. Debt Restructuring (1) Recording debt restructuring obligations as a debtor A debt restructuring in which the debt is settled by assets is derecognized when the relevant assets and the settled debt meet the conditions for derecognition, and the difference between the carrying amount of the settled debt and the carrying amount of the transferred assets is recognized in profit or loss for the current period. A debt restructuring that converts a debt into an equity instrument is derecognized by the Company when the settled debt meets the conditions for derecognition. The equity instrument of the Company is measured at its fair value upon initial recognition, and if the fair value cannot be reliably measured, it is measured at the fair value of the settled debt. The difference between the carrying amount of the settled debt and the amount recognized for the equity instrument is recognized in current profit or loss. Debt restructuring by modifying other terms shall be recognized and measured in accordance with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments and Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 37 – Presentation of financial instruments. If debt restructuring is carried out by using multiple assets to pay off debts or combination, equity instruments and restructured debts shall be recognized and measured according to the abovementioned methods. The difference between the carrying amount of the settled debts and the carrying amount of the transferred assets and the sum of the recognized amounts of the equity instruments and restructured debts shall be included in the current profits or losses. (2) Recording debt restructuring obligations as a creditor For debt restructuring in which assets are used to pay off debts, assets other than the transferred financial assets are initially recognized at cost. The cost of inventory includes the fair value of abandoned creditor’s rights and other costs directly attributable to the asset, such as taxes, transportation costs, handling charges, insurance premiums, etc., incurred to enable the asset to reach its current position and state. The cost of an investment in an associate or joint venture and the cost of investment property respectively include the fair value of abandoned creditor’s rights and other costs directly attributable to the asset, such as taxes. The cost of a fixed asset includes the fair value of abandoned creditor’s rights and other costs directly attributable to the asset, such as taxes, transportation costs, handling charges, installation costs, professional services fee, incurred before bringing the asset to its intended usable condition. The cost of an intangible asset includes the fair value of abandoned creditor’s rights and other costs such as taxes that are directly attributable to bringing the asset to its intended use. The difference between the fair value and the carrying value of abandoned creditor’s rights should be recognized in profit or loss for the current period. If the debt restructuring of converting debt into equity instrument causes the Company to convert the creditor’s right into equity investment in an associate or a joint venture, the initial investment cost shall be measured according to the fair value of the abandoned creditor’s right and other costs such as taxes directly attributable to the asset. The difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of the abandoned creditor’s rights recognized in profit or loss for the current period. For debt restructuring by modifying other terms, the creditor’s rights restructured shall be recognized and measured in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments. If debt restructuring is carried out by using multiple assets to pay off debts or combination, firstly, the transferred financial assets and creditor’s right restructured are recognized and measured in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments, and then the net amount of the fair value of the abandoned creditor’s rights after deducting the recognized amount of the transferred financial assets and the restructured creditor’s rights are allocated in proportion to the fair value of each asset other than the transferred financial assets. On this basis, the cost of each asset is determined separately in accordance with the above method. The difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of the abandoned creditor’s rights is recognized in profit or loss for the current period. 45. Repurchase of shares of the Company Consideration and transaction costs paid by the Company to repurchase its own equity instruments reduce owners’ equity. If the Company reduces its capital by purchasing the Company’s shares in accordance with legal procedures, the share capital shall be reduced according to the total book value of the shares canceled, and the difference between the price (including transaction expenses) paid for the repurchase of shares and the par value of the shares shall be adjusted to the owner’s equity, and the portion exceeding the total par value shall be deducted from the capital reserve (share premium), surplus reserve and undistributed profit sequentially; if it is less than the total book value, the portion less than the total book value will be increased to the capital reserve 157 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report (share premium). No gain or loss is recognized by the Company as a result of the issue, repurchase, sale or cancelation of the Company’s own equity instruments. The repurchased shares prior to cancellation or transfer of shares are managed as treasury shares. All costs incurred from repurchase of shares are recognized as the costs of treasury shares. Upon transfer of treasury shares, the excess of transfer income over the cost of treasury shares is credited to capital reserve (share premium); the portion lower than the cost of treasury shares shall be deducted from capital reserve (share premium), surplus reserve and undistributed profit sequentially. Treasury shares formed by the Company’s repurchase of its ordinary shares shall not participate in the Company’s profit distribution and shall be presented as an item of allowance for owner’s equity in the balance sheet. 46. Hedge accounting According to the hedging relationship, the Company divides hedging into fair value hedging, cash flow hedging and overseas net investment hedging. (1) Hedging instruments that meet the following conditions at the same time shall be treated with hedging accounting method 1) The hedging relationship is only composed of qualified hedging instruments and hedged items. 2) At the beginning of hedging, the Company formally designated hedging instruments and hedged items, and prepared written documents on hedging relationship, risk management strategy and risk management objectives for hedging. 3) The hedging relationship meets the requirements of hedging effectiveness. If the hedging meets the following conditions at the same time, the hedging relationship shall be deemed to meet the requirements of hedging effectiveness: A. There is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument. This economic relationship makes the value of the hedging instrument and the hedged item change in the opposite direction due to the same hedged risk. B. In the value changes caused by the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, the impact of credit risk does not dominate. C. The hedging ratio of the hedging relationship is equal to the ratio of the actual number of hedged items hedged by the Company to the actual number of hedging instruments hedged, but does not reflect the imbalance of the relative weight of the hedged items and hedging instruments. This imbalance will lead to ineffective hedging and may produce accounting results inconsistent with the hedging accounting objectives. (2) Accounting treatment for fair value hedges 1) Gains or losses arising from hedging instruments shall be included in current profit and loss. If the hedging instrument hedges the non-tradable equity instrument investment (or its components) that is selected to be measured at fair value and its change is included in other comprehensive income, the gains or losses generated by the hedging instrument are included in other comprehensive income. 2) Gains or losses of the hedged item arising from the hedged risk exposure are included in the current profit and loss, and the book value of the hedged item that is not measured at fair value is adjusted. If the hedged item is a financial asset (or its component) measured at fair value and its change is included in other comprehensive income, the profit or loss generated from the hedged risk exposure is included in the current profit and loss, and its book value has been measured at fair value without adjustment; the hedged item is the non-tradable equity instrument investment (or its components) that the company chooses to measure at fair value and its change is included in other comprehensive income, the gains or losses arising from the hedged risk exposure are included in other comprehensive income, and its book value has been measured at fair value without adjustment. If the hedged item is an unrecognized firm commitment (or its component), the accumulated change in fair value caused by the hedged risk after the designation of the hedging relationship shall be recognized as an asset or liability, and the relevant gains or losses shall be included in the profits and losses of each relevant period. When the asset or liability is acquired by fulfilling the established commitment, the initial recognized amount of the asset or liability is adjusted to include the fair value cumulative change of the recognized hedged item. 3) If the hedged item is a financial instrument (or its component) measured at amortized cost, the adjustment of book value of the hedged item shall be amortized according to the actual interest rate recalculated on the amortization date and included in the current profit and loss. The amortization can start from the adjustment date, but not later than the time point when the hedging gains and losses are adjusted for the termination of the hedged item. If the hedged item is a financial asset (or its component) measured at fair value and its change is included in other comprehensive income, the accumulated recognized hedging gains or losses shall be amortized in the same way and included in the current profit and loss, but the book value of the financial asset (or its component) shall not be adjusted. (3) Accounting for cash flow hedges 1) The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge, which is regarded as the cash flow hedging reserve, and shall be recognized in other comprehensive income: The amount of the cash flow hedge reserve shall be determined by the lower of the absolute amount of the following two items: A. the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument from inception of the hedge; and B. the present value of the cumulative change in the hedged expected future cash flows of the hedged item from inception of the hedge. The amount of the cash flow hedge reserve recognized in the other comprehensive income during each accounting period is the change in the current cash flow hedge reserve. 158 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report 2) The portion of gain or loss on the hedging instrument (that is, other gains or losses after deducting other comprehensive income) is hedge ineffectiveness that shall be recognized in profit or loss. 3) The amount of cash flow hedge reserve shall be accounted for as follows: A. The hedged item is an expected transaction, and the expected transaction causes the company to subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, or the expected transaction of non-financial asset or a non- financial liability becomes a firm commitment for which fair value hedge accounting is applied, the Company shall remove that amount from the cash flow hedge reserve and include it directly in the initial cost or other carrying amount of the asset or the liability. B. For cash flow hedges other than those covered by previous clause, that amount shall be reclassified from the cash flow hedge reserve originally recognized in other comprehensive income to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged expected future cash flows affect profit or loss. C. However, if that amount is a loss and the Company expects that all or a portion of that loss will not be recovered in one or more future periods, it shall immediately reclassify the amount that is not expected to be recovered into profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment. (4) Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, including a hedge of a monetary item that is accounted for as part of the net investment, shall be accounted for similarly to cash flow hedges: 1) The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge shall be recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge that has been accumulated in the foreign currency translation reserve shall be reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment on the disposal or partial disposal of the foreign operation. 2) The ineffective portion shall be recognized in profit or loss. (5) Termination of hedge accounting In case of any of the following circumstances, the application of hedge accounting shall be terminated: 1) the hedging relationship no longer meets the risk management objective due to changes in risk management objective. 2) the hedging instrument or instruments have been expired, sold or contract terminated or executed. 3) there is no longer an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument or the effect of credit risk starts to dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship. 4) The hedging relationship does not satisfy other conditions of undertaking hedge accounting. If rebalancing of the hedging relationship applies, the Company shall consider the rebalancing the hedging relationship first and subsequently assess whether the hedging relationship satisfies the conditions of undertaking hedge accounting. The termination of hedging accounting may affect the whole or a part of the hedging relationship. When only a part of it is affected, the remaining unaffected parts still applies hedging accounting. (6) Option to designate a credit exposure as measured at fair value When the credit risk exposure of a financial instrument (or its components) is managed by using a credit derivative instrument measured at fair value through current profit and loss, the financial instrument (or its components) can be at the time of initial recognition, subsequent measurement or unconfirmed, it shall be designated as a financial instrument measured at fair value with its changes included in the current profit and loss, and written records shall be made at the same time, but the following conditions shall be met simultaneously: 1) the name of the credit exposure (for example, the borrower, or the holder of a loan commitment) matches the reference entity of the credit derivative (‘name matching’); 2) the seniority of the financial instrument matches that of the instruments that can be delivered in accordance with the credit derivative. 47. Discontinued operations Discontinued components are those components of the Company that meet one of the following conditions and can be separately distinguished, and which have been disposed of or classified as held for sale: (1) The component represents a separate major business or a major area of operation. (2) The component is part of an associated plan for the proposed disposal of a separate major business or a separate major operating area. (3) The component is a subsidiary acquired exclusively for resale. Operating gains and losses such as impairment losses and reversals of amounts from discontinued operations and gains and losses on disposals are presented in the statement of profit or loss as gains and losses of discontinued operations. 48.

Risks Related to Financial Instruments 1. Categories of risks arising from financial instruments The Company’s primary financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, equity investment, loans, receivables, payables and convertible bonds, etc. In daily business activities, the Company is faced with various risks of financial instruments, mainly including credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The risks associated with these financial instruments and the risk management policies adopted 206 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report by the Company to mitigate these risks are described as follows: The board of directors is responsible for planning and establishing the Company’s risk management framework, formulating risk management policies and relevant guidelines, and supervising the implementation of risk management measures. The Company has formulated risk management policies to identify and analyze the risks. These risk management policies clearly stipulated the specific risks, covering market risk, credit risk, liquidity risk management and many other aspects. The Company regularly evaluates the market environment and changes in its business activities to determine whether to update its risk management policies and systems. The Company’s risk management is carried out by the risk management committee in accordance with the policies approved by the board of directors. The risk management committee identifies, evaluates and avoids relevant risks through close cooperation with other departments. The internal audit department performs regular audit on risk management controls and procedures, and reports the audit results to the audit committee. The Company disperses the risk of financial instruments through appropriate diversified investment and business portfolio, and reduces the risks of being concentrated on a single industry, specific region or specific counterparty by formulating corresponding risk management policies. (I) Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Company caused by the counterparty’s failure to perform its contractual obligations. The management has formulated appropriate credit policies and constantly monitors the exposure of credit risk. The Company has adopted a policy of trading only with credit worthy counterparties. In addition, the Company assesses the credit qualification of customers and sets corresponding credit period based on their financial status, the possibility of obtaining guarantee from a third party, credit records and other factors such as current market conditions. The Company continuously monitors the balance and recovery of notes and accounts receivable. For customers with poor credit records, the Company will use written dunning, shortening credit period or canceling credit period to ensure that the Company will not face significant credit loss. In addition, the Company reviews the recovery of financial assets on each balance sheet date to ensure that the relevant financial assets are fully prepared for the expected credit loss. Other financial assets of the Company include cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, etc. The credit risk of these financial assets comes from the default of the counterparty, and the maximum credit risk exposure is the book amount of each financial asset in the statement of financial position. The company does not provide any other guarantee that may expose company to credit risk, except for the financial guarantees made by the Company as stated in Note XIV. (II). The cash and cash equivalents held by the Company are mainly deposited in the state-owned holding banks and other large and medium-sized commercial banks and other financial institutions. The management believes that these commercial banks have high reputation and asset status, there is no significant credit risk, and there will be no significant loss caused by the default of the other party. The company’s policy is to control the amount of deposit deposited according to the market reputation, business scale and financial background of each well-known financial institution, so as to limit the amount of credit risk to any single financial institution. As a part of the Company’s credit risk asset management, the Company uses account aging to assess the impairment loss of accounts receivable and other receivables. The accounts receivable and other receivables involve a large number of customers. The aging information can reflect the solvency and bad debt risk of these customers for accounts receivable and other receivables. Based on historical data, the Company calculates the historical actual bad debt rate of different account age periods, and takes into account the forecast of current and future economic conditions, such as national GDP growth, total infrastructure investment, national monetary policy and other forward-looking information to adjust the expected loss rate. For long term receivables, the Company comprehensively considers the settlement period, payment period agreed in the contract, the financial situation of the debtor and the economic situation of the debtor’s industry, and reasonably evaluates the expected credit loss after adjusting the aforesaid forward-looking information. As of December 31, 2023, the book balance and expected credit impairment loss of related assets are as follows: Item Book balance Provision for impairment 207 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report Notes receivable 770,021,854.08 9,053,466.83 Accounts receivable 6,865,281,589.35 145,581,827.17 Other receivables 28,319,743.88 1,751,649.62 Other current assets 251,828,755.71 Non-current assets due within one year 618,295,576.83 Other non-current assets 160,506,597.17 Receivable financing 408,354,641.63 Total 9,102,608,758.65 156,386,943.62 As of December 31, 2023, the amount of financial guarantees provided by the Company was RMB43,680.3422 million. Please refer to XIV. (II) for details of financial guarantee contracts. The management of the Company has assessed whether the guaranteed loans are overdue, the financial positions of borrowers and the economic conditions of the industries which the borrowers are in. it is believed that the relevant credit risks have not increased significantly since the initial recognition of financial guarantee contracts. Therefore, the Company measures its impairment provision at the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss of the above-mentioned financial guarantee contracts in the next 12 months. During the Reporting Period, the Company's assessment methods and major assumptions have not changed. According to the assessment of the Company's management, there are no significant expected provision of impairments on the relevant financial guarantees. The major clients of the Company have reliable and good reputation. Therefore, the Company does not believe that such customers have significant credit risks. As the Company has a wide range of customers, there is no significant credit concentration risk. No collateral is required as the Company only transacts with approved and reputable third parties. Credit risk concentration is managed on a customer basis. As at December 31, 2023, the Company has certain concentration of credit risk. 42.67% (December 31, 2022: 44.23%) of the Company's accounts receivable came from the top five customers in the balance. The Company does not hold any collateral or other measures on credit enhancement on its accounts receivable balances. The maximum credit risk exposure of the Company is the book value of each financial asset in the balance sheet. In terms of the wealth management products of banks, which are invested in by the Company, the credit rating of the counterparty must be higher than or the same as that of the Company. In view of the good credit rating of the counterparty, the management of the Company does not expect that the counterparty will be unable to perform its obligations. (II) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk refers to the risk of fund shortage when the Company satisfies the obligation of settlement by delivering cash or other financial assets. Each member of the Company is responsible for their own cash flow forecast. Based on the cash flow forecast results of each member enterprise, the subordinate financial department of the Company continuously monitors the short-term and long-term capital demand of the Company at the Company level to ensure that sufficient cash reserves are maintained; at the same time, it continuously monitors whether it conforms to the provisions of the loan agreement and obtains the commitment of providing sufficient reserve funds from the main financial institutions to meet the short-term and long-term capital demand. In addition, the Company entered into a financing line credit agreement with major business banks to provide support for the Company to fulfill its obligations related to commercial bills. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has had a bank credit line of RMB32,140.3422 million granted by several domestic banks, RMB12,031.9544 million of which has been used. As of December 31, 2023, all the financial liabilities and off-balance sheet guarantees of the Company are presented at undiscounted contractual cash flows by maturity date as follows: Item Closing balance Less than 1 year 1-5 years Total 208 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report Non-derivative financial liabilities Short-term borrowings 7,290,694,906.27 7,290,694,906.27 Notes payable 802,933,704.02 802,933,704.02 Accounts payable 1,441,243,438.57 167,066,177.89 1,608,309,616.46 Other payables 134,044,694.47 110,653,607.86 244,698,302.33 Long-term borrowings 1,088,108,156.55 4,685,315,817.70 5,773,423,974.25 Bonds payable 6,070,366.96 435,900,486.76 441,970,853.72 Subtotal of non-derivative 10,763,095,266.84 5,398,936,090.21 16,162,031,357.05 financial liabilities Total 10,763,095,266.84 5,398,936,090.21 16,162,031,357.05 Market risk 1. Exchange rate risk The Company’s major operational activities are carried out in China, and its main business is settled in RMB. However, the recognized assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and future transactions denominated in foreign currencies (the assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and transactions denominated in foreign currencies are mainly denominated in USD, EUR and JPY) still have exchange rate risk. The financial department of the Company is responsible for monitoring the scale of transactions denominated in foreign currencies and assets and liabilities of the Company denominated in foreign currencies to minimize the exchange rate risk; therefore, the Company may sign forward foreign exchange contracts or currency swap contracts to avoid exchange rate risk. (1) There was on forward exchange contracts or currency swap contracts signed by the Company for the year. (2) As of December 31, 2023, the financial assets and the financial liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held by the Company, are expressed in RMB as follows: Item Closing balance USD JPY EUR HKD HUF Total Financial assets denominated in foreign currencies: Monetary capital 175,200,583.29 38,804,997.16 136,889,074.35 8.36 6,965,709.45 357,860,372.61 Accounts receivable 493,310,570.69 58,327,397.30 3,925,604.54 555,563,572.53 Subtotal 668,511,153.98 97,132,394.46 140,814,678.89 8.36 6,965,709.45 913,423,945.14 Financial liabilities denominated in foreign currencies: Accounts payable 240,104,051.22 150,639.00 637,091.90 240,891,782.12 Sub-total 240,104,051.22 150,639.00 637,091.90 240,891,782.12 (3) Sensitivity analysis: As of December 31, 2023, for all kinds of USD, EUR and JPY financial assets and USD, EUR and JPY financial liabilities of the Company, if RMB appreciates or depreciates 10% against USD, EUR and JPY, and other factors remain unchanged, the Company will reduce or increase its net profit by about RMB57.1652 million (about RMB35.2179 million in 2022). 2. Interest rate risk The interest rate risk of the Company mainly derives from bank loans and others. The financial liabilities at floating interest rate expose 209 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report the Company to the interest rate risk of cash flow, and financial liabilities with fixed interest rate expose the Company to the interest rate risk of fair value. The company determines the relative proportion of fixed rate and floating rate contracts according to the market environment at that time. The financial department of the Company continuously monitors the interest rate level of company. The rising interest rate will increase the cost of new interest-bearing debt and the interest expense of the outstanding interest-bearing debt at floating interest rate, and have a significant adverse impact on the financial performance of company. The management will make timely adjustments according to the latest market conditions, which may be interest rate swap arrangements to reduce interest rate risk. (1) The Company had no significant interest rate swap arrangements this year. (2) As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s long-term interest-bearing liabilities were the floating rate contract denominated in RMB, amounting to RMB5,768.4394 million, as set out in note V. 32. (3) Sensitivity analysis: As of December 31, 2023, if the loan interest rate on the floating interest rate borrowings rises or falls by 50 basis points, while other factors remain unchanged, the Company’s net profit will decrease or increase by about RMB42,246,600 (approximately RMB29,618,500 in 2022). The above sensitivity analysis assumes that the interest rate has changed on the balance sheet date and has been applied to all borrowings obtained by the Company at a floating interest rate. 3. Price risk Price risk refers to the risk of fluctuation due to the change of market price other than exchange rate risk and interest rate risk, which mainly comes from the change of commodity price, stock market index, equity instrument price and other risk variables. 210 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report XIII.

The operating segments of the Company refer to the components meeting the following conditions at the same time: 1) The component can generate income and expenses in daily activities; 2) The management can regularly evaluate the operation results of the component to decide to allocate resources to it and evaluate its performance; 3) The relevant accounting information can be obtained from the financial status, operating results and cash flow of the component. The Company determines the reporting segment based on the operating segment, and the operating segment meeting one of the following conditions is determined as the reporting segment: 1) The segment revenue of the business segment accounts for 10% or more of the total revenue of allsegments; 2) The absolute profit (loss) of the segment accounts for 10% or more of the absolute sum of the total profits of all profit segments or the total losses of all deficit segments. When the total amount of external transaction revenue of the operating segment of the reporting segment determined according to the 223 Yunnan Energy New Material Co., Ltd. 2023 Annual Report above accounting policies does not account for 75% of the total consolidated revenue, increase the number of reporting segments, and include other operating segments not as reporting segments into the scope of reporting segments according to the following provisions until the proportion reaches 75%: 1) Determine the operating segment that the management believes the disclosure of the operating segment information is useful to the users of accounting information as the reporting segment; 2) The business segment is merged with one or more other business segments which have similar economic characteristics and meet the merger conditions of the business segment as a reporting segment.
