                  Section III. Management Discussion and Analysis

I. Particulars about the industry the Company engages in during the report period

Photovoltaic glass industry
In 2023, with the continuous expansion of the global photovoltaic market, the scale of the photovoltaic industry and the
growth rate of installed capacity were increasing. Driven by the growth in the installed capacity of photovoltaic modules
and the increasing penetration rate of double-glass modules, the demand for photovoltaic glass has been growing,
prompting enterprises to ramp up production. With the release of new capacity, the photovoltaic glass market has
experienced an increase in quantity but a decrease in price. This, coupled with the rising prices of various raw materials,
fuels and labour costs, resulted in robust demand, rising costs and low selling prices in the industry.

Architectural glass industry
The architectural glass business is to further process the original float glass sheet to manufacture energy-saving building
glass products with both safety and aesthetic effects in order to improve the energy-saving and safety performance of
buildings, as well as the visual aesthetic effects. Building energy-saving glass has made a significant contribution to
energy saving in the process of building use. The penetration rate in developed countries in Europe and the United States
has already exceeded 80%, but the overall penetration rate in China is still low. The total number of buildings in China is
huge. In order to cope with the pressure of global warming, to achieve the goals of “Carbon Peaking in 2030 and Carbon
Neutrality in 2060”, and to reduce building energy consumption and carbon emissions, it is imperative to reduce the
energy consumption and carbon emissions of buildings, to vigorously develop green buildings, and to carry out energy-
saving renovation of existing buildings. According to the Action Plan for the Establishment of Green Buildings issued by
the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, as well
as the national Action Plan for Carbon Peaking Before 2030, Comprehensive Work Plan for Energy Conservation and
Emission Reduction during the 14th Five-Year Plan, and other guidance documents’ requirements, 100% of the newly-
built urban building should meet the green building standards in 2025 (about 50% in 2020). It is expected that the
architectural glass business will gain significant development opportunities during the “14th Five-Year Plan” period. In
addition, with the gradual improvement of domestic social consumption level in recent years, building energy
conservation, safety standards, and quality requirements have been continuously improved. In practice, the bad practice
of winning the bid by the lowest price for construction projects has been initially reversed, and the quality and influence
of “Made in China” have been increasingly recognized around the world, which will bring broader development space to
advantageous enterprises that attach importance to product quality and technological innovation, as well as stable
industrial chain and supply chain.

Float glass industry
In 2023, the float glass industry experienced a rebound in demand from downstream markets, buoyed by policies such as
"guarantee of timely delivery of housing projects", which led to an improved supply-demand structure and capacity
expansion in the industry. According to statistics from third-party industry information agencies, by the end of 2023, there
had been a total of 255 float glass production lines operating nationwide, with a combined daily melting capacity of
approximately 173,000 tons, marking a 6.84% year-on-year increase.
Float glass traditionally finds its main application in building materials, and its demand trends positively correlate with
infrastructure investments and the overall prosperity of the real estate sector. Statistics released by the National Bureau
of Statistics indicate a 20.4% year-on-year decrease in new housing construction area and a 17.0% increase in completion
                                                             9
                                                                                                      CSG Annual Report 2023


area in 2023. Driven by the "guarantee of timely delivery of housing projects" policy, the pace of real estate completions
has accelerated, stimulating the release of pent-up demand in existing markets, thereby boosting the total demand for float
glass in the current period. However, various indicators such as the new construction area and sales area have shown signs
of softening, reflecting shifts in the real estate market's supply-demand relationship and increasing uncertainties in
forward market demand. Consequently, the float glass market is expected to undergo cyclical adjustments. Based on an
analysis of the market demand structure, the ongoing implementation of the national "dual carbon" policy in recent years
has led to a steady rise in the proportion of green buildings, resulting in a significant increase in the proportion of energy-
saving glass. Simultaneously, as economic growth continues and living standards improve, there is a sustained uptick in
demand for high-quality products such as ultra-white float glass. These adjustments to the product demand structure,
coupled with the rising demand for high-quality products, bode well for industry-leading companies operating in the high-
end market.

Electronic glass and display industry
Electronic glass, with its unique performance advantages such as high transmittance, high strength in ultra-thin state,
reliable and stable weather resistance, and processing convenience, is an indispensable material for cover glass and touch
control plate of intelligent display interactive application terminals such as smartphones, tablets, and computers. And it
is developing rapidly with the intelligent interactive display industry. With the popularization of information and
communication technologies such as 5G and the development of the mobile Internet, the production and lifestyle of human
society are gradually developing into a new form of high integration of people, machines, things, and information, in
which everything is interconnected, driving the demand for intelligent equipment to increase rapidly and significantly. In
recent years, in addition to the rapid popularization of mobile Internet terminals such as smartphones, tablets, and
computers, the vigorous development of smart homes, new energy vehicles, smart factories, smart business displays,
advanced education, medical care, conferences, self-service, and other industries has brought about the incremental
demand for human-computer interaction equipment, which provides a broader market prospect and market space for the
electronic glass industry, and also provides a market opportunity for leapfrogging development to upstream material
manufacturers with leading technological innovation capability and benign operation.
Against a backdrop of global economic deceleration, the consumer electronics market has faced widespread sluggishness
in recent years. According to the latest research report released by an industry research institution in February 2024, the
global shipment volume of smartphones in 2023 totalled 1.14 billion units, marking a 5.8% year-on-year decline.
Projections indicate that the shipment volume will remain stable in 2024, and the global smartphone market still faces
certain challenges.

Solar energy industry
The photovoltaic new energy industry is a strategic emerging industry in China, acting as an essential guarantee for the
country to realize energy safety and green development. After over twenty years of development, the industrial position
has developed from clean energy to “the most economical” energy today. Driven by the global climate environment
requirements of “carbon peaking and carbon neutrality”, photovoltaic power generation will progressively become the
mainstay of the energy structure. Solar energy, boasting remarkable advantages such as cleanliness, safety, and
inexhaustibility, presents boundless prospects for development.
In 2023, China's photovoltaic industry witnessed accelerated innovation and integration, driving further expansion in the
industry scale. According to statistics from the China Photovoltaic Industry Association, the outputs of high-purity
crystalline silicon, silicon wafers, solar cells, and modules hit record highs. The industry's total output value exceeded
RMB 1.7 trillion, marking impressive year-on-year growth rates of 66.9%, 67.5%, 64.9%, and 69.3%, respectively.
Throughout the year, major photovoltaic products experienced noticeable price declines, leading to an overall trend of
"an increase in quantity but a decrease in price" in exports.

       Reasons for major changes (over 30% year-on-year) in relevant data

       √ Applicable       □ Not applicable

       1. Photovoltaic glass: The increases in production volume, sales volume and inventory were mainly due to the
       establishment of new production lines in some subsidiaries.
       2. Float glass: The decrease in inventory was because the quantity of sales was greater than that of production during the
       year.
       3. High-purity crystalline silicon: The decreases in production volume and sales volume were due to the changed
       production cycle as a result of the transformation of Yichang Polysilicon’s high-purity crystalline silicon production line.
       4. Silicon wafer: The increase in inventory was mainly because the production and sales rhythm in the silicon wafer
       business of subsidiaries were adjusted.

     Description of main holding and shareholding companies
     In 2023, Yichang CSG Polysilicon Co., Ltd. experienced a decline in both the output, sales volume, and unit price of
     products such as high-purity crystalline silicon, resulting in a year-on-year decrease in operating results. Anhui CSG New
     Energy Material Technology Co., Ltd. and Xianning CSG Glass Co., Ltd. experienced a significant boost in the output
     and sales volume of photovoltaic glass as they put new production lines into operation, leading to substantial growth in
     operating results compared to the previous year. The operating performance of Yichang CSG Display Co., Ltd. declined
     due to the downturn in the electronic consumer goods market; meanwhile, a provision for long-term asset impairment
     was made this year based on the results of asset impairment testing, which resulted in its significant losses.

5. Risk factors and countermeasures

In 2024, in the face of severe international and domestic political and economic development and the task of building a
“Century CSG”, the Company will face the following risks and challenges:
① The international political environment still faces many uncertainties.
Affected by the complicated international political environment, domestic economy still faces many challenges and
uncertainties. In 2024, the Company will continue to strengthen its attention to the market, timely adjust operation strategy
according to market changes, and strive to achieve the annual core work objectives through steady operation.
②The glass business faces fierce competition among similar products, and pressure from rising price of raw materials
and fuels such as heavy alkali and natural gas and increasingly high labour cost. The photovoltaic glass industry not only
faces the risk of temporarily exacerbated overcapacity but also encounters severe homogenisation risks within the industry.
Moreover, it faces risks stemming from competition between various processes of the photovoltaic industry chain, which
can impact demand for photovoltaic glass. With the real estate sector entering an adjustment cycle and overall investment

declining, the architectural glass industry faces the risk of intensified competition within the glass deep processing sector.
The float glass industry faces the risk of temporarily decreased demand in the downstream architectural glass market. The
electronic glass industry contends with sustained overcapacity, intensifying supply-demand imbalances, and with
heightened competition among domestic players offering similar products. The continuous release of new capacity in the
solar energy industry will pose the risk of price declines due to temporary overcapacity. To cope with aforesaid risks, the
Company will take the following measures:
A. In the photovoltaic glass segment, the Company will devise targeted strategies and implement a range of robust
measures to achieve its business objectives. In terms of internal operation, its core focus remains on "ensuring safety,
stabilising production, improving quality, and reducing costs." The Company is fully committed to the stability of the
production process and the effective improvement of product quality, and will unswervingly and continuously promote
cost reduction and efficiency enhancement, so as to strengthen the core competitiveness. Regarding sales, the Company
will vigorously pursue the strategy of "expanding markets, adjusting structure, reducing costs, and controlling risks."
Based on industry characteristics, it will optimise its product structure to match market demand and continuously advance
lean management and differentiated operations to further enhance profitability. The Company will also intensify efforts
to develop key customers, thereby matching the new capacity released and enhancing industry competitiveness.
Externally, it will pay closer attention to the demand-supply dynamics of raw materials, and timely and strategically
prepare materials to reduce the impact of the price fluctuations of raw materials on its operating results.
B. In the architectural glass segment, the Company will accelerate the pace of digital, networked and intelligent
transformation of the manufacturing industry to reduce the consumption of manpower, materials and energy. The
Company will strengthen the development of high-end market and overseas market, actively respond to market changes,
continuously deepen market exploitation, refine market layout, increase the application of new products and new
technologies, improve service capability, give full play to quality, technology and brand advantages, and at the same time,
maintain the advantageous position of the Company through market-oriented extension of industrial chain.
C. In the float glass segment, the Company will persist in pursuing differentiated operations, refining product structure,
and boosting the share of high-value-added offerings. Additionally, through technological upgrades, the Company aims
to enhance production efficiency and lower manufacturing costs, thereby consistently enhancing its competitive edge in
the industry.
D. In the electronic glass and display segment, the Company will continue to strengthen CSG’s brand presence for
electronic glass, build a solid foundation for medium- and high-end products, enhance customer recognition and stabilise
the high-end market share. In addition, it will further strengthen the R&D and innovation of new technologies, new
products and new applications, constantly narrow the gap from international peers, maintain technical leading advantage
in China, and at the same time, intensify efforts to explore new market applications, broaden development directions in
the industry and explore more applications on the market.
E. In the solar energy segment, the Company will strengthen the integration of resources across the industry chain, pay
attention to the price trend, supply-demand relationship and terminal demands in upstream and downstream procurement
and sales, increase R&D investment, strengthen operation management, and maintain corporate competitiveness in market
segments; keep an eye on market changes, rationally adjust inventories, vigorously carry out cost reduction and efficiency
increase activities, implement energy saving and cost control measures, and timely upgrade and replace the equipment to
improve production efficiency and ensure the Company’s benefits; and ensure continuous leadership industry-wide
through the technological and cost advantages of new production lines and the efficient and professional business
capabilities of the team.
③ Risk of fluctuation of foreign exchange rate: At present, nearly 8.55% of the operating revenue of the Company is
from overseas, and in the future, the Company will further develop overseas business. Therefore, the fluctuation of
exchange rate will bring certain risk to the operation of the Company. To cope with such risk, the Company will settle

2. Staff remuneration policy

In 2023, the Company continued to emphasize the principle of “Performance Orientation” in compensation management,
strengthened the application of organizational performance results and individual performance results, and advocated that
salary incentives should be inclined to high-performing organizations and high-performing individuals, to improve the
work enthusiasm of employees, thereby enhancing overall organizational performance and achieving business objectives.


3. Staff training plan

The Company has always attached great importance to the talent team construction and staff training and development.
Within the Group's Human Resources Department, dedicated training modules have been established, and dedicated staff
and funds are earmarked to support the growth and literacy enhancement of employees.
The Company has established training and development systems for employees at different levels, including the
"Navigation Series" designed for management across different tiers and the "Star Plan" aimed at nurturing talent from
campus recruits to elites. Additionally, it has developed personalised training and development programmes for diverse
professionals, with adjustments made to the training plan according to the business plan every year. This approach aims
to stimulate the drive of employees, enhance the competitiveness of the enterprise, and provide a strong guarantee for the
development of CSG Group.
In 2023, in response to the objective of "enhancing refined and specialised management and promoting cost reduction
and efficiency improvement management, supply chain management and lean management to ensure the achievement of
the business and construction targets for 2023" as outlined in the business plan, the Company planned and implemented
the "Lean Production Management" training series. These sessions targeted heads of subsidiaries, heads responsible for
production, and heads of production departments. To ensure widespread influence and implementation, all third-phase
trainees were mandated to participate in the train-the-trainer sessions, resulting in approximately 1,000 participants in
total. This initiative effectively promoted the adoption of lean production across the Group.
In 2024, in addition to the continuation of the "Navigation Series", "Star Plan" and specialised training programmes, the
Company will place particular emphasis on nurturing elites in pivotal roles as well as technical talent. It will also continue
to deepen the scientific and systematic operation of training and development, so as to energise, promote management
and increase benefits, and achieve a win-win situation for the growth of employees and the development of the enterprise.

    Treatment of pollutants

    All subsidiaries have built pollution prevention and control facilities in accordance with the environmental impact
    assessment documents of construction projects and relevant specifications, and adopted air pollution control process such
    as electrostatic precipitator + SCR denitrification + semi-dry desulfurization + bag dust removal, ceramic filter cartridge
    desulfurization, denitrification and dust removal integration, bag dust removal and water treatment process such as
    neutralization + precipitation, fluidized bed, and biological oxidation, for which the technologies used were all in line
    with the requirements of the “Guidelines for Feasible Technologies for Pollution Prevention and Control in Glass
    Manufacturing Industry” and other documents. In 2023, the pollution control facilities were in good operation and the
    pollutants were discharged stably up to the standard. The air pollutant emission concentrations of most of the subsidiaries
    were lower than 50% of the emission standard and enjoyed the preferential policy of halving environmental tax. The
    pollutant emissions of many subsidiaries reached and implemented local ultra-low emission standards.

In accordance with the national requirements, all subsidiaries prepared environmental emergency response plans,
organized expert evaluation and filed with the local environmental protection department as required, and conducted the
emergency drill against environmental emergency as planned. No major environmental emergency occurred in 2023.

Environmental self-monitoring scheme

The subsidiaries have built and operated on-line monitoring devices for waste water and exhaust gas in accordance with
national laws and regulations, environmental impact assessment documents of construction projects and the requirements
of their replies, regularly carried out comparison and review of the effectiveness of on-line monitoring facilities, and
entrusted a third-party unit to carry out manual environmental monitoring to comprehensively monitor the pollutant
discharge. The monitoring frequency is implemented in accordance with relevant monitoring technical guidelines or
pollutant discharge permits.

Investment in environmental governance and protection and payment of environmental protection tax

All subsidiaries have built pollution control facilities in accordance with the requirements of environmental impact
assessment, and maintained the stable operation of these facilities to ensure their simultaneous operation with production
equipment. Considerable energy and funds are invested in pollution control every year to ensure the stable discharge of
pollutants up to the standard, and reduce pollution emission as much as possible. Many subsidiaries have reached ultra-
low emission standards. All subsidiaries have made regular emission declarations and paid environmental taxes to the
local tax authorities in full and on time in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Protection Tax Law.

Measures taken to reduce carbon emissions during the report period and their effects
√ Applicable   □Not applicable

The Company has continuously strengthened the comprehensive utilization and management of resources and energy,
actively fulfilled the corporate social responsibility, taken various measures to save energy and reduce carbon emissions,
making our own contributions to the national goal of “Carbon Peaking” and “Carbon Neutrality”. The Group’s Operation
Department has specially established an energy management team, which was responsible for supervising the energy
consumption management of various subsidiaries, and promoted the energy consumption per unit product and carbon
emission per unit product of the Group’s various products to reach the advanced level in the industry. At present, the
energy consumption level of most glass melting furnaces in the flat glass business of CSG has reached the advanced level
stipulated by the national standard. At the same time, CSG has always paid attention to the utilization of waste heat in
flat glass factories. Its first waste heat power plant was put into operation as early as 2009 and each production base has
built waste heat boilers and waste heat power stations; CSG has been actively developing photovoltaic power plants since
2012, most of which have photovoltaic power stations on the roofs of factories. In 2023, CSG’s waste heat power
generation and photovoltaic power generation totalled about 502 million kWh, equivalent to reducing carbon dioxide
emissions by more than 286,300 tons.

and the consolidated and company statements of profit or loss, consolidated and company statements

Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are

     Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, are of the most
significance in our audit of the financial statements for the current period. These matters were
addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our
opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

     (A)Revenue recognition

For detailed disclosures, please refer to Note of the financial statements.

     1. Matter Description

The Group's sales revenue primarily comes from providing float glass, photovoltaic glass
architectural glass, solar industry-related products, electronic glass, and display devices to
customers. In the fiscal year 2023, the Group achieved operating revenue of 18,194.86 million
yuan. Since revenue is one of the Group's key performance indicators and has a crucial impact on
the financial statements, we identified revenue recognition as a key audit matter.

     2. Audit response

     We performed the following audit procedures mainly related to revenue recognition:

     (1) Understanding and evaluating the design of internal controls related to revenue
recognition, and testing the effectiveness of key control processes.

     (2) Sampling inspection of significant sales contracts to identify contract terms and
conditions related to the control transfer point, and assess whether the specific method of revenue
recognition by the Group complies with the Chinese Accounting Standards for Business
Enterprises (ASBE).

     (3) Substantive analytical procedures on operating revenue and gross profit margins by
month, product, customer, etc., to identify significant or abnormal fluctuations and analyze the
reasons for the fluctuations.

     (4) Selecting samples and performing detailed testing on sales revenue for the current period,
reviewing sales contracts, verifying supporting documents related to revenue recognition
(including orders, delivery notes, customs declarations, invoices, etc.), and confirming the
authenticity and accuracy of revenue in conjunction with customer sales receipts.

     (5) Employing sampling to select customers and performing circularization procedures on
their annual transaction amounts and accounts receivable balances.

     (6) Conducting cutoff tests on revenue recognized before and after the balance sheet date,
obtaining relevant supporting documents, verifying key timing points of revenue recognition, to
                                                 95
                                                                                   CSG Annual Report 2023


ascertain whether revenue is recognized in the appropriate period.

     (7) Checking whether revenue-related information has been appropriately presented and
disclosed in the financial statements.

     (B) Provision for Impairment of Fixed Assets

     For detailed disclosures, please refer to Note of the financial statements.

     1.Matter Description

     As of December 31, 2023, the book value of fixed assets in the consolidated financial
statements of the Group amounted to 13,145.56 million yuan, accounting for 43.30% of the total
assets in the consolidated financial statements, which is the largest component of the consolidated
financial statement assets; the impairment loss provided for fixed assets during the reporting
period amounted to 251.24 million yuan. The management of the Group (hereinafter referred to
as "the management") assessed whether there were indicators of impairment for these fixed assets.
For the fixed assets identified with indicators of impairment, the management estimated the
recoverable amount of the fixed assets and compared it with the carrying amount to confirm the
amount of impairment provision to be recognized. As the identification of indicators of fixed
asset impairment and the measurement of recoverable amount involve significant accounting
estimates and professional judgment by management, we identified the provision for impairment
of fixed assets as a key audit matter.

     2. Audit response

     We performed the following audit procedures mainly related to the provision for impairment
of fixed assets:

     (1) Understanding and evaluating the design of internal controls related to fixed asset
management, and testing the effectiveness of key control processes.

     (2) Reviewing the methods and assumptions used by the Group for impairment testing of
fixed assets, and evaluating whether the impairment methods employed by management comply
with the requirements of the Chinese Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises (ASBE).

     (3) Physically inspecting fixed assets and observing their usage and storage conditions.

     (4) Recalculating the recoverable amount of fixed assets and reviewing the evaluation
methods and key assumptions adopted by the external assessment institution hired by
management, conducted by assessment experts appointed by registered accountants.

     (5) Evaluating the competence, professionalism, and objectivity of the assessment experts
                                                96
                                                                                   CSG Annual Report 2023


appointed by management and the assessment experts appointed by registered accountants.

     4. Other Matters

     The management of CSG Holding Co., Ltd. is responsible for other information. Other
information includes the information covered in the 2023 annual report of CSG Holding Co., Ltd.,
but excludes the financial statements and our audit report.

     Our audit opinion on the financial statements does not cover other information, and we do
not provide any form of assurance conclusion on other information.

       In conjunction 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 duri ng the audit process or
appears to be materially misstated.

     If we determine, based on the work we have performed, that other information is materially
misstated, we should report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

     5. Responsibility of management and those charged with governance for financial
statements

     The management of CSG Holding Co., Ltd. is responsible for preparing the financial
statements in accordance with the Chinese Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises (ASBE)
to achieve fair presentation and for designing, implementing, and maintaining internal control
necessary to ensure that the financial statements are free from material misstatement due to fraud
or error.

     In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing matters related to going concern, and using the
going concern assumption, unless management intends to liquidate the Group, cease operations,
or have no other realistic option.

     The governance is responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of CSG Holding
Co., Ltd..

     6. Responsibility of certified public accountants for auditing financial statements

     Our objective is to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a
whole are free from material misstatement due to fraud or error and to issue an audit report that
includes our audit opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it is not a
guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards will always detect a
                                                97
                                                                                    CSG Annual Report 2023


material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can result from fraud or error, and the risk
of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting a
material misstatement due to error.

     In the process of performing audit work in accordance with auditing standards, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism. At the same time, we also perform
the following tasks:

     (1) Identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements due to
fraud or error, design and implement audit procedures to address these risks, and obtain sufficient
and appropriate audit evidence as a basis for issuing the audit opinion. Since fraud m ay involve
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or override of internal controls, the
risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting
a material misstatement due to error.

     (2) Understand internal controls related to the audit and design appropriate audit procedures
accordingly.

     (3) Evaluate the appropriateness of management's selection of accounting policies and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures.

     (4) Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern assumption.
At the same time, based on the audit evidence obtained, conclude whether there is a significant
uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.
If we conclude that there is a significant uncertainty, auditing standards require us to draw
attention in the audit report to the related disclosures in the financial statements; if the disclosures
are inadequate, we should issue a modified audit opinion. Our conclusion is based on information
available as of the date of the audit report. However, future events or circumstances may cause
the Group to be unable to continue as a going concern.

     (5) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the financial statements and
assess whether the financial statements reflect the transactions and events relevant to them fairly.

     (6) Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of
entities or business activities within the CSG Holding Co., Ltd. in order to issue an audit opinion.
We are responsible for directing, supervising, and executing the group audit, and we bear full
responsibility for the audit opinion.

     We communicate with governance regarding matters such as the planned scope of the audit,
timing of the audit, and significant audit findings, including significant internal control

deficiencies identified during the audit.

     We also provide a statement to governance regarding compliance with professional ethical
requirements related to independence and communicate with governance all relationships and
other matters that may be reasonably considered to affect our independence, as well as the
safeguards implemented in relation to these matters.

     From the matters communicated with governance, we determine which matters are of most
significance in our audit of the financial statements for the current period and thus constitute key
audit matters. We describe these matters in the audit report, unless prohibited by laws and
regulations from publicly disclosing them, or in very rare cases, if it is reasonably expected that
communicating a matter in the audit report would cause negative consequences outweighing the
benefits in the public interest.

    between the book value of the merger consideration (or the total face value of the shares issued) and the
    book value of the net assets obtained in the merger is adjusted to the capital reserve (share premium). If
    the capital reserve (share premium) is insufficient to offset it, the retained earnings are adjusted.

    The merger of enterprises under the same control is realized step by step through multiple transactions.

    The assets and liabilities of the merged party acquired by the merging party in the merger shall be
    measured based on the book value in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling
    party on the date of merger; the book value of the investments held before the merger plus the book value
    of the newly paid consideration on the date of merger The difference between the sum and the book value
    of the net assets obtained in the merger shall be adjusted to the capital reserve (equity premium) . If the
    capital reserve is insufficient for offset, the retained earnings shall be adjusted. The long-term equity
    investment held by the merging party before it obtained control of the merged party has been confirmed
    to be relevant between the date of acquiring the original equity and the date when the merging party and
    the merged party are under the final control of the same party, whichever is later, to the date of merger.
    Changes in profits and losses, other comprehensive income and other owners' equity should be offset
    against the opening retained earnings or current profits and losses during the comparative statement
    period respectively.

(2)Business combination not under common control

    For business combinations not under common control, the combination cost shall be the assets paid,
    liabilities incurred or assumed, and the fair value of equity securities issued to obtain control of the
    purchased party on the acquisition date. On the purchase date, the acquired assets, liabilities and
    contingent liabilities of the purchased party are recognized at fair value.

    If the merger cost is greater than the fair value share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets obtained in
    the merger,The difference is recognized as goodwill, and is subsequently measured at cost less
    accumulated impairment reserves; if the merger cost is less than the acquiree's identifiable net assets
    acquired in the merger, the difference is recognized as goodwill. The difference between the fair value of
    the net assets will be included in the current profit and loss after review.

    The merger of enterprises not under common control is realized step by step through multiple transactions.

    The merger cost is the sum of the consideration paid on the purchase date and the fair value of the
    purchased party's equity held before the purchase date on the purchase date. For the equity of the
    purchased party that has been held before the purchase date, it will be remeasured according to the fair
    value of the equity on the purchase date, and the difference between the fair value and its book value will
    be included in the investment income of the current period; The purchaser's equity held before the



                                                        110
                                                                                            CSG Annual Report 2023



    purchase date involves other comprehensive income, changes in other owners' equity are converted into
    current income on the purchase date, other comprehensive income arising from the investee's
    remeasurement of the net liabilities or changes in net assets of the defined benefit plan, and other
    comprehensive income originally designated as fair value Except for other comprehensive income related
    to investments in non-trading equity instruments that are measured and whose changes are included in
    other comprehensive income.

(3)Handling of Transaction Costs in Business Combinations

    Intermediary fees such as auditing, legal services, evaluation and consulting, and other related
    management fees incurred for business mergers are included in the current profit and loss when incurred.
    The transaction costs of equity securities or debt securities issued as consideration for the merger shall
    be included in the initial recognition amount of the equity securities or debt securities.

7、Judgment standards for control and methods for preparing consolidated financial statements


(1)Control criteria

    The scope of consolidation in consolidated financial statements is determined based on control. Control
    means that the Group has power over the invested unit, enjoys variable returns by participating in the
    relevant activities of the invested unit, and has the ability to use its power over the invested unit to affect
    its return amount. The Group will reassess when changes in relevant facts and circumstances lead to
    changes in the relevant elements involved in the definition of control.

    When judging whether to include structured entities into the scope of consolidation, the Group
    comprehensively considers all facts and circumstances, including assessing the purpose and design of
    the structured entities, identifying the types of variable returns, and whether it bears part or all of the
    returns by participating in its related activities. Evaluate whether the structured entity is controlled based
    on variability, etc.

(2)How to prepare consolidated financial statements

    The consolidated financial statements are based on the financial statements of the Group and its
    subsidiaries, and are prepared by the Group based on other relevant information. When preparing
    consolidated financial statements, the accounting policies and accounting period requirements of the
    Group and its subsidiaries are consistent, and significant inter-company transactions and balances are
    offset.

    Subsidiaries and businesses that are added due to business combinations under the same control during
    the reporting period are deemed to be included in the scope of consolidation of the Group from the date
    they are both controlled by the ultimate controlling party. The operating results and cash flows from the
    date of the announcement are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated cash flow
    statement respectively.

    For subsidiaries and businesses that are added due to business combinations not under common control
    during the reporting period, the income, expenses, and profits of the subsidiaries and businesses from



                                                         111
                                                                                             CSG Annual Report 2023



    the date of acquisition to the end of the reporting period are included in the consolidated income statement,
    and their cash flows are included in the consolidated cash flow statement.

    The part of the subsidiary's shareholders' equity that is not owned by the Group is listed separately as
    minority shareholders' equity in the consolidated balance sheet under shareholders' equity; the share of
    the subsidiary's current net profit and loss that is minority shareholders' equity is listed in the consolidated
    income statement. The net profit item is listed under the item "Profits and losses of minority shareholders" .
    If the losses of a subsidiary shared by minority shareholders exceed the minority shareholders' share of
    the opening owner's equity of the subsidiary, the balance will still offset the minority shareholders' equity.

(3)Purchase of minority shareholders' equity in subsidiaries

    The difference between the newly acquired long-term equity investment cost due to the purchase of
    minority shares and the share of the subsidiary's net assets calculated continuously from the date of
    purchase or merger based on the new shareholding ratio, and without losing control The difference
    between the disposal price obtained from the partial disposal of the equity investment in the subsidiary
    and the corresponding share of the subsidiary's net assets calculated continuously from the date of
    purchase or merger date corresponding to the disposal of the long-term equity investment shall be
    adjusted in the consolidated balance sheet. Capital reserve (equity premium/capital premium), if the
    capital reserve is insufficient to offset, the retained earnings will be adjusted.

(4)Treatment of Loss of Control of Subsidiaries

    If the control over the original subsidiary is lost due to the disposal of part of the equity investment or other
    reasons, the remaining equity shall be remeasured according to its fair value on the date of loss of control;
    the sum of the consideration obtained from the disposal of the equity and the fair value of the remaining
    equity shall be less Calculated based on the original shareholding ratio, the sum of the share of the book
    value of the net assets and goodwill of the original subsidiary calculated continuously from the date of
    purchase shall be included in the investment income in the current period when control is lost.

    Other comprehensive income related to the equity investment of the original subsidiary should be
    accounted for on the same basis as the original subsidiary's direct disposal of relevant assets or liabilities
    when the control is lost. Any income related to the original subsidiary that involves accounting under the
    equity method other changes in owners' equity should be transferred to the current profits and losses
    when control is lost.

8、Determination criteria for cash and cash equivalents

    Cash refers to cash on hand and deposits that can be used for payment at any time. Cash equivalents
    refer to investments held by the Group that are short-term, highly liquid, easily convertible into known
    amounts of cash, and have little risk of value changes.




                                                          112
                                                                                              CSG Annual Report 2023



9、Foreign currency business and foreign currency statement conversion


(1)Foreign currency business

    The Group's foreign currency business is converted into the recording currency amount based on the spot
    exchange rate on the date of the transaction.

    On the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are converted using the spot exchange rate
    on the balance sheet date. The exchange difference arising from the difference between the spot
    exchange rate on the balance sheet date and the spot exchange rate at the time of initial recognition or
    the previous balance sheet date is included in the current profit and loss; for foreign currency non-
    monetary items measured at historical cost, the spot exchange rate on the date of the transaction is still
    used The foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value shall be converted at the spot
    exchange rate on the date when the fair value is determined. The difference between the converted
    accounting functional currency amount and the original accounting functional currency amount shall be
    converted according to the non-monetary accounting currency amount. The nature of monetary items is
    included in current profits and losses or other comprehensive income.

(2)Translation of foreign currency financial statements

    On the balance sheet date, when converting the foreign currency financial statements of overseas
    subsidiaries, the asset and liability items in the balance sheet are translated using the spot exchange rate
    on the balance sheet date. Except for "undistributed profits", shareholders' equity items include other
    items. Converted using the spot exchange rate on the date of occurrence.

    Income and expense items in the income statement are translated using the spot exchange rate on the
    date of transaction.

    All items in the cash flow statement are translated according to the spot exchange rate on the date when
    the cash flow occurs. The impact of exchange rate changes on cash is regarded as an adjustment item
    and is reflected in the "Impact of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents" separately in the
    cash flow statement.

    Differences arising from the translation of financial statements are reflected in the "other comprehensive
    income" item under the shareholders' equity item in the balance sheet.

    When an overseas operation is disposed of and control is lost, the translation difference of the foreign
    currency statements listed under the shareholders' equity item in the balance sheet and related to the
    overseas operation shall be transferred to the current profit and loss of the disposal in full or in proportion
    to the disposal of the overseas operation.

10、Financial tool

    A financial instrument is a contract that forms a financial asset of one party and a financial liability or equity
    instrument of another party.




                                                           113
                                                                                                   CSG Annual Report 2023



(1)Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments

    The Group recognizes a financial asset or financial liability when it becomes a party to a financial
    instrument contract.

    Financial assets shall be derecognized if they meet one of the following conditions:

    ①The contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial asset terminates;

    ②The financial asset has been transferred and meets the following conditions for derecognition of
    financial asset transfer.

    If the current obligation of a financial liability has been discharged in whole or in part, the financial liability
    or part of it shall be derecognised. If the Group (debtor) signs an agreement with its creditors to replace
    existing financial liabilities by assuming new financial liabilities, and the contract terms of the new financial
    liabilities are substantially different from the existing financial liabilities, the existing financial liabilities will
    be derecognized and the new financial liabilities will be recognized at the same time.

    When financial assets are bought and sold in a regular manner, accounting recognition and derecognition
    will be carried out based on the transaction date.

(2)Classification and measurement of financial assets

    Upon initial recognition, the Group classifies financial assets into the following three categories based on
    the business model of managing financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of financial
    assets: financial assets measured at amortized cost, financial assets measured at fair value through other
    comprehensive income and financial assets measured at fair value through profits and losses.

    Financial assets are measured at fair value upon initial recognition. For financial assets measured at fair
    value through profit and loss, the relevant transaction costs are directly included in the current profit and
    loss; for other types of financial assets, the relevant transaction costs are included in the initial recognition
    amount. For receivables arising from the sale of products or provision of services that do not include or
    take into account significant financing components, the amount of consideration that the Group is
    expected to be entitled to receive shall be deemed as the initial recognition amount.

    Financial assets measured at amortized cost

    The Group classifies financial assets that meet the following conditions and are not designated as
    measured at fair value through profit or loss as financial assets measured at amortized cost:

     The Group's business model for managing this financial asset is aimed at collecting contractual
    cash flows;

     The contractual terms of the financial asset provide that the cash flows generated on a specific
    date are solely payments of principal and interest based on the outstanding principal amount.

    After initial recognition, such financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest
    rate method. Gains or losses arising from financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and are



                                                              114
                                                                                          CSG Annual Report 2023



not part of any hedging relationship are included in the current profit and loss when they are derecognized,
amortized according to the effective interest method, or impairment is recognized.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

The Group classifies financial assets that meet the following conditions and are not designated as
measured at fair value through profit or loss as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive
income:

 The Group's business model for managing the financial assets aims at both collecting contractual
cash flows and selling the financial assets;

 The contractual terms of the financial asset provide that the cash flows generated on a specific
date are solely payments of principal and interest based on the outstanding principal amount.

After initial recognition, such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest,
impairment losses or gains and exchange gains and losses calculated using the effective interest rate
method are included in the current profit and loss, and other gains or losses are included in other
comprehensive income. When derecognition is terminated, the accumulated gains or losses previously
included in other comprehensive income will be transferred out of other comprehensive income and
included in the current profit and loss.

Financial assets measured at fair value through profits and losses

Except for the above-mentioned financial assets measured at amortized cost and at fair value through
other comprehensive income, the Group classifies all remaining financial assets as financial assets at fair
value through profit or loss. At the time of initial recognition, in order to eliminate or significantly reduce
accounting mismatches, the Group irrevocably designated some financial assets that should have been
measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income as financial assets
measured through profits and losses.

After initial recognition, such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value, and the resulting
gains or losses (including interest and dividend income) are included in the current profits and losses,
unless the financial assets are part of a hedging relationship.

The business model for managing financial assets refers to how the Group manages financial assets to
generate cash flow. The business model determines whether the source of cash flow from the financial
assets managed by the Group is collection of contractual cash flow, sale of financial assets or both. The
Group determines the business model for managing financial assets based on objective facts and specific
business objectives for managing financial assets determined by key management personnel.

The Group evaluates the contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets to determine whether
the contractual cash flows generated by the relevant financial assets on a specific date are only payments
of principal and interest based on the outstanding principal amount. Among them, principal refers to the
fair value of the financial asset at the time of initial recognition; interest includes consideration for the time
value of money, the credit risk associated with the outstanding principal amount in a specific period, and
other basic lending risks, costs and profits. In addition, the Group evaluates contract terms that may cause
changes in the time distribution or amount of contractual cash flows of financial assets to determine
whether they meet the requirements of the above contractual cash flow characteristics.



                                                       115
                                                                                              CSG Annual Report 2023



    Only when the Group changes its business model for managing financial assets, all affected relevant
    financial assets will be reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period after the change in business
    model. Otherwise, financial assets shall not be reclassified after initial recognition. .

    Financial assets are measured at fair value upon initial recognition. For financial assets measured at fair
    value through profit and loss, the relevant transaction costs are directly included in the current profit and
    loss; for other types of financial assets, the relevant transaction costs are included in the initial recognition
    amount. For accounts receivable arising from the sale of products or provision of services that do not
    include or take into account significant financing components, the amount of consideration that the Group
    is expected to be entitled to receive shall be deemed as the initial recognition amount.

(3)Classification and measurement of financial liabilities

    The Group's financial liabilities are classified upon initial recognition into: financial liabilities measured at
    fair value through profit or loss, and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. For financial liabilities
    that are not classified as measured at fair value through profit and loss, relevant transaction costs are
    included in their initial recognition amount.

    Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss

    Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include trading financial liabilities and financial
    liabilities designated as fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. Such financial liabilities
    are subsequently measured at fair value, and gains or losses arising from changes in fair value, as well
    as dividends and interest expenses related to such financial liabilities, are included in the current profits
    and losses.

    Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost

    Other financial liabilities adopt the actual interest rate method and are subsequently measured at
    amortized cost. Gains or losses arising from derecognition or amortization are included in the current
    profits and losses.

    The difference between financial liabilities and equity instruments

    Financial liabilities refer to liabilities that meet one of the following conditions:

    ①Contractual obligation to deliver cash or other financial assets to other parties.

    ②Contractual obligations to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with other parties under
    potentially adverse conditions.

    ③Non-derivative contracts that must or can be settled with the enterprise's own equity instruments in the
    future, and the enterprise will deliver a variable number of its own equity instruments according to the
    contract.

    ④Derivative contracts that must or can be settled with the enterprise's own equity instruments in the
    future, except for derivative contracts that exchange a fixed number of its own equity instruments for a
    fixed amount of cash or other financial assets.




                                                           116
                                                                                                CSG Annual Report 2023



    Equity instruments refer to contracts that prove ownership of the remaining equity in the assets of an
    enterprise after deducting all liabilities.

    If the Group cannot unconditionally avoid delivering cash or other financial assets to fulfill a contractual
    obligation, the contractual obligation meets the definition of a financial liability.

    If a financial instrument must be settled or can be settled with the Group's own equity instruments, it is
    necessary to consider whether the Group's own equity instruments used to settle the instrument are used
    as a substitute for cash or other financial assets, or to enable the holders of the instrument to The
    remaining interest in the issuer's assets after deducting all liabilities. If it is the former, the instrument is a
    financial liability of the Group; if it is the latter, the instrument is an equity instrument of the Group.

(4)Fair value of financial instruments

    Note for the method of determining the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities.

(5)Impairment of financial assets

    Based on expected credit losses, the Group performs impairment accounting on the following items and
    recognizes loss provisions:

         Financial assets measured at amortized cost;

         Receivables and debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income ;

         Contract assets as defined in "Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue ";

         Lease receivables;

     Financial guarantee contracts (except those that are measured at fair value and whose changes
    are included in current profits and losses, the transfer of financial assets does not meet the conditions
    for derecognition, or the financial assets continue to be involved in the transferred financial assets).

    Measurement of expected credit losses

    Expected credit losses refer to the weighted average of the credit losses of financial instruments with the
    risk of default as the weight. Credit loss refers to the difference between all contractual cash flows
    receivable under the contract and all cash flows expected to be received by the Group discounted at the
    original effective interest rate, that is, the present value of all cash shortfalls.

    The Group considers reasonable and well-founded information about past events, current conditions, and
    predictions of future economic conditions, and weights the risk of default to calculate the difference
    between the cash flows receivable under the contract and the cash flows expected to be received. The
    probability-weighted amount of the present value is recognized as the expected credit loss.

    The Group measures the expected credit losses of financial instruments at different stages respectively.
    If the credit risk of a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, it is in the
    first stage, and the Group will measure loss provisions based on the expected credit losses in the next 12



                                                            117
                                                                                         CSG Annual Report 2023



months; if the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition but
has not yet occurred If the financial instrument is credit-impaired, it is in the second stage, and the Group
measures the loss provision based on the expected credit losses for the entire duration of the instrument;
if the financial instrument has been credit-impaired since initial recognition, it is in the third stage, and the
Group measures the expected credit losses for the entire duration of the instrument. The expected credit
losses during the duration are measured as loss provisions.

For financial instruments with low credit risk on the balance sheet date, the Group assumes that its credit
risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition and measures loss provisions based on
expected credit losses within the next 12 months.

Lifetime expected credit losses refer to the expected credit losses caused by all possible default events
that may occur during the entire expected life of a financial instrument. Expected credit losses in the next
12 months refer to the default events of financial instruments that may occur within 12 months after the
balance sheet date (if the expected duration of the financial instrument is less than 12 months, the
expected duration) Expected credit losses are part of the expected credit losses throughout the entire
duration.

When measuring expected credit losses, the maximum period that the Group needs to consider is the
longest contract period for which the enterprise faces credit risk (including consideration of renewal
options).

For financial instruments in the first and second stages and with lower credit risk, the Group calculates
interest income based on its Carrying Amount before impairment provisions and actual interest rate. For
financial instruments in the third stage, interest income is calculated based on its Carrying Amount minus
the amortized cost and actual interest rate after impairment provisions have been made.

For receivables such as notes receivable, accounts receivable, receivable financing, other receivables,
and contract assets, if the credit risk characteristics of a certain customer are significantly different from
other customers in the portfolio, or the credit risk of the customer If the characteristics of the receivables
change significantly, the Group shall make a separate provision for bad debts for the receivables. In
addition to the receivables for which bad debt provisions are made individually, the Group divides the
receivables into groups based on credit risk characteristics and calculates bad debt provisions on a group
basis.

Notes receivable, accounts receivable and contract assets

For notes receivable and accounts receivable, regardless of whether there is a significant financing
component, the Group always measures its loss provisions at an amount equivalent to the expected credit
losses during the entire duration.

When the information on expected credit losses cannot be assessed at a reasonable cost for a single
financial asset, the Group divides notes receivable and accounts receivable into groups based on credit
risk characteristics, and calculates expected credit losses on the basis of the groups. The basis for
determining the group is as follows:

A. Notes receivable

     Notes Receivable Portfolio 1: Bank Acceptance Bill



                                                      118
                                                                                         CSG Annual Report 2023



     Notes Receivable Portfolio 2: Commercial Acceptance Bill

B. Accounts receivable

     Accounts receivable portfolio 1: Non-related party customers

     Accounts Receivable Portfolio 2: Related Party Customers

For notes receivable and contract assets divided into portfolios, the Group refers to historical credit loss
experience, combined with current conditions and predictions of future economic conditions, and
calculates expected credit losses through default risk exposure and the expected credit loss rate
throughout the duration.

For accounts receivable divided into portfolios, the Group refers to historical credit loss experience,
combined with current conditions and predictions of future economic conditions, to prepare a comparison
table between the aging/overdue days of accounts receivable and the expected credit loss rate for the
entire duration. Calculate expected credit losses. The aging of accounts receivable is calculated from the
date of confirmation / the number of overdue days is calculated from the date of expiration of the credit
period.

Other receivables

The Group divides other receivables into several combinations based on credit risk characteristics, and
calculates expected credit losses on the basis of the combinations. The basis for determining the
combinations is as follows:

     Other receivables portfolio 1: Amounts due from non-related parties

     Other receivables portfolio 2: Amounts due from related parties

For other receivables classified into portfolios, the Group calculates expected credit losses through the
default risk exposure and the expected credit loss rate within the next 12 months or throughout the
duration. For other receivables grouped by aging, the aging is calculated from the date of confirmation.

Debt investment, other debt investment

For debt investments and other debt investments, the Group calculates expected credit based on the
nature of the investment and various types of counterparties and risk exposures through default risk
exposure and expected credit loss rate within the next 12 months or throughout the duration.

Assessment of significant increase in credit risk

The Group compares the risk of default of a financial instrument on the balance sheet date with the risk
of default on the initial recognition date to determine the relative change in the default risk of the financial
instrument during its expected duration to assess whether the credit risk of the financial instrument has
increased significantly since its initial recognition.

When determining whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group
considers reasonable and supportable information, including forward-looking information,that can be
obtained without unnecessary additional cost or effort. Information considered by the Group includes:



                                                      119
                                                                                         CSG Annual Report 2023



     The debtor fails to pay the principal and interest on the due date of the contract;

 an actual or expected significant deterioration in the external or internal credit rating (if any) of the
financial instrument;

     The actual or expected serious deterioration in the debtor’s operating results;

 Existing or expected changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment will have
a significant adverse impact on the debtor's ability to repay the Group's debt.

Depending on the nature of the financial instrument, the Group assesses whether there is a significant
increase in credit risk on the basis of a single financial instrument or a combination of financial instruments.
When evaluating based on a portfolio of financial instruments, the Group can classify financial instruments
based on common credit risk characteristics, such as overdue information and credit risk ratings.

If it is overdue for more than 30 days, the Group determines that the credit risk of the financial instrument
has increased significantly.

The Group believes that financial assets default in the following circumstances:

 It is unlikely that the borrower will pay in full what it owes the Group, an assessment that does not
take into account recourse actions by the Group such as the realization of collateral (if held);

     Financial assets are overdue for more than 90 days.

Credit-impaired financial assets

The Group assesses whether credit impairment has occurred on financial assets measured at amortized
cost and debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income on the balance
sheet date. When one or more events occur that have an adverse impact on the expected future cash
flows of a financial asset, the financial asset becomes a credit-impaired financial asset. Evidence that a
financial asset has been credit-impaired includes the following observable information:

     The issuer or debtor encounters significant financial difficulties;

     The debtor breaches the contract, such as default or overdue payment of interest or principal;

 The Group grants the debtor concessions that it would not have made under any other
circumstances due to economic or contractual considerations related to the debtor's financial difficulties;

     the likelihood that the debtor will go bankrupt or undergo other financial reorganization;

 Financial difficulties of the issuer or debtor result in the disappearance of an active market for the
financial asset.

Presentation of expected credit loss provisions

In order to reflect changes in the credit risk of financial instruments since initial recognition, the Group re-
measures expected credit losses on each balance sheet date, and the resulting increase or reversal of
loss provisions shall be accounted for as impairment losses or gains into current profit and loss. For



                                                      120
                                                                                               CSG Annual Report 2023



     financial assets measured at amortized cost, the loss provision is reduced by the book value of the
     financial assets listed in the balance sheet; for debt investments measured at fair value through other
     comprehensive income, the Group's other comprehensive income The loss provision is recognized in
     income and does not deduct the book value of the financial asset.

     Write off

     If the Group no longer reasonably expects that the contractual cash flows of a financial asset can be fully
     or partially recovered, it will directly write down the Carrying Amount of the financial asset. Such a write-
     down constitutes the derecognition of the relevant financial asset. This situation usually occurs when the
     Group determines that the debtor does not have the assets or sources of income to generate sufficient
     cash flow to repay the amount that will be written down. However, in accordance with the Group's
     procedures for recovering due amounts, financial assets that are written down may still be affected by
     execution activities.

     If a financial asset that has been written down is later recovered, the reversal of the impairment loss will
     be included in the profit and loss of the current period of recovery.

(6)Financial asset transfer

     The transfer of financial assets refers to the transfer or delivery of financial assets to another party (the
     transfer-in party) other than the issuer of the financial assets.

     If the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of a financial asset to the
     transferee, the financial asset shall be derecognised; if the Group has retained substantially all risks and
     rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset shall not be derecognised.

     If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a financial
     asset, it shall handle the following situations respectively: if it gives up control of the financial asset, the
     financial asset shall be derecognised and the assets and liabilities incurred shall be recognized; if it has
     not given up control of the financial asset, If the financial asset is controlled, the relevant financial assets
     shall be recognized to the extent of its continued involvement in the transferred financial assets, and the
     relevant liabilities shall be recognized accordingly.

(7)Offset of financial assets and financial liabilities

     When the Group has the legal right to offset the recognized financial assets and financial liabilities and is
     currently able to enforce such legal rights, and the Group plans to settle on a net basis or to realize the
     financial assets and pay off the financial liabilities at the same time, the financial assets and financial
     liabilities will be Financial liabilities are presented in the balance sheet at the amount after offsetting each
     other. Otherwise, financial assets and financial liabilities are presented separately in the balance sheet
     and are not offset against each other.

11、Fair value measurement

     Fair value refers to the price that can be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
     transaction between market participants on the measurement date.



                                                            121
                                                                                                CSG Annual Report 2023



    The Group measures relevant assets or liabilities at fair value, assuming that an orderly transaction to
    sell assets or transfer liabilities is conducted in the main market for the relevant assets or liabilities; if there
    is no main market, the Group assumes that the transaction is in the most advantageous market for the
    relevant assets or liabilities. The market proceeds. The main market (or the most advantageous market)
    is the trading market that the Group can enter on the measurement date. The Group adopts the
    assumptions used by market participants to maximize their economic interests when pricing the asset or
    liability.

    For financial assets or financial liabilities that have an active market, the Group determines their fair value
    using quoted prices in the active market. If there is no active market for a financial instrument, the Group
    uses valuation techniques to determine its fair value.

    When measuring non-financial assets at fair value, the ability of market participants to use the asset for
    its best purpose to generate economic benefits is considered, or the ability to sell the asset to other market
    participants that can be used for its best purpose to generate economic benefits.

    The Group adopts valuation techniques that are applicable under the current circumstances and
    supported by sufficient available data and other information. It gives priority to the use of relevant
    observable input values and unobservable input values only uses when the observable input values
    cannot be obtained or are impractical to obtain..

    For assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value in financial statements, the fair value level to
    which they belong is determined based on the lowest level input value that is significant to the overall fair
    value measurement: the first level input value is the value that can be measured on the measurement
    date. The unadjusted quoted price of the same asset or liability obtained in the active market; the second
    level input value is the directly or indirectly observable input value of the relevant assets or liabilities in
    addition to the first level input value; the third level input value is Unobservable inputs to related assets or
    liabilities.

    At each balance sheet date, the Group reassesses the assets and liabilities recognized in the financial
    statements that continue to be measured at fair value to determine whether there is a transition between
    fair value measurement levels.

12、Inventories


(1)Inventory classification

    The Group's inventories are divided into raw materials, work in progress, inventory goods and turnover
    materials.

(2)Valuation method for issued inventory

    The Group's inventories are valued at actual cost when acquired. Raw materials, inventory, etc. are priced
    using the weighted average method when shipped.




                                                            122
                                                                                           CSG Annual Report 2023



(3)Methods of Provision for inventories

    On the balance sheet date, inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. When
    the net realizable value is lower than the cost, a provision for inventory depreciation is made.

    Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of the inventory minus the estimated costs to be incurred
    upon completion, estimated selling expenses and related taxes. When determining the net realizable
    value of inventories, it is based on the conclusive evidence obtained and the purpose of holding the
    inventories and the impact of events after the balance sheet date are also considered.

    The Group usually accrues inventory depreciation provisions based on individual inventory items. For
    inventories with large quantities and low unit prices, inventory depreciation provisions are made according
    to the inventory category.

    On the balance sheet date, if the factors that previously caused the inventory value to be written down
    have disappeared, the inventory depreciation provision shall be reversed within the amount originally
    accrued.

(4)Inventory system

    The Group adopts the perpetual inventory system.

13、Long-term investment

    Long-term equity investments include equity investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates.
    The associates of the Group are those that the Group can exert significant influence on the invested units.

(1)Initial measurement of investment cost

    Long-term equity investments resulting from business combinations: For long-term equity investments
    obtained from business combinations under common control, the share of the book value of the owner's
    equity of the merged party in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party will be
    used as the investment cost on the date of merger ; not under the same control For long-term equity
    investments obtained through a business merger, the investment cost of the long-term equity investment
    shall be based on the merger cost.

    For long-term equity investments obtained by other means: for long-term equity investments obtained by
    paying cash, the actual purchase price paid will be used as the initial investment cost; for long-term equity
    investments obtained by issuing equity securities, the fair value of the equity securities issued will be used
    as the initial investment cost.

(2)Subsequent measurement and profit and loss recognition methods

    Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method, unless the investment qualifies as
    held for sale; investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.



                                                         123
                                                                                        CSG Annual Report 2023



For long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method, in addition to the actual price paid
when acquiring the investment or the cash dividends or profits that have been declared but not yet
distributed included in the consideration, the cash dividends or profits declared to be distributed by the
investee shall be recognized as investment income for current profit and loss.

For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method, if the initial investment cost is
greater than the fair value share of the investee’s identifiable net assets that should be enjoyed at the
time of investment, the investment cost of the long-term equity investment will not be adjusted; if the initial
investment cost is less than the investment, the investee’s share of the identifiable net assets should be
enjoyed If the fair value share of net assets is identified, the book value of the long-term equity investment
will be adjusted, and the difference will be included in the current profit and loss of the investment.

When accounting using the equity method, investment income and other comprehensive income are
recognized respectively according to the share of the net profit or loss and other comprehensive income
realized by the investee that should be enjoyed or shared, and the book value of the long-term equity
investment is adjusted at the same time; in accordance with the declaration of the investee The portion
of the distributed profits or cash dividends that should be calculated will reduce the book value of the long-
term equity investment accordingly; for other changes in the owner's equity of the investee other than net
profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution, the book value of the long-term equity
investment will be adjusted and Included in capital reserves (other capital reserves). When confirming the
share of the investee's net profits and losses, the fair value of the investee's identifiable assets when the
investment is obtained is used as the basis, and in accordance with the Group's accounting policies and
accounting periods, the net profit of the investee is determined. Make adjustments and confirm.

If it is possible to exert significant influence on the investee or implement joint control but does not
constitute control due to additional investment or other reasons, on the conversion date, the sum of the
fair value of the original equity plus the cost of the new investment will be used as the initial investment
cost to be accounted for by the equity method. If the original equity is classified as a non-trading equity
instrument investment measured at fair value and its changes are included in other comprehensive
income, the related cumulative fair value changes originally included in other comprehensive income will
be transferred to retained earnings when it is accounted for under the equity method. .

If the joint control or significant influence on the invested unit is lost due to the disposal of part of the
equity investment or other reasons, the remaining equity after the disposal shall be changed to the
"Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Financial Instrument Recognition and Significant
Influence" on the date of loss of joint control or significant influence. Measurement" is used for accounting
treatment, and the difference between the fair value and the book value is included in the current profit
and loss. Other comprehensive income recognized due to the use of the equity method for accounting in
the original equity investment will be accounted for on the same basis as the investee's direct disposal of
relevant assets or liabilities when the equity method is terminated; other changes in owner's equity related
to the original equity investment Transferred to current profit and loss.

If the control over the invested unit is lost due to the disposal of part of the equity investment or other
reasons, and the remaining equity after the disposal can jointly control or exert significant influence on
the invested unit, it shall be accounted for according to the equity method, and the remaining equity shall
be regarded as owned. Adjustments will be made using the equity method upon acquisition; if the
remaining equity after disposal cannot jointly control or exert significant influence on the invested unit, the
relevant provisions of "Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and
Measurement of Financial Instruments" will be followed. Accounting treatment, the difference between its
fair value and book value on the date of loss of control is included in the current profit and loss.

                                                                                              CSG Annual Report 2023



    If the Group's shareholding ratio decreases due to capital increase by other investors, thereby losing
    control but it can exercise joint control or exert significant influence on the invested unit, the Group's share
    of the invested unit due to the capital increase shall be confirmed based on the new shareholding ratio.
    The difference between the share of net assets increased due to share expansion and the original book
    value of the long-term equity investment corresponding to the decrease in shareholding ratio that should
    be carried forward is included in the current profit and loss; then, the new shareholding ratio is deemed
    to have been calculated since the investment was obtained. That is, adjustments are made using the
    equity method of accounting.

    Unrealized gains and losses from internal transactions between the Group and its associates and joint
    ventures are calculated based on the shareholding ratio and are attributable to the Group, and investment
    gains and losses are recognized on an offsetting basis. However, if the unrealized internal transaction
    losses between the Group and the investee are impairment losses on the transferred assets, they will not
    be offset.

(3)Basis for determining joint control and significant influence on the invested unit

    Joint control refers to the shared control over an arrangement in accordance with relevant agreements,
    and the relevant activities of the arrangement must be decided only with the unanimous consent of the
    participants sharing control rights. When judging whether there is joint control, first judge whether the
    arrangement is collectively controlled by all participants or a combination of participants, and secondly
    whether decisions on activities related to the arrangement must be unanimously agreed upon by the
    participants who collectively control the arrangement. If all participants or a group of participants must act
    in concert to determine the relevant activities of an arrangement, all participants or a group of participants
    are considered to collectively control the arrangement; if there are two or more combinations of
    participants that can collectively Control of an arrangement does not constitute joint control. When
    determining whether joint control exists, the protective rights enjoyed are not taken into account.

    Significant influence means that the investor has the power to participate in decision-making on the
    financial and operating policies of the investee, but it is not able to control or jointly control the formulation
    of these policies with other parties. When determining whether it can exert a significant influence on the
    investee, it is considered that the investor's direct or indirect holdings of voting shares in the investee and
    the current executable potential voting rights held by the investor and other parties are assumed to be
    converted into control over the investee. The impact arising from the acquisition of equity includes the
    impact of current convertible warrants, share options and convertible corporate bonds issued by the
    investee.

    When the Group directly or indirectly through subsidiaries owns more than 20% (inclusive) but less than
    50% of the voting shares of the invested unit, it is generally considered to have a significant influence on
    the invested unit, unless there is clear evidence that this situation It is unable to participate in the
    production and operation decisions of the invested unit and does not have a significant impact; when the
    Group owns less than 20% (exclusive) of the voting shares of the invested unit, it is generally not
    considered to have a significant impact on the invested unit, unless there is clear evidence that this Under
    such circumstances, we can participate in the production and operation decisions of the invested unit and
    have a significant influence.

(4)Impairment testing method and impairment provision accrual method

    For investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, please refer to Note for the method of
    calculating asset impairment.

14、Investment properties

    Investment property is property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both. The Group's
    investment properties includes leased land use rights, land use rights held and prepared to be transferred
    after appreciation, and leased buildings.

    There is an active real estate trading market in the location where the Group's investment real estate is
    located, and the Group is able to obtain market prices and other relevant information of similar or similar
    real estate from the real estate trading market, so that it can make a reasonable estimate of the fair value
    of the investment real estate. Therefore, the Group adopts the fair value model for subsequent
    measurement of investment real estate, and changes in fair value through profit and loss.

    When determining the fair value of investment properties, refer to the current market price of the same or
    similar real estate in the active market; if the current market price of the same or similar real estate cannot
    be obtained, refer to the latest transaction price of the same or similar real estate in the active market,
    and Consider the transaction situation, transaction date, location and other factors to make a reasonable
    estimate of the fair value of the investment property; or determine its fair value based on the expected
    future rental income and the present value of the relevant cash flows.

    In rare cases, if there is evidence that the Group acquires an investment property that is not under
    construction for the first time (or an existing property becomes an investment property for the first time
    after completing construction or development activities or changing its use), the Group will If the fair value
    of investment real estate cannot be obtained continuously and reliably, the investment real estate will be
    measured using the cost model until disposal, and it is assumed that there is no residual value.

    The difference between the disposal income from the sale, transfer, scrapping or damage of investment
    properties after deducting its book value and relevant taxes is included in the current profit and loss.


15、Fixed assets


(1)Fixed asset recognition conditions

    The Group's fixed assets refer to tangible assets held for the production of goods, provision of labor
    services, leasing or operation and management, and with a useful life of more than one accounting year.

    A fixed asset can only be recognized when the economic benefits related to the fixed asset are likely to
    flow into the enterprise and the cost of the fixed asset can be measured reliably.

    The Group's fixed assets are initially measured based on the actual cost when acquired.

    Subsequent expenditures related to fixed assets shall be included in the cost of fixed assets when the
    economic benefits related to them are likely to flow into the Group and their costs can be reliably measured;


                                                         126
                                                                                           CSG Annual Report 2023



    daily repair costs of fixed assets that do not meet the conditions for subsequent expenditures for
    capitalization of fixed assets shall be included in the cost of fixed assets when the economic benefits
    related to them are likely to flow into the Group and their costs can be measured reliably. When incurred,
    it shall be included in the current profit and loss or included in the cost of related assets according to the
    beneficiary object. For the replaced part, its book value is derecognized.

(2)Depreciation methods for various types of fixed assets

    Fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method based on their costs less estimated residual
    values over their estimated useful lives Depreciation begins when a fixed asset reaches its intended
    usable condition, and depreciation stops when it is derecognized or classified as a non-current asset held
    for sale. Without considering impairment provisions, the Group determines the annual depreciation rates
    of various types of fixed assets based on fixed asset category, estimated service life and estimated
    residual value as follows:

     Category                          Useful lives (years)        Residual rate%     Annual depreciation rate %
     Buildings                                       20-35                       5                      4.75-2.71
     Mechinery equipment                              8-20                       5                     11.88-4.75
     Transportation and Others                         5-8                       0                       20-12.50

    Among them, for fixed assets for which impairment provisions have been made, the depreciation rate
    should also be calculated and determined by deducting the accumulated amount of fixed asset
    impairment provisions.

(3)Note for the impairment testing method and impairment provision accrual method for fixed assets.


(4)At the end of each year, the Group reviews the useful life, estimated net residual value and depreciation
     method of fixed assets.

    If there is a difference between the estimated useful life and the original estimate, the useful life of the
    fixed assets will be adjusted; if there is a difference between the expected net residual value and the
    original estimate, the estimated net residual value will be adjusted.

(5)Fixed asset disposal

    When a fixed asset is disposed of or no economic benefits are expected to be generated through use or
    disposal, the fixed asset is derecognised. The amount of disposal income from the sale, transfer,
    scrapping or damage of fixed assets after deducting their book value and relevant taxes is included in the
    current profit and loss.

16、Construction in progress

    The cost of the Group's construction-in-progress is determined based on actual project expenditures,
    including various necessary project expenditures incurred during the construction period, borrowing costs
    that should be capitalized before the project reaches its intended usable state, and other related expenses.


                                                         127
                                                                                         CSG Annual Report 2023



    Construction in progress is transferred to fixed assets when it reaches the intended usable state. The
    criteria for judging the intended usable status should meet one of the following conditions: The physical
    construction (including installation) of the fixed assets has been completed or substantially completed,
    trial production or trial operation has been carried out, and the results show that the assets can operate
    normally. Or it can produce stably, or the trial operation results show that it can operate normally. The
    amount of expenditure on the fixed assets constructed is very small or almost no longer occurs, and the
    fixed assets purchased have met the design or contract requirements, or are basically consistent with the
    design or contract requirements.

    Note for the method of accruing asset impairment for construction in progress.

17、Engineer material

    The Group's engineering materials refer to various materials prepared for projects under construction,
    including engineering materials, equipment that has not yet been installed, and tools and equipment
    prepared for production.

    The purchased engineering materials are measured at cost, the engineering materials received are
    transferred to the project under construction, and the remaining engineering materials after the completion
    of the project are transferred to inventory.

    Note for the asset impairment method of construction materials.

    In the balance sheet, the closing balance of construction materials is listed in the "Construction in
    Progress" item.

18、Borrowing costs


(1)Recognition principles for capitalization of borrowing costs

    If the borrowing costs incurred by the Group are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or
    production of assets that meet the capitalization conditions, they shall be capitalized and included in the
    cost of the relevant assets; other borrowing costs shall be recognized as expenses based on the amount
    incurred when incurred and shall be included in the cost of the relevant assets for current profit and loss.
    Borrowing costs will begin to be capitalized if they meet the following conditions at the same time:

    ①Asset expenditures have occurred. Asset expenditures include expenditures in the form of cash
    payments, transfers of non-cash assets or interest-bearing debts for the acquisition, construction or
    production of assets that meet capitalization conditions;

    ②The borrowing costs have been incurred;

    ③The necessary purchase, construction or production activities to bring the asset to its intended usable
    or salable state have begun.

(2)Borrowing cost capitalization period

    When the assets purchased, constructed or produced by the Group that meet the capitalization conditions
    are ready for intended use or sale, the capitalization of borrowing costs will cease. Borrowing costs
    incurred after the assets that meet the capitalization conditions reach the intended usable or salable state
    are recognized as expenses based on the amount incurred when incurred and included in the current
    profit and loss.

    If an asset that meets the capitalization conditions is abnormally interrupted during the acquisition,
    construction or production process, and the interruption lasts for more than 3 months, the capitalization
    of borrowing costs will be suspended; the borrowing costs during the normal interruption period will
    continue to be capitalized.

(3)Calculation method of capitalization rate of borrowing costs and capitalization amount

    The interest expenses actually incurred on special borrowings in the current period, minus the interest
    income from unused borrowed funds deposited in banks or investment income from temporary
    investments, are capitalized; general borrowings are capitalized based on the excess of the accumulated
    asset expenditures over the special borrowings. The capitalization amount is determined by multiplying
    the weighted average of asset expenditures by the capitalization rate of the general borrowings occupied.
    The capitalization rate is calculated and determined based on the weighted average interest rate of
    general borrowings.

    During the capitalization period, all exchange differences on special foreign currency borrowings are
    capitalized; exchange differences on general foreign currency borrowings are included in the current
    profits and losses.

19、Intangible assets

    The Group's intangible assets include land use rights, patent rights and proprietary technologies, mineral
    mining rights and others.

    Intangible assets are initially measured based on cost, and their service life is analyzed and judged when
    the intangible assets are acquired. If the service life is limited, from the time when the intangible asset
    becomes available for use, an amortization method that can reflect the expected realization method of
    the economic benefits related to the asset shall be used, and amortization will be amortized within the
    estimated useful life; if the expected realization method cannot be reliably determined, Amortization is
    carried out using the straight-line method; intangible assets with indefinite service life are not amortized.

    The amortization method of intangible assets with limited useful life is as follows:

        Category         Useful lives (years) Basis for determining service life     Amortization method          Notes
     Land use rights             30-70 years                             Warrant     Straight-line Depreciation
     Patent rights and
     proprietary                  5-20 years                 Estimated useful life   Straight-line Depreciation
     technologies
     Exploitation                16-20 years    Warrants, expected income period     Straight-line Depreciation



                                                            129
                                                                                               CSG Annual Report 2023


    rights
    Others                      2-10 years                 Estimated useful life   Straight-line Depreciation

    At the end of each year, the Group reviews the useful life and amortization method of intangible assets
    with limited service life. If it is different from the previous estimate, the original estimate is adjusted and
    treated as a change in accounting estimate.

    If it is expected that an intangible asset will no longer bring future economic benefits to the enterprise on
    the balance sheet date, the entire book value of the intangible asset will be transferred to the current profit
    and loss.

    Note for the method of impairment for intangible assets.

20、R & D expenditure

    The Group's R&D expenditures are expenditures directly related to the company's R&D activities,
    including R&D staff salaries, direct investment costs, depreciation expenses and long-term deferred
    expenses, design expenses, equipment commissioning expenses, intangible asset amortization
    expenses, entrusted external research and development expenses, Other expenses etc. The wages of
    R&D personnel are included in R&D expenditures based on project working hours. Equipment, production
    lines, and sites shared between R&D activities and other production and operation activities are included
    in R&D expenses according to the proportion of working hours and the proportion of area.

    The Group divides expenditures on internal research and development projects into expenditures in the
    research phase and expenditures in the development phase.

    Expenditures in the research stage are included in the current profits and losses when incurred.

    Expenditures in the development stage can only be capitalized if they meet the following conditions: it is
    technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it can be used or sold; there is the intention
    to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; the intangible asset The way to generate economic
    benefits includes being able to prove that there is a market for the products produced using the intangible
    assets or that the intangible assets themselves have a market. If the intangible assets will be used
    internally, they can prove their usefulness; there are sufficient technical, financial and other resource
    supports. , in order to complete the development of the intangible asset and have the ability to use or sell
    the intangible asset; the expenditures attributable to the development stage of the intangible asset can
    be measured reliably. Development expenditures that do not meet the above conditions are included in
    the current profit and loss.

    The Group's research and development projects will enter the development stage after meeting the above
    conditions and passing technical feasibility and economic feasibility studies to form a project.

    Capitalized expenditures in the development phase are listed as development expenditures on the
    balance sheet and are converted into intangible assets from the date the project reaches its intended use.

    Capitalization conditions for specific R&D projects:

    Expenditures in the research stage are included in the current profits and losses when incurred. Before
    large-scale production, expenditures related to the design and testing phase of the final application of the



                                                           130
                                                                                             CSG Annual Report 2023



    production process are expenditures in the development phase. If the following conditions are met at the
    same time, they will be capitalized:

    The development of the production process has been fully demonstrated by the technical team;

     Management has approved the budget for production process development;

    The research and analysis of the preliminary market research shows that the products produced by the
    production process have market promotion capabilities;

    Have sufficient technical and financial support to carry out production process development activities and
    subsequent large-scale production; and the expenditure on production process development can be
    reliably collected. If it is impossible to distinguish between expenditures in the research stage and
    expenditures in the development stage, all R&D expenditures incurred will be included in the current profit
    and loss.

21、Asset impairment

    For subsidiaries’ long-term investments, fixed assets, construction in process, right-of-use assets,
    intangible assets, goodwill, etc. (excluding inventories, investment properties measured according to the
    fair value model, deferred tax assets, and financial assets) value, determined as follows:

    On the balance sheet date, it is judged whether there are any signs of possible impairment of the assets.
    If there are signs of impairment, the Group will estimate its recoverable amount and conduct an
    impairment test. Goodwill formed due to business combinations, intangible assets with indefinite useful
    lives and intangible assets that have not yet reached a usable state are subject to impairment testing
    every year regardless of whether there are signs of impairment.

    The recoverable amount is determined based on the higher of the asset's fair value less disposal costs
    and the present value of the asset's expected future cash flows. The Group estimates the recoverable
    amount on the basis of a single asset; if it is difficult to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual
    asset, the Group determines the recoverable amount of the asset group based on the asset group to
    which the asset belongs. The identification of an asset group is based on whether the main cash inflow
    generated by the asset group is independent of the cash inflows of other assets or asset groups.

    When the recoverable amount of an asset or asset group is lower than its book value, the Group will write
    down its book value to the recoverable amount, and the amount of the write-down will be included in the
    current profit and loss, and the corresponding asset impairment provision will be made.

    As far as the impairment test of goodwill is concerned, the book value of goodwill formed due to a business
    combination shall be apportioned to the relevant asset group in a reasonable manner from the date of
    purchase; if it is difficult to apportion it to the relevant asset group, it shall be apportioned to the relevant
    asset group. Related asset group combinations. The relevant asset group or asset group combination is
    an asset group or asset group combination that can benefit from the synergy effects of the business
    combination, and is no larger than the reporting segment determined by the group.

    During impairment testing, if there are signs of impairment in an asset group or combination of asset
    groups related to goodwill, first conduct an impairment test on the asset group or combination of asset
    groups that does not include goodwill, calculate the recoverable amount, and confirm the corresponding



                                                          131
                                                                                           CSG Annual Report 2023



    impairment. Then conduct an impairment test on the asset group or asset group combination containing
    goodwill, and compare its book value with the recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount is lower
    than the book value, the impairment loss of goodwill is recognized.

    Once the asset impairment loss is recognized, it will not be reversed in subsequent accounting periods.

22、Long-term prepaid expenses

    The long-term deferred expenses incurred by the Group are measured at actual cost and amortized
    evenly over the expected beneficial period. For long-term deferred expense items that cannot benefit
    future accounting periods, their amortized value shall be fully included in the current profit and loss.

23、Employee compensation


(1)Range of employee compensation

    Employee compensation refers to various forms of remuneration or compensation given by enterprises
    to obtain services provided by employees or to terminate labor relations. Employee compensation
    includes short-term compensation, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long-term
    employee benefits. Benefits provided by an enterprise to employees’ spouses, children, dependents,
    survivors of deceased employees and other beneficiaries are also employee benefits.

(2)Short-term compensation

    During the accounting period when employees provide services, the Group recognizes the actual
    employee wages, bonuses, social insurance premiums such as medical insurance premiums, work-
    related injury insurance premiums, maternity insurance premiums, and housing provident funds paid for
    employees based on prescribed standards and proportions as a liabilities and included in the current profit
    and loss or related asset costs.

(3)Post-employment benefits

    Post-employment benefit plans include defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. Among them,
    a defined contribution plan refers to a post-employment benefit plan in which the enterprise no longer
    bears further payment obligations after depositing a fixed fee into an independent fund; a defined benefit
    plan refers to a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan.

    Defined contribution plans

    Defined contribution plans include basic pension insurance, unemployment insurance, etc.

    During the accounting period when employees provide services, the deposit amount payable calculated
    according to the defined contribution plan is recognized as a liability and included in the current profit and
    loss or related asset costs.

(4)Termination benefits

    If the Group provides dismissal benefits to employees, the employee compensation liabilities arising from
    the dismissal benefits will be recognized at the earliest of the following two times and included in the
    current profit and loss: When the Group cannot unilaterally withdraw the dismissal benefits provided due
    to the termination of labor relations plan or layoff proposal; When the Group recognizes costs or expenses
    related to restructuring involving payment of termination benefits.

(5)Other long-term benefits

    Other long-term employee benefits provided by the Group to employees that meet the conditions of a
    defined contribution plan will be handled in accordance with the above-mentioned relevant regulations on
    defined contribution plans. If it is in compliance with the defined benefit plan, it shall be handled in
    accordance with the relevant provisions on the defined benefit plan mentioned above, but the "changes
    caused by the remeasurement of the net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan" in the relevant
    employee compensation costs shall be included in the current profit and loss or related Asset cost.

24、Provisions

    If the obligations related to contingencies meet the following conditions at the same time, the Group will
    recognize them as estimated liabilities:

    (1) The obligation is a current obligation borne by the Group;

    (2) The performance of this obligation is likely to result in the outflow of economic benefits from the Group;

    (3) The amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

    Estimated liabilities are initially measured based on the best estimate of the expenditure required to fulfill
    the relevant current obligations, and factors such as risks, uncertainties, and time value of money related
    to contingencies are comprehensively considered. If the time value of money has a significant impact, the
    best estimate is determined by discounting the relevant future cash outflows. The Group reviews the book
    value of estimated liabilities on the balance sheet date and adjusts the book value to reflect the current
    best estimate.

    If all or part of the expenses required to settle the recognized estimated liabilities are expected to be
    compensated by a third party or other parties, the compensation amount can only be recognized
    separately as an asset when it is basically certain that it will be received. The amount of compensation
    recognized shall not exceed the book value of the liability recognized.

25、Revenue


(1)General principles

    The Group recognizes revenue when it fulfills its performance obligations in the contract, that is, when
    the customer obtains control of the relevant goods or services.


                                                         133
                                                                                         CSG Annual Report 2023



    If the contract contains two or more performance obligations, the Group will allocate the transaction price
    to each individual performance obligation based on the relative proportion of the stand-alone selling price
    of the goods or services promised by each individual performance obligation on the contract
    commencement date. Revenue is measured at the transaction price of each individual performance
    obligation.

    When one of the following conditions is met, the performance obligation is performed within a certain
    period of time; otherwise, the performance obligation is performed at a certain point in time:

    ①When the Group performs the contract, the customer obtains and consumes the economic benefits
    brought by the Group's performance.

    ②Customers can control the goods under construction during the performance of the contract by the
    Group.

    ③The goods produced by the Group during the performance of the contract have irreplaceable uses,
    and the Group has the right to collect payment for the cumulative performance part completed so far
    during the entire contract period.

    For performance obligations fulfilled within a certain period of time, the Group recognizes revenue based
    on the performance progress within that period of time. When the progress of contract performance cannot
    be reasonably determined, if the costs incurred by the Group are expected to be compensated, revenue
    will be recognized based on the amount of costs incurred until the progress of contract performance can
    be reasonably determined.

    For performance obligations fulfilled at a certain point in time, the Group recognizes revenue at the point
    when the customer obtains control of the relevant goods or services. When determining whether a
    customer has obtained control of goods or services, the Group will consider the following signs:

    ①The Group has the current right to receive payment for the goods or services, that is, the customer has
    current payment obligations for the goods.

    ②The Group has transferred the legal ownership of the goods to the customer, which means that the
    customer already owns the legal ownership of the goods.

    ③The Group has physically transferred the goods to the customer, that is, the customer has physically
    taken possession of the goods.

    ④The Group has transferred the main risks and rewards of ownership of the commodity to the customer,
    that is, the customer has obtained the main risks and rewards of ownership of the commodity.

    ⑤The customer has accepted the goods or services.

    ⑥Other signs indicating that the customer has obtained control of the product.

(2)Specific method

    The Group's revenue mainly comes from the following business types: sales of products, external
    provision of consulting and processing services.



                                                       134
                                                                                    CSG Annual Report 2023



Products sold The Group produces and sells float glass, photovoltaic glass, engineering glass, solar
industry related products, electronic glass and display device, etc.

For domestic sales, the Group transports the products to the agreed delivery location in accordance with
the agreement or picks it up by the buyer. Revenue is recognized after the buyer confirms receipt or pick-
up.

For export sales, according to the trade terms stipulated in the sales contract, the Group recognizes
revenue after the export products go through export customs declaration procedures and are shipped in
accordance with the contract, or after they are shipped to the designated delivery location.

For solar energy and other industries' photovoltaic power generation revenue,, the Group recognizes the
electricity when it is supplied to the provincial power grid company where each electric field is located,
uses the settled electricity volume confirmed by both parties as the electricity sales for that month, and
uses the on-grid electricity price approved by the National Development and Reform Commission or the
electricity price agreed in the contract as the sales unit price.

The credit periods granted by the Group to customers in various industries are consistent with the
practices of various industries, and there is no significant financing component.

The Group provides product quality assurance for the products sold and recognizes corresponding
estimated liabilities. The Group does not provide any additional services or additional quality assurance,
so the product quality assurance does not constitute a separate performance obligation.

Glass products with sales return clauses, revenue recognition is limited to the amount of accumulated
recognized revenue that is unlikely to result in a significant reversal. The Group recognizes liabilities
based on the expected return amount, and at the same time, recognizes the balance as an asset based
on the book value of the goods expected to be returned when the goods are transferred, minus the
expected costs of recovering the goods (including the impairment of the value of the returned goods).

Provide consulting and processing services

The Group provides external consulting and processing services because customers obtain and consume
the economic benefits brought by the company's performance of the contract while the company performs
the contract. The Group recognizes revenue based on the progress of contract performance. The
progress of contract performance is determined based on the proportion of costs incurred to the estimated
total costs. On the balance sheet date, the Group re-estimates the performance progress of completed
services to reflect changes in performance.

When the Group recognizes revenue based on the progress of completed services, the portion for which
the Group has obtained the unconditional right to receive payment is recognized as accounts receivable,
and the remaining portion is recognized as contract assets. Accounts receivable and contract assets are
recognized as expected credit losses. Loss provisions are recognized as the basis; if the contract price
received or receivable by the Group exceeds the labor services completed, the excess will be recognized
as contract liabilities. The Group's contract assets and contract liabilities under the same contract are
presented on a net basis.

                                                                                          CSG Annual Report 2023



26、Contract costs

    Contract costs include incremental costs incurred to obtain the contract and contract performance costs.

    The incremental costs incurred to obtain the contract refer to costs that the company would not have
    incurred if it had not obtained the contract (such as sales commissions, etc.). If the cost is expected to be
    recovered, the company will recognize it as the contract acquisition cost and as an asset. Other expenses
    incurred by the Company to obtain the contract, except for the incremental costs expected to be recovered,
    are included in the current profits and losses when incurred.

    If the cost incurred to fulfill the contract does not fall within the scope of other accounting standards for
    enterprises such as inventory and meets the following conditions, the company will recognize it as an
    asset as the contract performance cost:

    ①The cost is directly related to a current or expected contract, including direct labor, direct materials,
    manufacturing overhead (or similar expenses), costs clearly borne by the customer, and other costs
    incurred solely because of the contract;

    ②This cost increases the company’s resources for fulfilling its performance obligations in the future;

    ③The cost is expected to be recovered.

    Assets recognized for contract acquisition costs and assets recognized for contract performance costs
    (hereinafter referred to as "assets related to contract costs" ) are amortized on the same basis as the
    recognition of revenue from goods or services related to the assets and included in the current profit and
    loss.

    When the book value of assets related to contract costs is higher than the difference between the following
    two items, the company makes impairment provisions for the excess and recognizes it as asset
    impairment losses:

    ①The remaining consideration that the company expects to obtain from the transfer of goods or services
    related to the asset;

    ②The estimated cost that will be incurred to transfer the relevant goods or services.

27、Government subsidies

    Government subsidies are recognized when the conditions attached to the government subsidies are met
    and can be received.

    Government subsidies for monetary assets are measured based on the amount received or receivable.
    Government subsidies for non-monetary assets are measured at fair value; if the fair value cannot be
    obtained reliably, they are measured at a nominal amount of 1 yuan.

    Government subsidies related to assets refer to government subsidies obtained by the Group for the
    purchase, construction or other formation of long-term assets; in addition, government subsidies related
    to income are regarded as government subsidies.



                                                        136
                                                                                                CSG Annual Report 2023



    For government documents that do not clearly stipulate the subsidy objects and can form long-term assets,
    the part of the government subsidy corresponding to the asset value shall be regarded as the government
    subsidy related to the asset, and the remaining part shall be regarded as the government subsidy related
    to income; if it is difficult to distinguish, the government subsidy shall be regarded as the government
    subsidy related to the asset. The whole is regarded as a government subsidy related to income.

    Government subsidies related to assets are recognized as deferred income and are included in profits
    and losses in installments according to a reasonable and systematic method during the use period of the
    relevant assets. If government subsidies related to income are used to compensate for relevant costs or
    losses that have already occurred, they will be included in the current profits and losses; if they are used
    to compensate for relevant costs or losses in subsequent periods, they will be included in deferred income
    and will be included in the relevant costs or losses. The loss is included in the current profit and loss
    during the period during which the loss is recognized. Government subsidies measured according to the
    nominal amount are directly included in the current profit and loss. The Group adopts a consistent
    approach to the same or similar government subsidy business.

    Government subsidies related to daily activities shall be included in other income according to the
    economic business essence. Government subsidies unrelated to daily activities are included in non-
    operating income.

    When a confirmed government subsidy needs to be returned, if the book value of the relevant assets is
    offset at the time of initial recognition, the book value of the assets is adjusted; if there is a balance of
    relevant deferred income, the Carrying Amount of the relevant deferred income is offset, and the excess
    is included in the current profit and loss; it is In other cases, it will be directly included in the current profit
    and loss.

28、Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities

    Income tax includes current income tax and deferred income tax. Except for adjustments to goodwill
    arising from business combinations, or deferred income taxes related to transactions or events directly
    included in owners' equity, which are included in owners' equity, they are all included in current profits and
    losses as income tax expenses.

    The Group adopts the balance sheet liability method to recognize deferred income tax based on the
    temporary differences between the book values of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date and
    their tax basis.

    Each taxable temporary difference is recognized as a related deferred income tax liability, unless the
    taxable temporary difference is generated in the following transactions:

    (1) Initial recognition of goodwill, or the initial recognition of assets or liabilities arising from a transaction
    with the following characteristics: the transaction is not a business combination, and the transaction
    affects neither accounting profits nor taxable income when the transaction occurs ( initial recognition
    (Except for individual transactions that result in equal amounts of taxable temporary differences and
    deductible temporary differences arising from the assets and liabilities) ;

    (2) For taxable temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates,
    the time of reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and the temporary differences are likely
    not to be reversed in the foreseeable future.


                                                            137

    For deductible temporary differences, deductible losses and tax credits that can be carried forward to
    future years, the Group shall use it to offset the deductible temporary differences, deductible losses and
    tax credits to the extent that it is probable that it will be available. The deferred income tax assets
    generated will be recognized to the limit of the future taxable income, unless the deductible temporary
    difference is generated in the following transactions:

    (1) The transaction is not a business combination, and when the transaction occurs, it affects neither
    accounting profits nor taxable income (a single transaction in which the initial recognition of assets and
    liabilities results in an equal amount of taxable temporary differences and deductible temporary
    differences are excepted);

    (2) For deductible temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and
    associates, and if the following conditions are met at the same time, the corresponding deferred income
    tax assets are recognized: the temporary differences are likely to be reversed in the foreseeable future,
    And it is likely to obtain taxable income in the future that can be used to offset deductible temporary
    differences.

    On the balance sheet date, the Group's deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are
    measured at the applicable tax rate during the period when the asset is expected to be recovered or the
    liability is settled, and the income tax impact of the expected method of recovering the asset or settling
    the liability on the balance sheet date is reflected.

    On the balance sheet date, the Group reviews the book value of deferred income tax assets. If it is
    probable that sufficient taxable income will not be available in future periods to offset the benefits of
    deferred tax assets, the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets will be reduced. The amount of the
    write-down is reversed when it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be obtained.

    On the balance sheet date, deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are presented
    as the net amount after offsetting when the following conditions are met at the same time:

    ( 1 ) The tax payer within the group has the legal right to settle current income tax assets and current
    income tax liabilities on a net basis;

    ( 2 ) Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are related to income taxes levied by
    the same tax collection and administration department on the same taxpayer within the group.

29、Leases


(1)Identification of leases

    On the contract inception date, the Group, as a lessee or lessor, evaluates whether the customer in the
    contract has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits generated from the use of the
    identified assets during the use period, and has the right to direct the use of the identified assets during
    the use period. If a party in a contract transfers the right to control the use of one or more identified assets
    within a certain period in exchange for consideration, the Group determines that the contract is a lease or
    contains a lease.

(2)The Group acts as lessee

    On the commencement date of the lease period, the Group recognizes right-of-use assets and lease
    liabilities for all leases, except for simplified short-term leases and low-value asset leases.

    The accounting policies for right-of-use assets are shown in Note.

    Lease liabilities are initially measured based on the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the
    beginning of the lease term using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If the interest rate implicit in the
    lease cannot be determined, the incremental borrowing rate is used as the discount rate. Lease payments
    include: fixed payments and substantive fixed payments, if there are lease incentives, the amount related
    to lease incentives is deducted; variable lease payments that depend on the index or ratio; the exercise
    price of the purchase option, provided that the lessee is reasonable It is certain that the option will be
    exercised; the amount required to be paid to exercise the option to terminate the lease, provided that the
    lease term reflects that the lessee will exercise the option to terminate the lease; and the amount expected
    to be paid based on the residual value of the guarantee provided by the lessee. Subsequently, the interest
    expense of the lease liability for each period during the lease term is calculated based on the fixed periodic
    interest rate and included in the current profit and loss. Variable lease payments that are not included in
    the measurement of lease liabilities are included in the current profit and loss when actually incurred.

    Short term lease

    A short-term lease refers to a lease with a lease term of no more than 12 months on the start date of the
    lease period, except for leases that include a purchase option.

    The Group will include the lease payments of short-term leases into the relevant asset costs or current
    profits and losses on a straight-line basis during each period of the lease term.

    Low value asset leasing

    Low-value asset leases refer to leases where the value of a single leased asset is less than 100,000 yuan
    when it is a brand-new asset.

    The Group will include the lease payments for low-value asset leases into the relevant asset costs or
    current profits and losses on a straight-line basis during each period of the lease term.

    For low-value asset leases, the Group chooses to adopt the above simplified treatment method based on
    the specific circumstances of each lease.

    Lease changes

    If a lease changes and the following conditions are met at the same time, the Group will account for the
    lease change as a separate lease: ① The lease change expands the scope of the lease by adding the
    right to use one or more leased assets; ② Increased The consideration is equivalent to the individual
    price of the extended portion of the lease, adjusted for the circumstances of the contract.

    If the lease change is not accounted for as a separate lease, on the effective date of the lease change,
    the Group re-allocates the consideration of the contract after the change, re-determines the lease term,




                                                         139
                                                                                           CSG Annual Report 2023



    and calculates it based on the changed lease payment and the revised discount rate. Present value
    remeasurement of the lease liability.

    If a change in the lease results in a reduction in the scope of the lease or a shortening of the lease period,
    the Group will accordingly reduce the book value of the right-of-use assets, and include the gains or
    losses related to the partial or complete termination of the lease into the current profits and losses.

    If other lease changes result in the remeasurement of lease liabilities, the Group will adjust the book value
    of the right-of-use assets accordingly.

(3)The Group acts as lessor

    When the Group acts as a lessor, leases that substantially transfer all risks and rewards related to asset
    ownership are recognized as finance leases, and leases other than finance leases are recognized as
    operating leases.

    Financial lease

    In financial leases, the Group's net lease investment on the date of the lease term is recorded as the
    accounting value of finance lease receivables. The net lease investment is the unguaranteed residual
    value and the lease receivables that have not been received on the date of the lease term are calculated
    based on the amount included in the lease. The sum of present values discounted with interest rates. As
    the lessor, the Group calculates and recognizes interest income for each period during the lease term
    based on fixed periodic interest rates. Variable lease payments obtained by the Group as a lessor that
    are not included in the measurement of the net lease investment are included in the current profit and
    loss when actually incurred.

    The derecognition and impairment of finance lease receivables shall be accounted for in accordance with
    the provisions of "Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and Measurement
    of Financial Instruments" and "Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 23 - Transfer of
    Financial Assets".

    Operating lease

    For rents in operating leases, the Group recognizes current profits and losses according to the straight-
    line method in each period during the lease term. The initial direct expenses incurred in connection with
    the operating lease shall be capitalized, amortized during the lease period on the same basis as the rental
    income recognition, and included in the current profit and loss in installments. Variable lease payments
    related to operating leases that are not included in the lease receipts are included in the current profit and
    loss when they actually occur.

    Lease changes

    If an operating lease changes, the Group will account for it as a new lease from the effective date of the
    change, and the amount of lease receipts received in advance or receivable related to the lease before
    the change is regarded as the amount of receipts from the new lease.

    If a financial lease changes and the following conditions are met at the same time, the Group will account
    for the change as a separate lease: ① The change expands the scope of the lease by adding the right


                                                         140
                                                                                             CSG Annual Report 2023



    to use one or more leased assets; ② The increased consideration The amount is equivalent to the
    individual price of the extended portion of the lease adjusted for the circumstances of the contract.

    If a financial lease is changed and is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Group will treat the
    changed lease under the following circumstances: ① If the change takes effect on the lease
    commencement date, the lease will be classified as an operating lease, and the Group will From the
    effective date of the lease change, it will be accounted for as a new lease, and the net lease investment
    before the effective date of the lease change will be used as the book value of the leased asset; ② If the
    change takes effect on the lease commencement date, the lease will be classified as financing For leases,
    the Group shall conduct accounting treatment in accordance with the provisions of "Accounting Standards
    for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments" regarding
    modification or renegotiation of contracts.

30、Right-of-use assets


(1)Right-of-use asset recognition conditions

    Right-of-use assets refer to the Group's rights as a lessee to use the leased assets during the lease term.

    On the commencement date of the lease term, the right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost. This
    cost includes: the initial measurement amount of the lease liability; the lease payment amount paid on or
    before the start date of the lease term, if there is a lease incentive, deduct the amount related to the lease
    incentive that has been enjoyed; the initial direct costs incurred by the Group as a lessee; The Group, as
    the lessee, expects to incur costs for dismantling and removing the leased assets, restoring the site where
    the leased assets are located, or restoring the leased assets to the state agreed upon in the lease terms.
    As a lessee, the Group recognizes and measures costs such as demolition and restoration in accordance
    with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 13 - Contingencies. Adjustments are made
    subsequently for any subsequent remeasurement of the lease liability.

(2)Depreciation method for right-of-use assets

    The Group uses the straight-line method to calculate depreciation. If the Group, as the lessee, can
    reasonably determine that it will obtain ownership of the leased asset when the lease term expires,
    depreciation will be accrued over the remaining useful life of the leased asset. If it is not reasonably certain
    that the ownership of the leased asset will be obtained at the expiration of the lease term, depreciation
    will be accrued during the shorter of the lease term and the remaining useful life of the leased asset.

(3)Note for the impairment testing method and impairment provision accrual method for right-of-use assets.


31、Safety production costs

    According to relevant documents from the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Work Safety,
    the Group's subsidiaries engaged in the production and sales of polysilicon are based on the actual
    operating income of the previous year and use an excess regressive method to withdraw production safety
    expenses monthly:



                                                          141
                                                                                           CSG Annual Report 2023



    (a) If the operating income is 10 million yuan or less, 4.5% shall be withdrawn;

    (b) The portion of operating income between RMB 10 million and RMB 100 million (inclusive) shall be
    withdrawn at 2.25%;

    (c) The portion of operating income between RMB 100 million and RMB 1 billion (inclusive) shall be
    withdrawn at 0.55 % ;

    (d) For the portion of operating income above RMB 1 billion, 0.2 % will be withdrawn.

    Safety production expenses are mainly used to improve, transform and maintain safety protection
    equipment and facilities. Safety production expenses are included in the cost of related products or current
    profits and losses when withdrawn, and are also recorded in special reserve accounts. When in use,
    expenditures within the prescribed scope of use will be directly offset against the special reserve when
    the expenditures are incurred; for capital expenditures, expenditures incurred through the accounts of
    projects under construction will be used until the project is completed and reaches the scheduled
    availability. When in use, they are transferred to fixed assets, and the special reserves are offset according
    to the cost of forming the fixed assets, and the corresponding amount of accumulated depreciation is
    recognized at the same time. This fixed asset will no longer be depreciated in future periods.

32、Significant accounting judgments and estimates

    The Group continuously evaluates the important accounting estimates and key assumptions adopted
    based on historical experience and other factors, including reasonable expectations for future events. The
    important accounting estimates and key assumptions that are likely to cause a significant adjustment in
    the book value of assets and liabilities in the next fiscal year are as follows:

    Classification of financial assets

    The Group's significant judgments involved in determining the classification of financial assets include
    analysis of business models and contractual cash flow characteristics.

    The Group determines the business model for managing financial assets at the level of financial asset
    portfolios. Factors considered include the way to evaluate and report the performance of financial assets
    to key management personnel, the risks that affect the performance of financial assets and their
    management methods, and relevant business managers. How to get paid, etc.

    When the Group evaluates whether the contractual cash flows of financial assets are consistent with the
    basic lending arrangements, it makes the following main judgments: whether the time distribution or
    amount of the principal may change during the duration due to early repayment; whether the interest is
    only Includes time value of money, credit risk, other fundamental lending risks and consideration against
    costs and profits. For example, whether the amount of early repayment only reflects the unpaid principal
    and interest based on the unpaid principal, as well as reasonable compensation paid for early termination
    of the contract.

    Measurement of expected credit losses on accounts receivable

    The Group calculates the expected credit losses of accounts receivable through the default risk exposure
    of accounts receivable and the expected credit loss rate, and determines the expected credit loss rate


                                                         142
                                                                                      CSG Annual Report 2023



based on the probability of default and the loss given default rate. When determining the expected credit
loss rate, the Group uses internal historical credit loss experience and other data, and adjusts historical
data based on current conditions and forward-looking information. When considering forward-looking
information, the Group uses indicators including the risk of economic downturn, changes in the external
market environment, technical environment and customer conditions. The Group regularly monitors and
reviews assumptions related to the calculation of expected credit losses.

Impairment of Fixed Assets and Construction in Progress

As of the balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether there are any indications of impairment for
non-current assets other than financial assets. When there are indications that the carrying amount of an
asset cannot be recovered, impairment testing is conducted.

Impairment occurs when the carrying amount of an asset or asset group exceeds its recoverable amount,
which is the higher of the net amount after deducting disposal costs from fair value and the present value
of estimated future cash flows. The net amount after deducting disposal costs from fair value is determined
by referencing the sales agreement prices of similar assets in fair transactions or observable market prices,
minus incremental costs directly attributable to the asset's disposal. Significant judgments are made
regarding the expected future cash flow present value, including the asset's (or asset group's) output,
selling price, relevant operating costs, and the discount rate used in the present value calculation. The
Company utilizes all relevant information available to estimate the recoverable amount, including
forecasts of output, selling prices, and related operating costs based on reasonable and supportable
assumptions.

Goodwill impairment

The Group assesses whether goodwill is impaired at least annually. This requires an estimate of the value
in use of the asset group to which goodwill is assigned. When estimating value in use, the Group needs
to estimate future cash flows from the asset group and select an appropriate discount rate to calculate
the present value of future cash flows.

R&D expenditure

When determining the amount to be capitalized, management must make assumptions regarding the
expected future cash generation of the asset, the discount rate that should be applied, and the expected
period of benefit.

Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets should be recognized for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that
sufficient taxable profits will be available against which the losses can be utilised. This requires
management to use a lot of judgment to estimate the timing and amount of future taxable profits, combined
with tax planning strategies, to determine the amount of deferred income tax assets that should be
recognized.

33、Changes in important accounting policies and accounting estimates


(1)Important changes in accounting policies

   Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises Interpretation No. 16

    The Ministry of Finance issued the "Interpretation No. 16 of Accounting Standards for Business
    Enterprises" (Financial Accounting [2022] No. 31) in November 2022 (hereinafter referred to as
    "Interpretation No. 16").

    Interpretation No. 16 stipulates that for a company that is not a business combination, the transaction

    and the initial recognition of assets and liabilities results in equal amounts of taxable temporary differences
    and For a single transaction with deductible temporary differences, taxable temporary differences and
    deductible temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities shall be
    determined in accordance with relevant provisions such as "Accounting Standards for Business
    Enterprises No. 18 - Income Tax". The corresponding deferred income tax liabilities and deferred income
    tax assets are recognized respectively when the transaction occurs. For the above-mentioned
    transactions that occurred between the beginning of the earliest period for the presentation of financial
    statements when the above provisions are first implemented and the implementation date of this
    interpretation, the enterprise shall, in accordance with the above provisions, adjust the cumulative impact
    number to the opening retained earnings and other expenses for the earliest period for presentation of
    the financial statements in accordance with the above provisions. Relevant financial statement items. The
    above accounting treatment regulations will be effective from 1 January, 2023.

 Note: This fund is a subsidy fund given to the group by the government. The company entrusted its wholly-
 owned subsidiary Yichang CSG Silicon Materials Co., Ltd. to collect the fund. The Yichang High-tech
 Zone Management Committee also paid the full amount to Yichang CSG Silicon in 2014. After receiving
 the funds, Yichang CSG Silicon Materials Co., Ltd. transferred the full amount to Yichang Hongtai Real
 Estate Co., Ltd. without appropriate approval by the then company's board of directors and other
 competent authorities. Yichang CSG Silicon Materials Co., Ltd. received the above funds from February
 21, 2014 to April 28, 2014 and then transferred the entire amount to Yichang Hongtai Real Estate Co.,
 Ltd.

 The company filed an infringement compensation lawsuit against Zeng Nan and others and Yichang
 Hongtai Real Estate Co., Ltd. on December 15, 2021, and the Shenzhen Intermediate People's Court
 officially accepted the lawsuit on January 28, 2022. The first instance of the case was completed in
 Shenzhen Intermediate People's Court on June 21, 2022, and is currently awaiting judgment.

the period

Note: Yichang Display, a subsidiary of the Group, conducted a fixed asset impairment test in this period.
The recoverable amount is determined based on the present value of the expected future cash flows. The
present value of the asset group’s expected future cash flows is based on the asset group’s continued
use and final value. The estimated future cash flow generated during disposal is determined by selecting
the appropriate discount rate to discount the amount.

Among them, the Yichang Display discount rate is selected using the pre-tax weighted average capital
cost, and the present value of the pre-tax cash flow using the pre-tax discount rate = the discounted value
of the after-tax cash flow using the after-tax discount rate is calculated.The after-tax discount rate uses
the weighted average cost of capital valuation model ("WACC"), and the calculated result is 8.11%.

The forecast period is from 2024 to 2031. It is determined based on the estimated useful life of the main
production line equipment being 8 years.

    the fair value. The fair value was mainly evaluated using the replacement cost method. Appraisal value =
    full replacement price × new value Rate.

    The full replacement price generally includes equipment purchase fees, transportation and miscellaneous
    fees, installation and commissioning fees, basic fees, upfront and other expenses, and capital costs; the
    content and method of calculating expenses (costs) other than equipment purchase fees are based on
    the characteristics of the relevant equipment and the evaluation process. The price caliber and transaction
    conditions of the equipment obtained are determined.

    Newness rate = remaining useful life of the equipment ÷ (used years of the equipment + remaining useful
    life of the equipment) × 100%.

    The disposal costs mainly include stamp duty, legal fees, property rights transaction fees, appraisal fees
    and other expenses; according to the Stamp Duty Law of the People's Republic of China, the "Stamp
    Duty Items and Rates Table" and the "Opinions on Further Standardizing Lawyer Service Charges" (Si
    Fa Tong [Sifa Tong] 2021] No. 87. According to the "Notice of the Guangdong Provincial Price Bureau on
    the Charging Standards for Property Rights Transaction Services" (Guangdong Price [1999] No. 282) and
    the assessment industry charging standards, the total disposal fee is calculated at 5% after

    term payables. Details of each financial instrument have been disclosed in the relevant notes. The risks
    associated with these financial instruments and the risk management policies adopted by the Group to
    mitigate these risks are described below. The management of the Group manages and monitors these
    risk exposures to ensure that the above risks are controlled within limited limits.

1、Risk management objectives and policies

    The main risks caused by the Group's financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk, and market risk
    (including exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and commodity price risk).

    The Group's overall risk management plan addresses the unpredictability of financial markets and strives
    to reduce potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance.

    The Group has formulated risk management policies to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Group,
    set appropriate risk acceptance levels and design corresponding internal control procedures to monitor
    the Group's risk levels. The Group will regularly reassess these risk management policies and related
    internal control systems to adapt to changes in market conditions or the Group's operating activities. The
    internal audit department also regularly and irregularly checks whether the implementation of the internal
    control system complies with the risk management policy.

    The Board of Directors is responsible for planning and establishing the Group's risk management structure,
    formulating the Group's risk management policies and relevant guidelines, and supervising the
    implementation of risk management measures. The Group has formulated risk management policies to
    identify and analyze the risks faced by the Group. These risk management policies clearly define specific
    risks and cover many aspects such as market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk management. The Group
    regularly assesses changes in the market environment and the Group's operating activities to determine
    whether to update risk management policies and systems. The Group's risk management is carried out
    by relevant departments in accordance with policies approved by the Board of Directors. These
    departments identify, evaluate and avoid relevant risks through close cooperation with other business
    departments of the Group.

    business portfolios, and reduces risks concentrated in a single industry, specific region or specific
    counterparty by formulating corresponding risk management policies.

                                                                                        CSG Annual Report 2023




(1)Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that the counterparty fails to perform its contractual obligations, resulting in
financial losses to the Group.

The Group manages credit risks by portfolio classification. Credit risk mainly arises from bank deposits,
bills receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, etc.

The Group's bank deposits are mainly deposited in state-owned banks and other large and medium-sized
listed banks. The Group expects that there will be no significant credit risk in bank deposits.

For notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables and long-term receivables, the Group sets
relevant policies to control credit risk exposure. The Group evaluates the customer's credit qualifications
and sets corresponding credit periods based on the customer's financial status, credit history and other
factors such as current market conditions. The Group will regularly monitor customer credit records. For
customers with poor credit records, the Group will use written reminders, shorten the credit period or
cancel the credit period to ensure that the Group's overall credit risk is within a controllable range. .

The debtors of the Group's accounts receivable are customers located in different industries and regions.
The Group continues to conduct credit assessments on the financial status of accounts receivable and
purchases credit guarantee insurance when appropriate.

The Group's maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amount of each financial asset on the
balance sheet. The Group does not provide any other guarantees that may expose the Group to credit
risk. Among the Group's accounts receivable, those from the top five customers(mainly photovoltaic glass
customers) accounted for 39% of the Group's total accounts receivable (2022: 34%).These customers
are all industry leaders with good credit, thus reducing the risk of accounts receivable recovery for this
group. Among the Group's other receivables, those from the top five companies in terms of arrears Other
receivables account for 87% of the Group's total other receivables (2022: 87%).

(2)Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Group encounters a shortage of funds when fulfilling its obligations
to settle by delivering cash or other financial assets.

When managing liquidity risk, the Group maintains and monitors cash and cash equivalents that
management considers sufficient to meet the Group's operating needs and reduce the impact of cash
flow fluctuations. The management of the Group monitors the use of bank borrowings and ensures
compliance with borrowing agreements. At the same time, obtain commitments from major financial
institutions to provide sufficient backup funds to meet short-term and long-term funding needs.

At the end of the period, the financial liabilities and off-balance sheet guarantee items held by the Group
are analyzed based on the maturity period of the undiscounted remaining contract cash flows as follows

instruments fluctuate due to market price changes, including interest rate risk, exchange rate risk and
other price risks.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will
fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk can arise from both recognized interest-
bearing financial instruments and unrecognized financial instruments (such as certain loan commitments).

The Group's interest rate risk mainly arises from long-term interest-bearing debt such as long-term bank
borrowings and bonds payable. Financial liabilities with floating interest rates expose the Group to cash
flow interest rate risk, while financial liabilities with fixed interest rates expose the Group to fair value
interest rate risk. The Group determines the relative proportions of fixed-rate and floating-rate contracts
based on the prevailing market environment, and maintains an appropriate mix of fixed-rate and floating-
rate instruments through regular review and monitoring.

The Group pays close attention to the impact of interest rate changes on the Group's interest rate risk.
The Group currently does not adopt an interest rate hedging policy. However, management is responsible
for monitoring interest rate risk and will consider hedging significant interest rate risk if necessary. An
increase in interest rates will increase the cost of new interest-bearing debt and the interest expense of
the Group's unpaid interest-bearing debt with floating interest rates, and will have a significant adverse
impact on the Group's financial results. The management will base on the latest market trends
Adjustments are made in a timely manner to the situation, and these adjustments may be through interest
rate swap arrangements to reduce interest rate risk.

The interest-bearing financial instruments held by the Group are as follows (unit: yuan):

For financial instruments held on the balance sheet date that expose the Group to fair value interest rate
risk, the impact on net profit and shareholders' equity in the above sensitivity analysis is based on the
assumption that interest rates change on the balance sheet date. The impact of remeasurement of
financial instruments. For floating rate non-derivative instruments held on the balance sheet date that
expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk, the impact on net profit and shareholders' equity in the
above sensitivity analysis is the impact of the above interest rate changes on the annual estimated interest
expense or income. Impact. The previous year's analysis was based on the same assumptions and
methodology.

Exchange rate risk

Exchange rate risk refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will
fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Exchange rate risk can arise from financial
instruments denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency of accounting.

Exchange rate risk is mainly due to the impact of the Group's financial position and cash flows on foreign
exchange rate fluctuations. Except for the subsidiaries established in Hong Kong that hold assets settled
in Hong Kong dollars, the proportion of foreign currency assets and liabilities held by the Group to the

    overall assets and liabilities is not significant. Therefore, the Group believes that the exchange rate risk it
    faces is not significant.

    At the end of the period , the amounts of foreign currency financial assets and foreign currency financial
    liabilities held by the Group converted into RMB are listed as follows (unit: RMB ) :

    The Group pays close attention to the impact of exchange rate changes on the Group's exchange rate
    risk. Management is responsible for monitoring exchange rate risk and will consider hedging significant
    exchange rate risk if necessary.

    As of December 31, 2023, for the Group's various U.S. dollar financial assets and U.S. dollar financial
    liabilities, if the RMB appreciates or depreciates by 10% against the U.S. dollar and other factors remain
    unchanged, the Group's net profit will decrease or increase by approximately RMB 22,984,911.
    (December 31, 2022: decrease or increase of approximately RMB 11,207,006).

2、Capital management

    The goal of the Group's capital management policy is to ensure that the Group can continue to operate,
    thereby providing returns to shareholders and benefiting other stakeholders, while maintaining an optimal
    capital structure to reduce capital costs.

    In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust financing methods, adjust the
    amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares and other
    equity instruments, or sell assets to reduce debt.

    The Group monitors the capital structure based on the asset-liability ratio (i.e., total liabilities divided by
    total assets). At the end of the period, the Group's asset-liability ratio was 52% (end of the previous year :
    48%).


    X. Fair value


    According to the lowest level input value that is of great significance to the overall measurement in fair
    value measurement, the fair value hierarchy can be divided into:

    Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.




                                                          195

Level 2: The use of observable inputs other than quoted market prices for the asset or liability in Level
1, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., as derived from prices).

Level 3: The asset or liability uses any input value that is not based on observable market data
(unobservable input value).

(1)Items and amounts measured at fair value

At the end of the period, assets and liabilities measured at fair value are listed as follows according to
the above three levels:

                                           Level 1 fair value Level 2 fair value    Level 3 fair value

During the year, there was no conversion between Level 1 and Level 2 in the fair value measurement of
the Group's financial assets and financial liabilities, nor was there any transfer into or out of Level 3.

For financial instruments traded in active markets, the Group determines its fair value based on active
market quotes; for financial instruments not traded in active markets, the Group uses valuation
techniques to determine its fair value. The valuation models used are mainly discounted cash flow
models and market comparable company models. The input values of valuation technology mainly
include risk-free interest rates, benchmark interest rates, exchange rates, credit spreads, liquidity
premiums, lack of liquidity discounts, etc.
