Particular about subsidiaries obtained or disposed in report period □ Applicable √ Not applicable Notes of main subsidiaries and joint-stock companies Affected by the Country’s macroeconomic policies, the products of the flat glass industry rose in selling price this year, when the output increased, the profit increased. The price of raw materials for the architectural glass industry rose, so a certain level of profit was maintained by measures such as cost reduction and efficiency increase. Affected by price fluctuations in the industrial chain market, the profit of solar energy section were under pressure. The business and process technology of the subsidiary company of electronic glass Qingyuan Energy-saving, as well as display business were stable, and the entire production chain production line was 28 CSG Annual Report 2017 opened up. The output and sales volume of each product increased significantly, so the profit increased. VIII. Structured main bodies controlled by the Company □ Applicable √ Not applicable IX. Outlook of the Company’s future development 1. Tendency of development of the industries the Company involved Flat glass industry In 2017, under the background of supply-side reform, the efforts to cut overcapacity of flat glass industry further intensified, especially more stringent environmental protection, energy consumption and other comprehensive standards were imposed in the second half of the year, which accelerated the elimination of backward production capacity. Downstream market, affected by real estate regulatory policy, had a slackening demand growth. Overall, the supply and demand in glass industry was basically balanced with a rise in profitability. In 2018, it is predicated that the real estate policy will not be eased, which means that the demand of glass will be mostly the same as 2017. As for the supply, production capacity will only fall down under the continuing policy of overcapacity cut. More stringent emission standards probably implementing and environmental taxes imposing will increase environmental protection costs of glass industry, resulting in a rise in market prices, which is beneficiary to CSG who always lays emphasis on environmental protection and possesses related equipment. Architectural glass industry As the national economy enters “New Normal”, significant slowdown in fixed asset investment and skyrocket price in upstream float glass made overall profitability of architectural glass industry decline. The architectural glass industry is facing a more severe market situation in the short term. But in the long run, energy-saving glass is the key of building energy conservation whose penetration has been over 80% in developed countries but less than 15% in China so far. In recent years, Chinese government has expanded more efforts to popularize green building. According to Action Plan of Promoting Production and Application of Green Building Material jointly issued by Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the ratio of green building material applied will be significantly increased and its quality will be improved dramatically. The proportion of green building material will take up 30% in new building, 50% in green building, 70% in pilot project, and 80% in renovating existing building. High-end energy saving glass as an important part in green building has a huge market demand and the prospects for its development are worth looking forward to. Solar energy PV industry A continuing rebound from 2012 has driven photovoltaic industry to a booming phrase. China’s PV market has ranked NO.1 globally for five consecutive years while the production of PV components the global number one for eleven consecutive years, both of which made China worthy of the name “The Strongest Country in Producing and Applying PV Products”. Up to the end of 2017, PV capacity in China reached 130GW, surpassing the basic objective in “13th Five-Year Plan” of Energy Development that realizing 110GW of solar power generation in 2020. Driven by the national green energy policy and skyrocket in PV market, China’s PV industry will continue to expand. According to “13th Five-Year Plan of Solar Energy Development”, it is expected to achieve grid parity through PV by 2020. Thus the technical revolution will be the main theme and the driving force for the following development of PV industry, which means that the industry competition will be more intense and the industry shuffle will intensify. The industry resource and advantage will integrate into the enterprises with innovative technology and strong power, thus “the stronger are getting stronger”. Electronic glass and display device industry 29 CSG Annual Report 2017 In reference to the industry forecast presented by Touch Display Research, the operating revenue of displayer will continue to grow globally in the following ten years but the growth will slow down gradually. In this process, OLED whose display technology is the most competitive will gradually hold the dominant position in the whole industry. Looking at the analysis given by research institution HIS, we can find that the conventional IFT-LCD has been in an oversupply state and the manufacturers are carrying out the price war. Instead, the conventional and flexible OLED hasn’t been popularized, so the enterprises who master its technology of mass production will take up the top of blue sea market. With the development and maturity of OLED technology, its market quota will expand between 2018 and 2020, especially the technology of flexible OLED who has a folding intelligent terminal form will be the revolutionary technology and give itself an advantage in the future. Ultrathin electronic glass is one of the key materials of touch display industry, its core technology was mastered by few developed countries in the past and its high-end market has been monopolized by foreign enterprises such as Corning and Asahi Glass. As the expansion of capacity in domestic ultrathin electronic glass enterprises represented by CSG, the product’s quality and performance have been improved and promoted constantly, thus domestic brands have gradually replaced foreign ones in medium and high market. At present, though display industry has pulled through the period of explosive growth and marched into market stability, the fast promotion of 5G communication network technique is expected to drive the increasing demands of double-sided glass for mobile phones in the next few years, which will be the new opportunity and chance for domestic ultrathin glass enterprises to develop. 2. Development Strategy The future development strategy of the Company is continuing to deepen culture and strengthen advantageous businesses of the Company such as flat glass, architectural glass, solar energy PV and electronic glass and display devices. Through management improvement, market integration, acceleration of internationalization, realize leap-forward development of all business sectors of the Company, it will greatly improve the industrial position of all sectors, and development into a respected international first-class enterprise. 3.

Thereinto, the administration committee of Yichang Hi-tech Industrial Area committed to offer a special government subsidy at RMB171.00 million to CSG, which should be used for the talent introduction and resettlement by CSG in Yichang area. According to provisions of agreements alike, the company commissioned CSG (Yichang) Silicon Material Co., Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of CSG, to receive such funds. The administration committee of Yichang Hi-tech Industrial Area has appropriated full amount of such funds to CSG (Yichang) Silicon Material Co., Ltd.in the year of 2014. Now, it is found out that, after receiving the above subsidy funds from the government of Yichang, CSG (Yichang) Silicon Material Co., Ltd., not subject to the appropriable review and approval of involved authorities including the board of directors at that time, immediately transferred such funds in full to Yichang Hongtai Properties Co., Ltd, which is jointly held and indirectly controlled by some former natural top executives of our company and has no ownership relationship with our company. In that year, CSG did not carry out any accounting treatment and disclosure in financial statements at the level of headquarters or in the consolidated financial statements. The company attached great importance to this problem. First, organized a special internal verification on the issue, fully understood the relevant information, and interviewed the relevant government departments to understand the nature and purpose of such government subsidy and related provisions on the use of such funds; Secondly, strengthened training and publicity of information disclosure rules, and enhanced training and publicity to top management in the aspect of supervision rules and professional ethics; Thirdly, integrated the internal control system of the company and strengthened internal supervision. As of the issuance date of the report, the company did not find other internal control information which might have a significant impact on the investors’ understanding of the internal control evaluation report or their evaluation of internal control of the company or on the investment decisions made by investors.

Other information The management layer of the Company (hereinafter referred to as the management layer) shall be responsible for other information, including the information covered in the financial report, but excludes financial statements and our audit report. Our audit opinions on financial statements do not cover other information; we will not make the authentication conclusion on other information in any form. Combining our audit of the financial statement, our responsibility is to read other information, during which, we shall consider that whether other information has any significant difference with the financial statement or the circumstance we know during the audit or is there any significant misstatement. Based on the work we already executed, if we confirm that there are significant misstatements in other information, we shall report such a fact. On such aspect, there is nothing to report. 88 V. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management of the Company is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing financial statements, the management layer is responsible for assessing the Company's sustained business capability, disclosing matters related to continue operating,using the going-concern assumption unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The governance layer is responsible for supervising the financial reporting process of the company. VI. The responsibility of Certified Public Accountants for the financial statement auditing. Our objective is to obtain reasonable assurance on whether there is no misstatement in overall financial statements caused by fraud or error, and issue the audit report with audit opinions. Reasonable assurance is the high-level assurance, but it can’t assure that a certain major misstatement can be always found when auditing according to the audit standard. The misstatement may be caused by malpractices or error. If the misstatements within the rational expectations may affect the economic decision of the financial statement user according to the financial statement, it shall be deemed that the misstatement is significant. During the process of conducting the audit work according to audit standards, we apply professional judgment and keep professional skepticism. Meanwhile, we also perform the following tasks: (1) Identify and Estimate the significant misstatement risks of the financial statement due to the malpractices and error, design and implement the audit procedures to respond those risks, and obtain adequate and proper audit evidence serving as the basis of publishing the audit opinions. Since malpractices may involve in collusion, falsification, intentional omission, misrepresentation or overriding the internal control, the risk of failing to detect a significant misstatement due to malpractices is higher than the risk of failing to detect a significant misstatement due to the error. (2) Understand the internal control related to audit, so as to design appropriate audit procedures. (3) Estimate the appropriateness of the accounting policies selected by the management layer, and the rationality of making accounting estimate and relevant disclosures. (4) Draw a conclusion on the appropriateness of the going concern assumption used by the management layer. Meanwhile, according to the obtained audit evidence, it may cause to come to the conclusion that there are substantial doubtable events or major uncertainty for the sustainable operation ability of the Company. In case that we come to the conclusion that there is a significant uncertainty, the audit standards require us to remind the users of the statements to pay attention to relevant disclosures in the financial statements in the audit report; In case of any insufficient disclosure, we shall give modified opinions. Our conclusion is based on the available information up to the audit report day. However, the future events or circumstances may cause the Company cannot continue to operate. (5) Estimate the overall presentation, structure and content (disclosure included) of the financial statements, and Estimate whether the financial statements fairly reflect relevant transactions and matters. (6) Acquire adequate and appropriate audit evidences on the financial information of the entity or business activities of the Company, and give audit opinions on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for guiding, supervising and executing the audit of the Group, and take all responsibilities for the audit opinions. We communicate with the governance layer about the audit scope, schedule, significant audit findings and other matters within the plan, including the noteworthy internal control defects recognized by us during the audit. We also provide statements to the governance layer on the compliance with the professional ethics requirement related to the independence, and communicate with the governance layer on all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be considered to affect our independence, as well as relevant preventive measures. From the matters that we have communicated with the governance layer, we confirm the most important matters for the audit of the current financial statements, and thus constitute the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our audit report, 89 unless laws and regulations prohibit the public disclosure of these matters, or in rare cases, if it is reasonably expected that the negative consequences of communicating a matter in the audit report will surpass the benefits in the public interests, we confirm that the matter shall not be communicated in the audit report.

(4) ecording currency The recording currency is Renminbi (RMB).The economic environment of subsidiaries (China Southern Glass(Hong Kong) Limited, Hong Kong Southern Glass Trading co., Limited) determines their recording currency is Hongkong dollar. This report ‘s recording currency is Renminbi (RMB). (5) usiness combinations (a) Business combinations involving enterprises under common control The consideration paid and net assets obtained by the absorbing party in a business combination are measured at book value. The difference between book value of the net assets obtained from the combination and book value of the consideration paid for the combination is treated as an adjustment to capital surplus (share premium). If the capital surplus (share premium) is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the remaining balance is adjusted against retained earnings. Costs directly attributable to the combination are included in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Transaction costs associated with the issue of equity or debt securities for the business combination are included in the initially recognised amounts of the equity or debt securities. (b) Business combinations involving enterprises not under common control The cost of combination and identifiable net assets obtained by the acquirer in a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Where the cost of the combination exceeds the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets, the difference is recognised as goodwill; where the cost of combination is lower than the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets, the difference is recognised in profit or loss for the current period. Costs directly attributable to the combination are included in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Transaction costs associated with the issue of equity or debt securities for the business combination are included in the initially recognised amounts of the equity or debt securities. (6) reparation of consolidated financial statements The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and all of its subsidiaries.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] date that such control ceases. For a subsidiary that is acquired in a business combination involving enterprises under common control, it is included in the consolidated financial statements from the date when it, together with the Company, comes under common control of the 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (6) Preparation of consolidated financial statements (Cont’d) ultimate controlling party. The portion of the net profits realised before the combination date is presented separately in the consolidated income statement. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, where the accounting policies and the accounting periods of the Company and subsidiaries are inconsistent, the financial statements of the subsidiaries are adjusted in accordance with the accounting policies and the accounting period of the Company. For subsidiaries acquired from business combinations involving enterprises not under common control, the individual financial statements of the subsidiaries are adjusted based on the fair value of the identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. All significant intra-group balances, transactions and unrealised profits are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The portion of subsidiaries’ equity and the portion of a subsidiaries’ net profits and losses and comprehensive incomes for the period not attributable to Company are recognised as minority interests and presented separately in the consolidated financial statements under equity, net profits and total comprehensive income respectively. Unrealised profits and losses resulting from the sales of assets by the Company to its subsidiaries are fully eliminated against net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company. Unrealised profits and losses resulting from the sales of assets by a subsidiary to the Company are eliminated and allocated between net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company and non-controlling interests in accordance with the allocation proportion of the parent company in the subsidiary. Unrealised profits and losses resulting from the sales of assets by one subsidiary to another are eliminated and allocated between net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company and non-controlling interests in accordance with the allocation proportion of the parent in the subsidiary. After the control over the subsidiary has been gained, whole or partial minority equities of the subsidiary owned by minority shareholders are acquired from the subsidiary’s minority shareholders. In the consolidated financial statements, the subsidiary's assets and liabilities are reflected with amount based on continuous calculation starting from the acquisition date or consolidation date. Capital surplus is adjusted according to the difference between newly increased long-term equity investment arising from acquisition of minority equity and the share of net assets calculated based on current shareholding ratio that the parent company is entitled to. The share is subject to continuous calculation starting from the acquisition date or consolidation date. If the capital surplus (capital premium or share capital premium) is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the remaining balance is adjusted against retained earnings. If the accounting treatment of a transaction which considers the Group as an accounting entity is different from that considers the Company or its subsidiaries as an accounting entity, it is adjusted from the perspective of the Group. (7) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits that can be readily drawn on demand, and short-term and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. (8) Foreign currency transaction (a) Foreign currency transaction Foreign currency transactions are translated into RMB using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) - 103 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] (8) Foreign currency transaction (Cont’d) At the balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into RMB using the spot exchange rates on the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from these translations are recognised in profit or loss for the current period, except for those attributable to foreign currency borrowings that have been taken out specifically for the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, which are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at historical costs are translated at the balance sheet date using the spot exchange rates at the date of the transactions. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash is presented separately in the cash flow statement. (b) Translation of foreign currency financial statements The asset and liability items in the balance sheets for overseas operations are translated at the spot exchange rates on the balance sheet date. Among the shareholders’ equity items, the items other than “undistributed profits” are translated at the spot exchange rates of the transaction dates. The income and expense items in the income statements of overseas operations are translated at the spot exchange rates of the transaction dates. The differences arising from the above translation are presented separately in the shareholders’ equity. The cash flows of overseas operations are translated at the spot exchange rates on the dates of the cash flows. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash is presented separately in the cash flow statement. (9) Financial instrument (a) Financial assets (i) Classification of financial assets Financial assets are classified into the following categories at initial recognition: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, receivables, available-for-sale financial assets and held-to-maturity investments. The classification of financial assets depends on the Group’s intention and ability to hold the financial assets. The Group had no financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and held-to-maturity investments for 2017. Receivables Receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Receivables comprise notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables. (Note 2(10)) Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories at initial recognition. Available-for-sale financial assets are included in other current assets on the balance sheet if management intends to dispose of them within 12 months after the balance sheet date. (ii) Recognition and measurement Financial assets are recognised at fair value on the balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. The related transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of receivables and available-for-sale financial assets are included in their initial recognition amounts. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (9) Financial instrument (Cont’d) Available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Investments in equity instruments are - 104 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] measured at cost when they do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured. Receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses arising from change in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognised directly in equity, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses arising from translation of monetary financial assets. When such financial assets are derecognised, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognised directly into equity are recycled into profit or loss for the current period. Interests on available-for-sale investments in debt instruments calculated using the effective interest method during the period in which such investments are held and cash dividends declared by the investee on available-for-sale investments in equity instruments are recognised as investment income, which is recognised in profit or loss for the period. (a) Financial assets (iii) Impairment of financial assets The Group assesses book values of financial assets at each balance sheet date. If there is objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired, an impairment loss is provided for. The objective evidence of impairment losses on financial assets refers to events that actually incurred after the initial recognition of financial assets, have influence on the expected future cash flow from the financial assets and the influence can be reliably measured. Objective evidence which indicates the occurrence of impairment for available-for-sale equity instruments includes significant or non-temporary decrease of fair value of equity instruments investment. The Group conducts individual Checkion on each available-for-sale equity instruments investment at balance sheet date, if the fair value of the available-for-sale equity instrument is less than its initial investment cost for more than 50% (inclusive) or less than its initial investment cost continually for more than 1 year, that means impairment incurred; if the fair value of the available-for-sale equity instrument is less than its initial investment cost for more than 20% (inclusive) but has not reached 50%, the Group will comprehensively consider other factors such as price volatility to determine whether the equity instrument investment has been impaired. The Group calculates the initial investment cost of initial available-for-sale equity instruments investment using the weighted average method. When an impairment loss on a financial asset carried at amortised cost has occurred, the amount of loss is provided for at the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of its estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred). If there is objective evidence that the value of the financial asset is recovered and the recovery is related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed and the amount of reversal is recognised in profit or loss. If an impairment loss on available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value is incurred, the cumulative losses arising from the decline in fair value that had been recognised directly in shareholders' equity are transferred out from equity and into impairment loss. For an investment in debt instrument classified as available-for-sale on which impairment losses have been recognised, if, in a subsequent period, its fair value increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed into profit or loss for the current period. For an investment in an equity 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (9) Financial instrument (Cont’d) instrument classified as available-for-sale on which impairment losses have been recognised, the increase in its fair value in a subsequent period is recognised directly in equity. (iv) Derecognition of financial assets - 105 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] Financial assets are derecognised when: i) the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial assets have expired; or ii) all substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets have been transferred; or iii) the control over the financial asset has been waived even if the Group does not transfer or retain nearly all of the risks and rewards relating to the ownership of a financial asset. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between book value and the sum of the consideration received and the cumulative changes in fair value that had been recognised directly in owner's equity, is recognised in profit or loss. (b) Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are classified into two categories at initial recognition: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and other financial liabilities. The financial liabilities of the Group mainly comprise other financial liabilities, including payables, borrowings and bonds payable. The fair value change of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss is charged to income statement. Payables comprise accounts payable, notes payable and other payables, which are recognised initially at fair value and measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings and bonds payable are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Other financial liabilities within one year (inclusive) is presented as current liabilities, while non-current financial liabilities due with one year (inclusive) is reclassified as non-current liabilities due within one year. Others are presented as non-current liabilities. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognised when all or part of the obligation is extinguished. The difference between book value of a financial liability (or a part of financial liability) extinguished and the consideration paid is recognised in the income statement. (c) Determination of fair value of financial instruments The fair value of a financial instrument that is traded in an active market is determined at the quoted price in the active market. The fair value of a financial instrument that is not traded in an active market is determined by using a valuation technique. During valuation, the Group adopts a valuation technique suitable for current situation, which is supported by sufficient available data and other information, chooses the inputs consistent with the feature of assets or liabilities considered in the transaction thereof with market participants, and uses related observable inputs in preference to the greatest extent. Unobservable inputs are used when it is unable to obtain or is infeasible for related observable inputs. - 106 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (10) Receivables Receivables comprise notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables. Accounts receivable arising from sales of goods or rendering of services are initially recognised at fair value of the contractual payments from the buyers or service recipients. (a) Receivables with amounts that are individually significant and subject to separate assessment for provision for bad debts Receivables with amounts that are individually significant are subject to separate assessment for impairment. If there exists objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the amount under the original terms, a provision for bad debts of that receivable is made at the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of its estimated future cash flows. The basis or amount for individually significant receivables is individually greater than RMB20 million. (b) Receivables with amounts that are not individually significant but subject to separate assessment for provision for bad debts If there exists objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the amount under the original terms, a provision for bad debts of that receivable is made at the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of its estimated future cash flows. (c) Receivables that are subject to provision for bad debts on the grouping basis Receivables with amounts that have not been individually provided for impairment are classified into certain groupings based on their credit risk characteristics. The provision for bad debts is determined based on the historical loss experience for the groupings of receivables with similar credit risk characteristics, taking into consideration of the current circumstances. Basis for portfolio is as follows: Portfolio 1 Receivables not impaired after separate assessment Portfolio 2 Related party portfolio The percentage of provision for the portfolio: Percentage of provision for Percentage of provision for other accounts receivable receivables Portfolio 1 2% 2% Portfolio 2 2% 2% (d) The Group transfers receivables which have no recourse right to financial institution, the difference between book values which is trade amount cut the write-off receivables and related tax expenses charged into the income statement. (11) Inventories (a) Classification - 107 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] Inventories refer to manufacturing sector, including raw materials, work in progress, finished goods and turnover materials, and are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (11) Inventories (Cont’d) (b) Inventory costing method Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprise raw materials, direct labour and systematically allocated production overhead based on the normal production capacity. (c) Amortisation methods of low value consumables and packaging materials Turnover materials include low value consumables and packaging materials, which are expensed when issued. (d) The determination of net realisable value and the method of provision for decline in the value of inventories Provision for decline in the value of inventories is determined at the excess amount of book values of the inventories over their net realisable value. Net realisable value is determined based on the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs to completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale and related taxes. (e) The Group adopts the perpetual inventory system. (12) Long-term equity investments Long-term equity investments comprise the Company’s long-term equity investments in its subsidiaries, and the Group’s long-term equity investments in its associates. Subsidiaries are the investees over which the Company is able to exercise control. Associates are the investees that the Group has significant influence on their financial and operating policies. Investments in subsidiaries are measured using the cost method in the Company’s financial statements, and adjusted by using the equity method when preparing the consolidated financial statements. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. (a) Initial recognition For long-term equity investments formed in business combination: when obtained from business combinations involving entities under common control, the long-term equity investment is stated at carrying amount of equity for the combined parties at the time of merger; when the long-term equity investment obtained from business combinations involving entities not under common control, the investment is measured at combination cost. For long-term equity investments not formed in business combination: the one paid by cash is initially measured at actual purchase price; the long-term investment obtained by issuing equity securities is stated at fair value of equity securities as initial investment cost.. (b) Subsequent measurement and recognition of related profit or loss For long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method, they are measured at the initial investment costs, and cash dividends or profit distribution declared by the investees are recognised as investment income in profit or loss. - 108 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method, where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the Group’s share of the fair value of the investee’s 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (12) Long-term equity investments (Cont’d) identifiable net assets at the acquisition date, the long-term equity investment is measured at the initial investment cost; where the initial investment cost is less than the Group’s share of the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date, the difference is included in profit or loss and the cost of the long-term equity investment is adjusted upwards accordingly. Under the equity method, the Group recognises the investment income according to its share of net profit or loss of the investee. The Group discontinues recognising its share of the net losses of an investee after book values of the long-term equity investment together with any long-term interests that in substance form part of the investor’s net investment in the investee are reduced to zero. However, if the Group has obligations for additional losses and the criteria with respect to recognition of provisions under the accounting standards on contingencies are satisfied, the Group continues recognising the investment losses and the provisions. For changes in owners’ equity of the investee other than those arising from its net profit or loss, its proportionate share is directly recorded into capital surplus, provided that the proportion of the shareholding of the Group in the investee remains unchanged. Book value of the investment is reduced by the Group’s share of the profit distribution or cash dividends declared by an investee. The unrealised profits or losses arising from the intra-group transactions amongst the Group and its investees are eliminated in proportion to the Group’s equity interest in the investees, and then based on which the investment gains or losses are recognised. Any losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its investees attributable to asset impairment losses are not eliminated. (c) Basis for determining existence of control, jointly control or significant influence over investees The term "control" refers to the power in the investees, to obtain variable returns by participating in the related business activities of the investees, and the ability to affect the returns by exercising its power over the investees. The term "significant influence" refers to the power to participate in the formulation of financial and operating policies of an enterprise, but not the power to control, or jointly control, the formulation of such policies with other parties. (d) Impairment of long-term equity investments Book value of long-term equity investments in subsidiaries and associates is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable amount is less than book value (Note 2(18)). (13) Fixed assets (a) Recognition and initial measurement Fixed assets comprise buildings, machinery and equipment, motor vehicles and others. Fixed assets are recognised when it is probable that the related economic benefits will probably flow to the Group and the costs can be reliably measured. Fixed assets purchased or constructed by the Group are initially measured at cost at the acquisition date. Subsequent expenditures incurred for a fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset when it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Group and the related cost can be reliably measured. Book value of the replaced part is derecognised. All the other subsequent expenditures are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. - 109 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (b) Depreciation methods Fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of the assets to their estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives. For the fixed assets that have been provided for impairment loss, the related depreciation charge is prospectively determined based upon the adjusted carrying amounts over their remaining useful lives. The estimated useful lives, the estimated net residual values expressed as a percentage of cost and the annual depreciation rates of fixed assets are as follows: Estimated useful lives Estimated net residual value Annual depreciation rate Buildings 20 to 35 years 5% 2.71% to 4.75% Machinery and equipment 8 to 20 years 5% 4.75% to 11.88% Motor vehicles and others 5 to 8 years 0% 12.50% to 20.00% The estimated useful life, the estimated net residual value of a fixed asset and the depreciation method applied to the asset are reviewed, and adjusted as appropriate at each year-end. (c) Book value of a fixed asset is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable amount is below book value (Note 2 (18)). (d) Disposal A fixed asset is derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The amount of proceeds from disposals on sale, transfer, retirement or damage of a fixed asset net of its carrying amount and related taxes and expenses is recognised in profit or loss for the current period. (14) Construction in progress Construction in progress is recorded at actual cost. Actual cost comprises construction cost, installation cost, borrowing costs eligible for capitalised condition and necessary expenditures incurred for its intended use. Actual cost also includes net of trial production cost and trial production income before construction in progress is put into production. Construction in progress is transferred to fixed assets when the assets are ready for their intended use, and depreciation begins from the following month. Book value of construction in progress is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable amount is below book value (Note 2 (18)). - 110 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (15) Borrowing costs The borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition and construction of an asset that needs a substantially long period of time for its intended use commence to be capitalised and recorded as part of the cost of the asset when expenditures for the asset and borrowing costs have been incurred, and the activities relating to the acquisition and construction that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use have commenced. The capitalisation of borrowing costs ceases when the asset under acquisition or construction becomes ready for its intended use and the borrowing costs incurred thereafter are recognised in profit or loss for the current period. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended during periods in which the acquisition or construction of a fixed asset is interrupted abnormally and the interruption lasts for more than 3 months, until the acquisition or construction is resumed. For the specific borrowings obtained for the acquisition or construction of an asset qualifying for capitalisation, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined by deducting any interest income earned from depositing the unused specific borrowings in the banks or any investment income arising on the temporary investment of those borrowings during the capitalisation period. For the general borrowings obtained for the acquisition or construction of an asset qualifying for capitalisation, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined by applying the weighted average effective interest rate of general borrowings, to the weighted average of the excess amount of cumulative expenditures on the asset over the amount of specific borrowings. The effective interest rate is the rate at which the estimated future cash flows during the period of expected duration of the borrowings or applicable shorter period are discounted to the initial amount of the borrowings. (16) Intangible assets Intangible assets, mainly including land use rights, patents and proprietary technologies, exploitation rights and others, are measured at cost. (a) Land use rights Land use rights are amortised on the straight-line basis over their approved use period of 30 to 70 years. If the acquisition costs of the land use rights and the buildings located thereon cannot be reasonably allocated between the land use rights and the buildings, all of the acquisition costs are recognised as fixed assets. (b) Patents and proprietary technologies Patents are amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated use life. (c) Exploitation rights Exploitation rights are amortised on a straight-line basis over permitted exploitation periods on the exploitation certificate. (d) Periodical review of useful life and amortisation method For an intangible asset with a finite useful life, review of its useful life and amortisation method is performed at each year-end, with adjustment made as appropriate. - 111 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (16) Intangible assets (Cont’d) (e) Research and development The expenditure on an internal research and development project is classified into expenditure on the research phase and expenditure on the development phase based on its nature and whether there is material uncertainty that the research and development activities can form an intangible asset at end of the project. Expenditure on the research phase related to planned survey, evaluation and selection for research on manufacturing technique is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred. Prior to mass production, expenditure on the development phase related to the design and testing phase in regards to the final application of manufacturing technique is capitalised only if all of the following conditions are satisfied: the development of manufacturing technique has been fully demonstrated by technical team; management has approved the budget for the development of manufacturing technique; there are research and analysis of pre-market research explaining that products manufactured with such technique are capable of marketing; There is sufficient technical and capital to support the development of manufacturing technique and subsequent mass production; and the expenditure on manufacturing technique development can be reliably gathered. Other development expenditures that do not meet the conditions above are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Development costs previously recognised as expenses are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period. Capitalised expenditure on the development phase is presented as development costs in the balance sheet and transferred to intangible assets at the date that the asset is ready for its intended use. (f) Impairment of intangible assets Book value of intangible assets is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable amount is below book value (Note 2 (18)). (17) Long-term prepaid expenses Long-term prepaid expenses include the expenditures that have been incurred but should be recognised as expenses over more than one year in the current and subsequent periods. Long-term prepaid expenses are amortised on the straight-line basis over the expected beneficial period and are presented at actual expenditure net of accumulated amortisation. (18) Impairment of long-term assets Fixed assets, construction in progress, intangible assets with finite useful lives and long-term equity investments in joint ventures and associates are tested for impairment if there is any indication that the assets may be impaired at the balance sheet date; intangible assets not ready for their intended use are tested at least annually for impairment, irrespective of whether there is any indication that they may be impaired. If the result of the impairment test indicates that the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, a provision for impairment and an impairment loss are recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. Provision for asset impairment is determined and recognised on the individual asset basis. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the recoverable amount of a group of assets to which the asset belongs is determined. A group of assets is the smallest group of assets that is able to generate independent cash inflows. - 112 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (18) Impairment of long-term assets (Cont’d) Goodwill that is separately presented in the financial statements is tested at least annually for impairment, irrespective of whether there is any indication that it may be impaired. In conducting the test, book value of goodwill is allocated to the related asset groups or groups of asset groups which are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. If the result of the test indicates that the recoverable amount of an asset group or group of asset groups, including the allocated goodwill, is lower than its carrying amount, the corresponding impairment loss is recognised. The impairment loss is first deducted from book value of goodwill that is allocated to the asset group or group of asset groups, and then deducted from book values of other assets within the asset groups or groups of asset groups in proportion to book values of assets other than goodwill. Once the above asset impairment loss is recognised, it will not be reversed for the value recovered in the subsequent periods. (19) Employee benefits Employee benefits include short-term employee benefits, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits provided in various forms of consideration in exchange for service rendered by employees or compensations for the termination of employment relationship. (a) Short-term employee benefits Short-term employee benefits include wages or salaries, bonuses, allowances and subsidies, staff welfare, medical care, work injury insurance, maternity insurance, housing funds, labour union funds, employee education funds and paid short-term leave, etc. The employee benefit liabilities are recognised in the accounting period in which the service is rendered by the employees, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the current period or the cost of relevant assets. Employee benefits which are non-monetary benefits shall be measured at fair value. (b) Post-employment benefits The Group classifies post-employment benefit plans as either defined contribution plans or defined benefit plans. Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate fund and will have no obligation to pay further contributions; and defined benefit plans are post-employment benefit plans other than defined contribution plans. During the reporting period, the Group's post-employment benefits mainly include basic pensions and unemployment insurance, both of which belong to the defined contribution plans. Basic pensions The Group’s employees participate in the basic pension plan set up and administered by local authorities of Ministry of Human Resource and Social Security. Monthly payments of premiums on the basic pensions are calculated according to prescribed bases and percentage by the relevant local authorities. When employees retire, local labour and social security institutions have a duty to pay the basic pension insurance to them. The amounts based on the above calculations are recognised as liabilities in the accounting period in which the service has been rendered by the employees, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the current period or the cost of relevant assets. . - 113 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (19) Employee benefits (Cont’d) (c) Termination benefits The Group provides compensation for terminating the employment relationship with employees before the end of the employment contracts or as an offer to encourage employees to accept voluntary redundancy before the end of the employment contracts. The Group recognises a liability arising from compensation for termination of the employment relationship with employees, with a corresponding charge to profit or loss at the earlier of the following dates: 1) when the Group cannot unilaterally withdraw the offer of termination benefits because of an employment termination plan or a curtailment proposal; 2) when the Group recognises costs or expenses related to the restructuring that involves the payment of termination benefits. The termination benefits expected to be paid within one year since the balance sheet date are classified as current liabilities. (20) Dividend distribution Cash dividend is recognised as a liability for the period in which the dividend is approved by the shareholders’ meeting. (21) Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are calculated and recognised based on the differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts (temporary differences). Deferred tax asset is recognised for the deductible losses that can be carried forward to subsequent years for deduction of the taxable profit in accordance with the tax laws. No deferred tax liability is recognised for a temporary difference arising from the initial recognition of goodwill. No deferred tax asset or deferred tax liability is recognised for the temporary differences resulting from the initial recognition of assets or liabilities due to a transaction other than a business combination, which affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (or deductible loss). At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. Deferred tax assets are only recognised for deductible temporary differences, deductible losses and tax credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available in the future against which the deductible temporary differences, deductible losses and tax credits can be utilised. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Group is able to control the timing of reversal of the temporary difference, and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. When it is probable that the temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates will be reversed in the foreseeable future and that the taxable profit will be available in the future against which the temporary differences can be utilised, the corresponding deferred tax assets are recognised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when: the deferred taxes are related to the same tax payer within the Group and the same taxation authority; and, that tax payer within the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities. - 114 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (22) Provisions Business restructuring, provisions for product warranties, loss contracts etc. are recognised when the Group has a present obligation, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. A provision is initially measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the related present obligation. Factors surrounding a contingency, such as the risks, uncertainties and the time value of money, are taken into account as a whole in reaching the best estimate of a provision. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the best estimate is determined by discounting the related future cash outflows. The increase in the discounted amount of the provision arising from passage of time is recognised as interest expense. Book value of provision is reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. The provisions expected to be paid within one year since the balance sheet date are classified as current liabilities. (23) Share-based payments Share-based payments are divided into equity-settled and cash-settled payments. The term "equity-settled share-based payment" refers to a transaction in which an enterprise grants shares or other equity instruments as a consideration in return for services. Equity-settled share-based payment The Group‘s stock optionstock option plan is the equity-settled share-based payment in exchange of employees' services and is measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at grant date. The equity instruments are exercisable after services in vesting period are completed or specified performance conditions are met. In the vesting period, the services obtained in current period are included in relevant cost and expenses at the fair value of the equity instruments at grant date based on the best estimate of the number of exercisable equity instruments, and capital surplus is increased accordingly. If the subsequent information indicates the number of exercisable equity instruments differs from the previous estimate, an adjustment is made and, on the exercise date, the estimate is revised to equal the number of actual vested equity instruments. The Group determines the fair value of stock optionstock options using option pricing model, which is Black-Scholes option pricing model (B-S model). In the period at which performance conditions and term of service are met, the relevant cost and expenses of equity-settled payment should be recognized, and capital surplus is increased accordingly. Before the exercise date, the accruing amounts of equity-settled payments on balance sheet date reflect the part of expired waiting period and optimal estimation for the number of the Company final vested equity instruments. If the non-market conditions and term of service are not met so that share-based payment fail to exercise, the costs and expenses on this portion should not be recognized. If the share-based payment agreement sets out the market conditions and term of non-vesting, as long as performance conditions and term of service are met, it is should be regard as exercisable right, no matter the market conditions and non-vesting conditions are meet or not. If the terms of equity-settled payment are modified, at least the service is confirmed in accordance with the unmodified terms. In addition, the increase of the fair value of the authorized equity instruments, or the beneficial changes to the employees on the modification date, the increase of service are confirmed. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (23) Share-based payments (Cont’d) If the equity-settled payment is cancelled, the cancellation date shall be deemed as an expedited exercise, and the - 115 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] unconfirmed amount shall be confirmed immediately. If the employee or other party is able to choose to meet the non-vesting conditions but not satisfied in the waiting period, equity-settled payment should be cancelled. But if a new equity instrument is granted, and the new equity instrument is confirm to replace the old equity instrument which is canceled in the authorization date of the new equity instrument, the new equity instrument should be disposed by using the same conditions and terms of the old equity instrument for modifications (24) Revenue recognition The amount of revenue is determined in accordance with the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sales of goods and services in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of discounts, rebates and returns. Revenue is recognised when the economic benefits associated with the transaction will probably flow to the Group, the related revenue can be reliably measured, and the specific revenue recognition criteria have been met for each type of the Group’s activities as described below: (a) Sales of goods The Group mainly sells flat and engineering glass, products related to solar energy, and electronic glass and displays. For domestic sales, the Group delivers the products to a certain place specified in the contract. When the buyer takes over the goods, the Group recognises revenue. For export sales, the Group recognises the revenue when it finished clearing goods for export and deliver the goods on board the vessel, or when the goods are delivered to a certain place specified in the contract. For above sales, when the buyer takes over the goods, the buyer has the right to sell the products, and should bear the risk of price fluctuation or goods damage. (b) Rendering of services Revenue is recognised for the rendering of service by the Group to external parties upon the completion of related service. (c) Transfer of asset use rights Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method. (25) Government grants Government grants are transfers of monetary or non-monetary assets from the government to the Group at nil consideration, including tax refund and financial subsidies, etc. A government grant is recognised when there is a reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and the Group will comply with all attached conditions. Monetary government grants are measured at the amounts received or receivable. Non-monetary government grant are measured at fair value, if the fair value cannot be reliably obtained, it is measured at nominal amount. The government grants related to assets refer to government grant obtained by enterprises and used for purchase and construction of long-term assets or formation of long-term asset in other ways. The government grants related to income refer to grants other than those related to assets. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (25) Government grants (Cont’d) For government grants related to income, where the grant is a compensation for related expenses or losses to be incurred by the Group in the subsequent periods, the grant is recognised as deferred income, and included in profit - 116 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] or loss over the periods in which the related costs are recognised; where the grant is a compensation for related expenses or losses already incurred by the Group, the grant is recognised immediately in profit or loss for the current period.The company use the same method of presentation for similar government grants. The ordinary activitiy government grants should be counted into operating profits; the government grants which not belong ordinary activities should be counted inton non-operationg income. (26) Leases A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is a finance lease. An operating lease is a lease other than a finance lease. Lease payments under an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease, and are either capitalised as part of the cost of related assets, or charged as an expense for the current period. Lease income under an operating lease is recognised as revenue on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. (27) Assets classified as held for sale A non-current asset or a disposal group is classified as held for sale when all of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) the non-current asset or the disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject to terms that are traditionally and customary for sales; (2) the Group has made a resolution and obtained appropriate approval for disposal of the non-current asset or the disposal group, and the transfer is to be completed within one year. Non-current assets (except for financial assets, investment properties at fair value and deferred tax assets) that meet the recognition criteria for held for sale are recognised at the amount equal to the lower of the fair value less costs to sell and book value. The difference between fair value less costs to sell and carrying amount, should be presented as impairment loss. Such non-current assets and assets included in disposal groups as classified as held for sale are accounted for as current assets; while liabilities included in disposal groups classified as held for sale are accounted for as current liabilities, and are presented separately in the balance sheet. A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale, and is separately identifiable operationally and for financial reporting purposes, and satisfies one of the following conditions: (1) represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; (2) is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; and (3) is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The discontinued operation profits on income statement presentation have included the profits and loss of operation and disposal. (28) Safety production costs According to relevant regulations of the Ministry of Finance and National Administration of Work Safety, a subsidiary of the Group which is engaged in producing and selling polysilicon appropriates safety production costs on following basis: 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (28) Safety production costs - 117 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] (a) 4% for revenue below RMB10 million (inclusive) of the year; (b) 2% for the revenue between RMB10 million to RMB100 million (inclusive) of the year; (c) 0.5% for the revenue between RMB100 million to RMB1 billion (inclusive) of the year; (d) 0.2% for the revenue above RMB1 billion of the year. The safety production costs is mainly used for the overhaul, renewal and maintenance of safety facilities. The safety production costs are charged to costs of related products or profit or loss when appropriated, and safety production costs in equity account are credited correspondingly. When using the special reserve, if the expenditures are expenses in nature, the expenses incurred are offset against the special reserve directly when incurred. If the expenditures are capital expenditures, when projects are completed and transferred to fixed assets, the special reserve should be offset against the cost of fixed assets, and a corresponding accumulated depreciation are recognised. The fixed assets are no longer be depreciated in future. (29) Segment information The Group identifies operating segments based on the internal organisation structure, management requirements and internal reporting system, and discloses segment information of reportable segments which is determined on the basis of operating segments. An operating segment is a component of the Group that satisfies all of the following conditions: (1) the component is able to earn revenue and incur expenses from its ordinary activities; (2) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group’s management to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and (3) for which the information on financial position, operating results and cash flows is available to the Group. If two or more operating segments have similar economic characteristics and satisfy certain conditions, they are aggregated into one single operating segment. (30) Critical accounting estimates and judgements The Group continually Estimates the critical accounting estimates and key assumptions applied based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable. The critical accounting estimates and key assumptions that have a significant risk of possibly causing a material adjustment to book values of assets and liabilities within the next accounting year are outlined below: (a) Income tax The Group is subject to Income tax in numerous jurisdictions. There are some transactions and events for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Significant judgement is required from the Group in determining the provision for Income tax in each of these jurisdictions. Where the final identified outcome of these tax matters is different from the initially-recorded amount, such difference will impact the income tax expenses and deferred income tax in the period in which such determination is finally made. (b) Deferred income tax Estimates on deferred tax assets are based on estimates on amount of taxable income and applicable tax rate for every year. Realisation of deferred income tax are subject to sufficient taxable income that are possible to be obtained by the Group in the future.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] (c) Impairment of long-term assets (excluding goodwill) Long-term assets at the balance sheet date should be subject to impairment testing if there are any indications of impairment. Management determines whether the long-term assets impaired or not by evaluating and analysing following aspects: (1) whether the event affecting assets impairment occurs; (2) whether the expected obtainable present value of future cash flows is lower than the asset’s carrying amount by continually using the assets or disposal; and (3) whether the assumptions used in expected obtainable present value of future cash flows are appropriate. Various assumptions, including the discount rate and growth rate applied in the method of present value of future cash flow, are required in evaluating the recoverable amount of assets. If these assumptions cannot be conformed, the recoverable amount should be modified, and the long-term assets may be impaired accordingly. (d) The useful life of fixed assets Management estimates the useful life of fixed assets, based on historical experiences on using fixed assets that have similar properties and functions. When there are differences between actually useful life and previously estimation, management will adjust estimation to useful life of fixed assets. The fixed assets would be written off or written down when fixed assets been disposed or became redundant. Thus, the estimated result based on existing experience may be different from the actual result of the next accounting period, which may cause major adjustment to book value of fixed assets on balance sheet. (e) Goodwill impairment Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash-generating units (“CGUs”), or groups of CGUs, and future cash flow from each CGU or CGUs is forcasted and discounted with appropriate discount rate.

The Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance. (1) Market risk (a) Foreign exchange risk The Group’s major operational activities are carried out in Mainland China and a majority of the transactions are denominated in RMB. Some export business, however, is denominated in foreign currencies. In addition, the Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from the recognized assets and liabilities, and future transactions denominated in foreign currencies, primarily with respect to US dollars and Hong Kong dollar. The Group monitors the scale of foreign currency transactions, foreign currency assets and liabilities, and adjust settlement currency of export business, to furthest reduce the currency risk. As at 31 December 2017, book values in RMB equivalent of the Group’s assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are summarized below: 13 Financial instrument and risk (Cont’d) (1) Market risk (Cont'd) 31 December 2017 USD HKD Others Total - 185 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 13 Financial instrument and risk (Cont’d) (1) Market risk (Cont'd) (b) interest rate risk The Group's interest rate risk arises from long-term interest bearing debts including long-term borrowings and bonds payable. Financial liabilities issued at floating rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. Financial liabilities issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The Group determines the relative proportions of its fixed rate and floating rate contracts depending on the prevailing market conditions. As at 31 December 2017, the Group’s long-term interest-bearing debts at and fixed rates and floating rates are illustrated below: 31 December 2017 31 December 2016 Debt at fixed rates 1,425,000,000 1,380,000,000 Debt at floating rates 129,120,000 58,660,000 1,554,120,000 1,438,660,000 The Group continuously monitors the interest rate position of the Group. Increases in interest rates will increase the cost of new borrowing and the interest expenses with respect to the Group’s outstanding floating rate borrowings, and therefore could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial position. The Group makes adjustments timely with reference to the latest market conditions, which includes increasing/decreasing long-term fixed rate debts at the anticipation of increasing/decreasing interest rate. (2) Credit risk Credit risk is managed on the grouping basis. Credit risk mainly arises from cash at bank, notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables. The Group expects that there is no significant credit risk associated with cash at bank since they are mainly deposited at state-owned banks and other medium or large size listed banks. Management does not expect that there will be any significant losses from non-performance by these counterparties. Furthermore, as the Group’s bank acceptance notes receivable are generally accepted by the state-owned banks and other large and medium listed banks, management believes the credit risk should be limited. In addition, the Group has policies to limit the credit exposure on accounts receivable, other receivables and trade acceptance notes receivable. The Group assesses the credit quality of and sets credit limits on its customers by taking into account their financial position, the availability of guarantee from third parties, their credit history and other factors such as current market conditions. The credit history of the customers is regularly monitored by the Group. In respect of customers with a poor credit history, the Group will use written payment reminders, or shorten or cancel credit periods, to ensure the overall credit risk of the Group is limited to a controllable extent. - 187 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD.

The Group’s finance department at its headquarters monitors rolling forecasts of the Group's short-term and long-term liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash reserve, while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities from major financial institutions so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants on any of its borrowing facilities to meet the short-term and long-term liquidity requirements. As stated in Note 2(1) above, as at 31 December 2017, the Group had net current liabilities of approximately RMB2.52 billion and committed capital expenditures of approximately RMB0.15 billion. Management will implement the following measures to ensure the liquidation risk limited to a controllable extent: (a) The Group will have steady cash inflows from operating activities; (b) The Group will pay the debts that mature and finance the construction projects through the existing bank facilities; (c) The Group will closely monitoring the payment of construction expenditure in terms of payment time and amount.

(9) ccounting year The Company’s accounting year starts on 1 January and ends on 31 December. (10) ecording currency The recording currency is Renminbi (RMB).The economic environment of subsidiaries (China Southern Glass(Hong Kong) Limited, Hong Kong Southern Glass Trading co., Limited) determines their recording currency is Hongkong dollar. This report ‘s recording currency is Renminbi (RMB). (11) usiness combinations (a) Business combinations involving enterprises under common control The consideration paid and net assets obtained by the absorbing party in a business combination are measured at book value. The difference between book value of the net assets obtained from the combination and book value of the consideration paid for the combination is treated as an adjustment to capital surplus (share premium). If the capital surplus (share premium) is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the remaining balance is adjusted against retained earnings. Costs directly attributable to the combination are included in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Transaction costs associated with the issue of equity or debt securities for the business combination are included in the initially recognised amounts of the equity or debt securities. (b) Business combinations involving enterprises not under common control The cost of combination and identifiable net assets obtained by the acquirer in a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Where the cost of the combination exceeds the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets, the difference is recognised as goodwill; where the cost of combination is lower than the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets, the difference is recognised in profit or loss for the current period. Costs directly attributable to the combination are included in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Transaction costs associated with the issue of equity or debt securities for the business combination are included in the initially recognised amounts of the equity or debt securities. (12) reparation of consolidated financial statements The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and all of its subsidiaries.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] date that such control ceases. For a subsidiary that is acquired in a business combination involving enterprises under common control, it is included in the consolidated financial statements from the date when it, together with the Company, comes under common control of the 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (6) Preparation of consolidated financial statements (Cont’d) ultimate controlling party. The portion of the net profits realised before the combination date is presented separately in the consolidated income statement. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, where the accounting policies and the accounting periods of the Company and subsidiaries are inconsistent, the financial statements of the subsidiaries are adjusted in accordance with the accounting policies and the accounting period of the Company. For subsidiaries acquired from business combinations involving enterprises not under common control, the individual financial statements of the subsidiaries are adjusted based on the fair value of the identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. All significant intra-group balances, transactions and unrealised profits are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The portion of subsidiaries’ equity and the portion of a subsidiaries’ net profits and losses and comprehensive incomes for the period not attributable to Company are recognised as minority interests and presented separately in the consolidated financial statements under equity, net profits and total comprehensive income respectively. Unrealised profits and losses resulting from the sales of assets by the Company to its subsidiaries are fully eliminated against net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company. Unrealised profits and losses resulting from the sales of assets by a subsidiary to the Company are eliminated and allocated between net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company and non-controlling interests in accordance with the allocation proportion of the parent company in the subsidiary. Unrealised profits and losses resulting from the sales of assets by one subsidiary to another are eliminated and allocated between net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company and non-controlling interests in accordance with the allocation proportion of the parent in the subsidiary. After the control over the subsidiary has been gained, whole or partial minority equities of the subsidiary owned by minority shareholders are acquired from the subsidiary’s minority shareholders. In the consolidated financial statements, the subsidiary's assets and liabilities are reflected with amount based on continuous calculation starting from the acquisition date or consolidation date. Capital surplus is adjusted according to the difference between newly increased long-term equity investment arising from acquisition of minority equity and the share of net assets calculated based on current shareholding ratio that the parent company is entitled to. The share is subject to continuous calculation starting from the acquisition date or consolidation date. If the capital surplus (capital premium or share capital premium) is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the remaining balance is adjusted against retained earnings. If the accounting treatment of a transaction which considers the Group as an accounting entity is different from that considers the Company or its subsidiaries as an accounting entity, it is adjusted from the perspective of the Group. (7) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits that can be readily drawn on demand, and short-term and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. (8) Foreign currency transaction (a) Foreign currency transaction Foreign currency transactions are translated into RMB using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) - 211 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] (8) Foreign currency transaction (Cont’d) At the balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into RMB using the spot exchange rates on the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from these translations are recognised in profit or loss for the current period, except for those attributable to foreign currency borrowings that have been taken out specifically for the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, which are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at historical costs are translated at the balance sheet date using the spot exchange rates at the date of the transactions. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash is presented separately in the cash flow statement. (b) Translation of foreign currency financial statements The asset and liability items in the balance sheets for overseas operations are translated at the spot exchange rates on the balance sheet date. Among the shareholders’ equity items, the items other than “undistributed profits” are translated at the spot exchange rates of the transaction dates. The income and expense items in the income statements of overseas operations are translated at the spot exchange rates of the transaction dates. The differences arising from the above translation are presented separately in the shareholders’ equity. The cash flows of overseas operations are translated at the spot exchange rates on the dates of the cash flows. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash is presented separately in the cash flow statement. (9) Financial instrument (a) Financial assets (i) Classification of financial assets Financial assets are classified into the following categories at initial recognition: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, receivables, available-for-sale financial assets and held-to-maturity investments. The classification of financial assets depends on the Group’s intention and ability to hold the financial assets. The Group had no financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and held-to-maturity investments for 2017. Receivables Receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Receivables comprise notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables. (Note 2(10)) Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories at initial recognition. Available-for-sale financial assets are included in other current assets on the balance sheet if management intends to dispose of them within 12 months after the balance sheet date. (ii) Recognition and measurement Financial assets are recognised at fair value on the balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. The related transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of receivables and available-for-sale financial assets are included in their initial recognition amounts. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (9) Financial instrument (Cont’d) Available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Investments in equity instruments are - 212 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] measured at cost when they do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured. Receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses arising from change in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognised directly in equity, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses arising from translation of monetary financial assets. When such financial assets are derecognised, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognised directly into equity are recycled into profit or loss for the current period. Interests on available-for-sale investments in debt instruments calculated using the effective interest method during the period in which such investments are held and cash dividends declared by the investee on available-for-sale investments in equity instruments are recognised as investment income, which is recognised in profit or loss for the period. (a) Financial assets (iii) Impairment of financial assets The Group assesses book values of financial assets at each balance sheet date. If there is objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired, an impairment loss is provided for. The objective evidence of impairment losses on financial assets refers to events that actually incurred after the initial recognition of financial assets, have influence on the expected future cash flow from the financial assets and the influence can be reliably measured. Objective evidence which indicates the occurrence of impairment for available-for-sale equity instruments includes significant or non-temporary decrease of fair value of equity instruments investment. The Group conducts individual Checkion on each available-for-sale equity instruments investment at balance sheet date, if the fair value of the available-for-sale equity instrument is less than its initial investment cost for more than 50% (inclusive) or less than its initial investment cost continually for more than 1 year, that means impairment incurred; if the fair value of the available-for-sale equity instrument is less than its initial investment cost for more than 20% (inclusive) but has not reached 50%, the Group will comprehensively consider other factors such as price volatility to determine whether the equity instrument investment has been impaired. The Group calculates the initial investment cost of initial available-for-sale equity instruments investment using the weighted average method. When an impairment loss on a financial asset carried at amortised cost has occurred, the amount of loss is provided for at the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of its estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred). If there is objective evidence that the value of the financial asset is recovered and the recovery is related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed and the amount of reversal is recognised in profit or loss. If an impairment loss on available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value is incurred, the cumulative losses arising from the decline in fair value that had been recognised directly in shareholders' equity are transferred out from equity and into impairment loss. For an investment in debt instrument classified as available-for-sale on which impairment losses have been recognised, if, in a subsequent period, its fair value increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed into profit or loss for the current period. For an investment in an equity 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (9) Financial instrument (Cont’d) instrument classified as available-for-sale on which impairment losses have been recognised, the increase in its fair value in a subsequent period is recognised directly in equity. (iv) Derecognition of financial assets - 213 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] Financial assets are derecognised when: i) the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial assets have expired; or ii) all substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets have been transferred; or iii) the control over the financial asset has been waived even if the Group does not transfer or retain nearly all of the risks and rewards relating to the ownership of a financial asset. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between book value and the sum of the consideration received and the cumulative changes in fair value that had been recognised directly in owner's equity, is recognised in profit or loss. (b) Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are classified into two categories at initial recognition: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and other financial liabilities. The financial liabilities of the Group mainly comprise other financial liabilities, including payables, borrowings and bonds payable. The fair value change of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss is charged to income statement. Payables comprise accounts payable, notes payable and other payables, which are recognised initially at fair value and measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings and bonds payable are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Other financial liabilities within one year (inclusive) is presented as current liabilities, while non-current financial liabilities due with one year (inclusive) is reclassified as non-current liabilities due within one year. Others are presented as non-current liabilities. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognised when all or part of the obligation is extinguished. The difference between book value of a financial liability (or a part of financial liability) extinguished and the consideration paid is recognised in the income statement. (c) Determination of fair value of financial instruments The fair value of a financial instrument that is traded in an active market is determined at the quoted price in the active market. The fair value of a financial instrument that is not traded in an active market is determined by using a valuation technique. During valuation, the Group adopts a valuation technique suitable for current situation, which is supported by sufficient available data and other information, chooses the inputs consistent with the feature of assets or liabilities considered in the transaction thereof with market participants, and uses related observable inputs in preference to the greatest extent. Unobservable inputs are used when it is unable to obtain or is infeasible for related observable inputs. - 214 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (12) Receivables Receivables comprise notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables. Accounts receivable arising from sales of goods or rendering of services are initially recognised at fair value of the contractual payments from the buyers or service recipients. (a) Receivables with amounts that are individually significant and subject to separate assessment for provision for bad debts Receivables with amounts that are individually significant are subject to separate assessment for impairment. If there exists objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the amount under the original terms, a provision for bad debts of that receivable is made at the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of its estimated future cash flows. The basis or amount for individually significant receivables is individually greater than RMB20 million. (b) Receivables with amounts that are not individually significant but subject to separate assessment for provision for bad debts If there exists objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the amount under the original terms, a provision for bad debts of that receivable is made at the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of its estimated future cash flows. (c) Receivables that are subject to provision for bad debts on the grouping basis Receivables with amounts that have not been individually provided for impairment are classified into certain groupings based on their credit risk characteristics. The provision for bad debts is determined based on the historical loss experience for the groupings of receivables with similar credit risk characteristics, taking into consideration of the current circumstances. Basis for portfolio is as follows: Portfolio 1 Receivables not impaired after separate assessment Portfolio 2 Related party portfolio The percentage of provision for the portfolio: Percentage of provision for Percentage of provision for other accounts receivable receivables Portfolio 1 2% 2% Portfolio 2 2% 2% (d) The Group transfers receivables which have no recourse right to financial institution, the difference between book values which is trade amount cut the write-off receivables and related tax expenses charged into the income statement. (13) Inventories (f) Classification - 215 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] Inventories refer to manufacturing sector, including raw materials, work in progress, finished goods and turnover materials, and are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (11) Inventories (Cont’d) (g) Inventory costing method Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprise raw materials, direct labour and systematically allocated production overhead based on the normal production capacity. (h) Amortisation methods of low value consumables and packaging materials Turnover materials include low value consumables and packaging materials, which are expensed when issued. (i) The determination of net realisable value and the method of provision for decline in the value of inventories Provision for decline in the value of inventories is determined at the excess amount of book values of the inventories over their net realisable value. Net realisable value is determined based on the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs to completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale and related taxes. (j) The Group adopts the perpetual inventory system. (17) Long-term equity investments Long-term equity investments comprise the Company’s long-term equity investments in its subsidiaries, and the Group’s long-term equity investments in its associates. Subsidiaries are the investees over which the Company is able to exercise control. Associates are the investees that the Group has significant influence on their financial and operating policies. Investments in subsidiaries are measured using the cost method in the Company’s financial statements, and adjusted by using the equity method when preparing the consolidated financial statements. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. (e) Initial recognition For long-term equity investments formed in business combination: when obtained from business combinations involving entities under common control, the long-term equity investment is stated at carrying amount of equity for the combined parties at the time of merger; when the long-term equity investment obtained from business combinations involving entities not under common control, the investment is measured at combination cost. For long-term equity investments not formed in business combination: the one paid by cash is initially measured at actual purchase price; the long-term investment obtained by issuing equity securities is stated at fair value of equity securities as initial investment cost.. (f) Subsequent measurement and recognition of related profit or loss For long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method, they are measured at the initial investment costs, and cash dividends or profit distribution declared by the investees are recognised as investment income in profit or loss. - 216 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method, where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the Group’s share of the fair value of the investee’s 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (12) Long-term equity investments (Cont’d) identifiable net assets at the acquisition date, the long-term equity investment is measured at the initial investment cost; where the initial investment cost is less than the Group’s share of the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date, the difference is included in profit or loss and the cost of the long-term equity investment is adjusted upwards accordingly. Under the equity method, the Group recognises the investment income according to its share of net profit or loss of the investee. The Group discontinues recognising its share of the net losses of an investee after book values of the long-term equity investment together with any long-term interests that in substance form part of the investor’s net investment in the investee are reduced to zero. However, if the Group has obligations for additional losses and the criteria with respect to recognition of provisions under the accounting standards on contingencies are satisfied, the Group continues recognising the investment losses and the provisions. For changes in owners’ equity of the investee other than those arising from its net profit or loss, its proportionate share is directly recorded into capital surplus, provided that the proportion of the shareholding of the Group in the investee remains unchanged. Book value of the investment is reduced by the Group’s share of the profit distribution or cash dividends declared by an investee. The unrealised profits or losses arising from the intra-group transactions amongst the Group and its investees are eliminated in proportion to the Group’s equity interest in the investees, and then based on which the investment gains or losses are recognised. Any losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its investees attributable to asset impairment losses are not eliminated. (g) Basis for determining existence of control, jointly control or significant influence over investees The term "control" refers to the power in the investees, to obtain variable returns by participating in the related business activities of the investees, and the ability to affect the returns by exercising its power over the investees. The term "significant influence" refers to the power to participate in the formulation of financial and operating policies of an enterprise, but not the power to control, or jointly control, the formulation of such policies with other parties. (h) Impairment of long-term equity investments Book value of long-term equity investments in subsidiaries and associates is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable amount is less than book value (Note 2(18)). (18) Fixed assets (e) Recognition and initial measurement Fixed assets comprise buildings, machinery and equipment, motor vehicles and others. Fixed assets are recognised when it is probable that the related economic benefits will probably flow to the Group and the costs can be reliably measured. Fixed assets purchased or constructed by the Group are initially measured at cost at the acquisition date. Subsequent expenditures incurred for a fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset when it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Group and the related cost can be reliably measured. Book value of the replaced part is derecognised. All the other subsequent expenditures are recognised in profit or loss in - 217 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] the period in which they are incurred. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (f) Depreciation methods Fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of the assets to their estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives. For the fixed assets that have been provided for impairment loss, the related depreciation charge is prospectively determined based upon the adjusted carrying amounts over their remaining useful lives. The estimated useful lives, the estimated net residual values expressed as a percentage of cost and the annual depreciation rates of fixed assets are as follows: Estimated useful lives Estimated net residual value Annual depreciation rate Buildings 20 to 35 years 5% 2.71% to 4.75% Machinery and equipment 8 to 20 years 5% 4.75% to 11.88% Motor vehicles and others 5 to 8 years 0% 12.50% to 20.00% The estimated useful life, the estimated net residual value of a fixed asset and the depreciation method applied to the asset are reviewed, and adjusted as appropriate at each year-end. (g) Book value of a fixed asset is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable amount is below book value (Note 2 (18)). (h) Disposal A fixed asset is derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The amount of proceeds from disposals on sale, transfer, retirement or damage of a fixed asset net of its carrying amount and related taxes and expenses is recognised in profit or loss for the current period. (19) Construction in progress Construction in progress is recorded at actual cost. Actual cost comprises construction cost, installation cost, borrowing costs eligible for capitalised condition and necessary expenditures incurred for its intended use. Actual cost also includes net of trial production cost and trial production income before construction in progress is put into production. Construction in progress is transferred to fixed assets when the assets are ready for their intended use, and depreciation begins from the following month. Book value of construction in progress is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable amount is below book value (Note 2 (18)). - 218 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (20) Borrowing costs The borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition and construction of an asset that needs a substantially long period of time for its intended use commence to be capitalised and recorded as part of the cost of the asset when expenditures for the asset and borrowing costs have been incurred, and the activities relating to the acquisition and construction that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use have commenced. The capitalisation of borrowing costs ceases when the asset under acquisition or construction becomes ready for its intended use and the borrowing costs incurred thereafter are recognised in profit or loss for the current period. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended during periods in which the acquisition or construction of a fixed asset is interrupted abnormally and the interruption lasts for more than 3 months, until the acquisition or construction is resumed. For the specific borrowings obtained for the acquisition or construction of an asset qualifying for capitalisation, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined by deducting any interest income earned from depositing the unused specific borrowings in the banks or any investment income arising on the temporary investment of those borrowings during the capitalisation period. For the general borrowings obtained for the acquisition or construction of an asset qualifying for capitalisation, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined by applying the weighted average effective interest rate of general borrowings, to the weighted average of the excess amount of cumulative expenditures on the asset over the amount of specific borrowings. The effective interest rate is the rate at which the estimated future cash flows during the period of expected duration of the borrowings or applicable shorter period are discounted to the initial amount of the borrowings. (21) Intangible assets Intangible assets, mainly including land use rights, patents and proprietary technologies, exploitation rights and others, are measured at cost. (a) Land use rights Land use rights are amortised on the straight-line basis over their approved use period of 30 to 70 years. If the acquisition costs of the land use rights and the buildings located thereon cannot be reasonably allocated between the land use rights and the buildings, all of the acquisition costs are recognised as fixed assets. (b) Patents and proprietary technologies Patents are amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated use life. (c) Exploitation rights Exploitation rights are amortised on a straight-line basis over permitted exploitation periods on the exploitation certificate. (d) Periodical review of useful life and amortisation method For an intangible asset with a finite useful life, review of its useful life and amortisation method is performed at each year-end, with adjustment made as appropriate. - 219 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (19) Intangible assets (Cont’d) (e) Research and development The expenditure on an internal research and development project is classified into expenditure on the research phase and expenditure on the development phase based on its nature and whether there is material uncertainty that the research and development activities can form an intangible asset at end of the project. Expenditure on the research phase related to planned survey, evaluation and selection for research on manufacturing technique is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred. Prior to mass production, expenditure on the development phase related to the design and testing phase in regards to the final application of manufacturing technique is capitalised only if all of the following conditions are satisfied: the development of manufacturing technique has been fully demonstrated by technical team; management has approved the budget for the development of manufacturing technique; there are research and analysis of pre-market research explaining that products manufactured with such technique are capable of marketing; There is sufficient technical and capital to support the development of manufacturing technique and subsequent mass production; and the expenditure on manufacturing technique development can be reliably gathered. Other development expenditures that do not meet the conditions above are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Development costs previously recognised as expenses are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period. Capitalised expenditure on the development phase is presented as development costs in the balance sheet and transferred to intangible assets at the date that the asset is ready for its intended use. (f) Impairment of intangible assets Book value of intangible assets is reduced to the recoverable amount when the recoverable amount is below book value (Note 2 (18)). (20) Long-term prepaid expenses Long-term prepaid expenses include the expenditures that have been incurred but should be recognised as expenses over more than one year in the current and subsequent periods. Long-term prepaid expenses are amortised on the straight-line basis over the expected beneficial period and are presented at actual expenditure net of accumulated amortisation. (21) Impairment of long-term assets Fixed assets, construction in progress, intangible assets with finite useful lives and long-term equity investments in joint ventures and associates are tested for impairment if there is any indication that the assets may be impaired at the balance sheet date; intangible assets not ready for their intended use are tested at least annually for impairment, irrespective of whether there is any indication that they may be impaired. If the result of the impairment test indicates that the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, a provision for impairment and an impairment loss are recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. Provision for asset impairment is determined and recognised on the individual asset basis. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the recoverable amount of a group of assets to which the asset belongs is determined. A group - 220 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] of assets is the smallest group of assets that is able to generate independent cash inflows. - 221 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (20) Impairment of long-term assets (Cont’d) Goodwill that is separately presented in the financial statements is tested at least annually for impairment, irrespective of whether there is any indication that it may be impaired. In conducting the test, book value of goodwill is allocated to the related asset groups or groups of asset groups which are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. If the result of the test indicates that the recoverable amount of an asset group or group of asset groups, including the allocated goodwill, is lower than its carrying amount, the corresponding impairment loss is recognised. The impairment loss is first deducted from book value of goodwill that is allocated to the asset group or group of asset groups, and then deducted from book values of other assets within the asset groups or groups of asset groups in proportion to book values of assets other than goodwill. Once the above asset impairment loss is recognised, it will not be reversed for the value recovered in the subsequent periods. (21) Employee benefits Employee benefits include short-term employee benefits, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits provided in various forms of consideration in exchange for service rendered by employees or compensations for the termination of employment relationship. (d) Short-term employee benefits Short-term employee benefits include wages or salaries, bonuses, allowances and subsidies, staff welfare, medical care, work injury insurance, maternity insurance, housing funds, labour union funds, employee education funds and paid short-term leave, etc. The employee benefit liabilities are recognised in the accounting period in which the service is rendered by the employees, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the current period or the cost of relevant assets. Employee benefits which are non-monetary benefits shall be measured at fair value. (e) Post-employment benefits The Group classifies post-employment benefit plans as either defined contribution plans or defined benefit plans. Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate fund and will have no obligation to pay further contributions; and defined benefit plans are post-employment benefit plans other than defined contribution plans. During the reporting period, the Group's post-employment benefits mainly include basic pensions and unemployment insurance, both of which belong to the defined contribution plans. Basic pensions The Group’s employees participate in the basic pension plan set up and administered by local authorities of Ministry of Human Resource and Social Security. Monthly payments of premiums on the basic pensions are calculated according to prescribed bases and percentage by the relevant local authorities. When employees retire, local labour and social security institutions have a duty to pay the basic pension insurance to them. The amounts based on the above calculations are recognised as liabilities in the accounting period in which the service has been rendered by the employees, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the current period or the cost of relevant assets. . - 222 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (33) Employee benefits (Cont’d) (f) Termination benefits The Group provides compensation for terminating the employment relationship with employees before the end of the employment contracts or as an offer to encourage employees to accept voluntary redundancy before the end of the employment contracts. The Group recognises a liability arising from compensation for termination of the employment relationship with employees, with a corresponding charge to profit or loss at the earlier of the following dates: 1) when the Group cannot unilaterally withdraw the offer of termination benefits because of an employment termination plan or a curtailment proposal; 2) when the Group recognises costs or expenses related to the restructuring that involves the payment of termination benefits. The termination benefits expected to be paid within one year since the balance sheet date are classified as current liabilities. (34) Dividend distribution Cash dividend is recognised as a liability for the period in which the dividend is approved by the shareholders’ meeting. (35) Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are calculated and recognised based on the differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts (temporary differences). Deferred tax asset is recognised for the deductible losses that can be carried forward to subsequent years for deduction of the taxable profit in accordance with the tax laws. No deferred tax liability is recognised for a temporary difference arising from the initial recognition of goodwill. No deferred tax asset or deferred tax liability is recognised for the temporary differences resulting from the initial recognition of assets or liabilities due to a transaction other than a business combination, which affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (or deductible loss). At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. Deferred tax assets are only recognised for deductible temporary differences, deductible losses and tax credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available in the future against which the deductible temporary differences, deductible losses and tax credits can be utilised. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Group is able to control the timing of reversal of the temporary difference, and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. When it is probable that the temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates will be reversed in the foreseeable future and that the taxable profit will be available in the future against which the temporary differences can be utilised, the corresponding deferred tax assets are recognised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when: the deferred taxes are related to the same tax payer within the Group and the same taxation authority; and, that tax payer within the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities. - 223 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (36) Provisions Business restructuring, provisions for product warranties, loss contracts etc. are recognised when the Group has a present obligation, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. A provision is initially measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the related present obligation. Factors surrounding a contingency, such as the risks, uncertainties and the time value of money, are taken into account as a whole in reaching the best estimate of a provision. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the best estimate is determined by discounting the related future cash outflows. The increase in the discounted amount of the provision arising from passage of time is recognised as interest expense. Book value of provision is reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. The provisions expected to be paid within one year since the balance sheet date are classified as current liabilities. (37) Share-based payments Share-based payments are divided into equity-settled and cash-settled payments. The term "equity-settled share-based payment" refers to a transaction in which an enterprise grants shares or other equity instruments as a consideration in return for services. Equity-settled share-based payment The Group‘s stock optionstock option plan is the equity-settled share-based payment in exchange of employees' services and is measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at grant date. The equity instruments are exercisable after services in vesting period are completed or specified performance conditions are met. In the vesting period, the services obtained in current period are included in relevant cost and expenses at the fair value of the equity instruments at grant date based on the best estimate of the number of exercisable equity instruments, and capital surplus is increased accordingly. If the subsequent information indicates the number of exercisable equity instruments differs from the previous estimate, an adjustment is made and, on the exercise date, the estimate is revised to equal the number of actual vested equity instruments. The Group determines the fair value of stock optionstock options using option pricing model, which is Black-Scholes option pricing model (B-S model). In the period at which performance conditions and term of service are met, the relevant cost and expenses of equity-settled payment should be recognized, and capital surplus is increased accordingly. Before the exercise date, the accruing amounts of equity-settled payments on balance sheet date reflect the part of expired waiting period and optimal estimation for the number of the Company final vested equity instruments. If the non-market conditions and term of service are not met so that share-based payment fail to exercise, the costs and expenses on this portion should not be recognized. If the share-based payment agreement sets out the market conditions and term of non-vesting, as long as performance conditions and term of service are met, it is should be regard as exercisable right, no matter the market conditions and non-vesting conditions are meet or not. If the terms of equity-settled payment are modified, at least the service is confirmed in accordance with the unmodified terms. In addition, the increase of the fair value of the authorized equity instruments, or the beneficial changes to the employees on the modification date, the increase of service are confirmed. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (23) Share-based payments (Cont’d) If the equity-settled payment is cancelled, the cancellation date shall be deemed as an expedited exercise, and the - 224 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] unconfirmed amount shall be confirmed immediately. If the employee or other party is able to choose to meet the non-vesting conditions but not satisfied in the waiting period, equity-settled payment should be cancelled. But if a new equity instrument is granted, and the new equity instrument is confirm to replace the old equity instrument which is canceled in the authorization date of the new equity instrument, the new equity instrument should be disposed by using the same conditions and terms of the old equity instrument for modifications (38) Revenue recognition The amount of revenue is determined in accordance with the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sales of goods and services in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of discounts, rebates and returns. Revenue is recognised when the economic benefits associated with the transaction will probably flow to the Group, the related revenue can be reliably measured, and the specific revenue recognition criteria have been met for each type of the Group’s activities as described below: (a) Sales of goods The Group mainly sells flat and engineering glass, products related to solar energy, and electronic glass and displays. For domestic sales, the Group delivers the products to a certain place specified in the contract. When the buyer takes over the goods, the Group recognises revenue. For export sales, the Group recognises the revenue when it finished clearing goods for export and deliver the goods on board the vessel, or when the goods are delivered to a certain place specified in the contract. For above sales, when the buyer takes over the goods, the buyer has the right to sell the products, and should bear the risk of price fluctuation or goods damage. (b) Rendering of services Revenue is recognised for the rendering of service by the Group to external parties upon the completion of related service. (c) Transfer of asset use rights Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method. (39) Government grants Government grants are transfers of monetary or non-monetary assets from the government to the Group at nil consideration, including tax refund and financial subsidies, etc. A government grant is recognised when there is a reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and the Group will comply with all attached conditions. Monetary government grants are measured at the amounts received or receivable. Non-monetary government grant are measured at fair value, if the fair value cannot be reliably obtained, it is measured at nominal amount. The government grants related to assets refer to government grant obtained by enterprises and used for purchase and construction of long-term assets or formation of long-term asset in other ways. The government grants related to income refer to grants other than those related to assets. 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (25) Government grants (Cont’d) For government grants related to income, where the grant is a compensation for related expenses or losses to be incurred by the Group in the subsequent periods, the grant is recognised as deferred income, and included in profit - 225 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] or loss over the periods in which the related costs are recognised; where the grant is a compensation for related expenses or losses already incurred by the Group, the grant is recognised immediately in profit or loss for the current period.The company use the same method of presentation for similar government grants. The ordinary activitiy government grants should be counted into operating profits; the government grants which not belong ordinary activities should be counted inton non-operationg income. (40) Leases A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is a finance lease. An operating lease is a lease other than a finance lease. Lease payments under an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease, and are either capitalised as part of the cost of related assets, or charged as an expense for the current period. Lease income under an operating lease is recognised as revenue on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. (41) Assets classified as held for sale A non-current asset or a disposal group is classified as held for sale when all of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) the non-current asset or the disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject to terms that are traditionally and customary for sales; (2) the Group has made a resolution and obtained appropriate approval for disposal of the non-current asset or the disposal group, and the transfer is to be completed within one year. Non-current assets (except for financial assets, investment properties at fair value and deferred tax assets) that meet the recognition criteria for held for sale are recognised at the amount equal to the lower of the fair value less costs to sell and book value. The difference between fair value less costs to sell and carrying amount, should be presented as impairment loss. Such non-current assets and assets included in disposal groups as classified as held for sale are accounted for as current assets; while liabilities included in disposal groups classified as held for sale are accounted for as current liabilities, and are presented separately in the balance sheet. A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale, and is separately identifiable operationally and for financial reporting purposes, and satisfies one of the following conditions: (1) represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; (2) is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; and (3) is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The discontinued operation profits on income statement presentation have included the profits and loss of operation and disposal. (42) Safety production costs According to relevant regulations of the Ministry of Finance and National Administration of Work Safety, a subsidiary of the Group which is engaged in producing and selling polysilicon appropriates safety production costs on following basis: 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (28) Safety production costs - 226 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] (a) 4% for revenue below RMB10 million (inclusive) of the year; (b) 2% for the revenue between RMB10 million to RMB100 million (inclusive) of the year; (c) 0.5% for the revenue between RMB100 million to RMB1 billion (inclusive) of the year; (d) 0.2% for the revenue above RMB1 billion of the year. The safety production costs is mainly used for the overhaul, renewal and maintenance of safety facilities. The safety production costs are charged to costs of related products or profit or loss when appropriated, and safety production costs in equity account are credited correspondingly. When using the special reserve, if the expenditures are expenses in nature, the expenses incurred are offset against the special reserve directly when incurred. If the expenditures are capital expenditures, when projects are completed and transferred to fixed assets, the special reserve should be offset against the cost of fixed assets, and a corresponding accumulated depreciation are recognised. The fixed assets are no longer be depreciated in future. (43) Segment information The Group identifies operating segments based on the internal organisation structure, management requirements and internal reporting system, and discloses segment information of reportable segments which is determined on the basis of operating segments. An operating segment is a component of the Group that satisfies all of the following conditions: (1) the component is able to earn revenue and incur expenses from its ordinary activities; (2) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group’s management to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and (3) for which the information on financial position, operating results and cash flows is available to the Group. If two or more operating segments have similar economic characteristics and satisfy certain conditions, they are aggregated into one single operating segment. (44) Critical accounting estimates and judgements The Group continually Estimates the critical accounting estimates and key assumptions applied based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable. The critical accounting estimates and key assumptions that have a significant risk of possibly causing a material adjustment to book values of assets and liabilities within the next accounting year are outlined below: (a) Income tax The Group is subject to Income tax in numerous jurisdictions. There are some transactions and events for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Significant judgement is required from the Group in determining the provision for Income tax in each of these jurisdictions. Where the final identified outcome of these tax matters is different from the initially-recorded amount, such difference will impact the income tax expenses and deferred income tax in the period in which such determination is finally made. (b) Deferred income tax Estimates on deferred tax assets are based on estimates on amount of taxable income and applicable tax rate for every year. Realisation of deferred income tax are subject to sufficient taxable income that are possible to be obtained by the Group in the future. Change of the future tax rate as well as the reversed time of temporary difference might have effects on tax expense (income) and the balance of 2 Summary of significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (Cont’d) (30) Critical accounting estimates and judgements (Cont’d) (b) Deferred income tax (Cont’d) deferred tax assets or liabilities.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] (c) Impairment of long-term assets (excluding goodwill) Long-term assets at the balance sheet date should be subject to impairment testing if there are any indications of impairment. Management determines whether the long-term assets impaired or not by evaluating and analysing following aspects: (1) whether the event affecting assets impairment occurs; (2) whether the expected obtainable present value of future cash flows is lower than the asset’s carrying amount by continually using the assets or disposal; and (3) whether the assumptions used in expected obtainable present value of future cash flows are appropriate. Various assumptions, including the discount rate and growth rate applied in the method of present value of future cash flow, are required in evaluating the recoverable amount of assets. If these assumptions cannot be conformed, the recoverable amount should be modified, and the long-term assets may be impaired accordingly. (d) The useful life of fixed assets Management estimates the useful life of fixed assets, based on historical experiences on using fixed assets that have similar properties and functions. When there are differences between actually useful life and previously estimation, management will adjust estimation to useful life of fixed assets. The fixed assets would be written off or written down when fixed assets been disposed or became redundant. Thus, the estimated result based on existing experience may be different from the actual result of the next accounting period, which may cause major adjustment to book value of fixed assets on balance sheet. (e) Goodwill impairment Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash-generating units (“CGUs”), or groups of CGUs, and future cash flow from each CGU or CGUs is forcasted and discounted with appropriate discount rate. (45) Significant changes in accounting policies In 2017, the Ministry of Finance released the “Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 42—Non-current Assets or Disposal Groups Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations”, revised “Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 16—Government Grants” and the “Circular on Amendment to Formats of Financial Statements of General Industry” and its interpretation (Cai Kuai [2017] 30).

The Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance. (1) Market risk (a) Foreign exchange risk The Group’s major operational activities are carried out in Mainland China and a majority of the transactions are denominated in RMB. Some export business, however, is denominated in foreign currencies. In addition, the Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from the recognized assets and liabilities, and future transactions denominated in foreign currencies, primarily with respect to US dollars and Hong Kong dollar. The Group monitors the scale of foreign currency transactions, foreign currency assets and liabilities, and adjust settlement currency of export business, to furthest reduce the currency risk. As at 31 December 2017, book values in RMB equivalent of the Group’s assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are summarized below: - 293 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD.

As at 31 December 2017, if the currency had strengthened/weakened by 10% against the HKD while all other variables had been held constant, the Group’s net profit for the year would have been approximately RMB3,988,541 higher/lower (31 December 2016: approximately RMB5,230,592higher/lower ) for various financial assets and liabilities denominated in HKD.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 (All amounts in RMB Yuan unless otherwise stated) [English translation for reference only] 13 Financial instrument and risk (Cont’d) (1) Market risk (Cont'd) (b) interest rate risk The Group's interest rate risk arises from long-term interest bearing debts including long-term borrowings and bonds payable. Financial liabilities issued at floating rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. Financial liabilities issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The Group determines the relative proportions of its fixed rate and floating rate contracts depending on the prevailing market conditions. As at 31 December 2017, the Group’s long-term interest-bearing debts at and fixed rates and floating rates are illustrated below: 31 December 2017 31 December 2016 Debt at fixed rates 1,425,000,000 1,380,000,000 Debt at floating rates 129,120,000 58,660,000 1,554,120,000 1,438,660,000 The Group continuously monitors the interest rate position of the Group. Increases in interest rates will increase the cost of new borrowing and the interest expenses with respect to the Group’s outstanding floating rate borrowings, and therefore could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial position. The Group makes adjustments timely with reference to the latest market conditions, which includes increasing/decreasing long-term fixed rate debts at the anticipation of increasing/decreasing interest rate. (2) Credit risk Credit risk is managed on the grouping basis. Credit risk mainly arises from cash at bank, notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables. The Group expects that there is no significant credit risk associated with cash at bank since they are mainly deposited at state-owned banks and other medium or large size listed banks. Management does not expect that there will be any significant losses from non-performance by these counterparties. Furthermore, as the Group’s bank acceptance notes receivable are generally accepted by the state-owned banks and other large and medium listed banks, management believes the credit risk should be limited. In addition, the Group has policies to limit the credit exposure on accounts receivable, other receivables and trade acceptance notes receivable. The Group assesses the credit quality of and sets credit limits on its customers by taking into account their financial position, the availability of guarantee from third parties, their credit history and other factors such as current market conditions. The credit history of the customers is regularly monitored by the Group. In respect of customers with a poor credit history, the Group will use written payment reminders, or shorten or cancel credit periods, to ensure the overall credit risk of the Group is limited to a controllable extent. - 295 - CSG HOLDING CO., LTD.

The Group’s finance department at its headquarters monitors rolling forecasts of the Group's short-term and long-term liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash reserve, while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities from major financial institutions so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants on any of its borrowing facilities to meet the short-term and long-term liquidity requirements. As stated in Note 2(1) above, as at 31 December 2017, the Group had net current liabilities of approximately RMB2.52 billion and committed capital expenditures of approximately RMB0.15 billion. Management will implement the following measures to ensure the liquidation risk limited to a controllable extent: (a) The Group will have steady cash inflows from operating activities; (b) The Group will pay the debts that mature and finance the construction projects through the existing bank facilities; (c) The Group will closely monitoring the payment of construction expenditure in terms of payment time and amount.
