Section III The Management’s Discussion and Analysis I. Overview of the Company’s Industry during the Reporting Period Overview of the Company’s industry: According to the statistics of the State Council Information Office, China had 177 approved enterprises and 2,551 vessels (including 1,498 high seas fishing vessels) in the distant-water fishing industry in 2022, which operated in the high seas of the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic oceans, and the seas around Antarctica, as well as in the waters under the jurisdiction of cooperating countries. Overseas fishing is China’s strategic industry and plays an important role in building a "maritime community with a shared future" and "a strong marine country" and implementing the strategy of "going global" and the "Belt and Road" initiative. It has great significance for increasing the supply of high-quality domestic and foreign aquatic products, ensuring food safety, and promoting bilateral and multilateral cooperation in the fishery. China’s overseas fishing started in 1985, and China has become one of the world’s major overseas fishing countries over more than three decades of development. Its operation seas include seas in the exclusive economic zones of more than 40 countries, the high seas in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans, as well as the seas in Antarctica. Climbing to the world’s top in size, China’s overseas fishing industry is characterized by a gradually improving industrial structure, substantially improved equipment, much stronger scientific and technological support, and an ever-improving management system. It is developing towards "transformation, upgrading, and standardized management." However, in terms of scientific and technological support and the ability to develop and utilize comprehensive resources, China remains in a lower position with a big gap from advanced countries. Meanwhile, negative factors such as the rapidly rising costs of human resources and the shortage of workers for the industry, in particular crew members, are expected to disturb the development of long range fishing on a long-term basis. Companies need to continuously increase spending on science and technology, accelerate transformation and upgrading, and improve their core competitiveness to actively respond to fast-changing industrial developments. Currently, China’s tuna market is witnessing soaring demand in coastal cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. In addition, the consumption potential of the inland market is also boosted to form a large market. It is foreseeable that China’s tuna consumption is bound to increase rapidly in the future with growing living standards and as people shift their focus from eating enough and high-quality food to eating nutritious and healthy food. China will resolutely implement new development concepts in the development of the marine economy and develop the marine industry into a high-end, clustered, international, information-based, and intelligent industry through scientific and technological innovation. This will inject strong forces into the sustainable development of the domestic tuna market. For Zhonglu Oceanic, a company that always focuses on the marine economy and upholds a sustainable development strategy, the macroeconomic policies of China will definitely help it achieve stronger development in the future. II. Company’s Main Businesses during the Reporting Period During the Reporting Period, the Company’s main businesses included long range fishing, cold storage transportation, and cold storage processing and trading. These businesses rely on and promote each other, forming a complete industrial chain. 1. Long range fishing During the Reporting Period, the Company had 27 distant-water fishing boats, including 14 large ultra-low temperature tuna longliners, nine (sets of) large tuna seiners, two medium-sized trawlers, and two squid fishing boats, in 2023, the Company’s production in the cooperating zones was good, representing a substantial increase compared with the corresponding period in the prior year. (2) The Company carried out seining in the Atlantic and the Western-central Pacific; seven (sets of) seiners operated in the Atlantic, which brought considerable production; the other two boats that were built in the year were put into production in the Western-central Pacific, which brought steadily increasing production. (3) Production by the two squid fishing boats decreased as it took a long time for them to transfer to different fisheries in the first half of 2023. (4) The Company’s trawlers were undergoing replacement and thus did not carry out production. 2. Cold storage transportation During the Reporting Period, the Company’s eight large distant-water transportation vessels are equipped with advanced equipment, feature good performance, and provide standard services under strict management. They are suitable for the distant-water frozen and cold storage transport of aquatic products, meat, poultry, vegetables, and fruits. The vessels provide services to some seas and ports in the Western-central Pacific, the Indian Ocean, the Atlantic, and North and South America. The vessels were focused on their main responsibilities and businesses, upheld the principles of stability and strictness, and continuously improved leadership, staff management, and professional skills. They prioritized the development of a talent team and deepened the “introduction, cultivation, utilization, and retention” of talents. In terms of safety, the vessels strengthened awareness of the bottom line of production safety and consolidated the defense line according to high standards and strict requirements to achieve positive interactions between high-quality development and high-level security. 3. Cold storage processing and trade The Company’s cold storage processing and trade segment during the Reporting Period: Despite the fact that the pandemic was over, due to the impact of a combination of factors, including political factors, market factors, and consumption concepts, the price of raw materials plunged, and the inventory on the international consumption market continued to grow without being consumed. The Company strengthened efforts to develop the market and expand its business volume. More than 20 tuna species were processed in this segment, including yellowfin tuna, bluefin tuna, longfin tuna, swordfin tuna, redfin tuna, and blackfin tuna. They were processed into tuna slices, chops, and plates. The products were mostly exported to Japan, Russia, the European Union, and South Korea. The Company has passed the HACCP, EU, BRC, MSC, and BSCI certifications. For domestic sales, the Company promotes “custom services” offline, develops “popular science + publicity” online, accelerates the development of “brand + innovation” dual drivers, and upgrades its business throughout the whole industrial chain of “fishing, transportation, storage, and supply.” The Company combines tuna fish with “industrial tourism” to form the “tourism + promotion” new marketing model. Business model: The Company conducts business in a centralized and diversified manner. Market position: the vice-presidential unit of the China Overseas Fisheries Association and the presidential unit of the Qingdao Overseas Fisheries Association. III. Analysis of Core Competitiveness The Company is a comprehensive and export-oriented company engaged in overseas fishing that was incorporated in July 1999 with the approval of the Shandong Provincial People’s Government. It has a well-established industrial chain and is a leading enterprise in Shandong’s overseas fishing industry. As a comprehensive listed fishing company, the Company’s core competitiveness lies in the following aspects: (1) Through more than 20 years of development, the Company has grown into a comprehensive fishing enterprise that is engaged in a combination of businesses, including overseas fishing, deep processing, trading, cold storage logistics, marine transportation, the development and production of marine biomedicines, and entrepreneurship and investment in the modern marine industry. The Company’s main businesses involve key links in the industrial chain. The businesses of the Company’s operating entities are highly associated, which meets the conditions for holistically collaborative operations. This provides a guarantee for the Company to reform its operations and strengthen and extend the industrial chain. (2) As one of the earliest companies engaged in overseas fishing in China, the Company started production and operations early from a high ground with competent human resources and assets. Through years of dedicated operations, the Company has gathered a pool of professionals specializing in relevant fields of the overseas fishing industry. (3) The Company’s overseas fishing industry is part of China’s strategy of "going global" and building a strong marine country, and Shandong’s strategy of building a strong marine province. There are development opportunities from the adjustment of the industrial depth. The Company has 14 ultra-low temperature tuna fishing boats engaged in the longline fishing of tuna in the Indian Ocean. This is one of the Company’s main businesses, making outstanding contributions to the Company’s business performance over the years. With the protection under the rigorous rules of international organizations in all the regions, the tuna seining project will enable the Company to achieve stable development in its tuna seining business. (4) Over 30 years of the cultivation of the international marine cold storage market, the Company has established long-term, stable cooperation with many countries and regions, including China, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam, Mexico, Ecuador, and Taiwan of China, built a service brand with distinctive “Zhonglu characteristics,” and enjoyed a good reputation on the Asia-Pacific marine cold storage transport market. (5) The Company has the earliest and largest ultra-low temperature refrigeration storage and raw food processing plant in China. Also, the China Tuna Exchange and the newly built electronic tuna trading platform system strengthen the Company’s advantages in tuna processing and trading. (6) The Company carries out long range fishing in the Atlantic, Indian Oceans and Western-central Pacific, reaches most of the world’s major ports with its cold storage transportation, and covers many countries with import and export. With the implementation of the “Belt and Road” strategy, the countries along the “Belt and Road” will have stronger trust in each other and establish closer cooperation. In addition, the Company and the governments at all levels have rolled out a suite of development plans and industrial preference policies. All these have brought new opportunities for the development of the Company.The Company will leverage the aforementioned advantages to pioneer, innovate, forge ahead, and proactively engage itself in the conversion of old and new growth drivers. It will accelerate strategic transformation, vigorously extend the industrial chain, and further improve its influence and competitiveness in domestic and even international markets. IV.

X. Structured Entities Controlled by the Company □Applicable Not applicable XI. Prospects of the Company’s Future Development With the implementation of its marine strategy, China has rolled out a series of preferential policies for the overseas fishing industry since it is an important part of the ocean economy. China’s overseas fishing industry is developing rapidly, with its long range fishing fleet continuously expanding. However, obtaining resources is still the main focus, and raw fish remains the main product while high value-added processed products, market development, sales, and the production service support system are still weak. Currently, as China is carrying out the conversion of old and new growth drivers, the overseas fishing industry will welcome new opportunities for adjustment, transformation, and development. It is expected that the future development trends will be as follows: First, the oceanic fishing industry will be stabilized. The fishing of pelagic fish, cephalopods, and Antarctic krill will be expanded. Second, the trans-oceanic fishing industry will be strengthened and improved. The transformation and upgrade of this industry will be promoted through a variety of measures, including changing the cooperation models, improving management, upgrading fishing boats, and the merger and acquisition of projects. Third, the cold storage, processing, and trading of aquatic products will be developed through the improvement of the industrial structure and the extension of the industrial chain. Fourth, more efforts will be made to strengthen the development of the production service support system for the fishing industry. Overseas oceanic fishing bases and offshore production platforms will be vigorously developed to carry out value-added business activities, including fishing wharf services, fish warehousing and logistics, fishing boat repairs, marine transportation, replenishment, and refueling services. (I) Prospects of the Company’s main businesses 1. Long range fishing The Company will continue to develop long range fishing centered around seining and longline fishing. Tuna seining: For seining in the Western-central Pacific, as a rare target of the seining in the Western-central Pacific and an important step for reaching the targets of the Company’s “14th Five-Year” Plan, the two large tuna seiners, “Tailong 7” and “Tailong 9,” operated at full steam and realized stably good production. As of now, the two seiners have carried out more than 10 transshipments, and the fish catch they transported back was gradually sold. So far, the company has maintained good cooperation with customers, creating steady channels for the sale of catch, with the catch sold out upon arrival at the port. For seining in the Atlantic, the Company will strengthen management to guarantee the sustainable operation of the boats and ensure the sailing rate. Longline fishing: The Company will proactively explore high-latitude fisheries in the south while maintaining existing fishing access cooperation. Squid fishing: The Company will study and evaluate the feasibility of developing squid fisheries in the Northern Pacific and continuously develop new fisheries and new resources to maintain new profit growth points. Trawling: The two new trawlers with advanced equipment that are suitable for modern marine fishing and conform to national industrial policies went to the waters of Ghana for trawling in the year. The replacement project for the two trawlers has maintained the diversity of operation and the existing profit growth points in the course of the Company’s transoceanic fishing cooperation, which is of great importance for the Company to further develop distant- water fishing and make active use of fishing resources in developing countries and regions to achieve high-quality development. 2. Cold storage transportation The Company will strengthen and boost its cold transportation service. Oceanic cold storage transportation is always a stable business segment in the Company’s business performance. Depending on the specific situation of the cold storage transportation market, the Company will continue to phase out old vessels with small tonnages and upgrade relatively younger cold storage transportation vessels with moderate tonnages to maintain the position of its transportation fleet in the industry. Meanwhile, the Company will explore other types of vessel transportation services to expand its sea transportation services and increase profitability. 3. Cold storage processing and trading The Company will proactively extend its cold storage processing and trade, emphasize “increasing the sales volume,” and expand the paths for enterprise development. First, the Company will stabilize its share of the international market, deliver breakthroughs, and constantly develop new markets and customers. Second, the Company will broaden channels for domestic market sales and increase market control and occupancy. Third, the Company will focus on “strengthening research and innovation” to improve its competitiveness for enterprise development. The Company will beef up the R&D of new products, promote the deep integration of innovation and enterprise development, step up efforts in biotechnology, strive to achieve automatic and intelligent processing, and make sure that it always enjoys an industrially leading position for tuna processing technology and products. Fourth, driven by both brand and innovation, the Company will speed up the advancement of the online and offline sales models, broaden channels for domestic sales, and proactively develop markets at all levels. (II) Future development strategies Closely aligning the strategic goals for its development, the Company will judge the overseas fishing situation, follow the development requirements for listed companies, grasp opportunities to expedite development, prevent risks, and stabilize business performance. The Company will also stick to the overseas fishing industry as its main business, increase brand visibility, and extend the industrial chain according to the development vision of “stabilizing fishing, consolidating the industrial chain model that integrates cold storage, processing, trading, and transportation, improving product structures, and carrying out transformation and upgrading.” (III) Work plan for 2024 The Company will uphold the concept of “reform-based, innovation-driven, standardized, and steady development,” revolve around the guidelines for “maintaining growth, emphasizing standards, adjusting structures, and promoting transformation,” and focus on improving its development quality. With the purpose of increasing economic returns, the Company will convert old growth drivers into new ones, develop markets, and drive the construction of key projects. It will strengthen the business foundation, seek progress while maintaining stable development, blaze new trails, create new models, and take a combination of measures. Centered around the key problems restricting its development, the Company will manage production, operations, transformation, market development, and standardized management. It will proactively cultivate new profit growth points and continuously improve its control, competitiveness, influence, and anti-risk capabilities to ensure the accomplishment of the annual targets. In 2023, the Company will do the following work: 1) improve the management of seining projects, develop more supporting measures, develop diverse markets, increase project profitability, and proactively drive the construction of the two (sets of) large seiners to cultivate profit growth points; 2) stabilize the profitability of the longline tuna fishing project in the Indian Ocean, explore new operating fisheries, dispatch vessels on a scientific basis, conduct business in accordance with laws and regulations, and ensure stable growth in fishing production; 3) strengthen and improve cold storage transportation and purchase and build modern and intelligent transportation vessels; 4) At present, the Southern Pacific tuna cold storage transport market has not reached saturation, with abundant room for development. Hence, the Company plans to acquire a relatively new secondhand cold storage transport vessel with a suitable tonnage.5) proactively develop and extend cold storage processing and trading services, step up efforts to develop new products, deep-processed products, and other high-value-added products, create new sales models, and cultivate new profit growth points; 6) promote the Company’s transformation to an innovation-driven company through “technological, product, business, and management innovation.” (IV) Risks facing the Company and countermeasures 1. Risk of fishing resource fluctuations: Fishing resources usually fluctuate, and sometimes the fluctuations are big. Greater decreases in fishing resources will have a greater impact on the Company’s profits. Cyclic changes, climates, hydrological conditions, and other relevant conditions are all likely to cause fluctuations in fishing resources. Countermeasures: The Company will develop new fisheries, dispatch vessels on a scientific basis, upgrade fishing and production equipment, and gradually improve production vessels. It will make science-based and reasonable arrangements for vessel maintenance, equipment repair, materials, fish baits, spare parts, and logistical support for personnel to ensure high sailing rates. 2. Risk of price fluctuations: The price of tuna raw materials declined continuously from the beginning of 2023 to November. The price of tuna raw materials of various varieties and specifications dropped by about 40%. Since December 2023, the price has recovered slowly, up about 10% from the low levels.Countermeasures: The Company will accelerate the building of a new paradigm focusing on domestic circulation with mutual promotion between domestic and international circulations. It will precisely target the domestic market, develop cooked products that accommodate consumers’ needs, and expand domestic sales channels. 3. Safety risk: The aging of boats causes a reduction in productivity and market competitiveness. Countermeasures: The Company will proactively promote the replacement of aged boats, improve asset allocation, and prevent safety risks. XII.

Opinion We have audited the financial statements of Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd (hereafter referred to as “the Company”), which comprise the consolidated and the Company's balance sheets as at December 31, 2023, the consolidated and the Company's statements of income, the consolidated and the Company's statements of cash flows and the consolidated and the Company's statements of changes in equity for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements. In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2023, and of its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises. II. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Chinese Certified Public Accountants Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Chinese Certified Public Accountants and have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. III. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.The key audit matters identified in our audit are as follows: A. Revenue recognition 1. The Matter Regarding income accounting policies, please refer to Note Ⅳ.27; Please refer to Note Ⅵ.36 for the amount of income generated. In 2023, your company's operating revenue amounted to 1145.2524 million yuan. As revenue is a key indicator of company profits, there is an inherent risk of misstatement in whether revenue is based on real transactions and whether it is included in appropriate accounting periods. Therefore, we have identified revenue recognition as a key audit item. 2. Audit response Our audit procedures for revenue recognition mainly include: ① Understand the internal control design related to revenue recognition in your company, evaluate the effectiveness of the design and implement walkthrough testing, and check whether the relevant internal control systems are effectively implemented; ② Verify the principles and methods of revenue recognition, combined with the essence of the company's business and the "five step method", examine the contract signing methods and contents under different business models, analyze the rights and obligations of the contract signing parties, examine various performance obligations, identify the fulfillment of performance obligations over a period of time, and determine whether the fulfillment of performance obligations at a certain point in time complies with the provisions of the Enterprise Accounting Standards; ③ Check the authenticity of income and the basis for revenue recognition, such as sales contracts, delivery orders, value statements or settlement documents, transportation bills, customs declaration materials, bills of lading, credit policies, etc. Evaluate whether your company's revenue recognition meets the requirements of the Enterprise Accounting Standards based on the collection of accounts receivable after the period; ④ Conduct a cut-off test, select samples from income transactions recorded before and after the balance sheet date, and check for any cross period income; ⑤ Implement a letter of confirmation procedure for major clients, extract sufficient samples to verify the amount and balance of accounts receivable and contractual liabilities, and confirm the reasonableness of revenue recognition. B. The impairment of inventory 1. Key audit matters Regarding inventory accounting policies, please refer to Note Ⅳ.11; Please refer to Note Ⅵ.6 for the book balance and provision for impairment of inventory. As of December 31, 2023, the book balance of your company's inventory is 573.2376 million yuan, with a provision for impairment of 77.5381 million yuan and a book value of 495.6995 million yuan, accounting for 24.20% of the total assets at the end of the period. Given the significant amount of inventory and the significant judgment of management involved in the provision for inventory impairment, we have identified the provision for inventory impairment as a key audit item. 2. Audit response Our audit procedures for inventory impairment mainly include: ① Understand the design of internal controls related to inventory management and inventory impairment in your company, evaluate the effectiveness of the design and implement walkthrough tests, and check whether the relevant internal control systems are effectively implemented; ② Implementing inventory monitoring, checking the quantity, condition, and product shelf life of inventory; ③ Obtain the inventory age list of ending inventory, conduct analytical review on inventory with longer inventory age, and analyze whether the provision for inventory impairment is reasonable; ④ Analyze the changes in the provision for inventory impairment made in previous years during the current period, and assess the adequacy of the provision for inventory impairment; Obtain the latest product sales prices before and after the balance sheet date, sample the inventory sold after the balance sheet date, and compare the actual selling price of the sample with the expected selling price; ⑤ Obtain the calculation table and relevant basis for impairment provision provision from the management, evaluate the rationality of the key data provisioned, and recalculate to evaluate the accuracy of the management's impairment calculation process; ⑥ Review whether the provision for inventory depreciation has been fully and appropriately disclosed in accordance with the standard requirements. IV. Other Information The directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all of the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. V. Responsibilities of the Directors and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process. VI. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: A. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. B. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. C. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. D. Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. E. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. F. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Accounting treatment method of enterprise merger under the same control and not under the same control. Enterprise merger refers to the transaction or event in which two or more separate enterprises are merged to form a reporting entity. Business merger is divided into enterprise merger under the same control and enterprise merger not under the same control. (1) Enterprise merger under the same control The enterprises participating in the merger are subject to the final control of the same party or the same multiple parties before and after the merger, and the control is not temporary and is the enterprise merger under the same control. For an enterprise merger under the same control, the party acquiring control over the other enterprises participating in the merger on the merger date shall be the merger party, and the other enterprises participating in the merger shall be the merged party. The merger date refers to the date on which the merged party actually obtains the control right of the incorporated party. The assets and liabilities acquired by the consolidated party are measured at the book value of the consolidated party at the 87 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. merger date. The balance between the book value of the net assets acquired by the consolidated party (or the total book value of the issued shares) shall adjust the capital reserve (equity premium); if the capital reserve (equity premium) is insufficient to offset, the retained earnings shall be adjusted. The merger party is the direct expenses incurred in the enterprise merger, which shall be recorded into the current profit and loss at the time of occurrence. (2) Enterprise merger not under the same control If the enterprise participating in the merger is not under the final control of the same party or the same multiple parties before and after the merger, it is the enterprise merger not under the same control. For an enterprise merger not under the same control, the party who obtains the control right over the other enterprises participating in the merger on the purchase date shall be the acquirer, and the other enterprises participating in the merger shall be the acquiree. The date of purchase is the date on which the acquirer actually obtains control over the acquiree. For merger of enterprises not under the same control, the cost of consolidation includes the assets paid by the acquirer on the purchase date to acquire control over the acquiree, liabilities incurred or assumed by the acquirer and equity securities issued to acquire control of the acquiree at the purchase date. The cost of audit for the merger of the enterprise, legal services, evaluation and consulting intermediary fees and other management fees shall be recorded in the current profit and losses. The transaction expense of equity or debt securities issued by the acquirer as the combined consideration shall be included in the initial recognized amount of equity or debt securities. The contingent consideration involved shall be included in the consolidated cost according to its fair value on the purchase date. If there is new or further evidence of the existed situations of the purchase date within 12 months after it, the consolidated goodwill shall be adjusted accordingly. The merger costs incurred by the acquirer and the identifiable net assets acquired in the merger should be measured at the fair value of the purchase date. The difference between the merger cost and the share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the purchased party on the purchase date shall be recognized as goodwill. If the consolidated cost is less than the fair value of identifiable net assets of the merger, first of the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities and combined cost measurement, review the combined cost is still less than the identifiable net assets of the merger, the difference included in the current profit and loss. If the acquirer obtains the deductible temporary difference of the acquiree, and is not recognized on the purchase date because it does not meet the conditions of deferred income tax assets for recognition, if new or further information confirming the existence of relevant situations is obtained with in 12 months after the purchase date, the acquirer shall confirm the deferred income tax assets and reduce the goodwill, if the goodwill is insufficient, the difference shall be recognized as the current profit and loss; Except for the above situation, the deferred income tax assets related to the enterprise merger shall be included in the current profit and loss. For business merger not under the same control achieved through multiple transactions step by step, it should be determined whether the multiple transactions belongs to "package deal" according to the Ministry of Finance on the notice of the accounting standards interpretation no. 5 (accounting [2012] no. 19) and "accounting standards no. 33 —— consolidated financial statements" article 51 criteria about "package deal" (see Note Ⅳ.6, judging criteria of the control and preparation of the consolidated financial statements), For "package transaction", refer to the previous paragraphs in this section for accounting treatment; For those not belong to "package transaction", distinguish individual financial statements from consolidated financial statements in the accounting statement: In individual financial statements, the sum of the book value of the equity interest of the acquiree held prior to the purchase date and the cost of new investment on the purchase date is taken as the initial investment cost of the investment. Where the equity 88 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. interest of the acquiree held prior to the purchase date involves other comprehensive income, the other comprehensive income associated with the investment will be accounted for on the same basis as if the acquiree had disposed of the relevant asset or liability directly (i.e., With the exception of the corresponding share of the change resulting from the remeasurement of net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan by the acquiree under the equity method, the remainder is transferred to investment income for the period). In the consolidated financial statements, for the equity of the acquiree held prior to the purchase date, remeasure at the fair value of the equity at the purchase date, the difference between the fair value and its book value shall be included in the current investment income; Where the equity of the acquiree held before the purchase date involves other comprehensive income, the other comprehensive income shall be treated on the same basis as the direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities (i. e., Except for the corresponding share accounted for under the equity method in the change resulting from the remeasurement of net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan by the acquirer, the remainder is converted to investment income for the period at the purchase date). 6. Judging standard of control and the preparation method of the consolidated financial statements (1) Judging standard of the control The consolidation scope of consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis of control. Control means that the Company has the power over the investee, enjoys a variable return by participating in the relevant activities of the investee, and has the ability to use the power of the investee to influence the amount of the return. Among them, the Company has the current right to enable the Company to dominate the relevant activities of the investee regardless of whether the Company actually exercises the power; if the return from the investee may change with the performance of the investee, it shall be deemed to enjoy a variable return; if the Company exercises the decision-making power as the principal responsible person, the Company shall be deemed to use the power of the investee to affect the return amount. The scope of the merger includes the Company and all of its subsidiaries. Subsidiary, refers to the subject controlled by the Company. The Company judges whether to control the investee on the basis of comprehensive consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances. The relevant facts and conditions mainly include: the purpose of the establishment of the investee; the relevant activities of the investee and how to make decisions on the relevant activities; whether the rights of the Company enable the Company to dominate the relevant activities of the investee; whether the Company enjoys a variable return by participating in the relevant activities of the investee; whether the Company has the ability to influence the power of the investee; the relationship between the Company and the other parties, etc. Once changes in the relevant facts and circumstances lead to changes in the relevant elements involved in the above control definition, the Company will reevaluate them. (2) Method of preparing the consolidated financial statements From the date of acquiring the net assets of the subsidiary and the actual control right of production and operation decisions, the Company will begin to bring it into the merger scope, and stop to do to so after the date of losing the actual control right. For the subsidiaries under disposal, the operating results and cash flow before the disposal date have been appropriately included in the consolidated income statement and the consolidated cash flow statement; for the current disposition subsidiaries, the beginning of the consolidated balance sheet will not be adjusted. For subsidiaries not under the same control, the operating results and cash flow after the purchase date have been appropriately included in the consolidated income statement and the consolidated cash flow statement, and the initial and comparative numbers of the consolidated financial statements will not be adjusted. For the subsidiaries increased by the enterprise merger under the same control and the merged party under the absorption merger, the operating results and cash flow from the beginning of the current period to the merger date have been 89 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. appropriately included in the consolidated income statement and the consolidated cash flow statement, and the comparison number of the consolidated financial statements shall be adjusted at the same time. At the time of preparing the consolidated financial statements, if the accounting policies or accounting periods adopted by the subsidiary is inconsistent with that adopted by the Company, necessary adjustments to the financial statements of the subsidiary shall be made in accordance with the accounting policies and accounting periods of the Company. For subsidiaries not acquired under the same control, their financial statements shall be adjusted on the basis of the fair value of identifiable net assets on the purchase date. All significant transaction balances, transactions and outstanding profits within the Company should be offset by the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The shareholders' equity and the net profit and loss of the current period that are not owned by the Company should be listed separately as the minority shareholders' equity and the minority shareholders' profit and loss under the shareholders' equity and net profit in the consolidated financial statements. The share of the current net profit and loss of the subsidiary belonging to the minority shareholders' equity shall be listed in the item of "minority shareholders' profit and loss" under the net profit items in the consolidated profit statement. The loss of the subsidiary shared by the minority shareholders exceeds the share of the minority shareholders 'equity of the subsidiary at the beginning of the period, and the number of the shareholders' equity is still reduced. When the control of the original subsidiary is lost due to the disposal of some equity investment or other reasons, the remaining equity shall be remeasured according to its fair value on the date of the loss of control. The sum of the consideration obtained from the disposal of the shares and the fair value of the remaining shares, after deducting the share of the net assets of the original subsidiary calculated from the purchase date, shall be included in the investment income of the period of the loss of control. For other comprehensive income related to the equity investment of the original subsidiary, the accounting treatment of control shall be lost on the same basis as the direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities of the subsidiary. Subsequently, the remaining equity shall be measured in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.2 —— Long- term Equity Investment or Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.22 —— Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments and other relevant provisions, see Note Ⅳ and 14 "Long-term Equity Investment" or Note Ⅳ and 10 "Financial Instruments". If the Company disposed of the equity investment in the subsidiary until the loss of control through multiple transactions, it is necessary to distinguish whether the transaction of the equity investment until the loss of control is a package transaction. If the terms, conditions and economic impact of the disposal of subsidiary equity investments meet one or more of the following circumstances, usually indicating that those multiple transactions should be treated as package transactions: 1 These transactions are made simultaneously or made in consideration of mutual influence; 2 These deals as a whole can achieve a complete business result; 3 The occurrence of one transaction depends on the occurrence of at least one other transaction; 4 One trade is uneconomical, but it is economic when considered together with other trades. For each transaction that does not belong to the package transaction, according to the circumstances, the principle of "partial disposal of long-term equity investment of subsidiaries without losing control" (see Note Ⅳ,14 "long-term equity investment" (2) ④) and "loss of control of the disposal of the original subsidiary" (see the preceding paragraph) should be applied in the accounting treatment. If the transaction of the subsidiary equity investment until the loss of control is a package transaction, the transaction shall be treated as a transaction of the disposal of the subsidiary and losing the control; however, the difference 90 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. between the disposal price and the share of the net assets of the subsidiary before the loss of control should be recognized as other comprehensive income in the consolidated financial statements, and the profit and loss of the period of the loss of control. 7. Classification of joint venture arrangement and accounting treatment methods for joint operation Joint venture arrangement means an arrangement under the joint control of two or more parties. The Company shall, according to the rights and obligations enjoyed in the joint venture arrangement, divide the joint venture arrangement into joint operation and joint company. Joint operation means the joint venture arrangement in which the Company enjoys the relevant assets of the arrangement and assumes the liabilities related to the arrangement. Joint company means a joint venture arrangement in which the Company only enjoys rights to the net assets of the arrangement. The company's investment in joint venture shall be calculated by equity method, which shall be treated in accordance with the accounting policies described in Note Ⅳ,14 "Long-term Equity Investment" (2) ② "Long-term equity investment calculated by equity method". The Company, as the joint venture, recognizes the assets held by the Company, the liabilities and the liabilities held by the shares of the Company, and the liabilities held by the Company. Recognize the income generated by the sale of the share of the output incurred by the Company, and the expenses incurred by the Company in accordance with the share of the Company. When the Company invests or sells assets as the joint venture (the assets do not constitute business, the same should be applied below) or purchases assets from the joint venture, prior to the sale of such assets to a third party, the Company recognizes only the portion of the profit or loss arising from the transaction attributable to other participants in the joint venture. For the asset impairment loss in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.8 —— Asset Impairment, the Company shall recognize the loss for the assets that the Company purchased the assets, the Company shall recognize the loss according to the share borne by itself. 8. Standards for determining cash and cash equivalents Cash refers to cash on hand and deposits that can be used for payment at any time. Cash equivalents refer to investments held by the company with a short term (generally due within three months from the purchase date), which are highly liquid, easy to be converted into a known amount of cash and with little risk of change in value. 9. Foreign currency business and foreign currency statement translation (1) The method for determining the exchange rate when foreign currency transactions occur When a foreign currency transaction is initially recognized, the approximate spot exchange rate on the day of the transaction is used to convert the amount into RMB. (2) On the balance sheet date, foreign currency currency items and foreign currency non-currency items shall be treated in the following methods: ① Foreign currency currency items shall be converted through the central parity rate of RMB foreign exchange price published by the People's Bank of China on the balance sheet date. The exchange difference caused from the difference between the spot exchange rate on the balance sheet date and the initial recognition date or the previous balance sheet date shall be included in the current profit and loss. ② Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost shall still be converted at the spot exchange rate on the date of the transaction without changing the bookkeeping standard amount; foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair 91 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. value shall be converted at the spot exchange rate on the date of fair value; the difference between the original bookkeeping standard amount shall be treated as the change of fair value (including change in exchange rate) and be included into the current profit and loss or other comprehensive income according to the nature of the non-monetary items. Monetary items refer to the monetary funds held by the Company and the assets or liabilities to be collected in a fixed or definite amount. Non-monetary items refer to items other than monetary items. (3) Conversion method of foreign currency financial statements of overseas operating entities: ① The assets and liabilities in the balance sheet shall be converted at the spot exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and the owner's equity items except the "undistributed profit" shall be converted at the spot exchange rate at the time of occurrence; ② The income and expense items in the income statement shall be converted at the exchange rate similar ③ The conversion difference in the foreign currency financial statements generated from the above ① and ② conversion shall be listed separately under the owner's equity items in the balance sheet.to the spot exchange rate on the date of the transaction; ④ The financial statements of overseas operations in hyperinflation economy shall be converted in the following methods: Restate the balance sheet items by using the general price index, and restate the income statement items by using the general price index changes, then convert at the spot rate at the latest balance sheet date. When the overseas operation is no longer in the hyperinflation economy, the restatement shall be stopped and the financial statements reconverted according to the price level on the date of cessation. ⑤ In the disposal of overseas operations, the Company shall convert the difference between the foreign currency financial statements related to the owner equity items of the balance sheet for the current disposal of overseas operations, the conversion difference of the foreign currency financial statements of the disposal portion shall be calculated at the proportion of the disposal and transferred to the profit and loss of the current disposal. 10.Financial instrument The financial instrument means a contract that forms the financial assets of one party and forms the financial liabilities or equity instruments of the other party. When the Company becomes a party to the financial instrument contract, it recognize the relevant financial assets or financial liabilities. (1) Financial Assets 1 Classification and the initial measurement According to the business model of managing financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets, the Company divides the financial assets into: 1) Financial assets measured at an amortized cost The Company manages the business model of financial assets measured at amortized cost, and the contract cash flow characteristic of such financial assets is consistent with the basic lending arrangement, that is, the cash flow generated on a specific date is only the payment of the principal and the interest based on the outstanding principal amount. For such financial assets, the Company adopts the real interest rate method to conduct the follow-up measurement for the amortized cost, and the profit or loss generated by the amortization or impairment shall be recorded in the current profit and loss. 2) Financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income 92 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. The business model of the Company for managing such financial assets is to target both collecting and selling of the contractual cash flow, and the contractual cash flow characteristics of such financial assets are consistent with the basic lending arrangement. The Company measures such financial assets at fair value and their changes are included in other comprehensive income, but the impairment losses or gains, exchange gains and losses and interest income calculated in accordance with the real interest rate method are included in the current profits and losses.among: <1> Debt instrument investment measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other c Subsequent measurement should be performed at fair value. Interest rates, impairment losses or gains and exchange gains and losses calculated by the real interest rate method shall be included in the current profits and losses, while other gains or losses shall be included in other comprehensive gains. Upon the termination of recognition, the accumulated gains or losses previously included in other comprehensive income shall be transferred from other comprehensive income and recorded in the current profit and loss.omprehensive income <2> Equity instrument investment measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income Subsequent measurement should be performed at fair value. The dividends obtained (except for the part of the investment cost recovery) shall be included in the current profit and loss, and other gains or losses shall be included in other comprehensive income. Upon the termination of recognition, the accumulated gains or losses previously included in other comprehensive income shall be transferred from other comprehensive income and included in the retained earnings. For non-trading equity instrument investments, the Company may, upon initial recognition, irrevocably designate them as a financial asset measured at fair value and its changes included in other comprehensive income. The designation is made on the basis of a single investment, and the relevant investment meets the definition of the equity instrument from the perspective of the issuer. 3) Financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in the current profit and loss. The Company classifies the above financial assets measured at amortized cost and the financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income as the financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in the current profit and loss. In addition, at the initial recognition, in order to eliminate or significantly reduce the accounting mismatch, the Company designated some financial assets as financial assets measured at fair value and their changes are included in the current profit and loss. For such financial assets, the Company adopts the fair value for subsequent measurement, and the change in the fair value is included in the current profit and loss. The investment in equity instruments over which the Company has no control, joint control and significant influence will be measured at fair value and its changes will be included in current profit or loss, and listed as trading financial assets; Those expected to hold for more than one year from the balance sheet date are listed as other non-current financial assets. Financial assets are measured at fair value at the initial recognition. For financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in the current profit and loss, relevant transaction expenses are directly included in the current profit and loss; for other categories of financial assets, relevant transaction expenses are included in the initial recognition amount. For accounts receivable or notes receivable arising from the sale of products or the provision of services that do not include or do not take into account the significant financing components, the amount of consideration that the Company is expected to be entitled to collect shall be the initial recognition amount. 4) Equity instrument 93 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. An equity instrument is a contract that demonstrates ownership of the remaining interest in the assets excluding all liabilities. The company's issuance (including refinancing), repurchase, sale or cancellation of equity instruments shall be treated as changes in equity, and the transaction expenses related to equity transactions shall be deducted from the equity. The Company does not recognize the change in the fair value of the equity instruments. During the duration of the Company (including the "interest" generated by the "instruments" classified as "equity instruments"), it shall be treated as profit distribution. 2 Impairment of financial assets 1) Method of recognition of the impairment provision On the basis of expected credit loss, the Company makes impairment provision and confirms the applicable expected credit loss measurement method (general method or simplified method). Credit loss refers to the difference between all the contractual cash flows receivable under the contract and all the expected cash flows collected, i. e., the present value of the total cash shortage. Among them, for the financial assets purchased or derived with credit impairment, the Company shall discount the actual interest rate of the financial assets. The general method of measuring expected credit loss refers to measuring whether the credit risk of the financial assets (including contract assets and other applicable items, the same below) assessed by the Company on the balance sheet date has increased significantly since the initial confirmation, the Company measures the loss preparation according to the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss in the whole duration; if the credit risk does not increase significantly after the initial confirmation, the Company measures the loss preparation according to the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss in the next 12 months. For the financial assets purchased or derived with credit impairment, the Company shall only recognize the cumulative changes of the expected credit loss during the initial period on the balance sheet date. The Company considers all reasonable and grounded information, including forward-looking information, when assessing expected credit losses. For receivables and contractual assets that are formed from transactions regulated by Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue and do not have a significant financing component or that the Company does not take into account the financing component of contracts not exceeding one year, the Company uses a simplified measurement method to measure the loss provision in terms of the amount of expected credit losses over the entire duration. For financial assets other than the above measurement methods, the Company assess whether its credit risk has significantly increased since the initial recognition. If the credit risk has significantly increased since the initial confirmation, the Company measures the loss provision according to the amount of the expected credit loss in the entire duration; if the credit risk does not increase significantly after the initial confirmation, the Company measures the loss provision according to the amount of the expected credit loss in the next 12 months. The Company uses available reasonable and warranted information, including forward-looking information, to compare the risk of default of the financial instrument on the balance sheet date with the risk of default on the initial recognition date to determine whether the credit risk of the financial instrument has increased significantly since the initial confirmation. On the balance sheet date, if the Company determines that the financial instrument only has a low credit risk, it is assumed that the credit risk of the financial instrument has not increased significantly since the initial recognition. The Company evaluates expected credit risk and measures expected credit losses on the basis of a single financial instrument or portfolio of financial instruments. When based on a combination of financial instruments, the Company divides financial instruments into different combinations based on common risk characteristics. The Company re-measures the expected credit loss on each balance sheet date, and the increase or reversal of the loss provision will be recorded as impairment loss or gains. For the financial assets measured at amortized cost, the loss provision shall offset 94 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. the book value of the financial assets listed in the balance sheet; for the debt investment measured at fair value and its changes included in other comprehensive income, the Company confirms the loss provision in other comprehensive income, which does not offset the book value of the financial assets. 2) The criterion of whether credit risk increases significantly after initial confirmation If the default probability of a financial asset within the expected duration determined on the balance sheet date is significantly higher than the default probability determined during the expected duration determined at the initial confirmation, it indicates that the credit risk of the financial asset is significantly increased. Except in special circumstances, the Company should use the change of the default risk in the next 12 months as a reasonable estimate of the change of the default risk during the entire duration to determine whether the credit risk increases significantly after the initial confirmation. 3) A portfolio approach to assessing expected credit risk on a portfolio basis The Company evaluates credit risks for individual financial assets with significantly different credit risks, such as receivables of relevant parties, receivables for matters in dispute with the other side or matters involved in litigation or arbitration, and receivables where the debtor is likely to fail to fulfill repayment obligations. In addition to individual financial assets that assess credit risk, the Company divides financial assets into different groups based on common risk characteristics and evaluates credit risk on the basis of a portfolio. 4) Accounting treatment method for the impairment of financial assets At the end of the period, the Company calculates the estimated credit loss of various financial assets, if the estimated credit loss is greater than the book amount of the current impairment provision, the difference should be recognized as an impairment loss; if it is less than the current impairment provision, the difference should be recognized as an impairment gain. 5) Determination method of credit loss of various financial assets The company needs to confirm the impairment loss of financial assets measured by amortized cost of financial assets, debt instruments measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive incomes, as well as lease receivables, mainly including notes receivable, accounts receivable, receivables financing, other receivables, creditor's rights investment, other creditor's rights investment, long-term receivables, etc. In addition, for the contract assets and part of the financial guarantee contracts, impairment provisions and credit impairment losses are confirmed in accordance with the accounting policies described in this part. <1> The account for receivables and contract assets for expected credit losses based on a combination of credit risk characteristics Basis for confirming the Consolidation category Method of measuring expected credit losses consolidation Bank acceptance bill receivable With reference to the historical credit loss experience, combined with the current situation and the forecast of the future economic Bill type situation, the expected credit loss should be calculated through the Trade acceptance receivable default risk exposure and the expected credit loss rate of the whole duration With reference to the historical experience of credit loss, and Receivable-Account receivable age combined with the current situation and the forecast of the future portfolio Account receivable age economic situation, the comparison table between the age of Contract asset - Account receivable age accounts receivable and the expected credit loss rate of the whole Portfolio duration is prepared to calculate the expected credit loss Accounts receivable —— consolidated Based on historical credit loss experience, current conditions and Scope of merger related parties portfolio expected future economic conditions With reference to the historical credit loss experience, combined Other receivables - Account receivable age with the current situation and the forecast of the future economic Account receivable age portfolio situation, prepare the comparison table of other receivables age and the expected credit loss rate, and calculate the expected credit loss 95 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd.

For the receivables and contract assets formed by the transactions regulated by the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.14 —— Income, the Company uses the simplified measurement method to measure the loss preparation according to the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss within the entire duration. For leasing receivables, by the accounting standards for enterprises no. 14 —— income specification of transaction formation, and without significant financing components or the company does not consider not more than a year of financing receivables and contract assets of the contract, the company using the simplified measurement method, according to the entire duration of expected credit loss amount measurement loss. For notes receivable and debt receivables measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income, if the maturity period is within one year (including one year from the initial confirmation date), they shall be reported as receivables financing. The Company measures the impairment loss by using the amount of the expected credit loss of the entire duration. Debt investment is mainly accounted for by bond investment measured at amortized cost. The Company measures the impairment loss in the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss within the next 12 months, or for the entire duration, based on whether its credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition. Other creditor's rights investments shall be mainly accounted for bond investment measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income. Financing of receivables with a maturity period of more than one year from the initial confirmation date shall also be reported as other creditor's rights investments. For other debt investments (including receivables listed in other debt investments), the Company shall measure the impairment loss by using the amount equivalent to the expected credit loss within the next 12 months or the entire duration based on whether its credit risk has increased significantly after the initial confirmation. For receivables financing that does not include major financing components, the Company measures the loss preparation according to the expected amount of credit loss equivalent to the entire duration. <3> The criteria for the identification of receivables and contract assets for the provision of expected credit losses on a single basis For receivables and contract assets whose credit risk is significantly different from combined credit risk, the Company shall draw expected credit losses according a single item. 96 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 3 Confirmation basis and measurement method for terminating the transfer of financial assets If the financial assets meet one of the following conditions, the recognition of them shall be terminated: 1) Termination of the contractual right to collect the cash flow of the financial assets; 2) The financial assets have been transferred, and the Company transfers almost all the risks and rewards in the ownership of the financial assets to the transferred party; 3) The financial asset has been transferred. Although the Company has neither transferred nor retained almost all the risks and rewards in the ownership of the financial asset, it has abandoned the control of the financial asset. Upon the confirmation termination of the investment of other equity instruments, the difference between the book value and the consideration received and the sum of the fair value directly recorded in other comprehensive income shall be included in the retained earnings, and the book value of the remaining financial assets and the sum of the fair value directly recorded in other comprehensive income shall be included in the current profit and loss. If the Company has neither transferred nor retained almost all the risks and rewards in the ownership of the financial assets, and has not abandoned the control over the financial assets, the relevant financial assets shall be recognized according to the extent of the transferred financial assets, and the relevant liabilities shall be recognized accordingly. The degree to which the continued involvement of the transferred financial assets is involved refers to the risk level faced by the enterprise caused by the change in the value of the financial assets. If the overall transfer of financial assets meets the conditions for termination of recognition, the difference between the book value of the transferred financial assets and the sum between the sum of the consideration received from the transfer and the fair value change originally included in other comprehensive income shall be included in the current profit and loss. If the partial transfer of the financial assets meets the conditions of termination of recognition, the book value of the transferred financial assets shall be apportioned according to the relative fair value between the fair value of the transfer and the sum of the sum of the transfer of the transfer shall be included into the current profit and loss. For the financial assets sold by recourse, or the endorsement transfer of the held financial assets, the Company needs to determine whether almost all the risks and rewards in the ownership of the financial assets have been transferred. If almost all the risks and rewards in the ownership of the financial asset have been transferred to the transferred party, the recognition of the financial asset should be terminated; if the financial asset retains the ownership of the financial asset and almost all the risks and rewards in the ownership of the financial asset, the recognition of the financial asset should not be terminated, if there is no transfer nor retention of almost all the risks and remuneration in the ownership of the financial asset, the company shall continue to judge whether the enterprise has retained the control of the asset and conduct treatment according to the principles described in the preceding paragraphs. 4 Cancel after verification If the Company no longer reasonably expects that the contractual cash flow of the financial asset can be recovered in whole or in part, the book balance of the financial asset will be written down directly. This write-down constitutes the termination of recognition of the relevant financial assets. This usually occurs when the Company determines that the debtor has no assets or sources of income to generate sufficient cash flow to repay the amount that will be written down. However, the financial assets under the Company may allow the process to be affected by the execution activities. If the write-down financial assets are recovered later, they shall be transferred back as impairment losses and recorded into the profits and losses of the current period. (2) Financial liabilities 97 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. Financial liabilities are classified at the initial recognition as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost and financial liabilities measured at fair value and whose changes are included in the current profits and losses. In addition to the following, the Company classifies financial liabilities as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost costs: ① Financial liabilities measured at fair value and whose changes are included in current profits and losses, include transactional financial liabilities (including derivatives of financial liabilities) and financial liabilities designated as measured at fair value and whose changes are included in current profits and losses. ② The transfer of financial assets does not meet the conditions for termination of recognition or continues to be involved in the transferred financial assets. ③ The financial guarantee contract not subject to Item ① or ② of this Article and a loan commitment at a below market rate that is not subject to Item ① of this Article. In a business merger not under the same control, if the contingent consideration recognized by the Company as the acquirer forms the financial liabilities, the financial liabilities should be measured at fair value and the changes should be included in the profit and loss of the current period. At the time of initial recognition, in order to provide more relevant accounting information, the Company may designate financial liabilities measured at fair value and recorded in the profit and loss of the current period, which meets one of the following conditions: 1) Eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatch. 2) Manage and evaluate the performance of a portfolio of financial liabilities or a portfolio of financial assets and financial liabilities on a fair value basis in accordance with the corporate risk management or investment strategy set out in formal written documents, and report internally to key management on that basis. Such designation, once made, cannot be revoked. The financial liabilities of the Company are mainly financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, including notes payable and accounts payable, other payables, borrowings and bonds payable, etc. Such financial liabilities are initially measured according to the fair value after deducting transaction expenses, and subsequently measured by the real interest rate method. If the term is less than one year (including one year), it should be listed as current liabilities; if the term is more than one year but is due within one year (including one year) from the balance sheet date, it should be listed as non-current liabilities due within one year; the rest are listed as non-current liabilities. When the current obligation of the financial liability has been discharged in whole or in part, the Company terminate the recognition of the part of the financial liability or discharged obligation. The difference between the book value of the terminated part and the consideration paid shall be included in the current profit and loss. If the current obligation of the financial liability (or a part of it) has been discharged, the Company shall terminate the recognition of the financial liability (or such a part of the financial liability). (3) Determination of fair value of financial instruments For financial instruments with active market, the fair value should be determined by the quotation in the active market. For financial instruments with no active market, the valuation techniques should be used to determine their fair value. The company divides the input values used by the valuation technology at the following levels and uses them successively: ① The first level of input value is an unadjusted offer of the same assets or liabilities in the active market that can be obtained on the measurement date; ② The second level of input value is the input value directly or indirectly visible besides the first level of input value, including: the quotation of similar assets or liabilities in the active market; the quotation of the same or similar assets or liabilities in the nonactive market; the other observable input value other than the quotation, such as the interest rate and yield curve observable during the normal quotation interval; the input value of market verification, etc.; 98 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. ③ The third level of input value is the unobservable input value of the relevant assets or liabilities, including interest rates that cannot be directly observed or cannot be verified by observable market data, stock volatility, future cash flow of abandonment obligations in business mergers, financial forecasts made using their own data, etc. (4) Follow-up measurement After the initial recognition, the Company shall measure different categories of financial assets at amortized cost, fair value and their changes in other comprehensive income or fair value and their changes in the current profit and loss. After the initial recognition, the Company shall measure different categories of financial liabilities at amortized cost, fair value and changes in the current profit or loss or by other appropriate methods. The amortized cost of a financial asset or financial liability is determined by the initial recognized amount of the financial asset or financial liability after the following adjustments: ① Deduct the repaid principal. ② Add or subtract the cumulative amortization amount formed by amortifying the difference between the initial recognized amount and the due date amount by the effective interest rate method. ③ Excluding accumulated losses (only for financial assets). The Company recognizes the interest income in accordance with the real interest rate method. Interest income should be calculated from the book balance of financial assets multiplied by the effective interest rate unless: 1) For the financial assets purchased or derived with credit impairment, the Company shall determine the interest income according to the amortized cost of the amortized assets and the actual interest rate of the financial assets. 2) For the purchased or generated financial assets that have no credit impairment but become credit impairment in the subsequent period, the Company shall determine the interest income according to the amortized cost and actual interest rate of the financial assets in the subsequent period. If the Company uses the real interest rate method to calculate the credit impairment in the subsequent period, and the improvement can be objectively related to an event occurring after the application of the above policy (if the credit rating of the debtor's credit rating is raised), the Company transfers the real interest rate multiplied by the book balance of the financial assets. 11.Inventory (1) Classification of inventory Inventory includes raw materials, in-process products, semi-finished products, finished products, inventory goods, turnover materials, low-value consumables and contract performance costs, etc. (For "Contract Performance Cost", see Note Ⅳ, 28 and "Contract Acquisition Cost and Contract Performance Cost".) (2) Method of valuation of issued issued The inventory should be priced on the weighted average basis when issued. (3) The basis for determining the net realizable value of inventory and the withdrawal method for inventory depreciation reserve On the balance sheet date, the inventory shall be measured according to the lower cost and the net realizable value. If the inventory cost is higher than its net realizable value, the provision for inventory depreciation shall be withdrawn and recorded into the current profit and loss. Net realizable value refers to the amount after the estimated selling price of inventory minus the estimated cost, estimated sales expenses and related taxes at completion. The net realizable value of various inventories is determined as follows: 99 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. ① The inventory of goods directly used for sale, such as finished products, goods and materials used for sale, shall, in the normal process of production and operation, determine the net realizable value after the estimated selling price of the inventory minus the estimated sales expenses and relevant taxes. ② For the inventory of materials to be processed, its net realizable value is determined in the normal course of production and operation by the estimated selling price of the finished products produced less the estimated cost to be incurred at the time of completion, estimated selling expenses and related taxes. ③ On the balance sheet date, if one part of the same inventory has the contract price without the other part, the net realizable value shall be determined respectively, and compared with the corresponding cost, the amount of the withdrawal or reversal of the inventory depreciation provision shall be determined respectively. Inventory depreciation provision shall be made according to a single inventory item (or inventory category), and inventory depreciation provision shall be related to the same or similar product series produced or sold in the same region, and is difficult to be measured separately from other items. (4) Inventory system The inventory system adopts the perpetual inventory system. (5) The amortization method of low-value consumables and packaging The low-value consumables are amortized by 50-50. 12.Contract assets (1) Methods and standards for the recognition of contract assets The contractual asset means the right to receive a consideration and to depend on any other factor than the passage of time. Contractual assets and liabilities under the same contract are listed in net value, and contractual assets and liabilities under different contracts shall not be offset. (2) Methods for determining and accounting for expected credit losses of contract assets The provision for impairment of contract assets shall be subject to the expected credit loss method of financial instruments. For contractual assets that do not include significant financing components, the Company uses a simplified method to measure loss preparation. For contractual assets containing significant financing components, the Company measures loss provisions in general methods. In case of impairment loss of the contract assets, the amount shall be deducted and the "asset impairment loss" shall debit the provision for impairment of the contract assets. 13.Holding assets for sale or disposal group (1) Non-current assets held for sale or disposal group recognition criteria If the Company recovers its book value primarily by sale (including the exchange of non-monetary assets with commercial substance, the same below) rather than the continuous use of a non-current asset or disposal group, it should be categorized under “held for sale”. The specific criteria shall simultaneously meet the following conditions: ① According to the practice of selling such assets or disposal groups in similar transactions, they can be sold immediately under current conditions; ② The sale is most likely, where the company has made a resolution on a sale plan and obtained a definite purchase 100 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. commitment, and the sale is expected to be completed within a year. Among them, the disposal group is a group of assets disposed of as a whole by sale or other method in a transaction, and the liabilities directly related to those assets transferred in the transaction. Where the asset group or asset group portfolio of the disposal group shares the goodwill acquired in the enterprise merger in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.8-Asset Impairment, the disposal group shall include the goodwill allocated to the disposal group. (2) Accounting treatment methods If the carrying value of non-current assets held for sale and disposal group is higher than the net amount after using the fair value minus disposal expense when the initial measurement or remeasurement is made at the balance sheet date, the carrying value should be written down to the net amount after using the fair value minus the disposal expense, and the amount written down should be recognized as asset impairment loss and included in current profit or loss, and the impairment provision for assets held for sale should also be made. For the disposal group, the confirmed asset impairment loss first offset the carrying value of goodwill in the disposal group, and then offset the book value of the non-current assets stipulated in the accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.42- -Non-current Assets held for Sale, Disposal Group and Terminated Operation (hereinafter referred to as the "Standards for Holding for Sale" in the disposal group). After deducting the selling expense, if the net amount of the fair value of the disposal group held for sale increased on the subsequent balance sheet date, the amount previously written down shall be restored and reversed within the amount of asset impairment loss recognized in the non- current assets as prescribed by the held for sale standard after being classified into the holding for sale category, the carry-back amount is recognised in profit or loss for the current period and its carrying value is increased in proportion to the carrying value of each non-current asset in the disposal group as measured by the applicable hold-for-sale criteria other than goodwill; The carrying value of goodwill that has been written off, as well as the asset impairment losses recognized prior to classifying non-current assets as held for sale under the applicable holding for sale measurement criteria, cannot be rolled back. There is no depreciation or amortization of the non-current assets held for sale or the non-current assets in the disposal group, and the interest and other expenses of the liabilities in the disposal group held for sale continue to be recognized. If the non-current assets or disposal group no longer meets the requirements of the held for sale category, it will not continue to divide the held for sale category or remove the non-current assets from the disposal group held for sale and measure below: ① The book value before the held for sale category, the amount adjusted for depreciation, amortization or impairment assumed not to be recognized in the held for sale category; ② Recreable amount. (3) Termination of operation Termination of operations is a component of ownership that is separate and has been disposed of or classified by the Company under one of the following conditions: ① The component represents an independent main business or a separate main operating area; ② This component is part of a plan associated with the disposition of a separate principal business or a separate main business area of operation; ③ The component is a subsidiary acquired exclusively for resale. The Company shall separately report the profit and loss of terminated operation in the income statement, and the impairment loss and loss amount of terminated operation and loss shall be presented as the profit and loss of terminated operation. 101 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 14.Long-term equity investment The long-term equity investment mentioned in this part refers to the long-term equity investment that the Company has the control, joint control or significant influence on the invested unit. The Company has no control, joint control or significant influence of the invested unit as a financial assets accounting measured at fair value and included in the current profits and losses. If the changes is non-tradable, the Company may choose to designate it as financial assets accounting measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income. The accounting policies are detailed in Note IV and 10 "Financial Instruments". Joint control means the common control of the Company over an arrangement in accordance with the relevant agreement, and the relevant activities of the arrangement must be decided after the unanimous consent of the participants who share the control right. Significant impact means that the Company has the right to participate in the decision-making of the financial and operational policies of the investee, but is unable to control or jointly control the formulation of these policies together with other parties. (1) Determination of the investment cost For the long-term equity investment acquired by the enterprise merger under the same control, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment shall be based on the merger date of the share of the book value of the incorporated party in the consolidated financial statements of the final controlling party. The difference between the initial investment cost of the long- term equity investment and the cash paid, the transferred non-cash assets and the book value of the debts undertaken shall adjust the capital reserves; if the capital reserve is insufficient, the retained earnings shall be adjusted. If the issue of equity securities is taken as the merger consideration, the capital reserves shall be adjusted on the basis of the share of the shareholders' equity of the merged party in the consolidated financial statements of the final controlling party as the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment and the total face value of the issued shares as equity, and the difference between the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment and the total face value of the issued shares; if the capital reserve is insufficient to offset, the retained earnings shall be adjusted. If the equity of the merged party under the same control is acquired through multiple transactions step by step, and the enterprise merger under the same control, whether it is a "package transaction" respectively: for a "package transaction", each transaction shall be treated as a transaction that obtains control right. If it does not belong to the "package transaction", the capital reserves shall be adjusted on the merger date according to the sum of the book value of the equity of the shares of the final controller and the initial investment cost of the book value before the merger date; if the capital reserve is insufficient, the retained earnings shall be adjusted. The equity investment held by the equity method before the merger date or recognized as financial assets measured at fair value and whose changes are included in other comprehensive income shall not be accounted for for the time being. For the long-term equity investment acquired by the enterprise merger not under the same control, the merger cost shall be taken as the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment on the purchase date, and the merger cost includes the sum of the assets paid by the acquirer, the liabilities incurred or assumed, and the equity securities issued. If the equity of the acquirer is acquired step by step through multiple transactions and the enterprise merger is not under the same control, it shall be treated whether it belongs to the "package transaction" respectively: for the "package transaction", each transaction shall be treated as a transaction acquiring control. If it does not belong to the "package transaction", the sum of the book value of the equity investment of the original acquiree plus the new investment cost shall be the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment calculated according to the cost method. If the equity originally held is accounted by the equity method, the relevant other comprehensive income shall not be treated for the time being. The fee of audit, legal services, evaluation and consulting and other related management matters incurred by the consolidated 102 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. party or the acquirer shall be recorded into the current profits and losses at the time of occurrence. Equity investments other than long-term equity investments formed by business mergers are initially measured at cost, which depends on the manner in which long-term equity investments are acquired. It is determined in accordance with the actual cash purchase price paid by the Company, the fair value of the equity securities issued by the Company, the value agreed in the investment contract or agreement, the fair value or original book value of the assets exchanged in the non-monetary asset exchange transaction, and the fair value of the long-term equity investment itself. Fees, taxes and other necessary expenses directly related to the acquisition of long-term equity investments are also included in the cost of investment. For the additional investment that can exert a significant impact on the invested unit or exercise joint control but does not constitute control, the cost of long-term equity investment is the sum of the fair value of the original equity investment plus the cost of the new investment determined in accordance with Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments. (2) Follow-up measurement and profit and loss recognition methods The long-term equity investment with joint control (except the co-operator) or significant impact, shall be accounted by the equity method. In addition, the Company's financial statements use the cost method to account for the long-term equity investment that can be controlled by the invested unit. ① Long-term equity investment calculated by the cost method When the cost method is used, the long-term equity investment is priced at the cost of the initial investment, and the cost of the additional or withdrawn investment is adjusted for the long-term equity investment. In addition to the cash dividends or profits actually paid at the time of obtaining the investment or the cash dividends declared but not yet paid included in the consideration, the investment income of the current period shall be recognized in accordance with the cash dividends or profits declared by the invested unit. ② Long-term equity investment accounted for by the equity method When using the equity method, if the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment is greater than the fair value share of the investee's identifiable net assets when the investment is made, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment should not be adjusted; If the initial investment cost is less than the fair value share of the identifiable net assets of the investee, the difference should be included in the current profit or loss, and the cost of long-term equity investment should be adjusted at the same time. When using the equity method, the investment income and other comprehensive income shall be confirmed according to the share of the book value of the invested unit; the value and the book value of the long-term equity investment shall be adjusted according to the profit or cash dividend of the long-term equity investment and included in the capital reserve. When recognizing the share of the net profit and loss of the invested entity, the net profit of the invested entity shall be adjusted on the basis of the fair value of the identifiable assets of the invested entity at the time of obtaining the investment. If the accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by the invested entity are inconsistent with the Company, the financial statements of the invested entity shall be adjusted in accordance with the accounting policies and accounting periods of the Company, and the investment income and other comprehensive income shall be confirmed. For the transactions between the Company and the joint venture, if the assets invested or sold do not constitute business, the unrealized internal transaction gains and losses shall be offset by the Company, and the investment gains and losses shall be recognized. However, the unrealized internal transaction loss incurred by the Company and the invested entity belongs to the impairment loss of the transferred assets and shall not be offset. If the assets invested by the Company into a joint venture or an associate constitute a business, and the investor thus obtains long-term equity investment but does not acquire control, the fair value of the invested business 103 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. shall be taken as the initial investment cost of the new long-term equity investment, and the difference between the initial investment cost and the book value of the invested business shall be fully included in the current profit or loss. Where the assets sold by the Company to a joint venture or associate constitute a business, the difference between the consideration obtained and the carrying value of the business should be fully included in the current profit or loss. Where the assets purchased by the Company from associates and joint ventures constitute business, the accounting treatment shall be carried out in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 20 - Business Combination, and the gain or loss related to the transaction shall be fully recognized. When confirming the net loss incurred by the investee, the book value of the long-term equity investment and the other long- term equity that substantially constitute the net investment of the investee shall be written down to zero. In addition, if the Company has the obligation to bear additional losses to the investee, the estimated liabilities shall be recognized according to the expected obligations and included in the current investment losses. If the invested entity achieves net profit in the following period, the Company shall resume the recognized income share after the earnings share makes up for the unrecognized loss share. ③ Acquisition of minority equity At the time of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the capital reserves shall be adjusted due to the difference between the new long-term equity investment of the purchase of minority shares and the share of the net assets continuously calculated by the subsidiary since the purchase date (or merger date). If the capital reserves are insufficient to write down, the retained earnings shall be adjusted. ④ Disposal of long-term equity investments In the consolidated financial statements, the parent company shall partially dispose of the long-term equity investment of the subsidiary and the difference between the disposal price and the long-term equity investment of the subsidiary and the disposal of the relevant accounting policies described in Note IV, 6, "Judgment Standard for Control and Preparation Method of Consolidated Financial Statements" (2). For the disposal of long-term equity investment under other circumstances, the difference between the book value and the actual obtained price shall be recorded in the current profit and loss. For the long-term equity investment calculated by the equity method, if the remaining equity after disposal is still calculated by the equity method, the other comprehensive income parts originally included in the shareholders' equity shall be treated on the same basis as the direct disposal of the related assets or liabilities of the invested unit in the corresponding proportion. The owner's equity recognized due to the owner's equity other than the net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution shall be transferred to the profit and loss of the current period. If a long-term equity investment is accounted for by the cost method and the remaining equity is still accounted for by the cost method after disposal, the other comprehensive income recognized by the equity method or financial instrument recognition and measurement criteria before the acquisition of control of the investee shall be accounted for on the same basis as the direct disposal of the relevant assets or liabilities by the investee. And carry forward the current profit and loss pro rata; Changes in owners' equity other than net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution in the net assets of investee units recognized as a result of the equity method of accounting are carried forward to current profit and loss in proportion. If the Company loses control of the investee due to the disposal of part of the equity investment, when preparing individual financial statements, the remaining equity after disposal can exercise common control or exert significant influence on the investee, it shall be calculated according to the equity method, and when the remaining equity is regarded as self-acquired, it shall be adjusted by the equity method.

If there are signs of impairment, the recoverable amount shall be estimated and the impairment test shall be conducted. Goodwill, intangible assets with uncertain service life and intangible assets that have not yet reached the usable state shall be subject to impairment test every year, regardless of whether there are signs of impairment. If the result of the impairment test indicates that the recoverable amount of the asset is lower than its book value, the impairment provision shall be drawn according to the difference and included in the impairment loss. The recoverable amount is the higher value between the fair value of the asset minus the disposal expense and the present value of the estimated future cash flow of the asset. The fair value of the asset is determined according to the price of the sales agreement in fair trading; if there is no sales agreement but there is an active asset market, the fair value is determined according to the acquiree bid of the asset; if there is no sales agreement and asset active market, the fair value of the asset is estimated on the basis of the best- available information.

The present value of the estimated future cash flow of the asset shall be determined according to the amount of the estimated future cash flow generated during the continuous use of the asset and the final disposal at an appropriate discount rate. The asset impairment provision is calculated and confirmed on the basis of a single asset. If it is difficult to estimate the recoverable amount of a single asset, the recoverable amount of the asset group shall be determined by the asset group to which the asset belongs. Asset groups are the minimum portfolio that can independently generate cash inflows. In the case of impairment test of goodwill, the carrying value of goodwill is allocated to the relevant asset group reasonably from the date of purchase; if it is difficult to allocate to the relevant asset group, it shall be allocated to the relevant asset group portfolio. The relevant asset group or asset group portfolio is an asset group or asset portfolio that can benefit from the synergies of business consolidation and is not greater than the reporting division determined by the Company. When the impairment test is conducted on the relevant asset group or asset group portfolio containing goodwill, if there are signs of impairment in the asset group or asset group portfolio related to goodwill, the impairment test shall be conducted on the asset group or asset group portfolio excluding goodwill to calculate the recoverable amount and confirm the corresponding 109 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. impairment loss. Then conduct impairment tests on the asset group or portfolio of asset groups containing goodwill, Compare its carrying value to the recoverable amount, If the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying value, The amount of impairment loss is first offset against the carrying value of goodwill in the asset group or portfolio, According to the proportion of the book value of other assets except goodwill in the asset group or asset group portfolio, offset the book value of other assets, Provided that the book value of each asset after deduction shall not be lower than the fair value of the asset minus the net amount (if certain) and the present value of the estimated future cash flow of the asset (if certain), And not lower than zero. Once the impairment loss of the above assets is recognized, the value shall not be recovered in the later period. 21.Long-term deferred expenses Long-term deferred expenses are the expenses incurred by the Company that shall be borne by the current and subsequent period for more than one year (excluding one year). Long-term deferred expenses are equally amortized during the benefit period. If the long-term deferred expenses cannot benefit the later accounting period, the unamortized surplus value will be transferred to the current profit and loss. Long-term deferred expenses are amortized on a straight-line basis over the following period: Name Amortization period Renovation costs 2-5 years 22.Contract liabilities Contract liabilities reflect the obligation to transfer goods to the customer for the consideration received or receivable. If the customer has paid the contract consideration or has obtained the right to receive the contract consideration unconditionally before the transfer to the customer, the contract liabilities shall be recognized according to the amount received or receivable when the actual payment and the amount due.

The estimated liabilities shall be initially measured at the best estimate of the expenditures required to meet the relevant current obligations. 25.Share payment (1) Accounting treatment method of share payment Share payment is a transaction that grants the equity instruments or assumes the liabilities determined based on the equity instruments for the purpose of obtaining the services provided by the employee or other parties. Share payment is divided into share payment settled by equity and share payment settled in cash. ① Share payments settled by equity Share payment for equity settlement of services provided by the employee, should be measured at the fair value of the employee equity instrument on the grant date. The amount of the fair value shall be calculated in the relevant costs or expenses on the basis of the best estimate of the waiting period, including the relevant costs or expenses on the grant date and the capital reserve shall be increased accordingly. On each balance sheet date during the waiting period, the Company makes the best estimate and corrects the estimated number of feasible equity instruments based on the latest subsequent information, including changes in the number of feasible employees. The impact of the above estimate shall be included in the relevant costs or expenses of the current period, and the capital reserves shall be adjusted accordingly. In exchange for the equity settlement of the fair value of the service can be measured reliably, according to the fair value of the service in the date, if the fair value of the other services cannot be measured reliably, but the fair value of the equity instrument can be measured reliably, according to the fair value of the date of the service, included in the relevant costs or expenses, and increase the shareholders' equity accordingly. ② Payment in shares settled in cash Share payments settled in cash are measured at the fair value of the liabilities determined on the basis of shares or other equity instruments undertaken by the Company. If the right is available immediately after the grant, increase the liabilities on the grant date and the amount of the right on the basis of the best estimate on the basis of the fair value of the liabilities. On each balance sheet date and settlement date before the settlement of relevant liabilities, the fair value of the liabilities shall be measured and the changes shall be included in the current profit and loss. (2) Modify or terminate the relevant accounting treatment of the share payment plan When the Company changes the share payment plan, if the modification increases the fair value of the granted equity instrument, 112 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. the increase in the acquired services shall be recognized according to the increase in the fair value of the equity instrument. The increase in the fair value of the equity instrument is the difference between the fair value of the equity instrument on the date of amendment before and after the amendment. If the amendment reduces the total fair value of share payment or adopts any other way unfavorable to the employee, the accounting for the services obtained shall be deemed to have never occurred unless the Company cancels part or all of the granted equity instruments. During the waiting period, if the granted equity instrument is cancelled, the Company will treat the cancellation of the granted equity instrument as an accelerated exercise of right, immediately record the amount recognized during the remaining waiting period into the current profit and loss, and recognize the capital reserves. If the employee or other party can choose to meet the non-viable conditions but not within the waiting period, the company will cancel them as the interest granting instrument.

If the financial instruments issued by the Company are compound financial instruments, they shall be recognized as a liability according to the fair value of the liability component, and shall be recognized as "other equity instruments" according to the 113 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. amount actually received after deducting the fair value of the liability component. The transaction costs incurred in the issuance of compound financial instruments shall be apportioned between the liability components and the equity component according to their respective proportion to the total issuance price. (2) Accounting methods for perpetual debt and preferred shares, etc Financial instruments such as perpetual debt or preferred shares, or financial instruments classified as financial liabilities, whose related interest, dividends (or dividends), gains or losses, and gains or losses arising from redemption or refinancing, are included in the current profit and loss, except for the borrowing expenses meeting the capitalization conditions (see Note IV and 18 "borrowing expenses").

The Company does not recognize the change in the fair value of the equity instruments. 27.Revenue Accounting policies used for revenue recognition and measurement (1) Revenue recognition principle When the contract with the customer meets both of the following conditions, revenue is recognized when the customer obtains control of the relevant goods: ① The parties have approved the contract and undertake to perform their respective obligations; ② The contract specifies the rights and obligations of the parties related to the transfer of the goods or services provided; ③ The contract has a clear payment clause related to the transferred goods; ④ The contract has commercial substance, that is, the performance of the contract will change the risk, time distribution or amount of the Company's future cash flow; ⑤ A consideration entitled to for the transfer of goods to a customer is likely to be recovered. Assess the contract on the start date of the contract, identify the individual performance obligations contained in the contract, and share the transaction price to each individual performance obligation in relative proportion to the individual selling price of the goods promised by each individual performance obligation. The influence of variable consideration, significant financing components existing in the contract, non-cash consideration, payable customer consideration and other factors are considered in determining the transaction price. Then determine whether the individual performance obligation should be performed within a certain period or at a certain point, and recognize the income respectively when performing each individual performance obligation. If one of the following conditions is met, it shall be performed within a certain period; otherwise, or at a certain point: 1) The customer obtains and consumes the economic benefits brought by the enterprise's performance at the same time; 2) Customers can control the goods under construction during the performance process of the enterprise; 3) The commodities produced by the enterprise during the performance of the contract have irreplaceable purposes, and the enterprise has the right to collect money for the accumulated performance that has been completed during the whole contract 114 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. period. For the performance obligations performed within a certain period of time, the revenue shall be recognized according to the performance progress during that period. The performance progress shall be determined by the input method or the output method according to the nature of the transferred goods. If the performance progress cannot be reasonably determined and the cost incurred is expected to be compensated, the income shall be recognized according to the amount of the cost incurred until the performance progress can be reasonably determined. If one of the above conditions is not met, the revenue will be apportioned to the transaction price of the individual performance obligation at the point when the customer obtains control of the relevant goods. When determining whether the customer has acquired control of the commodity: <1> The enterprise has the right to current payment for the goods, that is, the customer has the obligation of current payment for the goods; <2> The enterprise has transferred the legal ownership of the commodity to the customer, that is, the customer has the legal ownership of the commodity; <3> The enterprise has transferred the product to the customer, that is, the customer has the physical possession of the commodity; <4> The enterprise has transferred the main risks and remuneration in the ownership of the commodity to the customer, that is, the customer has acquired the main risks and remuneration in the ownership of the commodity; <5> The customer has accepted the item; <6> Other indications that the customer has acquired control of the goods.

Most of the Company’s long-line fishing utensil and fishing goods will be transported back to China for sale. Sales contracts and settlement contracts will be used as the basis. The Company recognizes the change of ownership based on the date of settlement contracts and then recognizes revenue accordingly. Processing of aquatic products for domestic sale by the Company: Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic (Yantai) Food Co., Ltd. issues shipment confirmations according to faxed or email orders from domestic clients.

After the warehouse warrants are signed by the warehouse manager and confirmed by clients, the Company will recognize revenue by calculating the storage fees based on the actual number of storage days. 115 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 28.Contract acquisition cost and contract performance cost (1) Method of determining the amount of assets related to the contract cost The assets related to the contract costs include the contract acquisition costs and the contract performance costs. Contract acquisition cost, that is, if the incremental cost incurred in the contract acquisition is expected to be recovered, it is recognized as an asset as the cost of contract acquisition. Incremental cost refers to the cost that will not occur without obtaining a contract (such as sales commission, etc.). If the amortization period of the asset does not exceed one year, it may be recorded into the current profit and loss at the time of occurrence. Other expenses incurred in the Company to obtain the Contract in addition to the incremental cost expected to be recovered (e. g. travel expenses, bid expenses, bid expenses, and related expenses incurred in preparing the bid materials) shall be recorded in the current profits and losses upon occurrence, unless these expenses are clearly borne by the customer. Contract performance cost, that is, the cost incurred in the performance of the contract, which does not fall within the scope of other accounting standards for enterprises other than the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.14-Revenue (2017 Revision) and meets the following conditions, is recognized as the contract performance cost as an asset: ① This cost is directly related to a current or expected acquired contract, including direct labor, direct materials, manufacturing costs (or similar costs), costs clearly borne by the Customer, and other costs incurred only because of the Contract; ② This cost increases the future resources of the enterprise to fulfill its performance obligations; ③ This cost is expected to be recoverable. (2) Amortization of assets related to the contract costs Assets related to the contract cost are amortized on the same basis as the recognition of the asset and recorded into the current profit and loss. (3) Impairment of assets relating to the contract costs When determining the impairment of assets related to the contract cost, firstly determine the impairment loss of other assets recognized in accordance with other relevant business accounting standards; Then, if the book value is higher than the difference of Item ① minus Item ②, the excess part shall be deducted and recognized as the asset impairment loss: ① The remaining consideration expected to obtain due to the transfer of the goods related to the asset; ② Estimated estimated for the transfer of the related goods. During the period before the impairment factors after changes, make the enterprise after the item ① minus the ② of the difference higher than the asset book value, back to the original asset impairment provision, and included in the current profits and losses, but the book value of the assets should not exceed the assumed not provision for impairment of the assets in the book value. 29.Governmental subsidy (1) A lease is a contract in which the Company has transferred or acquired the right to control one or more use of identified assets for a certain period in exchange for or pay consideration. On the commencement date of a contract, the Company evaluates whether the contract is a lease or contains a lease. (2) Judgment basis of government subsidies and accounting treatment methods related to assets The government subsidies related to assets refers to the government subsidies obtained by the Company for purchase and 116 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. construction or otherwise forming long-term assets. Government subsidies related to assets shall be recognized as deferred income. Where government subsidies related to assets are recognized as deferred income, they shall be recorded into profits and losses in reasonable and systematic ways within the service life of the relevant assets. The government subsidies measured in accordance with the nominal amount shall be directly recorded into the current profit and loss. If the relevant assets are sold, transferred, scrapped or damaged before the end of their service life, the undistributed balance of the relevant deferred income shall be transferred into the profit and loss of the current period of asset disposal. The government subsidies related to the daily activities of the Company shall be included in other profits according to the essence of the economic business. The government subsidies unrelated to the daily activities of the Company shall be included in the non-operating income and expenditure. (3) The judgment basis and accounting treatment method of government subsidies related to income Revenue-related government subsidies refer to government subsidies other than those related to assets. For the government subsidies of comprehensive projects, the Company needs to be decomposed into asset-related parts and earnings-related parts for accounting treatment separately; if it is difficult to distinguish, it shall be classified as government subsidies related to income. If government subsidies related to earnings are used to compensate the related expenses or losses of the enterprise in the future period, they shall be recognized as deferred income and included in the current profits and losses in the related costs or losses in the period to compensate the related expenses or losses incurred by the enterprise, which shall be directly recorded in the current profits and losses. The government subsidies related to the daily activities of the Company shall be included in other profits according to the essence of the economic business. The government subsidies unrelated to the daily activities of the Company shall be included in the non-operating income and expenditure. (4) The time of recognition of government subsidies Where the government subsidies are monetary assets, they shall be measured at the amount received. The government subsidy, measured according to the receivable amount, shall be confirmed at the end of the period by meeting the relevant conditions of the financial support policy, if the government subsidy is non-monetary assets, the government subsidy shall be confirmed according to the ownership risk and remuneration transfer of the non-monetary assets. Where non-monetary assets shall be measured at fair value; if the fair value cannot be obtained reliably, they shall be measured at nominal amount. When the recognized government subsidies need to be returned, if there is a balance of relevant deferred income, the book balance of relevant deferred income shall be written down, and the excess part shall be included into the current profit and loss; if there is no relevant deferred income, it shall be directly recorded in the current profit and loss. 30.Deferred tax assets/deferred tax liabilities Income tax is accounted by the balance sheet debt method. On the balance sheet date, analyze and compare the book value of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. If there is a difference between the two, recognize the deferred income tax assets, deferred income tax liabilities and the corresponding deferred income tax expenses (or earnings). On the basis of the calculation and determination of the current income tax (i. e., income tax payable for the current period) and deferred income tax expenses (or income), the sum of the two is recognized as the income tax expenses (or income) in the income statement, but excluding the income tax impact of transactions or matters directly included in the owner's equity. Review the book value of deferred income tax assets. If it is likely that insufficient taxable income amount may be obtained to 117 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. offset the benefits of the deferred income tax assets, the book value of the deferred income tax assets shall be written down. 31.Lease A lease is a contract in which the Company has transferred or acquired the right to control one or more use of identified assets for a certain period in exchange for or pay consideration. On the commencement date of a contract, the Company evaluates whether the contract is a lease or contains a lease. (1) The Company acts as lessee The categories of leased assets of the Company are mainly office buildings and cold storage. ① Initial measurement On the beginning date of the lease term, the Company shall recognize the right to use the lease assets as the use right assets during the lease term, and recognize the present value of the outstanding lease payment as lease liabilities, except for short-term lease and low-value asset lease. When calculating the present value of the lease payment, the Company uses the lease interest rate as the discount rate; if the lease interest rate cannot be determined, the lessee incremental borrowing rate shall be used as the discount rate. ② Follow-up measurement If the company can reasonably determine the ownership of the leased assets at the time of the expiration of the lease term, the depreciation shall be withdrawn within the remaining useful life of the leased assets. If it is impossible to reasonably determine that the ownership of the lease asset can be acquired at the expiration of the lease term, the depreciation shall be deducted within the shorter period of the lease term and the remaining service life of the leased asset. See Note Ⅳ and 20 "Long-term asset impairment" for the impairment test method and impairment provision method of the use assets. For the lease liabilities, the Company shall calculate the interest expenses for each period during the lease term at the fixed periodic interest rate, which is included in the current profit and loss or the relevant asset costs. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of lease liabilities are recorded into current profit and loss or related asset costs upon actual occurrence. After the start of the lease term, when the substantial fixed payment changes, the expected payable amount changes, the index or ratio used to determine the lease payment changes, the purchase option, the renewal option, or the actual exercise situation changes, the lease payment, and adjust the book value of the use assets accordingly. If the book value of the use right assets has been reduced to zero, but the lease liabilities still need to be further reduced, the remaining amount shall be included in the current profit and loss. ③ Short-term lease and low-value asset leasing For short-term lease (in the lease start day lease not more than 12 months) and low value asset lease, the company to simplify processing method, do not confirm the use of assets and lease liabilities, and during the lease period according to the line method or other system reasonable lease payments into the relevant asset cost or current profit and loss. ④ Lease obligation On the beginning date of the lease term, the Company recognizes the present value of the outstanding lease payment as a lease 118 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. liability. When calculating the present value of the lease payment, the lease interest rate shall be used as the discount rate. If the interest rate of the lease cannot be determined, the company's incremental borrowing rate shall be used as the discount rate. The difference between the lease payment and its present value shall be regarded as the unidentified financing fee, and the interest expense shall be recognized during the lease period at the discount rate of the present value of the lease payment and included in the current profit and loss. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of lease liabilities shall be recorded into the current profit and loss upon actual occurrence. After the commencement of the lease term, when the substantially fixed payment amount changes, the expected payable amount changes, the index or ratio of the lease payment amount changes, the result of the assessment or the change of the lease payment amount, if the book value of the asset has been reduced to zero, but the lease liabilities still need to be further reduced, the remaining amount shall be included in the current profit and loss. (2) The Company acts as lessor On the commencement date of the lease, the Company divides the lease into financial lease and operating lease based on the substance of the transaction. A finance lease is a lease that substantially transfers almost all of the risks and rewards associated with the ownership of the leased assets. Operating lease refers to a lease other than a financial lease. ① Operating lease The Company adopts the straight-line method to confirm the lease collection amount of the operating lease as the rental income of each period during the lease term. Variable lease payments related to the operating lease and not included in the lease collection amount shall be included in the current profit and loss upon actual occurrence. ② The Company’s revenue applicable to the lease standards The Company’s revenue from vessel leases: Shandong Zhonglu Aquaculture Shipping Co., Ltd. and Habitat International Corporation lease their vessels by time charter. The Company leases vessels equipped with operating staff to others for certain periods. During the lease term, the ships are subject to the lessees’ dispatch. Regardless of whether they run any business using the vessels, the Company charges lease fees to them and bears any fixed costs incurred (such as staff salaries, maintenance costs, etc.). During the lease term, the fees are settled on a regular basis between the Company and its clients. The Company recognizes revenue based on the number of lease days as agreed upon with the clients. The Company’s property and other lease revenue: After entering into a lease contract with a client, the Company charges lease fees based on the lease area and the contractual unit price to the lessee and bears any fixed costs (such as staff salaries, maintenance costs, etc.). During the lease term, the fees are settled on a regular basis between the Company and the client. The Company recognizes revenue based on the lease period. 32.Other Important Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimations (1) Production safety expenditures In November 2022, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Emergency Management issued the Management Measures for the Withdrawal and Utilization of Production Safety Expenditures in Enterprise (CZ [2022] No. 136), and it was implemented on, and as of, the date of issue. At the same time, the Management Measures for the Withdrawal and Utilization of Production Safety Expenditures in Enterprises (CQ [2012] No. 16) was superseded. (2) Debt restructuring When the Company participates in the debt restructuring as a creditor, and pays off the debt with assets or turns the debt into equity instruments for debt restructuring, it shall be confirmed when the relevant assets meet its definition and confirmation 119 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. conditions. If the debt-offset assets are financial assets, see Note IV, 10 and financial instruments; if the debt-offset assets are non-financial assets, the initial measured amount is the sum of the fair value of the waived claims and other directly attributable costs. The difference between the fair value of the abandoned claim and the book value shall be included in the current profit and loss. If the debt is restructured by means of modifying other terms, the Company shall, according to the substantive modification of the contract, judge whether the original creditor's right to terminate the confirmation, and confirm a new creditor's right according to the revised terms, or recalculate the book balance of the creditor's right. When the company participates in debt restructuring, debt restructuring with assets or converting debt into equity instruments, terminate the relevant assets and the liquidated liabilities meet the conditions for termination of confirmation, and measure the fair value of the equity instruments (according to the fair value of the liquidated debt when the fair value cannot be estimated reliably). The difference between the book value of the paid debts and the book value of the transferred assets (or the recognized amount of the equity instruments) shall be recorded in the current profit and loss. If the debt is restructured by modifying other terms, the Company shall, according to the substantive modification of the contract, confirm a new debt in accordance with the revised terms, or recalculate the book balance of the debt. For the exemption of the debt restructuring, the recognition can only be terminated if the Company no longer have the current obligation to repay the debt restructuring. 33.Changes in significant accounting policies and accounting estimates (1) Important accounting policy changes Since 2023, the Company has implemented the provisions of the Interpretation of Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.16 issued by the Ministry of Finance, "The deferred income tax related to assets and liabilities arising from single transactions does not apply to the accounting treatment of initial recognition exemption" he Company shall, starting from 2023, implement the accounting treatment of the initial recognition exemption of deferred income tax on the assets and liabilities arising from individual transactions issued by the Ministry of Finance. For the lease liabilities and use right assets recognized at the beginning of the earliest period of the first presentation of the financial statements, subject to the proposed provisions, and the provisions of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises and other relevant financial statements items during the earliest period. This change in the accounting policy has no impact on the company's financial statements. 34.Significant accounting judgments and estimates In the process of applying accounting policies, the company, due to the internal uncertainty of business activities, needs to judge, estimate and assume the book value of the statement items that cannot be accurately measured. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are based on the past history of the company's management and on considering other relevant factors. These judgments, estimates and assumptions affect the reported amount of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities on the balance sheet date. However, the actual results of the uncertainty of these estimates may differ from the current estimates of the Company's management, which in turn results in a significant adjustment of the carrying amount of the assets or liabilities affected in the future. The Company shall periodically review the aforementioned judgments, estimates and assumptions on the basis of the change, the accounting estimates shall be confirmed in the current period; and the current period, the impact shall be confirmed in the current period and the future period. On the balance sheet date, the Company shall judge, estimate and assume the amount of the financial statement as follows: (1) Revenue recognition As stated in Note IV, 27, "revenue", the following significant accounting judgments and estimates are involved in terms of 120 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. revenue recognition: Estimating the recovery of the consideration entitled to for the transfer of goods to the Customer: Enterprises mainly rely on past experience and work to make judgments, these major judgments and estimated changes may have an impact on the operating income, operating costs, and profit and loss during the period of the change, and may constitute a significant impact. (2) Significant accounting judgments and estimates related to leasing ① Identification of leases When identifying whether a contract is a lease or includes a lease, the Company needs to evaluate whether an identified asset exists, and the Client controls the right to use the asset for a certain period. In the appraisal, the nature of the asset, the material replacement right, and whether the client is entitled to almost all the financial benefits arising from using the asset during the period and to dominate the use of the asset are considered. ② Classification of leases When the Company, as a lessor, classifies the lease into operating lease and financial lease. In the classification, the management needs to make an analysis and judgment on whether all the risks and rewards related to the ownership of the leased assets have been substantially transferred to the lessee. ③ Lease obligation When the Company is the lessee, the lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments outstanding on the beginning date of the lease term. When measuring the present value of the lease payment, the Company estimates the discount rate used and the lease term of the lease contract with a renewal option or termination option. In evaluating the lease term, the Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances related to the economic benefits of exercising the option, including the expected changes in the facts and circumstances between the beginning of the lease term and the exercise date of the option. Different judgments and estimates may affect the recognition of lease liabilities and tenure assets, and will affect the profits and losses of the subsequent period. (3) Impairment of financial instruments The Company uses the expected credit loss model to evaluate the impairment of financial instruments, and application of the expected credit loss model requires the company to make significant judgments and estimates, and to consider all reasonable and grounded information, including forward-looking information. When making such judgments and estimates, the Company deduces the expected changes in the debtor's credit risk based on the historical repayment data combined with economic policies, macroeconomic indicators, industry risks and other factors. (4) Reserve for inventory depreciation According to the inventory accounting policy, the company measures the lower cost and the net realizable value, and sets aside the inventory depreciation provision for the cost that is higher than the net realizable value and the old and unsalable inventory. The impairment of inventory to net realizable value is based on the sale of inventory and its net realizable value. The appraisal of inventory impairment requires the management to make a judgment and estimate on the basis of obtaining conclusive evidence and considering the purpose of holding the inventory and the impact of matters after the balance sheet date. The difference between the actual result and the original estimate will affect the withdrawal or reversal of the book value of the inventory and the inventory depreciation provision during the estimated change period. 121 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. (5) Fair value of the financial instruments For financial instruments that do not have an active trading market, the Company determines its fair value through various valuation methods. These valuation methods include discounted cash flow model analysis, etc. At the valuation, the Company estimates the future cash flow, credit risk, market volatility and correlation, and selects the appropriate discount rate. These relevant assumptions are uncertain, and their changes can have an impact on the fair value of the financial instruments. (6) Long-term asset impairment provision On the balance sheet date, the Company judged the possible impairment of non-current assets except the financial assets. For the intangible assets with uncertain service life, in addition to the annual impairment test, the impairment test is also conducted when there are signs of impairment. Other non-current assets other than financial assets shall be tested for impairment when there is evidence that their book amount is not recoverable. When the book value of an asset or asset group is higher than the recoverable amount, that is, the net value minus the disposal expense and the present value of the expected future cash flow, the impairment has occurred. The net fair value minus the disposal expense is determined by referring to the sales agreement price of a similar asset in fair trading or the observable market price, minus the incremental cost that may be directly attributable to the disposal of the asset. When predicting the present value of future cash flows, it is necessary to make significant judgments on the output, selling price, related operating costs and the discount rate used in calculating the present value. In estimating the recoverable amount, the Company will use all relevant information available, including projections of production, selling prices and associated operating costs based on reasonable and supportive assumptions. (7) Depreciation and amortization After considering the residual value of the investment real estate, fixed assets and intangible assets, the Company shall make depreciation and amortization according to the straight-line method. The Company periodically reviews the service life to determine the amount of depreciation and amortization expense that will be included in each reporting period. The service life is determined by the Company based on past experience with similar assets and combined with expected technical updates. If previous estimates have changed significantly, depreciation and amortization charges will be adjusted in the future period. (8) Deferred income tax assets Within the limits of potentially sufficient taxable profits to offset losses, the Company recognizes deferred income tax assets for all unused tax losses. This requires the management of the company to use a lot of judgment to estimate the time and amount of future taxable profits, and combine the tax planning strategy to determine the amount of deferred income tax assets that should be recognized. (9) Income tax In the normal business activities of the company, there are some uncertainties in the final tax treatment and calculation of some transactions. Whether some items can be itemized before tax requires the examination and approval of the competent tax authorities. If the final determination of these tax matters varies from the original estimated amount, the difference will affect the current income tax and deferred income tax during the final determination period. (10) Internal retirement benefits and supplementary retirement benefits The amount of the company's internal retirement benefits and supplementary retirement benefits expenses and liabilities is 122 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. determined according to various assumptions. These assumptions include the discount rate, the average growth rate of medical expenses, the growth rate of subsidies for retired and retired personnel, and other factors. Differences in actual results and assumptions will be immediately recognized and charged for the current year. Although the management believes that reasonable assumptions have been adopted, the change in the actual experience value and the assumptions will still affect the expenses and liabilities of the Company's internal retirement benefits and supplementary retirement benefits. 35.Other major accounting policies, accounting estimates and methods of preparing financial statements ① This component can generate income and incurred expenses in daily activities; ② The management of the enterprise can regularly evaluate the operating results of this component, so as ③ The enterprise can obtain the financial position, operating results and cash flow of the component.

Related risks of financial instruments 1. The risk of the financial instruments The main financial instruments of the Company include receivables, other receivables, payables and other payables, etc. For details of various financial instruments, see six relevant items in this Note. The goal of the company engaged in risk management is to achieve an appropriate balance between risk and income, reduce the negative impact of risk on the company's business performance to a minimum level, and maximize the interests of shareholders and other equity investors. Based on this risk management objective, the basic strategy of the company's risk management is to determine and analyze various risks faced by the company, establish appropriate risk tolerance bottom line and conduct risk management, and timely and reliably supervise various risks, and control the risks within a limited range. (1) Credit risk If the financial instrument or the other party involved in the financial loss caused to the Company, it is a credit risk. Credit risk mainly comes from customer payment receivable. The carrying value of accounts receivable and notes receivable and other receivables is the maximum credit risk of the Company for financial assets. (2) Market risk The market risk of financial instruments refers to the risk that the fair value of financial instruments or the future cash flow fluctuates due to the market price changes, including the exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and other price risks. The Company uses sensitivity analysis technology to analyze the possible impact of reasonable and possible changes of market risk-related variables on the current profit and loss or shareholders' equity. Since any risk variable rarely changes in isolation and the correlation between variables will have a significant effect on the final amount of impact of a change in a risk variable, the following is made assuming that the change of each variable is independent. ① Exchange rate risk Exchange rate risk refers to the risk that the fair value of financial instruments or the future cash flow fluctuates due to changes in the foreign exchange rate. The foreign exchange risks faced by the Company mainly come from the financial assets denominated in US dollars, and the amount of foreign currency financial assets converted into RMB is listed as described in item Ⅵ and 54 foreign currency monetary items. 150 Full text of the annual report of 2023, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. ② Interest rate risk Interest rate risk refers to the risk that the fair value of financial instruments or the future cash flow fluctuates due to changes in the market interest rate. The interest rate risks faced by the Company mainly come from long-term bank loans. The company's loans are floating interest rate, and there is the risk of change in the RMB benchmark interest rate. (3) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company meets its obligations related to financial liabilities. Under the case of normal and tight funds, the Company ensures that there is sufficient liquidity to fulfill the maturing debts, and conducts financing consultations with financial institutions to maintain a certain level of standby credit line to reduce liquidity risk. 2.
