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: 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 Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, and Fujian. 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 25 long range fishing boats, including 7 sets of large tuna seiners, 14 large ultra-low temperature tuna longliners, 2 medium-sized trawlers, and 2 squid fishing boats, which were operated in the Indian Ocean, the Atlantic, and the Pacific, respectively. (1) In terms of longline fishing, the Company’s boats mainly worked in the Indian Ocean. In 2022, the boats did not enter Somalian fisheries. Hence, fish production decreased substantially compared with previous years. To ensure the accomplishment of the annual target, the 14 boats increased production by various means, including distributed operations and fishery temperature analysis, but there was no major breakthrough in the production. (2) In terms of seining, the Company’s boats mainly worked in the Atlantic. As the fishing-off season was shorter than the previous year and there was no delay in the dock repair of boats, the boats went fishing starting in mid-March 2022. Hence, production increased to a certain extent. (3) The two squid fishing boats arrived at the fisheries in April 2022 and achieved good production and operating results. The expected investment target was reached. (4) The trawlers in Ghana were undergoing replacement and thus did not carry out production. 2. Cold storage transportation During the Reporting Period, the Company’s 7 international cold storage transportation vessels were engaged in operating services with a reach to major ports around the world. They carried out long range transportation of aquatic products, meat, poultry, vegetables, and fruits. To accomplish all the economic targets, the Company took a combination of measures, including: (1) continuously strengthening policy development to reinforce the management foundation; (2) based on the Asia Pacific special cold storage freight market, striving to increase market shares, strictly controlling costs, and strengthening the equipment maintenance of the vessels to ensure the sailing rate; (3) keeping a close watch on the changes in exchange rates and timely settling foreign exchange to reduce the exchange rate risk. 3. Cold storage processing and trade During the Reporting Period, the Company’s cold storage processing and trade segments were affected by the economic downturn. Hence, the Company focused on controlling inventory and stabilizing its market share. More than 20 tuna species are processed in this segment, including yellowfin tuna, bluefin tuna, longfin tuna, swordfin tuna, redfin tuna, and blackfin tuna. They are processed into tuna slices, chops, and plates. The products are mostly exported to Japan, the United States, Russia, the European Union, South Korea, and Israel. The Company has passed the HACCP, EU, BRC, MSC, and SEDEX certifications. In the domestic market, the Company has built a sales network where WeChat commerce, e-commerce, supermarkets, and distributed warehouses integrate with each other to form a system. It is dedicated to providing the Chinese people with dark blue, green, healthy, and perfect tuna delicacies. The Company’s share of the domestic market is growing year by year. Business model: The Company conducts business in a centralized and diversified manner. Market position: China’s top five oceanic fishery companies, 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. The Company’s tuna seining project in the Atlantic can maintain the steady development of its tuna seining under the protection of ICCAT's strict rules. (4) Cold storage transportation is an important part of the Company’s main businesses. The Company’s current cold storage transportation fleet is among the industry’s top in the Southeastern transportation market, in terms of the number of vessels, total tonnage, and profitability. (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 and Indian Oceans, 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. In terms of tuna seining, the two (sets of) newly built large seiners will sail to central and western Pacific to expand seining production on the basis of the existing seven (sets of) seiners and increase profit growth points. In terms of longline fishing, the Company has strong support from Somalia and Tanzania for maintaining high yields. Since four years ago, the Company’s longliners have reentered the Tanzanian cooperative area for fishing production. So far, the production conditions have turned out to be good, and the fish production has increased markedly. At the same time, the Company’s negotiation on the common of piscary to Somalia has ended with success. After paying the cooperation fees, the Company will be allowed to enter the area to fish. According to the production plan, after the common of piscary in Tanzania ends, the Company will shift to the Somalian cooperation area. The Company will make good use of the piscary advantage to stabilize production and increase incomes. In terms of seiners, the Company will continue to invest in the two seiners. As of the end of 2022, 80% of the seiner building had been completed. In terms of trawling, the Company plans to build two new fishing vessels that have advanced equipment, are suitable for modern marine fishing, and conform to the country’s industrial policies to replace the two existing old trawlers operating in Ghana. 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 develop and extend its cold storage processing and trading services. First, the Company will seek development through innovation. Centered around the featured tuna industry, the Company will continuously improve its product mix, competitiveness and anti-risk capabilities. Second, the Company will further increase the scale of the backhaul, purchase, processing, and sales of self-caught tuna to vigorously develop domestic and international markets. Third, while maintaining its existing businesses, the Company will step up efforts to develop new products, deep-processed products, and other high-value-added products to foster new profit growth points. Fourth, the Company will strengthen the innovation and implementation of production processes and improve production automation to improve production efficiency, save production costs, and enhance production effectiveness. Fifth, the Company will reinforce brand building and promotion and maintain the leading position of its products in China. (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 2023 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) expedite the abandonment of backward capacity and build two new fishing vessels that have advanced equipment, are suitable for modern marine fishing, and conform to the country’s industrial policies to replace the two old trawlers in the sea area of Ghana; 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.

It will precisely target the domestic market, develop cooked products that accommodate consumers’ needs, and expand domestic sales channels. 3. Risk of exchange risk fluctuations: Exchange rates fluctuate greatly due to the economic downturn and the war between Russia and Ukraine. Countermeasures: The Company will keep a close watch on the exchange rate changes and settle exchanges promptly. Meanwhile, the Company will strengthen cooperation with financial institutions in the management of exchange rate risk, regulate the balance of foreign- currency assets to the maximum extent possible, and use hedging instruments to mitigate exchange risk when necessary. 4. Risk of safety accidents. Countermeasures: The Company will uphold the production safety policies, implement production safety measures, conduct safety education regularly, prevent major safety accidents, and make tangible efforts to place production safety as a top priority.

If the future events that may affect the merger cost are stipulated in the combination contract or agreement, and if it is estimated that the future events are likely to occur and the amount of influence on the merger cost can be measured reliably on the purchase date, it will be included in the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment. (b) At the acquisition date, the acquired assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree that meet the recognition criteria are measured at their fair value. If investment cost of long-term equity investment is more than the difference in the share of fair value of identifiable net assets acquired by the purchaser in the merger, it shall be recognized as goodwill. If investment cost of long-term equity investment is less than the difference in the share of fair value of identifiable net assets acquired by the purchaser in the merger, it shall be handled in the following way: a. Review the measurement of the fair value of all identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired purchaser and the combined cost; b. If the merger cost is still less than the fair value share of identifiable net assets acquired during the merger after review, the difference shall be recorded into profit or loss for the current period entirely. 4.6 Preparation of consolidated financial statements The consolidated scope of the consolidated financial statements is determined on a control basis. Control refers to the investor has the power of the investee, through participation in the investee related activities and enjoy variable returns, and have the ability to use the power of the investee influence its return amount.

When a company becomes a party to a financial instrument contract, the related financial asset or financial liability is recognized. 4.10.1 Financial assets 4.10.1.1 Classification and initial measurement According to the business model of financial assets management and contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets, the company divides financial assets into: a) Financial assets measured at amortized cost; b) Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income; 80 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. c) Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. The Company measures financial instruments at fair value upon their initial recognition. The related transaction fees for the financial assets subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss are charged in profit or loss directly. The related transaction fees for other financial assets are included in their initial costs. The Company measures the accounts receivable and notes receivable deriving from selling goods or providing services at their transaction price if the accounts receivable and notes receivable do not contain a significant financing component or the Company applies the practical expedient not considering the significant financing component. (a) Debt instruments Debt instruments held by the company refer to those instruments that conform to the definition of financial liabilities from the perspective of the issuer and are measured in the following three ways: a) Measured at amortized cost: The Company classifies a financial asset as subsequently measured at amortized cost that meets both of the following conditions: The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows; The contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The company recognizes interest income on such financial assets in accordance with the effective interest rate method. Such financial assets mainly include cash at bank and on hand, notes receivable and accounts receivable, contract assets, other receivables, debt investments, lease receivables and long-term receivables, etc. The company lists the debt investments and long-term receivables that mature within one year (including one year) from the date of the balance sheet as non-current assets that mature within one year; debt investments with a maturity of one year (including one year) at the time of acquisition are listed as other current assets. b) Measured at fair value through other comprehensive income The Company classifies a financial asset as subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income that meets both of the following conditions: The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial asset. The contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Such financial assets are measured at fair value and their changes are included in other comprehensive income, but assert impairment losses or gains, exchange gains or losses and interest income calculated in accordance with the effective interest rate method are included in profit or loss for the current period entirely. Such financial assets are listed as other debt investments, and other debt investments maturing within one year (including one year) from the date of the balance sheet are listed as non-current assets maturing within one year; other debt investments with a maturity of one year (inclusive) at the time of acquisition are listed as other current assets. c) Measured at fair value through profit or loss The Company classifies a financial asset as subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and listed as 81 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. financial assets held for trading unless it is subsequently measured at amortized cost or measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. The Company may make an irrevocable election at initial recognition to designate a financial asset as subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch. Other non-current financial assets shall be listed as those that mature more than one year from the balance sheet date and are expected to be held for more than one year. (b) equity instrument The company shall measure the equity instrument investment over which it has no control, joint control or significant influence according to the fair value through profit and loss, and list it as financial assets held for trading; those expected to be held for more than one year from the balance sheet date shall be listed as other non-current financial assets. In addition, the Company designated part of non-tradable equity instrument investments as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, and listed as other equity instrument investments. The related dividend income of such financial assets is recorded in the profit or loss for the current period entirely. Once made, the designation cannot be revoked. Where the contingent consideration recognized by the company in a business combination not under the common control constitutes a financial asset, the financial asset shall be classified as a financial asset measured at fair value through profit or loss. For non-tradable equity instrument investments, the company may, upon initial recognition, irrevocably designate them as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. The designation is made on a single investment basis that meets the definition of an equity instrument from the issuer's point of view. 4.10.1.2 Impairment of assets The company recognizes loss provisions on the basis of expected credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost, debt instrument investments which measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, lease receivables, contract assets and financial guarantee contracts. The Company considers reasonable and reliable information about past events, current conditions and the forecast of future economic conditions, and takes the risk of default as the weight to calculate the present value of the difference between the cash flow receivable under the contract and the cash flow which expected to receive. Then the probability-weighted amount of the present value should be recognized as expected credit loss. At each balance sheet date, the company separately measures the expected credit losses of financial instruments at different stages. If the credit risk of the financial instrument does not increase significantly after the initial recognition, it is in the first stage, and the company measures the loss provisions according to the expected credit losses in the next 12 months. If the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly since the initial recognition but no credit impairment has occurred, the financial instrument is in the second stage, and the company shall measure the loss provision according to the expected credit loss during the entire life of the instrument. If a financial instrument has suffered credit impairment since its initial recognition, it is in the third stage, and the company shall measure the loss provision according to the expected credit losses during the entire life of the instrument. The Company calculates interest income based on the book balance and effective interest rate of financial 82 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. instruments in stages I and II and with low credit risk. For financial instruments in the third stage, the interest income shall be calculated on the basis of the amortized cost and the effective interest rate after deducting the book balance from the provision for impairment. For notes receivable and accounts receivable, lease receivables and contract assets, regardless of the existence of a significant financing component, the Company may measure the loss provision in accordance with the expected credit losses for the entire life of the company. a) Credit risk significantly increases judgment criteria At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates whether the credit risk of the relevant financial instrument has increased significantly since the initial recognition. In determining whether credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition, the Company considers that reasonable and evidence-based information that can be obtained without unnecessary additional cost or effort, including qualitative and quantitative analyses based on historical data of the Company, external credit risk ratings and forward-looking information Based on a single financial instrument or a combination of financial instruments with similar credit risk characteristics, the company compares the risk of default of financial instruments on the balance sheet date with the risk of default on the initial recognition date to determine the change of the risk of default of financial instruments during their expected lifetime. When one or more of the following quantitative or qualitative criteria are triggered, the Company believes that the credit risk of the financial instrument has increased significantly: a.The quantitative standard is mainly that the default probability of the remaining duration on the reporting date increases by more than a certain proportion compared with the initial confirmation; b.The qualitative criteria mainly include the occurrence of significant adverse changes in the debtor's business or financial situation, the list of early warning customers, etc; c.The upper limit indicator is that the debtor's contract payment (including principal and interest) is generally overdue for more than 90 days, and the longest is not more than 180 days. b) Definition of assets with credit impairment In order to determine the occurrence of credit impairment, the definition criteria adopted by the Company are consistent with the internal credit risk management objectives for the relevant financial instruments, and both quantitative and qualitative indicators are taken into account. When evaluating whether the debtor has credit impairment, the company mainly considers the following factors: a. The issuer or the debtor has significant financial difficulties; b. The debtor violates the contract, such as default or overdue payment of interest or principal, etc.; c. Concessions granted by the creditor to the debtor for economic or contractual reasons related to the debtor's financial difficulties that would not have been made in any other circumstances; d. The debtor is likely to go bankrupt or undergo other financial restructuring; e. Financial difficulties of the issuer or debtor cause the disappearance of the active market for the financial asset; f. To purchase or generate a financial asset at a substantial discount that reflects the fact that a credit loss has occurred. The occurrence of credit impairment of financial assets may be caused by the joint action of multiple events, not necessarily by independently identifiable events 83 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. c) Parameters for the measurement of expected credit losses Depending on whether there is a significant increase in credit risk and whether there has been a credit impairment, the company measures the impairment provisions for different assets at the expected credit losses of 12 months or the whole life. The key parameters of expected credit loss measurement include default probability, default loss rate and default risk exposure. The company considers quantitative analysis and prospective information of historical statistical data (such as counterparty rating, guarantee method and category of pledge, repayment method, etc.) to establish probability of default, loss given default rate and default risk exposure model. Relevant definitions are as follows: a. Probability of default refers to the possibility that the debtor will be unable to fulfill its payment obligations in the next 12 months or in the entire remaining term. The default probability of the company is adjusted based on the results of the historical credit loss model, and forward-looking information is added to reflect the default probability of the debtor in the current macroeconomic environment. b. Loss given default rate refers to the company's expectation of the loss degree of default risk exposure. Loss given default rates vary depending on the type of counterparty, method of recourse and priority, and collateral. The loss given default rate is the percentage of the risk exposure loss at the time of default and is calculated on the basis of the next 12 months or the entire lifetime; c. Default risk exposure model is the amount payable to the company at the time of default in the next 12 months or for the remainder of its life. d) Prospective information Prospective information is involved in both the evaluation of the significant increase of credit risks and the calculation of expected credit loss. By analyzing historical data, the Company identifies credit risks for all business types and key economic indicators for expected credit loss. When the Company is unable to evaluate expected credit loss at reasonable cost for a single asset, the Company divides accounts receivable into several groups based on credit risk characteristics and calculates expected credit loss by groups. The basis for group determination is as follows: Item Basis for group Method of measuring expected credit loss determination Banker’s acceptance receivable Acceptor The Company calculates expected credit loss using default risk exposure and the lifetime expected credit loss rate by reference to historical experience of credit loss and based on current conditions as well as forecasts of future economic conditions. Trade acceptance receivable Acceptor By aging analysis 84 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. Accounts receivable - group of Companies within the The Company measures bad debt provisions by related parties consolidated scope reference to historical experience of credit loss and based on forecasts of future economic conditions. Accounts receivable - group of Companies outside the The Company calculates expected credit loss using external clients consolidated scope and aging and the lifetime expected credit loss rate. Lease receivable - group of third-party clients external clients Contract assets - group of Companies outside the The Company calculates expected credit loss using external clients consolidated scope and aging and the lifetime expected credit loss rate. third-party clients Other receivables - group of Companies within the The Company measures bad debt provisions by related parties consolidated scope reference to historical experience of credit loss and based on forecasts of future economic conditions. Other receivables - group of Companies outside the The Company measures loss provisions using the external clients consolidated scope and general method, namely, the “three phases” model. third-party clients Long-term receivables - group Companies outside the The Company measures loss provisions using the of external clients consolidated scope and general method, namely, the “three phases” model. third-party clients The comparison table between the aging of accounts receivable portfolio and the expected credit loss rate of the entire life of accounts receivable portfolio and lease receivable portfolio: Account receivable age Expected credit loss rate on accounts receivable Within 6 months 5.00% Six months to a year 10.00% 1 to 2 years 30.00% 2 to 3 years 50.00% More than 3 years 100.00% For other receivables divided into portfolios, the company refers to historical credit loss experience, combined with current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions, through default risk exposure and the expected credit loss rate within the next 12 months or the entire duration to calculate the expected credit loss. In order to reflect the changes in the credit risk of financial instruments since the initial recognition, the company and its subsidiaries re- measure the expected credit losses on each balance sheet date, and the resulting increase or reversal of the loss provision shall be regarded as impairment losses or the profit is included in the current profit and loss. For financial assets measured at amortized cost, the loss provision is deducted from the book value of the financial assets listed in the balance sheet; for debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss provision in the company and its subsidiaries is recognized in other comprehensive income without deducting the book value of the financial asset. 85 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 4.10.1.3 Terminate confirmation The recognition of a financial asset shall be terminated if it meets any of the following conditions: a. Termination of the contractual right to receive the cash flow of the financial asset; b. The financial asset has been transferred, and the Company has transferred almost all the risks and rewards in the ownership of the financial asset to the transferee; c. The financial asset has been transferred. Although the company neither transfers nor retains almost all risks and rewards in the ownership of the financial asset, it gives up control over the financial asset. When other equity instrument investment is terminated for recognition, the difference between its book value and the sum of the consideration received and the accumulative amount of the fair value changes originally recorded directly into other comprehensive income shall be recorded into retained earnings; When the recognition of other financial assets is terminated, the difference between its book value and the sum of the consideration received and the accumulative amount of fair value changes originally recorded directly into other comprehensive income shall be recorded into the profit or loss for the current period. 4.10.1.4 Write-off If the company and its subsidiaries no longer reasonably expect to recover all or part of the contractual cash flow of the financial asset, the book balance of the financial asset shall be directly written down. Such write downs constitute a termination recognition of the underlying financial asset. This typically occurs when the company and its subsidiaries determine that the debtor has no assets or sources of income that can generate sufficient cash flow to repay the amount to be written down. However, in accordance with the procedures for the company and its subsidiaries to recover amounts due, the financial assets that are written down may still be affected by the execution activities. If the financial assets that have been written down are recovered later, they shall be included in the profit or loss for the current period as the reversal of the asset impairment loss. 4.10.2 Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are classified into financial liabilities measured at amortized cost and financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss at the time of initial recognition. The Company classifies financial liabilities as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, except as follows: (a) Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, including financial liabilities held for trading (including derivatives that are financial liabilities) and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss. (b) Financial liabilities that arise when transfers of financial assets do not qualify for derecognition or when the continuing involvement approach applies (c) Financial guarantee contracts which are not classified as (a) or (b) and commitments to provide a loan at a belowmarket interest rate which are not classified as (a). In a business combination not under the common control, if the company is recognized as the purchaser of the contingent consideration and forms financial liabilities, the financial liabilities shall be measured at fair value through profit and loss. At the time of initial recognition, in order to provide more relevant accounting information, the company may designate financial liabilities as financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss for the current period. Such designation satisfies one of the following conditions: 86 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. (a) Can eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatches. (b) Manage and evaluate the portfolio of financial liabilities or financial assets and portfolio of financial liabilities on the basis of fair value in accordance with the enterprise risk management or investment strategy stated in formal written documents, and report to key management personnel within the company on this basis. Once made, the designation cannot be revoked. The company's financial liabilities are mainly financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, including notes payable and accounts payable, other payables, loans and bonds payable, etc. This kind of financial liability is initially measured at its fair value after deducting transaction expenses, and the effective interest rate method is adopted for subsequent measurement. Where the maturity is less than one year (including one year), it is listed as current liabilities; Where the maturity is more than one year but matures within one year (including one year) from the date of the balance sheet, it is shown as the non-current liabilities due within one year; The remainder is shown as non-current liabilities. When the current obligation of a financial liability (or a part of it) has been discharged, the company derecognizes the part of the financial liability or the discharged obligation. The difference between the book value of the derecognized part and the consideration paid is included in the current profit and loss. When the current obligation of a financial liability (or a part of it) has been discharged, the company derecognizes the financial liability (or this part of the financial liability). 4.10.3 Measurement method of financial instruments' fair value For financial instruments that active markets exist, the Company uses the quoted prices in the active markets to determine their fair value. If there is no active market for the financial instruments, the Company uses valuation techniques to determine their fair value. When valuing, the company adopts valuation techniques that are applicable under the current circumstances and that there are sufficient available data and other information to support, and selects a valuation technique that is consistent with the characteristics of the asset or liability considered by market participants in the transaction of the relevant asset or liability. Input values and, where possible, prefer relevant observable input values. Unobservable input values are used when the relevant observable input values are unavailable or impractical to obtain. 4.10.4 Subsequent measurement After initial recognition, the company shall make subsequent measurement of different types of financial assets at amortized cost, measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, or measured at fair value through profit and loss. After initial recognition, the company shall make subsequent measurement of different types of financial liabilities at amortized cost, measured at fair value through profits and losses or through other appropriate methods. The amortized cost of a financial asset or financial liability shall be determined by the following adjustment of the initial recognized amount of the financial asset or financial liability: (a) Deduct the principal already repaid. 87 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. (b) Plus or minus the cumulative amortization amount formed by amortizing the difference between the initial recognition amount and the amount at maturity using the effective interest rate method. (c) Deduct the accumulated loss provisions (only applicable to financial assets). The company recognizes interest income according to the effective interest rate method. Interest income is calculated and determined by multiplying the book balance of the financial asset by the actual interest rate, except in the following cases: (a) For the financial assets acquired or originated with credit impairment, the Company shall calculate and determine the interest income according to the amortized cost of the financial asset and the effective interest rate adjusted by credit since the initial recognition. (b) For financial assets purchased or generated without credit impairment but which become credit impairment in subsequent periods, the Company shall calculate and determine its interest income according to the amortized cost and effective interest rate of the financial asset in subsequent periods. Company according to the policy of the financial asset amortized cost using the actual interest rate method to calculate the interest income, if the financial instruments in the subsequent period no longer exist for its credit risk has improved credit impairment, and the improved objectively and application after the policy associated with the occurrence of an event, such as the debtor's credit rating was raised, The company turns to the actual interest rate multiplied by the book balance of the financial asset to determine the interest income. 4.11 Notes receivable For the determination and accounting treatment of expected credit losses of notes receivable, please refer to Note IV, 10 -- Financial Instruments. 4.12 Accounts receivable For the determination and accounting treatment of expected credit losses of accounts receivable, please refer to Notes IV, 10 -- Financial Instruments. 4.13 Receivables for financing For the determination and accounting treatment of expected credit losses of receivables for financing, please refer to Note IV, 10 -- Financial Instruments. 4.14. Other receivables For the determination and accounting treatment of other expected credit losses of other receivables, please refer to Note IV, 10 -- Financial Instruments. 4.15 Inventories 4.15.1 Categories of inventories Inventories include raw materials, work-in-progress, semi-finished products, finished products, commodities in stock, turnover materials, low-value consumables and contract performance costs., etc. The "Contract performance cost" are 88 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. detailed in 17, "Contract Costs". 4.15.2 Measurement of inventories upon delivery Weighted average method is used to measure the actual costs of inventories upon delivery. 4.15.3 Provision for diminution in value of inventories At each balance sheet date, inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. When the cost of inventory exceeds its net realizable value, provision for diminution in value of inventories is recognized and included in the current profit and loss. Net realizable value refers to the estimated selling price of inventories in daily activities minus the estimated costs to be incurred upon completion, estimated selling expenses and related taxes. The basis for determining the net realizable value of various inventories is as follows: (a) Finished products, commodities in stock and materials for sale that directly used for sale are the estimated selling price minus the estimated cost of sales and relevant taxes. (b) Materials held for production are based on cost measurement when the finished products’ net realizable value is higher than cost; the material price decline shows that the finished products’ net realizable value is lower than cost, net realizable value is calculated as an estimated sales price minus the estimated cost, the cost of sales and the relevant taxes amount. (c) On the balance sheet date, if a part of the same inventory has contract price and the other parts do not have contract price, the net realizable value shall be determined respectively, and the corresponding cost shall be compared to determine the amount of withdrawal or reversal of the inventory depreciation reserve. Goods in stock drops in price preparing shall be made on a single inventory item (or category of inventory) and consolidated for inventories that are related to product series produced and sold in the same region, have the same or similar end use or purpose, and are difficult to measure separately from other items. 4.15.4 Inventory count system The Company adopts the perpetual inventory system. 4.15.5 Amortization methods of low-value consumables Low-cost consumables are amortized by the equal-split amortization method. 4.16 Contract assets 4.16.1 Method and standard for the confirmation of contract assets A contractual asset is a right to receive consideration that has been transferred to a customer and that right depends on factors other than the passage of time. Contract assets and liabilities under the same contract shall be shown on a net basis, and those under different contracts shall not be set off. 4.16.2 Determination method and accounting treatment method of expected credit loss of contract assets The provision for impairment of contractual assets shall refer to the expected credit loss method of financial instruments. For contract assets that do not contain significant financing components, the Company adopts a 89 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. simplified method to measure loss provisions. For the contract assets containing significant financing elements, the Company shall measure the loss provisions in accordance with the general method. In the event of an impairment loss on a contract asset, the “asset impairment loss” shall be debited according to the amount to be written down, and the contract asset impairment provision shall be credited; the reverse entry shall be made when the accrued asset impairment provision is reversed. 4.17 Contract costs 4.17.1 Determination method of asset amount related to contract costs The contract costs of the Company include the incremental costs to obtain a contract and the costs to fulfil a contract. If the costs incurred in fulfilling a contract with a customer are not within the scope of another standard like Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue (Revised in 2017), they will be treated as the costs to fulfil a contract and recognized as an asset when meeting the following conditions: (a) the costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Company can specifically identify, including direct labour, direct materials, allocations of costs that relate directly to the contract, costs that are explicitly chargeable to the customer under the contract and other costs that are incurred only because the Company entered into the contract; (b) the costs generate or enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future; (c) the costs are expected to be recovered. The cost of obtaining the contract, that is, the incremental cost of obtaining a contract is expected to be recovered, is recognized as an asset as contract acquisition cost. Incremental costs are costs that would not have occurred without the acquisition of the contract. If the amortization period of the asset does not exceed one year, it may be recorded into the profit or loss for the current period at the time of occurrence. Expenditures incurred by the enterprise to obtain the contract, other than incremental costs expected to be recovered, shall be recorded in the profit or loss for the current period when incurred, unless these expenditures are expressly borne by the customer. 4.17.2 Amortization of assets related to contract costs Assets related to contract costs are amortized on the same basis as the commodity revenue related to the asset is recognized, and are included in the current profit and loss. 4.17.3 Impairment of assets related to contract costs The Company recognizes an impairment loss in profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of an asset recognized exceeds: (a) the remaining amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services to which the asset relates; less (b) the costs that relate directly to providing those goods or services and that are estimated to incur. When the impairment conditions no longer exist or have improved that make the total of (a) and (b) higher than carrying amount of an asset, the Company will recognize in profit or loss a reversal of some or all of an impairment 90 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. loss previously recognized. The increased carrying amount of the asset will not exceed the amount that would have been determined (net of amortisation) if no impairment loss had been recognized previously. 4.18 Hold assets for sale 4.18.1 Non-current assets held for sale and disposal group recognition criteria A company that recovers its carrying value primarily through sales (including exchange of non-monetary assets of commercial substance, the same below) rather than the ongoing use of a non-current asset or disposal group will classify it as held for sale. The specific criteria are as follows: (a) In accordance with the practice of selling such assets or disposal groups in similar transactions, they can be sold immediately under the current conditions. (b) The sale is very likely to occur, that is, the company has made a resolution on a sale plan and obtained a firm purchase commitment, and the sale is expected to be completed within one year. Among them, the disposal group refers to a group of assets that are disposed of as a whole in a transaction through sale or other means, and the liabilities directly related to these assets transferred in the transaction. If the asset group or combination of asset groups to which the disposal group belongs has apportioned the goodwill obtained in the business combination in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 8 – Impairment of Assets, the disposal group shall include the goodwill apportioned to the disposal group. 4.18.2 Accounting treatment When the initial measurement or re-measurement on the balance sheet date is divided into non-current assets held for sale and disposal group, if the book value is higher than the net amount after the fair value minus the cost of sale, the book value is written down to the fair value The net amount after deducting the selling expenses, the written-down amount is recognized as asset impairment loss, which is included in the current profit and loss, and at the same time, an impairment provision for assets held for sale is made. For the disposal group, the recognized asset impairment loss is first deducted from the book value of the goodwill in the disposal group, and then deducted proportionally to the "Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 42 - Non-current Assets Held for Sale, The book value of each non-current asset specified in the measurement of "Disposal Group and Discontinued Operation" (hereinafter referred to as "Hold-for-sale Standards"). If the net amount of the disposal group held for sale on the subsequent balance sheet date increases after deducting the selling expenses, the previously written down amount shall be restored, and the held-for-sale standard shall be applied after being classified as held-for-sale The amount of asset impairment loss recognized for non-current assets subject to measurement requirements shall be reversed, and the reversal amount shall be included in the current profit and loss, and the book value of each non-current asset in the disposal group shall be subject to the measurement provisions of the held-for-sale standard except for goodwill. The proportion increases its book value proportionally; the book value of goodwill that has been written off, and the non- current assets that are subject to the measurement requirements of the held-for-sale standard, the asset impairment loss recognized before being classified as held-for-sale shall not be reversed. No depreciation or amortization is provided for 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. 91 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. When the non-current assets or disposal groups no longer meet the classification conditions of the held-for-sale category, they will no longer be classified as held-for-sale categories or the non-current assets will be removed from the held-for-sale disposal group, and the lower of the following is measured: (a) The book value before being classified as held-for-sale category, adjusted according to the depreciation, amortization or impairment that should have been recognized under the assumption that it was not classified as held- for-sale category; (b) The recoverable amount. 4.19 Debt investment For the confirmation method and accounting treatment method of expected credit loss of debt investment, please refer to Note IV. 10 - Financial Instruments. 4.20 Other debt investments For the confirmation method and accounting treatment method of expected credit losses of other debt investments, please refer to Note IV. 10 - Financial Instruments. 4.21 Long-term receivables For the confirmation method and accounting treatment method of the expected credit loss of long-term receivables, please refer to Note IV. 10 - Financial Instruments. 4.22 Long-term equity investment Long-term equity investment refers to the equity investment in which the company controls and has significant influence on the investee, as well as the investment in its joint ventures. 4.22.1 Determination of initial investment cost Long-term equity investment acquired through a business combination: For a business combination involving enterprises under common control, the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment is the holding share of the acquiree's equity in the ultimate controlling party's consolidated financial statements measured at the carrying amounts at the acquisition date. For a business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment is the cost of acquisition determined at the date of acquisition. For a long-term equity investment acquired in cash, the initial investment cost is the amount of cash paid. For a long- term equity investment acquired by issuing equity securities, the initial investment cost is the fair value of the equity securities issued. For a long-term equity investment acquired by debt restructuring, the initial investment cost is determined according to related requirements of Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 12- Debt Restructuring. For a long-term equity investment acquired by exchange of non-cash assets, the initial investment cost is determined according to related requirements of Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 7- Exchange of Non-monetary Assets. 92 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 4.22.2 Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss a) Where the Company is able to exercise control over an investee, the long-term equity investment is accounted for using the cost method. Long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method are priced at the initial investment cost. Additional or recovered investment should adjust the cost of long-term equity investment. Cash dividends or profits announced to be distributed by the investee are recognized as investment income for the current period. b) Where the Company has investment in associates and joint ventures, the long-term equity investment is accounted for using the equity method. When the long-term equity investment is accounted for by the equity method, if the investment cost of the long-term equity investment is greater than the share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the investee at the time of investment, the investment cost of the long-term equity investment shall not be adjusted; the investment cost of the long-term equity investment is less than If the investee should enjoy a share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the investee at the time of investment, the book value of the long-term equity investment shall be adjusted, and the difference shall be included in the current profit and loss of the investment. In the equity method accounting, when long-term equity investment is obtained, the investment profit and loss and other comprehensive income are respectively recognized according to the share of net profit and loss and other comprehensive income realized by the investee that should be enjoyed or shared, and the book value of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted. The investing enterprise shall calculate the portion that should be distributed according to the profits or cash dividends declared and distributed by the invested unit, and correspondingly reduce the book value of the long-term equity investment. The investor shall adjust the book value of the long-term equity investment and include it in the owner's equity for other changes in the owner's equity other than the net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution of the investee. To confirm the net loss of the investee, the book value of the long-term equity investment and other long-term equity that substantially constitutes the net investment in the investee shall be written down to zero, unless the company is obliged to bear additional losses to the investee . If the invested unit realizes a net profit in the future, the investing enterprise shall resume the recognition of the profit-sharing amount after its profit-sharing amount makes up for the unrecognized loss-sharing amount. For other changes in the owner's equity of the investee other than net profit and loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution, the book value of the long-term equity investment is adjusted and included in the owner's equity. Long-term equity investments are accounted for under the equity method. When recognizing investment gains and losses, the net profit of the investee is first adjusted to the fair value of the investee's identifiable assets, accounting policies and accounting periods when the investment is obtained, and then adjustments should be made according to the appropriate amount. The net profit or loss share of the investee that enjoys or should be shared is recognized in the current investment profit and loss. The unrealized profit and loss of internal transactions with associates and joint ventures shall be calculated according to the shareholding ratio and attributable to the company, and the investment profit and loss shall be recognized on the basis of offset. 4.22.3 Basis for recognition of joint control or significant influence over an investee Joint control refers to the common control of an arrangement in accordance with relevant agreements, and the 93 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. relevant activities of the arrangement must be decided by the unanimous consent of the participants sharing the control rights. When judging whether there is joint control, the first determine is whether all participants or a combination of participants collectively control the arrangement. If all participants or a group of participants must act in unison to decide the relevant activities of an arrangement, it is considered that all participants or a group of parties collectively control the arrangement. Secondly, it is judged whether the decision-making of the relevant activities of the arrangement must be unanimously agreed by the participants who collectively control the arrangement. If there is a combination of two or more parties that can collectively control an arrangement, it does not constitute joint control. When judging whether there is joint control, the protective rights enjoyed are not considered. Significant influence refers to the power to participate in the decision-making of an enterprise's financial and operating policies, but cannot control or jointly control the formulation of these policies with other parties. When determining whether it can exert significant influence on the investee, consider the voting shares directly or indirectly held by the investor and the impact of current executable potential voting rights held by the investor and other parties after it is assumed to be converted into the equity of the investee, including the current convertible warrants, share options and convertible corporate bonds issued by the investee. 4.23 Investment property Investment real estate refers to real estate held for rent or capital appreciation, or both, including leased land use rights, land use rights held and ready to be transferred after appreciation, and leased buildings. Investment property of the Company use rights held for resale after appreciation. Investment property is initially measured at acquisition cost, and is subsequently measured using the cost method or using the fair value model. 4.23.1 Using the cost model The investment real estate is depreciated or amortized on a straight-line basis according to the following service life and estimated net residual value rate: Category Depreciation period (years) Residual rate Annual depreciation rate Buildings 20-40 0%-10% 2.25%-5.00% 4.23.2 Using the fair value model No depreciation or amortization is made for investment real estate, and its book value is adjusted based on the fair value of the investment real estate on the balance sheet date, and the difference between the fair value and the original book value is included in the current profit and loss. 4.24 Fixed assets 4.24.1 Recognition criteria for fixed assets Fixed assets refer to tangible assets held for the purpose of producing commodities, services rendering, renting or business administration with useful lives exceeding one accounting year. Fixed assets can be recognized when the following criteria are met: a) It is probable that the economic benefits relating to the fixed assets will flow into the Company; and b) The costs of the fixed assets can be measured reliably. 4.24.2 Classification and depreciation method of fixed assets 94 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. The categories of fixed assets mainly include: buildings, boats & nets, machinery & equipment, transportation equipment, furniture and office equipment. The Company adopts the straight line method for depreciation. The useful life and residual value of an asset is assessed based on its nature and the manner of use. At the end of each financial year, the useful lives, residual values and the depreciation method are reviewed, and adjusted if there are variances with the original estimates. Other than fully depreciated assets which are still in use and land individually measured and recorded, depreciation is provided for all fixed assets. Category The method for Depreciation period Residual rate Annual depreciation rate depreciation (years) Buildings Straight-line depreciation 20-40 0%-10% 2.25%-5.00% Boats & nets Straight-line depreciation 5-30 3%-5% 3.17%-19.40% Machinery & equipment Straight-line depreciation 8-20 0%-10% 4.50%-12.50% Transportation equipment Straight-line depreciation 5 0%-10% 18.00%-20.00% Furniture and office equipment Straight-line depreciation 5 0%-10% 18.00%-20.00% 4.25 Construction in progress The construction in progress of the Company includes self-construction and sub-contracting construction. Construction in progress is transferred to fixed assets when it has reached the working condition for its intended use. The recognition criteria of intended use include any of the followings: a) The tangible work of fixed assets (including installation) have been entirely or substantively completed; b) Trial production or trial operation has occurred whose outcome indicates the asset can be operated properly or manufacture quality product steadily; c) No expenditure or insignificant expenditure occur subsequently for the constructed asset; d) The constructed asset has achieved or substantively achieved the requirement of design or contract. 4.26 Borrowing costs 4.26.1 Recognition criteria for capitalization of borrowing costs Borrowing costs are capitalized when they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset and included in the cost of related assets. Qualifying assets that meet conditions for capitalization are fixed assets, investment property, inventory or other assets that take a substantial period of time for construction or production in order to get ready for their intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are recognized as expenses and recorded in profit or loss for the current period when incurred. Borrowing costs include borrowing interest, amortization of discount or premium, auxiliary expenses, and foreign exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings. 4.26.2 Borrowing costs will be capitalized if they meet the following conditions at the same time (a) The asset expenditure has occurred, and the asset expenditure includes the cash paid for the purchase, construction or production of assets eligible for capitalization, the transfer of non-cash assets or the payment of interest-bearing debts; (b) The borrowing costs have been incurred; (c) The acquisition, construction or production activities necessary to make the asset ready for its intended use or sale have begun. 95 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. The capitalization of borrowing costs shall cease when the purchased, constructed or produced assets that meet the capitalization conditions are ready for intended use or sale. If an asset that meets the capitalization conditions is abnormally interrupted in the process of acquisition, construction or production, and the interruption lasts for more than 3 months, the capitalization of borrowing costs will be suspended. The borrowing costs incurred during the interruption period are recognized as expenses and included in the current profit and loss until the acquisition, construction or production of the asset resumes. The capitalization of borrowing costs continues if the interruption is a necessary procedure for the acquired, constructed or produced assets eligible for capitalization to be ready for their intended use or sale. 4.26.3 During the capitalization period, the capitalized amount of interest (including the amortization of discount or premium) for each accounting period shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions: (a) If a special loan is borrowed for the purchase, it is determined by the amount interest expense actually incurred in the current period of the special loan, minus the interest income obtained from the unused loan funds or the investment income obtained from temporary investment. (b) If general borrowings are occupied for the purchase, it is determined by the weighted average of accumulated asset expenditures of the accumulated asset expenditures in exceed the special borrowings by the capitalization rate of occupied general borrowings. The capitalization rate is determined based on the weighted average interest rate of general borrowings. If there is a discount or premium on the loan, the amount of the discount or premium amortized in each accounting period shall be determined according to the actual interest rate method, and the interest amount of each period shall be adjusted. During the capitalization period, the capitalized amount of interest in each accounting period shall not exceed the actual amount of interest incurred on the relevant borrowings in the current period. 4.26.4 The auxiliary expenses incurred by special borrowing, which are incurred before the purchased, built or produced assets meeting the capitalization conditions reach the scheduled state of being available for use or sale, shall be capitalized according to the amount incurred when incurred and included into the cost of the assets meeting the capitalization conditions; Where an asset purchased, built or produced conforming to the capitalization conditions has reached the pre-scheduled state of being usable or saleable, it shall be recognized as an expense according to the amount incurred at the time of occurrence and recorded into the profit or loss for the current period. Auxiliary expenses incurred by general borrowing shall be recognized as expenses according to the amount incurred when incurred, and shall be recorded into the profit or loss for the current period. 4.27 Right-of-use assets The right-of-use assets class of the company mainly includes housing and buildings. 4.27.1 Conditions for the confirmation of the right-of-use assets The right-of-use assets refer to the right that the company, as the lessee, can use the leased assets during the lease term. The company shall confirm the right-of-use assets on the date when the lease term begins. Right-of-use assets are recognized when economic benefits are likely to flow in and costs can be measured reliably. 96 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 4.27.2 Initial measurement of right-of-use assets The right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which includes: (a) The initial measurement amount of lease liabilities. (b) The amount of lease payment paid on or before the beginning of the lease term, if there is lease incentive, will be deducted from the amount of lease incentive already enjoyed. (c) Initial direct expenses incurred by the lessee. (d) The expected costs incurred by the lessee in disassembling and removing the leased asset, restoring the site where the leased asset is located or restoring the leased asset to the state stipulated in the lease terms. 4.27.3 Subsequent measurement of the right-of-use assets (a) Use the cost model to measure the right-of-use assets. (b) Depreciation of the right-of-use assets. Where the ownership of the leased asset can be reasonably determined at the end of the lease term, the company shall calculate depreciation during the remaining service life of the leased asset. Where it is not reasonably certain that the ownership of the leased asset can be acquired at the end of the lease term, the company shall calculate depreciation during the period during which the lease term and the remaining service life of the leased asset are shorter. The specific depreciation methods of various right-of-use assets are as follows. 4.27.4 Depreciation methods of various right-of-use assets All types of fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method according to the following service life time, estimated net residual value rateand depreciation rate: Category The method for depreciation Depreciation period (years) Residual rate Annual depreciation rate Buildings Straight-line depreciation 1.5-3 - - 4.27.5 Change of lease When the lease liabilities are re-measured according to the present value of the changed lease payments and the book value of the right-of-use assets is adjusted accordingly, if the book value of the right-of-use assets has been reduced to zero but the lease liabilities still need to be further reduced, the remaining amount shall be recorded into the profit or loss for the current period. 4.27.6 Impairment test method and impairment provision method of usufruct On the balance sheet date, if there is any indication that the right-of-use assets are impaired, the corresponding impairment provision shall be set aside according to the difference between the carrying value and the recoverable amount. 4.28 Intangible assets 4.28.1 Intangible assets refer to identifiable non-monetary assets without physical form owned or controlled by an enterprise. Intangible assets are initially measured at cost, and their service life is analyzed and judged upon acquisition of intangible assets. 97 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 4.28.2 The company usually considers the following factors in determining the service life of intangible assets: (a) The usual life cycle of the products produced with the asset and the available information about the service life of similar assets; (b) The current situation of technology and process and the estimation of the future development trend; (c) Market demand for products or services produced by the assets; (d) Actions expected by current or potential competitors; (e) The expected maintenance expenditure to maintain the ability of the asset to bring economic benefits, and the company's expected ability to pay the related expenditure; (f) Relevant legal provisions or similar restrictions on the asset control period, such as the franchise period, lease period, etc.; (g) Correlation with the service life of other assets held by enterprises. If it is impossible to foresee the period during which intangible assets bring economic benefits to the company, they shall be regarded as intangible assets with uncertain service life. 4.28.3 For intangible assets with limited service life, they shall be amortized systematically and reasonably (or by straight line method) during their service life. At the end of each year, the company shall review the service life and amortization method of intangible assets with limited service life. If the service life and amortization method of intangible assets are different from those previously estimated, the amortization period and amortization method will be changed. For intangible assets with limited service life, when the straight-line method is used to calculate the amortization amount, the service life and residual rate of each intangible asset are as follows: Category Amortization period (years) Residual rate land use rights 42-49 0% software 5-10 0% 4.28.4 Internally generated projects (a) Expenditure of internal research and development project, including expenditure of research stage and expenditure of development stage, among which: Research is an original and planned investigation for the acquisition and understanding of new scientific or technical knowledge; Development refers to the application of research results or other knowledge to a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved materials, devices, products, etc., prior to commercial production or use. (b) Expenditure in the research phase is recognized as an expense in profit or loss for current period when it is incurred. Expenditure in the development phase of internally generated projects is capitalized if they meet the following conditions at the same time: 1) It is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it can be used or sold; 2) The intent that the intangible asset can be completed and used or sold; 3) The way in which the intangible assets can generate economic benefits include the ability to prove that the products produced by using the intangible assets have a market or that the intangible assets themselves exist in the market. If the intangible assets will be used internally, its usefulness shall be proved; 98 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 4) Have sufficient technical, financial and other resource support to complete the development of the intangible asset and have the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; 5) Expenses attributable to the development stage of the intangible asset can be measured reliably. 4.29 Goodwill Goodwill is the difference between the initial merger cost and the fair value share of identifiable net assets acquired in the combination of enterprises not under common control. The company does not amortize goodwill, which is measured by the amount of costs less accumulated impairment provisions and shown separately in the consolidated balance sheet. 4.30 Impairment of long-term assets For fixed assets, construction in process, intangible assets with limited service life, investment property measured by cost model and non-current non-financial assets such as long-term equity investment in subsidiaries, cooperative enterprise and associated enterprises, the company shall judge whether there is any sign of impairment on the balance sheet date. If there is any indication 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 a usable state, regardless of whether there are signs of impairment, are tested for impairment every year. If the impairment test results show that the recoverable amount of an asset is lower than its carrying value, the impairment provision shall be made and the impairment loss shall be recorded according to the difference. The recoverable amount is the higher of the net value of the fair value of the asset less the disposal expense and the present value of the estimated future cash flows of the asset. The fair value of the asset is determined according to the sales agreement price in a fair transaction; If there is no sales agreement but there is an active market for the asset, the fair value shall be determined according to the bid price of the buyer of the asset; Where there is no sale agreement and an active market for the asset, the fair value of the asset is estimated based on the best available information. Disposal costs include legal fees related to the disposal of assets, related taxes, handling fees and direct expenses incurred to bring the assets into a saleable state. The present value of the estimated future cash flow of an asset is determined according to the estimated future cash flow generated during the continuous use of the asset and the final disposal by choosing an appropriate discount rate. The asset impairment reserve is calculated and recognized on the basis of a single asset. If it is difficult to estimate the recoverable amount of a single asset, the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the asset belongs shall be determined. Asset group is the minimum portfolio of assets that can generate cash inflow independently. As for the impairment test of goodwill, the book value of goodwill formed as a result of business combination shall be allocated to the relevant asset group in a reasonable way from the purchase date; If it is difficult to allocate to the related asset group, allocate to the related asset group portfolio. The relevant asset group or asset group combination is the asset group or asset group combination that can benefit from the synergies of the business combination and is not larger than the reporting segment identified by the Company. When conducting impairment tests on related asset groups or asset group combinations containing goodwill, if there are signs of impairment in the asset groups or asset group combinations related to goodwill, the impairment tests shall first be conducted on the asset groups or asset group combinations that do not contain goodwill to calculate recoverable amounts and confirm the corresponding impairment losses. And goodwill of the asset group or 99 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. combination of group assets impairment test, comparing its book value and recoverable amount, such as the recoverable amount is lower than the book value, the amount of impairment loss first deduction allocation to the asset group or combination of group assets in the book value of the goodwill, again according to the asset group or combination of group assets all assets except goodwill in the book value of the share, Deduct the carrying value of other assets in proportion, provided that the carrying value of each asset after deduction shall not be less than the net of the fair value of the asset minus disposal expenses (if determined) and the present value of the estimated future cash flows of the asset (if determined), whichever is higher, and shall not be less than zero. Once the aforesaid impairment loss of assets is recognized, the part whose value can be recovered shall not be turned back in subsequent periods. 4.31 Long-term deferred expenses Long-term deferred expenses refer to expenses that have been paid but their benefit period is more than one year (excluding one year). Long-term deferred expenses will be amortized in the benefit periods. If one long-term deferred expense can't benefit the Company in the subsequent periods, the remaining balance of the long-term deferred expense shall be recognized as expense in profit or loss for the current period. Long-term deferred expenses are amortized on an average basis using the straight-line method over the following years: Category Amortization period (years) Renovation costs 2 to 5 years 4.32 Contract liabilities Contractual liabilities reflect obligations to transfer goods to customers for consideration received or receivable. If the customer has paid the contract consideration or obtained the right to unconditionally receive the contract consideration before transferring the goods to the customer, the contract liability shall be recognized according to the amount received or receivable at the earlier date of the actual payment made by the customer and the amount due and payable. Contract assets and liabilities under the same contract shall be shown on a net basis, and those under different contracts shall not be set off. 4.33 Employee benefits Employee benefits refer to all forms of consideration or compensation given by the Company in exchange for service rendered by employees or for the termination of employment relationship. Employee benefits include short-term employee benefits, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits.

Defined benefit plans refer to post-employment benefit plans other than defined contribution plans. Defined contribution plan including basic endowment insurance, unemployment insurance, etc. During the accounting period when the employee provides services, the amount payable calculated according to the defined contribution plan is recognized as a liability and recorded into the profit or loss for the current period or the cost of related assets. At the end of the reporting period, the employee compensation costs arising from the defined benefit plans are recognized as the following components: (a) Service cost, including current service cost, past service cost and settlement gain or loss. (b) Net interest on defined benefit plan net liabilities or net assets, including interest income on plan assets, interest expense on defined benefit plan obligations, and interest affected by asset caps. (c) Recalculate changes in net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans Unless other accounting standards require or allow the cost of employee benefits to be included in the cost of assets, items (a) and (b) above shall be included in the current profit and loss; Item (c) shall be included in other comprehensive income and shall not be allowed to be transferred back to profit and loss in subsequent accounting periods, but such amounts recognized in other comprehensive income may be transferred within the scope of equity. Under the defined benefit plan, the earliest date on which past service costs are recognized as current expenses is: (a) When modifying the defined benefit plan. (b) When the company confirms relevant restructuring expenses or dismissal benefits. Recognize a settlement gain or loss at the time of defined benefit plan settlement. 4.33.3 Termination benefits Termination benefits refer to the compensation given to employees by the company for terminating their labor relations with employees before the expiration of their labor contracts or for encouraging employees to accept layoffs voluntarily. Termination benefits provided by the Company to employees are recognized as an employee benefit liability and charged to profit or loss for the current period at the earlier of the following dates: (a) The Company cannot unilaterally withdraw the offer of termination benefits because of an employment termination plan or a curtailment proposal; and (b) When the Company recognizes costs or expenses related to the restructuring that involves the 101 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. payment of termination benefits. 4.33.4 Other long-term employee benefits Other long-term employee benefits refers to all employee compensation except short-term compensation, post- separation benefits and dismissal benefits, including long-term paid absenteeism, long-term disability benefits, long- term profit sharing plans, etc. If other long-term employee benefits provided by the Company to the employees meet the conditions for classifying as a defined contributions plan, those benefits are accounted for in accordance with the above requirements relating to defined contribution plan. Besides, net obligations or net assets of other long-term employee benefits are recognized and measured in accordance with the above requirements relating to defined benefits plan. At the end of the reporting period, the enterprise shall recognize the employee compensation costs generated by other long-term employee benefits as the following components: (a) Service cost (b) Net interest on net liabilities or net assets of other long-term employee benefits (c) Changes in net liabilities or net assets of other long-term employee benefits are re-measured. In order to simplify the related accounting treatment, the total net amount of the above items is included in the current profit and loss or the cost of the related assets 4.34 Lease liabilities Recognize the present value of outstanding lease payments as lease liabilities on the commencement date of the lease term, except for short-term leases and leases of low value assets. When calculating the present value of the lease payment, the lease embedded interest rate is used as the discount rate. If the inherent interest rate cannot be determined, the incremental interest rate of the lessee shall be used as the discount rate. The interest expense of the lease liability during each period of the lease term shall be calculated according to the fixed periodic interest rate and recorded into the profit and loss of the current period, except for those recorded into the cost of assets in accordance with note 4 and 25. Variable lease payments that are not included in the measurement of lease liabilities shall be included in current profit and loss when actually incurred, unless otherwise stipulated to be included in the cost of related assets. Lease term began, in the future when substantial changes occurred in the fixed payment, the guaranteed residual value is expected to cope with the amount of change, is used to determine the lease payment ratio index or change, call options, renewal options or terminate the option evaluation results or the actual exercise changes, according to the changes of the lease the present value of the payments to measure lease liability. 4.35 Estimated liabilities Obligations related to contingent events that meet the following conditions at the same time are recognized as estimated liabilities: (a) The obligation is a present obligation of the enterprise; (b) The performance of the obligation is likely to result in the outflow of economic benefits from the enterprise; (c) The amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 102 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. Estimated liabilities should be initially measured according to the best estimate of the expenditure required to perform the relevant current obligations. 4.36 Share-based payment 4.36.1 Types of share-based payment Share-based payment is divided into equity-settled share-based payment and cash-settled share-based payment. Equity-settled share-based payment refers to a transaction in which an enterprise uses shares or other equity instruments as consideration in order to obtain services. The equity instruments referred to here are the enterprise's own equity instruments. Cash-settled share-based payment refers to a transaction in which an enterprise undertakes an obligation to deliver cash or other assets calculated and determined on the basis of shares or other equity instruments in order to obtain services. 4.36.2 Determination method of fair value of equity instruments. If there is an active market for equity instruments, it shall be determined according to the quotation in the active market. If there is no active market for equity instruments, use valuation techniques, including reference to prices used in recent market transactions between parties who are familiar with the situation and willing to trade, reference to the current fair value, discounted cash flow of other financial instruments that are substantially the same. It is determined by methods such as cash method and option pricing model. 4.36.3 The basis for confirming the best estimate of vested equity instruments. On each balance sheet date, according to the latest follow-up information such as the change in the number of exercisable people and the completion of performance indicators, the number of stock options that are expected to be exercised is revised, and the expenses to be apportioned in each period are confirmed on this basis. For an option cost spanning multiple accounting periods, it can generally be apportioned according to the proportion of the waiting period length of the option to the entire waiting period length in a certain accounting period. 4.36.4 Accounting treatment related to implementation, modification and termination of share-based payment plan 4.36.4.1 The equity-settled share-based payment that is exercisable immediately after the grant in exchange for employee services shall be included in the relevant costs or expenses according to the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant date, and the capital reserve shall be increased accordingly. Equity-settled share-based payment that can be exercised in exchange for employee services after the completion of the service during the waiting period or when the specified performance conditions are met, on each balance sheet date during the waiting period, the best estimate of the number of exercisable equity instruments is Based on the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant date, the services obtained in the current period are included in the relevant costs or expenses and capital reserves. On the balance sheet date, if the subsequent information indicates that the number of exercisable equity instruments is different from the previous estimate, adjustments shall be made and adjusted to the actual number of exercisable 103 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. equity instruments on the exercise date. For equity-settled share-based payments, no adjustments will be made to the confirmed costs and total owner's equity after the vesting date. On the exercise date, the share capital and share premium will be confirmed according to the exercise situation, and the capital reserves (other capital reserves) confirmed during the waiting period will be carried forward. For the granted equity instruments such as options in an active market, the fair value shall be determined according to the quotation in the active market. For granted options and other equity instruments that do not have an active market, the option pricing model should be used to determine their fair value, and the option pricing model selected should at least consider the following factors: a) The exercise price of the option; b) The validity period of the option; c) The current price of the underlying shares; d) Estimated stock price volatility; e) Estimated dividends on the shares; f) The risk-free interest rate during the life of the option. 4.36.4.2 The cash-settled share-based payment that can be exercised immediately after the grant shall be included in the relevant costs or expenses at the fair value of the liabilities assumed by the enterprise on the grant date, and the liabilities shall be increased accordingly. For the cash-settled share-based payment that can only be exercised after completing the services during the waiting period or meeting the specified performance conditions, on each balance sheet date during the waiting period, on the basis of the best estimate of the vesting situation, the liability shall be borne by the enterprise according to the the fair value amount of the service obtained in the current period is included in the cost or expense and the corresponding liability. On each balance sheet date and settlement date before the settlement of the relevant liabilities, the fair value of the liabilities is re-measured, and the changes are included in the current profit and loss. 4.37 Revenues Accounting policies used for revenue recognition and measurement. 4.37.1 Principles of revenue recognition When the contract with the customer meets the following conditions at the same time, the revenue is recognized when the customer obtains the control of the relevant commodity: (a) The parties to the contract have approved the contract and promised to perform their respective obligations; (b) The contract clarifies the rights and obligations of the parties to the contract in relation to the transferred goods or the provision of labor services; (c) The contract has clear payment terms related to the transferred goods; (d) The contract has commercial substance, that is, the performance of the contract will change the risk, time distribution or amount of future cash flows of the Group; (e) The consideration entitled to the transfer of goods to the customer is likely to be recovered. Evaluate the contract on the contract inception date, identify each individual performance obligation contained in the 104 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. contract, and allocate the transaction price to each individual performance obligation according to the relative proportion of the stand-alone selling price of the commodities promised by each individual performance obligation. In determining the transaction price, the influence of factors such as variable consideration, significant financing components in the contract, non-cash consideration, and consideration payable to customers are considered. Then determine whether each individual performance obligation is performed within a certain period of time or at a certain point in time, and recognize revenue separately when each individual performance obligation is performed. If one of the following conditions is met, the performance obligation is fulfilled within a certain period of time; otherwise, the performance obligation is fulfilled at a certain point in time: a) The customer obtains and consumes the economic benefits brought by the company's performance when the company performs the contract; b) The customer can control the commodities under construction in the process of contract performance; c) The commodities produced by the enterprise during the performance of the contract have irreplaceable uses, and the enterprise has the right to receive payment for the part of the performance that has been completed so far during the entire contract period. For performance obligations performed within a certain period of time, revenue is recognized according to the progress of performance within that period. The progress of contract performance is determined by the input method or output method according to the nature of the transferred goods. When the progress of contract performance cannot be reasonably determined, and the costs incurred are expected to be compensated, revenue shall be recognized according to the amount of costs incurred until the progress of contract performance can be reasonably determined. If one of the above conditions is not met, revenue will be recognized at the transaction price allocated to the single performance obligation when the customer obtains control over the relevant commodity. The following indications should be considered when judging whether a customer has acquired control of a commodity: The enterprise has the current right to receive payment for the product, that is, the customer has the current payment obligation for the product; The enterprise has transferred the legal ownership of the product to the customer, that is, the customer already owns the legal ownership of the product;The enterprise has transferred the commodity in kind to the customer, that is, the customer has physically possessed the commodity; The enterprise has transferred the main risks and rewards of the ownership of the commodity to the customer, that is, the customer has obtained the main risks and rewards of the ownership of the commodity; The customer has accepted the product; Other indications that the customer has obtained control of the goods. 4.37.2 Methods of revenue recognition used by the Company (a) Revenue recognized by the Company at a point in time in the control over assets For the foreign sale of seine fish, the Company uses sales contracts and settlement contracts as the basis, recognizes the change of ownership based on the date of settlement contracts, and then recognizes revenue accordingly. TMost of the Company’s fish from long-line fishing is transported back to China for sale. Sales contracts and settlement contracts are used as the basis. The Company recognizes the change of ownership based on the date of 105 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 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. The Company delivers goods based on shipping notes issued by the sales department and confirmed by the warehouse department. After clients acknowledge receipt, the Company will recognize revenue. Processing of aquatic products for foreign sale by the Company: After receiving purchase orders from foreign clients, the international trade department will issue export shipment confirmations and arrange the storage and transport department to prepare the goods. The Company will revenue sales revenue based on shipping notes, packing lists, customs declaration forms, and other export documents. (b) Revenue recognized by the Company by performance period: The Company’s revenue from cold storage: After receiving orders from clients and after the goods are put in storage, the warehouse department will issue warehouse warrants to clients to confirm the specific names, specifications, pieces, weight, and storage dates. 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. 4.38 Government grants Government grants are the monetary assets and non-monetary assets received from the government without consideration to be paid which are not including the capital injected by the government acted as an owner role. 4.38.1 Judgment basis and accounting treatment method of government grants related to assets If the government documents explicitly state that the government grants will be used to establish or form long-term assets, the government grants will be classified as government grants related to assets. Government grants related to assets are recognized as deferred income. They are amortized in profit or loss for each period over the related assets' estimated useful period on a systematic basis. If the relevant assets are sold, transferred, scrapped or damaged before the end of their useful life, the undistributed balance of relevant deferred income shall be transferred to the profit and loss of the current period of asset disposal. Government grants related to the Company's routine operation will be recorded in other income based on the nature of its economic substance and government grants not related to the Company's routine operation will be recorded in non-operating income or expenses. 4.38.2 Judgment basis and accounting treatment method of government grants related to income Except those grants which are classified as government grants related to assets, other government grants are classified as government grants related to income. If there is no explicit subsidy object in the government document, the portion related to long-term assets will be classified as government grants related to assets and the rest portion will be classified as government grants related to income. If the grant related to income is a compensation for related expenses or losses to be incurred in subsequent periods, the grant is recognized as deferred income, and amortized in profit or loss over the periods in which the related costs 106 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. are recognized. If the grant related to income is a compensation for related expenses or losses already incurred, the grant is recognized directly in profit or loss for the current period. Government grants related to the Company's routine operation will be recorded in other income based on the nature of its economic substance and government grants not related to the Company's routine operation will be recorded in non-operating income or expenses. If the company obtains policy-based preferential loan discounts, it shall distinguish two situations when the finance allocates the discounted funds to the lending bank and the finance directly allocates the discounted funds to the enterprise: When a bank receives the discount interest fund from the financial sector and then provides a loan to the Company with preferential interest rate, the Company accounts for the loan at the actual received amount and related interest expenses will be calculated based on the principal and the preferential interest rate. When the Company receives the discount interest fund from the financial sector directly, the discount interest fund will be deducted from related borrowing cost. 4.38.3 The recognition timing for government grants If the government subsidy is a monetary asset, the company will recognize it when it meets the conditions attached to the government subsidy and is actually received; if the government subsidy is a non-monetary asset, the company recognizes the government subsidy when it obtains the control right of the non-monetary asset. Among them, non- monetary assets are measured at fair value; if the fair value cannot be obtained reliably, it is measured at the nominal amount. When the confirmed government grant needs to be returned, if there is a relevant deferred income balance, the book balance of the relevant deferred income will be offset, and the excess will be included in the current profit and loss; if there is no relevant deferred income, it will be directly included in the current profit and loss. 4.39 Deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability Income tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Temporary differences arising from the difference between the carrying amount of an asset or liability (asset or liability not recognized in balance sheet but the tax base is ascertained by the current tax laws and regulation, the tax base is the temporary difference) and its tax base are recognized as deferred tax calculating by the effective tax rate in the expected period to receive the asset or discharge the liability. On the basis of calculating and determining the current income tax (that is, the income tax payable in the current period) and the deferred income tax expenses (or gains), the sum of the two is recognized as the income tax expenses (or gains) in the income statement, but Excludes income tax effects of transactions or events that are directly included in owners' equity. On the balance sheet date, review the book value of deferred tax assets. If it is probable that sufficient taxable profits will not be available in future periods to allow the benefit of the deferred tax asset to be utilized, the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset is reduced. 4.40 Leases A lease is a contract that transfers or acquires the right to control the use of one or more identified assets for a specified period in exchange for or payment of consideration. At the inception date of a contract, assess whether the contract is or contains a lease. 107 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 4.40.1 Company as the lessee The main categories of leased assets are office buildings and cold storage. 4.40.1.1 Initially measured On the commencement date of the lease term, the right to use the leased asset during the lease term is recognized as a right-of-use asset, and the present value of the unpaid lease payments is recognized as a lease liability (except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets). When calculating the present value of lease payments, the interest rate implicit in the lease is used as the discount rate; if the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be determined, the incremental borrowing rate of the lessee is used as the discount rate. 4.40.1.2 Subsequently measured With reference to the relevant depreciation provisions of "Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 4 - Fixed Assets", the right-of-use assets are depreciated (see Note IV. 27 "Right-of-use assets"), and it can be reasonably determined that the ownership of the leased assets will be obtained when the lease term expires. Depreciation is accrued over the remaining useful life of the leased asset. If it cannot be reasonably determined that the ownership of the leased asset can be obtained at the expiration of the lease term, depreciation shall be accrued within the shorter of the lease term and the remaining useful life of the leased asset. For lease liabilities, the interest expense in each period of the lease term is calculated at a fixed periodic interest rate, and is included in the current profit and loss or included in the cost of relevant assets. Variable lease payments that are not included in the measurement of lease liabilities are included in the current profit and loss or the cost of related assets when they are actually incurred. 4.40.1.3 After the lease commencement date, when there is a change in the actual fixed payment amount, a change in the estimated payable amount of the guaranteed residual value, a change in the index or ratio used to determine the lease payment amount, a purchase option, a lease renewal option or a termination option When there is a change in the assessment result or the actual exercise of the option, the company re-measures the lease liability according to the present value of the changed lease payments, and adjusts the book value of the right-of-use asset accordingly. If the book value of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero, but the lease liability still needs to be further reduced, the remaining amount shall be included in the current profit and loss. 4.40.1.4 Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets For short-term leases (leases with a term of less than 12 months on the lease commencement date) and leases of low- value assets, a simplified approach is adopted, and the right to use assets and lease liabilities are not recognized. The Company recognizes lease payments for operating leases in profit or loss applying a straight-line basis in each period over the lease term. The Company capitalized the initial direct expenses incurred which are amortizes in profit or loss over the lease term on the same recognition basis as the lease income. 108 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. 4.40.2 Company as lessor On the lease inception date, based on the substance of the transaction, leases are classified into finance leases and operating leases. A finance lease is a lease that substantially transfers substantially all the risks and rewards associated with ownership of the leased asset. Operating leases refer to leases other than finance leases. 4.40.2.1 Operating lease The Company recognizes lease payments for operating leases in profit or loss applying a straight-line basis in each period over the lease term. Variable lease payments related to operating leases that are not included in lease receipts are included in profit or loss for the current period when they are actually incurred. 4.40.2.2 Finance lease On the commencement date of the lease period, the financial lease receivables are recognized and the financial lease assets are derecognized. The financial lease receivables are initially measured with the net investment in the lease (the sum of the unguaranteed residual value and the present value of the lease receipts not yet received at the start date of the lease term, discounted at the interest rate embedded in the lease), and the interest income during the lease period is calculated and recognized at a fixed periodic interest rate. The variable lease payments obtained that are not included in the net lease investment measurement are included in the current profit and loss when they are actually incurred. 4.40.2.3 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. 4.41 Other Important Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimations 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.

The 110 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. information during the comparable period was not adjusted. This accounting policy change has no impact on the Company’s financial statements. 4.43 Significant accounting judgments and estimates In the process of applying accounting policies, the company needs to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the book value of statement items that cannot be accurately measured due to the inherent uncertainty of operating activities. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are made based on the past historical experience of the company's management and taking into account other relevant factors. These judgments, estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the balance sheet date. However, the actual results caused by the uncertainty of these estimates may differ from the current estimates of the company's management, resulting in significant adjustments to the carrying amounts of the assets or liabilities affected in the future. The company regularly reviews the aforementioned judgments, estimates and assumptions on a going concern basis. If the change in accounting estimates only affects the current period of the change, the amount of impact will be recognized in the current period of the change; if it affects both the current period of the change and the future period, the affected amount shall be confirmed in the current period of the change and the future period. On the balance sheet date, the important areas where the company needs to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the amounts of financial statement items are as follows: (1) Revenue recognition As stated in Note IV.37, “Revenue”, the recognition of revenue involves the following significant accounting judgments and estimates: Estimate the recoverability of consideration to which the customer is entitled for the transfer of goods to the customer: Enterprises mainly rely on past experience and work to make judgments. These major judgments and changes in estimates may have an impact on operating income, operating costs, and profit or loss in the current or subsequent periods of the change, and may have a significant impact. (2) Significant accounting judgments and estimates related to leases ① Identification of lease When a company identifies whether a contract is a lease or contains a lease, it needs to assess whether there is an identified asset and the customer controls the right-of-use the asset for a certain period of time. In assessing, it is necessary to consider the nature of the asset, substantive substitution rights, and whether the customer is entitled to substantially all of the economic benefits arising from the use of the asset during that period and is able to direct the use of the asset. ② Classification of lease When a company acts as a lessor, it classifies leases as operating leases and finance leases. When classifying, management needs to make analysis and judgment on whether all risks and rewards related to the ownership of leased assets have been substantially transferred to the lessee. 111 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. ③ Lease liabilities When the company is the lessee, the lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments on the commencement date of the lease term. In measuring the present value of lease payments, the company estimates the discount rate to use and the lease term of lease contracts for which renewal or termination options exist. When evaluating the lease term, the company comprehensively considers all relevant facts and circumstances that bring economic benefits from the exercise of the option by the company, including expected changes in facts and circumstances from the commencement date of the lease term to the date when the option is exercised. Different judgments and estimates may affect the recognition of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets, and will affect profit or loss in subsequent periods. (3) Impairment of financial instruments The company uses the expected credit loss model to evaluate the impairment of financial instruments. The application of the expected credit loss model requires major judgments and estimates, and all reasonable and evidence-based information, including forward-looking information, must be considered. When making such judgments and estimates, the company infers the expected changes in the debtor's credit risk based on historical repayment data combined with economic policies, macroeconomic indicators, industry risks and other factors. (4) Provision for inventory depreciation According to the inventory accounting policy, the company measures at the lower of cost and net realizable value. For inventories whose cost is higher than net realizable value and obsolete and slow-moving inventory, provision for inventory depreciation is made. The impairment of inventories to net realizable value is based on an assessment of the marketability of inventories and their net realisable value. Identifying the impairment of inventories requires management to make judgments and estimates on the basis of obtaining conclusive evidence and considering factors such as the purpose of holding inventories and the impact of events after the balance sheet date. The difference between the actual result and the original estimate will affect the book value of inventories and the accrual or reversal of the provision for impairment of inventories in the period in which the estimate is changed. (5) Provision for impairment of long-term assets On the balance sheet date, the company judges whether there are signs of possible impairment of non-current assets other than financial assets. For intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, in addition to the annual impairment test, when there is an indication of impairment, the impairment test is also performed. Other non-current assets other than financial assets shall be tested for impairment when there is an indication that their carrying amount is unrecoverable. When the book value of the asset or asset group is higher than the recoverable amount, that is, the higher of the net amount after the fair value minus disposal costs and the present value of the expected future cash flow, it indicates that an impairment has occurred. The net amount after the fair value minus disposal costs is determined by reference to the sale agreement price or observable market price of similar assets in an arm's length transaction, minus the incremental cost that can be directly attributable to the disposal of the asset. When estimating the present value of future cash flows, it is necessary to make significant judgments on the output, selling price, relevant operating costs and the discount rate used in calculating the present value of the asset (or asset 112 Full text of the annual report of 2022, Shandong Zhonglu Oceanic Fisheries Co., Ltd. group). When estimating the recoverable amount, the company will use all relevant information that can be obtained, including the forecast of production, selling price and related operating costs based on reasonable and supportable assumptions. (6) Depreciation and amortization After considering the residual value of investment real estate, fixed assets and intangible assets, the company accrues depreciation and amortization on a straight-line basis within their useful lives. The company periodically reviews the useful life to determine the amount of depreciation and amortization that will be charged to each reporting period. The useful life is determined by the company based on past experience with similar assets combined with expected technological updates. Depreciation and amortization expense is adjusted in future periods if there are material changes from previous estimates. (7) Deferred tax assets To the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits to offset the losses, the company recognizes deferred 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 tax planning strategies to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that should be recognized. (8) Income tax In the normal business activities of the company, there are certain uncertainties in the final tax treatment and calculation of some transactions. Whether some items can be listed as disbursements before tax requires the approval of the tax authorities. If there is a difference between the final determination result of these tax matters and the initially estimated amount, the difference will have an impact on the current income tax and deferred income tax during the final determination period. (9) Internal retirement benefits and supplementary retirement benefits The company's internal retirement benefits and supplementary retirement benefits expenses and liabilities are determined based on various assumptions. These assumptions include discount rate, growth rate of average medical expenses, growth rate of subsidies for internal retirees and retirees and other factors.
