Development stage and cyclical characteristic of the industry in which the Company operates and its industry position during the Reporting Period (1) External economic environment In the first half of 2021, major economies such as the United States and Europe have eased the pandemic and accelerated vaccination. Despite the recurring pandemic situations in some European and American countries and developing countries, the global economy has recovered and continued to recover amidst fluctuations because of the fiscal and monetary stimulus policies generally adopted by various countries and the resumption of industrial production and consumption activities. Among them, the production side was gradually approaching the level before the pandemic, while the consumption side was accelerating recovery, with the trade in goods and services continued to grow steadily. According to the “World Economic Outlook” report published by the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”) in July 2021, the global economy in 2021 was expected to grow by 6%, representing a year-on-year increase of 9.2 percentage points. Among that, growth forecasts for developed economies were adjusted upwards and they were projected to grow by 5.6%, up by 10.2 percentage points year-on-year, while growth prospects in emerging markets and developing economies deteriorated and they were expected to grow by 6.3%, up by 8.4 percentage points year- on-year. Besides, according to the forecast of the World Trade Organization (WTO) in April, global trade will increase by 8% in 2021 due to the rapid promotion of vaccines and the strong government intervention in the economy. Benefiting from the good results of pandemic prevention and control and the support of the "Six Stabilities"(六穩) and "Six Security"(六保) policies, China's macro economy recovered steadily and tended to be balanced in the first half of 2021. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, China's GDP was RMB53.2167 trillion in the first half of 2021, up by 12.7% year-on-year at comparable prices. In terms of quarters, the first quarter increased by 18.3% year-on-year, and the second quarter by 7.9%. On the other hand, benefiting from the recovery of the global economy in the first half of 2021, China's monthly import and export have achieved positive year-on-year 11 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2021 growth for 13 consecutive months, further consolidating the steady growth of foreign trade. According to the statistics published by the General Administration of Customs, the total value of China's import and export of goods trade in the first half of 2021 was RMB18.07 trillion, representing an increase of 27.1% as compared to that of the corresponding period in 2020, among which the export value was RMB9.8493 trillion, up by 28.1% year-on-year, and the import value was RMB8.2157 trillion, up by 25.9% year-on-year. With the export value offsetting by import value, the trade surplus was RMB1.6336 trillion. (2) Market environment of port and shipping industry Since 2021, with the widespread use of the vaccination against COVID-19, pandemic prevention and control in United States and European countries have been steadily improving, and the demand for global trade in goods has rebounded, inceasing the demand in the martime transport market. However, while export demand continues to increase, the backflow of empty containers in European and American ports is slow due to the impact of the pandemic, coupled with the "black swan events" such as the Suez Canal blockage and the pandemic in Yantian Port, resulting in ship delay, port congestion, route adjustments, etc. from time to time. The distribution of containers is partially unbalanced, and the effective shipping capacity continues to decline, and the price of shipping in the international market continues to rise. According to the Drewry World Container Index, shipping price in the first half of 2021 has set the largest increase record since 2012, and the freight rate has increased by more than 300% compared with that of the same period in 2020. Due to gradual recovery of the global trade , in the first half of 2021, the overall operations of the port industry are in good condition, and port throughput and berth occupancy rate continued to rise. From a national perspective, the global demand and supply gap in the first half of 2021 led to the increase in China's export. The container throughput of major ports showed a rapid growth trend. According to the data published by the Ministry of Transport, in the first half of 2021, the accumulated cargo throughput handled by the Chinese ports reached 7.64334 billion tonnes, up by 13.2% year-on-year, and the accumulated container throughput handled was 138.18 million TEUs, 12 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2021 representing an increase of 15.0% year-on-year, of which, 4.96313 billion tonnes of cargo were handled by coastal ports, representing a year-on-year increase of 10.3%, and totally 121.98 million TEUs were handled by coastal ports, representing a year-on-year increase of 14.0%. With regard to innovative development, new opportunities in the industry continue to emerge, and new outlets such as digitization, carbon neutralization, and new infrastructure have brought new impetus to the transformation and development of the industry. (3) The position of the Company in the industry The port industry is a crucial cornerstone industry for national economic and social development, and is closely linked to global economy and trade. The Company is the largest port developer, investor and operator in the PRC and the leading comprehensive port service provider in the world, with a well-developed port network at major hub locations along coastal China. It has also successfully established presences in Asia, Africa, Europe, Oceania, South America and North America. By its proactive, sound and efficient operating style, the Company capitalizes on its global port portfolio, professional management experience, the self-developed state-of-the-art terminal operation system and integrated logistics management platform for exports and imports to provide timely and efficient port and maritime logistics services along with comprehensive and modern integrated logistics solutions to its customers. In addition, the Company also invests in bonded logistics operation, launches integrated park development business, facilitates the transformation and upgrade of port industry, and develops port supporting industries, dedicated to improving industry efficiency and creating greater value through the synergies of the existing terminal network. II. Core competitiveness analysis 1. Sound shareholder background and resource integration ability Established in 1872, which is 149 years ago, CMG, the actual controller of the Company, has become an exemplary model for Chinese enterprises and developed strong brand power. It is also a key state-owned enterprise under the direct administration of the PRC central government. 13 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2021 Headquartered in Hong Kong, CMG is an integrated enterprise with diversified businesses and one of the four major Chinese enterprises in Hong Kong. Currently, it is mainly engaged in three core industries namely comprehensive transportation, characteristic finance, and comprehensive development and operation of cities and parks, and is realizing the transformation from the three main businesses to the three major platforms of industrial operation, financial services, investment and capital operation. CMG has been rated as a Grade A enterprise in the Operating Results Assessment of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council for 17 consecutive years and is a central state-owned enterprise that owns two Fortune 500 companies. Being a crucial player and facilitator of the national “Belt and Road” initiative, CMG has accelerated its international development and preliminarily formed a relatively complete network of overseas ports, logistics, finance, and park business. The sound shareholder background and ample domestic and overseas resources integration ability of CMG have provided strong support for CMPort to construct a global port investment and operation platform with international vision and global expansion capabilities and to stand out in the fierce global competition. 2. Balanced and established global port network presence ability As an important carrier for domestic and overseas port investment and operation of CMG, the Company gained in-depth insight into the current states, trends and driving factors of the global industrial chain. Based on the insight, it followed the development patterns of the global economy and trade and the industry, and seized the significant policy opportunities arising from the key “Belt and Road” initiative and the development of key regions such as the Guangdong-Hong Kong- Macao Greater Bay Area and the integration of Yangtze River Delta to actively build a global port network and arrange for the investment and allocation of global resources. In recent years, through mergers, acquisitions, reorganization, renovation of old ports, and construction of new ports, the Company has been consistently optimizing its modern port network 14 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2021 with global coverage, enhancing the value of the port industry, and pushing forward balanced regional development. After years of overseas development, CMPort has established global business presence. Its port network comprises 50 ports which are located in 26 countries and regions on six continents. Adhering to the principle of “extensive consultation, joint development and shared benefits”, CMPort has developed local-based business operation and formed a community of shared future with stakeholders from countries and regions along the “Belt and Road” initiative to explore development opportunities with concerted efforts. At the same time, the diversified investment and operation of port assets at home and abroad have also effectively enhanced its capabilities of resisting risks of industry fluctuations, trade fictions and unexpected events. 3. Continuously optimizing supply chain comprehensive service ability The Company is committed to becoming a world-class comprehensive port service provider and centers on many aspects to continue to optimize the comprehensive service capabilities of the supply chain. The first aspect is the advanced comprehensive development capabilities. Taking port business as the core and leveraging the synergy of different port zones as well as city industry integration, the Company is actively exploring and facilitating the comprehensive port development model of “Port-Park-City”. Based on the traditional loading and discharging and ancillary services at ports, it established the comprehensive development model that offered high value-added services to enterprises. Currently, the Company has participated in promoting the port-oriented regional comprehensive development and construction in various overseas regions and has achieved phased progresses, fostering new profit growth points for the Company. The second aspect is sound comprehensive logistics service capabilities. The Company aims at increasing its global presence with shipping routes across five continents. As both the shipping and port sectors gradually shifted to forming alliances, the Company is actively integrating its domestic and overseas supply chain resources and centering on customer needs to provide more comprehensive and effective integrated logistics service solutions for the global supply chain, forming its unique competitive strength. 15 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2021 Based on the West Shenzhen homebase port and the Shunde New Port, it built the first complex port in the Greater Bay Area to meet the unsatisfied customer needs, promoting the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. The Company also secured the international supply chain and supply for people’s livelihood in the country through serving domestic and foreign trade business, thereby accelerating the formation of China’s new development pattern, the domestic economic cycle as the mainstay and the domestic and international economic cycles boosting each other. 4. Independent and innovative smart port construction ability Grasping the development opportunities of the new technology wave, the Company proactively pushed forward the construction of smart ports and promoted the digital transformation and intelligent upgrade of ports through “CM Chip” and “CM ePort”. “CM Chip” is a core port operating system independently developed and built by the Company, including CTOS (Container Terminal Operation System), BTOS (Bulk Cargo Terminal Operation System), and LPOS (Logistics Park Operation System). At present, the “CM Chip” series of products independently developed by the Company have been basically applied to domestic and overseas terminals controlled by the Company, laying a solid foundation for the Company's smart port construction. “CM ePort” is a digital integrated service ecological platform based on the Company's global port network and targeted at the port logistics industry, integrating ports, shipping, logistics and third-party e- commerce platforms and providing smart logistics, smart ports and smart finance and business services to help build a smart port ecosystem. The Company took the transformation project of Haixing Harbor as a pilot, and successfully built " Mawan Smart Port" by centering on 9 smart elements such as “CM Chip”, “CM ePort”, automation technology, smart port, 5G network application, blockchain, Beidou system, artificial intelligence application, and green and low-carbon development, and " Mawan Smart Port" has become China's first automated terminal upgraded from a traditional terminal, forming a comprehensive solution for smart ports with " CMPort’s characteristics". 16 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2021 5. Sound and efficient port management ability Adhering to the proactive, sound and efficient operating style and benefiting from its global port assets and resources portfolio, the Company is committed to providing customers with timely and efficient port and maritime logistics services as well as professional and first-class solutions, and has become the preferred partner for customers and an important gateway for the country’s foreign trade, thereby making due contributions to the country’s foreign trade development. At the same time, the Company also made an extensive investment in bonded logistics business to expand its port value chain and enhance industrial value. Taking advantages of the synergy of its existing terminal network, the Company created values for both its customers and shareholders. The Company has earned itself good reputation across the industry by its professional management experience accumulated for years, its self-developed global leading terminal operating system and integrated logistics management platform for import and export, its extensive maritime logistics support system with all-rounded modern integrated logistics solutions, and its high-quality engineering management and reliable service offerings.

IX Structured Bodies Controlled by the Company □ Applicable √ Not applicable X. Risks faced by the Company and counter measures 1. Risk of macroeconomic fluctuations Internationally, the world economic situation in 2021 is still complex and severe, the recovery is unstable and uneven, and various derivative risks caused by the impact of the pandemic cannot be ignored. In the first half of the year, the pandemic in Europe and the United States eased and vaccination was accelerated, but the pandemic in Asia repeated. The world's top 10 developed countries possess 80% of the world's COVID-19 vaccines. The uneven distribution of global COVID-19 vaccines has increased the uncertainty and imbalance of the global economic recovery. Following the pandemic, the new round of easing monetary policies will increase global debt level and emerging markets’ economy will become more vulnerable. Traditional and non-traditional risks, 33 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2021 such as natural disasters and geopolitical uncertainties, may aggregate volatility in the international financial market. Such risks of uncertainties will impact China’s foreign trade market, container shipping market, and bulk commodity demand, and pose certain challenges to the Company’s overseas investment and planning. Domestically, China’s economic growth still faces uncertainties as a result of the pandemic, the Sino-US friction, and the effectiveness of vaccination, and the foundation for its economic recovery is not that firm. In the first half of the year, due to the continued impact of the pandemic, the domestic consumer industry was still relatively weak in driving the economic growth, which put a certain amount of pressure on the recovery process of domestic business and trade. In addition, the pandemic has accelerated the implementation of technological innovation policies on national level and amplified the urgency of the digital upgrade in the port and shipping industry. Facing the risk of macroeconomic fluctuations, especially the risks imposed on foreign trade and import and export business by the COVID-19 pandemic, exchange rate fluctuations and other factors, the Company will take the initiative to identify and respond to changes. Firstly, it will work in full swing to implement the national 14th Five-year Plan and achieve high-quality growth by facilitating transformation and upgrade of port industry. Secondly, it will follow the “Belt and Road” initiative and the national strategies on building a strong transportation country, the Guangdong- Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and the integrated development of Yangtze River Delta, so as to help construct the new national dual circulation development regime. Thirdly, it will seize the opportunities arising from a new round of high-level opening-up policies to continuously improve service quality of ports under the economic globalization trend. Fourthly, it will enhance capacity building in respect of risk identification, warning, and solving, and continue to research and follow up on the development trend in the global industrial chain and trade movements and adjust the Company’s business operating strategies appropriately, in order to effectively prevent, control, and reduce external risks. 34 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2021 2. Policy risks The policy risks in the port industry can be either positive or negative to the industry. On the one hand, under the new regime of dual circulation development, policies such as encouraging the expansion of imports are expected to bring new opportunities to the development of the industry, and at the same time, national strategies such as the “Belt and Road” initiative and the Guangdong- Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area will introduce favorable policies to the industrial development; On the other hand, policies and initiatives of the government for reducing costs and improving efficiency in logistics, anti-monopoly, and environmental protection may put pressure on the profitability of the port industry. Facing the policy risks that might exist, on one hand, the Company will strengthen policy research and proactively practice the “Belt and Road” initiative and a series of national strategies to seize firmly the opportunities arising from these policies; On the other hand, in response to the negative risks, the Company will improve its operation management capability and the sustainable profitability by continuously enhancing quality and efficiency and strengthening resource allocation. 3. Operation management risks Under the favorable environment of domestic and overseas regional ports integration, the Company has swiftly strengthened its principal port business and successfully further optimized the network of domestic and overseas ports. However, the Company also faces unfavorable conditions, such as increased difficulties in operation and management of ports in certain regions, relatively low investment returns, and etc: (1) Investment decision-making of some projects will continue to be riskier and more difficult under the increasingly complicated external environment; (2) In the first half of the year, international exchange rate fluctuations intensified. The RMB exchange rate rose and fell, and the two-way fluctuation characteristics became more obvious. In this regard, the Company is working hard to form an exchange rate risk management and control mechanism to timely adjust response strategies according to exchange rate fluctuations, thus minimizing the 35 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2021 impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the Company’s performance. (3) The Company’s internationalized operation management system still needs to be improved and the benefits of integration are to be enhanced through management output and other ways to accommodate with the Company’s rapid development and expansion; (4) The risk control system needs to be continuously developed and optimized to constantly improve management efficiency. In terms of the Company’s internal operation management risks, the Company will: (1) increase customer loyalty and seize market opportunities based on three improvement elements, namely “market, resources, services”; (2) improve internal control system to take further precautions in risk control and reinforce the stringent restrictions of internal control, ensuring effective risk identification and control and consolidating the foundation of risk control; and (3) optimize risk warning system to precisely keep abreast of the new developments with an aim to seize the opportunities while ensuring risk control. 36 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd.

On 30 June 2021, the Group had available and unused line of credit amounting to RMB 44,924,971,453.51, which is greater than the balance of the net current liabilities. The Group can obtain financial support from the available line of credit when needed. Therefore, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Basis of accounting and principle of measurement The Group has adopted the accrual basis of accounting. Except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value, the Group adopts the historical cost as the principle of measurement of the financial statements. Upon being restructured into a stock company, the fixed assets and intangible assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on the valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department. Where assets are impaired, provisions for asset impairment are made in accordance with the relevant requirements. Where the historical cost is adopted as the measurement basis, assets are recorded at the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the consideration given to acquire them at the time of their acquisition. Liabilities are recorded at the amount of proceeds or assets received or -9- CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 the contractual amounts for assuming the present obligation, or, at the amounts of cash or cash equivalents expected to be paid to settle the liabilities in the normal course of business. - 10 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 II. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued Basis of accounting and principle of measurement - continued Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using valuation technique. Fair value measurement and/or disclosure in the financial statements are determined according to the above basis. Fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows: Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date; Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The accounting treatment of business combinations involving or not involving enterprises under common control Business combinations are classified into business combinations involving enterprises under common control and business combinations not involving enterprises under common control. 5.1 Business combinations involving enterprises under common control A business combination involving enterprises under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining enterprises are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the combination, and that control is not transitory. Assets and liabilities obtained shall be measured at their respective carrying amounts as recorded by the combining entities at the date of the combination. The difference between the carrying amount of the net assets obtained and the carrying amount of the consideration paid for the combination is adjusted to the share premium in capital reserve. If the share premium is not sufficient to absorb the difference, any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings. Costs that are directly attributable to the combination are charged to profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. 5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill A business combination not involving enterprises under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining enterprises are not ultimately controlled by the same party or parties before and after the combination. The cost of combination is the aggregate of the fair values, at the acquisition date, of the assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued by the acquirer, in exchange for control of the acquire. Where a business combination not involving enterprises under common control is achieved in stages that involve multiple transactions, the cost of combination is the sum of the consideration paid at the acquisition date and the fair value at the acquisition date of the acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree. The intermediary expenses (fees in respect of auditing, legal services, valuation and consultancy services, etc.) and other administrative expenses attributable to the business combination are recognized in profit or loss in the periods when they are incurred. - 12 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

The accounting treatment of business combinations involving or not involving enterprises under common control - continued 5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill - continued The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired by the acquirer in a business combination that meet the recognition criteria shall be measured at fair value at the acquisition date. When a business combination contract provides for the acquirer's recovery of consideration previously paid contingent on one or multiple future event(s), the Group recognizes the contingent consideration provided in the contract as an asset, as part of the consideration transferred in the business combination, and includes it in the cost of business combination at the fair value at the acquisition date. Within 12 months after the acquisition, where the contingent consideration needs to be adjusted as new or further evidences are obtained in respect of the circumstances existed at the acquisition date, the adjustment shall be recognized and the amount originally recognized in goodwill or non-operating income shall be adjusted. A change in or adjustment to the contingent consideration under other circumstances shall be accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standard for Business Enterprise No. 22 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 13 - Contingencies. Any change or adjustment is included in profit or loss for the current period. Where the cost of combination exceeds the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets, the difference is treated as an asset and recognized as goodwill, which is measured at cost on initial recognition. Where the cost of combination is less than the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets, the acquirer reassesses the measurement of the fair values of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities and measurement of the cost of combination. If after that reassessment, the cost of combination is still less than the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets, the acquirer recognizes the remaining difference immediately in profit or loss for the current period. If either the fair values of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired in a combination or the cost of business combination can be determined only provisionally by the end of the period in which the business combination was effected, the acquirer recognizes and measures the combination using those provisional values. Any adjustments to those provisional values within twelve months after the acquisition date are treated as if they had been recognized and measured on the acquisition date. Goodwill arising on a business combination is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses, and is presented separately in the consolidated financial statements. - 13 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Preparation of consolidated financial statements 6.1 Preparation of consolidated financial statements The scope of consolidation in the consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis of control. Control exists when the investor has power over the investee; is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes of the above elements of the definition of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiaries and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. For a subsidiary already disposed of by the Group, the operating results and cash flows before the date of disposal (the date when control is lost) are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of cash flows, as appropriate. For subsidiaries acquired through a business combination involving enterprises not under common control, the operating results and cash flows from the acquisition date (the date when control is obtained) are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of cash flows, as appropriate. No matter when the business combination occurs in the reporting period, subsidiaries acquired through a business combination involving enterprises under common control or the party being absorbed under merger by absorption are included in the Group's scope of consolidation as if they had been included in the scope of consolidation from the date when they first came under the common control of the ultimate controlling party. Their operating results and cash flows from the date when they first came under the common control of the ultimate controlling party are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of cash flows, as appropriate. The significant accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by the subsidiaries are determined based on the uniform accounting policies and accounting periods set out by the Company. Where the accounting policies / accounting periods adopted by subsidiaries are inconsistent with those of the Company, appropriate adjustments are made to the subsidiaries' financial statements in accordance with the accounting policies of the Company. All significant intra-group balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation. - 14 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 6. Preparation of consolidated financial statements - continued 6.1 Preparation of consolidated financial statements - continued The portion of subsidiaries' equity that is not attributable to the parent is treated as minority interests and presented as "minority interests" in the consolidated balance sheet under shareholders' equity. The portion of net profits or losses of subsidiaries for the period attributable to minority interests is presented as "minority interests" in the consolidated income statement under the "net profit" line item. When the amount of loss for the period attributable to the minority shareholders of a subsidiary exceeds the minority shareholders' portion of the opening balance of shareholders' equity of the subsidiary, the excess amount is still allocated against minority interests. Acquisition of minority interests or disposals of interests in a subsidiary that do not result in the loss of control over the subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the parent's interests and minority interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. The difference between the amount by which the minority interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is adjusted to capital reserve. If the capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the excess are adjusted against retained earnings. For the stepwise acquisition of equity interest till acquiring control after a few transactions and leading to business combination not involving enterprises under common control, this should be dealt with based on whether this belongs to 'package deal': if it belongs to 'package deal', transactions will be dealt as transactions to acquire control. If it does not belong to 'package deal', transactions to acquire control on acquisition date will be under accounting treatment, the fair value of acquirees' shares held before acquisition date will be revalued, and the difference between fair value and book value will be recognized in profit or loss of the current period; if acquirees' shares held before acquisition date involve in changes of other comprehensive income and other equity of owners under equity method, this will be transferred to income of acquisition date. When the Group loses control over a subsidiary due to disposal of equity investment or other reasons, any retained interest is remeasured at its fair value at the date when control is lost. The difference between (i) the aggregate of the consideration received on disposal and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the share of the former subsidiary's net assets cumulatively calculated from the acquisition date according to the original proportion of ownership interests is recognized as investment income in the period in which control is lost, and the goodwill is offset accordingly. Other comprehensive income associated with investment in the former subsidiary is reclassified to investment income in the period in which control is lost. - 15 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 6. Preparation of consolidated financial statements - continued 6.1 Preparation of consolidated financial statements - continued When the Group loses control of a subsidiary in two or more arrangements (transactions), terms and conditions of the arrangements (transactions) and their economic effects are considered. One or more of the following indicate that the Group shall account for the multiple arrangements as a 'package deal': (i) they are entered into at the same time or in contemplation of each other; (ii) they form a complete transaction designed to achieve an overall commercial effect; (iii) the occurrence of one transaction is dependent on the occurrence of at least one other transaction; (iv) one transaction alone is not economically justified, but it is economically justified when considered together with other transactions. Where the transactions of disposal of equity investments in a subsidiary until the loss of control are assessed as a package deal, these transactions are accounted for as one transaction of disposal of a subsidiary with loss of control. Before losing control, the difference of consideration received on disposal and the share of net assets of the subsidiary continuously calculated from acquisition date is recognized as other comprehensive income. When losing control, the cumulated other comprehensive income is transferred to profit or loss of the period of losing control. If the transactions of disposal of equity investments in a subsidiary are not assessed as a package deal, these transactions are accounted for as unrelated transactions. 7. Types of joint arrangements and the accounting treatment of joint operation There are two types of joint arrangements - joint operations and joint ventures. The classification of joint arrangements under is determined based on the rights and obligations of parties to the joint arrangements by considering the structure, the legal form of the arrangements, the contractual terms agreed by the parties to the arrangement. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method by the Group, which is detailed in Notes (III) 16.3.2, A long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method The Group as a joint operator recognizes the following items in relation to its interest in a joint operation: (1) its solely-held assets, including its share of any assets held jointly; (2) its solely- assumed liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly; (3) its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; (4) its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and (5) its solely-incurred expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly. The Group accounts for the recognized assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to its interest in a joint operation in accordance with the requirements applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. - 16 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Recognition criteria of cash and cash equivalents Cash comprises cash on hand and deposits that can be readily withdrawn on demand. Cash equivalents are the Group's short-term(generally due within 3 months since the acquisition date), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. 9. Foreign currency transactions 9.1 Transactions denominated in foreign currencies A foreign currency transaction is recorded, on initial recognition, by applying the spot exchange rate on the date of the transaction. At the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated into functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from the differences between the spot exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date and those on initial recognition or at the previous balance sheet date are recognized in profit or loss for the period, except that (1) exchange differences related to a specific-purpose borrowing denominated in foreign currency that qualify for capitalization are capitalized as part of the cost of the qualifying asset during the capitalization period; (2) exchange differences related to hedging instruments for the purpose of hedging against foreign currency risks are accounted for using hedge accounting; (3) exchange differences arising from changes in the carrying amounts (other than the amortized cost) of monetary items at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognized as other comprehensive income. When the consolidated financial statements include foreign operation(s), if there is foreign currency monetary item constituting a net investment in a foreign operation, exchange difference arising from changes in exchange rates are recognized as "exchange differences arising on translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies " in other comprehensive income, and in profit and loss for the period upon disposal of the foreign operation. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated to the amounts in functional currency at the spot exchange rates on the dates of the transactions; the amounts in functional currency remain unchanged. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value are re-translated at the spot exchange rate on the date the fair value is determined. Difference between the re-translated functional currency amount and the original functional currency amount is treated as changes in fair value (including changes of exchange rate) and is recognized in profit and loss or as other comprehensive income. - 17 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Foreign currency transactions - continued 9.2 Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, financial statements of a foreign operation are translated from the foreign currency into RMB using the following method: assets and liabilities on the balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date; shareholders' equity items except for unappropriated profit are translated at the spot exchange rates at the dates on which such items arose; all items in the income statement as well as items reflecting the distribution of profits are translated at the average exchange rates of the accounting period of the consolidated financial statements; the opening balance of unappropriated profit is the translated closing balance of the previous year's unappropriated profit; the closing balance of unappropriated profit is calculated and presented on the basis of each translated income statement and profit distribution item. The difference between the translated assets and the aggregate of liabilities and shareholders' equity items is recognized as other comprehensive income and included in shareholders' equity. Cash flows arising from a transaction in foreign currency and the cash flows of a foreign subsidiary are translated at average exchange rate during the accounting period of consolidated financial statements. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents is regarded as a reconciling item and presented separately in the cash flow statement as "effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents". The closing balances and the comparative figures of previous year are presented at the translated amounts in the previous year's financial statements. On disposal of the Group's entire interest in a foreign operation, or upon a loss of control over a foreign operation due to disposal of certain interest in it or other reasons, the Group transfers the accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financial statements of this foreign operation attributable to the owners' equity of the Company and presented under owners' equity, to profit or loss in the period in which the disposal occurs. In case of a disposal of part equity investments or other reason leading to lower interest percentage in foreign operations but does not result in the Group losing control over a foreign operation, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financial statements are re-attributed to minority interests and are not recognized in profit and loss. For partial disposals of equity interests in foreign operations which are associates or joint ventures, the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financial statements of foreign operations is reclassified to profit or loss. - 18 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Financial instruments The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of a financial instrument. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. For financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, relevant transaction costs are directly recognized in profit or loss; transaction costs relating to other categories of financial assets and financial liabilities are included in the value initially recognized. For accounts receivable recognized that do not contain a significant financing component or a financing component included in the contracts less than one year which are not considered by the Group, which are within the scope of Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.14 - Revenue (hereinafter referred to as "revenue standards"), transaction prices defined in the standards shall be adopted on initial recognition. The effective interest method is a method that is used in the calculation of the amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability and in the allocation of the interest income or interest expense in profit or loss over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows through the expected life of the financial asset or financial liability to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset or to the amortized cost of a financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Group estimates future cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial asset or financial liability (for example, prepayment, extension, call option or similar options) but shall not consider the expected credit losses. The amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability is the amount of a financial asset or a financial liability initially recognized net of principal repaid, plus or less the cumulative amortized amount arising from amortization of the difference between the amount initially recognized and the amount at the maturity date using the effective interest method, net of cumulative credit loss allowance (only applicable to financial assets). 10.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial assets Subsequent to initial recognition, the Group's financial assets of various categories are subsequently measured at amortized cost, at fair value through other comprehensive income or at fair value through profit or loss. If contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, and the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, such asset is classified into financial assets measured at amortized cost, which include cash and bank balances, notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, debt investments, and long-term receivables and etc. - 19 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Financial assets at FVTOCI are presented as other debt investments. Other debt investments due within one year (inclusive) since the balance sheet date are presented as non-current assets due within one year. Other debt investments due within one year (inclusive) upon acquisition are presented as other current assets. On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate non-trading equity instruments, other than contingent consideration recognized through business combination not involving enterprises under common control, as financial assets at FVTOCI on an individual basis. Such financial assets at FVTOCI are presented as other equity instrument. A financial asset is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied: It has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near term; or On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Group manages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as a hedging instrument. Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") include those classified as financial assets at FVTPL and those designated as financial assets at FVTPL. Any financial assets that does not qualify for amortized cost measurement or measurement at FVTOCI or designated at FVTOCI are classified into financial assets at FVTPL. Upon initial recognition, in order to eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatch and qualified hybrid financial instrument combines financial asset with embedded derivatives, the Group will irrevocably designated it as financial liabilities at FVTPL. Financial assets at FVTPL assets other than derivative financial assets are presented as "held-for- trading financial assets". Such financial assets at FVTPL which may fall due more than one year (or without fixed term) since the balance sheet date and will be held more than one year are presented as other non-current financial assets. 10.1.1 Financial assets measured at amortized cost - 20 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Amounts charged to profit or loss for every period equal to the amount charged to profit or loss as it is measured at amortized costs. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income shall be removed from other comprehensive income and recognized in profit or loss. Changes in fair value of non-trading equity instrument investments designated as financial assets at FVTOCI are recognized in other comprehensive income, and the cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income allocated to the part derecognized are transferred and included in retained earnings. During the period in which the Group holds the non-trading equity instrument, revenue from dividends is recognized in profit or loss for the current period when (1) the Group has established the right of collecting dividends; (2) it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Group; and (3) the amount of dividends can be measured reliably. 10.1.3 Financial assets at FVTPL Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value.

The Group makes a loss allowance against amount of lifetime ECL of the contract assets, notes receivable and accounts receivable arising from transactions adopting the Revenue Standard as well as lease receivables arising from transactions adopting ASBE No. 21- Leases. For other financial instrument, other than purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, the Group assesses changes in credit risks of the relevant financial asset since initial recognition at each balance sheet date. If the credit loss of the financial instrument has been significantly increased since initial recognition, the Group will make a loss allowance at an amount of expected credit loss during the whole life; if not, the Group will make a loss allowance for the financial instrument at an amount in the future 12-month expected credit losses. Except for the financial assets classified as at FVTOCI, increase in or reversal of credit loss allowance is included in profit or loss as loss/gain on impairment. For the financial assets classified as at FVTOCI, the Group recognizes credit loss allowance in other comprehensive income and recognizes the loss/gain on impairment in profit or loss, while the Group does not decrease the carrying amount of such financial assets in the balance sheet. The Group has makes a loss allowance against amount of expected credit losses during the whole life in the prior accounting period. However, at the balance sheet date, the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition; the Group will measure the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount in the future 12-month expected credit losses. Reversed amount of loss allowance arising from such circumstances shall be included in profit or loss as impairment gains. 10.2.1 Significant increase of credit risk In assessing whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition. For loan commitments, the date that the Group becomes a party to the irrevocable commitment is considered to be the date of initial recognition in the application of criteria related to the financial instrument for impairment. In particular, the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk has increased significantly: - 23 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

(3) Significant changes in external market indicators of credit risk for a particular financial instrument or similar financial instruments with the same expected life. These indicators include the credit spread, the credit swap prices for the borrower, the length of time or the extent to which the fair value of a financial asset has been less than its amortized cost and other market information related to the borrower, such as changes in the price of a borrower's debt and equity instruments. (4) Significant changes in actual or expected external credit rating for the financial instruments; (5) An actual or expected internal credit rating downgrade for the borrower (6) Adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change in the debtor's ability to meet its debt obligations; (7) An actual or expected significant change in the operating results of the debtor; (8) Significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same borrower; (9) Significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the debtor; (10) Significant changes in the value of the collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality of third-party guarantees or credit enhancements, which are expected to reduce the debtor's economic incentive to make scheduled contractual payments or to otherwise have an effect on the probability of a default occurring. (11) Significant changes in circumstances expected to reduce the debtor's economic incentive to make scheduled contractual payments; (12) Expected changes in the loan documentation including an expected breach of contract that may lead to covenant waivers or amendments, interest payment holidays, interest rate step- ups, requiring additional collateral or guarantees, or other changes to the contractual framework of the financial instrument; (13) Significant changes in the expected performance and behavior of the debtor; (14) Changes in the entity's credit management approach in relation to the financial instrument; (15) Past due of contract payment. The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition if the financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk at the balance sheet date. A financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk if: i) it has a lower risk of default, ii) the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term and iii) adverse changes in economic and business conditions in the longer term may, but will not necessarily, reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfil its contractual cash flow obligations. - 24 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired includes but not limited to the following observable events: (1) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor; (2) A breach of contract by the debtor, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; (3) The creditor, for economic or legal reasons relating to the debtor's financial difficulty, granting a concession to the debtor; (4) It becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganizations; (5) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties of the issuer or the debtor; (6) Purchase or originate a financial asset with a large scale of discount, which reflects facts of credit loss incurred. 10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss Lease receivables are assessed for ECL individually by the Group. In addition, the Group uses provision matrix to calculate ECL for notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, contract assets, debt investments and other debt investments based on a portfolio basis. The Group classifies financial instruments into different groups based on common risk characteristics. Common credit risk characteristics include credit risk rating, the date of initial recognition, remaining contractual maturity, industry of borrower and geographical location of the borrower etc. The Group determines expected credit losses of relevant financial instruments using the following methods: For a financial asset, a credit loss is the present value of the difference between the contractual cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive; For a lease receivable, a credit loss is the present value of the difference between the contractual cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive; - 25 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Financial instruments - continued 10.2 Impairment of financial instruments - continued 10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss - continued For undrawn loan commitments (refer to Note III, 10.4.1.3 for the detail of accounting policies), the ECL is the present value of the difference between the contractual cash flows that are due to the Group if the holder of the loan commitments draws down the loan, and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive if the loan is drawn down. The Group's estimation of the ECL for loan commitments is consistent with its expectation of the loan commitments drawn down. For a financial guarantee contract (refer to Note III, 10.4.1.3 for the detail of accounting policies ), the expected losses is the present value of the expected payments to reimburse the holder for a credit loss that it incurs less any amounts that the Group expects to receive from the holder, the debtor or any other party. For a financial asset with credit-impaired at the balance sheet date, but not purchased or originated credit-impaired, a credit losses is the difference between the asset's gross carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. The factors reflected in methods of measurement of expected credit losses include an unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes; time value of money; reasonable and supportable information about past events, current conditions and forecasts on future economic status at balance sheet date without unnecessary additional costs or efforts. 10.2.4 Write-down of financial assets When the Group will no longer reasonably expect that the contractual cash flows of financial assets can be collected in aggregate or in part, the Group will directly write down the carrying amount of the financial asset, which constitutes derecognition of relevant financial assets. 10.3 Transfer of financial assets The Group will derecognize a financial asset if one of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; (ii) the financial asset has been transferred and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset is transferred to the transferee; or (iii) although the financial asset has been transferred, the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset but has not retained control of the financial asset. - 26 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 10. Financial instruments - continued 10.3 Transfer of financial assets - continued If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a financial asset, and it retains control of the financial asset, the Group will recognize the financial asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferred financial asset and recognize an associated liability. The Group will measure relevant liabilities as follows: For transferred financial assets carried at amortized cost, the carrying amount of relevant liabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvement less amortized cost of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upon transfer of financial assets) with addition of amortized cost of obligations assumed by the Group (if the Group assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Relevant liabilities are not designated as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. For transferred financial assets carried at fair value, the carrying amount of relevant financial liabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvement less fair value of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upon transfer of financial assets) with addition of fair value of obligations assumed by the Group (if the Group assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Accordingly, the fair value of relevant rights and obligations shall be measured on an individual basis. For a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that satisfies the derecognition criteria, the difference between (1) the carrying amount of the financial asset transferred and (2) the sum of the consideration received from the transfer and accumulated changes in fair value initially recorded in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss. For the non-tradable equity instrument designated as financial assets at FVTOCI, cumulative gain or loss that has been recognized in other comprehensive income should be removed from other comprehensive income but be recognized in retained earnings. For a part of transfer of a financial asset that satisfies the derecognition criteria, the carrying amount of the transferred financial asset is allocated between the part that is derecognized and the part that is continuously involved, based on the respective fair values of those parts on transfer date. The difference between (1) the sum of the consideration received for the part derecognized and any cumulative gain or loss allocated to the part derecognized which has been previously recognized in other comprehensive income; and (2) the carrying amount allocated to the part derecognized on derecognition date; is recognized in profit or loss. For the non-tradable equity instrument designated as financial assets at FVTOCI, cumulative gain or loss that has been recognized in other comprehensive income should be removed from other comprehensive income but be recognized in retained earnings. For a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that does not satisfy the derecognition criteria, the Group will continuously recognize the transferred financial asset in its entirety. Considerations received due to transfer of assets should be recognized as a liability upon receipts. - 27 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Financial instruments - continued 10.4 Classification of financial liabilities equity instruments Financial instruments issued by the Group are classified into financial liabilities or equity instruments on the basis of the substance of the contractual arrangements and the economic nature not only its legal form, together with the definition of financial liability and equity instruments on initial recognition. 10.4.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities On initial recognition, financial liabilities are classified into financial liabilities at FVTPL and other financial liabilities. 10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL Financial liabilities at FVTPL consist of financial liabilities held for trading (including derivatives classified as financial liabilities) and those designated as at FVTPL. Except for derivative financial liabilities presented separately, the financial liabilities at FVTPL are presented as held- for-trading financial liabilities. A financial liability is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied: It has been acquired principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term; or On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Group manages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as a hedging instrument. A financial liability may be designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition when one of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) Such designation eliminates or significantly reduces accounting mismatch; or (ii) The Group makes management and performance evaluation on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Group's formally documented risk management or investment strategy, and reports to key management personnel on that basis. (iii) The qualified hybrid financial instrument combines financial asset with embedded derivatives. Transaction financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value and any dividend or interest expenses paid on the financial liabilities are recognized in profit or loss. - 28 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Upon the derecognition of such liability, the accumulated amount of change in fair value that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability, which is recognized in other comprehensive income, is transferred to retained earnings. Any dividend or interest income earned on the financial liabilities are recognized in profit or loss. If the impact of the change in credit risk of such financial liability dealt with in the above way would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, the Group shall present all gains or losses on that liability (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of that liability) in profit or loss. Financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL when the financial liabilities is arising from contingent consideration recognized by the Group as an acquirer in a business combination not involving enterprises under common control. 10.4.1.2 Other financial liabilities Except for financial liabilities, financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments arising from transfer of financial assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising from continuing involvement in the transferred financial assets, other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost, with gain or loss arising from derecognition or amortization recognized in profit or loss. That the Group and its counterparty modify or renegotiate the contract does not result in derecognition of a financial liability subsequently measured at amortized cost but result in changes in contractual cash flows, the Group will recalculate the carrying amount of the financial liability, with relevant gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. The Group will determine carrying amount of the financial liability based on the present value of renegotiated or modified contractual cash flows discounted at the financial liability's original effective interest rate. For all costs or expenses arising from modification or renegotiation of the contract, the Group will adjust the modified carrying amount of the financial liability and make amortization during the remaining term of the modified financial liability. - 29 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Financial instruments - continued 10.4 Classification of financial liabilities equity instruments - continued 10.4.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities - continued 10.4.1.3 Financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder of the contract for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial guarantee contracts that are not designated as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities arising from transfer of financial assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising from continuing involvement in the transferred financial assets, and loan commitments to provide a loan at a below-market interest rate, which are not designated at fair value through profit or loss, are measured at the higher of: (1) amount of loss provision; and (2) the amount initially recognized less cumulative amortization amount determined based on the revenue standard. 10.4.2 Derecognition of financial liabilities The Group derecognizes a financial liability (or part of it) when the underlying present obligation (or part of it) is discharged. An agreement between the Group (the debtor) and the creditor to replace the original financial liability with a new financial liability with substantially different terms is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. When the Group derecognizes a financial liability or a part of it, it recognizes the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability (or part of the financial liability) derecognized and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or new financial liabilities assumed) in profit or loss. 10.4.3 Equity instruments An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued (including refinanced), repurchased, sold and cancelled by the Group are recognized as changes of equity. Changes of fair value of equity instruments is not recognized by the Group. Transaction costs related to equity transactions are deducted from equity. The Group recognizes the distribution to holders of the equity instruments as distribution of profits, dividends paid do not affect total amount of shareholders' equity. - 30 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 10. Financial instruments - continued 10.5 Derivatives and embedded derivatives Derivatives include forward exchange contracts, currency swaps, interest rate swaps and foreign exchange options, etc. Derivatives are initially measured at fair value at the date when the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts with a financial asset host are not separated by the Group. The hybrid contract shall apply to the relevant accounting standards regarding the classification of financial assets as a whole. Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts with hosts that are not financial assets are separated and treated as separate derivatives by the Group when they meet the following conditions: (1) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to those of the host contract; (2) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative. (3) the hybrid contracts are not measured at fair value through profit or loss. For the embedded derivative separated from the host contracts, the Group accounts for the host contracts in the hybrid contracts with applicable accounting standards. When the embedded derivatives whose fair value cannot be measured reliably by the Group according to the terms and conditions of the embedded derivatives, the fair value of such derivatives are measured at the difference between the fair value of the hybrid contracts and the fair value of the host contracts. By adopting the above method, if the embedded derivative cannot be measured on a stand-alone basis at the time when acquired or at subsequent balance sheet dates, the hybrid instrument is designated as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss as a whole. 10.6 Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities Where the Group has a legal right that is currently enforceable to set off the recognized financial assets and financial liabilities, and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the financial asset and settle the financial liability simultaneously, a financial asset and a financial liability shall be offset and the net amount is presented in the balance sheet. Except for the above circumstances, financial assets and financial liabilities shall be presented separately in the balance sheet and shall not be offset. 10.7 Reclassification of financial instruments When the Group changes the business model to manage the financial assets, the financial assets affected will be reclassified and no financial liabilities will be reclassified. - 31 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Where a financial asset at amortized cost is reclassified as a financial assets at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") by the Group, such financial asset is measured at fair value at the date of reclassification and the difference between the original carrying amount and the fair value is recognized in profit or loss for the period. Where a financial asset at amortized cost is reclassified as a financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI") by the Group, such financial asset is measured at the fair value at the date of reclassification, and the difference between the original amount and the fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income. Where a financial asset at FVTOCI is reclassified as a financial asset at amortized cost by the Group, the accumulated gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred out and the fair value is adjusted as the fair value at the date of reclassification. The adjusted fair value is recognized as the new carrying amount, as if the financial asset had been measured at amortized cost. Where a financial asset at FVTOCI is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTPL by the Group, such financial asset continues to be accounted for at fair value. At the same time, the accumulated gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to profit or loss for the period. Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified as a financial asset at amortized cost by the Group, the fair value at the date of reclassification is recognized as the new account balance. Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTOCI by the Group, such financial asset continues to be measured at fair value. Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified, the effective interest rate is determined on the basis of the fair value of the financial asset at the date of reclassification. - 32 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 11. Accounts receivable The Group makes internal credit ratings on customers and determines expected losses rate of notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables. Basis for determining ratings and the expected losses rates are as follows: Internal credit rating Basis for determining portfolio Average expected loss rate (%) Customers can make repayments within credit term and have good credit records based on historical A 0.00-0.10 experience. The probability of unpayment of due amount are extremely low in the foreseeable future. The customer may have overdue payment based on B 0.10-0.30 historical experience but they can make repayments. The evidences indicate that the overdue credit risks of C the customer are significantly increased and there is 0.30-50.00 probability of unpayment and default. The evidences indicate that the accounts receivable are impaired or the customer has significant financial D 50.00-100.00 difficulty. The amounts cannot be recovered in the foreseeable future. 12. Accounts receivable financing Notes receivable classified to hedging instruments for the purpose of hedging, should be listed as accounts receivable financing within one year (including one year). If the term above one year, it should be listed as other investment on bonds. Related accounting policies refer to Note III 10. 13. Inventories 13.1 Categories of inventories Inventories include raw materials, merchandise and others. Inventories are initially measured at cost. Cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other expenditures incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. 13.2 Valuation method of inventories upon delivery The actual cost of inventories upon delivery is calculated using the weighted average method. - 33 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Inventories - continued 13.3 Basis for determining net realizable value of inventories and provision methods for decline in value of inventories At the balance sheet date, inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. If the cost of inventories is higher than the net realizable value, a provision for decline in value of inventories is made. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion, the estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes. Net realizable value is determined on the basis of clear evidence obtained, after taking into consideration the purposes of inventories being held and effect of post balance sheet events. Provision for decline in value of other inventories is made based on the excess of cost of inventory over its net realizable value on an item-by-item basis. After the provision for decline in value of inventories is made, if the circumstances that previously caused inventories to be written down below cost no longer exist so that the net realizable value of inventories is higher than their cost, the original provision for decline in value is reversed and the reversal is included in profit or loss for the period. 13.4 Inventory count system The perpetual inventory system is maintained for stock system. 13.5 Amortization methods for low cost and short-lived consumable items and packaging materials Packaging materials and low cost and short-lived consumable items are amortized using the immediate write-off method. 14. Contract assets 14.1 Recognition and criteria of contract assets A contract asset represents the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Group has transferred to a customer, and such right depends on factors other than the passage of time. The Group's unconditional right (only the passage of time is required) to consideration from the customer is separately presented as " accounts receivable". 14.2 Determination and accounting treatments of expected credit losses ("ECL") for contract assets Refer to Note III, 10.2 "Impairment of financial instruments" for determination and accounting treatments of expected credit losses for contract assets. - 34 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Assets held for sale When the Group withdraw the book value of certain assets or disposal group mainly through disposal instead of continual application, the assets should be classified as held-for-sale assets. Assets or disposal group classified as held-for-sale assets should meat following conditions: (1) The current status is available for immediate distribution according to similar transactions of this category of assets or disposal group; (2) The transaction is likely to occur, i.e. the Group has made its resolution over the distribution arrangements and acquired purchase commitment. Also the distribution is going to be fulfilled within a year. If the holding company loses control of its subsidiary for reasons like subsidiary disposal, in regardless of whether the holding company still keeps part of equity investment, once the proposed investment disposal meets the requirements of being classified as available for sale assets in the holding company's individual statement, all assets and liabilities of the subsidiary should be classified as held-for-sale in consolidated financial statement. The group's non-current assets and disposal group are measured at the lower of book value and the net value of fair value less costs to sell. Once the book value is higher than the net value of fair value less costs to sell, the book value should be adjusted to the net value and the excess should be recognized as impairment losses and provision for held-for-sale assets impairment should be made. A gain and a reverse in the previous provision for held-for-sale assets impairment can be recognized for any increase in fair value less costs to sell at subsequent balance sheet dates, to the extent that it is not in excess of the cumulative impairment loss that has been recognized. Asset impairment losses recognized before such assets are classified as held for sale will not be reversed. Non-current held-for-sale assets is not subject to depreciation and amortization. The creditor interest and other expenses of disposal group classified as held-for-sale asset should still be recognized. Once the associate or joint venture equity investment is completely or partly classified as held- for-sale assets, the classified part of the investment is not subject to equity method measurement. If an asset or a disposal group has been classified as held for sale but the recognition criteria for non-current assets held for sale are no longer met, the Group shall cease to classify the asset or disposal group as held for sale. It shall be measured at the lower of (1) the carrying amount before the asset or disposal group was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation, amortization or impairment that would have been recognized had the asset or disposal group not been classified as held for sale; and (2) the recoverable amount at the date of the decision not to sell. For equity investments in associates or joint ventures that are classified as held for sale but the recognition for non-current assets held for sale are no longer met, such investments are accounted for retrospectively using the equity method from the date when they classified as held for sale. The financial statements for the held-for-sale period are adjusted accordingly. - 35 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Long-term equity investments 16.1 Basis for determining joint control and significant influence over investee Control is archived when the Group has the power over the investee and has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an economic activity, and exists only when the strategic financial and operating policy decisions relating to the activity require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies. When determining whether an investing enterprise is able to exercise control or significant influence over an investee, the effect of potential voting rights of the investee (for example, warrants and convertible debts) held by the investing enterprises or other parties that are currently exercisable or convertible shall be considered. 16.2 Determination of investment cost For a long-term equity investment acquired through a business combination involving enterprises under common control, the investment cost of the long-term equity investment is the attributable share of the carrying amount of the shareholders' equity of the acquiree at the date of combination. The difference between the initial investment cost and the carrying amount of cash paid, non-cash assets transferred and liabilities assumed shall be adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient, any excess shall be adjusted to retained earnings. If the consideration of the combination is satisfied by the issue of equity securities, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment shall be the share of party being absorbed of the owners' equity in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party at the date of combination. The aggregate face value of the shares issued shall be accounted for as share capital. The difference between the initial investment cost and the aggregate face value of the shares issued shall be adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient, any excess shall be adjusted to retained earnings. Where equity interests in an acquiree are acquired in stages through multiple transactions ultimately constituting a business combination involving entities under common control, the acquirer shall determine if these transactions are considered to be a "package deal". If yes, these transactions are accounted for as a single transaction where control is obtained. If no, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment is the share of book value of owners' equity of the acquired entity in the ultimate controlling party's consolidated financial statements at the date of combination. The difference between the initial investment cost and the sum of carrying amount of equity investments previously held in the acquiree and the new investment cost is adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, any excess is adjusted to retained earnings. Other comprehensive income recognized for the previously held equity investments by accounting treatment of equity method or available-for-sale financial assets is not subject to accounting treatment temporarily. For a long-term equity investment acquired through business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the investment cost of the long-term equity investment acquired is the cost of acquisition. - 36 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Long-term equity investments - continued 16.2 Determination of investment cost - continued The absorbing party's or purchaser's intermediary expenses (fees in respect of auditing, legal services, valuation and consultancy services, etc.) and other administrative expenses attributable to the business combination are recognized in profit or loss in the periods when they are incurred. The long-term equity investment acquired otherwise than through a business combination is initially measured at its cost. When the entity is able to exercise significant influence or joint control (but not control) over an investee due to additional investment, the cost of long-term equity investments is the sum of the fair value of previously-held equity investments determined in accordance with Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.22 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (ASBE No. 22) and the additional investment cost. 16.3 Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss 16.3.1 A long-term equity investment accounted for using the cost method Long-term equity investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method in the Company's separate financial statements. A subsidiary is an investee that is controlled by the Group. Under the cost method, a long-term equity investment is measured at initial investment cost. Additional or withdrawing investment would affect the cost of long-term equity investment. Investment income is recognized in the period in accordance with the attributable share of cash dividends or profit distributions declared by the investee. 16.3.2 A long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method Except associate and joint venture investment completely or partly classified as available for sale, and The Group accounts for investment in associates and joint ventures using the equity method. An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and a joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Under the equity method, where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition, no adjustment is made to the initial investment cost. Where the initial investment cost is less than the Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition, the difference is recognized in profit or loss for the period, and the cost of the long- term equity investment is adjusted accordingly. - 37 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

The carrying amount of the investment shall be reduced by the portion of any profit distributions or cash dividends declared by the investee that is distributed to the investing enterprise. The investing enterprise shall adjust the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment for other changes in owners' equity of the investee (other than net profits or losses, other comprehensive income and profit distribution), and include the corresponding adjustment in capital reserve. The Group recognizes its share of the investee's net profit or loss based on the fair value of the investee's individually identifiable assets at the acquisition date after making appropriate adjustments. Where the accounting policies and accounting period adopted by the investee are different from those of the investing enterprise, the investing enterprise shall adjust the financial statements of the investee to conform to its own accounting policies and accounting period, and recognize other comprehensive income and investment income or losses based on the adjusted financial statements. Unrealized profits or losses resulting from the Group's transactions and assets invested or sold that are not recognized as business transactions with its associates and joint ventures are recognized as investment income or loss to the extent that those attributable to the Group's, equity interest are eliminated. However, unrealized losses resulting from the Group's transactions with its associates and joint ventures which represent impairment losses on the transferred assets are not eliminated. The Group discontinues recognizing its share of net losses of the investee after the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment together with any long-term interests that in substance form part of its net investment in the investee are reduced to zero. Except that if the Group has incurred obligations to assume additional losses, a provision is recognized according to the obligation expected, and recorded in the investment loss for the period. Where net profits are subsequently made by the investee, the Group resumes recognizing its share of those profits only after its share of the profits exceeds the share of losses previously not recognized. 16.4 Disposal of long-term equity investments On disposal of a long-term equity investment, the difference between the proceeds actually received and receivable and the carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss for the period. For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method, if the remaining interest after disposal is still accounted for using the equity method, other comprehensive income previously recognized for using the equity method is accounted for on the same basis as would have been required if the investee had directly disposed of related assets or liabilities, and transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis; owners' equity recognized due to changes in other owners' equity of the investee (other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution) is transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis. - 38 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Investment properties Investment property is property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. It includes a land use right that is leased out; a land use right held for transfer upon capital appreciation; and a building that is leased out. An investment property is measured initially at cost. Subsequent expenditures incurred for such investment property are included in the cost of the investment property if it is probable that economic benefits associated with an investment property will flow to the Group and the subsequent expenditures can be measured reliably, other subsequent expenditures are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. The Group uses the cost model for subsequent measurement of investment property, and adopts a depreciation or amortization policy for the investment property which is consistent with that for buildings or land use rights. An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdraw from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. When an investment property is sold, transferred, retired or damaged, the Group recognizes the amount of any proceeds on disposal net of the carrying amount and related taxes in profit or loss for the period. 18. Fixed assets 18.1 Recognition criteria for fixed assets Fixed assets are tangible assets that are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, for rental to others, or for administrative purposes, and have useful lives of more than one accounting year. A fixed asset is recognized only when it is probable that economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Fixed assets are initially measured at cost. Upon being restructured into a stock company, the fixed assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on the valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department. - 39 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Fixed assets - continued 18.1 Recognition criteria for fixed assets - continued Subsequent expenditures incurred for the fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset and if it is probable that economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the subsequent expenditures can be measured reliably. Meanwhile the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. Other subsequent expenditures are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. 18.2 Depreciation of each category of fixed assets A fixed asset is depreciated over its useful life using the straight-line method starting from the month subsequent to the one in which it is ready for intended use. The useful life, estimated net residual value rate and annual depreciation rate of each category of fixed assets are as follows: Estimated Annual Category Useful lives residual value (%) depreciation rate (%) Port and terminal facilities 5-50 years 5.00 1.90-19.00 Buildings 10-30 years 5.00 3.17-9.50 Machinery and equipment, furniture 3-20 years 5.00 4.75-31.67 and fixture and other equipment Motor vehicles and cargo ships 5-25 years 5.00 3.80-19.00 Estimated net residual value of a fixed asset is the estimated amount that the Group would currently obtain from disposal of the asset, after deducting the estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life. 18.3 Other explanations If a fixed asset is upon disposal or no future economic benefits are expected to be generated from its use or disposal, the fixed asset is derecognized. When a fixed asset is sold, transferred, retired or damaged, the amount of any proceeds on disposal of the asset net of the carrying amount and related taxes is recognized in profit or loss for the period. The Group reviews the useful life and estimated net residual value of a fixed asset and the depreciation method applied at least once at each financial year-end, and account for any change as a change in an accounting estimate. 19. Construction in progress Construction in progress is measured at its actual costs. The actual costs include various construction expenditures during the construction period, borrowing costs capitalized before it is ready for intended use and other relevant costs. Construction in progress is not depreciated. Construction in progress is transferred to a fixed asset when it is ready for intended use. - 40 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 20. Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying asset are capitalized when expenditures for such asset and borrowing costs are incurred and activities relating to the acquisition, construction or production of the asset that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale have commenced. Capitalization of borrowing costs ceases when the qualifying asset being acquired, constructed or produced becomes ready for its intended use or sale. Capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended during periods in which the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset is interrupted abnormally and when the interruption is for a continuous period of more than 3 months. Capitalization is suspended until the acquisition, construction or production of the asset is resumed. Other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. Where funds are borrowed under a specific-purpose borrowing, the amount of interest to be capitalized is the actual interest expense incurred on that borrowing for the period less any bank interest earned from depositing the borrowed funds before being used on the asset or any investment income on the temporary investment of those funds. Where funds are borrowed under general-purpose borrowings, the Group determines the amount of interest to be capitalized on such borrowings by applying a capitalization rate to the weighted average of the excess of cumulative expenditures on the asset over the amounts of specific-purpose borrowings. The capitalization rate is the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the general-purpose borrowings. During the capitalization period, exchange differences related to a specific-purpose borrowing denominated in foreign currency are all capitalized. Exchange differences in connection with general-purpose borrowings are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. 21. Intangible assets 21.1 Valuation method and useful life of intangible assets An intangible asset is measured initially at cost. Upon being restructured into a stock company, the intangible assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on the valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department. When an intangible asset with a finite useful life is available for use, its original cost is amortized over its estimated useful life. Intangible assets with uncertain service life will not be amortize. The terminal operating rights are amortized using the output method, that is, amortized through periods according to the ratio of the estimated minimum guaranteed throughput to the estimated minimum guaranteed total throughput during the operation period. When the estimated minimum guaranteed throughput cannot be measured reliably, the straight-line method will be used for amortization. An intangible asset with uncertain useful life will not be amortized. The amortization method, useful life and estimated net residual value of various intangible assets are as follows: Category Amortization Method Useful Life (year) Residual value (%) Land use rights Straight-line method 40-50 - Port operating right Output method/Straight-line method 30-35 - Others Straight-line method 5-50 - - 41 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 For an intangible asset with a finite useful life, the Group reviews the useful life and amortization method at the end of the year, and makes adjustments when necessary. - 42 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Intangible assets - continued 21.2 Research and development expenditure Expenditure during the research phase is recognized as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Expenditure during the development phase that meets all of the following conditions at the same time is recognized as intangible asset. Expenditure during development phase that does not meet the following conditions is recognized in profit or loss for the period. (1) It is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; (2) The Group has the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; (3) The Group can demonstrate the ways in which the intangible asset will generate economic benefits, including the evidence of the existence of a market for the output of the intangible asset or the intangible asset itself or, if it is to be used internally, the usefulness of the intangible asset; (4) The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; and (5) The expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development phase can be reliably measured. If the expenditures cannot be distinguished between the research phase and development phase, the Group recognizes all of them in profit or loss for the period. The costs of intangible assets generated by the internal research only include the total expenditure incurred for the period from the time point of capitalization to the intangible assets are ready for intended use. For the identical intangible asset, the expenditures recorded as expenses before they qualify for capitalization during the development process are not adjusted. 22. Impairment of long-term assets The Group assesses at the balance sheet date whether there is any indication that the long-term equity investments, investment properties measured at cost method, construction in progress, fixed assets, right-of-use assets and intangible assets with a finite useful life may be impaired. If there is any indication that such assets may be impaired, recoverable amounts are estimated for such assets. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, irrespective of whether there is any indication that the assets may be impaired. Recoverable amount is estimated on individual basis. If it is not practical to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the asset belongs will be estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. - 43 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 22. Impairment of long-term assets - continued If the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount, the deficit is accounted for as an impairment loss and is recognized in profit or loss. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least at the end of each year. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is considered together with the related assets groups, i.e., goodwill is reasonably allocated to the related assets groups or each of assets groups expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. In testing an assets group with goodwill for impairment, an impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount of the assets group or sets of assets groups (including goodwill) is less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss is firstly allocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to such assets group or sets of assets groups, and then to the other assets of the group pro-rata basis on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset (other than goodwill) in the group. Once the impairment loss of above-mentioned asset is recognized, it shall not be reversed in any subsequent period. 23. Long-term prepaid expenses Long-term prepaid expenses represent expenses incurred that should be borne and amortized over the current and subsequent periods (together of more than one year). Long-term prepaid expenses are amortized using the straight-line method over the expected periods in which benefits are derived. 24. Contract liabilities A contract liability represents the Group's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. A contract asset and a contract liability relating to the same contract are accounted for and presented on a net basis. 25. Employee benefits 25.1 The accounting treatment of short-term employee benefits Actually occurred short-term employee benefits are recognized as liabilities, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the period or in the costs of relevant assets in the accounting period in which employees provide services to the Group. Staff welfare expenses incurred by the Group are recognized in profit or loss for the period or the costs of relevant assets based on the actually occurred amounts when it actually occurred. Non-monetary staff welfare expenses are measured at fair value. - 44 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 25. Employee benefits - continued 25.1 The accounting treatment of short-term employee benefits - continued Payment made by the Group of social security contributions for employees such as premiums or contributions on medical insurance, work injury insurance and maternity insurance, etc. and payments of housing funds, as well as union running costs and employee education costs provided in accordance with relevant requirements, are calculated according to prescribed bases and percentages in determining the amount of employee benefits and recognized as relevant liabilities, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the period or the costs of relevant assets in the accounting period in which employees provide services. 25.2 The accounting treatment of post-employment benefits Post-employment benefits are classified into defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. During the accounting period of rendering service to employees of the Group, amount which should be paid according to defined contribution plans is recognized as liabilities, and recognized in profit or loss or related costs of assets. During the accounting period of rendering service to employees of the Group, amount which should be paid according to defined contribution plans is recognized as liabilities, and recognized in profit or loss or related costs of assets. For defined benefit plans, the Group calculates defined benefit plan obligations using projected unit credit method and the service cost resulting from employee service in the current period is recorded in profit or loss or the cost of related assets. Defined benefit costs are categorized as follows: Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on settlements); Net interest of net liabilities or assets of defined benefit plan (including interest income of planned assets, interest expenses of defined benefit plan liabilities and effect of asset ceiling); and Changes arising from remeasurement of net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans. Service costs and net interest of net liabilities and net assets of defined benefit plans are recognized in profit or loss of current period or costs of related assets. Remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability (asset) (including actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset), and any change in the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset)) are recognized in other comprehensive income. - 45 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Employee benefits - continued 25.3 The accounting treatment of termination benefits When the Group provides termination benefits to employees, employee benefit liabilities are recognized for termination benefits, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the period at the earlier of: (1) when the Group cannot unilaterally withdraw the offer of termination benefits because of the termination plan or a curtailment proposal; and (2) when the Group recognizes costs or expenses related to restructuring that involves the payment of termination benefits. 26. Provisions Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation related with contingencies, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation causing an outflow of economic benefits, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at balance sheet date, taking into account the risks, uncertainties and time value of money surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows where the effect of the time value of money is material. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable should not exceed the carrying amount of provisions. 27. Revenue The Group's revenue is mainly from the following business types: (1) Port service; (2) Bonded logistics service (3) Other business such as property development and investment. The Group recognizes revenue based on the transaction price allocated to such performance obligation when a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when "control" of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. A performance obligation represents the commitment that a good and service that is distinct shall be transferred by the Group to the customer. Transaction price refers to the consideration that the Group is expected to charge due to the transfer of goods or services to the customer, but it does not include payments received on behalf of third parties and amounts that the Group expects to return to the customer. - 46 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 27. Revenue - continued If one of the following criteria is met and it is a performance obligation performed over time, the Group recognizes the revenue within a certain period of time according to the progress of the performance: (1) the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group's performance as the Group performs; (2) the customer is able to control the goods under construction in the course of the Group's performance; (3) the goods produced by the Group during the performance of the contract are irreplaceable and the Group has the right to charge for the accumulated part of the contract that has been performed so far during the whole contract period. Otherwise, the Group recognizes revenue at a certain point in time when "control" of the goods or services is transferred to the customer. The Group adopts output method, i.e. the value of goods or services transferred to customers to determine the appropriate progress of performance. Where the progress cannot be determined reasonably, the revenue is recognized based on the amount of cost that is expected to be compensated based on the cost already incurred, until the progress of performance is reasonably determined. If the contract includes two or more performance obligations, at contract inception, the Group allocates the transaction price to single performance obligation according to relative proportion of the stand-alone selling prices of the goods or services promised by single performance obligation. However, where there is conclusive evidence that the contract discount or variable consideration is only related to one or more (not all) performance obligations in the contract, the Group shall allocate the contract discount or variable consideration to relevant one or more performance obligations. The stand-alone selling price is the price at which the Group would sell a promised good or service separately to a customer. If a stand-alone selling price is not directly observable, the Group shall consider all information that is reasonably available to the Group and maximize the use of observable inputs and apply estimates methods consistently in similar circumstances. For contracts that contain variable consideration (e.g. sales discount), the Group estimates the amount of consideration using either the expected value or the most likely amount. The transaction price that includes variable consideration is only to the extent that it is highly probable that such an inclusion will not result in a significant revenue reversal in the future when the uncertainty is subsequently resolved. At the end of each reporting period, the Group reevaluates the variable consideration included in the transaction price. For non-cash consideration from customer, the Group recognizes the transaction price based on the fair value of the non-cash consideration. Where the fair value of the non-cash consideration cannot be reasonably estimated, the Group recognizes the transaction price indirectly by reference to the stand-alone price of the promised goods or services promised transferred to the customer. - 47 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III. THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued 27. Revenue - continued If the contract includes significant financing component, the Group determines the transaction price based on the amount payable under the assumption that the customer pays that amount payable in cash when "control" of the goods or services is obtained by the customer. The difference between the transaction price and the contract consideration shall be amortized within the contract period using effective interest rate. If the Group expects, at contract inception, that the period between when the Group transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less, the Group needs not to consider the significant financing component. The Group determines whether it is a principal or an agent at the time of the transaction based on whether it owns the "control" of the goods or services before the transfer of such goods or services to the customer. The Group is a principal if it controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a customer, and the revenue shall be recognized based on the total consideration received or receivable; otherwise, the Group is an agent, and the revenue shall be recognized based on the amount of commission or handling fee that is expected to be charged, and such amount is determined based on the net amount of the total consideration received or receivable after deducting the prices payable to other related parties or according to the established commission amount or proportion. Where payment is received in advance, the advance payment received shall be recorded as a liability and recognized as revenue when the relevant performance obligation is satisfied. The above amount will be recognized as revenue proportionately in accordance with the model of contractual rights exercised by the customer if (1) the Group's advance payment does not need to be returned, (2) the customer may waive all or part of its contractual rights, and (3) the Group expects to be entitled to the amount related to the contractual rights waived by the customer. Otherwise, the balance of the liabilities is recognized as revenue by the Group only when the possibility of the customer requesting the satisfaction of the remaining performance obligations is extremely remote. 28. Contract costs 28.1 Costs to fulfill a contract If the costs incurred in fulfilling a contract are not within the scope of other standard other than the revenue standard, the Group shall recognized an asset from the costs incurred to fulfill a contract only if those costs meet all of the following criteria: (1) the costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Group can specifically identify; (2) the costs generate or enhance resources of the entity that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future; and (3) the costs are expected to be recovered. The asset mentioned above shall be amortized on a basis that is consistent with the transfer to the customer of the goods or services to which the asset relates and recognized in profit or loss for the period. - 48 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Contract costs - continued 28.2 Impairment of contract costs In determination of impairment losses of assets related to contract costs, firstly impairment losses of other assets related to the contract recognized based on other relevant accounting standards; secondly, the Group shall recognized an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds: (1) the remaining amount of consideration that the Group expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services to which the asset relates; (2) the estimated costs that relate to providing those goods or services. The Group shall, after the impairment has been provided, recognized in profit or loss a reversal of some or all of an impairment loss previously recognized when the impairment conditions no longer exist or have improved. The increased carrying amount of the asset shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognized previously. 29. Types and accounting methods of government grants Government grants are transfer of monetary assets or non-monetary assets from the government to the Group at no consideration. A government grant is recognized only when the Group can comply with the conditions attached to the grant and the Group will receive the grant. If a government grant is in the form of a transfer of a monetary asset, it is measured at the amount received or receivable. 29.1 The accounting treatment of government grants related to assets Government grants, such as special funds for modern logistics project and special funds for energy-saving and emission reduction of transportation, are government grants related to assets as they are all related to the construction and use of assets. A government grant related to an asset is recognized as deferred income, and evenly amortized to profit or loss over the useful life of the related asset. 29.2 The accounting treatment of government grants related to income The Group's government grant, such as financial support funds of business tax converted to VAT and reward for energy saving, if used to compensate the related expenses or losses to be incurred in subsequent periods, is determined to be government grant relating to income. A government grant relating to income, if used to compensate the related cost, expenses or losses to be incurred in subsequent periods, is determined as deferred income and recognized in profit or loss over the periods in which the related costs are recognized; if used to compensate the related cost, expenses or losses already incurred, is recognized immediately in profit or loss for the period. - 49 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 A government grant relating to the Group's daily activities, is recognized in other income in line with the nature of economic transaction.

Deferred tax assets/ deferred tax liabilities The income tax expenses include current income tax and deferred income tax. 30.1 Current income tax At the balance sheet date, current income tax liabilities (or assets) for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be paid (or recovered) according to the requirements of tax laws. 30.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities For temporary differences between the carrying amounts of certain assets or liabilities and their tax base, or between the nil carrying amount of those items that are not recognized as assets or liabilities and their tax base that can be determined according to tax laws, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets for deductible temporary differences are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. However, for temporary differences associated with the initial recognition of goodwill and the initial recognition of an asset or liability arising from a transaction (not a business combination) that affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profits (or deductible losses) at the time of transaction, no deferred tax asset or liability is recognized. For deductible losses and tax credits that can be carried forward, deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deductible losses and tax credits can be utilized. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates applicable in the period in which the asset is realized or the liability is settled according to tax laws. Current and deferred tax expenses or income are recognized in profit or loss for the period, except when they arise from transactions or events that are directly recognized in other comprehensive income or in equity, in which case they are recognized in other comprehensive income or in equity, and when they arise from business combinations, in which case they adjust the carrying amount of goodwill. - 51 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Any such reduction in amount is reversed when it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available. 30.3 Offset of income tax When the Group has a legal right to settle on a net basis and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset and presented on a net basis. When the Group has a legal right to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis, and deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be reversed, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset and presented on a net basis. 31. Leases Lease is a contract that conveys the right to use an asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. For contracts that are signed or modified after the date of initial application, at inception/modification of the contracts, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. Unless the terms and conditions of the contract are changed, the Group does not reassess whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. 31.1 The Group as Lessee 31.1.1 Separating components of a lease If a contract contains a lease component and one or more non-lease components, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease components and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components. - 52 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

The commencement date of the lease is the date on which a lessor makes an underlying asset available for use by the Group. The Group measures the right-of-use assets at cost. The cost of the right-of-use assets comprises: the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities; any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives; any initial direct costs incurred by the Group; an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease. Right-of-use assets are depreciated by the Group in accordance with the ASBE No.4 Fixed Assets. If the Group is reasonably certain, that the lease will transfer ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease term, the right-of-use assets is depreciated from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the right-of- use assets is depreciated from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease term. The Group applies ASBE No. 8 Impairment of Assets, to determine whether the right-of-use assets are impaired and to account for any impairment loss identified. 31.1.3 Lease liabilities Except for short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, at the commencement date of the lease, the Group measures the lease liabilities at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. If the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined, the lessee shall use the lessee's incremental borrowing rate. - 53 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Leases - continued 31.1 The Group as Lessee - continued 31.1.3 Lease liabilities - continued The lease payments comprise the following payments by the Group for the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term: fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives; variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate; the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option; payments for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising an option to terminate the lease; amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, are initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of the lease liabilities, are recognized in profit or loss, or in the cost of relevant assets, in the period of those payments. Interest on the lease liabilities in each period during the lease term is calculated by a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease liabilities. After the commencement date, if one of the following occurs, the lease liability is remeasured by the Group with the adjustment to the right-of-use asset. If the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero and there is further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the remaining remeasurement should be recognized in profit or loss. there is a change in the lease term, or in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities, on the basis of the revised lease term and the revised discount rate; there is a change in the amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities, on the basis of the revised lease payments and the unchanged discount rate, unless the change in the lease payments results from a change in floating interest rates, in which case a revised discount is applied to the present value. - 54 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Leases - continued 31.1 The Group as Lessee - continued 31.1.4 Short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value The Group elects not to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, i.e. port and terminal facilities, buildings, machinery and equipment, furniture and fixture and other equipment, motor vehicles and cargo ships, other short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. A shorts- term lease is a lease that, at the commencement date, has a lease term of 12 months or less. A lease for which the underlying asset is of low value is that, the value of the underlying asset is low when it is new. For short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, the Group recognizes the lease payments associated with those leases as an expense or cost of relevant asset on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 31.1.5 Lease modifications A lease modification should be accounted for as a separate lease if both of the following apply: the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more underlying assets; and the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price according to the circumstances of the particular contract For a lease medication that is not accounted for as a separate lease, at the effective date of the lease modification, the Group should allocate the consideration in the modified contract, determine the lease term of the modified lease and remeasure the lease liability by discounting the revised payments using a revised discount rate. For lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease or narrow the term of the lease, the Group should decrease the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset with any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease should be recognized in profit or loss. For remeasurement of lease liabilities from all other lease modifications, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset. 31.2 The Group as Lessor 31.2.1 Separating components of a lease For a contract that contains lease and non-lease components, the Group shall allocate the consideration in the contract in accordance with the allocation of the transaction price under the revenue standard, on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease components and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components. - 55 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Leases - continued 31.2 The Group as Lessor - continued 31.2.2 Classification of leases Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases. 31.2.2.1 The Group as lessor under operating leases The Group recognizes lease payments from operating leases as income on a straight-line basis. The Group capitalizes initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an operating lease and recognizes those costs as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income. Variable lease receipts relating to an operating lease not included in the lease receipts are recognized in profit or loss by the Group when incurred. 31.2.2.2 The Group as lessor under finance leases At the commencement date, the Group recognizes a finance lease receivable at the amount equal to the net investment in the lease with finance lease assets derecognized. The net investment in the lease is the sum of any unguaranteed residual value and lease payments receivable from the commencement date, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. The amount of the lease payments receivable refers to the amount that the Group should collect from the lessee for the purpose of transferring the leased assets during the lease term, including: fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) paid by the lessee, less any lease incentives; variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate; the exercise price of a purchase option, provided that it is reasonably determined that the lessee will exercise the option; the lessee exercises the amount to be paid for the termination of the lease option, provided that the lease term reflects the lessee's exercise of the option to terminate the lease; the residual value of the guarantee provided by the lessee, the party concerned with the lessee and the independent third party with the financial ability to perform the guarantee obligation. Variable payments receivable not included in the net investment in the lease are recognized in profit or loss when they arise. Interest income for each period over the lease term is recognized by the Group at the fixed periodic rate. - 56 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Leases - continued 31.2 The Group as Lessor - continued 31.2.3 Subleases As a lessor of the sublease, the Group accounts for the original lease contract and the sublease contract as two separate contracts. The Group classifies the subleases based on the right-of-use assets generating from the original lease rather than the underlying assets of the original lease. 31.2.4 Lease modifications The Group accounts for a modification to an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date of the modification, considering any lease advances or receivables relating to the original lease as the lease receipts for the new lease. The Group should account for a modification to a finance lease as a separate lease if both: the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more underlying assets; and The consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone price for the increase in scope with any appropriate adjustment to that stand-alone price. For a modification to a finance lease that is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Group should account for the modification as follows: if the lease would have been classified as an operating lease had the modification been effect at the inception date, the Group should account for the lease modification as a new lease from the effective date of the modification, and measure the carrying amount of the underlying asset as the net investment in the lease before the effective date of the lease modification. If the lease would have been classified as an operating lease if the modification had been in effect at the inception date, the Group should apply the requirements of contract modification and renegotiation under the ASBE No. 22 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. 31.2.5 Sale and leaseback transactions 31.2.5.1 The Group as the seller-lessee The Group applies the requirements of the revenue standard to determine whether the transfer of an asset is accounted for as a sale of that asset. If the transfer of an asset does not constitute a sale, the Group should continue to recognize the transferred assets and should recognize a financial liability equal to the transfer proceeds applying ASBE No. 22 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. If the transfer of an asset is a sale, the Group should measure the right-of-use asset arising from the leaseback at the proportion of the previous carrying amount of the asset that relates to the right of use, and recognize only the amount of any gain or loss that relates to the rights transferred to the lessor. - 57 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Exchange of Non-Monetary Assets Where a non-monetary assets transaction satisfies the following conditions at the same time, it should calculated based on fair value. The transaction is commercial in nature and the fair value of the assets received or surrendered can be measured reliably. The fair value of the assets surrendered and relevant payable taxes shall be regarded as the transaction cost of the assets received. For assets surrendered, the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of the asset surrendered shall be recorded into the profit or loss of the current period. If any exact evidence showing that the fair value of the assets received is more reliable, the cost of assets received and surrendered shall be calculated as different way. For assets received, its cost shall be calculated based on fair value of assets received and relevant payable taxes. For the assets surrendered, the difference between the fair value of the assets received and the carrying value of the asset surrendered shall be recorded into the profit or loss of the current period. Where a non-monetary assets transaction does not meet the conditions as prescribed, the carrying value and relevant payable taxes of the assets surrendered shall be the cost of the assets received and no profit or loss is recognized. 33. Discontinued Operation Discontinued operation refers to the separately identifiable components that have been disposed of or classified as held for sale and meet one of the following conditions: (1) The component represents an independent main business or a major business area; (2) This component is a part of a related plan that intends to dispose an independent main business or a separate main operating area; (3) This component is a subsidiary acquired exclusively for resale. Profits or losses from discontinued operations are presented separately in the income statement from continuing operations. Profits and losses from operations or disposals (e.g. impairment losses and reversals of discontinued operations) are presented under discontinued operations. For discontinued operations presented in the current period, the information previously under continuing operations is presented under discontinued operations by the Group in the financial statements for the comparable accounting period. 34. Safety Production Cost According to the Administrative Rules on Provision and Use of Enterprise Safety Production Cost jointly issued by the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Work Safety on 14 February 2012 (filed as Cai Qi [2012] No. 16), safety production cost set aside by the Group is directly included in the cost of relevant products or recognized in profit or loss for the period, as well as the special reserve. When safety production cost set aside is utilized, if the costs incurred can be categorized as expenditure, the costs incurred should be charged against the special reserve. If the costs set aside are used to build up fixed assets, the costs should be charged to construction in progress, and reclassified to fixed assets when the safety projects are ready for intended use. Meantime, expenditures in building up fixed assets are directly charged against the special reserve with the accumulated depreciation recognized at the same amount. Depreciation will not be made in the future period on such fixed assets. - 58 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 III.

Critical judgments in applying accounting policies and key assumptions and uncertainties in accounting estimates In the application of accounting policies as set out in Note (III), the Company is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of items in the financial statements that cannot be measured accurately, due to the internal uncertainty of the operating activities. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are based on historical experiences of the Company's management as well as other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The Company regularly reviews the judgments, estimates and assumptions on a going concern basis. Changes in accounting estimates which only affect the current period should be recognized in current period; changes which not only affect the current but the future periods should be recognized in current and future periods. At the balance sheet date, key assumptions and uncertainties that are likely to lead to significant adjustments to the book values of assets and liabilities in the future are: Goodwill impairment For the purpose of impairment testing, the present value of the expected future cash flows of the assets group or portfolio including goodwill shall be calculated, and such expected future cash flows shall be estimated. Meantime, a pre-tax rate shall be determined that should reflect the time value of money on the current market and the specific interest risks. Recognition of deferred tax The Group calculates and makes provision for deferred income tax liabilities according to the profit distribution plan of subsidiaries, associates and the joint ventures subject to the related law. For retained earnings which are not allocated by the investment company, since the profits will be used to invest the company's daily operation and future development, no deferred income tax liabilities are recognized. If the actually distributed profits in the future are more or less than those expected, corresponding deferred tax liabilities will be recognized or reversed at the earlier of profits distribution date and the declaration date, in the profit and loss of the current period. Deferred tax assets are recognized based on the deductible temporary difference and the corresponding tax rate, to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will be available for the deductible temporary difference. If in the future the actual taxable income does not coincide with the amount currently expected, the deferred tax assets resulting will be recognized or reversed in the period when actually incurred, in profit or loss. - 59 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Operating income and operating costs - continued (3) Description of performance obligations The Group provides wharf service, bonded logistics service and other services. These services are obligations performed over a period of time. For wharf services, as the handling time for containers and bulk cargos is short, the management believes that it is not necessary to recognize revenue according to the progress towards the completion of contract and it is an appropriate method to recognize the fulfillment of performance obligation and revenue upon the completion of the service. For bonded logistics service and other services, the customers evenly obtains and consumes the economic benefits from the Group's performance of contract, meanwhile the charging rules as agreed in the contract terms usually adopt daily/month/yearly basis. During the process of rendering services, the Group recognizes revenue using straight-line method. Part of the Group's handling contracts are established with discount terms, i.e. the customers whose business volume reaches agreed level, are granted with preferential charge rate or discount. At the end of the period, as the business quantity finally realized within the contract period is uncertain, the contract consideration is subject to variable factors. The management included this part of discount in provisions. Details are set out in Note (V) 41. The Group's revenue contract does not have significant financing components.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 VIII. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Group's major financial instruments include cash and bank balances, notes receivable, account receivables, other receivables, long-term receivables, other equity instrument investments, other non-current financial assets, short-term borrowings, notes payable, accounts payable, other payables, long-term borrowings, bonds payable, long-term payables etc. Details of these financial instruments are disclosed in Notes (V). The risks associated with these financial instruments and the policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. Management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure the risks are monitored at a certain level. The Group adopts sensitivity analysis techniques to analyze how the entity's profit or loss and for the period and shareholders' equity would have been affected by changes in the relevant risk variables that were reasonably possible. As it is unlikely that risk variables will change in an isolated manner, and the interdependence between risk variables will have significant effect on the amount ultimately influenced by the changes in a single risk variable, the following items are based on the assumption that each risk variable has changes on a stand-alone basis. 1. Risk management objectives and policies The Group's risk management objectives are to achieve proper balance between risks and yield, minimize the adverse impacts of risks on the Group's operation performance, and maximize the benefits of the shareholders and other equity investors. Based on these risk management objectives, the Group's basic risk management strategy is to identify and analyze the industry's exposure to various risks, establish appropriate bottom line for risk tolerance, implement risk management, and monitors these exposures to ensure the risks are monitored at a certain level. 1.1 Market risk 1.1.1 Currency risk Currency risk is the risk that losses will occur because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group's exposure to the currency risk is primarily associated with HKD, USD and EUR. Except for part of the purchases and sales, the Group's other principal activities are denominated and settled in RMB. As at 30 June 2021, the balance of the Group's assets and liabilities are both denominated in functional currency, except that the assets and liabilities set out below are recorded using foreign currency. Currency risk arising from the foreign currency balance of assets and liabilities may have impact on the Group's performance.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 VIII. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - continued 1. Risk management objectives and policies - continued 1.1 Market risk - continued 1.1.1 Currency risk - continued The Group closely monitors the effects of changes in the foreign exchange rates on the Group's currency risk exposures. According to the current risk exposure and judgment of the exchange rate movements, management considers it is unlikely that the exchange rate changes in the future one year will result in significant loss to the Group. Sensitivity analysis on currency risk The assumption for the sensitivity analysis on currency risk is that all the cash flow hedges and hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation are highly effective. On the basis of the above assumption, where all other variables are held constant, the reasonably possible changes in the foreign exchange rate may have the following pre-tax effect on the profit or loss for the period and shareholders' equity: Unit: RMB The current period The prior period Effect on Item Changes in exchange rate Effect on Effect on shareholders' Effect on profits profits shareholders' equity equity All foreign currencies 5% increase against RMB -37,283,559.46 -37,283,559.46 -21,788,739.77 -21,788,739.77 All foreign currencies 5% decrease against RMB 37,283,559.46 37,283,559.46 21,788,739.77 21,788,739.77 All foreign currencies 5% increase against USD 1,204,140.69 1,204,140.69 1,832,900.68 1,832,900.68 All foreign currencies 5% decrease against USD -1,204,140.69 -1,204,140.69 -1,832,900.68 -1,832,900.68 All foreign currencies 5% increase against HKD -161,772,050.17 -161,772,050.17 -247,590,042.34 -247,590,042.34 All foreign currencies 5% decrease against HKD -161,772,050.17 -161,772,050.17 247,590,042.34 247,590,042.34 All foreign currencies 5% increase against FCFA 29,661,962.11 29,661,962.11 -59,525,285.86 -59,525,285.86 All foreign currencies 5% decrease against FCFA -29,661,962.11 -29,661,962.11 59,525,285.86 59,525,285.86 1.1.2 Interest rate risk - changes in cash flows Risk of changes in cash flows of financial instruments arising from interest rate changes is mainly related to bank loans with floating interest rate. (See Note (V) 26 and Note (V) 36). The Group continuously and closely monitors the impact of interest rate changes on the Group's interest rate risk. The Group's policy is to maintain these borrowings at floating rates. Presently, the Group has no arrangement such as interest rate swaps etc. - 124 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 VIII. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - continued 1. Risk management objectives and policies - continued 1.1 Market risk - continued 1.1.2 Interest rate risk - changes in cash flows - continued Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk is based on the following assumptions: Fluctuations of market interest rate can affect the interest income or expense of a financial instrument with floating interest rate; For a financial instrument at fair value with fixed interest rate, the fluctuations of market interest rate can only affect its interest income or expense; For a derivative financial instrument designated as hedging instrument, the fluctuations of market interest rate affects its fair value, and all interest rate hedging are expected to be highly effective; The changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments and other financial assets and liabilities are calculated using cash flow discounting method by applying the market interest rate at balance sheet date. On the basis of above assumptions, where the other variables held constant, the pre-tax effect of possible and reasonable changes in interest rate on the profit or loss for the period and shareholders' equity are as follows: Unit: RMB The current period The prior period Changes in Item Effect on profits Effect on Effect on profits Effect on interest rate shareholders' equity shareholders' equity Short-term borrowings and long-term 1% increase -103,396,518.44 -103,396,518.44 -145,999,335.58 -145,999,335.58 borrowings Short-term borrowings and long-term 1% decrease 103,396,518.44 103,396,518.44 145,999,335.58 145,999,335.58 borrowings 1.1.3 Other price risk The Group's price risk is mainly arising from held-for-trading equity instrument investments and other equity instrument investments. The Group reduces the price risk of equity instrument investments by holding portfolio of multiple equity securities. 1.2 Credit risk As at 30 June 2021, the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties and financial guarantees issued by the Group is arising from the carrying amount of the respective financial assets recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. For financial instruments measured at fair value, the carrying amount reflects the exposure to risks but not the maximum exposure to risks; the maximum exposure to risks would vary according to the future changes in fair value. - 125 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 30 JUNE 2021 VIII. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - continued 1. Risk management objectives and policies - continued 1.2 Credit risk - continued In order to minimize the credit risk, the Group has delegated a team responsible for determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of financial assets at each balance sheet date to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the management of the Group considers that the Group's credit risk is significantly reduced. The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because they are deposited with banks with high credit ratings. The Group has adopted a policy to ensure that all sales customers have good credit records. The Group's risk exposure spreads over a number of counterparties and customers, therefore the Group has no significant concentration of credit risk. At 30 June 2021, the balance of accounts receivable from top five entities is RMB 460,789,341.84 (31 December 2020: RMB 446,519,920.68), accounting for 23.88% (31 December 2020: 30.40%) of the Group's accounts receivable. In addition, the Group has no other significant credit risk exposure concentrated on single financial asset or portfolio of financial assets with similar characteristics. 1.3 Liquidity risk In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group's operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants. For the period from 1 January to 30 June 2021, the Group had total current liabilities in excess of total current assets of RMB 4,988,808,531.03. As at 30 June 2021, the Group has available unutilized loan facility of RMB 44,924,971,453.51which is more than current liabilities. Therefore, the Group's management believes that the Group has no significant liquidity risk. The following is the maturity analysis for financial assets and financial liabilities held by the Group which is based on undiscounted remaining contractual obligations: Unit: RMB Item Carrying amount Gross amount Within 1 year 1 to 5 years Over 5 years Short-term borrowings 4,918,709,603.87 4,962,866,633.77 4,962,866,633.77 - - Notes payable 10,456,401.57 10,456,401.57 10,456,401.57 - - Accounts payable 745,241,136.72 745,241,136.72 745,241,136.72 - - Other payables 3,866,179,811.31 3,866,179,811.31 3,866,179,811.31 - - Non-current liabilities due 8,743,691,405.73 8,937,632,106.24 8,937,632,106.24 - - within one year Other current liabilities 2,165,517,831.24 2,182,300,365.49 2,182,300,365.49 - - Long-term borrowings 7,334,778,282.88 8,305,161,723.96 - 6,424,712,248.76 1,880,449,475.20 Bonds payable 17,283,407,358.74 17,369,182,093.23 - 13,496,709,846.86 3,872,472,246.37 Lease liabilities 1,222,109,735.26 1,909,998,378.59 - 668,177,905.72 1,241,820,472.87 Long-term payables 1,177,539,049.89 1,274,621,660.09 - 26,880,639.26 1,247,741,020.83 Other non-current liabilities 3,364,055,291.80 3,364,055,291.80 - 258,175,401.59 3,105,879,890.21 - 126 - CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.
