Section III Discussion and Analysis of the Management I. Status of the Industry in Which the Company Is Located during the Reporting Period (I) Basic information, development stage, cyclical characteristics of the involved industry and our position in the industry According to the CSRC’s Guidelines for the Industry Classification of Listed Companies (2012 Revision), the Company is a member of retail industry (classification code: F52). The Company is engaged in planning, design, supply chain management, and sales of clothing and accessories. Online retailing refers to the activities of retailers selling products through e-commerce platforms.The Company sells clothing, jewellery accessories and aquatic products directly to end consumers through Alibaba’s e-commerce platforms (Taobao and Tmall). According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, China’s retail sales of consumables in 2023 was RMB 47.1 trillion in total, and the online retail sales was RMB 15. 4 trillion, an increase of 11.0% from the previous year. Among them, the online retail sales of physical goods was RMB 13.0 trillion, an increase of 8.4%, accounting for 27.6% of the total retail sales of consumer goods; among the online retail sales of physical goods, the sales of food, clothing, and daily-use articles increased by 11.2%, 10.8%, and 7.1%, respectively. In terms of channels, the online retail sales growth is higher than overall retail growth. The internet retail industry is burgeoning.. Within two decades of development, online retailing, driven by the continuous improvement of residents’ consumption levels and the continuous upgrading of Internet infrastructure, has achieved growth rates that surpass traditional offline retail channels, significantly altering the way consumers buy. For consumers, compared to traditional stores, online retailing has lifted the limitations of time and space limitations, providing consumers with more product information in terms of quantity and variety, significantly reducing information costs and speeding up decision-making process. The continuous technological upgrading of Internet infrastructure optimizes shopping experience through textual information to images, short videos, live streaming, and even virtual reality technology for some products; the rapid development of the logistics and express delivery industry provides necessary logistical support for online retailing; mobile payment technology and third-party payments enable consumers to complete transactions without worries, make payments, refunds, and returns more convenient, achieving convenience and satisfaction for consumers. The explosive application of Artificial Intelligence technology (AI) enables internet retail enterprises to continually benefit in areas 13 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. such as big data analysis in production and operation, marketing communication, and visual content creation, which can help enhance market share and reduce operational cost. For enterprises, online retailing can simplify the distribution of goods and help them reduce the costs for intermediate circulation; additionally, it enables digitalizing and visualizing consumer behaviors through information technology, so as to help enterprises to better meet consumer needs through analysis of consumer behavior and big data, and to reduce excess inventory through agile supply chain management, resulting in better ecological benefits. The structural shift of the value chain reflects the long-term trend of efficiency, and the application of new technologies and models continuously optimizes the integration of information flow, logistics, and capital flow. While obtaining goods in a more convenient, swift, and cost-effective way, consumers are also forming their own shopping habits and make it a ratchet effect. That is to say, once they shop in a faster, better, and more cost-effective way, it is difficult for them to return to the opposite way, in which they have to spend more (including information costs and economic expenditures). Therefore, for both enterprises and consumers, online retailing has significantly increased the supply and demand of goods, improved overall social welfare, and made more people feel a stronger sense of gain. This is the basic logic behind our long-term optimism for this business model. As a well-known Internet retailer of fashion clothing, the Company provides consumers with high- quality and cost-effective clothing through Internet channels. With many years of efforts in talent, technology, and supply chain management, our online store “Rumere” has advantages in terms of creditworthiness, fan base, and customer reputation. For a long time, the Company has been committed to providing consumers with high-value and cost-effective quality products, and its clothing and apparel products are made from globally selected raw materials and fashionable designs, and through data-driven marketing and lean supply chain management technology, the Company reduces inventory redundancy, increasing inventory turnover rates and customers’ repurchase rates, exceeding the performance of conventional competitors within the clothing sector. The advantages of the business model and its operating efficiency are reflected in the level of profitability. In the “2022 Top 100 Profitable Enterprises in the Clothing Industry” officially released by the China National Garment Association, the Company ranked in the top three. As of the end of 2023, as a “Outstanding Seller” and “Must-Visit Store” and five-golden-crown store on Taobao, “Rumere” has received more than 17 million positive comments from buyers; the store ratings in terms of product conformity, service attitude, and logistics service were all near perfect, and our fan base had more than 6.66 million followers, and positive comments accounted for over 99.9% 14 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. of the total. The Comopany has teamed up a professional, efficient, and experienced livestream sales business, and our Taobao livestream account with the name of “Rumere” has been followed by over 6.66 million fans. The Company sells clothing and jewellery accessories by taking advantage of frequent launch of new products and fragment orders based on data analysis to offer consumers a more immersive shopping experience throughmore dressing looks and professional recommends. Gradually, a perception of "high quality and cost-effectiveness" has been formed among both new and existing fans of Rongme During the Reporting Period, the Company sold more than 4,000 SPUs on a yearly basis and has served more than 2.89 million consumers. (II) Applicable industry policies In recent years, the government has issued a series of industry policies to promote the development of the e-commerce industry, which plays a positive role in promoting the development of online retailers. In the clothing industry, the promotion of brand building and the expansion of the supply of mid-to- high-end clothing products proposed in the national industry policies play an important role in promoting and guiding the development of the clothing industry and independent brands. See the following for details: 1. Policies and regulations for e-commerce industry (including livestream sales) The formulation and implementation of laws and regulations for online retailing are conducive to long- term standardized and orderly development of the industry, as well as creating a fair competition environment.

(II) Market position of our products and key performance drivers during the Reporting Period 1. Market position of our products Our main products are RUMERE branded clothing and apparel, in which women’s wear accounting for 95% of income in 2023. We deem our products as mid-to-high-end. Firstly, we procure high-end natural raw materials across the globe, including fine contton, cashmere silk and high-end flax. Fine- spun composite fabrics with frontier high-tech are also widely used in our products’ design and production, while most brand retailers using similar materials in the clothing sector put themselves on high-end and high-priced market segments, such as Erdos, Shanghai Silk in China and Loro Piana, Maxmara globally. Secondly, we have a professional design and merchandising team with rich experience in high-end clothing design and business knowhow, making our products hybrid RUMERE style consistency and the fresh ideas in fashion world. In addition, we work with first tier processing manufactories in China, which have been for long the key suppliers of some globle high-end brands. Furthermore, the Company globally sources scarce pearls and other materials from renowned origins, designs and produces jewellery products that rival the quality of leading international brands. Relying on e-commerce platforms (ALIBABA) and with the support of information management systems, the Company enjoys benefit of significant advantages in creditworthiness, fan base, and customer reputation. 2. Key performance drivers 20 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. The revenue is the operating result comprehensively impacted by customer’s pageviews, conversion rate, average spend per customer, return rate, repeat purchase rate and other factors, while its profitability also depends on such factors as gross margin (pricing multiplier), expense ratio, and sell- through rate. Customer’s pageviews is composed of natural consumer flow (arising from customers’ spontaneous access to product information due to public praise, repeat purchases and other factors) and paid flow. The methods to increase natural flow include impressing customers with product quality to encourage repeat purchases or using brand promotion through other media to attract customers to access product information spontaneously. To obtain consumer flow, the Company relies on accumulated promotional experience to comprehensively design and execute promotional plans based on commodity attributes, regions, time intervals and other factors, striving to achieve optimal ROI. Our experience of online promotion enables us to continuously acquire and increase consumer flow at a reasonable cost. In online retailing, a conversion rate depends on various factors such as visual presentation, product description, and customer service. Visual design and live streaming presentation are important competitive advantages for the Company in online retailing. We always keep an eye on new technologies, platforms, and product presentation methods to increase conversion rate, which means turn the consumer flow into a real shopping actions as many as possible. Average spend per customer is related to product price and the number of items purchased per order. The Company adheres to the principle of selecting global materials for product planning, strives to differentiate products for strengthening our pricing ability, and also increases the gross profit rate appropriately on the premise that customers can accept. The number of items purchased per order depends on whether customers are willing to purchase our products. We showcase more product combination schemes through livestream demonstrations and comprehensive visual displays to increase the number of items purchased per order and improve the shopping experience. Return rate and repeat purchase rate are directly related to product quality. The Company has always regarded product quality as its lifeblood from designing and merchandising, material selecting, factory screening, and quality control, resulting in relatively low return rate and high repeat purchase rate. Our operating costs include sales, management, and research and development expenses, with sales expenses consisting of promotion, storage and transportation costs. The promotion expense ratio continued to increase in the past few years, which is consistent with the industry trend and reflects the increasing competition in online retailing, and all competitors have to face this reality and trend, so we must gain a competitive advantage by optimizing our promotion efficiency. Generally, storage and 21 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. transportation costs are linearly related to delivering volume, but like the upward trend in labor costs across all industries, these costs have also seen an upward trend in the long run. Unlike traditional think, we believe that the rise in labor costs is beneficial for the long-term development of the consumer retail industry because the increase in such cost represents improved consumers’ income level. The rise in costs requires competitors to improve their operating efficiency, thereby contributing to the progress and efficiency improvement of the entire industry. Sell-through rate is a key indicator affecting the profitability of every retailer. A higher sell-through rate means better cash flow, lower inventory redundancy costs, and stronger pricing ability. The Company has always been committed to improving sell-through rates by combining in-stock and pre- sale modes without affecting the customer shopping experience. We use a quick-response order response mechanism and data-driven promotion methods to increase sell-through rate, reduce inventory redundancy and pass on these cost savings to our customers, providing them with high- quality and cost-effective products and achieving a virtuous cycle featuring high repeat purchase rate and high sell-through rate. The Company needs to comply with the disclosure requirements for “e-commerce business” as stated in the “No. 4 Self-Discipline Supervision Guidelines of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange for Listed Companies - GEM Industry Information Disclosure”: Since its establishment, the Company has been deeply involved in the Taobao platform for many years and sold the products under its self-owned women’s clothing brand “RUMERE” through three online stores on Taobao and Tmall (“Rumere High-end Women’s Clothing - High-Quality & Cost-effective”, “Rongmere Flagship Store”, and “Rumere Flagship Store”). Our core operating data is recorded and kept by orders placed on Taobao, including the number of buyers, total order amount, and the number of sub-orders; we rely on the information provided by Internet platforms through their business insight software to obtain the data related to customers’ consumption behaviors, including pageviews, the number of visitors and new visitors. According to the backend data provided by business insight software, our operating data for the Reporting Period and for the same period of previous year are shown in the table below: The data shows that the Company was under stable operation, and all core data show an overall upward trend.

III. Analysis of core competitiveness 1. Online retailing With the development of the Internet in China and changes in consumers’ shopping habits, China has seen an increasing proportion of online shopping in the retail industry. The advantages of no time and space limitations and lower channel costs allow those retailers that use e-commerce platforms as their main sales channels to have a wider development space. The Company relies on online channels and adopts a vertical sales model without intermediate steps, greatly reducing the commodity circulation cost and information communication cost, and enabling customers to purchase high-quality products at relatively low prices. Moreover, relying on Internet platforms and information management systems, the Company can obtain complete feedback information from consumers and make timely adjustments to its own business strategies and product combinations. Since its establishment, the Company has based itself on online retailing, and after many years of efforts, it has set up an online retailing team with high-level business capabilities. The team has rich experience in online store operations, customer service, marketing and promotion, and other important aspects of online retailing, ensuring that the Company can flexibly adapt to changing trends in the online clothing retail industry and maintain its online channel advantage. The Company has already established an influential brand image on Taobao and formed a stable customer base over time, attracting great attention. 2. Design and merchandising The Company has established a professional product design and merchandising team. Based on the brand style and concept, the team closely follows current trends and strives to innovate and create new 23 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. product styles, and makes continuous efforts in optimizing our brand image and vitality. Planning is the starting point for product development and design, promotion, and sales. We will analyze and investigate the high-end clothing market and fashion trend in the planning stage to ensure that our designs reflect the brand style and keep up with market trends. Additionally, our design and merchandising team continues to conduct market research based on the development plan to determine the design and merchandising direction of newly developed products. In addition to obtaining market information, our planning department also analyzes global popular styles and colors, popularity of sub- categories, sales status, and transaction data on online retailing platforms from different perspectives to timely and accurately obtain consumer preferences and customer feedback. This helps to fully utilize the rapid response capability of our supply chain and make timely adjustments to consumer needs and keep optimizing the design and merchandising of new products. The Company is used to formulating an annual development plan for its clothing brands, comprehensively considering overall strategic planning, brand and product style positioning, annual business goals, market feedback and other factors in the plan. 3. Information system The Company operates business based on Internet platforms and attaches great importance to the establishment and upgrade of management information systems, and over the years of continuous improvement and updating, it has accumulated practical experience and established a series of systems that talored for our operations. The Company has launched new product arrangement, supplier settlement management, intelligent raw material management and other systems, all of which form a basic information management system covering all business processes to achieve full coverage from design and merchandising to production management, as well as sales data digitization from order management to shipping management, resulting in a closed-loop information system among the Company, customers, and suppliers, so as to form the information infrastructure for frequent update of online products and small orders based repeat purchases. 4. Supply chain management Relying on its sales channels based on Internet platforms, the Company can analyze transaction data on e-commerce platforms and real-time order information in its information management system to timely and accurately obtain consumer preferences, sales progress, customer feedback and other information, and give full play to its matrix product team mechanisms and strong design and merchandising capabilities to make timely adjustments to its product development plans based on consumer needs and complete the design and merchandising of new products. Through long-term 24 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. cooperation and coordination with our suppliers, the Company has established a network of high- quality suppliers covering all clothing categories, who meet the requirements for production capacity and technique skill. Meanwhile, our self-owned factory features small-batch rapid production capacity to provide us with flexible product supply. The overall control over the supply chain ensures that small- batch and high-frequency order demands can be met as soon as possible and the quality requirements can also be satisfied. With the support of management information systems to collect and analyze customer feedback, the design and merchandising team working efficiently on product development, and fast-response supply chain network, the Company is able to make available online its new products three times a week to timely meet consumer demands and help consumers to develop a habit of visiting our online stores, further enhancing customer loyalty. Moreover, our systems are connected to ensure that we can timely obtain the data on how many products are purchased by each consumer and whether they are satisfied with our product and service as well as other consumer data, and feed these data back to related departments, so that the Company can understand and satisfy consumer needs timely and make quick adjustments accordingly, such as accepting more orders or launching similar hot-selling products, to form a virtuous cycle for its business. 5. Customer service The company can provide better customer experience by virtue of the new model of online retailing. Relying on Internet platforms (ALIBABA), the Company can make available online its new products several times a week to timely meet consumer demands. At the same time, highly developed online payment, and express and logistics as part of online retailing infrastructure, also provide convenience for customer payments and try-ons. By selling products online, the Company can obtain consumer feedback more timely and completely. By obtaining real-time sales information from online platforms, the Company ensures that consumers’ browsing frequency for each style of garments, their purchase quantity, satisfaction level and other data can be timely fed back to the Company, enabling us to make quick adjustments accordingly, such as accepting more orders or launching similar hot-selling products, and to timely understand and satisfy consumer needs. Additionally, our online stores are always ready to provide customer service on a 7×24 basis throughout the year, where any consumer can purchase our products at any time, creating a more convenient shopping environment and fully meeting customer demands. 6. Business expansion We always regard innovative supply chain based on real and effective customer demands as the service philosophy we should adhere to. As primary decision-makers for consumption, our customers may 25 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. have other shopping needs for other products than clothing and apparel when shopping online or through live streaming. The Company makes full use of the characteristics of information release by Internet platforms to provide customers with high-quality products and services in multiple categories. In 2023, the Company launched products such as Song brocade (a sophisticated ancient way to make silk brocade from Song dynasty, , which are known as materials of intangible cultural heritage), jewellery accessories (Akoya pearl), and high-end home textiles, and all achieved the sales beyond our expectations. Our capabilities in e-commerce operation, information system, supply chain management, and customer service, which have been made available in the women’s wear retailing, have also been well applied to more product categories and types. By using new products to satisfy customers’ diversified needs, we can not only improve their shopping experience, but also strengthen our brand credibility and reputation, and our strong capability in business expansion has created a virtuous interaction between customer base, high-quality products, and brand image. IV. Analysis of main business 1. Overview In 2023, confronted with the severe and complex macroeconomic situation both at home and abroad, the garment market vitality did not exhibit a clear recovery, and the trend of shrinking operating income and total profit continued to shrank. According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, the total profit of 2023 of industrial regulated of enterprises nationwide reached 7.68583 trillion RMB, decreasing 2.3% compared to the previous year. And the operating income of the textile, apparel, and clothing industry amounted to 1.21047 trillion RMB, which is a year-on-year decrease of 5.4%, and the total profit was 61.38 billion RMB that is a year-on-year decrease of 3.4%. The operating income profit margin was 5.07%. In terms of the production volume of clothing categories, in 2023, the output of woven clothing in regulated enterprises in the garment industry was 6.556 billion pieces, a year-on- year decrease of 15.01%, and the output of knitted clothing was 12.833 billion pieces, which is a year- on-year decrease of 5.08%. The decline rates increased by 9.86 and 2.84 percentage points compared to the same period in 2022. Against this industry contex, the Company achieved operating income of 767 million RMB in 2023, a decrease of approximately 19.13% compared to last year; net profit was 85 million RMB, a decrease of approximately 49.28% year-on-year. The company's operating income profit margin was 13.54%. The decrease of the company's operating income and total profit is mainly due to: (1) The downturn in the garment and apparel consumer market, and there is a year-on-year decline in the transaction volume of clothing and apparel categories on Alibaba's platform according to the announcement analysis, 26 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. indicating an unfavorable environment for the company; (2) The temperature dropped later in the fourth quarter, which resulting in relatively insufficient inventory of autumn and winter products and a sales falling short of expectations; (3) Intensified competition among sellers on retail platforms negatively impacting operating profit margins; (4) As there is an increase in the average inventory age, the loss of inventory price calculated according to the age structure of the warehouse also increases accordingly, based on the principle of prudence; (5) In mid-2023, Shanghai Rumere purchased an office building to facilitate the implementation of the "Design and Research Center Construction Project" financed by capital raising projects and for the company's daily operation, resulting in a significant increase in depreciation expense compared to last year. From the perspective of the domestic market, China's stabilized and improving economy has created favorable conditions and foundations for consumption recovery. With a GDP growth target of around 5% in 2024, we anticipate the recovery trend in the apparel and fashion market. Over a longer horizon, due to the continuous decline in total population and the proportion of the young, the long-term development of the retail industry, including the apparel and fashion sector, increasingly relies on the company's product innovation capability and expectation of consumer income growth. Therefore, we believe that enhancing product innovation and customer service capability continuously will be the fundamental direction of business competition strategy in the new normal. We have a long-term positive outlook on China's high-quality economic development, as well as the sustained stability and prosperity of the consumer market. The pains accompanying structural reforms may bring headwinds to some industries and companies in the short term, but in the broader economic landscape, adverse external condition will compel companies to make strategic and tactical choices conducive to long-term development. Leveraging business models with technological advantages, continuously improving operational capability, and enhancing overall competitiveness through customer value creation will lead to sustained success over the long term. We maintain confidence in the Company's business model and core competitiveness. While conducting operation prudently and accumulating resources actively will lead the company to achieve long-term high-quality development. During the reporting period, the Company invested 280 million RMB to purchase Building 4 of Shanghai Wanyuan City, aiming to advance the construction of the "Design and Research Center Project" and the "Exhibition Center Construction Project." The Company's first flagship store will be established here, which will facilitate the construction of multi-level marketing channel, bring new customer flows, broaden communication channel with consumers, and enhance fan shopping experiences. Additionally, the company continues to optimize product planning, design, and 27 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. supply chain management, select high-end materials globally to provide consumers with a rich and cost-effective range of clothing. In terms of materials, the company has continuously introduced premium materials from Italy, such as high-end cashmere, Danish mink, Spanish Lagone, Turkish denim, Japanese vinegar, etc. Especially with the rise of the "New Chinese Style," the company has established close cooperation with a well-known supplier of "intangible cultural heritage" Song brocade in Suzhou, developing a series of New Chinese Style clothing. And for the accessories, a new high-end jewellery line has been developed, with the Aus White and AKOYO series achieving satisfactory sales. Thirdly, we have continuously strengthened competitive advantages, gathering outstanding talent, and improved operational efficiency, which made the Comapany ranke among the top three in the "Operating Income Profit Margin" list of the Chinese Clothing Association for the past two years. The company's modern manufacturing service base project has put intelligent manufacturing and logistics distribution workshops into use, which further enhanced the company's delivery operation capability and automation level. Dynamic inventory management system and customized clothing pattern design software have been launched, in line with the continuous iteration and upgrade of the company's own business, have further enhanced the company's digital management level. Fourthly, we seized strategic opportunity and utilized market fluctuation actively, which made us increase the frequency of live commerce, expande the team. Fifthly, the Company’s prudently managing financial assets has created long-term value for investors. 2.

Outlook of the Company’s Future Development (I) Industry landscape and trend 1. The fashion retail industry has been reshaped by the rapid development of digital economy, and the sustained growth of online retailing is a long-term trend As the digital economy blooms, the retail industry has benefited from the progress and application of online digital technologies, and has ushered in better development opportunities. In particular, the development of 5G, Wifi and other technologies has greatly improved the speed and breadth of information transmission in the mobile Internet era, and also brought more consumers to the online era based on information infrastructure, and the number of mobile Internet users has exceeded 1.4 billion. Technological advancements have profoundly changed the way, speed, scope, and content regarding information acquisition, and reshaped the supply chain of most industries, including the clothing industry. Online retailing’s rapid growth has become a long-term trend within the sector. The accelerated application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has improved the efficiency of big data analysis and content creation. Relying on online retail platforms and eliminating the circulation process required for distributors and offline stores, online retailing can offer more benefits to end consumers compared to conventional stores, reflecting our strategic advantage in cost reduction. At the same time, online retailing has a vertical layout, and with the help of IT system, it can obtain real-time feedback from end consumers, forming a business model known for fragment orders, quick response, and frequent launch of new products. In recent years, the live streaming economy has deepened the integration of online platforms and retail industry, making online retailing featured with higher interactivity, diversity, and fewer time and space limitations. Online retailing enables direct communication between sellers and buyers, making more efficient interaction and fluiding the trasactions online. As a well-known online clothing brand operator in China, the Company has worked on Taobao-based online business for more than 10 years, and actively expand the live broadcast business in years, becoming one of practitioners who implemented reforms in the retail industry. 2. Design and merchandising capabilities and brand image have been the core competitiveness in the clothing industry, and become more and more important Consumers put greater emphasis on brand value, fashion and other factors, making the success of online clothing retailers more dependent on their capabilities in design and merchandising and brand 47 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. operation. Online clothing retailers consider design and merchandising as the core, properly combine avant-garde design concepts, supply of high-quality raw materials, and impressive workmanship. By continuously enhancing their product strength, they can make consumers more willing to purchase their products. As people chase for better lifestyle and more sofisticate products, design and merchandising capabilities and brand image will become more important. In addition, effective product promotion is another important way for us to expand our customer base and shape our brand. Operating on the digital platform, the Company can fully convey product information to potential consumers through online retail platforms by such means as impressive page design, product graphics and text, short videos, and live streaming, so as to encourage them to buy our products. The Company impresses our customers with product quality, increases sales by online promotion and word-of-mouth marketing, and achieves a virtuous cycle featuring purchases by new customer and repurchases by old customers, accumulating many loyal customers and shaping a good brand image for Rumere. The large number of loyal customers can reflect our comprehensive competitiveness, and is a result of continuously strengthening our brand culture through long-term fine quality and customer service to gain recognition and build up reputation. 3. A new model of cooperation through integration has become a trend in the clothing industry China has seen relatively mature supply chain and supporting facilities for clothing production, and a series of mature industrial clusters have been formed in coastal areas such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Guangdong, gathering a large number of yarn production, fabric and auxiliary material manufacturing, and garment manufacturing factories with decades of experience, providing downstream brand clothing retailers with qualified resources. Therefore, the Company adopts a production model that outsources main production activities to first-tier manufacturers and is also supported by independent production. In addition, the Company has maintained long-term partnership with major raw material and processing suppliers, thereby improving the reliability of our outsourced production activities. This production model based on outsourced production enables the Company to invest superior resources in the core skill we accumulated through years. As people can obtain more real-time information through the Internet in their daily life, the continuous improvement of information transmission speed contributes to the globalization of fashion information, making fashion trends more flattened, and global fashion consumption trends are converging at an unprecedented pace. At the same time, global clothing industry chains are gradually coordinated, leading to a trend of global cooperation in clothing design, fabric development, brand 48 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. operation, and distribution channels. In fabric selection and product design, the Company has fully considered the latest fashion trends in other countries, and established deep cooperation with high- quality fabric suppliers globally to provide consumers with differentiated products and form a competitive advantage. 4. Mature third-party logistics enable e-retailers improve their storage and distributing efficiency As the rapid development of the e-commerce industry brings a rapid growth to the warehousing and logistics industry, a group of highly-specialized and large-sized warehousing management and logistics distribution companies have emerged and formed a relatively open and transparent service and price system. Therefore, outsourcing warehousing and logistics activities to third-party professionals has become a preferred choice for most e-retailers at a certain size. Additionally, as related industries gradually mature, this trend of outsourcing warehousing and logistics process to professional service providers in the e-commerce industry is expected to continue in the future. BEST Inc. and SF Express are both our partners, responsible for warehousing and shipping our garments, and for distributing and delivering our products, respectively. By working with these professional warehousing management and logistics distribution companies, the Company has improved the management of warehousing and logistics, reduced warehousing and logistics costs, and improved overall operating efficiency. (II) Development strategy The Company focuses on key part of in the clothing value chain as design and merchandising, supply chain management, and online retailing, and outsources warehousing, logistics, and most of production activities to qualified suppliers, forming a business model featuring independent design and merchandising, controlled supply chain management, and retailing through online stores. The Company is committed to providing consumers with comfortable, fashionable, high-quality, and cost-effective products. The Company will continue to expand our business by using many years of experience in online clothing retailing to develop cross-category, multi-platform, and multi-channel businesses through the development of modern manufacturing service bases, design and R&D centers, exhibition shops, information system upgrades and the improvement of talent training mechanisms. We will expand our product categories beyond women’s wear to include women’s shoes, bags, underwear, and accessories that are favored by female consumers. At the same time, we will take advantage of the favorable condition that female consumers are the key decision-makers for family purchase, increase the sales of men’s and children’s wear, and gradually launch household products, 49 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. and jewellery accessories, home textiles, and other products, making our brand a life style. People have more fragmented time and more diversified interest in the digital era, which has given rise to many online retailing platforms such as WeChat, Tik Tok, and Xiaohongshu. As a pioneer in online clothing retailing, the Company will cooperate with these already-established platforms and other potential emerging platforms in the medium and long term as a gradually mature and improved brand to realize multi-platform development, and fully utilize the characteristics of each platform to achieve synergy of marketing materials, integration of marketing communication, and optimization of marginal utility. In addition, exhibition shops will be established as an important supplement and physical support to online retailing, and the Company will take it as an opportunity to enhance interaction with consumers, acquire experience in online and offline combined retailing, gradually develop new markets, connect physical shops to form a new retail model covering all channels, and enhance brand influence by improving shopping experience. (III) Business plan 1. Strengthening live commerce and supporting team building Recent years, the competition among various internet platforms for traffic has become increasingly fierce, with the primary competitive means of live commerce and content marketing. Live streamers are abundant and the internet retail vibrant. So we believe that based on current technological conditions and market trend, the advantages of live commerce, information dissemination, and traffic operation will continue. During the Reporting Period, the company has increased the frequency of live commerce and enhanced the capability of the accompanying operation team. Building on this foundation, we plan to further increase the frequency of live commerce and expand the scale of our team, integrating it organically combine with the company's product strength. And this will enable us better explain products and clothing combinations to consumers, which can finally expand our sales. 2. Continuously strengthening our capabilities in product design and R&D Capabilities in product design and R&D are important measures for us to enhance our core competitiveness. We will increase our investment in product design and R&D to improve the software and hardware facilities in the entire design system, and attract outstanding design talents to build a diversified design talent system. We plan to build a multi-functional innovation center that integrates product planning, design, and research and development to comprehensively improve our competitive advantage in product design and R&D. By providing more software and hardware facilities and 50 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. recruiting more talents for our team, we will break through the bottlenecks due to lack of design talents and restricted design capacity, enhance our capabilities in design and R&D innovation, and seize the market opportunities to achieve a rapid growth in business scale and brand awareness improvement, and enhance our comprehensive competitiveness and market position. 3. Integration and upgrade of information systems As a high-quality online clothing retailer, the Company has generally built up an MIS that covers all business processes. With the continuous integration and innovation of traditional industries and technologies, and the emergence of new technologies, new demands, new models, and new business types, we will continue to upgrade and transform our information systems, strengthen our management capabilities in design, procurement, production, warehousing, logistics, sales, and after- sales services via the upgrade of ERP, warehousing and logistics management platforms and supplier management systems, and the construction of data centers and intelligent warehouses, and improve our overall quality of IT management to help to level up the operating efficiency. 4. Actively developing more distribution channels Exhibition shops will be established as an important supplement and physical support to online retailing, and the Company will take their establishment as an opportunity to enhance interaction with consumers offline, accumulate experience in online and offline combined retailing, gradually develop new markets, connect both to form a new retail model covering all channels, and enhance brand influence by improving consumer experience. According to the Company’s current business development and strategic planning in the future, we will push forward setting up exhibition shops as appropriate according to the changes in objective conditions and our business progress. (II) Probable risks ahead of us 1. Risks caused by failure to be accurately aware of the changes in fashion trends The fashion clothing industry is featured with fast-changing trends and consumer preferences. Current consumers also have fast-changing demands for fashion trends and styles and are putting forward more requirements for workmanship and fabric quality of clothing products. Due to fast iteration of products in the clothing industry and constant changes in popular culture and fashion trends, market players need to maintain their design and merchandising capabilities and match them with popular culture and consumer preferences. If we fail to be accurately aware of the changes in fashion trends, fail to take the lead in or timely follow up on consumer preferences of the target group, or fail to make timely and effective adjustments to product design and merchandising, we will not be able to update or upgrade our design and merchandising capabilities to meet the fashion trends in the fierce 51 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. competition, and this may lead to weakened brand influence, decreased product sales, inventory backlog, and profit decline, having an adverse impact on our business performance. 2. Risks caused by highly-centralized sales channels During the Reporting Period, we realized our goals for sales revenue, and the sales revenue realized through third-party platforms such as Taobao and Tmall accounted for more than 99% of our total sales, indicating a high centralization of sales channels. Most online branded clothing retailers sell products and provide customer service through third-party e-commerce platforms. However, if these platforms experience significant changes in their own operations, business models, and operating strategies, or adjust related rules to make them unfavorable to merchants, it may have an adverse impact on our business performance. In addition, if the stable partnership between the Company and these third-party e-commerce platforms undergoes a significant change in the future, such change may also have an adverse impact on our business performance. 3. Risk of a decline in performance due to macro economy and other factors Clothing is a kind of optional consumer products, and the growth of the clothing industry is closely related to the macro economy. In the long run, the changes in the population size and structure in China will accelerate a structural change in the consumer goods market, and China has seen a trend in aging of consumer groups and a decrease in the number of young consumers. Given possible long- term slowdown in economic growth, the decrease in economic vitality will change consumers’ income expectations, thereby reducing their motivation to purchase durable consumer goods, including clothing, which may affect our future performance.

Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of the most significance in our audit of thefinancial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of an audit of the financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Recognition of revenue 1. Description of the matter With regard to revenue recognition, please refer to "Note V (20)" for accounting policies and "Note VII (28) " Revenue and Cost of Sales for specific amount. Rumere is in Internet retail industry, and mainly sells women's clothing online. The Company recorded an operating income of RMB767.32 million in 2023. Since the amount of revenue is significant and a key performance indicator, there is a relatively high inherent risk, so we indentify the recognition of revenue as a key audit matter. 2. How the matter was addressed in our audit Our audit procedures for revenue recognition mainly include: (1) We obtained an understanding of and evaluated the key internal control design over the recognition of revenue and tested the effectiveness of key internal control; (2) Considering the sales model of e-commerce platform, We analyzed and evaluated the major risks related to revenue and reward transfer point of revenue via interviewing the management, and then evaluated whether policies for recognizing revenue of Rumere were in compliance with requirements of accounting standards for business enterprises; (3) We analyzed the overall sales income, gross profit of Rumere, and the monthly fluctuations of product sales income and sales quantity, so as to judge whether there were abnormal fluctuations in current period; 94 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. (4) We adopted the sampling method to check supporting documents related to income recognition, including customer orders, logistics orders, payment receipts, online customer signing, etc., to verify the authenticity of sales transaction; (5) We checked several original sales documents and accounting vouchers before and after the balance sheet date, and compared the dates of the accounting vouchers and the payment receipts, signed delivery notes, etc., to assess whether the revenue is included in the appropriate accounting period. (6) We sampled and conducted telephone interviews with customers. From the answers to the telephone interviews, which including transaction amount, transaction quantity, purchase purpose, etc., verified whether the amount, period and method of revenue recognition were accurate; (7) We checked the goods return during and after the period to identify whether there were any significant and abnormal return; (8) We employeed IT experts of the firm to tested the online trading information system of Rumere, including the general control of IT system, business data analysis, etc. Inventory write-down 1. Description of the matter With regard to inventory provision for impairment, please refer to "Note V (11) " for accounting policies and "Note VII (7) " Inventories for specific amount. Inventories of Rumere are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. As of December 31, 2023, the book balance of inventories amounted to RMB542.37 million, the provision for impairment of inventories amounted to RMB148.65 million, and the carrying value of inventories amounted to RMB393.72 million. Given that the amount involved is large and the management needs to make significant judgments, we have identified inventory write-down as a key audit matter. 2. How the matter was addressed in our audit Our audit procedures for inventory write-down mainly include: 95 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. (1) We obtained an understanding of and evaluated the effectiveness of key internal control designs related to inventory write-down, and tested the effectiveness of key internal control; (2) We obtained an understanding of and evaluated the supporting documents and other relevant basis for the management to determine the calculation method of provision for impairment of inventory, and evaluate the reasonableness of the calculation method of provision for impairment of inventories. (3) We obtained the aging list of the Company’s inventories at fiscal year-end, and selected the samples and tracked the original warehousing lists to evaluate the rationality of the inventory age in the aging list. (4) We retested the provision for impairment of inventory to verify the accuracy of the inventory write-down; (5) We conducted inventory monitoring, and observed the actual situation of inventory to identify sluggish, damaged or obsolete inventory, to analyse whether the write-down was sufficient. IV. Other information Management of Rumere is responsible for other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report of the Company for the year of 2023, but excludes the financial statements and our audited reports. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. V. Responsibility of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements 96 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. Management of the Company is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Accounting Standards of Business Enterprises, and for the design, implementation and maintenance of such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process. VI. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our Objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with CSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with CSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: i) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 97 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. ii) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, iii) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. iv) Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. v) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. vi) Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. 98 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

When preparing consolidated financial statements, the Company shall consider the entire group as an accounting entity, adopt uniform accounting policies and apply the requirements of Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises related to recognition, measurement and presentation. The consolidated financial statements shall reflect the overall financial position, operating results and cash flows of the group. (i) Like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent are combined with those of the subsidiaries. (ii) The carrying amount of the parent’s investment in each subsidiary is eliminated (off-set) against the parent’s portion of equity of each subsidiary.

The foreign currency non- monetary items measured at the historical cost shall still be translated at the spot exchange rate on the transaction date; for the foreign currency non-monetary items restated to a fair value measurement, shall be translated into the at the spot exchange rate at the date when the fair value was determined, the difference between the restated functional currency amount and the original functional currency amount shall be recorded into the profits and losses at the current period. 124 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. 9. Financial instruments Financial instrument is any contract which gives rise to both a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. (1) Recognition and derecognition of financial instrument A financial asset or a financial liability should be recognised in the statement of financial position when, and only when, an entity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset can only be derecognised when meets one of the following conditions: (i) The rights to the contractual cash flows from a financial asset expire (ii) The financial asset has been transferred and meets one of the following derecognition conditions: Financial liabilities (or part thereof) are derecognised only when the liability is extinguished—i.e., when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. An exchange of the Company (borrower) and lender of debt instruments that carry significantly different terms or a substantial modification of the terms of an existing liability are both accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. Purchase or sale of financial assets in a regular-way shall be recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting. A regular-way purchase or sale of financial assets is a transaction under a contract whose terms require delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulations or convention in the market place concerned. Trade date is the date at which the entity commits itself to purchase or sell an asset. (2) Classification and measurement of financial assets At initial recognition, the Company classified its financial asset based on both the business model for managing the financial asset and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset: financial asset at amortised cost, financial asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). Reclassification of financial assets is permitted if, and only if, the objective of the entity’s business model for managing those financial assets changes. In this circumstance, all affected financial assets 125 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. shall be reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period after the changes in business model; otherwise the financial assets cannot be reclassified after initial recognition. Financial assets shall be measured at initial recognition at fair value. For financial assets measured at FVTPL, transaction costs are recognised in current profit or loss. For financial assets not measured at FVTPL, transaction costs should be included in the initial measurement. Subsequent measurement of financial assets will be based on their categories: (i)Financial asset at amortised cost The financial asset at amortised cost category of classification applies when both the following conditions are met: the financial asset is held within the business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual term of the financial asset gives rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payment of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. These financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost by adopting the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition according to the amortization under effective interest rate method or impairment are recognised in current profit or loss. (ii) Financial asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) Financial asset at fair value through profit or loss shoulds be subsequently measured at fair value. All the changes in fair value are included in current profit or loss. (3) Classification and measurement of financial liabilities All the financial liabilities of the Company are financial liabilities at amortised cost. After initial recognition, the Company measured these financial liabilities at amortised cost using the effective interest method. (4) Impairment of financial instruments The Company shall recognise a loss allowance based on expected credit losses on a financial asset that is measured at amortised cost. 126 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. (i) Measurement of expected credit losses Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses of the financial instruments with the respective risks of a default occurring as the weights. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (ie all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate or credit- adjusted effective interest rate for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. Lifetime expected credit losses are the expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. 12-month expected credit losses are the portion of lifetime expected credit losses that represent the expected credit losses that result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date (or the expected lifetime, if the expected life of a financial instrument is less than 12 months). At each reporting date, the Company classifies financial instruments into three stages and makes provisions for expected credit losses accordingly. A financial instrument of which the credit risk has not significantly increased since initial recognition is at stage 1. The Company shall measure the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. A financial instrument with a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition but is not considered to be credit-impaired is at stage 2. The Company shall measure the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses. A financial instrument is considered to be credit-impaired as at the end of the reporting period is at stage 3. The Company shall measure the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses. The Company may assume that the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition if the financial instrument is determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date and measure the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12- month expected credit losses. 127 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. For financial instrument at stage 1, stage 2 and those have low credit risk, the interest revenue shall be calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset (ie, impairment loss not been deducted). For financial instrument at stage 3, interest revenue shall be calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost after deducting of impairment loss. For other receivables which are demonstrated to be impaired by any objective evidence, or applicable for individual assessment, the Company shall individually assess for impairment and recognise the loss allowance for expected credit losses. If the Company determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for other receivables, or the expected credit loss of a single financial asset cannot be assessed at reasonable cost, such other receivables shall be divided into several groups with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively calculated the expected credit loss. The determination basis of groups is as following: Determination basis of other receivables is as following: Group 1 of other receivables: Deposit, guarantee receivable and imprest funds Group 2 of other receivables: temporary payments and others For each group, the Company calculates expected credit losses through default exposure and the 12- months or lifetime expected credit losses rate, taking reference to historical experience for credit losses and considering current condition and expectation for the future economic situation. (ii) Low credit risk If the financial instrument has a low risk of default, the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term and adverse changes in economic and business conditions in the longer term may, but will not necessarily, reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfill its contractual cash flow obligations. (iii) Significant increase in credit risk The Company shall assess whether the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, using the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument, through the comparison of the risk of a default occurring on the financial 128 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition. To make that assessment, the Company shall consider reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, and that is indicative of significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition, including forward-looking information. The information considered by the Company are as following: Significant changes in internal price indicators of credit risk as a result of a change in credit risk since inception Existing or forecast adverse change in the business, financial or economic conditions of the borrower that results in a significant change in the borrower’s ability to meet its debt obligations; An actual or expected significant change in the operating results of the borrower; An actual or expected significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the borrower; 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 borrower’s economic incentive to make scheduled contractual payments or to otherwise influence the probability of a default occurring; Significant change that are expected to reduce the borrower’s economic incentive to make scheduled contractual payments; 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 instrument; Significant changes in the expected performance and behavior of the borrower; Contractual payments are more than 30 days past due. 129 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. Depending on the nature of the financial instruments, the Company shall assess whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition on an individual financial instrument or a group of financial instruments. When assessed based on a group of financial instruments, the Company can group financial instruments on the basis of shared credit risk characteristics, for example, past due information and credit risk rating. Generally, the Company shall determine the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due. The Company can only rebut this presumption if the Company has reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort, that demonstrates that the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition even though the contractual payments are more than 30 days past due. (iv) Credit-impaired financial asset The Company shall assess at each reporting date whether the credit impairment has occurred for financial asset at amortised cost. A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of that financial asset have occurred. Evidences that a financial asset is credit-impaired include observable data about the following events: Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower;a breach of contract, such as a default or past due event; the lender(s) of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, having granted to the borrower a concession(s) that the lender(s) would not otherwise consider;it is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;the purchase or origination of a financial asset at a deep discount that reflects the incurred credit losses. (v) Presentation of impairment of expected credit loss In order to reflect the changes of credit risk of financial instrument since initial recognition, the Company shall at each reporting date remeasure the expected credit loss and recognise in profit or loss, as an impairment gain or loss, the amount of expected credit losses addition (or reversal). For financial asset at amortised cost, the loss allowance shall reduce the carrying amount of the financial asset in the statement of financial position. 130 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. (vi) Write-off The Company shall directly reduce the gross carrying amount of a financial asset when the Company has no reasonable expectations of recovering the contractual cash flow of a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. Such write-off constitutes a derecognition of the financial asset. This circumstance usually occurs when the Company determines that the debtor has no assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flow to repay the write-off amount. Recovery of financial asset written off shall be recognised in profit or loss as reversal of impairment loss. (5) Determination of fair value of financial instruments Determination of fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities please refer to NoteV (10). 10. Fair Value Measurement Fair value refers to 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. The Company determines fair value of the related assets and liabilities based on market value in the principal market, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market price for the related asset or liability. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. The principal market is the market in which transactions for an asset or liability take place with the greatest volume and frequency. The most advantageous market is the market which maximizes the value that could be received from selling the asset and minimizes the value which is needed to be paid in order to transfer a liability, considering the effect of transport costs and transaction costs both. If the active market of the financial asset or financial liability exists, the Company shall measure the fair value using the quoted price in the active market. If the active market of the financial instrument is not available, the Company shall measure the fair value using valuation techniques. 131 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. Valuation techniques The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, including the market approach, the income approach and the cost approach. The Company shall use valuation techniques consistent with one or more of those approaches to measure fair value. If multiple valuation techniques are used to measure fair value, the results shall be evaluated considering the reasonableness of the range of values indicated by those results. A fair value measurement is the point within that range that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances. When using the valuation technique, the Company shall give the priority to relevant observable inputs. The unobservable inputs can only be used when relevant observable inputs is not available or practically would not be obtained. Observable inputs refer to the information which is available from market and reflects the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable Inputs refer to the information which is not available from market and it has to be developed using the best information available in the circumstances from the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. Fair value hierarchy To Company establishes a fair value hierarchy that categorises into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and second to the Level 2 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) 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. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. 11. Inventories (1) Classification of inventories 132 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. Inventories are finished goods or products held for sale in the ordinary course of business, in the process of production for such sale, or in the form of materials or supplies to be consumed in the production process, including raw materials, Inventories mainly include raw materials, materials for consigned processing, goods in progress, commodity stocks and goods in transit. (2) Measurement method of cost of inventories Cost of raw materials and cost of materials for consigned processing are calculated using the weighted average method. The Company adopts the standard cost method for the goods in transit and commodity stocks. At the end of the period, the difference between the standard cost and the actual cost will be shared among the goods in transit, commodity stocks and operating costs. (3) Inventory system The perpetual inventory system is adopted. The inventories should be counted at least once a year, and surplus or losses of inventory stocktaking shall be included in current profit and loss. (4) Provision for impairment of inventory Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The excess of cost over net realizable value of the inventories is recognised as provision for impairment of inventory, and recognised in current profit or loss. Net realizable value of the inventory should be determined on the basis of reliable evidence obtained, and factors such as purpose of holding the inventory and impact of post balance sheet event shall be considered. The Company determines the proportion of providing impairment of commodity stocks according to the industry characteristics, product sales strategy, sales price and other elements. The specific proportion of providing impairment is as follows: Aging Proportion of providing impairment (%) Within 1 year (inclusive) - 1-2 years 30.00 2-3 years 50.00 Over 3 years 100.00 133 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. No provision for impairment loss of goods in transit needs to be calculated considering that such goods had been deliveried to the customers. For raw materials that are damaged, sluggish and other impairment conditions, the provisions for inventory impairment are determined on an individual basis. For all other cases, the provisions for raw materials impairment are determined on an aging basis. The specific proportion of providing impairment is as follows: Aging Proportion of providing impairment (%) Within 1 year (inclusive) - 1-2 years 30.00 2-3 years 50.00 Over 3 years 100.00 If any factor rendering write-downs of the inventories has been eliminated at the reporting date, the amounts written down are recovered and reversed to the extent of the inventory impairment, which has been provided for. The reversal shall be included in profit or loss. 12. Long-term Equity Investments The Company's long-term equity investment only includes the equity investments where an investor has control of. (1) Determination of initial investment cost Long-term equity investments generated in business combinations, the investment cost shall be determined based on the following requirements: For a business combination involving enterprises under common control, if the Company makes payment in cash as the consideration for the business combination, the share of carrying amount of the owners’ equity of the acquiree in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party is recognised as the initial cost of the long-term equity investment on the combination date. The difference between the initial investment cost and the carrying amount of cash paid shall be adjusted against the capital reserve; if capital reserve is not enough to be offset, undistributed profit shall be offset in turn. 134 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. Long-term equity investments acquired not through the business combination, the investment cost shall be determined based on the following requirements: For long-term equity investments acquired by payments in cash, the initial cost is the actually paid purchase cost. (2) Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss Long-term equity investment to an entity over which the Company has ability of control shall be accounted for at cost method. For Long-term equity investment at cost method, cost of the long-term equity investment shall be adjusted when additional amount is invested or a part of it is withdrawn. The Company recognises its share of cash dividends or profits which have been declared to distribute by the investee as current investment income. (3) Impairment testing and provision for impairment loss For investment in subsidiaries , provision for impairment loss please refer to Notes V (16). 13. Fixed assets (1) Recognition criteria of fixed assets Fixed assets will only be recognised at the actual cost paid when obtaining as all the following criteria are satisfied: (i) It is probable that the economic benefits relating to the fixed assets will flow into the Company; (ii) The costs of the fixed assets can be measured reliably. Subsequent expenditure for fixed assets shall be recorded in cost of fixed assets, if recognition criteria of fixed assets are satisfied, otherwise the expenditure shall be recorded in current profit or loss when incurred. (2) Depreciation methods of fixed assets The Company begins to depreciate the fixed asset from the next month after it is available for intended use using the straight-line-method. The estimated useful life and annual depreciation rates which are 135 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. determined according to the categories, estimated economic useful lives and estimated net residual rates of fixed assets are listed as followings: Depreciation Estimated useful Category Residual Category method life (year) Buildings and Straight line 23.67-30 years 5.00 3.17-4.01 constructions depreciation Straight line Vehicles 6 years 5.00 15.83 depreciation Machinery Straight line 5-10 years 5.00 9.5-19.00 equipment depreciation Electrical Straight line 3 years 5.00 31.67 equipment depreciation For the fixed assets with impairment provided, the impairment provision should be excluded from the cost when calculating depreciation. At the end of reporting period, the Company shall review the useful life, estimated net residual value and depreciation method of the fixed assets. Estimated useful life of the fixed assets shall be adjusted if it is changed compared to the original estimation. 14. Construction in Progress (a) Classification of construction in progress Construction in progress is measured on an individual project basis. (b) Recognition criteria and timing of transfer from construction in progress to fixed assets The initial book values of the fixed assets are stated at total expenditures incurred before they are ready for their intended use, including construction costs, original price of machinery equipment, other necessary expenses incurred to bring the construction in progress to get ready for its intended use. The construction in progress shall be transferred to fixed asset when the installation or construction is ready for the intended use. For construction in progress that has been ready for their intended use but relevant budgets for the completion of projects have not been completed, the estimated values of project budgets, prices, or actual costs should be included in the costs of relevant fixed assets, and depreciation should be provided according to relevant policies of the Company when the fixed assets are ready for intended use. After the completion of budgets needed for the completion 136 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. of projects, the estimated values should be substituted by actual costs, but depreciation already provided is not adjusted. 15. Intangible Assets (a) Measurement method of intangible assets Intangible assets are recognised at actual cost at acquisition. (b) The useful life and amortisation of intangible assets The estimated useful lives of the intangible assets with finite useful lives are as follows: Category Estimated useful life Basis Land use rights 50 years Legal life The service life is determined by reference to the Software 10 years period that can bring economic benefits to the Company For intangible assets with finite useful life, the estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed annually at the end of each reporting period and adjusted when necessary. No change has incurred in current year in the estimated useful life and amortisation method upon review. (3) Criteria of classifying expenditures on internal research and development projects into research phase and development phase ①Preparation activities related to materials and other relevant aspects undertaken by the Company for the purpose of further development shall be treated as research phase. ②Development activities after the research phase of the Company shall be treated as development phase.. The Company only includes the expenditures incurred during the research phase of internal research and development projects, which shall be recognised in profit or loss when incurred. 137 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. 16. Impairment of Long-Term Assets Impairment loss of long-term equity investment in subsidiaries, fixed assets ,constructions in progress, intangible assets, etc.(excluding inventories, deferred tax assets, financial assets), shall be determined according to following method: The Company shall assess at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company shall estimate the recoverable amount of the asset and test for impairment. The recoverable amounts of the long-term assets are the higher of their fair values less costs to dispose and the present values of the estimated future cash flows of the long-term assets. The Company estimate the recoverable amounts on an individual basis. If it is difficult to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the groups of assets that the individual asset belongs to. Identification of a group of asset is based on whether the cash inflows from it are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. If, and only if, the recoverable amount of an asset or a group of assets is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset shall be reduced to its recoverable amount and the provision for impairment loss shall be recognised accordingly. The mentioned impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent accounting period once it had been recognised. 17. Long-term Deferred Expenses Long-term deferred expenses are various expenses already incurred, which shall be amortised over current and subsequent periods with the amortisation period exceeding one year. Long-term deferred expenses are evenly amortised over the beneficial period and the amortised period for each expense are as following: Item Amortisation period Decoration costs Expected benefit period 138 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. 18. Employee Benefits (1) Short-term employee benefits (i) Employee basic salary (salary, bonus, allowance, subsidy) The Company recognises, in the accounting period in which an employee provides service, actually occurred short-term employee benefits as a liability, with a corresponding charge to current profit except for those recognised as capital expenditure based on the requirement of accounting standards. (ii) Employee welfare The Company shall recognise the employee welfare based on actual amount when incurred into current profit or loss or related capital expenditure. Employee welfare shall be measured at fair value as it is a non-monetary benefits. (iii) Social insurance such as medical insurance, work injury insurance and maternity insurance, housing funds, labor union fund and employee education fund Payments made by the Company of social insurance for employees, such as medical insurance, work injury insurance and maternity insurance, payments of housing funds, and labor union fund and employee education fund accrued in accordance with relevant requirements, in the accounting period in which employees provide services, is calculated according to required accrual bases and accrual ratio in determining the amount of employee benefits and the related liabilities, which shall be recognised in current profit or loss or the cost of relevant asset. (2) Post-employment benefits Defined contribution plans The Company shall recognise, in the accounting period in which an employee provides service, the contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as a liability, with a corresponding charge to the current profit or loss or the cost of a relevant asset. 139 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. (3) Termination benefits The Company providing termination benefits to employees shall recognise an employee benefits liability for termination benefits, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss of the reporting period, at the earlier of the following dates: (i) When the Company cannot unilaterally withdraw the offer of termination benefits because of an employment termination plan or a curtailment proposal. (ii) When the Company recognises costs or expenses related to a restructuring that involves the payment of termination benefits. 19. Estimated Liabilities (a) Recognition criteria of estimated liabilities The Company recognises the estimated liabilities when obligations related to contingencies satisfy all the following conditions: (i) That obligation is a current obligation of the Company; (ii) It is likely to cause any economic benefit to flow out of the Company as a result of performance of the obligation; and (iii) The amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. (b) Measurement method of estimated liabilities The estimated liabilities of the Company are initially measured at the best estimate of expenses required for the performance of relevant present obligations. The Company, when determining the best estimate, has had a comprehensive consideration of risks with respect to contingencies, uncertainties and the time value of money. The carrying amount of the estimated liabilities shall be reviewed at the end of every reporting period. If conclusive evidences indicate that the carrying amount fails to be the best estimate of the estimated liabilities, the carrying amount shall be adjusted based on the updated best estimate. 140 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. The specific measurement method of estimated liabilities due to expected sales return: The Company shall be measured estimated liabilities at 0.5 percent of the sales amount in the last month prior to the balance sheet date. 20. Revenue (1) General Principles Revenue is defined as the gross inflow of economic benefits arising in the course of the ordinary activities of the Company when those inflows result in the increases in shareholders’ equity, other than increases relating to contributions from shareholders. The Company shall recognise revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in the contract as the customer obtains control of a good . Control of a good refers to the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining economic benefits from, the good or service. The Company shall recognise revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in the contract as the customer obtains control of a good . Control of a good refers to the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining economic benefits from, the good or service. The Company shall recognise revenue at the point in which a customer obtains control of a promised good or service if a performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time. To determine the point in time at which a customer obtains control of a promised good or service, the Company shall consider indicators of the transfer of control, which include, but are not limited to, the followings: (i) The Company has a present right to payment for the good or service – a customer is presently obliged to pay for the good or service; (ii) The Company has transferred legal title of an asset to a customer - the customer has legal title to the asset; (iii) The Company has transferred physical possession of an asset to a customer - the customer has physical possession of the asset; (iv) The Company has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to a customer - the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset; 141 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. (v) The customer has accepted the asset. Sale with a right of return For sales with a right of return, when the customer obtains the control of a product, the Company shall recognise revenue for the transferred products in the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled and a refund liability at the amounts receivable for which the Company does not expect to be entitled; meanwhile, an asset shall be recognised as receivables on the cost of return measured at the former carrying amount of the product expected to be returned less any expected costs to recover those products (including potential decreases in the value to the entity of returned products), and the net amount of the former carrying amount of the product when transferred to the customer less above mentioned cost shall be recorded into the cost of sales. At the end of each reporting period, the Company shall re-assess the expectations about the sales return and remeasure above mentioned assets and liabilities. (2) Specific Method Revenue recognition methods of the Company are as follows: According to the contract of sales of goods between the Company and the customer, the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring goods to the customer, which is a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time. The specific method about online clothing sales recognition of the Company are as follows: Revenue can be recognised when one of the following condition is satisfied: (1)the Company has transferred the promised goods to the receiver's address, which filled in the order placed by the end-customers and the end-customer has clicked "confirm receipt" button; (2)The Company has transferred the promised goods to the receiver's address, which filled in the order placed by the end-customers, and the system automatically confirms receipt after the given time according to the rules made by the platform, and platform gave the money to the seller. 21. Government Grants (a) Recognition of government grants 142 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. A government grant shall not be recgonised until there is reasonable assurance that: (i) The Company will comply with the conditions attaching to them; and (ii) The grants will be received. (b) Measurement of government grants Monetary grants from the government shall be measured at amount received or receivable. (c) Accounting for government grants (i) Government grants related to assets Government grants pertinent to assets mean the government grants that are obtained by the Company used for purchase or construction, or forming the long-term assets by other ways. Government grants pertinent to assets shall be recognised as deferred income, and should be recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the useful lives of the relevant assets. When the relevant assets are sold, transferred, written off or damaged before the assets are terminated, the remaining deferred income shall be transferred into profit or loss of the period of disposing relevant assets. (ii) Government grants related to income Government grants other than related to assets are classified as government grants related to income. Government grants related to income are accounted for in accordance with the following principles: If the government grants related to income are used to compensate the enterprise’s relevant expenses or losses in future periods, such government grants shall be recognised as deferred income and included into profit or loss in the same period as the relevant expenses or losses are recognised; If the government grants related to income are used to compensate the enterprise’s relevant expenses or losses incurred, such government grants are directly recognised into current profit or loss. For government grants comprised of part related to assets as well as part related to income, each part is accounted for separately; if it is difficult to identify different part, the government grants are accounted for as government grants related to income as a whole. 143 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. Government grants related to daily operation activities are recognised in other income in accordance with the nature of the activities, and government grants irrelevant to daily operation activities are recognised in non-operating income. 22. Deferred Tax Assets and Deferred Tax Liabilities Temporary differences are differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the statement of financial position and its tax base at the balance sheet date. The Company recognise and measure the effect of taxable temporary differences and deductible temporary differences on income tax as deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets using liability method. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities shall not be discounted. (a) Recognition of deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets should be recognised for deductible temporary differences, the carryforward of unused tax losses and the carryforward of unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, the carryforward of unused tax losses and the carryforward of unused tax credits can be utilised at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised, unless the deferred tax asset arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that: (i) Is not a business combination; and (ii) At the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss) The Company shall recognise a deferred tax asset for all deductible temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, only to the extent that, it is probable that: (i) The temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future; and (ii) Taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised. At the end of each reporting period, if there is sufficient evidence that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized, the Company recognises a previously unrecognised deferred tax asset. 144 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset shall be reviewed at the end of each reporting period. The Company shall reduce the carrying amount of a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of that deferred tax asset to be utilised. Any such reduction shall be reversed to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available. (b) Recognition of deferred tax liabilities A deferred tax liability shall be recognised for all taxable temporary differences at the tax rate that are expected to apply to the period when the liability is settled. (c) Recognition of deferred tax liabilities or assets involved in special transactions or events (i) Unused tax losses and unused tax credits Unused tax losses and unused tax credits generated from daily operation of the Company itself Deductible loss refers to the loss calculated and permitted according to the requirement of tax law that can be offset against taxable income in future periods. The criteria for recognising deferred tax assets arising from the carryforward of unused tax losses and tax credits are the same as the criteria for recognising deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences. The Company recognises a deferred tax asset arising from unused tax losses or tax credits only to the extent that there is convincing other evidence that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised by the Company. Income taxes in current profit or loss shall be deducted as well. (ii) Temporary difference generated in consolidation elimination When preparing consolidated financial statements, if temporary difference between carrying value of the assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and their taxable bases is generated from elimination of inter-company unrealized profit or loss, deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities shall be recognised in the consolidated financial statements, and income taxes expense in current profit or loss shall be adjusted as well except for deferred tax related to transactions or events recognised directly in equity and business combination. 145 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. 23. Leases (1) Accounting treatment method for operating lease (a) Identifying a lease At inception of a contract, the Company shall assess whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of one or more identified assets for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time, the Company shall assess whether, throughout the period of use, the customer has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset and to direct the use of the identified asset. The Company includes only leases as lessee. (b) Identifying a separate lease component When a contract includes more than one separate lease components, the Company shall separate components of the contract and account for each lease component separately. The right to use an underlying asset is a separate lease component if both conditions have been satisfied: (i) the lessee can benefit from use of the underlying asset either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the lessee; (ii) the underlying asset is neither highly dependent on, nor highly interrelated with, the other underlying assets in the contract. (c) The Company as a lessee At the commencement date, the Company identifies the lease that has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not contain a purchase option as a short-term lease. A lease qualifies as a lease of a low- value asset if the nature of the asset is such that, when new, the asset is typically of low value less than RMB50,000. If the Company subleases an asset, or expects to sublease an asset, the head lease does not qualify as a lease of a low-value asset. For asset included in short-term leases or leases for which the underlying asset is of low value/ all the short-term leases or leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, the Company shall recognise the lease payments associated with those leases as cost of relevant asset or expenses in current profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 146 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. Except for the election of simple treatment as short-term lease or lease of a low-value asset as mentioned above, at the commencement date, the Company shall recognise a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. (i) Right-of-use asset A right-of-use asset is an asset that represents a lessee’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. At the commencement date, the Company shall initially measure the right-of-use asset at cost. The cost of the right-of-use asset shall comprise: the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability; any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received; any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and 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. The Company recognises and measures the cost in accordance with the recognition criteria and measurement method for estimated liabilities, details please refer to Notes 5.18. Those costs incurred to produce inventories shall be included in the cost of inventories. The right-of-use asset shall be depreciated according to the categories using straight‐line method. If it is reasonably certain that the ownership of the underlying asset shall be transferred to the lessee by the end of the lease term, the depreciation rate shall be determined based on the classification of the right-of- use asset and estimated residual value rate from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the depreciation rate shall be determined based on the classification of the right-of-use asset from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The depreciation method, estimated useful life, residual rates and annual depreciation rates which are determined according to the categories of right-of-use asset are listed as followings: Category Depreciation method Estimated useful life (year) Buildings and constructions Straight line method Lease term 147 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. (ii) Lease liability At the commencement date, the lease liability shall be measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following 5 items: fixed payments and in-substance fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable; variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate; the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option; payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease; amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees. In order to calculate the present value of the lease payments, interest rate implicit in the lease shall be used as the discount rate. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company shall use the incremental borrowing rate. The difference between the lease payments and its present value shall be recognised as unrecognised financing charges, calculated bases on the discount rate of the present value of the lease payments in each period within the lease term and recorded as interest expense in current profit or loss. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of lease liabilities shall be recognised in current profit or loss when incurred. After the commencement date, the Company shall remeasure the lease liability based on the revised present value of the lease payments and adjust the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset if there is a change in the in-substance fixed payments, or change in the amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or change in an index or a rate used to determine lease payments, or change in the assessment or exercising of an option to purchase the underlying asset, or an option to extend or terminate the lease. (d) Lease modifications (i) A lease modification accounted for as a separate lease The Company shall account for a modification to a lease as a separate lease, if both: 148 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. 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. (ii) A lease modification not accounted for as a separate lease The Company as a lessee At the effective date of the lease modification, the Company shall redetermine the lease term of the modified lease and remeasure the lease liability by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate. The revised discount rate is determined as the interest rate implicit in the lease for the remainder of the lease term, if that rate can be readily determined, or the incremental borrowing rate at the effective date of the modification, if the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined. The Company shall account for the remeasurement of the lease liability by: decreasing the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease for lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease or shorten the lease term. The Company shall recognise in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease. Making a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset for all other lease modifications. 24. Important accounting policies and estimates The Company continuously assesses the significant accounting estimates and key assumptions according to its historical experiences and other elements, including reasonable expectations on the future events. The significant estimates and key assumptions that may result in significant adjustment on the assets and liabilities’ carrying value in the following fiscal year are listed as below: (i)Classification of financial assets 149 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. Significant estimates and key assumptions involved in classification of financial assets include determination of business model and contractual cash flow characteristics. The Company’s business model is determined at a level that reflects how groups of financial assets are managed. Evidences that the Company must consider include but not limited to: how the performance of the business model and the financial assets held within that business model are evaluated and reported to the entity’s key management personnel; the risks that affect the performance of financial assets and their management methods; how managers of the business are compensated. In order to assess whether the contractual cash flows are consistent with a basic lending arrangement, the Company must consider whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of the principal (for example, if the asset can be prepaid before maturity) and whether the interest consists of consideration for time value of the money, credit risk, other basic lending risk and costs, as well as profit margin. For example, the Company shall consider whether the prepayment amount substantially represents unpaid amounts of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding as well as reasonable additional compensation for the early termination of the contract. (ii)Deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets shall be recognised for all unused taxable losses to the extent that it is probable that the taxable profits will be available against which unused tax losses can be utilised. It requires management to estimate the time and amount of future taxable profits using plenty of judgment so as to determine the amount to be recognised as deferred tax assets, taking into consideration of the tax planning strategy. (iii) Provision for impairment of inventory For inventories, net realisable value is determined at the estimated selling price less the estimated costs of completion, the estimated selling expenses and relevant taxes. Net realizable value of the inventory should be determined on the basis of reliable evidence obtained, and factors such as purpose of holding the inventory and impact of post balance sheet event shall be considered. 150 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. The excess of cost over net realizable value of the inventories is recognised as provision for impairment of inventory.The difference between the actual result and the original estimate will affect the carrying value of the inventory and the provision for the inventory. (iv) Fair value of unlisted equity investments The fair value of unlisted equity investments is the projected future cash flows discounted at the current discount rate of projects with similar terms and risk characteristics. Such valuation requires the Company to estimate expected future cash flows and discount rates and is therefore subject to uncertainty. In limited circumstances, if the information used to determine fair value is insufficient, or if the possible estimates of fair value are widely distributed, and the cost represents the best estimate of fair value within that range, the cost may represent its appropriate estimate of fair value within that range. 25. Changes in Significant Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates (a) Changes in accounting polices Implementation of the Accounting Standards Interpretation for Business Enterprises No. 16 "Accounting treatment of deferred income tax related to assets and liabilities arising from single transactions not applicable to the initial recognition exemption" The implementation of No. 16 has no significant impact on the company's financial statements during the reporting period.

Risks related to financial instruments Risks related to the financial instruments of the Company arise from the recognition of various financial assets and financial liabilities during its operation, including credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. Management of the Company is responsible for determining risk management objectives and policies related to financial instruments. Operational management is responsible for the daily risk management through functional departments. Internal audit department is responsible for the daily supervision of implementation of the risk management policies and procedures, and report their findings to the audit committee in a timely manner. Overall risk management objective of the Company is to establish risk management policies to minimize the risks without unduly affecting the competitiveness and resilience of the Company. 1. Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of one party of the financial instrument face to a financial loss because the other party of the financial instrument fails to fulfill its obligation. The credit risk of the Company is related to cash and equivalent,and other receivables,etc. Credit risk of these financial assets is derived from the counterparty’s breach of contract. The maximum risk exposure is equal to the carrying amount of these financial instruments. 179 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. Cash and cash equivalent of the Company has lower credit risk, as they are mainly deposited in such financial institutions as commercial bank, of which the Company thinks with higher reputation and financial position. For other receivables, the Company establishes related policies to control their credit risk exposure. The Company assesses credit capability of its customers and determines their credit terms based on their financial position, possibility of the guarantee from third party, credit record and other factors . The Company monitors its customers’ credit record periodically, and for those customers with poor credit record, the Company will take measures such as written call, shortening or cancelling their credit terms so as to ensure the overall credit risk of the Company is controllable. (1) Determination of significant increases in credit risk The Company assesses at each reporting date as to whether the credit risk on financial instruments has increased significantly since initial recognition. When the Company determines whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, it considers based on reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort, including quantitative and qualitative analysis of historical information, external credit ratings and forward-looking information. The Company determines the changes in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument through comparing 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 based on individual financial instrument or a group of financial instruments with the similar credit risk characteristics. When met one or more of the following quantitative or qualitative criteria, the Company determines that the credit risk on financial instruments has increased significantly: the quantitative criteria applied mainly because as at the reporting date, the increase in the probability of default occurring over the lifetime is more than a certain percentage since the initial recognition; the qualitative criteria applied if the debtor has adverse changes in business and economic conditions, early warning list of customer, and etc. (2) Definition of credit-impaired financial assets 180 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. The criteria adopted by the Company for determination of credit impairment are consistent with internal credit risk management objectives of relevant financial instruments in considering both quantitative and qualitative indicators. When the Company assesses whether the debtor has incurred the credit impairment, the main factors considered are as following: Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower; a breach of contract, e.g., default or past-due event; a lender having granted a concession to the borrower for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty that the lender would not otherwise consider; the probability that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial re- organisation; the disappearance of an active market for the financial asset because of financial difficulties of the issuer or the borrower; the purchase or origination of a financial asset at a deep discount that reflects the incurred credit losses. The credit impairment of financial assets may be caused by the combination of multiple events, not necessarily by individually identifiable events. (3) The parameter of expected credit loss measurement The company measures impairment provision for different assets with the expected credit loss of 12- month or the lifetime based on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk or credit impairment has occurred. The key parameters for expected credit loss measurement include default probability, default loss rate and default risk exposure. The Company sets up the model of default probability, default loss rate and default risk exposure in considering the quantitative analysis of historical statistics and forward-looking information. Relevant definitions are as following: Default probability refers to the probability of the debtor will fail to discharge the repayment obligation over the next 12 months or the entire remaining lifetime; Default loss rate refers to the Company's expectation of the loss degree of default risk exposure. The default loss rate varies depending on the type of counterparty, recourse method and priority, and the collateral. The default loss rate is the percentage of the risk exposure loss when default has occurred and it is calculated over the next 12 months or the entire lifetime; 181 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. The default risk exposure refers to the amount that the company should be repaid when default has occurred in the next 12 months or the entire lifetime. Both the assessment of significant increase in credit risk of forward-looking information and the calculation of expected credit losses involve forward-looking information. Through historical data analysis, the Company identifies key economic indicators that have impact on the credit risk and expected credit losses for each business. The maximum exposure to credit risk of the Company is the carrying amount of each financial asset in the statement of financial position. The Company does not provide any other guarantees that may expose the Company to credit risk. For the other receivables of the Company, the amount of top 5 clients represents 89.59% of the total (31 December 2022:100.00%) 2. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk of shortage of funds when fulfilling the obligation of settlement by delivering cash or other financial assets. The Company is responsible for the capital management of all of its subsidiaries, including short-term investment of cash surplus and dealing with forecasted cash demand by raising loans. The Company’s policy is to monitor the demand for short-term and long- term floating capital and whether the requirement of loan contracts is satisfied so as to ensure to maintain adequate cash and cash equivalents. As at 31 December 2023, the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities is as follows: December 31, 2023 项目名称 Within 1 year Within 1 year Accounts payable 58,163,158.46 Other payments 8,995,145.79 合计 67,158,304.25 (Continued) December 31, 2022 项目名称 Within 1 year Within 1 year Accounts payable 82,251,827.41 11,354,443.77 Other payments 9,476,184.89 307,898.05 合计 91,728,012.30 11,662,341.82 182 Full Text of the 2023 Annual Report of Rumere Co., Ltd. 3. Market risk (1) Foreign currency risk Foreign currency risk of the Company mainly arise from foreign currency assets and liabilities denominated in currency other than the Company’s functional currency. The foreign currency risk the Company is subject to is mainly related to the purchase raw materials denominated in EUR and USD. Except for the operations of the Company’s subsidiaries Rumere International are denominated and settled in USD and EUR, other main operations of the Company are settled in RMB. (2) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk of the Company primarily arises from bank debts. Financial liabilities with floating interest rate make the Company subject to cash flow interest rate risk, and financial liabilities with fixed interest rate make the Company subject to fair value interest rate risk. The Company determines the relative proportion of the fixed interest contracts and floating interest contracts based on the current market environment. Finance department of the Company’s headquarter monitors interest rate of the group continuously. Increase of the interest rate will result in the increase of the cost of new interest-bearing debts and the interest expense of the unpaid interest-bearing debts with floating rate, and subsequently lead to significant negative impact on the financial performance of the Company. The management makes adjustment in accordance with the update market condition in a timely manner. XII. Fair value disclosure 1.
