Industry in which the Company operated during the reporting period (I) Basic Overview of the Industry The Company is primarily engaged in providing clean room system integration engineering solutions for the advanced manufacturing industry as a professional service provider. According to the classification standards of the “National Economic Industry Classification” and the “Industry Classification Guidelines for Listed Companies” issued by the CSRC, the Company’s clean room engineering service belongs to the sub- category “E49 – Building Installation” within the “E – Construction” industry. From the perspective of the industrial chain, the clean room industry can be divided into upstream supply, midstream construction, and downstream applications. Specifically: - Upstream involves suppliers of building materials, system equipment, and electromechanical equipment, which directly impact the progress and completion of projects. Their prices directly affect the industry’s costs and significantly influence the profits of industry enterprises. - Midstream encompasses the Company’s industry, mainly including engineering survey, engineering design, and engineering construction processes. - Downstream refers to industries that require clean rooms in their production or operation processes, mainly in the fields of integrated circuits (IC), photovoltaics, and display panels. The IC semiconductor industry in the electronics sector is currently the primary downstream industry for clean room engineering, and its development significantly influences the future development of industry enterprises. It drives the demand for clean room engineering services, which are fulfilled by industry enterprises. With the continuous advancement of industrial technology, downstream industries constantly raise their requirements for clean rooms, thereby pushing industry enterprises to continually research and develop new technologies, and apply new construction techniques to adapt to the changing market demand. The Company focuses on the integrated engineering of clean room systems in the advanced manufacturing industry, with the “Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Operation (EPCO)”. It can provide clean workshop construction planning, design suggestions, equipment configuration, clean room environmental system integration engineering, and maintenance services, belonging to the midstream construction industry of the clean room industry chain. Cleanroom Industry Chain Diagram Upstream Supply Midstream Downstream Construction Applications IC Semiconductor Building Engineering Survey Materials/Hardware Optoelectronic Panels Fire Protection/Control Precision Equipment Manufacturing Engineering Design Biopharmaceuticals Air conditioning/Purification Equipment Food & Chemicals Electromechanical/Lighting Engineering Aerospace Equipment, etc. Construction New Energy, etc. (II) Development Overview of Clean Room Industry The development of the clean room industry in China began in the 1960s, drawing on the early technology of the former Soviet Union, mainly used in national defense, aerospace, atomic energy, and scientific research, and later gradually expanded to the control of environmental conditions in industries such 13 / 250 Annual Report 2023 as precision machinery, non-ferrous metal purification in metallurgical systems, and pulling monocrystalline silicon. The clean room industry in China experienced vigorous development from the 1970s to the 1990s. In 1977, the first high-level biological clean room was established, and since the 1980s, the construction of biological clean rooms has gradually increased, extensively used in the daily chemical industry. Subsequently, clean rooms began to be applied in the pharmaceutical and food industries, especially after the announcement of China’s GMP certification in 1982, leading to a significant increase in the demand for clean room construction in the pharmaceutical industry. The construction of clean rooms for medical facilities such as aseptic operating rooms also rapidly expanded. After the reform and opening up, the introduction of foreign-funded enterprises led to the widespread application of higher-level air cleaning technologies in various fields. From the 1990s to the present, China’s technological level has been developing vigorously. The global transfer of production capacity in precision electronics such as semiconductors and new displays has accelerated towards China, greatly increasing the market demand and technological research and development level of the clean room industry as a result of advances in the research and development of pharmaceuticals and biotechnology. This has effectively driven the rapid development of China’s clean room industry. In order to achieve the strategic goal of “carbon neutrality,” China will reduce carbon emissions through energy substitution, energy conservation, and efficiency improvement. According to data from the National Energy Administration, it is expected that during the “14th Five-Year Plan” period, China’s average annual increase in newly installed photovoltaic capacity will be between 70-90GW. As an important part of the construction of solar cell production plants, the demand for the construction of clean rooms will continue to grow alongside the vigorous development of photovoltaic production lines. (III) Cyclical Characteristics of the Clean Room Industry The downstream industries of the clean room engineering are influenced by the macroeconomic situation, industry policy regulation, and downstream industry investment conditions, and therefore show a certain cyclical characteristic. The main downstream industries of the clean room engineering industry are strategic emerging industries such as the electronics industry. In order to narrow the gap with developed countries and promote the development of intelligent manufacturing, information technology, and other industries in China, a number of policies have been formulated in China in recent years to promote the development of related industries. This has also led to a relatively stable and sustained development market trend in the clean room engineering industry. The “Outline of the Fourteenth Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development and the Long-Range Objectives Through the Year 2035 of the People’s Republic of China” clearly states the cultivation of advanced manufacturing clusters, promoting the innovative development of industries such as integrated circuits, aerospace, pharmaceuticals, and medical devices. It focuses on strategic emerging industries such as next-generation information technology, biotechnology, new energy, new materials, high- end equipment, new energy vehicles, green environmental protection, as well as aerospace, and marine equipment. Industrial policies not only promote the development of industries such as semiconductors and integrated circuits but also drive the development of the upstream industry, the clean room engineering 14 / 250 Annual Report 2023 industry. The continuous expansion of the scale of downstream industries, the ongoing process of localization substitution, the rise of new fields such as new energy and automotive electronics, and the gradual improvement in the quality of life of the population have provided good development opportunities for the clean room industry, with rapid construction of new production lines for downstream industry products.

Discussion and Analysis of the Future Development of the Company (I) Industry pattern and trend √ Applicable □ N/A (1) Strong demand from downstream industries, providing broad market space for the clean room industry In recent years, China has attached great importance to the semiconductor industry, and the “Outline for Promoting the Development of the National Integrated Circuit Industry”, “Made in China 2025”, “13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of National Strategic Emerging Industries”, “Several Policies for Promoting the Development of the Integrated Circuit Industry and the Software Industry in a New Era with High Quality”, and the “Fourteenth Five-Year” Plan and a number of favorable semiconductor localization policies have been introduced intensively, with the semiconductor market scale continues to expand, the relevant enterprises to build factories and expand production boom, driven by the rapid construction of clean room plant. Semiconductor industry is one of the most widely used high-end clean room applications, along with cloud computing, Internet of Things, big data, 5G and other new-generation information technology applications, as well as data centers, drones and other industrial development drive, the global semiconductor industry market size is showing steady growth. According to the World Fab Forecast, from 2022 to 2024, the global semiconductor industry plans to start operating 82 new fabs, including 11 projects in 2023 and 42 projects in 2024, with wafer sizes ranging from 300mm to 100mm. Wafer processing plant belongs to the semiconductor industry chain in the middle, its booming development will inevitably drive the industry chain upstream IC design and downstream packaging and testing expansion demand continues to intensify. From the announcement of Chinese semiconductor wafer foundry factories such as SMIC and Nexchip, it can be seen that the Chinese semiconductor industry is still actively laying out the production expansion boom continues to promote IC semiconductor and other high-end electronics manufacturing industry is the main field of the clean room project. According to the relevant data, the global cleanroom technology market size was US$ 3,900 million in 2022 and is expected to reach around US$ 6,960 million by 2032, with a projected compound annual growth rate of 5.97% during the 2023-2032 forecast period. Additionally, data from Zhiyan Consulting indicates that China’s cleanroom market is expected to reach approximately RMB 237,500 million by 2029. (2) Specialized clean room system integration engineering enterprises “value" advantage highlighted Clean room engineering belongs to the basic engineering of advanced manufacturing industry, which is an essential part of high-end manufacturing industry such as electronics industry. The development of advanced manufacturing industry is largely affected by the quality and level of clean room, and the development of related industries will undoubtedly promote the growth of the scale of clean room engineering. With different application fields, the focus of clean technology is also different. With the expansion of market space and the evolution of specialization of technical needs, the clean room engineering industry shows a trend of further specialization. In the electronics industry, the production program of specific precision electronic manufacturing usually requires factories to maintain 24-hour uninterrupted production, and clients have high requirements for the stability and reliability of clean rooms, which put forward higher requirements for the technical level 38 / 250 Annual Report 2023 and comprehensive management level of clean room engineering companies. Since it takes a long time to acquire the construction technology required for such clean room projects, only a few companies in the industry have the technical level to construct high-grade clean rooms in these fields. In order to minimize investment risks, reduce costs, and ensure product yields, owners usually choose to cooperate with engineering service companies that have rich experience, proven track records, and are leaders in the industry. Small and medium-sized industrial clients are limited by the lack of professional factory construction team, so they are more inclined to choose professional system integration engineering enterprises with rich experience in factory construction to provide services for them. The clean room industry is characterized by a large number of participants and intense competition in the low-end segment, with a fragmented market structure. In contrast, high-end clean rooms have stringent cleanliness requirements, and the investment scale of individual projects is generally larger. The cleanliness of the factory directly affects product yield, so project owners place greater emphasis on the historical project experience of the contractors. The bidding process is typically dominated by invitation-based tenders. As a provider of integrated clean room system solutions, the Company has undertaken numerous high-end clean room projects for high-tech manufacturing facilities in China, placing it at the forefront of the industry. It is one of the most competitive clean room engineering service providers in the Chinese market. (3) Southeast Asia’s “investment fever” drives the layout of clean room engineering enterprises to extend Southeast Asia is gradually becoming a global semiconductor technology investor must contend. Diplomat Magazine said that many countries in Southeast Asia has established a wide range of chip assembly, packaging and testing industry clusters. Electronic circuits (semiconductors) have been identified as one of Vietnam’s nine key national industries. The Vietnamese media quoted Linda Tan, Chairman of the Southeast Asian Semiconductor Industry Association, as saying that the Vietnamese semiconductor market is expected to grow by 6.12% in the period from 2022 to 2027; Southeast Asian countries represented by Singapore and Malaysia are already an important link in the global semiconductor industry chain. Compared with Singapore and Malaysia, which are at the forefront of the chip industry in Southeast Asia, Thailand, which is a regional automobile manufacturing center, focuses on building an automotive semiconductor industry chain. Various countries have implemented a range of policies to support industrial development. A review of industry policies in Southeast Asian nations reveals the following: The semiconductor companies’ investments in establishing manufacturing facilities in Southeast Asia will objectively promote the further development of the local industry. However, Southeast Asia also faces challenges in terms of power supply, technical workforce, and upstream and downstream industrial chain support. Accompanying the shift of industrial clients, based on announcements from relevant industry peers, a number of Chinese clean room construction companies have gradually set their sights on the Southeast Asian region, and have begun to seize the overseas market through measures such as establishing subsidiaries and increasing investment amounts. (II) Development strategy of the Company √ Applicable □ N/A The Company has conducted an analysis and forecast of the current macroeconomic situation and the long-term planning of infrastructure construction in the main business regions, and combined with its own 39 / 250 Annual Report 2023 actual situation, formulated the Company’s business development strategy and plan for the next three years, making reasonable expectations, plans and arrangements for the Company’s business development.

Combined with the Company’s future business development plan, we will enhance the Company’s overall human resource level in the following aspects: (1) Strengthen the continuing education of the employees, upgrade the qualification certificates of the employees, increase the qualification of the existing employees in construction, environment and other related practice, establish relevant incentive system to encourage colleagues, upgrade the number of employees with middle and senior titles, and encourage the on-the-job continuing learning of the serving colleagues. (2) Strengthen the construction of talent echelon, adopting the methods of rotation, academic upgrading, external project management training, internal trainer, position agent, etc. to cultivate middle-level cadres; adopting the methods of master-apprentice system, passing on skills, on-the-job education, and the “Reserve Cadre Academy” to cultivate grass-roots cadres and core backbone staffs. By “selecting, nurturing, utilizing, and retaining talents”, appropriate praise and affirmation, pertinent comments and suggestions, and positive expectations and concerns, we can form a succession of excellent cadres and a core reserve of manpower to meet the needs of future business development. (IV) Possible risks √ Applicable □ N/A 1. Macro policy risk The Company is mainly engaged in clean room engineering services for IC semiconductors, optoelectronics and other high-tech industries. The market of the Company’s downstream industries has a strong correlation with the macroeconomic development cycle, and the fluctuation of the economic growth rate and macro economy will directly affect the operation and development of the entire downstream industries, which will in turn have an impact on the operation of the clean room engineering services business. Therefore, the slowdown in economic growth and macroeconomic fluctuations will affect the Company’s business development and bring certain risks to the Company’s development and operation. 2. Industry competition risk After years of development, China’s clean room engineering industry has been growing and entering a steady development stage. With the entry of various types of social capital into the clean room industry, the number of enterprises in the industry is increasing year by year, and the market competition is relatively fierce. The Company’s service targets are mainly concentrated in the segmented market of electronic industry, and it has strong competitive strength and certain leading advantages. Acter Group is one of the enterprises in the industry that possesses the first-class qualification of general contracting for electromechanical engineering and the first-class qualification of specialized contracting for architectural electromechanical installation, and ranks upstream in the industry in terms of business performance, business level, market brand and management level, and has a certain degree of popularity in the industry. With the increasing number of entrants in the industry, the Company will face competition from enterprises in the same industry. Therefore, if the company fails to maintain its advantages in technology, management, brand name and process, the Company’s position in the industry will be affected to a certain extent. 3. Risk of gross profit rate fluctuation During the reporting period, the gross profit rate of the Company’s main business was 13.33%, with certain fluctuation compared with the same period of last year. The fluctuation of gross profit margin is mainly related to the intensity of competition, and factors such as cost control, technology level, project site management ability and client groups will also affect the change of gross profit margin to a certain extent. If the competition in the industry further intensifies in the future and the Company fails to take further measures to enhance its core competitiveness, the Company may face the risk of fluctuation in gross profit margin. 4. Risk of higher concentration of clients 41 / 250 Annual Report 2023 During the reporting period, the sales of the top five clients of the company amounted to RMB 889.0282 million, accounting for 44.25% of the total annual sales, with a high concentration of clients. It is mainly due to the fact that the company has high reputation and good word of mouth, and mainly undertakes key projects and large-scale projects in the industry, and the amount of individual projects is large. clean room engineering industry is a project-based business, the Company needs to continue to develop new clients, undertake new business to ensure that the Company’s operating results of sustained and stable growth, such as the Company’s market development strategy does not meet the market changes or does not meet the needs of clients, the Company’s existence can not be sustained, stable development of new clients and maintain the old clients to add new business may be, and thus face the risk of performance decline. 5. “Transnational” management risk The Company has been dedicated to providing clean room engineering services for high-tech manufacturing projects since its inception. After years of development, the Company has accumulated substantial expertise in business network layout, client resources, and technology. Particularly in recent years, the continuous growth of overseas business has not only promoted the Company’s development but also posed greater challenges to the Company’s risk control and asset management capabilities. If the Company’s management structure and capabilities cannot keep up with the needs of its sustained development, and its asset management ability fails to be correspondingly enhanced, it will constrain the Company’s development pace and potentially adversely impact its operating performance.

Other information includes the information covered in the 2023 annual report of Acter Group, but excludes the financial statements and our audit report. 100 / 250 Annual Report 2023 Our audit opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information, and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion on the other information. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, it is our responsibility to read the other information and, in doing so, to consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with, or appears to be materially misstated in relation to, the financial statements or our knowledge gained in the course of the audit. Based on the work we have performed, if we determine that other information is materially misstated, we shall report that fact. We have no matters to report in this regard. V. Management’s and Governance’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements The management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that present fairly, in accordance with the provisions of the Ind AS, and for designing, implementing and maintaining internal control 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 Acter Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and applying the going concern assumptions, unless management plans to liquidate Acter Group, discontinue operations or has no realistic alternative. Governance is responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of Acter Group. VI. CPA's Responsibility for the Audit of Financial Statements Our objective is 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 audit report containing an audit opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it does not guarantee that an audit performed in accordance with auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements may result from fraud or error and are generally considered to be material if it is reasonable to expect that the misstatements, individually or in the aggregate, could affect the economic decisions of users of financial statements based on the financial statements. We use professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism in performing the audit in accordance with auditing standards. We also perform the following tasks: (1) Identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures to address those risks, and obtaining sufficient appropriate audit evidence as a basis for an audit opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to error because fraud may involve collusion, forgery, willful omission, misrepresentation, or overriding internal controls. 101 / 250 Annual Report 2023 (2) Obtaining an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control. (3) Evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies selected and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. (4) Expressing a conclusion on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern assumption. At the same time, based on the audit evidence obtained, we conclude whether there is a material uncertainty regarding the matters or circumstances that may cast significant doubt on the ability of Acter Group to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, auditing standards require that we draw the attention of users of the financial statements to the relevant disclosures in our audit report; if the disclosures are not sufficient, we shall express an unqualified opinion. Our conclusions are based on information available at the date of the audit report. However, future events or circumstances may cause Acter Group to be unable to continue as a going concern. (5) Evaluating the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements and to evaluate whether the financial statements present fairly the related transactions and events. (6) Obtaining sufficient and appropriate audit evidence about the financial information of the entities or business activities of Acter Group to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for directing, supervising and performing the audit of the Group and accept full responsibility for the audit opinion. We communicate with governance on matters such as the scope, timing and significant findings of the planned audit, including internal control deficiencies of concern identified in our audit. We also provide governance with a statement of compliance with ethical requirements related to independence and communicate with governance all relationships and other matters that could reasonably be perceived to affect our independence, as well as related safeguards. From the matters communicated with governance, we determined which matters were most significant to the audit of the current financial statements and therefore constituted key audit matters. We describe these matters in our audit report except where public disclosure of the matters is prohibited by law or regulation or, in rare circumstances, we determine that a matter shall not be communicated in the audit report if it is reasonably foreseeable that the adverse consequences of communicating the matter would outweigh the benefits to the public interest.

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Group on March 29, 2024 by resolution. 125 / 250 Annual Report 2023 IV. Basis of Preparation of the Financial Statements 1. Basis of preparation The financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with the "Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises" issued by the Ministry of Finance (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "ASBE") and its application guidance, interpretations, and other relevant regulations, as well as the disclosure requirements of the China Securities Regulatory Commission's (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "CSRC") "General Provisions of Financial Reports - No. 15 - Rules on the Information Disclosure of Companies Issuing Securities" (Revised in 2023), based on the actual transactions and events. 2. Going concern √ Applicable □ N/A The Group evaluated its ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, and found no matters or circumstances that cast significant doubt on its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements are presented on a going concern basis. V. Significant Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates Specific accounting policies and accounting estimates √ Applicable □ N/A The preparation of financial statements requires the management of the Group to make estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The Group's management continually evaluates its judgment regarding critical assumptions and uncertainties involved in making estimates. The effects of changes in accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is changed and in future periods. The following accounting estimates and critical assumptions have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in future periods. (1) Revenue recognition Under the new revenue standard, the Group recognizes revenue from construction contracts over a period of time. The recognition of revenue and profit from construction depends on the Group's estimation of the outcome of the contract and the progress of performance. If the actual amount of total revenues and total costs incurred is higher or lower than management's estimates, it will affect the amount of revenue and profit recognized by the Group in future periods; (2) Impairment of receivables and contract assets Effective January 1, 2019, the Group uses the expected credit loss model to assess the impairment of financial instruments. The application of the expected credit loss model requires significant judgments and estimates that take into account all reasonable and supportable information, including forward-looking information. In making such judgments and estimates, the Group extrapolates the expected changes in the credit risk of debtors based on historical repayment data and factors such as economic policies, macroeconomic indicators and industry risks. Therefore, the amount of provision for impairment of receivables and contract assets may change in accordance with the changes in the above estimates, and the adjustments to the provision for impairment of receivables and contract assets will affect the profit or loss in the period in which the estimates are changed. (3) Accounting estimates for provision for impairment of fixed assets and investment properties The Group performs impairment tests on fixed assets such as buildings, machinery and equipment, and investment properties at the balance sheet date if there is any indication of impairment. The recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment and investment properties is the higher of the 126 / 250 Annual Report 2023 present value of estimated future cash flows and the fair value of the assets less costs of disposal, which requires the use of accounting estimates. If management revises the gross margins used in the calculation of future cash flows for asset groups and portfolios of asset groups and the revised gross margins are lower than the currently used gross margins, the Group is required to increase the provision for impairment for property, plant and equipment and investment properties. If the pre-tax discount rate used for discounting cash flows is revised by the management and the revised pre-tax discount rate is higher than the current rate, the Group is required to make additional provision for impairment of fixed assets and investment properties. If the actual gross profit margin or pre-tax discount rate is higher or lower than the management's estimate, the Group cannot reverse the provision for impairment of fixed assets and investment properties. (4) Useful lives of fixed assets and investment properties The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of fixed assets and investment properties at least annually at the end of each year. The estimated useful lives are determined by the management based on historical experience of similar assets, reference to estimates generally used in the industry and expected technological updates. Depreciation and amortization expenses for future periods are adjusted accordingly when there is a significant change in the previous estimates. (5) Income tax expense The Group recognizes current and deferred taxes in profit or loss, except for those arising from business combinations and transactions or events directly attributable to owners' equity (including other comprehensive income). Current income tax is the expected income tax payable calculated on the basis of the taxable income for the year at the rates specified in the tax law, plus adjustments to prior years' income tax payable. At the balance sheet date, if the Group has a legal right to settle on a net basis and intends to settle on a net basis, or to acquire assets and settle liabilities simultaneously, current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities are shown net of tax. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for deductible temporary differences and taxable temporary differences, respectively. A temporary difference is the difference between the carrying amount of an asset or liability and its tax basis, including deductible losses and tax credits that can be carried forward to future years. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is not recognized for temporary differences arising from transactions that are not part of a business combination and that at the time of the transaction affect neither the accounting profit nor taxable income (or deductible losses). At the balance sheet date, the Group measures the carrying amount of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the expected manner of recovering or settling those assets and liabilities, in accordance with enacted tax laws, at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the assets are recovered or the liabilities are settled. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the balance sheet date. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is written down to the extent that it is more likely than not that sufficient taxable income will not be available to allow the benefit of the deferred tax assets to be realized in future periods. When it is more likely than not that sufficient taxable income will be available to offset the deferred tax assets, the amount written down is reversed. On the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are netted out when the following conditions are met: A taxable entity has a legal right to settle current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities on a net basis; Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity or on different taxable entities, provided that in each future period in which significant deferred tax assets and liabilities reverse, the taxable entity intends to settle the 127 / 250 Annual Report 2023 current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously. 1. Statement of Compliance with ASBE The financial statements prepared by the Company comply with the requirements of the ASBE and give a true and complete account of the Company's financial position, results of operations, changes in shareholders' equity, cash flows and other relevant information. 2. Accounting period The Company's fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends on December 31 of the Gregorian calendar. 3. Business cycle √ Applicable □ N/A The Group uses 12 months as the business cycle and the criteria for classifying the liquidity of assets and liabilities. 4. Currency of accounts The Group and its Chinese subsidiaries use Renminbi ("RMB") as the local currency of account; Acter International Limited ("Acter (Hong Kong)") uses United States dollars ("USD") as the local currency of account; Acter Technology Singapore Pte. Ltd ("Acter (Singapore)") is denominated in Singapore dollars; PT Acter Technology Indonesia ("Acter (Indonesia)") and PT Acter Integration Technology Indonesia ("Indonesia Joint Venture") are denominated in Indonesian Rupiah; Acter Technology Malaysia Sdn. Bhd ("Acter (Malaysia)") is denominated in Malaysian Ringgit and Sheng Huei Engineering Technology Company Limited ("Sheng Huei (Vietnam)") is denominated in Vietnamese Dong; Acter Technology Company Limited ("Acter (Thailand)") uses Thai Baht as its local currency. The Group and its subsidiaries have selected the local currency of accounts based on the currency of valuation and settlement of major business receipts and expenditures. Some subsidiaries of the Group have adopted currencies other than the Group's local currency as their local currency, and the foreign currency financial statements of these subsidiaries have been translated in accordance with this Section V.10 in the preparation of these financial statements. 5. Method of determining materiality criteria and basis of selection √ Applicable □ N/A Item Materiality Criteria Significant accounts payable with an age of more Individual amount exceeding RMB 3 million than one year Important prepaid accounts with an age of more Individual amount exceeding RMB 1 million than one year 6. Accounting treatment of business combinations under the same control and non-same control √ Applicable □ N/A (1) Business combination under the same control Assets and liabilities acquired by the Group as a consolidated party in a business combination under the same control are measured at the carrying amount of the party being consolidated in the consolidated statements of the party ultimately in control at the date of consolidation. The difference between the carrying amount of net assets acquired and the carrying amount of the consideration paid for the merger is adjusted to capital surplus; if the capital surplus is not sufficient to cover the difference, it is adjusted to retained earnings. (2) Business combination not under common control A business combination under non-identical control occurs when the parties involved in the combination are not under the ultimate control of the same party or parties before and after the combination. Identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree acquired in a business combination not under common control are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. The cost of consolidation is the 128 / 250 Annual Report 2023 sum of the fair values of cash or non-cash assets paid, liabilities issued or assumed, and equity securities issued by the Group at the date of acquisition for the purpose of obtaining control over the acquiree, as well as all directly related expenses incurred in the business combination (for business combinations effected in stages through multiple transactions, the cost of consolidation is the sum of the costs of each individual transaction). If the cost of combination is greater than the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets, goodwill is recognized. If the cost of combination is less than the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets, the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired in the combination as well as the fair value of the non-cash assets or equity securities issued as consideration for the combination are first reviewed. If, after the review, the cost of consolidation is still less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the acquiree, the difference is recognized as non-operating revenue in the current period of consolidation. 7. Criteria for judging control and method of preparing consolidated financial statements √ Applicable □ N/A The scope of consolidation of the Group's consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis of control, which includes the Company and all subsidiaries controlled by the Company (including enterprises, divisible parts of invested entities and structured entities controlled by enterprises, etc.). The Group determines control on the basis of the Group's power over an investee, the Group's ability to earn variable returns from participating in the investee's activities, and the Group's ability to exercise its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investee's returns. In the preparation of consolidated financial statements, if the subsidiaries adopt accounting policies or accounting periods that are different from those of the Company, the subsidiaries' financial statements shall be adjusted as necessary in accordance with the Company's accounting policies or accounting periods. The effects on the consolidated financial statements of internal transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries and between subsidiaries are eliminated on consolidation. The share of ownership interest of subsidiaries that is not attributable to the parent company and the share of net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income that is attributable to minority interests are presented in the consolidated financial statements under the headings of "Minority interests, minority interests in profit or loss, other comprehensive income attributable to minorities and total comprehensive income attributable to minorities", respectively. The results of operations and cash flows of subsidiaries acquired in a business combination under the same control are included in the consolidated financial statements from the beginning of the period in which the combination occurs. In preparing the comparative consolidated financial statements, adjustments are made to the relevant items in the prior year's financial statements, and the consolidated entity is deemed to have been in existence since the point in time when the ultimate controlling party began to exercise control. For subsidiaries acquired in a business combination not under common control, the results of operations and cash flows are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Group obtains control. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of subsidiaries are adjusted on the basis of the fair value of each identifiable asset, liability and contingent liability determined at the date of purchase. 8. Classification of joint arrangements and accounting treatment of joint operations √ Applicable □ N/A The Group's joint venture arrangements include joint operations and joint ventures. Joint operation refers to a joint arrangement in which the parties to the arrangement are entitled to the assets and bear the liabilities related to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement in which the joint venturers have rights only to the net assets of the arrangement. For joint ventures, the Group recognizes assets held and liabilities assumed individually or in proportion to the assets held and liabilities assumed by the Group as a joint venturer, and recognizes revenues and expenses individually or in proportion to the relevant agreements. When a joint venture enters into a transaction for the purchase or sale of an asset that does not constitute part of the business, only the portion of the gain or loss arising from the transaction that is attributable to the other participants in the joint venture is recognized. 9. Criteria for determining cash and cash equivalents 129 / 250 Annual Report 2023 Cash equivalents are investments held by an enterprise that have a short maturity (generally maturing within three months from the date of purchase), are highly liquid, are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. 10. Foreign currency operations and translation of foreign currency statements √ Applicable □N/A (1) Foreign currency transactions The Group's foreign currency transactions are translated into RMB at the spot exchange rate on the date of the transaction. At the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated into RMB using the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date, and the resulting translation differences are recognized directly in profit or loss for the current period, except for exchange differences arising from special loans in foreign currencies for the purpose of purchasing, constructing or producing assets eligible for capitalization, which are dealt with in accordance with the principle of capitalization. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated using spot exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined, and the difference between the translated amount in the local currency of the account and the original amount in the local currency of the account is treated as a change in fair value (including exchange rate changes) and recognized in profit or loss for the period. Capital received from investors in foreign currencies is translated using the spot exchange rate on the date when the transaction occurs, and the difference in the translated amount between the invested capital in foreign currencies and the corresponding local currency of the monetary items does not result in a difference between the foreign- currency capital and the corresponding local currency of the monetary items. (2) Translation of foreign currency financial statements Assets and liabilities in the foreign currency balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date; owners' equity items, except for "undistributed profits", are translated at the spot exchange rate at the time of occurrence of the business; and income and expenses in the income statement are translated at the spot exchange rate at the date of occurrence of the transaction. Translation differences arising from the above translations are recognized in other comprehensive income. Cash flows in foreign currencies are translated using the spot exchange rate on the date of cash flows. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash is shown separately in the statement of cash flows. 11. Financial Instruments √ Applicable □ N/A The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability when it becomes a party to a financial instrument contract. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability and of allocating interest income or interest expense over the accounting period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows through the expected life of the financial asset or financial liability to the book balance of the financial asset or the amortized cost of the financial liability. In determining the effective interest rate, the expected cash flows are estimated by taking into account all contractual terms of the financial assets or liabilities (e.g. early repayment, rollover, call option or other similar options, etc.), but not the expected credit losses. The amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability is the initial recognized amount of the financial asset or the financial liability, less the principal repaid, plus or minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest rate method to amortize the difference between the initial recognized amount and the maturity amount, and less the cumulative loss allowance (only applicable to financial assets). (1). Classification, recognition and measurement of financial assets The Group classifies financial assets into the following three categories based on the business model of the financial assets under management and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets: 1) Financial assets measured at amortized cost 2) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. 3) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets are measured at fair value on initial recognition, except for accounts receivable or bills receivable arising from the sale of goods or provision of services, etc., which do not contain significant financing components or do not take into account the financing components that are not more than one year old, which are measured initially at the transaction price. For financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs are recognized directly in profit or loss, while transaction costs related to other types of financial assets are recognized in their initial recognition amounts. 130 / 250 Annual Report 2023 Subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification. All affected financial assets are reclassified when, and only when, the Group changes its business model for managing financial assets. 1) Financial assets classified as at amortized cost The Group classifies a financial asset as amortized cost if the contractual terms of the financial asset stipulate that the only cash flows to be generated at a specific date will be payments of principal and interest based on the amount of principal outstanding, and the business model for managing the financial asset is to collect the contractual cash flows. The Group recognizes interest income on these financial assets using the effective interest method, partially measured at amortized cost, bills receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, investments in debt securities and long-term receivables. The Group uses the effective interest rate method to recognize interest income on these financial assets, which are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Gains or losses arising from impairment or derecognition or modification of such financial assets are recognized in profit or loss for the current period. The Group determines interest income by multiplying the book balance of the financial assets by the effective interest rate, except in the following cases. a. For financial assets acquired or originated that are impaired, the Group determines interest income on the basis of the amortized cost of the financial assets and the effective interest rate adjusted for creditworthiness from the initial recognition of the financial assets. b. For financial assets acquired or originated without credit impairment that become impaired in a subsequent period, the Group determines interest income in the subsequent period based on the amortized cost of the financial assets and the effective interest rate. If, in a subsequent period, the credit risk of a financial instrument has improved and the financial instrument is no longer impaired, the Group calculates interest income by multiplying the effective interest rate by the carrying amount of the financial asset. 2) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income If the contractual terms of a financial asset stipulate that the cash flows to be generated at a specific date will consist solely of payments of principal and interest based on the outstanding principal amount, and the business model for managing the financial asset is based on the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows as well as the objective of selling the financial asset, the Group classifies the financial asset as a financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income. The Group recognizes interest income on such financial assets using the effective interest method. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income, except for interest income, impairment losses and exchange differences, which are recognized in profit or loss. When the financial assets are derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred from other comprehensive income and recognized in profit or loss. Notes and accounts receivable at fair value through other comprehensive income are presented as receivables financing, and other financial assets are presented as other debt investments, of which. Other debt investments maturing within one year from the balance sheet date are presented as non-current assets with maturity of less than one year, and other debt investments with original maturity of less than one year are presented as other current assets. 3) Financial assets designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate investments in non-trading equity instruments as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income on an individual financial asset basis. Changes in the fair value of such financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income and no provision for impairment is required. Upon derecognition of the financial assets, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred from other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The Group recognizes dividend income and recognizes it in profit or loss when the Group's right to receive dividends has been established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividends will flow to the Group and the amount of dividends can be measured reliably during the period in which the Group holds the investment in the equity instrument. The Group reports such financial assets under investments in other equity instruments. Investments in equity instruments are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss if they meet one of the following conditions: the financial asset is acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near future; it is part of a centrally managed portfolio of identifiable financial assets at initial recognition, and there is objective evidence that a pattern of short-term profit-taking actually exists in the near future; and It is a derivative (except for derivatives that meet the definition of a financial guarantee contract and are designated as effective hedging instruments). 4) Financial assets classified at fair value through profit or loss 131 / 250 Annual Report 2023 Financial assets that do not meet the criteria for classification as financial assets at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income and are not designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The Group uses fair value for subsequent measurement of these financial assets, and recognizes gains or losses arising from changes in fair value, as well as dividend and interest income related to these financial assets in profit or loss for the current period. The Group reports these financial assets under the items of trading financial assets and other non-current financial assets according to their liquidity. 5) Financial assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss At initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate financial assets as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss on an individual basis in order to eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatches. If a hybrid contract contains one or more embedded derivatives and the host contract is not one of the above financial assets, the Group may designate the entire contract as a financial instrument at fair value through profit or loss. However, except for the following situations: a. The embedded derivatives will not a. The embedded derivatives will not materially alter the cash flows of the hybrid contract. b. When determining for the first time whether a similar hybrid contract needs to be unbundled, little analysis is required to clarify that the embedded derivatives it contains shall not be unbundled. For example, if the embedded loan has an early repayment right that allows the holder to repay the loan early at an amount close to amortized cost, the early repayment right does not need to be spun off. The Group uses fair value for subsequent measurement of these financial assets, and recognizes gains or losses arising from changes in fair value, as well as dividend and interest income related to these financial assets in profit or loss. The Group reports such financial assets under the items of trading financial assets and other non-current financial assets according to their liquidity. (2). Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities The Group classifies a financial instrument or its component parts as a financial liability or an equity instrument upon initial recognition based on the contractual terms of the financial instrument issued and the economic substance reflected therein rather than in legal form only, taking into account the definitions of financial liabilities and equity instruments. Financial liabilities are classified on initial recognition as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, other financial liabilities and derivatives designated as effective hedging instruments. Financial liabilities are measured at fair value on initial recognition. For financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs are recognized directly in profit or loss; for other types of financial liabilities, transaction costs are recognized in the initial recognition amount. The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification. 1) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading (including derivatives that are financial liabilities) and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition. Financial liabilities are classified as trading liabilities if they meet one of the following conditions: they are assumed principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near future; they are part of a centrally managed portfolio of identifiable financial instruments and there is objective evidence that the enterprise has recently adopted a short-term profit-taking model; they are derivatives, except for those designated as effective hedging instruments and those subject to financial guarantee contracts. Financial liabilities held for trading (including derivatives that are financial liabilities) are subsequently measured at fair value, with all changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss, except for those related to hedge accounting. At initial recognition, in order to provide more relevant accounting information, the Group irrevocably designates financial liabilities as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss if they meet one of the following conditions: a. Eliminating or significantly reducing accounting mismatches. b. Managing and evaluating the performance of a portfolio of financial liabilities or a portfolio of financial assets and financial liabilities on a fair value basis in accordance with an enterprise risk management or investment strategy as set out in a formal written document, and reporting to key management personnel within the enterprise on this basis. The Group subsequently measures such financial liabilities at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss, except for changes in fair value arising from changes in the Group's own credit 132 / 250 Annual Report 2023 risk, which are recognized in other comprehensive income. The Group recognizes all fair value changes (including the effect of changes in the Group's own credit risk) in profit or loss, unless the recognition of fair value changes in other comprehensive income caused by changes in the Group's own credit risk would result in an accounting mismatch in profit or loss or would magnify the accounting mismatch in profit or loss. (2) Other financial liabilities Except for the following items, the Company classifies its financial liabilities as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, which are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with gains or losses arising from derecognition or amortization recognized in profit or loss for the current period. a. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. b. Financial liabilities resulting from transfers of financial assets that do not meet the conditions for derecognition or from continuing involvement in the transferred financial assets. c. Financial guarantee contracts that do not fall into the first two categories of this article, and loan commitments to lend at below-market interest rates that do not fall into category 1) of this article. A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to pay a specified amount of money to the holder of the contract who suffers a loss when a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the terms of the original or modified debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts that are not financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss are measured at the higher of the amount of the allowance for losses and the amount initially recognized net of accumulated amortization over the guarantee period after initial recognition. (3). Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities 1) A financial asset is derecognized, i.e., removed from the accounts and balance sheet, when one of the following conditions is met a. The contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial asset is terminated. b. The financial asset is transferred and the transfer meets the requirements for derecognition of financial assets. 2) Conditions for derecognition of financial liabilities A financial liability (or a portion of a financial liability) is derecognized when the present obligation of the financial liability (or the portion of the financial liability) has been discharged. If the Group enters into an agreement with the lender to replace the original financial liability by assuming a new financial liability, and the contractual terms of the new financial liability are substantially different from those of the original financial liability, or the contractual terms of the original financial liability (or a portion thereof) are substantially modified, the original financial liability is derecognized and a new financial liability is recognized at the same time. The difference between the carrying amount and the consideration paid (including non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss. When the Group repurchases a portion of a financial liability, the Group allocates the carrying amount of the financial liability as a whole according to the proportion that the fair value of the continuing portion and the derecognized portion of the financial liability bears to the fair value of the financial liability as a whole at the date of buyback. The difference between the carrying amount allocated to the derecognized portion and the consideration paid (including non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) shall be recognized in profit or loss. (4). Basis of recognition and measurement of transfer of financial assets The Group assesses the extent to which it retains the risks and rewards of ownership of a financial asset when a transfer of a financial asset occurs and handles the transfer in each of the following situations: 1) If substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a financial asset are transferred, the financial asset is derecognized and the rights and obligations arising from or retained in the transfer are separately recognized as assets or liabilities. 2) If substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are retained, the financial asset continues to be recognized. 3) If neither the transfer nor substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are retained (i.e., in cases other than those in 1) and 2)), the financial asset is recognized and treated as follows, depending on whether or not control over the financial asset is retained: a. If control over the financial asset is not retained, the financial asset is derecognized and the rights and obligations arising from or retained in the transfer are recognized separately as assets or liabilities. b. If control over the financial asset is retained, the financial asset continues to be recognized to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferred financial asset, and the related liability is recognized 133 / 250 Annual Report 2023 accordingly. The extent to which the Group continues to be involved in the transferred financial asset is the extent to which it bears the risk or rewards of changes in the value of the transferred financial asset. In determining whether a transfer of financial assets meets the above conditions for derecognition of financial assets, the principle of substance over form is applied. The Company distinguishes between transfers of financial assets as a whole and partial transfers of financial assets: 1) If the transfer of financial assets as a whole meets the conditions for derecognition, the difference between the following two amounts is recognized in profit or loss: a. The carrying amount of the transferred financial asset at the date of derecognition. b. The sum of the consideration received for the transfer of the financial asset and the amount of the derecognized portion of the cumulative change in the fair value of the transferred financial asset that is recognized in other comprehensive income (the transferred financial asset is a financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income). 2) If part of a financial asset is transferred and the transferred part meets the conditions for derecognition, the carrying amount of the financial asset as a whole before the transfer is apportioned between the derecognized part and the derecognized part (in which case, the retained service asset shall be regarded as a part of the derecognized financial asset) in accordance with their respective relative fair values at the date of transfer, and the difference between the following amounts is recognized in the profit or loss for the current period: a. The carrying amount of the derecognized portion at the date of derecognition. b. The sum of the consideration received for the derecognized portion and the amount corresponding to the derecognized portion of the cumulative changes in fair value previously recognized in other comprehensive income (involving transfers of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income). and If the transfer of a financial asset does not meet the conditions for derecognition, the financial asset continues to be recognized and the consideration received is recognized as a financial liability. (5). Methods of determining the fair value of financial assets and liabilities The fair value of a financial asset or a financial liability for which there is an active market is determined using quoted prices in an active market, unless there is a period of restriction on the sale of the financial asset. The fair value of a financial asset that is subject to a sales restriction on the asset itself is determined based on quoted prices in an active market, less the amount of compensation that a market participant would require to assume the risk of not being able to sell the financial asset in the open market within a specified period of time. Quoted prices in active markets include quoted prices for the relevant assets or liabilities that are readily and regularly available from exchanges, dealers, brokers, industry groups, pricing agencies or regulatory bodies, etc., and that are representative of actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis. The fair value of financial assets or liabilities that are initially acquired or derived from financial assets or liabilities assumed is determined on the basis of quoted market prices. The fair value of financial assets or financial liabilities for which no active market exists is determined using valuation techniques. In valuing financial assets or financial liabilities, the Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and supported by sufficient available data and other information, and selects inputs that are consistent with the characteristics of the assets or liabilities that would be considered by a market participant in a transaction for the relevant assets or liabilities, giving priority to the use of relevant observable inputs where possible. Unobservable inputs are used where relevant observable inputs are not available or practicable to obtain. (6). Impairment of financial instruments The Group applies impairment accounting for financial assets carried at amortized cost, financial assets classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income, lease receivables, contract assets, loan commitments that are not financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, financial liabilities that are not financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, and financial guarantee contracts that do not meet the conditions for derecognition due to the transfer of financial assets or financial liabilities arising from continued involvement in the transferred financial assets, based on expected credit losses and recognizes a loss provision. Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses on financial instruments that are weighted by the risk of default. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows receivable and all cash flows expected to be received by the Group under the contract, discounted at the original 134 / 250 Annual Report 2023 effective interest rate, i.e. the present value of all cash shortfalls. Financial assets purchased or originated by the Group that are credit-impaired are discounted at the financial asset's credit-adjusted effective interest rate. For receivables, contract assets and lease receivables arising from transactions governed by the Income Standards, the Group applies a simplified measurement approach and measures the allowance for losses as an amount equal to the expected credit losses over the life of the asset. For purchased or originated financial assets that are impaired, only the cumulative change in expected credit losses over the life of the asset since initial recognition is recognized as a loss allowance at the balance sheet date. At each balance sheet date, the amount of the change in expected credit losses for the entire duration of the asset is recognized as an impairment loss or gain in profit or loss. Even if the expected credit losses determined at that balance sheet date are less than the amount of expected credit losses reflected in the estimated cash flows at the time of initial recognition, the favorable change in expected credit losses is recognized as an impairment gain. For financial assets other than the above simplified measurement method and purchased or originated financial assets that have been impaired, the Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether the credit risk of the relevant financial instruments has increased significantly since the initial recognition, and measures the allowance for losses, recognizes expected credit losses and the changes in expected credit losses in accordance with the following scenarios: 1) If the credit risk of the financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition and is in the first stage, the allowance for losses is measured at an amount equal to the expected credit losses of the financial instrument in the next 12 months, and interest income is calculated on the basis of the book balance and the effective interest rate. 2) If the credit risk of the financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition but credit impairment has not yet occurred, in the second stage, the Group measures the allowance for losses at an amount equal to the expected credit losses for the entire duration of the financial instrument and calculates interest income based on the carrying amount and the effective interest rate. 3) If the financial instrument has been impaired since initial recognition, in the third stage, the Group measures the allowance for credit losses at an amount equal to the expected credit losses over the life of the financial instrument and calculates interest income at amortized cost and effective interest rate. Any increase or reversal of the allowance for credit losses on financial instruments is recognized as an impairment loss or gain in profit or loss. The allowance for credit losses is offset against the carrying amount of the financial asset, except for financial assets classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income. For financial assets classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income, the Group recognizes the allowance for credit losses in other comprehensive income, which does not reduce the carrying amount of the financial assets in the balance sheet. If the Group has measured the allowance for losses in a previous accounting period at an amount equal to the expected credit losses over the entire life of the financial instrument, but at the current balance sheet date the financial instrument no longer represents a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the Group measures the allowance for losses for the financial instrument at an amount equal to the expected credit losses over the next 12 months at the current balance sheet date. The reversal of the resulting loss provision is recognized as an impairment loss. 1) Significant increase in credit risk The Group uses available reasonable and reliable forward-looking information to determine whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk of a financial instrument since initial recognition by comparing the risk of default at the balance sheet date with the risk of default at the date of initial recognition. For financial guarantee contracts, the Group applies the provisions for impairment of financial instruments by considering the date on which the Group became a party to the irrevocable commitment as the initial recognition date. The Group considers the following factors when assessing whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk: a. Whether there has been a significant change in the debtor's operating results, actual or expected. b. Whether there has been a significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic or technological environment in which the debtor operates. c. Whether there has been a significant change in the value of the collateral pledged as security for the debt, or in the quality of guarantees or credit enhancements provided by third parties, which is expected to reduce the debtor's financial incentive to repay the debtor within the contractual timeframe or affect the probability of default; and d. Whether there has been a significant change in the debtor's expected performance and repayment behavior 135 / 250 Annual Report 2023 e. Changes in the Group's approach to credit management of financial instruments. At the balance sheet date, if the Group determines that a financial instrument has only low credit risk, the Group assumes that there has been no significant increase in the credit risk of the financial instrument since initial recognition. A financial instrument is considered to have low credit risk if the risk of default is low, the borrower's ability to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the short term is high, and the borrower's ability to meet its contractual cash flow obligations may not necessarily be reduced by unfavorable changes in the economic situation and business environment in the long term. 2) Financial assets that have suffered credit impairment A financial asset is impaired when one or more events that have an adverse effect on the expected future cash flows of the financial asset occur. Evidence that a financial asset is impaired includes observable information such as a. Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor; or b. A breach of contract by the debtor, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or c. The creditor has made concessions to the debtor that the debtor would not have made otherwise because of economic or contractual considerations related to the debtor's financial difficulties. d. The debtor is likely to enter into bankruptcy or other financial reorganization. e. The disappearance of an active market for the financial asset as a result of financial difficulties of the issuer or the debtor; or f. A financial asset is purchased or acquired at a significant discount that reflects the fact that a credit loss has been incurred. The occurrence of a credit impairment of a financial asset may be the result of a combination of events and not necessarily the result of separately identifiable events. 3) Determination of expected credit losses The Group assesses expected credit losses on financial instruments on an individual and portfolio basis. In assessing expected credit losses, the Group takes into account reasonable and supportable information about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The Group categorizes financial instruments into different portfolios based on common credit risk characteristics. The common credit risk characteristics adopted by the Group include: ageing portfolio, construction bidding deposit, receivables within the scope of consolidation, etc. The individual evaluation criteria and portfolio credit risk characteristics of related financial instruments are described in the accounting policies of related financial instruments. The individual evaluation criteria and portfolio credit risk characteristics of the related financial instruments are described in the accounting policies of the related financial instruments. The Group determines the expected credit losses of related financial instruments in accordance with the following methods. a. For financial assets, credit losses represent the present value of the difference between the contractual cash flows to be received by the Group and the cash flows expected to be received. b. For lease receivables, the credit loss is the present value of the difference between the contractual cash flows to be received by the Group and the cash flows expected to be received. c. For financial guarantee contracts, the credit loss is the present value of the difference between the amount the Group expects to pay to the holder of the contract in respect of credit losses incurred by the holder of the contract, less the amount the Group expects to collect from the holder of the contract, the debtor or any other party. d. For financial assets that are impaired at the balance sheet date but not purchased or originated, the credit loss is the difference between the book balance of the financial asset and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate. The Group's method of measuring expected credit losses on financial instruments reflects factors such as: an unbiased, probability-weighted average amount determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes; the time value of money; and reasonable and substantiated information about past events, current conditions, and projections of future economic conditions that is available at the balance sheet date without undue additional cost or effort. 4) Write-down of financial assets When the Group no longer has a reasonable expectation that the contractual cash flows of a financial asset will be recovered in whole or in part, the book value of the financial asset is written down directly. Such write-downs constitute derecognition of the related financial assets. (7). Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities 136 / 250 Annual Report 2023 Financial assets and financial liabilities are presented separately in the balance sheet and are not offset. However, if the following conditions are met, they are presented in the balance sheet as net amounts after offsetting. 1) The Group has a legal right to offset the recognized amounts and the legal right is currently enforceable; and 2) The Group intends to settle the net amount, or to realize the financial asset and settle the financial liability at the same time. 12. Bills receivable √ Applicable □ N/A Method of determining expected credit losses and accounting treatment of bills receivable √ Applicable □ N/A For bills receivable, regardless of whether they contain significant financing elements or not, the Group always measures the loss provision at an amount equal to the expected credit losses over the entire duration, and the resulting increase or reversal of the loss provision is recognized as an impairment loss or gain in profit or loss for the current period. For details of the Group's method of determining expected credit losses on bills receivable and its accounting treatment, please refer to Section V.11. (6) Impairment of financial instruments. Categories of bad debt provision according to credit risk characteristics and the basis of determination √ Applicable □ N/A When sufficient evidence of expected credit losses cannot be assessed at a reasonable cost at the level of individual instruments, the Group classifies bills receivable into certain portfolios based on credit risk characteristics with reference to historical credit loss experience, current conditions and judgment of future economic conditions, and calculates expected credit losses on a portfolio basis. The basis for determining the portfolio is as follows: Portfolio name Basis for determining portfolios Method of calculation The risk characteristics of commercial acceptances are Expected credit losses are Commercial acceptances substantially the same as those of accrued by reference to (portfolio 1) accounts receivable for similar accounts receivable. contracts. The acceptors have high credit Expected credit losses are ratings, no historical defaults, very measured based on historical low risk of credit loss, and strong credit loss experience, Bank acceptance portfolio ability to fulfill their obligations to current conditions and (portfolio 2) pay contractual cash flows in the expectations of future short term. economic conditions. Ageing method for recognizing a portfolio of credit risk characteristics based on the age of the accounts. √ Applicable □ N/A For commercial paper receivables, the expected credit loss accrual method is based on the bad debt policy for accounts receivable, and the aging point of commercial paper receivables is retroactively adjusted to the aging point of the corresponding accounts receivable. Judgmental criteria for individual provisioning according to individual provisioning for bad debts √ Applicable □ N/A If there is objective evidence that an item is impaired, the Group makes a provision for bad debts and recognizes expected credit losses for that item. 13. Accounts receivable √ Applicable □ N/A 137 / 250 Annual Report 2023 Method of determining expected credit losses and accounting treatment of accounts receivable √ Applicable □ N/A For details of the Group's method of determining expected credit losses on accounts receivable and accounting treatment, please refer to this Section V.11. (6) Impairment of financial instruments. Categories of portfolio and basis of determination of bad debt provision according to credit risk profile portfolio √ Applicable □ N/A The Group provides for expected credit losses on an individual basis for accounts receivable with significantly different credit risks from those of the portfolio. The Group determines credit losses separately for receivables for which sufficient evidence of expected credit losses can be assessed at a reasonable cost at the level of individual instruments. When sufficient evidence of expected credit losses cannot be assessed at a reasonable cost for an individual instrument, the Group divides accounts receivable into portfolios based on credit risk characteristics by reference to historical credit loss experience, current conditions and judgment of future economic conditions, and calculates expected credit losses on the basis of the portfolios. The basis for determining the portfolios is as follows: Segmentation of portfolio by credit risk characteristics based on Risk portfolio ageing of receivables Portfolio of related transactions The relationship between the receivable and the counterparty is within the scope of consolidation used to characterize the credit risk. Provisioning method for bad debt provisioning by portfolio Risk portfolio (portfolio 1) Provision for bad debts by ageing analysis method Portfolio of related transactions Unless there is evidence of impairment, no provision for bad within the scope of consolidation debts is generally made. (portfolio 2) Calculation of ageing method for recognizing credit risk characteristics based on the age of the portfolio √ Applicable □ N/A The Group combines accounts receivable classified as risky portfolios with similar credit risk characteristics (aging) and estimates the percentage of bad debt provision for such accounts receivable based on all reasonable and supportable information, including forward-looking information.

Receivables financing √ Applicable □ N/A Method of determining expected credit losses and accounting treatment of receivables financing √ Applicable □ N/A For notes and accounts receivable with contractual cash flow characteristics that are consistent with the underlying lending arrangements and for which the Company's business model for managing such financial assets is to collect the contractual cash flows with the objective of both collection and sale, the Group classifies them as accounts receivable financing, which are measured at fair value with changes recognized in other comprehensive income. Interest income, impairment losses and exchange differences recognized using the effective interest rate method on receivables financing are recognized in profit or loss, while the remaining changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income. Upon derecognition, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is removed from other comprehensive income and recognized in profit or loss. Categories of portfolios and basis of determination of bad debt provisioning according to credit risk characteristic portfolios √ Applicable □ N/A For details of the Group's method of determining expected credit losses on receivables financing and accounting treatment, please refer to this Section V.11. (6) Impairment of financial instruments. Aging calculation method for recognizing a portfolio of credit risk characteristics based on aging √ Applicable □ N/A For receivable financing classified as a portfolio, the Group calculates the expected credit losses by referring to the historical credit loss experience, taking into account the current situation and the forecast of the future economic situation, through the default risk exposure and the expected credit loss rate for the entire duration. Judgmental criteria for individual provisioning of bad debt according to individual items □ Applicable √ N/A 15. Other receivables √ Applicable □ N/A Method of determining expected credit losses and accounting treatment of other receivables √ Applicable □ N/A The Group measures the provision for losses on other receivables in accordance with the following circumstances: ① For financial assets with no significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the Group measures the allowance for losses based on the amount of expected credit losses in the next 12 months; ② For financial assets whose credit risk has significantly increased since initial recognition, the Group measures the allowance for losses at an amount equal to the expected credit losses over the entire life of the financial instrument; ③ For purchased or originated financial assets that are impaired, the Group measures the allowance for loss at an amount equal to the expected credit loss over the entire life of the financial instrument. Categories of bad debt provision according to the portfolio of credit risk characteristics and the basis of determination √ Applicable □ N/A For other receivables, the Group is unable to obtain sufficient evidence of significant increase in credit risk at a reasonable cost at the level of individual instruments, and it is feasible to assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk on a portfolio basis. Therefore, the Group groups other receivables according to the type of financial instruments, credit risk ratings, initial recognition dates, and remaining 139 / 250 Annual Report 2023 contractual maturities as the common risk characteristics and considers them on a portfolio basis. The Group assesses whether there is a significant increase in credit risk. To measure expected credit losses on a portfolio basis, the Group groups the expected credit loss accrual percentage according to the corresponding ageing credit risk characteristics. Basis of portfolio determination The ageing of other receivables is used as the credit risk Risk portfolio characteristic to classify the portfolio. Portfolio of related transactions The credit risk characteristics of other receivables are based on the within the scope of relationship between the receivables and the counterparties. consolidation Portfolio of risk-free receivables The credit risk characteristics of other receivables are based on the such as social security nature of the receivables. receivables Provisioning method for bad debt by portfolio Risk portfolio Provision for bad debts is based on the aging analysis method.

A table comparing the aging of the other receivables - credit risk characteristics portfolio with the expected credit loss rate over the entire duration is shown below: Ageing Expected credit loss rate of other receivables (%) Within 1 year (including 1 year) 5.00 1 to 2 years (including 2 years) 10.00 2 to 3 years (including 3 years) 30.00 3 to 4 years (including 4 years) 50.00 4 to 5 years (including 5 years) 80.00 More than 5 years 100.00 Judgmental criteria for individual provisioning according to individual provisioning for bad debts √ Applicable □ N/A Other receivables arising from non-operating low-risk businesses are individually impaired according to the nature of the business. For other receivables secured by mortgage, the original value less the recoverable value of the collateral is recognized as the risk exposure for credit losses. 16. Inventories √ Applicable □ N/A 140 / 250 Annual Report 2023 Categories of inventories, issue valuation method, inventory system, amortization method of low- value consumables and packages √ Applicable □ N/A The actual cost of inventories issued is measured using the individual valuation method. Recognition criteria and accrual method for provision for decline in value of inventories √ Applicable □ N/A Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs to be incurred to completion, estimated selling expenses and related taxes. The net realizable value of inventories held for the purpose of executing sales or service contracts is calculated on the basis of the contract price. Categories and basis for determining the provision for decline in value of inventories based on portfolios, and basis for determining the net realizable value of different categories of inventories √ Applicable □ N/A The net realizable value of inventories is determined on the basis of reliable evidence obtained, taking into account the purpose of holding the inventories, the impact of events after the balance sheet date, and other factors. ① The net realizable value of inventories held for sale, such as finished goods, merchandise and materials for sale, is determined as the estimated selling price of the inventories in the ordinary course of production and operation, less estimated selling expenses and related taxes. The net realizable value of inventories held for the purpose of executing sales contracts or labor contracts is measured at the contract price; if the quantity of inventories held exceeds the quantity ordered under the sales contract, the net realizable value of the excess quantity is measured at the normal selling price. The net realizable value of materials for sale is measured at market price. ② The net realizable value of inventories of materials requiring processing is determined in the normal course of production and operation by the estimated selling price of finished goods produced, less estimated costs to be incurred until completion, estimated selling expenses, and related taxes. If the net realizable value of finished goods produced from the materials is higher than the cost, the materials are measured at cost; if the decrease in the price of the materials indicates that the net realizable value of the finished goods is lower than the cost, the materials are measured at the net realizable value, and a provision for decline in value of inventories is made for the difference. ③ Provision for decline in value of inventories is generally made on the basis of individual inventory items; for large quantities of inventories with low unit prices, provision is made on the basis of categories of inventories. ④ If the factors affecting the write-down of inventories have disappeared as of the balance sheet date, the amount of the write-down is restored and reversed to the extent of the provision for decline in value of inventories, and the amount of the reversal is recognized in profit or loss.

Long-term equity investments √ Applicable □ N/A The Group's long-term equity investments are mainly investments in subsidiaries, investments in associates and investments in joint ventures. The Group judges joint control on the basis that all participants or a portfolio of participants collectively control the arrangement and that the policies governing the activities of the arrangement must be agreed upon by those participants who collectively control the arrangement. The Group is generally considered to have significant influence over an investee when it owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than 20% but less than 50% of the investee's voting rights. If the Group owns less than 20% of the voting power of an investee, it is necessary to consider the facts and circumstances such as having representatives on the board of directors or similar authority of the investee, or participating in the process of formulating the financial and operating policies of the investee, or engaging in significant transactions with the investee, or dispatching management personnel to the investee, or providing key technological information to the investee, etc., and determine that the Group has significant influence on the investee. The investee is a subsidiary of the Group if the investor exercises control over the investee. Long-term equity investments acquired through a business combination under the same control are initially recognized at cost based on the share of the carrying amount of the net assets of the party being consolidated in the consolidated statements of the party ultimately in control at the date of consolidation. If the carrying amount of the net assets of the party being consolidated is negative at the date of consolidation, the cost of long-term equity investment is determined as zero. Long-term equity investments acquired through a business combination not under common control are recognized at the cost of the combination. Except for the long-term equity investments acquired through business combination mentioned above, the cost of long-term equity investments acquired by cash payment is based on the actual purchase price paid; the cost of long-term equity investments acquired by issuance of equity securities is based on the fair value of the equity securities issued; and the cost of long-term equity investments invested by investors is based on the value agreed in the investment contract or agreement. The Group's investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method, and investments in joint ventures and associates are accounted for using the equity method. The carrying amount of long-term equity investments accounted for under the cost method is increased by the fair value of additional investment and related transaction costs incurred when additional investment is made. Cash dividends or profits declared by the investee are recognized as investment income at the amount to which they are attributable. The carrying amount of long-term equity investments accounted for under the equity method shall be increased or decreased accordingly to the changes in the ownership interest of the investee. In recognizing the share of net profit or loss of an investee, the fair value of the identifiable assets of the investee at the time of investment acquisition is used as the basis for recognizing the net profit of the investee in accordance with the Group's accounting policies and accounting periods, after offsetting the portion of gains or losses on internal transactions with associates and joint ventures that are attributable to the investor based on the Group's proportionate interest in the investor's net assets and liabilities. On disposal of long-term equity investments, the difference between the carrying amount and the actual acquisition price is recognized as investment income. For long-term equity investments accounted for under the equity method, other comprehensive income accounted for under the equity method shall be accounted for on the same basis as the direct disposal of the related assets or liabilities by the investee upon termination of the equity method, and any changes in the equity of the investee due to changes in the equity of the investee other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution shall be fully transferred to current investment income upon termination of the equity method. The entire amount shall be transferred to investment income when the equity method of accounting is discontinued. If an investee loses joint control or significant influence over the investee due to the disposal of a portion of the equity investment, the remaining equity interest after disposal shall be accounted for in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Guidelines on the Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments, and the difference between the fair value of the remaining equity interest and its carrying amount at the date of the loss of joint control or significant influence shall be recognized as profit or loss for the current period. Other comprehensive income recognized as a result of the adoption of the equity method shall be accounted for on the same basis as the direct disposal of the related assets or liabilities by the investee and carried 143 / 250 Annual Report 2023 forward on a pro rata basis upon the termination of the adoption of the equity method, and all other changes in equity recognized as a result of changes in the investee's ownership interest other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income, and distribution of profits shall be transferred to investment income on a pro rata basis for the current period. If the investee loses control of a portion of the long-term equity investment due to disposal, and the remaining equity interest after disposal is capable of exercising joint control or significant influence over the investee, it shall be accounted for under the equity method instead, and the difference between the carrying amount of the equity interest disposed of and the disposal consideration shall be recognized in investment income, and the remaining equity interest shall be adjusted as if it were equity-method accounted for from the time of acquisition; if the remaining equity interest after disposal is not capable of exercising joint control or significant influence over the investee, it shall be accounted for under the equity method instead. If the remaining equity interest after disposal cannot exercise joint control or significant influence over the investee, the accounting shall be conducted in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Guidelines on Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments, and the difference between the carrying amount of the equity interest disposed of and the consideration for disposal shall be recognized as investment income, while the difference between the fair value of the remaining equity interest at the date of the loss of control and its carrying amount shall be recognized as profit or loss for the current period. 20. Investment properties (1). If the cost measurement model is used: Depreciation or amortization method The Group classifies real estate held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both, as investment property. The Group uses the cost model to measure investment properties. The Group depreciates the cost of investment properties, net of estimated net salvage value and accumulated impairment allowances, over their useful lives using the average annualized method. For details of the impairment test method and the method of making provision for impairment, please refer to Section V.11. (6) Impairment of financial instruments. The useful lives, residual values and annual depreciation rates for each type of investment properties were as follows. Annual Depreciable life Estimated No. Category depreciation rate (years) salvage value (%) (%) 1 House buildings 20 5-10 4.5-4.75 2 Land use rights 36.75 2.72 21 Fixed assets (1). Recognition conditions √ Applicable □ N/A The Group's fixed assets are tangible assets with the following characteristics, i.e., held for use in the production of goods, provision of services, leasing or business management, and with a useful life of more than one year. Fixed assets are recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with them will flow to the Group and their costs can be measured reliably. The Group's fixed assets include buildings, transportation equipment, office and electronic equipment. (2). Depreciation method √ Applicable □ N/A Depreciable life Annual Category Depreciation method Residual value rate (years) depreciation rate Buildings Average life method 10-20 5%-10% 4.50%-9.50% Transportation Average life method 4 5% 23.75% equipment 144 / 250 Annual Report 2023 Office and electronic Average age method 3 5% 31.67% equipment The Group depreciates all fixed assets, except for fully depreciated fixed assets that are still in use and land that is separately accounted for. 22. Construction in progress √ Applicable □ N/A (1) Construction in progress is categorized and accounted for by standing items. (2) Criteria and point in time for carrying forward construction in progress to fixed assets Construction in progress is recognized as a fixed asset on the basis of all expenditures incurred before the asset is constructed and brought to its intended state of use. This includes construction costs, the original cost of machinery and equipment, other necessary expenses incurred to bring the construction in progress to its intended state of use, as well as borrowing costs incurred before the asset reaches its intended state of use for borrowing specifically for the project, and borrowing costs incurred for general borrowing used for the project. The Group transfers construction in progress to property, plant and equipment when the project has been installed or constructed to its intended state of use. Fixed assets that have reached the intended state of use but for which final accounts have not yet been finalized are transferred to fixed assets from the date they reach the intended state of use at their estimated value based on the project budget, construction cost or actual cost of the project, and depreciation is provided for in accordance with the Group's policy on depreciation of fixed assets, and after final accounts have been finalized the original provisional value is adjusted according to the actual cost, but the amount of depreciation provided for is not adjusted. The original provisional value will be adjusted according to the actual cost after the completion of the final accounts, without adjusting the depreciation originally provided. 23. Borrowing costs √ Applicable □ N/A (1) Recognition principles and capitalization period for capitalization of borrowing costs Borrowing costs incurred by the Group for the acquisition, construction or production of assets directly attributable to the assets eligible for capitalization shall be capitalized to the cost of the relevant assets when the following conditions are simultaneously met: ① Expenditures on assets have been incurred; ② Borrowing costs have been incurred; ③ The construction or production activities necessary to bring the asset to its intended state of use have begun. Other borrowing interests, discounts or premiums and exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. The capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended when there is an abnormal interruption in the construction or production of assets eligible for capitalization for more than three consecutive months. The capitalization of borrowing costs ceases when the assets eligible for capitalization have reached their intended use or saleable condition; any subsequent borrowing costs are recognized as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. (2) Calculation of the capitalization rate and amount of capitalized borrowing costs If a special loan is borrowed for the purpose of purchasing, constructing or producing an asset eligible for capitalization, the capitalized amount of interest expense on the special loan shall be determined by the actual interest expense incurred on the special loan during the period less the interest income from depositing the unused borrowed funds in a bank or the investment income from making a temporary investment. If general borrowings are used for the acquisition, construction or production of assets eligible for capitalization, the amount of interest to be capitalized on general borrowings shall be calculated by multiplying the weighted average amount of cumulative asset expenditures in excess of the portion of special-purpose borrowings by the capitalization rate of the general borrowings used to calculate the amount of interest to be capitalized on general borrowings. The capitalization rate is based on the weighted average interest rate of general borrowings. 145 / 250 Annual Report 2023 24. Biological assets □ Applicable √ N/A 25. Oil and gas assets □ Applicable √ N/A 26. Intangible assets (1). Useful life, basis for determining useful life, estimation, amortization method or review procedure √ Applicable □ N/A Intangible assets, including land use rights and software, are measured at cost and amortized equally over their estimated useful lives. (1) Land use rights Land use rights are amortized equally over their useful lives of 50 years. If it is difficult to allocate the purchase price of land and buildings between land use rights and buildings, all of them are recognized as fixed assets. (2) Computer software Acquired computer software is capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and put into use the specific software. The related costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of 2 to 10 years. Costs related to the maintenance of computer software programs are recognized as expenses as they are incurred. (3) Periodic review of useful lives and amortization methods The estimated useful lives and amortization methods of intangible assets with finite useful lives are reviewed and appropriately adjusted at the end of each year. The Group considers intangible assets for which the duration of future economic benefits is not foreseeable as intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and does not amortize such intangible assets. As at the end of the reporting period, the Group had no intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. Expenditures on the Group's internal research and development projects are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. (4) Impairment of intangible assets When the recoverable amount of an intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is written down to the recoverable amount. (2). Scope of attribution of R&D expenditures and related accounting treatment □ Applicable √ N/A 27. Impairment of long-lived assets √ Applicable □ N/A The Group examines items such as long-term equity investments, property and equipment, construction in progress, right-of-use assets and intangible assets with finite useful lives at each balance sheet date, and performs impairment tests when there are indications of impairment. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment at the end of each year, regardless of whether there is any indication of impairment. The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the asset's fair value less costs of disposal and the present value of the asset's estimated future cash flows. The Group estimates the recoverable amount of an asset on an individual basis; if it is difficult to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the recoverable amount of an asset group is determined on the basis of the asset group to which the asset belongs. An asset group is identified on the basis of whether the major cash inflows from the asset group are independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. When the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount, the Group writes down its carrying amount to its recoverable amount, and the amount of the write-down is recognized in profit or loss and a corresponding provision for asset impairment is made. For the purpose of impairment testing of goodwill, the carrying amount of goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to the relevant asset group on a reasonable basis from the date of purchase; if it is difficult to be allocated to the relevant asset group, the carrying amount is allocated to a portfolio of 146 / 250 Annual Report 2023 the relevant asset groups. The relevant asset group or portfolio of asset groups is one that can benefit from the synergies of the business combination and is not larger than the Group's reportable segments. When testing for impairment of the relevant asset group or portfolio of asset groups containing goodwill, if there is any indication of impairment for the asset group or portfolio of asset groups related to goodwill, the asset group or portfolio of asset groups that does not contain goodwill is first tested for impairment, the recoverable amount is calculated, and the corresponding impairment loss is recognized. If the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount, the amount of the impairment loss shall first be offset against the carrying amount of the goodwill allocated to the asset group or portfolio of assets, and then against the carrying amount of the other assets proportionally according to the proportion of the carrying amount of the other assets excluded from the asset group or portfolio of assets. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount after an impairment test, the difference is recognized as an impairment loss, which is not reversed in subsequent periods. 28. Long-term amortized expenses √ Applicable □ N/A Long-term amortized expenses are expenses incurred by the Group but shall be borne by the Group in the current and future periods with an amortization period of more than one year.Long-term amortization expenses These expenses are amortized equally over the period of benefit. If a long-term amortized expense item does not benefit a future accounting period, the amortized value of the item that has not been amortized is transferred to profit or loss for the current period. 29. Contract liabilities √ Applicable □ N/A Contract liabilities reflect the Group's obligations to transfer goods to clients for consideration received or receivable from clients. If the client has paid the contractual consideration or the Group has obtained the unconditional right to receive the contractual consideration before the Group transfers the goods to the client, contract liabilities are recognized for the amount received or receivable at the earlier of the actual payment made by the client and the amount due. 30. Employee remuneration (1). Accounting treatment of short-term remuneration √ Applicable □ N/A The Group's employee remuneration includes short-term remuneration, post-employment benefits and termination benefits. Short-term remuneration mainly includes employees' salaries, welfare fees and housing fund. Short- term remuneration actually incurred during the accounting period in which the employees render services is recognized as a liability and charged to current profit or loss or the cost of the relevant assets according to the beneficiary. (2). Accounting treatment of post-employment benefits √ Applicable □ N/A Post-employment benefits mainly include basic pension insurance premiums, unemployment insurance, etc., which are categorized as defined contribution plans in accordance with the risks and obligations assumed by the Company. Contributions to a defined contribution plan are recognized as a liability at the balance sheet date on the basis of contributions made to a separate entity in exchange for services rendered by employees during the accounting period, and are recognized in profit or loss or at the cost of the related assets, depending on the beneficiary. (3). Accounting treatment of termination benefits □ Applicable √ N/A (4). Accounting treatment of other long-term employee benefits □ Applicable √ N/A 147 / 250 Annual Report 2023 31. Projected liabilities √ Applicable □ N/A The Group recognizes a projected liability when the obligation relating to the contingency is a present obligation incurred by the Group, it is probable that the performance of the obligation will result in an outflow of economic benefits to the Group, and the amount can be measured reliably. A projected liability is initially measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the projected liability is determined on the basis of the discounted amount of the expected future cash flows. In determining the best estimate, the Group considers a portfolio of factors such as the risks and uncertainties associated with the contingency and the time value of money. Where there is a continuous range of required expenditures and the likelihood of each outcome within that range is equal, the best estimate is determined at the midpoint of the range; in other cases, the best estimate is treated as follows: - Where the contingency relates to a single item, it is determined on the basis of the most probable amount to be incurred. - Where a contingency relates to more than one item, it is determined on the basis of various possible outcomes and related probabilities. The Group reviews the carrying amount of the estimated liability at the balance sheet date and adjusts the carrying amount to the current best estimate. 32. Share-based payment √ Applicable □ N/A (1) Types of share-based payment and accounting treatment Share-based payment is a transaction in which a company grants an equity instrument or assumes a liability determined on the basis of an equity instrument in order to obtain services from employees. Share- based payment is categorized into equity-settled share-based payment and cash-settled share-based payment. 1) Equity-settled share-based payment Stock option plans are equity-settled share-based payments in exchange for services rendered by employees and are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted to employees at the grant date. Options may be exercised only upon completion of services or fulfillment of specified performance conditions during the waiting period. During the waiting period, based on the best estimate of the number of equity instruments that can be exercised, the services acquired during the period are recognized in the related costs or expenses at the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant date, and the capital surplus is increased accordingly. 2) Cash-settled share-based payment The stock appreciation rights plan is a cash-settled share-based payment, which is measured at the fair value of the liability assumed by the Company based on the number of shares of the Company. The cash- settled share-based payment is subject to the completion of services or the fulfillment of performance conditions during the waiting period. At each balance sheet date during the waiting period, based on the best estimate of the feasibility of the rights, the services acquired during the period are recognized as a cost or expense at the amount of the fair value of the liabilities assumed by the Company, and the liabilities are increased accordingly. The fair value of the liability is remeasured at each balance sheet date until the liability is settled and at the date of settlement, with the change recognized in profit or loss. (2) Method of determining the fair value of equity instruments The fair value of shares granted to employees is measured at the market price of the Company's shares, adjusted to take into account the terms and conditions under which the shares were granted (excluding the conditions for exercising the rights other than market conditions). For stock options granted to employees, the fair value of the options granted is estimated using an option pricing model. (3) Basis for recognizing the best estimate of feasible equity instruments At each balance sheet date during the waiting period, the number of equity instruments expected to become exercisable is revised by making a best estimate based on the latest available subsequent information, such as changes in the number of employees with exercisable rights. (4) Handling of modification and termination of the share-based payment plan 148 / 250 Annual Report 2023 If the modification of a share-based payment plan increases the fair value of the equity instruments granted, the increase in services received shall be recognized accordingly to the increase in the fair value of the equity instruments. If a modification of a share-based payment plan increases the number of equity instruments granted, the increase in the fair value of the equity instruments shall be recognized as an increase in services received accordingly. If the conditions for exercising rights are modified in a way that is favorable to the employee, such as shortening the waiting period or changing or eliminating performance conditions (instead of market conditions), the company takes the modified conditions into account when dealing with the conditions for exercising rights. If the terms and conditions are modified in a manner that reduces the total fair value of the share-based payment or is otherwise unfavorable to the employee, the services received continue to be accounted for as if the change had never occurred, unless some or all of the equity instruments granted are canceled. If the granted equity instruments are canceled during the waiting period, the canceled equity instruments are treated as accelerated exercise, and the remaining amount to be recognized during the waiting period is immediately recognized in profit or loss, and capital surplus is recognized. If the employees or other parties can choose to meet the non-optional conditions but fail to do so within the waiting period, the cancellation is treated as a cancellation of the granted equity instruments. 33. Preferred stock, perpetual bonds and other financial instruments □ Applicable √ N/A 34. Revenues (1). Disclosure of accounting policies adopted for revenue recognition and measurement by type of business √ Applicable □ N/A The Ministry of Finance ("MOF") issued ASBE No. 14 - Revenue (Revised) ("New Revenue Standard") in 2017. The New Revenue Standard replaces "ASBE No. 14 - Revenue" and "ASBE No. 15 - Construction Contracts" ("Previous Revenue Standard") issued in 2006. From January 1, 2020, the Group has implemented the new revenue standards. Revenue is the total inflow of economic benefits arising from the Group's ordinary activities that results in an increase in shareholders' equity and does not relate to the contribution of capital by shareholders. The Group recognizes revenue when it has fulfilled its performance obligations under a contract, i.e. when the client obtains control of the related goods or services. If a contract contains two or more performance obligations, the Group allocates the transaction price to each individual performance obligation on the basis of the relative proportion of the individual selling price of the goods or services promised under each individual performance obligation at the inception date of the contract, and measures revenue on the basis of the transaction price allocated to each individual performance obligation. For contracts with quality assurance clauses, the Group analyzes the nature of the warranty provided and treats the warranty as a separate performance obligation if the warranty provides a separate service from guaranteeing to the client that the goods sold meet the established standards. Otherwise, the Group accounts for them in accordance with the provisions of "ASBE No. 13 - Contingencies". The transaction price is the amount of consideration that the Group expects to be entitled to receive for the transfer of goods or services to the client, excluding amounts received on behalf of third parties. The Group recognizes a transaction price that does not exceed the amount by which it is more likely than not that a material reversal of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the related uncertainty is removed. Amounts expected to be returned to clients are recognized as a liability for returns and are not included in the transaction price. The Group has a performance obligation at a point in time when one of the following conditions is met; otherwise, the Group has a performance obligation at a point in time: - The client acquires and consumes the economic benefits arising from the Group's performance at the same time as the Group's performance; - The client is able to control the goods under construction in the course of the Group's performance; 149 / 250 Annual Report 2023 - The goods produced in the course of the Group's performance have a non-substitutable use and the Group is entitled to receive payment for the cumulative portion of performance completed to date throughout the term of the contract. The Group recognizes revenue on the basis of the progress of performance over a period of time for performance obligations that are to be fulfilled within that period. When the progress of performance is not reasonably determinable, the Group recognizes revenue on the basis of the amount of costs incurred until the progress of performance is reasonably determinable, provided that the costs incurred by the Group are expected to be reimbursed. For performance obligations fulfilled at a certain point in time, the Group recognizes revenue at the point in time when the client obtains control of the related goods or services. In determining whether a client has obtained control of goods or services, the Group considers the following indications: - The Group has a present right to receive payment for the good or service; - The Group has physically transferred the good to the client; - The Group has transferred legal title or the principal risks and rewards of ownership of the good to the client; - The client has accepted the goods or services, etc. The Group accounts for changes in the scope or price of a contract that have been approved by the parties to the contract separately under the following circumstances: - If a contract change adds clearly distinguishable goods and contract prices, and the new contract price reflects the separate selling price of the new goods, the changed part of the contract is accounted for as a separate contract; - If a contract change does not fall into the above category, and if the goods transferred or services provided are clearly distinguishable from those not transferred or provided at the date of the contract change, the original contract is deemed to be terminated, and the unperformed portion of the original contract and the changed portion of the contract are combined and accounted for as part of a new contract; - If a contract change does not fall under the above circumstances, i.e., if there is no clear distinction between goods transferred or services provided and goods not transferred or services not provided at the date of the contract change, the changed portion of the contract is accounted for as an integral part of the original contract, and the resulting impact on the recognized revenue is adjusted to current revenue at the date of the contract change. The right to receive consideration for goods or services that the Group has transferred to a client (and which is dependent on factors other than the passage of time) is recognized as a contract asset, which is impaired on the basis of expected credit losses. The Group's unconditional right to receive consideration from clients, which is dependent only on the passage of time, is presented as receivables. The Group's obligations to transfer goods or services to clients for which the Group has received or shall receive consideration from the clients are presented as contractual liabilities. 1) Revenue from sales of goods Revenue is recognized when the Group transfers control of goods to the client upon delivery to the purchaser and obtains a signed receipt, or when the goods are shipped on board a vessel. 2) Revenue from construction The client controls the merchandise during the construction of the project. Under this type of contract, the relevant goods are constructed in accordance with the client's specifications, and if the client terminates the contract, the Group is entitled to receive an amount that compensates it for the costs incurred and a reasonable profit for the portion of the performance that has been performed to date. Accordingly, the Group recognizes revenues and costs associated with the construction of the works over time. The Group determines the progress of performance based on the proportion of the cumulative actual contract costs incurred to the estimated total contract costs and recognizes revenue in accordance with the progress of performance. If revenue is recognized but not yet billed, the Group recognizes it as a contract asset. (2). The adoption of different operating models for the same type of business involves different revenue recognition and measurement methods □ Applicable √ N/A 35. Contract costs □ Applicable √ N/A 150 / 250 Annual Report 2023 36. Government subsidies √ Applicable □ N/A (1) Recognition of government grants Government grants are recognized only when the following conditions are simultaneously met: 1) The Group is able to fulfill the conditions attached to the government grants; 2) The Group is able to receive government grants. (2) Measurement of government grants If government grants are monetary assets, they are measured at the amount received or receivable. If the government grants are non-monetary assets, they are measured at fair value; if the fair value cannot be reliably obtained, they are measured at a nominal amount of RMB 1. (3) Accounting treatment of government grants 1) Asset-related government grants Government grants obtained by the Company for the purpose of purchasing, constructing or otherwise forming long-term assets are classified as asset-related government grants. Asset-related government grants are recognized as deferred income and recognized in profit or loss in a reasonable and systematic manner over the useful lives of the related assets. Government grants that are measured at nominal amounts are recognized directly in profit or loss. If an asset is sold, transferred, retired or destroyed before the end of its useful life, the unallocated balance of the deferred income is transferred to profit or loss in the period in which the asset is disposed of. 2) Government grants related to income Government grants other than those related to assets are classified as revenue-related government grants. Government grants related to income are accounted for as follows: Government grants used to compensate the Group for costs or losses incurred in future periods are recognized as deferred income and recognized in profit or loss in the period in which the costs or losses are recognized; For the purpose of compensating the Group for the related costs or losses already incurred, they are recognized directly in profit or loss for the current period. Government grants that contain both asset-related and revenue-related components are accounted for separately; if it is difficult to distinguish between the two, they are categorized as revenue-related government grants as a whole. Government grants related to the Group's daily activities are recognized in other income in accordance with the substance of the economic operations. Government grants that are not related to the Group's daily activities are recognized as non-operating revenue and expenses. 3) Policy-based preferential loan subsidies If the finance disburses the subsidized interest rate funds to a lending bank, and the lending bank provides loans to the Group at a preferential interest rate, the actual amount of the loan received shall be regarded as the recorded value of the loan, and the related borrowing costs shall be calculated on the basis of the principal amount of the loan and the preferential interest rate of the policy. When the subsidized interest rate funds are directly allocated to the Group by the financial authorities, the Group will offset the corresponding subsidized interest rate against the relevant borrowing costs. 4) Return of government grants When recognized government grants are to be returned, the carrying amount of the assets shall be adjusted if the carrying amount of the assets is reduced upon initial recognition; if there is a balance of deferred income, the balance of deferred income shall be reduced, and the excess shall be recognized in profit or loss for the current period; otherwise, the balance of deferred income shall be recognized in profit or loss for the current period directly. 37. Deferred tax assets/deferred tax liabilities √ Applicable □ N/A Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts (temporary differences). At the balance sheet date, deferred 151 / 250 Annual Report 2023 tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods when the assets are realized or the liabilities are settled. (1) Basis for recognizing deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized, and deductible losses and tax credits can be carried forward to future years. However, deferred tax assets arising from the initial recognition of assets or liabilities are not recognized if: 1) the transaction is not a business combination; and 2) the transaction affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable income or deductible losses at the time of the transaction. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences associated with investments in associates if the following conditions are met: it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and it is probable that taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized in the future. (2) Basis for recognizing deferred tax liabilities The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities for taxable temporary differences between current and prior periods. However, it does not include: 1) Temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of goodwill; 2) Temporary differences arising from transactions or events that are not part of a business combination and that, at the time of their occurrence, affect neither accounting profit nor taxable income (or deductible losses); 3) For taxable temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries and associates, the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. (3) Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are stated at the net amount after offsetting when the following conditions are simultaneously met 1) The enterprise has the legal right to settle current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities on a net basis; 2) Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity or on different taxable entities, but in each future period in which deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities of significance are reversed, the taxable entities involved intend to settle the current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets at the same time, The taxable entity intends to settle current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities on a net basis or acquire assets and settle liabilities simultaneously. 38. Leases √ Applicable □ N/A At the inception date of a contract, the Group assesses whether the contract is a lease or contains a lease. A contract is a lease or contains a lease if one of the parties to the contract transfers the right to control the use of one or more identified assets for a period of time in exchange for consideration. (1) Separation of Lease Contracts When a contract contains several individual leases, the Group splits the contract and accounts for each individual lease separately. When a contract contains both leases and non-leases, the Group splits the leases and non-leases, and the leases are accounted for in accordance with the leasing standards, while the non- leases are accounted for in accordance with other applicable accounting standards. (2) Consolidation of lease contracts Two or more contracts containing leases entered into by the Group with the same counterparty or its affiliates at the same or similar times shall be consolidated into one contract for accounting purposes when one of the following conditions is met. a.

Low-value asset leases are leases with a lower value when the individual leased asset is a brand new asset. The Group does not recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for the following short-term leases and low-value asset leases, and the related lease payments are charged to the cost of the related assets or to current profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Group recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases other than short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. Lease classification criteria and accounting treatment as lessor √ Applicable □ N/A The Company classifies leases as finance leases and operating leases at the inception date of the lease. A finance lease is a lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased asset, which may or may not ultimately be transferred. Operating leases refer to leases other than finance leases. During the reporting period, the Company's leases were all operating leases, and lease payments under operating leases were recognized as rental income using the straight-line method or other systematic and reasonable methods in each period of the lease term: initial direct costs incurred in connection with the operating leases were capitalized and apportioned over the lease term on the same basis as the rental income, and were charged to current profit or loss; and variable lease payments relating to operating leases that were not included in the lease payments were charged to current profit or loss when they were actually incurred. Variable lease payments relating to operating leases that are not recognized as lease receipts are recognized in profit or loss when they are actually incurred. 39.

Risks Related to Financial Instruments 1. Risks of financial instruments √ Applicable □ N/A The Group's major financial instruments include bills receivable, short-term loans, receivables and payables, etc. For details of each financial instrument, please refer to the relevant item in Note 6. The risks associated with these financial instruments and the risk management policies adopted by the Group to minimize these risks are described below. The Group's management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure that the above risks are controlled within limits. 1. Risk management objectives and policies The Group engages in risk management with the objective of striking an appropriate balance between risk and return, minimizing the negative impact of risks on the Group's operating results and maximizing the interests of shareholders and other equity investors. Based on this risk management objective, the basic strategy of the Group's risk management is to identify and analyze the various risks faced by the Group, to establish an appropriate risk tolerance threshold and to manage the risks, and to monitor the various risks in a timely and reliable manner in order to control the risks within a limited scope. (1) Market risk 1) Exchange rate risk The Group's exposure to exchange rate risk is mainly related to U.S. Dollars, Vietnamese Dong, Thai Baht, and Indonesian Rupiah. Except for several subsidiaries of the Group that make purchases and sales in U.S. Dollars, the Group's other major business activities are denominated in RMB. As at December 31, 2023, the Group's assets and liabilities were denominated in RMB, except for the U.S. dollars, Vietnamese dong, Thai Baht and Indonesian Rupiah in respect of the assets and liabilities described in the table below. The exchange rate risk arising from these assets and liabilities in U.S. Dollars, Vietnamese dong, Thai Baht and Indonesian Rupiah balances may have an impact on the Group's results of operations. 222 / 250 Annual Report 2023 Items Closing balance Currency Funds - U.S. Dollars 3,748,545.73 Currency Funds - Indonesian Rupiah 8,743,199,002.17 Currency Funds - Thai Baht 76,517,131.11 Currency Funds - Singapore Dollar 203,132.53 Currency Funds - Malaysian Ringgit 2,481,240.08 Accounts Receivable - Vietnamese Dong 65,794,772,773.97 Accounts Receivable - Thai Baht 15,281,627.16 Accounts Receivable - Indonesian Rupiah 22,101,919,045.55 Accounts Receivable - U.S. Dollars 86,277.44 Accounts Receivable - Malaysian Ringgit 4,624,048.87 Other Payables - Vietnamese Dong 1,662,008,804.00 Other Payables - U.S. Dollars 2,520,904.35 Other Payables - Singapore Dollars 13,065.05 Other Payables - Malaysian Ringgit 3,270,210.72 Other Payables - Thai Baht 170,399.98 Other Payables - Indonesian Rupiah 3,979,000.00 Accounts Payable - U.S. Dollars 2,620,213.69 Accounts Payable - Vietnamese Dong 109,890,106,665.00 Accounts Payable - Thai Baht 43,079,267.95 Accounts Payable - Indonesian Rupiah 6,562,729,319.00 Accounts Payable - Malaysian Ringgit 125,035.53 Other Receivables - Vietnamese Dong 1,575,591,873.25 Other Receivables - Thai Baht 1,569,680.05 Other Receivables - Indonesian Rupiah 395,075,731.69 Other Receivables - Malaysian Ringgit 43,250.01 2) Interest Rate Risk The Group's interest rate risk arises from interest-bearing debts such as bank borrowings and bonds payable. Financial liabilities with fixed interest rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The Group determines the relative proportion of fixed interest rates based on the prevailing market conditions. The Group's risk of changes in fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates is mainly related to fixed-rate bank borrowings. For fixed rate borrowings, the Group's objective is to maintain its floating interest rate. The Group is not highly sensitive to interest rate fluctuations and has no significant interest rate risk. (2) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to fulfill its obligations, resulting in a financial loss to the other party. The Group's credit risk mainly arises from currency funds, receivables and contract assets. The management continuously monitors these credit risk exposures. The Group's monetary funds other than cash are mainly deposited with creditworthy financial institutions, which management believes do not have significant credit risk and are not expected to incur losses to the Group as a result of default by the counterparties. The Group's maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amount of each financial asset in the balance sheet. The Group has not provided any other guarantees that may expose the Group to credit risk. The Group's credit risk from accounts receivable and contract assets is primarily driven by the characteristics of each individual client, rather than the industry or country or region in which the client is 223 / 250 Annual Report 2023 located. Consequently, significant concentrations of credit risk arise mainly from the existence of significant accounts receivable and contract assets of the Group in respect of individual clients. As at December 31, 2023, the accounts receivable and contract assets of the Group's top five clients accounted for 42.90% (2022: 46.80%) of the Group's total accounts receivable and contract assets. In respect of accounts receivable, the Group has formulated a credit policy based on the actual situation and conducts credit assessment on clients to determine the credit amount and credit period. The credit assessment is mainly based on the client's financial position, external ratings and bank credit history (where possible). The receivables are generally due within 30 to 120 days from the date of billing. Under normal circumstances, the Group does not require clients to provide collateral. (3) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk of shortage of funds when the Group fulfills its obligations to settle by delivery of cash or other financial assets. The Company and its subsidiaries are responsible for their own cash management, including the short-term investment of cash surpluses and the raising of loans to meet anticipated cash requirements (subject to the approval of the Group's Board of Directors if borrowings are in excess of certain pre-determined authorization limits). It is the Group's policy to regularly monitor short- term and long-term liquidity requirements and compliance with borrowing agreements to ensure that adequate cash reserves are maintained and that commitments are obtained from major financial institutions to provide sufficient standby funds to meet short-term and longer-term liquidity requirements. In order to control this risk, the Group regularly monitors the short-term and long-term liquidity requirements and compliance with the provisions of the borrowing agreements to ensure that sufficient cash reserves are maintained, and has obtained commitments from major financial institutions to provide sufficient standby funds to meet short-term and longer-term liquidity requirements. As at December 31, 2023, the remaining contractual maturity of the Group's financial liabilities as at the balance sheet date based on the undiscounted contractual cash flows, including interest at contractual interest rates (or at the prevailing interest rate as at the reporting date in the case of floating interest rates), and the earliest date on which payments will be required are as follows: 2. Sensitivity analysis The Group employs sensitivity analysis techniques to analyze the impact that reasonable and probable changes in risk variables may have on current profit or loss or shareholders' equity. Since changes in any of the risk variables rarely occur in isolation and the correlation that exists between the variables will play a significant role in the amount of the eventual impact of a change in one of the risk variables, the following has been performed assuming that the changes in each of the variables are independent. The impact on total profit and shareholders' equity of the appreciation/depreciation of RMB as a result of the changes in RMB against the US Dollar and the Vietnamese dong as at December 31, 2023 is presented in RMB at the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Since the impact on total profit and shareholders' equity of financial instruments in other currencies in the event of exchange rate changes is not material, the related sensitivity analysis is omitted here. The Company believes that its exposure to exchange rate risk is generally manageable. FY2023 Items Exchange rate changes Impact on net Impact on profit shareholders' equity Depreciation of RMB Appreciation of 5% against -462,604.74 -462,604.74 against USD RMB Appreciation of RMB Depreciation of 5% against 462,604.74 462,604.74 against USD RMB Depreciation of RMB Appreciation of 5% against -1,299,848.44 -1,299,848.44 against Vietnamese Dong RMB Appreciation of RMB Depreciation of 5% against 1,299,848.44 1,299,848.44 against Vietnamese Dong RMB The above sensitivity analysis is based on the re-measurement of financial instruments held by the Group that are exposed to exchange rate risk at the balance sheet date, assuming that the exchange rate at the balance sheet date has changed during the reporting period, using the changed exchange rate. 3. Capital management The main objectives of the Group's capital management are to ensure the Group's ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain healthy capital ratios to support business development and maximize shareholder value. The Group manages its capital structure and adjusts it in accordance with changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital 224 / 250 Annual Report 2023 structure, the Group may adjust profit distribution to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Group is not subject to external mandatory capital requirements. For the period January- December 2023, there have been no changes in capital management objectives, policies or procedures. The Group monitors its capital through the asset-liability ratio, which is calculated as total liabilities divided by total assets. The asset-liability ratios at December 31, 2023 were as follows: Item Balance at end of year Balance at beginning of year Total liabilities 814,397,427.78 765,070,712.09 Total assets 1,904,362,490.44 1,778,281,762.96 Asset-liability ratio 42.76% 43.02% 2.
