Other Information

Management of Yantai Changyu is responsible for the other information. The other
information comprises all the information included in the 2023 annual report, other than the
financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent
with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to
be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement
of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this
regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial
Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial
statements in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises, and for
the design, implementation and maintenance of such internal control necessary to enable
that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing Yantai
Changyu’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to
going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either
intends to liquidate Yantai Changyu or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but
to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing Yantai Changyu’s financial
reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as
a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an
auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of
assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with CSAs will
always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or
error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these
financial statements.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (continued)

As part of an audit in accordance with CSAs, we exercise professional judgement and
maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

(1)   Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
      whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those
      risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
      our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is
      higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
      intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

(2)   Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
      procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances.

(3)   Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
      accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.

(4)   Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of
      accounting and, basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained,
      whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast
      significant doubt on Yantai Changyu’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we
      conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our
      auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such
      disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the
      audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events
      or conditions may cause Yantai Changyu to cease to continue as a going concern.

(5)   Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements,
      including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the
      underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

(6)   Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the
      entities or business activities within the Group to express our audit opinion on the
      financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and
      performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (continued)

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant
deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with
relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate with them all
relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence
and, where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those
matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the year and
are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless
law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare
circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report
because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh
the public interest benefits of such communication.

6   Accounting treatments for business combinations involving entities under common control
    and not under common control

    A transaction constitutes a business combination when the Group obtains control of one or
    more entities (or a group of assets or net assets). Business combination is classified as
    either business combinations involving enterprises under common control or business
    combinations not involving enterprises under common control.

                                                                     Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited

      For a transaction not involving enterprises under common control, the acquirer determines
      whether acquired set of assets constitute a business. The Group may elect to apply the
      simplified assessment method, the concentration test, to determine whether an acquired set
      of assets is not a business. If the concentration test is met and the set of assets is
      determined not to be a business, no further assessment is needed. If the concentration test
      is not met, the Group shall perform the assessment according to the guidance on the
      determination of a business.

      When the set of assets the group acquired does not constitute a business, acquisition costs
      should be allocated to each identifiable assets and liabilities at their acquisitiondate fair
      values. It is not required to apply the accounting of business combination described as
      below.

(1)   Business combinations involving entities under common control

      A business combination involving entities under common control is a business combination in
      which all of the combining entities are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both
      before and after the business combination, and that control is not transitory. The assets
      acquired and liabilities assumed are measured based on their carrying amounts in the
      consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party at the combination date.
      The difference between the carrying amount of the net assets acquired and the consideration
      paid for the combination (or the total par value of shares issued) is adjusted against share
      premium in the capital reserve, with any excess adjusted against retained earnings. Any
      costs directly attributable to the combination are recognised in profit or loss when incurred.
      The combination date is the date on which one combining entity obtains control of other
      combining entities.

(2)   Business combinations involving entities not under common control

      A business combination involving entities not under common control is a business
      combination in which all of the combining entities are not ultimately controlled by the same
      party or parties both before and after the business combination. Where (1) the aggregate of
      the acquisition-date fair value of assets transferred (including the acquirer’s previously held
      equity interest in the acquiree), liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued
      by the acquirer, in exchange for control of the acquiree, exceeds (2) the acquirer’s interest in
      the acquisition-date fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets, the difference is
      recognised as goodwill (see Note III.19). If (1) is less than (2), the difference is recognised in
      profit or loss for the current period. Other acquisition-related costs are expensed when
      incurred. The acquiree’s identifiable asset, liabilities and contingent liabilities, if the
      recognition criteria are met, are recognised by the Group at their acquisition-date fair value.
      The acquisition date is the date on which the acquirer obtains control of the acquiree.

      For a business combination involving entities not under common control and achieved in
      stages, the Group remeasures its previously-held equity interest in the acquiree to its
      acquisition-date fair value and recognises any resulting difference between the fair value and
      the carrying amount as investment income or other comprehensive income for the current
      period. In addition, any amount recognised in other comprehensive income that may be
      reclassified to profit or loss, in prior reporting periods relating to the previously-held equity
      interest, and any other changes in the owners’ equity under equity accounting, are
      transferred to investment income in the period in which the acquisition occurs (see Note
      III.12(2)(b)). If equity interests of the acquiree held before acquisition-date were equity
      instrument investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, other
      comprehensive income recognised shall be moved to retained earnings on acquisition-date.

7     Criteria of control and preparation of consolidated financial statements

(1)   General principles

      The scope of consolidated financial statements is based on control and the consolidated
      financial statements comprise the Company and its subsidiaries. Control exists when the
      investor has all of following: power over the investee; exposure, or rights, to variable returns
      from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its
      power over the investee. When assessing whether the Group has power, only substantive
      rights (held by the Group and other parties) are considered. The financial position, financial
      performance and cash flows of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial
      statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

      Non-controlling interests are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet within
      shareholders’ equity. Net profit or loss attributable to non-controlling shareholders is
      presented separately in the consolidated income statement below the net profit line item.
      Total comprehensive income attributable to non-controlling shareholders is presented
      separately in the consolidated income statement below the total comprehensive income line
      item.

      When the amount of loss for the current period attributable to the non-controlling
      shareholders of a subsidiary exceeds the non-controlling shareholders’ share of the opening
      owners’ equity of the subsidiary, the excess is still allocated against the non-controlling
      interests.

      When the accounting period or accounting policies of a subsidiary are different from those of
      the Company, the Company makes necessary adjustments to the financial statements of the
      subsidiary based on the Company’s own accounting period or accounting policies. Intra-
      group balances and transactions, and any unrealised profit or loss arising from intra-group
      transactions, are eliminated when preparing the consolidated financial statements.
      Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in the same way as
      unrealised gains, unless they represent impairment losses that are recognised in the
      financial statements.

(2)   Subsidiaries acquired through a business combination

      Where a subsidiary was acquired during the reporting period, through a business
      combination involving entities under common control, the financial statements of the
      subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements based on the carrying
      amounts of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary in the financial statements of the
      ultimate controlling party as if the combination had occurred at the date that the ultimate
      controlling party first obtained control. The opening balances and the comparative figures of
      the consolidated financial statements are also restated.

      Where a subsidiary was acquired during the reporting period, through a business
      combination involving entities not under common control, the identifiable assets and liabilities
      of the acquired subsidiaries are included in the scope of consolidation from the date that
      control commences, based on the fair value of those identifiable assets and liabilities at the
      acquisition date.




                                                     23
                                                                     Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited
                                                          Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023




(3)   Disposal of subsidiaries

      When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, any resulting disposal gains or losses are
      recognised as investment income for the current period. The remaining equity investment is
      re-measured at its fair value at the date when control is lost, any resulting gains or losses are
      also recognised as investment income for the current period.

      When the Group loses control of a subsidiary in multiple transactions in which it disposes of
      its long-term equity investment in the subsidiary in stages, the following are considered to
      determine whether the Group should account for the multiple transactions as a bundled
      transaction:

      - arrangements are entered into at the same time or in contemplation of each other;
      - arrangements work together to achieve an overall commercial effect;
      - the occurrence of one arrangement is dependent on the occurrence of at least one other
        arrangement;
      - one arrangement considered on its own is not economically justified, but it is economically
        justified when considered together with other arrangements.

      If each of the multiple transactions does not form part of a bundled transaction, the
      transactions conducted before the loss of control of the subsidiary are accounted for in
      accordance with the accounting policy for partial disposal of equity investment in subsidiaries
      where control is retained (see Note III.7(4)).

      If each of the multiple transactions forms part of a bundled transaction which eventually
      results in the loss of control in the subsidiary, these multiple transactions are accounted for
      as a single transaction. In the consolidated financial statements, the difference between the
      consideration received and the corresponding proportion of the subsidiary’s net assets
      (calculated continuously from the acquisition date) in each transaction prior to the loss of
      control shall be recognised in other comprehensive income and transferred to profit or loss
      when the parent eventually loses control of the subsidiary.

(4)   Changes in non-controlling interests

      Where the Company acquires a non-controlling interest from a subsidiary’s non-controlling
      shareholders or disposes of a portion of an interest in a subsidiary without a change in
      control, the difference between the proportion interests of the subsidiary’s net assets being
      acquired or disposed and the amount of the consideration paid or received is adjusted to the
      capital reserve (share premium) in the consolidated balance sheet, with any excess adjusted
      to retained earnings.

8     Cash and cash equivalents

      Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits that can be readily withdraw on
      demand, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known
      amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

9     Foreign currency transactions and translation of foreign currency financial statements

      When the Group receives capital in foreign currencies from investors, the capital is translated
      to Renminbi at the spot exchange rate at the date of the receipt. Other foreign currency
      transactions are, on initial recognition, translated to Renminbi at the spot exchange rates.




                                                     24
                                                                       Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited
                                                            Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023




      Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Renminbi at the spot
      exchange rate at the balance sheet date. The resulting exchange differences are generally
      recognised in profit or loss, unless they arise from the re-translation of the principal and
      interest of specific borrowings for the acquisition and construction of qualifying assets (see
      Note III. 16). Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in foreign currencies
      are translated to Renminbi using the exchange rate at the transaction date.

      In translating the financial statements of a foreign operation, assets and liabilities of foreign
      operation are translated to Renminbi at the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date.
      Equity items, excluding retained earnings and the translation differences in other
      comprehensive income, are translated to Renminbi at the spot exchange rates at the
      transaction dates. Income and expenses in the income statement are translated to Renminbi
      at the spot exchange rates at the transaction dates. The resulting translation differences are
      recognised in other comprehensive income. The translation differences accumulated in other
      comprehensive income with respect to a foreign operation are transferred to profit or loss in
      the period when the foreign operation is disposed.

10    Financial instruments

      Financial instruments include cash at bank and on hand, investments in debt and equity
      securities other than those classified as long-term equity investments (see Note III.12),
      receivables, payables, loans and borrowings and share capital.

(1)   Recognition and initial measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities

      A financial asset or financial liability is recognised in the balance sheet when the Group
      becomes a party to the contractual provisions of a financial instrument.

      A financial assets (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component)
      and financial liabilities is measured initially at fair value. For financial assets and financial
      liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, any related directly attributable transaction costs
      are charged to profit or loss; for other categories of financial assets and financial liabilities,
      any related directly attributable transaction costs are included in their initial costs. A trade
      receivable, without significant financing component or practical expedient applied for one
      year or less contracts, is initially measured at the transaction price in accordance with Note
      III.25.

(2)   Classification and subsequent measurement of financial assets

      (a)   Classification of financial assets

            The classification of financial assets is generally based on the business model in which
            a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics. On initial
            recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at amortised cost, at fair value
            through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”), or at fair value through profit or loss
            (“FVTPL”).

            Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the
            Group changes its business model for managing financial assets in which case all
            affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period
            following the change in the business model.




                                                       25
                                                                 Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited
                                                      Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023




      A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following
      conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

      - it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect
        contractual cash flows; and
      - its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
        payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

      A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and
      is not designated as at FVTPL:

      - it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting
        contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and
      - its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
        payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

      On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Group may
      irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investment’s fair value in other
      comprehensive income. This election is made on an investment-by-investment basis.
      The instrument meets the definition of equity from the perspective of the issuer.

      All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as
      described above are measured at FVTPL. On initial recognition, the Group may
      irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be
      measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or
      significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

      The business model refers to how the Group manages its financial assets in order to
      generate cash flows. That is, the Group’s business model determines whether cash
      flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling financial assets or both.
      The Group determines the business model for managing the financial assets according
      to the facts and based on the specific business objective for managing the financial
      assets determined by the Group’s key management personnel.

      In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and
      interest, the Group considers the contractual terms of the instrument. For the purposes
      of this assessment, ‘principal’ is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on initial
      recognition. ‘Interest’ is defined as consideration for the time value of money and for
      the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular
      period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs, as well as a profit margin.
      The Group also assesses whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that
      could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not
      meet this condition.

(b)   Subsequent measurement of financial assets

      - Financial assets at FVTPL

         These financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and
         losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognised in profit or loss
         unless the financial assets are part of a hedging relationship.




                                                 26
                                                                        Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited

            - Financial assets at amortised cost

               These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective
               interest method. A gain or loss on a financial asset that is measured at amortised
               cost and is not part of a hedging relationship shall be recognised in profit or loss
               when the financial asset is derecognised, reclassified, through the amortisation
               process or in order to recognise impairment gains or losses.

            - Debt investments at FVOCI

               These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated
               using the effective interest method, impairment and foreign exchange gains and
               losses are recognised in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognised in
               other comprehensive income. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in
               other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

            - Equity investments at FVOCI

               These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognised
               as income in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognised in other
               comprehensive income. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in other
               comprehensive income are reclassified to retained earnings.

(3)   Classification and subsequent measurement of financial liabilities

      Financial liabilities are classified as measured at FVTPL or amortised cost by the Group.

      - Financial liabilities at FVTPL

         A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading (including
         derivative financial liability) or it is designated as such on initial recognition.

         Financial liabilities at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value and net gains and
         losses, including any interest expense, are recognised in profit or loss, unless the financial
         liabilities are part of a hedging relationship.

      - Financial liabilities at amortised cost

         These financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective
         interest method.

(4)   Offsetting

      Financial assets and financial liabilities are generally presented separately in the balance
      sheet, and are not offset. However, a financial asset and a financial liability are offset and
      the net amount is presented in the balance sheet when both of the following conditions are
      satisfied:

      - The Group currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts;
      - The Group intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the financial asset and
        settle the financial liability simultaneously.

                                                                      Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited

(5)   Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities

      Financial asset is derecognised when one of the following conditions is met:

      - the Group’s contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire;
      - the financial asset has been transferred and the Group transfers substantially all of the
        risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; or;
      - the financial asset has been transferred, although the Group neither transfers nor retains
        substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, it does not
        retain control over the transferred asset.

      Where a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety meets the criteria for derecognition, the
      difference between the two amounts below is recognised in profit or loss:

      - the carrying amount of the financial asset transferred measured at the date of
        derecognition;
      - the sum of the consideration received from the transfer and, when the transferred financial
        asset is a debt investment at FVOCI, any cumulative gain or loss that has been
        recognised directly in other comprehensive income for the part derecognised.

      The Group derecognises a financial liability (or part of it) only when its contractual obligation
      (or part of it) is extinguished.

(6)   Impairment

      The Group recognises loss allowances for expected credit loss (ECL) on:

      - financial assets measured at amortised cost;
      - financial investments at fair value through other comprehensive income

      Financial assets measured at fair value, including debt investments or equity securities at
      FVPL, equity securities designated at FVOCI and derivative financial assets, are not subject
      to the ECL assessment.

      Measurement of ECLs

      ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as
      the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the
      entity in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive).

      The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period
      (including extension options) over which the Group is exposed to credit risk.

      Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life
      of a financial instrument.

      12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible
      within the 12 months after the balance sheet date (or a shorter period if the expected life of
      the instrument is less than 12 months).




                                                      28
                                                              Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited

Loss allowances for bills receivable, accounts receivable and receivables under financing
arising from oridinary business activities such as sale of goods and provision of services ,are
always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. ECLs on these financial assets are
estimated using a provision matrix based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience,
adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors and an assessment of both the current
and forecast general economic conditions at the balance sheet date.

Except for bills receivable, accounts receivable, receivables under financing, the Group
measures loss allowances at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs for the following financial
instruments, and at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs for all other financial instruments:

- If the financial instrument is determined to have low credit risk at the balance sheet date;
- If the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial
  recognition.

Provisions for bad and doubtful debts arising from receivables

(a)   Categories of groups for collective assessment based on credit risk characteristics and
      basis for determination

                                 Based on the different credit risk characteristics of acceptors,
       Bills receivable          the Group classifies bills receivable into two groups: bank
                                 acceptance bills and commercial acceptance bills.
                                 Historically, there is no significant difference in terms of
                                 occurrence of losses among different customer types for the
                                 Group. Therefore, the Group makes provisions for bad and
       Accounts receivable
                                 doubtful debts arising from accounts receivable on the basis
                                 of all customers being one group without further
                                 segmentation by different customer types.
                                 The Group’s receivables under financing are bank
       Receivables under         acceptance bills held for dual purposes. As the accepting
        financing                banks have high credit ratings, the Group considers all
                                 receivables under financing as a group.
                                 The Group’s other receivables mainly include deposits and
                                 guarantees receivable,ect. Based on the nature of
                                 receivables and the credit risk characteristics of different
       Other receivables
                                 counterparties, the Group classifies other receivables into 2
                                 groups, specifically: the group of deposits and guarantees
                                 receivable and the group of other receivables.

(b)   Criteria for individual assessment

      Bills receivable, accounts receivable , receivables under financing, and other
      receivables are usually assessed collectively as a group based on credit risk
      characteristics to make provisions. When a counterparty is significantly different from
      other counterparties in the group in terms of credit risk characteristics, or if there has
      been a significant change in its credit risk characteristics, the individual approach is
      adopted for receivables due from this counterparty. For example, when a counterparty
      is in serious financial difficulties and the expected credit loss ratio of receivables due
      from this counterparty is significantly higher than the average expected credit loss ratio
      of the relevant ageing range, it should be individualy assessed for provisioning
      purposes.


Financial instruments that have low credit risk

The credit risk on a financial instrument is considered low if the financial instrument has a low
risk of default, the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow
obligations in the near term and adverse changes in economic and business conditions in the
longer term may, but will not necessarily, reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfil its
contractual cash flow obligations.

Significant increases in credit risk

In assessing whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly since
initial recognition, the Group compares the risk of default occurring on the financial
instrument assessed at the balance sheet date with that assessed at the date of initial
recognition.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly
since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, the Group considers reasonable and
supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort, including
forward-looking information. In particular, the following information is taken into account:

- failure to make payments of principal and interest on their contractually due dates;
- an actual or expected significant deterioration in a financial instrument’s external or
  internal credit rating (if available);
- an actual or expected significant deterioration in the operating results of the debtor; and
- existing or forecast changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment
  that have a significant adverse effect on the debtor’s ability to meet its obligation to the
  Group.

Depending on the nature of the financial instruments, the assessment of a significant
increase in credit risk is performed on either an individual basis or a collective basis. When
the assessment is performed on a collective basis, the financial instruments are grouped
based on shared credit risk characteristics, such as past due status and credit risk ratings.

The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is
more than 30 days past due.

      Credit-impaired financial assets

      At each balance sheet date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at
      amortised cost and debt investments at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is
      ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated
      future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is
      credit-impaired includes the following observable data:

      - significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;
      - a breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
      - for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, the
        Group having granted to the borrower a concession that would not otherwise consider;
      - it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; or
      - the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial
        difficulties.

      Presentation of allowance for ECL

      ECLs are remeasured at each balance sheet date to reflect changes in the financial
      instrument’s credit risk since initial recognition. Any change in the ECL amount is recognised
      as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss. The Group recognises an impairment gain or
      loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount
      through a loss allowance account, except for debt investments that are measured at FVOCI,
      for which the loss allowance is recognised in other comprehensive income.

      Write-off

      The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the
      extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. A write-off constitutes a derecognition
      event. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor does not have
      assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts
      subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to
      enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of
      amounts due.

      Subsequent recoveries of an asset that was previously written off are recognised as a
      reversal of impairment in profit or loss in the period in which the recovery occurs.

(7)   Equity instrument

      The consideration received from the issuance of equity instruments net of transaction costs
      is recognised in shareholders’ equity. Consideration and transaction costs paid by the
      Company for repurchasing self-issued equity instruments are deducted from shareholders’
      equity.

      When the Company repurchases its own shares, those shares are treated as treasury
      shares. All expenditure relating to the repurchase is recorded in the cost of the treasury
      shares, with the transaction recording in the share register. Treasury shares are excluded
      from profit distributions and are presented as a deduction under shareholders’ equity in the
      balance sheet.

11    Inventories

(1)   Categories

      Inventories include raw materials, work in progress and finished goods. Inventories are
      initially measured at cost. Cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of
      conversion and other expenditure incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location
      and condition. In addition to the purchase cost of raw materials, work in progress and
      finished goods include direct labour costs and an appropriate allocation of production
      overheads.

      Agricultural products harvested are reported in accordance with the CAS No.1 - Inventories.

(2)   Measurement method of cost of inventories

      Cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average method.

(3)   Inventory count system

      The Group maintains a perpetual inventory system.

(4)   Amortisation method for low-value consumables and packaging materials

      Consumables including low-value consumables and packaging materials are charged to
      profit or loss upon receipt. The amortisation charge is included in the cost of the related
      assets or recognised in profit or loss for the current period.

(5)   Criteria and method for provision for obsolete inventories

      At the balance sheet date, inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable
      value.

      Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the
      estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale and
      relevant taxes. The net realisable value of materials held for use in production is measured
      based on the net realisable value of the finished goods in which they will be incorporated.
      The net realisable value of inventory held to satisfy sales or service contracts is measured
      based on the contract price. If the quantities of inventories held by the Group exceed the
      quantities specified in sales contracts, the net realisable value of the excess portion of
      inventories is based on general selling prices.

      Any excess of the cost over the net realisable value of each item of inventories is recognised
      as a provision for obsolete inventories, and is recognised in profit or loss.

12    Long-term equity investments

(1)   Investment cost of long-term equity investments

      (a)   Long-term equity investments acquired through a business combination

            - The initial cost of a long-term equity investment acquired through a business
              combination involving entities under common control is the Company’s share of the
              carrying amount of the subsidiary’s equity in the consolidated financial statements of
              the ultimate controlling party at the combination date. The difference between the
              initial investment cost and the carrying amount of the consideration given is adjusted
              to the share premium in the capital reserve, with any excess adjusted to retained
              earnings. For a long-term equity investment in a subsidiary acquired through a
              business combination achieved in stages which do not form a bundled transaction
              and involving entities under common control, the Company determines the initial
              cost of the investment in accordance with the above policies. The difference
              between this initial cost and the sum of the carrying amount of previously-held
              investment and the consideration paid for the shares newly acquired is adjusted to
              capital premium in the capital reserve, with any excess adjusted to retained
              earnings.

            - For a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not
              involving enterprises under common control, the initial cost comprises the aggregate
              of the fair value of assets transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity
              securities issued by the Company, in exchange for control of the acquiree. For a
              long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not involving
              entities under common control and achieved through multiple transactions in stages
              which do not form a bundled transaction, the initial cost comprises the carrying
              amount of the previously-held equity investment in the acquiree immediately before
              the acquisition date, and the additional investment cost at the acquisition date.

      (b)   Long-term equity investments acquired other than through a business combination

            - A long-term equity investment acquired other than through a business combination
              is initially recognised at the amount of cash paid if the Group acquires the
              investment by cash, or at the fair value of the equity securities issued if an
              investment is acquired by issuing equity securities.

(2)   Subsequent measurement of long-term equity investment

      (a)   Investments in subsidiaries

            In the Company’s separate financial statements, long-term equity investments in
            subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method unless the investment is
            classified as held for sale (See Note III. 31). Except for cash dividends or profit
            distributions declared but not yet distributed that have been included in the price or
            consideration paid in obtaining the investments, the Company recognises its share of
            the cash dividends or profit distributions declared by the investee as investment income
            for the current period.

            The investments in subsidiaries are stated in the balance sheet at cost less
            accumulated impairment losses.

                                                                Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited
                                                     Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023




      For the impairment of the investments in subsidiaries, refer to Note III.21.

      In the Group’s consolidated financial statements, subsidiaries are accounted for in
      accordance with the policies described in Note III.7.

(b)   Investment in joint ventures and associates

      A joint venture is an arrangement whereby the Group and other parties have joint
      control (see Note III.12(3)) and rights to the net assets of the arrangement.

      Associated enterprises refer to enterprises to which the Group can exercise significant
      influence (see Note III.12(3)).

      A long-term equity investment in a joint venture or an associate is accounted for using
      the equity method for subsequent measurement, unless the investment is classified as
      held for sale (see Note III.31).

      The accounting treatments under the equity method adopted by the Group are as
      follows:

      - Where the initial cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the Group’s interest
        in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition, the
        investment is initially recognised at cost. Where the initial investment cost is less
        than the Group’s interest in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at
        the date of acquisition, the investment is initially recognised at the investor’s share
        of the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets, and the difference is
        recognised in profit or loss.

      - After the acquisition of the investment, the Group recognises its share of the
        investee’s profit or loss and other comprehensive income as investment income or
        losses and other comprehensive income respectively, and adjusts the carrying
        amount of the investment accordingly. Once the investee declares any cash
        dividends or profit distributions, the carrying amount of the investment is reduced by
        the amount attributable to the Group. Changes in the Group’s share of the
        investee’s owners’ equity, other than those arising from the investee’s net profit or
        loss, other comprehensive income or profit distribution (referred to as “other
        changes in owners’ equity”), is recognised directly in the Group’s equity, and the
        carrying amount of the investment is adjusted accordingly.

      - In calculating its share of the investee’s net profits or losses, other comprehensive
        income and other changes in owners’ equity, the Group recognises investment
        income and other comprehensive income after making appropriate adjustments to
        align the accounting policies or accounting periods with those of the Group based on
        the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition.
        Unrealised profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its
        associates or joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the
        associates or joint ventures. Unrealised losses resulting from transactions between
        the Group and its associates or joint ventures are eliminated in the same way as
        unrealised gains but only to the extent that there is no impairment.




                                                34
                                                                     Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited
                                                          Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023




            - The Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses of the investee after
              the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment and any long-term interest
              that in substance forms part of the Group’s net investment in the associate is
              reduced to zero, except to the extent that the Group has an obligation to assume
              additional losses. If the joint venture or the associate subsequently reports net
              profits, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share
              of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised.

            For the impairment of the investments in joint ventures and associates, refer to Note
            III.21.

(3)   Criteria for determining the existence of joint control over an investee

      Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists
      only when decisions about the relevant activities (activities with significant impact on the
      returns of the arrangement) require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

      The following factors are usually considered when assessing whether the Group can
      exercise joint control over an investee:

      - Whether no single participant party is in a position to control the investee’s related
        activities unilaterally;
      - Whether strategic decisions relating to the investee’s related activities require the
        unanimous consent of all participant parties that sharing of control.

      Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions
      of an investee but does not have control or joint control over those policies.

13    Investment properties

      Investment properties are properties held either to earn rental income or for capital
      appreciation or for both. Investment properties are accounted for using the cost model and
      stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation, amortisation and
      impairment losses, and adopts a depreciation or amortisation policy for the investment
      property which is consistent with that for buildings or land use rights, unless the investment
      property is classified as held for sale (see Note III.31). For the impairment of the investment
      properties, refer to Note III.21.

14    Fixed assets

(1)   Recognition of fixed assets

      Fixed assets represent the tangible assets held by the Group for use in production of goods,
      supply of services, for rental or for administrative purposes with useful lives over one
      accounting year.

      The cost of a purchased fixed asset comprises the purchase price, related taxes, and any
      directly attributable expenditure for bringing the asset to working condition for its intended
      use. The cost of self-constructed assets is measured in accordance with the policy set out in
      Note III.15.

      Where the parts of an item of fixed assets have different useful lives or provide benefits to
      the Group in a different pattern, thus necessitating use of different depreciation rates or
      methods, each part is recognised as a separate fixed asset.

      Any subsequent costs including the cost of replacing part of an item of fixed assets are
      recognised as assets when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the
      costs will flow to the Group, and the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.
      The costs of the day-to-day maintenance of fixed assets are recognised in profit or loss as
      incurred.

      Fixed assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation and
      impairment losses.

(2)   Depreciation of fixed assets

      The cost of a fixed asset, less its estimated residual value and accumulated impairment
      losses, is depreciated using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life, unless the
      fixed asset is classified as held for sale (see Note III.31).

      The estimated useful lives, residual value rates and depreciation rates of each class of fixed
      assets are as follows:

                                          Estimated useful Residual value rate             Depreciation rate
       Class
                                                life (years)               (%)                          (%)
       Plant and buildings                    20 - 40 years            0 - 5%                  2.4% - 5.0%
       Machinery equipment                     5 - 30 years            0 - 5%                 3.2% - 20.0%

      Useful lives, estimated residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at least at
      each year-end.

(3)   For the impairment of the fixed assets, refer to Note III.21.

(4)   Disposal of fixed assets

      The carrying amount of a fixed asset is derecognised:

      - when the fixed asset is holding for disposal; or
      - when no future economic benefit is expected to be generated from its use or disposal.

     Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of fixed asset are
     determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of
     the item, and are recognised in profit or loss on the date of retirement or disposal.

15   Construction in progress

     The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour, capitalised
     borrowing costs (see Note III.16), and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the
     asset to working condition for its intended use.

     A self-constructed asset is classified as construction in progress and transferred to fixed
     asset when it is ready for its intended use. No depreciation is provided against construction
     in progress.

     Criteria and timing for the transfer to fixed assets:

16   Borrowing costs

     Borrowing costs incurred directly attributable to the acquisition, and construction or
     production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. Other
     borrowing costs are recognised as financial expenses when incurred.

     During the capitalisation period, the amount of interest (including amortisation of any
     discount or premium on borrowing) to be capitalised in each accounting period is determined
     as follows:

     - Where funds are borrowed specifically for the acquisition and construction or production of
       a qualifying asset, the amount of interest to be capitalised is the interest expense
       calculated using effective interest rates during the period less any interest income earned
       from depositing the borrowed funds or any investment income on the temporary
       investment of those funds before being used on the asset.

     - To the extent that the Group borrows funds generally and uses them for the acquisition
       and construction or production of a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible
       for capitalisation is determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the weighted average of
       the excess amounts of cumulative expenditure on the asset over the above amounts of
       specific borrowings. The capitalisation rate is the weighted average of the interest rates
       applicable to the general-purpose borrowings.

     The effective interest rate is determined as the rate that exactly discounts estimated future
     cash flow through the expected life of the borrowing or, when appropriate, a shorter period to
     the initially recognised amount of the borrowings.

     During the capitalisation period, exchange differences related to the principal and interest on
     a specific-purpose borrowing denominated in foreign currency are capitalised as part of the
     cost of the qualifying asset. The exchange differences related to the principal and interest on
     foreign currency borrowings other than a specific-purpose borrowing are recognised as a
     financial expense when incurred.

     The capitalisation period is the period from the date of commencement of capitalisation of
     borrowing costs to the date of cessation of capitalisation, excluding any period over which
     capitalisation is suspended. Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when expenditure
     for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities of
     acquisition, construction or production that are necessary to prepare the asset for its
     intended use are in progress, and ceases when the assets become ready for their intended
     use. Capitalisation of borrowing costs should cease when the qualifying asset being
     constructed or produced has reached its expected usable or saleable condition.
     Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended when the acquisition, construction or
     production activities are interrupted abnormally for a period of more than three months.

17   Biological assets

     The Group’s biological assets are bearer biological assets.

     Bearer biological assets are those that are held for the purposes of producing agricultural
     produce, rendering of services or rental. Bearer biological assets in the Group are vines.
     Bearer biological assets are initially measured at cost. The cost of self-grown or self-bred
     bearer biological assets represents the necessary directly attributable expenditure incurred
     before satisfying the expected production and operating purpose, including capitalised
     borrowing costs.

     Bearer biological assets, after reaching the expected production and operating purpose, are
     depreciated using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life. The estimated
     useful lives, estimated net residual value rates and depreciation rates of bearer biological
     assets are as follows:

                                         Estimated useful          Estimated net          Depreciation rate

     The Group evaluates the useful life and expected net salvage value by considering the
     normal producing life of the bearer biological assets.

     Useful lives, estimated residual values and depreciation methods of bearer biological assets
     are reviewed at least at each year-end. Any changes should be treated as changes in
     accounting estimates.

     For a bearer biological asset that has been sold, damaged, dead or destroyed, any
     difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset should be
     recognised in profit or loss for the period in which it arises.

18   Intangible assets

     Useful life and amortisation methods

     Intangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated amortization
     (where the estimated useful life is finite) and impairment losses (see Note III.21). For an
     intangible asset with finite useful life, its cost estimated less residual value and accumulated
     impairment losses is amortised on the straight-line method over its estimated useful life,
     unless the intangible asset is classified as held for sale.

     The estimated useful lives, basis for determination and amortisation methods of intangible
     assets are as follows:

                                       Amortisation                                             Amortisation

     An intangible asset is regarded as having an indefinite useful life and is not amortised when
     there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate
     economic benefits for the Group. At the balance sheet date, the Group had intangible assets
     with infinite useful lives including the land use rights and trademarks. Land use rights with
     infinite useful lives are permanent land use rights with permanent ownership held by the
     Group under the relevant Chile and Australian laws arising from the Group’s acquisition of
     Via Indómita, S.A., Via Dos Andes, S.A., and Bodegas Santa Alicia SPA. (collectively
     referred to as the “Chile Indomita Wine Group”), and the acquisition of Kilikanoon Estate Pty
     Ltd. (the “Australia Kilikanoon Estate”), therefore there was no amortisation. The right to use
     trademark refers to the trademark held by the Group arising from the acquisition of the Chile
     Indomita Wine Group and the Australia Kilikanoon Estate with infinite useful lives. The
     valuation of trademark was based on the trends in the market and competitive environment,
     product cycle, and managing long-term development strategy. Those basis indicated the
     trademark will provide net cash flows to the Group within an uncertain period. The useful life
     is indefinite as it was hard to predict the period that the trademark would bring economic
     benefits to the Group.

19   Goodwill

     The initial cost of goodwill represents the excess of cost of acquisition over the acquirer’s
     interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree under a business
     combination not involving entities under common control.

     Goodwill is not amortised and is stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated
     impairment losses (see Note III.21). On disposal of an asset group or a set of asset groups,
     any attributable goodwill is written off and included in the calculation of the profit or loss on
     disposal.

20   Long-term deferred expenses

     Long-term deferred expenses are amortised using a straight-line method within the benefit
     period. The respective amortisation periods for such expenses are as follows:

      Item                                                                             Amortisation period

21   Impairment of assets other than inventories and financial assets

     The carrying amounts of the following assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date based
     on internal and external sources of information to determine whether there is any indication
     of impairment:

     -   fixed assets
     -   construction in progress
     -   right-of-use assets
     -   intangible assets
     -   bearer biological assets
     -   investment properties measured using a cost model
     -   long-term equity investments
     -   goodwill
     -   long-term deferred expenses, etc.

     If any indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. In addition, the
     Group estimates the recoverable amounts of goodwill and intangible assets with infinite
     useful lives at each year-end, irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment.
     Goodwill is allocated to each asset group, or set of asset groups, that is expected to benefit
     from the synergies of the combination for the purpose of impairment testing.

     The recoverable amount of an asset (or asset group, set of asset groups) is the higher of its
     fair value (see Note III.22) less costs to sell and its present value of expected future cash
     flows.

     An asset group is composed of assets directly related to cash-generation and is the smallest
     identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the
     cash inflows from other assets or asset groups.

     The present value of expected future cash flows of an asset is determined by discounting the
     future cash flows, estimated to be derived from continuing use of the asset and from its
     ultimate disposal, to their present value using an appropriate pre-tax discount rate.

     An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss when the recoverable amount of an asset is
     less than its carrying amount. A provision for impairment of the asset is recognised
     accordingly. Impairment losses related to an asset group or a set of asset groups are allocated
     first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the asset group or set of asset
     groups, and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the asset group or set
     of asset groups on a pro rata basis. However, such allocation would not reduce the carrying
     amount of an asset below the highest of its fair value less costs to sell (if measurable), its
     present value of expected future cash flows (if determinable) and zero.

     Once an impairment loss is recognised, it is not reversed in a subsequent period.

22    Fair value measurement

      Unless otherwise specified, the Group measures fair value as follows:

      Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in
      an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

      When measuring fair value, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the particular
      asset or liability (including the condition and location of the asset and restrictions, if any, on
      the sale or use of the asset) that market participants would consider when pricing the asset
      or liability at the measurement date, and uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in
      the circumstances and for which sufficient data and other information are available to
      measure fair value. Valuation techniques mainly include the market approach, the income
      approach and the cost approach.

23    Provisions

      A provision is recognised for an obligation related to a contingency if the Group has a
      present obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of
      economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.

      A provision is initially measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the
      related present obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions
      are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows. Factors pertaining to a
      contingency such as the risks, uncertainties and time value of money are taken into account
      as a whole in reaching the best estimate. Where there is a continuous range of possible
      outcomes for the expenditure required, and each possible outcome in that range is as likely
      as any other, the best estimate is the mid-point of that range. In other cases, the best
      estimate is determined as follows:

      - Where the contingency involves a single item, the best estimate is the most likely
        outcome.
      - Where the contingency involves a large population of items, the best estimate is
        determined by weighting all possible outcomes by their associated probabilities.

      The Group reviews the carrying amounts of provisions at the balance sheet date and adjusts
      their carrying amounts to the current best estimates.

24    Share-based payments

(2)   Accounting treatment of share-based payments

      - Equity-settled share-based payments

         Where the Group uses shares or other equity instruments as consideration for services
         received from employees, the payment is measured at the fair value of the equity
         instruments granted to employees at the grant date. If the equity instruments granted to
         employees vest immediately, the fair value of the equity instruments granted is fully
         recognised as costs or expenses on the grant date, with a corresponding increase in
         capital reserve. If the equity instruments granted do not vest until the completion of
         services for a period, or until the achievement of a specified performance condition, the
         Group recognises an amount at each balance sheet date during the vesting period based
         on the best estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest according to
         newly obtained subsequent information regarding changes in the number of employees
         expected to vest the equity instruments. The Group measures the services received at the
         grant-date fair value of the equity instruments and recognises the costs or expenses as
         the services are received, with a corresponding increase in capital reserve.

         When the Group receives services but has no obligation to settle the transaction because
         the relevant equity instruments are issued by the Company’s ultimate parent or its
         subsidiaries outside the Group, the Group also classifies the transaction as equity-settled.

25    Revenue recognition

      Revenue is the gross inflow of economic benefits arising in the course of the Group’s
      ordinary activities when the inflows result in increase in shareholders’ equity, other than
      increase relating to contributions from shareholders.

      Revenue is recognised when the Group satisfies the performance obligation in the contract
      by transferring the control over relevant goods or services to the customers.

      Where a contract has two or more performance obligations, the Group determines the stand-
      alone selling price at contract inception of the distinct good or service underlying each
      performance obligation in the contract and allocates the transaction price in proportion to
      those stand-alone selling prices. The Group recognises as revenue the amount of the
      transaction price that is allocated to each performance obligation. The stand-alone selling
      price is the price at which the Group would sell a promised good or service separately to a
      customer. If a stand-alone selling price is not directly observable, the Group considers all
      information that is reasonably available to the entity, maximises the use of observable inputs
      to estimate the stand-alone selling price.

      For the contract with a warranty, the Group analyses the nature of the warranty provided, if
      the warranty provides the customer with a distinct service in addition to the assurance that
      the product complies with agreed-upon specifications, the Group recognises for the promised
      warranty as a performance obligation. Otherwise, the Group accounts for the warranty in
      accordance with the requirements of CAS No.13 – Contingencies.

                                                               Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited

The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be
entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding
amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Group recognises the transaction price only
to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative
revenue recognised will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable
consideration is subsequently resolved. Where the contract contains a significant financing
component, the Group recognises the transaction price at an amount that reflects the price
that a customer would have paid for the promised goods or services if the customer had paid
cash for those goods or services when (or as) they transfer to the customer. The difference
between the amount of promised consideration and the cash selling price is amortised using
an effective interest method over the contract term. The Group does not adjust the
consideration for any effects of a significant financing component if it expects, at contract
inception, that the period between when the Group transfers a promised good or service to a
customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less.

The Group satisfies a performance obligation over time if one of the following criteria is met;
or otherwise, a performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time:

- the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group’s
  performance as the Group performs;
- the customer can control the asset created or enhanced during the Group’s performance;
  or
- the Group’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to it and the
  Group has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

For performance obligation satisfied over time, the Group recognises revenue over time by
measuring the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. When
the outcome of that performance obligation cannot be measured reasonably, but the Group
expects to recover the costs incurred in satisfying the performance obligation, the Group
recognises revenue only to the extent of the costs incurred until such time that it can
reasonably measure the outcome of the performance obligation.

For performance obligation satisfied at a point in time, the Group recognises revenue at the
point in time at which the customer obtains control of relevant goods or services. To
determine whether a customer has obtained control of goods or services, the Group
considers the following indicators:

- the Group has a present right to payment for the goods or services;
- the Group has transferred physical possession of the goods to the customer;
- the Group has transferred the legal title of the goods or the significant risks and rewards of
  ownership of the goods to the customer; and
- the customer has accepted the goods or services.

For the sale of a product with a right of return, the Group recognises revenue when the
Group obtains control of that product, in the amount of consideration to which the Group
expects to be entitled in exchange for the product transferred (i.e. excluding the amount of
which expected to be returned), and recognises a refund liability for the products expected to
be returned. Meanwhile, an asset is recognised in the amount of carrying amount of the
product expected to be returned less any expected costs to recover those products (including
potential decreases in the value of returned products), and carry forward to cost in the
amount of carrying amount of the transferred products less the above costs. At the end of
each reporting period, the Group updates its assessment of future sales return. If there is
any change, it is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate.

                                                                     Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited

     A contract asset is the Group’s right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that it
     has transferred to a customer when that right is conditional on something other than the
     passage of time. The Group recognises loss allowances for expected credit loss on contract
     assets (see Note III.10(6)). Accounts receivable is the Group’s right to consideration that is
     unconditional (only the passage of time is required). A contract liability is the Group’s
     obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received
     consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer.

     The following is the description of accounting policies regarding revenue from the Group’s
     principal activities:

     The Group’s sales revenue is mainly derived from dealer sales. Revenue is recognised
     when the Group transfers control of the related products to the customer. Based on the
     business contract, the Group recognised the sales revenue of these transfers when the
     product is confirmed and signed for acceptance by the customers.

26   Contract costs

     Contract costs are either the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer or the
     costs to fulfil a contract with a customer.

     Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that the Group incurs to obtain a
     contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained
     e.g. an incremental sales commission. The Group recognises as an asset the incremental
     costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if it expects to recover those costs. Other costs
     of obtaining a contract are expensed when incurred.

     If the costs to fulfil a contract with a customer are not within the scope of inventories or other
     accounting standards, the Group recognises an asset from the costs incurred to fulfil a
     contract only if those costs meet all of the following criteria:

     - the costs relate directly to an existing contract or to a specifically identifiable anticipated
       contract, including direct labour, direct materials, allocations of overheads (or similar
       costs), costs that are explicitly chargeable to the customer and other costs that are
       incurred only because the Group entered into the contract
     - the costs generate or enhance resources of the Group that will be used in satisfying (or in
       continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future; and
     - the costs are expected to be recovered.

     Assets recognised for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and assets recognised for
     the costs to fulfil a contract (the “assets related to contract costs”) are amortised on a
     systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer to the customer of the goods or services
     to which the assets relate and recognised in profit or loss for the current period. The Group
     recognises the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the
     amortisation period of the asset that the entity otherwise would have recognised is one year
     or less.

     The Group recognises an impairment loss in profit or loss to the extent that the carrying
     amount of an asset related to contract costs exceeds:

     - remaining amount of consideration that the Group expects to receive in exchange for the
       goods or services to which the asset relates; less
     - the costs that relate directly to providing those goods or services that have not yet been
       recognised as expenses.

27    Employee benefits

(1)   Short-term employee benefits

      Employee wages or salaries, bonuses, social security contributions such as medical
      insurance, work injury insurance, maternity insurance and housing fund, measured at the
      amount incurred or accured at the applicable benchmarks and rates, are recognised as a
      liability as the employee provides services, with a corresponding charge to profit or loss or
      included in the cost of assets where appropriate.

(2)   Post-employment benefits – defined contribution plans

      Pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations of the People’s Republic of China, the Group
      participated in a defined contribution basic pension insurance plan in the social insurance
      system established and managed by government organisations. The Group makes
      contributions to basic pension insurance plans based on the applicable benchmarks and
      rates stipulated by the government. Basic pension insurance contributions payable are
      recognised as a liability as the employee provides services, with a corresponding charge to
      profit or loss or included in the cost of assets where appropriate.

(3)   Termination benefits

      When the Group terminates the employment with employees before the employment
      contracts expire, or provides compensation under an offer to encourage employees to accept
      voluntary redundancy, a provision is recognised with a corresponding expense in profit or
      loss at the earlier of the following dates:

      - When the Group cannot unilaterally withdraw the offer of termination benefits because of
        an employee termination plan or a curtailment proposal;
      - When the Group has a formal detailed restructuring plan involving the payment of
        termination benefits and has raised a valid expectation in those affected that it will carry
        out the restructuring by starting to implement that plan or announcing its main features to
        those affected by it.

28    Government grants

      Government grants are non-reciprocal transfers of monetary or non-monetary assets from
      the government to the Group except for capital contributions from the government in the
      capacity as an investor in the Group.

      A government grant is recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be
      received and that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to the grant.

      If a government grant is in the form of a transfer of a monetary asset, it is measured at the
      amount received or receivable. If a government grant is in the form of a transfer of a non-
      monetary asset, it is measured at fair value.

                                                                     Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited

     Government grants related to assets are grants whose primary condition is that the Group
     qualifying for them should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire long-term assets.
     Government grants related to income are grants other than those related to assets. A
     government grant related to an asset is recognised as deferred income and amortised over
     the useful life of the related asset on a reasonable and systematic manner as other income
     or non-operating income. A grant that compensates the Group for expenses or losses to be
     incurred in the future is recognised as deferred income, and included in other income or non-
     operating income in the periods in which the expenses or losses are recognised. Or included
     in other income or non-operating income directly.

29   Income tax

     Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that they
     relate to a business combination or items recognised directly in equity (including other
     comprehensive income).

     Current tax is the expected tax payable calculated at the applicable tax rate on taxable
     income for the year, plus any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

     At the balance sheet date, current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if the Group has a
     legally enforceable right to set them off and also intends either to settle on a net basis or to
     realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

     Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities arise from deductible and taxable temporary
     differences respectively, being the differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
     liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases, which include deductible losses
     and tax credits carried forward to subsequent periods. Deferred tax assets are recognised to
     the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which
     deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

     Deferred tax is not recognised for temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of
     assets or liabilities in a single transaction that is not a business combination, affects neither
     accounting profit nor taxable profit (or deductible loss) and does not give rise to equal taxable
     and deductible temporary differences. Deferred tax is also not recognised for taxable
     temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of goodwill.

     At the balance sheet date, deferred tax is measured based on the tax consequences that
     would follow from the expected manner of recovery or settlement of the carrying amounts of
     the assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted at the balance sheet date that are expected
     to be applied in the period when the asset is recovered or the liability is settled.

     The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at each balance sheet date, and is
     reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefits will be utilised.
     Such reductions are reversed to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient taxable
     profits will be available.

     At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if all of
     the following conditions are met:

     - the taxable entity has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and current
       tax assets;
     - they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on either:

      - the same taxable entity; or
      - different taxable entities which intend either to settle the current tax liabilities and current
        tax assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously,
        in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax
        assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

30    Leases

      A contract is lease if the lessor conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset to
      lessee for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

      At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A
      contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an
      identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

      To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the
      Group assesses whether:

      - the contract involves the use of an identified asset. An identified asset may be specified
        explicitly or implicitly speicied in a contrat and should be physically distinct, or capacity
        portion or other portion of an asset that is not physically distinct but it represents
        substantially all of the capacity of the asset and thereby provides the customer with the
        right to obtain substantially all of the ecomonic benefits from the use of the asset. If the
        supplier has a substantive substitution right throughout the period of use, then the asset is
        not identified;
      - the lessee has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the
        asset throughout the period of use;
      - the lessee has the right to direct the use of the asset.

      For a contract that contains more separate lease componets, the lessee and the lessor
      separate lease components and account for each lease component as a lease separately.
      For a contract that contains lease and non-lease components, the lessee and the lessor
      separate lease components from non-lease components. For a contract that contains lease
      and non-lease components, the lessee allocates the consideration in the contract to each
      lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and
      the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components. The lessor allocates the
      consideration in the contract in accordance with the accounting policy in Note III.25.

(1)   As a lessee

      The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement
      date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount
      of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date (less
      any lease incentives received), any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to
      dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the site on which it is located or
      restore the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the
      lease.




                                                      48
                                                                     Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited
                                                          Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023




      The right-of-use asset is depreciated using the straight-line method. If the lessee is
      reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option by the end of the lease term, the right-of-
      use asset is depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the underlying asset. Otherwise,
      the right-of-use asset is depreciated from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of
      the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. Impairment losses of
      right-of-use assets are accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy described in
      Note III.21.

      The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not
      paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if
      that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate.

      A constant periodic rate is used to calculate the interest on the lease liability in each period
      during the lease term with a corresponding charge to profit or loss or included in the cost of
      assets where appropriate. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of the
      lease liability is charged to profit or loss or included in the cost of assets where appropriate
      as incurred.

      Under the following circumstances after the commencement date, the Group remeasures
      lease liabilities based on the present value of revised lease payments:

      - there is a change in the amounts expected to be payable under a residual value
        guarantee;
      - there is a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate
        used to determine those payments;
      - there is a change in the assessment of whether the Group will exercise a purchase,
        extension or termination option, or there is a change in the exercise of the extension or
        termination option.

      When the lease liability is remeasured, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying
      amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the
      right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

      The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term
      leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The
      Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases in profit or loss or as the
      cost of the assets where appropriate using the straight-line method over the lease term.

(2)   As a lessor

      The Group determines at lease inception whether each lease is a finance lease or an
      operating lease. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the
      risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset irrespective of whether the
      legal title to the asset is eventually transferred. An operating lease is a lease other than a
      finance lease.

      When the Group is a sub-lessor, it assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with
      reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not with reference to the
      underlying asset. If a head lease is a short-term lease to which the Group applies practical
      expedient described above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease.

                                                                     Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited
                                                          Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023




     Under a finance lease, at the commencement date, the Group recognises the finance lease
     receivable and derecognises the finance lease asset. The finance lease receivable is initially
     measured at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease. The net investment in the
     lease is measured at the aggregate of the unguaranteed residual value and the present
     value of the lease receivable that are not received at the commencement date, discounted
     using the interest rate implicit in the lease.

     The Group recognises finance income over the lease term, based on a pattern reflecting a
     constant periodic rate of return. The derecognition and impairment of the finance lease
     receivable are recognised in accordance with the accounting policy in Note III.10. Variable
     lease payments not included in the measurement of net investment in the lease are
     recognised as income as they are earned.

     Lease receipts from operating leases is recognised as income using the straight-line method
     over the lease term. The initial direct costs incurred in respect of the operating lease are
     initially capitalised and subsequently amortised in profit or loss over the lease term on the
     same basis as the lease income. Variable lease payments not included in lease receipts are
     recognised as income as they are earned.

31   Assets held for sale

     The Group classified a non-current asset or disposal group as held for sale when the
     carrying amount of a non-current asset or disposal group will be recovered through a sale
     transaction rather than through continuing use.

     A disposal group refers to a group of assets to be disposed of, by sale or otherwise, together
     as a whole in a single transaction and liabilities directly associated with those assets that will
     be transferred in the transaction.

     A non-current asset or disposal group is classified as held for sale when all the following
     criteria are met:

     - According to the customary practices of selling such asset or disposal group in similar
       transactions, the non-current asset or disposal group must be available for immediate sale
       in their present condition subject to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such
       assets or disposal groups;
     - Its sale is highly probable, that is, the Group has made a resolution on a sale plan and has
       obtained a firm purchase commitment. The sale is to be completed within one year.

     Non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale are stated at the lower of carrying
     amount and fair value (see Note III.22) less costs to sell (except financial assets (see Note
     III.10), deferred tax assets (see Note III.29) and investment properties subsequent measured
     at fair value (see Note III. 13) initially and subsequently. Any excess of the carrying amount
     over the fair value (see Note III.22) less costs to sell is recognised as an impairment loss in
     profit or loss.

32   Profit distributions

     Dividends or profit distributions proposed in the profit appropriation plan, which will be
     approved after the balance sheet date, are not recognised as a liability at the balance sheet
     date but are disclosed in the notes separately.

33   Related parties

     If a party has the power to control, jointly control or exercise significant influence over
     another party, or vice versa, or where two or more parties are subject to common control or
     joint control from another party, they are considered to be related parties. Related parties
     may be individuals or enterprises. Enterprises with which the Company is under common
     control only from the State and that have no other related party relationships are not
     regarded as related parties.

     In addition to the related parties stated above, the Company determines related parties
     based on the disclosure requirements of Administrative Procedures on the Information
     Disclosures of Listed Companies issued by the CSRC.

34   Segment reporting

     The Group is principally engaged in the production and sales of wine, brandy, and sparkling
     wine in China, France, Spain, Chile and Australia. In accordance with the Group’s internal
     organisation structure, management requirements and internal reporting system, the Group’s
     operation is divided into five parts: China, Spain, France, Chile and Australia. The
     management periodically evaluates segment results, in order to allocate resources and
     evaluate performances. In 2023, over 86% of revenue, more than 96% of profit and over
     91% of non-current assets derived from China/are located in China. Therefore the Group
     does not need to disclose additional segment report information.

35   Significant accounting estimates and judgements

     The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of
     assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The
     management estimates as well as underlying assumptions and uncertainties involved are
     reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the
     period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

     Significant accounting estimates see Notes V.3 7 11 and 16.

36   Changes in significant accounting policies

     In 2023, the Group has adopted the following newly revised accounting standards and
     implementation guidance and illustrative examples issued by the MOF:

     The accounting treatment of deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single
     transaction excluded from the scope of the initial recognition exemption” in CAS Bulletin
     No.16 (Caikuai [2022] No.31) (“CAS Bulletin No.16”)

     According to the provisions, for taxable and deductible temporary differences arising from the
     initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a single transaction that is not a business
     combination, affects neither accounting profits nor taxable profit (or deductible losses) and
     gives rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences, the Group recognises the
     corresponding deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets respectively in accordance with
     relevant provisions in CAS 18 - Income Tax when such transactions occur, instead of
     recognising deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets based on the net amount of taxable
     and deductible temporary differences. The adoption of the above requirements and guidance
     does not have a significant effect on the financial position and financial performance of the
     Group.

(3)   Accounts receivable by provisioning method

      At all times the Group measures the impairment loss for accounts receivable at an amount
      equal to lifetime ECLs, and the ECLs are based on the number of overdue days and the loss
      given default. According to the historical experience of the Group, there are no significant
      differences in the losses of different customer groups. Therefore, different customer groups
      are not further distinguished when calculating impairment loss based on the overdue
      information.

      notes are used for payment to suppliers and constructions. The Group believes that due to
      good reputation of bank, the risk of notes not accepting by bank on maturity is very low,
      therefore derecognise the note receivables endorsed. If the bank is unable to pay the notes
      on maturity, according to the relevant laws and regulations of China, the Group would
      undertake limited liability for the notes.

      Notes:
      Pursuant to a royalty agreement dated 18 May 1997, starting from 18 September 1997, the
      Group may use certain trademarks of Changyu Group Company, which have been registered
      with the PRC Trademark Office. An annual royalty fee at 2% of the Group’s annual sales is
      payable to Changyu Group. The license is effective until the expiry of the registration of the
      trademarks.

      According to the above royalty agreement, Changyu Group collected a total of
      RMB576,507,809 for royalty from 2013 to 2019, of which 51% was used to promote
      trademarks such as Changyu and the product of this contract, totalling RMB294,018,093.
      The amount is used for promotion of Changyu and other trademarks and the products of this
      contract, totalling RMB62,250,368, the difference is RMB231,768,615 (including tax).

      On 18 May 2019, the general meeting of shareholders approved the proposal of the
      amendment to the royalty agreement. Article 6.1 of the royalty agreement with Changyu
      Group was amended to: During the validity period of this contract, the Group pays Changyu
      Group royalty on an annual basis. The royalty is calculated based on 0.98% of the sales
      volume of the Group ‘s contract products using this trademark. Article 6.3 is amended to:
      The royalty paid to the Changyu Group by the Group shall not be used to promote this
      trademark and the contract products.

      Changyu Group promised to offset the difference of RMB231,768,615 above with the royalty
      for four years, i.e. from 2019 to 2022.If it is not sufficient for deduction, the rest will be repaid
      in a one-off manner in 2023. If there is surplus, the surplus part of the royalty will be
      charged from the year when the surplus occurs.

      The Group recovered the balance of Changyu Group’s trademark royalties in December 2023.

      subsidiary and long-term average growth rates of relevant industries. Other relevant key
      assumption is budget gross profit margin, which is determined based on the historical
      performance of each subsidiary and its expectations for market development.

           resolutions in the Group’s 2022 General Meetings of Shareholders held on 26 May

           Restricted Share Incentive Plan and the Proposal on the Granting of Restricted
           Shares to Incentive Objects under the 2023 Restricted Share Incentive Plan were

           2023 (hereinafter referred to as the “Restricted Share Incentive Plan”, see Note XIII

           incentive objects at a grant price of RMB15.24 per share on 26 June 2023 (the grant
           date). A total of 203 incentive objects of the Group actually subscribed for 6,785,559

           the Company’s registered capital by RMB6,785,559, increased the capital reserve by
           RMB96,626,360 and recognised the repurchase obligation on restricted shares of

     (1)   During the reporting period, the Group’s issuance of restricted shares in connection
           with the implementation of the Restricted Share Plan resulted in an increase in share
           premium of RMB96,626,360, see Note V.32 for details.

     (2)   During the reporting period, the Group’s recognition of amortisation expenses in
           connection with the implementation of the Restricted Share Plan resulted in an
           increase in capital reserve of RMB30,735,755.

           As a result of the Company’s acquisition of non-controlling interests in Liaoning
           Changyu Ice Wine Chateau Co., Ltd., the difference between the long-term equity
           investment acquired and the share of net assets continuously calculated since the
           acquisition date by the subsidiary based on the proportion of newly increased
           shareholding was recognised in capital reserve, resulting in a decrease in capital
           reserve by RMB1,244,168, see Note VIII.2 for details.

     In accordance with the Company Law and the Articles of Association Company, the Company
     appropriated 10% of its net profit to statutory surplus reserve. The appropriation to the
     statutory surplus reserve may be ceased when the accumulated appropriation reaches over
     50% of the registered capital of the Company. The Company does not appropriate net profit
     to the surplus reserve in 2023 as surplus reserve of the Company is above 50% of the
     registered capital.

     The Company can appropriate discretionary surplus reserve after appropriation of the
     statutory surplus reserve. Discretionary surplus reserve can be utilised to offset the deficit or
     increase the share capital after approval.

IX.   Risk related to financial instruments

      The Group has exposure to the following main risks from its use of financial instruments in
      the normal course of the Group’s operations:

      -   Credit risk
      -   Liquidity risk
      -   Interest rate risk
      -   Foreign currency risk

      The following mainly presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above
      risks and their sources, their changes during the year, and the Group’s objectives, policies
      and processes for measuring and managing risks, and their changes during the year.

      The Group aims to seek appropriate balance between the risks and benefits from its use of
      financial instruments and to mitigate the adverse effects that the risks of financial instruments
      have on the Group’s financial performance. Based on such objectives, the Group’s risk
      management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to
      set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk
      management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
      conditions and the Group’s activities.

1     Credit risk

      Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the
      other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Group’s credit risk is primarily
      attributable to cash at bank, receivables, debt investments and derivative financial
      instruments entered into for hedging purposes. Exposure to these credit risks are monitored
      by management on an ongoing basis.

      The cash at bank of the Group is mainly held with well-known financial institutions.
      Management does not foresee any significant credit risks from these deposits and does not
      expect that these financial institutions may default and cause losses to the Group.

      As at 31 December 2023, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a
      financial loss to the Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties.

      In order to minimise the credit risk, the Group has adopted a policy to ensure that all sales
      customers have good credit records. According to the policy of the Group, credit review is
      required for clients who require credit transactions. In addition, the Group continuously
      monitors the balance of account receivable to ensure there’s no exposure to significant bad
      debt risks. For transactions that are not denominated in the functional currency of the
      relevant operating unit, the Group does not offer credit terms without the specific approval of
      the Department of Credit Control in the Group. In addition, the Group reviews the
      recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at each balance sheet date to ensure that
      adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the
      management of the Group considers that the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.

                                                                                        Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited
                                                                             Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023




    Since the Group trades only with recognised and creditworthy third parties, there is no
    requirement for collateral. Concentrations of credit risk are managed by
    customer/counterparty, by geographical region and by industry sector. As at 31 December
    2023, 49.0% of the Group trade receivables are due from top five customers (31 December
    2022: 48.8%). There is no collateral or other credit enhancement on the balance of the trade
    receivables of the Group.

2   Liquidity risk

    Liquidity risk is the risk that an enterprise will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations that
    are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company and its individual
    subsidiaries are responsible for their own cash management, including short-term investment
    of cash surpluses and the raising of loans to cover expected cash demands (subject to
    approval by the Company’s board when the borrowings exceed certain predetermined
    levels). The Group’s policy is to regularly monitor its liquidity requirements and its
    compliance with lending covenants, to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash,
    readily realisable marketable securities and adequate committed lines of funding from major
    financial institutions to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term.

    The following tables set out the remaining contractual maturities at the balance sheet date of
    the Group’s financial liabilities, which are based on contractual undiscounted cash flows
    (including interest payments computed using contractual rates or, if floating, based on rates
    current at the balance sheet date) and the earliest date the Group can be required to pay:

3     Interest rate risk

      Interest-bearing financial instruments at variable rates and at fixed rates expose the Group to
      cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest risk, respectively. The Group determines

      on the current market conditions and performs regular reviews and monitoring to achieve an
      appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate exposure.

(2)   Sensitivity analysis

      Management of the Group believes interest rate risk on bank deposit is not significant,
      therefore does not disclose sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk.




                                                             100
                                                                      Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Company Limited
                                                           Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023




      As at 31 December 2023, based on assumptions above, it is estimated that a general
      increase of 50 basis points in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, would
      decrease the Group’s equity by RMB 1,453,823 (2022: RMB1,055,235), and net profit by
      RMB 1,453,823 (2022: RMB1,055,235).

      The sensitivity analysis above indicates the instantaneous change in the net profit and equity
      that would arise assuming that the change in interest rates had occurred at the balance
      sheet date and had been applied to re-measure those financial instruments held by the
      Group which expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk at the balance sheet date. In
      respect of the exposure to cash flow interest rate risk arising from floating rate non-derivative
      instruments held by the Group at the balance sheet date, the impact on the net profit and
      equity is estimated as an annualised impact on interest expense or income of such a change
      in interest rates.

4     Foreign currency risk

      In respect of cash at bank and on hand, accounts receivable and payable, short-term loans
      denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency, the Group ensures that
      its net exposure is kept to an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot
      rates when necessary to address short-term imbalances.

(1)   As at 31 December, the Group’s exposure to main currency risk arising from recognised
      assets or liabilities denominated in foreign currencies is presented in the following tables.
      For presentation purposes, the amounts of the exposure are shown in Renminbi, translated
      using the spot rate at the balance sheet date. Differences resulting from the translation of
      the financial statements denominated in foreign currency are excluded.

(3)   Sensitivity analysis

      Assuming all other risk variables remained constant, a 5% strengthening of the Renminbi
      against the US dollar and Euro dollar at 31 December would have impact on the Group’s
      equity and net profit by the amount shown below. whose effect is in Renminbi and translated
      using the spot rate at the year-end date:

                                                                               Equity                 Net profit

      A 5% weakening of the Renminbi against the US dollar and Euro dollar at 31 December
      would have had the equal but opposite effect to the amounts shown above, on the basis that
      all other variables remained constant.

XII.   Capital management

       The Group’s primary objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue
       as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders, by pricing
       products and services commensurately with the level of risk and by securing access to
       finance at a reasonable cost.

       The Group’s capital structure is regularly reviewed and managed to achieve an optimal
       structure and return for shareholders. Factors for the Group’s consideration include: its
       future funding requirements, capital efficiency, actual and expected profitability, expected
       cash flows, and expected capital expenditure. Adjustments are made to the capital structure
       in light of changes in economic conditions affecting the Group.

       Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital
       requirements.

(2)     Equity-settled share-based payments

        Pursuant to the Proposal on the Company’s 2023 Restricted Share Incentive Plan (Draft) and
        Relevant Summary and the Proposal on the Request for the Authorisation to the Board of
        Directors by the General Meetings of Shareholders to Handle Matters related to the
        Company’s 2023 Restricted Share Incentive Plan passed by resolutions in the Group’s 2022
        General Meetings of Shareholders held on 26 May 2023 as well as the Proposal on the
        Adjustments to Matters related to 2023 Restricted Share Incentive Plan and the Proposal on
        the Granting of Restricted Shares to Incentive Objects under the 2023 Restricted Share
        Incentive Plan reviewed and passed in the 2023 first extraordinary Board meeting held on 26
        June 2023, the Group determined to grant 6,850,000 restricted shares to 204 incentive
        objects at a grant price of RMB15.24 per share on 26 June 2023 (the grant date). A total of
        203 incentive objects of the Group actually subscribed for 6,785,559 restricted shares at a
        grant price of RMB15.24 per share. The transaction increased the Company’s registered
        capital by RMB6,785,559, increased the capital reserve by RMB96,626,360.

        All restricted shares granted to incentive objects are subject to different restricted sales
        periods, which are respectively 12 months, 24 months and 36 months from the date of
        completion of the grant registration of the restricted shares granted to the incentive objects.
        The restricted shares granted to the incentive objects under the Restricted Share Incentive
        Plan shall not be transferred, pledged as collateral or to repay debts during the restricted
        sales periods. All restricted shares granted to incentive objects will be unlocked in three
        phases after 12 months from the grant date, with the proportion of unlocking in each phase
        being 30%, 30% and 40%, respectively, corresponding to unlocking dates of one year, two
        years and three years from the grant date. The actual unlocked shares shall be linked to the
        performance appraisal for each year.

        When the Company’s performance meets the corresponding criteria, the unlocking proportion
        of the above-mentioned restricted shares is determined based on the business performance
        of the incentive object’s operation and the contribution value of the incentive object. The
        Company will repurchase the locked restricted shares at the granted price of the incentive
        objects if the unlocked criteria stipulated in this plan are not met, and the incentive object
        shall not unlock the restricted shares for the current period.




                                                                   107

       As at 31 December 2023, the total costs of equity-settled share-based payments recognised
       in the consolidate financial statements for the year were RMB30,735,755, and the
       accumulated amount of equity-settled share-based payments recognised in the capital
       reserve for the year amounted to RMB30,735,755.
