Industry in which the Company operates 3.1 Development stage, basic characteristics and main technical barriers of the industry (1) Development stage of the industry As an emerging industry, laser display is at a stage of rapid growth, and its growth drivers mainly come from: 1. technological progress has spawned emerging application fields, and semiconductor laser light source technology has been applied to the automotive optics, AR, and other fields, and the market has great potential for explosion; 2. the laser display industry in which the Company operates is one of the strategic emerging industries receiving the major support from the state for accelerated development. With the support of national and industry policies, more and more domestic enterprises and scientific research institutions enter the upstream and downstream fields of the laser display industry chain, strengthen the industrial chain, actively develop and iterate technology, thus further increasing the localization rate of core components. (2) Basic characteristics of the industry In 2007, the ALPD semiconductor laser light source technology invented by our R&D team created a wholly new semiconductor laser light source. Technically matching with multiple chip and technical routes and being suitable for DLP, LCOS, and LCD technologies, the ALPD semiconductor laser light source technology made a breakthrough in the application of core devices and imaging solutions of laser display in the field of display, thus becoming the mainstream technical route for the laser display industry. In terms of application, in addition to traditional applications such as cinema, large venue, and education, emerging industries such as intelligent cockpit, laser headlight, intelligent networking, AR, and 11 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report AI are booming, and gradually become a new application development focus of the laser display industry, and the overall scale of the industry continues to expand, which is expected to help to broaden the application scenarios of the ALPD semiconductor laser light source technology. (3) Main technical barriers Laser display technologies, as an important direction for the development of the display industry, have the feature of high technical barriers, where the specific barriers include: light source technologies, optical engine and imaging devices, signal processing circuits, screen technologies, heat dissipation technologies, color management, standard formulation, patented technologies, research and development capabilities, etc. In the laser light source technology, a laser beam is used to transmit through images; optical engine and imaging devices include optical imaging devices, optical engine and drive circuits, for which precision manufacturing and integration are the key to achieve high-quality display effects; the screen technology ensures image quality and color accuracy. The high barriers of laser display technologies also indicate huge market potentials and development prospect. Thanks to the increasing maturity and decreasing costs of laser display technologies, laser display is expected to enhance its position on the display market in the future. We are committed in the breakthroughs, innovations, expansion of application scenarios, and industrialization of semiconductor laser light source technologies; in particular, we have profound accumulation in light source technologies, optical engine and imaging technologies, screen technologies, etc., and have created technology reserves and patent portfolios covering the whole technology chain of laser display technology from key system architecture, core devices to key algorithms. Meanwhile, the Company has devoted many R&D resources in the miniaturization of laser display system, light source architecture, complete equipment structure, machine perception, and the preparation and processing of thin film materials to maintaining the leading position in the industry. As a Leader Level Member of the Laser Illuminated Projector Association (LIPA), we have participated in the preparation of the international laser display standard. 3.2 Analysis of the position of the Company in the industry and changes therein The ALPD semiconductor laser light source technology, as the mainstream technology in the field of laser display, has the advantages of high brightness, small size, long service life, wide color gamut, energy conservation and environmental protection, etc. As the inventor of the ALPD semiconductor laser light source technology and the leader in the laser display industry, we have built a patent moat around the underlying technical architecture of ALPD semiconductor laser light source technology, and created technology reserves and patent portfolios covering the whole technology chain of laser display technology from key system architecture, core devices to key algorithms; projection brands entering the technology route of laser phosphor technologies can hardly bypass our underlying patent layout. In addition, we are committed in the breakthroughs, innovations, expansion of application scenarios, and industrialization of semiconductor laser light source technology. Thanks to the core competitive advantages consisting of “patent moat + technical barriers”, the Company continuously holds a key position at the upstream core device stage. 12 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report II. Core technologies and progress in R&D of technologies 1. Core technologies and their advancement, and changes during the reporting period The ALPD is our original semiconductor laser light source technology of great significance in the display industry. 1) Original creation: In the past lighting and display, the rare earth phosphor is used only in LED light sources, while we made the original creation of using rare earth phosphor in laser light sources. 2) Uniqueness: To improve the stability of the rare earth phosphor after being excited by laser, we explored a unique impulse mode and created unique impulse architecture, which is under strict patent protection. 3) Flexibility: Since the ALPD semiconductor laser light source technology combines two materials/devices, there are many methods of adjustment between the two portions in this architecture, including ① adjustable blue light distribution to output light that is adjustable in space; ② various phosphor powders to achieve flexible color segments; and ③ adjustable ratio and strength among color segments after the blue light is excited. Therefore, the output light is adjustable in terms of strength distribution, brightness distribution, color temperature, and color to meet the requirements for different scenarios. 4) Significance of the industry: Despite the long history of using a laser light source in the display industry, subject to the high cost of red and green lasers, it was hard to make breakthroughs in the industrialization of laser light sources. However, our ALPD semiconductor laser light source technology greatly promoted the process of commercialization and industrialization of laser in the projection display industry. 5) Significance in materials: The ALPD semiconductor laser light source technology relies on the blue laser and rare earth phosphor more than the RGB technology. The blue laser and blue LED share the gallium nitride material system; given the developed LED industry in China, there is a favorable basis of the gallium nitride system industry. In terms of the rare earth phosphor, since China has the most abundant rare earth resources in the world, and rare earth phosphor is one of the important applications of the rare earth element, China has the advantages of resource reserves in the world in terms of rare earth phosphor. We have created a perfect combination point between the two material systems for which China has the industry advantages, which provided the basic conditions for the long-lasting development of this technology architecture.

(II) Events occurred during the reporting period that have a material effect on the Company’s core competitiveness, analysis of the effect and countermeasures □ Applicable√ N/A IV. Discussion and analysis of business situations During the reporting period, we persisted in the development strategy of “core technologies + core devices + application scenarios” to accelerate business transformation of the Company. In the first half of 2024, we achieved rapid development of the automotive optics business, achieving the operating income of RMB 241 million, including about RMB 200 million achieved in the 2nd quarter of 2024, indicating that the business has entered the revenue contribution period. 19 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report During the reporting period, we took active measures to adjust the business structure and continuously improve the overall operating quality. Thanks to rapid volume increase of the automotive business, we achieved the total operating income of RMB 1.081 billion, a slight increase year on year. The automotive business is a new business scenario expanded by the Company in 2022. Based on our technology advantages and rapid implementation of strategic transformation, this business developed rapidly to support the Company’s performance. At present, we are taking active measures to deliver nominated products for the automotive business while actively striving for new nominations, which is expected to strongly support the growth of both incomes and profits for the Company in the future. During the reporting period, we achieved the net profit attributable to the parent company of RMB 10.9096 million, primary due to the legal service fees for the arbitration case with the participating company GDC and the investment losses caused by the equity interests in GDC as other non-current financial assets. With the factors above eliminated, the profitability of our main businesses remained stable. In the first half of 2024, we achieved obvious optimization in the operating quality - the selling expenses reduced by RMB 44.0768 million year on year, reducing the rate of selling expenses to 9.18%; Formovie recorded the loss of RMB 48.5262 million in the first half of 2024, where the losses were reduced by RMB 30.6906 million. The Company is firmly determined to solve the problems left over from the rapid development in early stages. At present, we are making breakthroughs to larger business racetracks, which is in line with the technology and industry chain layout for both the upstream and downstream of the Company. Thanks to the years of efforts in the automobile racetrack, we will see more obvious structural changes and business optimization in the future. 1. Development of the Company’s main businesses during the reporting period is as follows: 1.1 The start of an intense delivery period for M9 leads to the income of RMB 241 million from the automotive optics business Given the development toward electric, intelligent, and Internet-connected vehicles, vehicles are transforming from a merely transportation means to an intelligent and mobile life space. Therefore, the “experience of five senses” created by smart cockpits became a key point for major automobile manufacturers to produce differentiated products. In the first half of 2024, we grasped the opportunity of vehicle intelligentization development by continuously focusing on the logic of cooperation with major customers to make full use of the technology competitiveness and nomination experience in automotive optics, and actively expanded the nomination cooperation with Chinese and foreign leading automobile manufacturers. By now, we have acquired 7 nominations from automobile manufacturers, including 2 AITO models (both of which are smart cockpit display products, where AITO M9 has achieved mass production), 1 model of Beijing Electric Vehicle (where Stelato S9 has been implemented), 2 models of BYD (smart cockpit display, and headlight module), HASCO Vision (PGU display module of AR-HUD), and Mercedes-Benz Smart #5 concept vehicle (colorful projection headlight). In March 2024, AITO M9, the first nominated automobile model of the Company entered the stage of intense mass production and 20 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report delivery, making the breakthrough from zero to one for the automotive optics business. As of the disclosure date of this Report, according to the official information, over 120,000 M9 vehicles have been booked with down payment made. The increase in the shipment of AITO M9 vehicles manifested our success in building the first benchmark product of automobile-grade projection giant screens in the intelligent vehicle industry. Meanwhile, the increasing interests of automobile manufacturers in vehicle-mounted large projection screens provide a solid foundation for the Company to acquire more nominations from automobile manufacturers. In May 2024, we received another Notice of Development Nomination from Seres, under which we are designated to supply smart cockpit display products for new AITO models. This nomination is expected to achieve mass production and delivery in 2025, which will cause positive effects on the operating performance of the Company during the life cycle of such project. In August 2024, Stelato S9, another nominated model of the Company, was officially released and entered the delivery period. This model, being equipped with our automobile-grade projection giant screens, realized the coverage of automobile-grade projection giant screens for automobile models at reduced prices for the first time. We pay attention to the combination of intelligentization and innovation for vehicle-mounted products. In the field of headlights, we released the world’s first ALL-in-ONE laser headlights at the 2024 Beijing International Automotive Exhibition. Thanks to the light modulation and color temperature adjustment achieved through the ALPD semiconductor laser technology, this ALL-in-ONE laser headlight integrated multiple functions into one small-size headlight module, including high beam assistance, adaptive driving beam (ADB), front fog light with adaptive color temperature, and colorful DLP display, covering both directions of “accurate lighting + accurate display” while matching with more application scenarios and functions, thus reducing the part costs and difficulty in supply chain management for customers; meanwhile, on the basis of vehicle security and differentiated experience, this laser headlight facilitates the designing of automobile front face and significantly improves function upgrade. Given that the ALL-in-ONE laser headlight adopts the ALPD semiconductor laser light source, it has advantages of higher brightness, slower light attenuation, higher light-emitting efficiency, longer service life, better stability, etc. compared with conventional headlights. At present, we are making efforts to promote the ALL-in-ONE laser headlights to major automobile manufacturers and taking active measures to achieve nomination cooperation around this product. 1.2 The cinema business maintains its position as a “cash cow” to continuously provide stable cash flow for the Company In the 1st quarter of 2024, the record-breaking Spring Festival box office and the continuous release of film watching demands driven by outstanding films led to an active film market, which achieved the operating income of RMB 153 million for our cinema business. The film market was relatively normal under the impact of film supply in the 2nd quarter of 2024. The performance of our cinema business in the 2nd quarter decreased on a quarter-on-quarter basis - achieving the operating income of RMB 114 million; however, the position of the cinema business as a “cash cow” of the Company remained unchanged and continuously provided stable cash flow for the Company. 21 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report During the reporting period, we made use of our profound accumulation and technical advantages in the cinema industry to actively promote the ALPD laser light source projection solution and the VLED LED Cinema projection solution, so as to improve the resilience of the cinema industry for high-quality development. 1.3 Stable development of the dedicated display business to empower the high-quality development of the culture industry with scientific and technology innovation In light of the increasing integration of IP, technology, and cultural tourism and the emergence of immersive cultural tourism, we take the trend of refined, digitalized, and quality-oriented cultural tourism industry by providing products and services that are more adaptive. During the reporting period, we achieved the operating income of RMB 201 million from the dedicated display business, essentially sustaining the level in the last year; where the large venue business contributed the operating income of RMB 124 million, up by nearly 24%. In the first half of 2024, we made use of high-brightness large venue projectors to successfully implement the benchmark project of the global tour of “Encounter Sanxingdui - 12K Macro View of National Treasure”, which has become a representative work of China presented to the world; moreover, we made great efforts to implement multiple benchmark projects, including “Panda Planet” - the first official immersive panda lighting exhibition, “Meeting Matsu” - a large immersive digital lighting show, so as to empower the culture industry for high-quality development with scientific and technology innovation. 2. Continuous R&D investments in cutting-edge fields for expansion to the field of AI and AR smart glasses During the reporting period, we continuously promoted the integration of laser display technologies with new technologies to expand to artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR), and robot fields. We have released the world’s first AR optical module with over 10,000 PPI that we developed independently. It is suitable for AR glasses to solve the pain point of light weight for daily wearing, thereby meeting the brightness requirements for multiple indoor and outdoor application scenarios when used in consumer AR glasses or AI smart glasses. It is expected that smart glasses will not be limited to the existing AI speech interaction in the future, but will be integrated with AR display to create a mainstream trend. Being equipped with an optical solution and display module, smart glasses can achieve functions and experience that are more immersive for users. By now, our R&D teams have achieved about 200 patents granted or filed in the AR and AI fields, including over 30 new patents related to AR and AI granted or filed during the reporting period. In terms of the optical solution for light sources, we focus on the light wave guide technology and have acquired the capabilities of independent designing and sample supply in small batches; with respect to light generators, we have multiple technology routes for LCOS, DLP, Microled, laser scanning, etc. ready, all of which can be used for product development in response to the demands of complete equipment manufacturers. Since the smart glasses industry is in the stage of early development and user cultivation at present, we firmly continue our investments in small sizes, light weight, and lower costs to work with complete 22 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report equipment manufacturers in exploring innovative solutions for smart glasses and providing diversified solutions for complete equipment manufacturers. Significant changes in the operations of the Company during the reporting period, and the events that have or are expected to have a significant impact on the operations of the Company during the reporting period □ Applicable√ N/A V. Risk factors √ Applicable□ N/A 1. Cyclical fluctuation risks of the macro environment and the consumer electronics industry At present, given that the global economy is experiencing cyclical fluctuation, the public are more prudent in consumption, which slows down the demands on the consumer electronics market. As optional consumption products, smart projection products are facing more significant short-term fluctuation. Slow recovery of demands in the consumer electronics industry in the future may still cause adverse effects to the operating incomes and profits of our businesses related to household projection. We will continue to enhance efforts for studying the macro-economic conditions, closely follow the development trend of the consumer electronics industry, conduct in-depth research into market demands, constantly enhance efforts for product R&D and technology investment, improve our R&D and product designing competence, assess risks rapidly, and take initiative to make relevant business adjustment, thus improving the risk tolerance of the Company. 2. Financial risks (1) Risk of impairment of accounts receivable As of the end of the reporting period, the book value of our accounts receivable was RMB 322.4292 million, accounting for 7.53% of our total assets. Our products are generally delivered after receiving the payment therefor. We give certain credit period to some major and high-quality customers. In case of any material adverse change in the business condition of our customers, we may be unable to recover certain accounts receivable, which may have an adverse effect on our operating performance in the future. The Company strengthens risk management and control, continuously tracks and controls customer credit, and strengthens the assessment of accounts receivable collection, and establishes an early warning system for overdue accounts receivable; for individual customers who maliciously default and have a long period of arrears, payment will be recovered through arbitration, litigation and other legal methods. (2) Risk of impairment of inventories As of the end of the reporting period, the book value of our inventories was RMB 660.4429 million, accounting for 15.42% of our assets. Our inventories mainly comprise raw materials and goods in stock. In the event of any significant change in the competition pattern of the industry, and material innovation in laser display technology and products, the recoverable amount of the inventories will be lower than their book value. The impairment of inventories will have a negative effect on our earnings. The Company will pay close attention to the changes in supply and demand of the industrial chain, and promptly carry out production and marketing coordination according to the market and production conditions to reduce 23 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report product inventory risks. (3) Risk of impairment of fixed assets As of the end of the reporting period, the book value of our fixed asset was RMB 308.1233 million, accounting for 7.19% of our assets. Our fixed assets mainly consist of production equipment and cinema projector light sources for lease, where the cinema projector light sources account for 63.20%. If force majeure factors result in shutdown of cinemas, the cinema projector light sources may be idle, causing risks of impairment of fixed assets and adverse effects to the operation of the Company. In order to cope with the above risks, the Company will pay close attention to the status of fixed assets, strengthen communication with business departments, improve the efficiency of asset use, and reduce the risk of impairment. In the meanwhile, for assets that show signs of impairment, the Company will measure the recoverable amount and make an impairment provision for fixed assets based on the difference between the recoverable amount and the book value. (4) Risk of exchange rate movement The Company’s procurement and sales involve a variety of foreign currencies, of which dollar is the main foreign currency. If the exchange rate of the relevant currency fluctuates, it will have a certain impact on the Company’s financial position. In this regard, in order to effectively avoid the risks of the foreign exchange market, prevent large fluctuations in the exchange rate from adversely affecting the Company’s business performance, improve the efficiency of the use of foreign exchange funds, and reasonably reduce financial costs, the Company carries out foreign exchange derivatives and other businesses in a timely manner to reduce the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. (5) Risk of changes in fair values As of June 30, 2024, the subsidiary Appotronics HK held other non-current financial assets for the equity interests in GDC BVI with the fair value of RMB 99.44 million. In the event of great fluctuation in the performance of GDC BVI or other material changes in its operating environment in the future, the equity assets held by the Company in GDC BVI may experience the risk of fair value changes. 3. Risks in failing to implement investment projects as expected Under the impact of changes in the internal and external environment, there are risks that the Company cannot implement investment projects as expected. Despite the efforts of the Company in enhancing the management over investment projects, accelerating the progress of investment projects, and constantly monitoring the progress of such investment projects, in the actual implementation, the Company still cannot avoid situation like delayed construction compared with the plan, or adjustment to the implementation plan or solution in response to industry and market development. Upon the occurrence of such circumstances, the Company will make decisions in accordance with relevant provisions and promptly fulfill its obligations for information disclosure. 4. Risks in the arbitration with relevant parties of the participating company GDC BVI At present, the Company is in the process of arbitration and counter arbitration with relevant parties of GDC concerning the rights and interests of the parties. Given that the case is under trial at present, the impact of such case on the profit or loss of the Company cannot be determined; the eventual actual impact 24 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report depends on the award of the arbitration tribunal or the negotiation between the parties. The Company has engaged a professional attorney team and taken relevant legal measures to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the Company and all shareholders in accordance with the law, and will promptly fulfill the information disclosure obligations in accordance with relevant provisions.

Given the factors such as tense supply chain and changes in macro conditions both in and outside of China, the Company’s actual output did not achieve the target additional output; [Note 3] On April 26, 2023, the Company held the 19th meeting of the second Board of Directors and the 18th meeting of the second Board of Supervisors respectively, which deliberated and approved the Proposal on the Completion of Part of the Company’s Investment Projects and Permanent Replenishment of Liquidity with the Surplus Raised Funds, and agreed that the Company would close the investment project “R&D and industrialization of new generation of laser display products”, and a total of RMB 51.6167 million saved (as of December 31, 2022) shall be used for permanent replenishment of the working capital.

This special account (Huaxia Bank Co., Ltd. Shenzhen Houhai Sub-branch, account number: 10869000000305964) has been deregistered on May 17, 2023, and the funds have been transferred to the general account of the Company; [Note 4] The Company held the 19th meeting of the second Board of Directors and the 18th meeting of the second Board of Supervisors on April 26, 2023 and the annual general meeting for 2022 on May 19, 2023, respectively, approving the Proposal on Adjusting Internal Investment Structure of Some Investment Projects through deliberation, and agreeing the Company to adjust the internal investment structure of the investment project “R&D center at the head office of Appotronics”, and to decrease the “equipment purchase expenses” by RMB 65.0000 million and increase the “R&D expenditures” by RMB 65.0000 million; [Note 5] During the project, the total wealth management returns of RMB 2.3950 million were realized from the special account of supplementary working capital, which have been put into use in the project (supplementary working capital). As of the date of approval for issue of this Report, the special account (Huaxia Bank Co., Ltd. Shenzhen Houhai Sub-branch, account number: 10869000000251463) has been deregistered. The interest of RMB 1,418.11 incurred after the project has been paid to the basic account of the Company to be used as supplementary working capital; [Note 6] The Company held the 9th meeting of the second Board of Directors and the 1st extraordinary general meeting of shareholders for 2022 respectively on March 18, 2022 and March 29, 2022, approving the Proposal on Repurchase of Shares of the Company through Call Auction through deliberation, and agreeing the Company to use the excess offering funds to repurchase some RMB-denominated ordinary shares (A shares) issued by it through call auction; 52 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report The Company held the 27th meeting of the second Board of Directors on January 31, 2024, approving the Proposal on Repurchase of Shares of the Company through Call Auction through deliberation, and agreeing the Company to use the excess offering funds and own funds to repurchase some RMB-denominated ordinary shares (A shares) issued by it through call auction; and the Company held the 31st meeting of the second Board of Directors on April 17, 2024, approving the Proposal on 2024 Second Repurchase of Shares of the Company through Call Auction through deliberation, and agreeing the Company to use the excess offering funds and own funds to repurchase some RMB-denominated ordinary shares (A shares) issued by it through call auction. [Note 7] There was a difference between the committed investment by the end of the period and the total offering proceeds committed, which was primarily due to the repurchase made with the incomes from wealth management of excess offering proceeds and interests on deposits. [Note 8] Subject to the restriction of relevant management measures and banks’ requirements in operation, the Company paid expenses including salaries, social insurance premiums, and contributions for housing funds for investment projects with non-offering proceeds, and then repaid such expenses by transferring funds of the corresponding amount from the special account of offering proceeds to the general account of the Company; [Note 9] Some sum values do not correspond to the aggregate of breakdown values in the table above due to rounding. 53 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report 2.

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies A foreign currency transaction is recorded in RMB, on initial recognition, by applying the spot exchange rate on the date of the transaction. At the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated into RMB using the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from such translations are recognized in profit or loss for the current period, except for those attributable to foreign currency borrowings that have been taken out specifically for the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets and accrued interest. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at historical cost are translated using the foreign exchange rates ruling at the transaction dates, without adjusting the amounts in RMB. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are translated using the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the dates when the fair value was determined, with exchange differences arising from such translations recognized in profit or loss for the current period or other comprehensive income. 2. Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies Asset and liability items on the balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date; owners’ equity items other than “retained profits” are translated at the spot exchange rates at the dates on which such items arose; income and expense items in the income statement are translated at the exchange rates that approximate the actual spot exchange rates on the dates of the transactions. Exchange differences arising from such translations are recognized in other comprehensive income. 11. Financial instruments √ Applicable□ N/A 1. Classification of financial assets and financial liabilities On initial recognition, the Company’s financial assets are classified into three categories, including (1) financial assets at amortized cost; (2) financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income; and (3) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss for the current period. Upon initial recognition, the Company’s financial liabilities are classified into four categories, including (1) financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss for the current period; (2) financial liabilities arising as a result of the transfer of financial assets not meeting the criteria for derecognition or 91 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report continuing involvement in the financial assets transferred; (3) financial guarantee contracts not falling under Clauses (1) and (2), and loan commitments not falling under Clause (1) and below market interest rate; and (4) financial liabilities at amortized cost. 2. Recognition, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities (1) Recognition and initial measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities When the Company becomes a party to a financial instrument contract, a financial asset or liability is recognized. Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs relating to financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are directly recognized in profit or loss for the current period. Transaction costs relating to other kinds of financial assets or liabilities are included in their initially recognized amount. However, the accounts receivable that do not contain any significant financing component or are recognized by the Company without taking into consideration the financing components under the contracts with a term of less than one year upon initial recognition are initially measured at transaction price defined in the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue. (2) Subsequent measurement of financial assets 1) Financial assets at amortized cost Financial assets at amortized cost are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses arising from financial assets at amortized cost that do not belong to any hedging relationship are recognized in profit or loss for the current period upon derecognition, reclassification, amortization using the effective interest method or recognition of impairment. 2) Investments in debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income Investments in debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest, impairment losses or gains and exchange gains or losses calculated using the effective interest method are recognized in profit or loss for the current period, and other gains or losses are recognized in other comprehensive income. Upon derecognition, the aggregate gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to profit or loss for the current period. 3) Investments in equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income Investments in equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends received (other than those received as recovery of investment cost) are recognized in profit or loss for the current period, and other gains or losses are recognized in other comprehensive income. Upon derecognition, the accumulated gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to retained earnings. 4) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss for the current period Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss for the current period are subsequently measured at fair value, with gains or losses arising therefrom, including interest and dividend income, recognized in profit or loss for the current period, except the financial assets belonging to any hedging relationship. (3) Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities 1) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss for the current period Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss for the current period include financial liabilities held for trading (including derivatives classified as financial liabilities), and financial liabilities directly designated as at fair value through profit or loss for the current period. Such financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss for the current period arising out of changes in the Company’s own credit risk are recognized in other comprehensive income, unless such treatment will result in or increase any accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Other gains or losses arising from such financial liabilities, including interest expenses and changes in fair value not arising out of changes in the Company’s own credit risk, are recognized in profit or loss for the current period, except the financial liabilities belonging to any hedging relationship. Upon derecognition, the accumulated gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to retained earnings. 2) Financial liabilities arising as a result of the transfer of financial assets not meeting the criteria for 92 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report derecognition or continuing involvement in the financial assets transferred Such financial liabilities are measured in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 23 - Transfer of Financial Assets. 3) Financial guarantee contracts not falling under Clauses 1) and 2), and loan commitments not falling under Clause 1) and below market interest rate Upon initial recognition, such financial liabilities are subsequently measured at the higher of ① provision for impairment losses determined according to the policy for impairment of financial instruments; and ② balance of the initially recognized amount after deduction of the accumulated amortization determined in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue. 4) Financial liabilities at amortized cost Financial liabilities at amortized cost are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses on financial liabilities at amortized cost that do not belong to any hedging relationship are recognized in profit or loss for the current period upon derecognition or amortization using the effective interest method. (4) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities 1) Financial assets are derecognized when: ① the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial assets has expired; or ② the financial assets have been transferred and such transfer meets the criteria for derecognition of financial assets as set forth in the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 23 - Transfer of Financial Assets. 2) A financial liability (or part thereof) is derecognized accordingly where its present obligation (or part thereof) is discharged. 3. Recognition and measurement of financial assets transferred When a financial asset of the Company is transferred, if substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of the financial asset have been transferred, the financial asset is derecognized, and the rights and obligations incurred or retained in such transfer are separately recognized as assets or liabilities (as the case may be); if substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of the financial asset have been retained, the financial asset transferred continues to be recognized. If the Company neither transfers nor retains a substantial portion of all risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of the financial asset, then: (1) if the Company does not retain control over the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognized, and the rights and obligations incurred or retained in such transfer are separately recognized as assets or liabilities (as the case may be); and (2) if the Company retains control over the financial asset, the financial asset continues to be recognized to the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement in the financial asset transferred, and a corresponding liability is recognized. If an entire transfer of a financial asset meets the criteria for derecognition, the difference between (1) the book value of the financial asset transferred at the date of derecognition; and (2) the sum of the consideration received from the transfer and the portion of the accumulated amount of changes in fair value directly recorded as other comprehensive income originally that corresponds to the part derecognized (where the financial asset transferred is an investment in debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income) is recognized in profit or loss for the current period. If part of a financial asset is transferred and the part transferred entirely meets the criteria for derecognition, the total book value of the financial asset immediately prior to the transfer is allocated between the part derecognized and the part not derecognized in proportion to their relative fair value at the date of transfer, and the difference between (1) the book value of the part derecognized; and (2) the sum of the consideration received from the transfer of the part derecognized and the portion of the accumulated amount of changes in fair value directly recorded as other comprehensive income originally that corresponds to the part derecognized (where the financial asset transferred is an investment in debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income) is recognized in profit or loss for the 93 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report current period. 4. Determination of fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities The Company adopts the valuation techniques applicable to the current situations and with sufficient data available and support of other information, to determine the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities. The Company classifies the inputs used by the valuation techniques in the following levels and uses them in turn: (1) Level 1 inputs: quoted market price (unadjusted) in an active market for an identical asset or liability available at the date of measurement; (2) Level 2 inputs: inputs other than inputs included within Level 1 that are observable directly or indirectly. This category includes quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, observable inputs other than quoted prices (such as interest rate and yield curves observable during regular intervals of quotation), and inputs validated by the market; and (3) Level 3 inputs: inputs that are unobservable. This category includes interest rate or stock volatility that cannot be directly observed or validated by observable market data, future cash flows from retirement obligation incurred in business combinations, and financial forecasts made using own data. 5. Impairment of financial instruments The Company determines the impairment and assesses provision for impairment losses of financial assets at amortized cost, investments in debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income, contract assets, lease receivable, loan commitments other than financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss for the current period, and financial guarantee contracts other than financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss for the current period and financial liabilities arising as a result of the transfer of financial assets not meeting the criteria for derecognition or continuing involvement in the financial assets transferred, on the basis of expected credit losses. Expected credit loss is the weighted average of credit losses on financial instruments taking into account the possibility of default. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows receivable under the contract and estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate, i.e. the present value of all cash shortage, wherein the Company’s purchased or originated financial assets that have become credit-impaired are discounted at their credit-adjusted effective interest rate. With respect to purchased or originated financial assets that have become credit-impaired, at the balance sheet date, the Company recognizes a loss allowance equal to the accumulated amount of changes in lifetime expected credit losses since initial recognition. With respect to lease receivable, accounts receivable and contract assets that are formed from transactions under the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue, the Company uses the simple measurement method and recognizes a loss allowance equal to the lifetime expected credit loss. With respect to financial assets not using the measurement methods stated above, at each balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, and recognizes a loss allowance equal to the lifetime expected credit loss if the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, or to the expected credit losses within the next 12 months if the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition. The Company uses reasonable and supportable information, including forward-looking information, and compares the possibility of default at the balance sheet date with the possibility of default upon initial recognition, to determine whether the credit risk of the financial instruments has increased significantly since initial recognition. At the balance sheet date, if the Company determines that a financial instrument only has low credit risk, the Company assumes that its credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition. The Company assesses expected credit risk and measures expected credit losses of financial instruments individually or collectively. When assessing the financial instruments collectively, the Company includes the financial instruments in different groups according to their common risk 94 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report characteristics. At each balance sheet date, the Company re-assesses the expected credit losses, with the amount of increase in or reversal of loss allowance recognized in profit or loss for the current period as impairment losses or gains. With respect to a financial asset at amortized cost, its book value recorded in the balance sheet is written off against the loss allowance. With respect to an investment in debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income, the Company recognizes the loss allowance in other comprehensive income, without reducing its book value. 6. Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities Financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the balance sheet separately, without offsetting each other. However, the Company may represent the financial assets and financial liabilities on a net basis in the balance sheet only if: (1) the Company has a legal right that is currently enforceable to set off the recognized financial assets and financial liabilities, and (2) the Company intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the financial asset and settle the financial liability simultaneously. With respect to the transfer of financial assets not meeting the criteria for derecognition, the Company does not offset the financial assets transferred against the relevant liabilities. 7.

Categories of inventories Inventories include finished goods or merchandise held by the Company for sale in the ordinary course of business, or work in progress in the process of production for such sale, or materials or supplies to be consumed in the production process or in the rendering of services. 2. Valuation method of inventories upon delivery The actual cost of inventories upon delivery is calculated using the moving weighted average method. 3. Inventory count system The perpetual inventory system is maintained for stock system. 4. Amortization method for low cost and short-lived consumable items and packaging materials (1) Low cost and short-lived consumable items Low cost and short-lived consumable items are amortized using the immediate write-off method. (2) Packaging materials Packaging materials are amortized using the immediate write-off method. Recognition standard and method for provision of impairment for inventory √ Applicable□ N/A At the balance sheet date, inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. If the net realizable value is below the cost, a provision for decline in value of inventories is made. For inventories directly used for sale, the net realizable value is determined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes. For inventories required for processing, the net realizable value is determined as the estimated selling price of finished goods in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion, and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes. As at the balance sheet date, if in the same item of 97 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report inventories, some are agreed with contractual prices while the others are not, the net realizable value for such inventories is determined separately, and compared with the costs of the two parts of inventories distinctively, as to determine the provisions or reversal of provisions for decline in value of inventories separately.

Non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale □ Applicable√ N/A Recognition standard and accounting method for non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale □ Applicable√ N/A Determination standard and presentation method for discontinued operation □ Applicable√ N/A 19. Long-term equity investments √ Applicable□ N/A 1. Judgments on joint control and significant influence Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities of such arrangement require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but does not control or jointly control over those policies. 2. Determination of investment cost (1) In case of an equity investment acquired through a business combination involving entities under common control, if the acquirer pays consideration for the business combination by cash, transfer of non- 98 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report monetary assets, assumption of liabilities or issuance of equity securities, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment is the Company’s share of the book value of the owners’ equity of the acquiree in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controller at the date of combination. The difference between: (i) the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment; and (ii) the book value of the consideration paid for the combination or the total par value of the shares issued is treated as an adjustment to the capital reserve. In case the capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the remaining balance is adjusted against the retained earnings. For a long-term equity investment acquired through a business combination involving entities under common control that is achieved through multiple transactions by steps, the Company shall judge whether such transactions constitute a package deal. If such transactions constitute a package deal, the Company accounts for such transactions as one transaction to acquire control. If such transactions do not constitute a package deal, the initial investment cost is the Company’s share of the book value of the net assets of the acquiree in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controller at the date of combination. The difference between: (i) the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment at the date of combination; and (ii) the sum of the book value of long-term equity investment before the combination and the book value of the consideration paid for acquisition of the additional shares at the date of combination is adjusted against the capital reserve. In case the capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the remaining balance is adjusted against the retained earnings. (2) In case of an equity investment acquired through a business combination not involving entities under common control, the initial investment cost is the fair value of the carrying amount of the consideration paid for the combination at the date of acquisition. With respect to a long-term equity investment acquired through a business combination not involving entities under common control that is achieved through multiple transactions by steps, the accounting treatment thereof in the separate financial statements is different from that in the consolidated financial statements as stated below: 1) In the separate financial statements, the sum of the book value of the equity investment originally held in the acquiree and the additional investment cost incurred is recorded as the initial investment cost of the equity investment changed into the cost method. 2) In the consolidated financial statements, it is required to judge whether such transactions constitute a package deal. If such transactions constitute a package deal, the Company accounts for such transactions as one transaction to acquire control. If such transactions do not constitute a “package deal”, the Company re-measures the fair value of the equity held in the acquiree prior to the date of acquisition, and records the difference between the fair value and the book value as investment income for the current period; if the equity held in the acquiree prior to the date of acquisition involves other comprehensive income under equity method, such other comprehensive income is transferred to the income of the period in which the date of acquisition falls, except for other comprehensive income arising from re-measurement by the investee of changes in net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans. (3) In the event of no business combination: the initial investment cost is the purchase price actually paid if it is acquired by cash, or the fair value of the equity securities issued if it is acquired through issuance of equity securities, or determined in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 12 - Debt Restructuring if it is acquired through debt restructuring, or determined in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 7 - Exchange of Non-monetary Assets if it is acquired through exchange of non-monetary assets. 3. Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss Long-term equity investments in investees are measured using the cost method.

Construction in progress √ Applicable□ N/A 1. Construction in progress is recognized if the economic benefits relating to it are very likely to flow to the Company and its cost can be reliably measured. A construction in progress is measured at the actual cost incurred before it is completed and ready for intended use. 2. When a construction in progress is ready for intended use, it is transferred to fixed assets at its actual construction cost. A construction in progress that is ready for intended use but the final settlement of which has not yet been completed is transferred to fixed assets at estimated value first, and after the completion of final settlement, the estimated value is adjusted according to the actual cost, but the accrued depreciation is not adjusted. Standards and timing for the transfer of construction in Category progress to fixed assets Machinery, equipment, and When reaching the standard required in the design or specified operating leased equipment in the contract after installation and commissioning Houses and buildings When reaching the working condition for its intended use 23. Borrowing costs √ Applicable□ N/A 1. Recognition for capitalization of borrowing costs Borrowing costs incurred by the Company that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are recognized as expenses and charged to the current profit or loss. 2. Capitalization period of borrowing costs (1) Borrowing costs are capitalized when all of the following conditions are met: 1) capital expenditure has been incurred; 2) borrowing costs have been incurred; and 3) activities relating to the acquisition, construction or production of the asset that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale have commenced. (2) Where acquisition and construction or production of a qualified asset is interrupted abnormally and the interruption period lasts for more than 3 months, the capitalization of the borrowing costs shall be 100 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report suspended. The borrowing costs incurred during these periods shall be recognized as expenses for the current period until the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset is resumed. (3) Capitalization of borrowing costs shall be ceased when acquisition, construction or production of the qualifying asset has prepared for its intended use or sale. 3. Capitalization rate and capitalization amount of borrowing costs As for the specific borrowings for the acquisition and construction or production of assets qualifying for capitalization, the to-be-capitalized amount of interests shall be determined in light of the actual interest expense incurred on the current specific borrowings (including the amortization of discounts or premiums determined using the effective interest method) minus the income of interests earned from the unused borrowings by depositing it in the bank or investment income from such borrowing by making it as a temporary investment; where a general borrowing is used for the acquisition and construction or production of assets qualifying for capitalization, the Company shall calculate and determine the to-be- capitalized amount of interests on the general borrowing by multiplying the weighted average value of the accumulative expenditures to asset minus the specific borrowing by the capitalization rate of the general borrowing used. 24.

Where an R&D person serves multiple R&D projects at the same time, the personnel expenses are recognized based on the records of working hours of the R&D personnel in respective R&D projects provided by the management departments of the Company, and are allocated in proportion among the R&D projects. Where the R&D employees and external R&D personnel directly engaging in R&D activities also get involved in non-R&D activities, the Company allocates the personnel expenses actually incurred for such personnel between the R&D expenses and the production and operation expenses in proportion to 101 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report the actual working hours or by using another reasonable method based on the records of working hours of such R&D personnel at different posts. (2) Expenses of direct investments The expenses of direct investments refer to the relevant expenditures actually incurred by the Company for conducting R&D activities, including: 1) expenses of materials, fuels, and power directly consumed; 2) expenses for developing and manufacturing molds and process equipment for intermediate tests and product trials, expenses for the procurement of samples, sample devices, and general tests not constituting fixed assets, and inspection expenses for trial products; and 3) the expenses for the maintenance, adjustment, check, inspection, repair, etc. of the instrument and devices used in R&D activities. (3) Depreciation expenses and long-term prepaid expenses Depreciation expenses refer to the depreciation costs of instruments, equipment, and buildings used in R&D activities. Where the instrument, equipment, and buildings used in R&D activities are also used for non-R&D activities at the same time, necessary records are kept for the use of such instruments, equipment, and buildings, and the depreciation expenses actually incurred are allocated between the R&D expenses and the production and operation expenses by using a reasonable method based on the actual working hours and areas in use. Long-term prepaid expenses refer to the long-term prepaid expenses incurred during the reconstruction, modification, decoration, and repair of R&D facility, which shall be collected according to the expenditures actually incurred, and be amortized on an average basis for the specified period.

Impairment of long-term assets √ Applicable□ N/A 102 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report For long-term equity investments, fixed assets, construction in progress, right-of-use assets, intangible assets with a finite service life and other long-term assets, if there’s an indication of impairment at the balance sheet date, the Company assesses their recoverable amount. Goodwill arising from business combinations and intangible assets with an infinite service life are tested for impairment every year regardless of whether there’s an indication of impairment. Goodwill is tested for impairment together with the relevant groups of assets or combinations of groups of assets. If the recoverable amount of a long-term asset is less than its carrying amount, the difference is measured as impairment loss of the asset and recognized in profit or loss for the current period. 28. Long-term prepaid expenses √ Applicable□ N/A Long-term prepaid expenses are expenses that have already been incurred but should be amortized over a period of more than one year (excluding one year). Long-term prepaid expenses are stated as the amount actually incurred and shall be amortized evenly by stages within the benefit period or specified period. If an item of long-term prepaid expenses will not benefit the subsequent periods, the amortized value of the item that has not yet been amortized is wholly transferred to profit or loss for the current period. 29.

(1) In the accounting period during which employee services are rendered, the amount in contribution as calculated according to the defined contribution plan is recognized as liabilities and included in profit or loss for the current period or the cost of related assets. (2) The accounting treatment of a defined benefit plan generally involves the following steps: 1) According to the projected unit credit method, use unbiased and consistent actuarial assumptions to estimate demographic variables and financial variables, measure the obligation arising from the defined benefit plan and determine the period to which the relevant obligation belongs. Meanwhile, discount the obligation arising from the defined benefit plan, in order to determine the present value of the defined benefit plan obligation and the current service cost; 2) If the defined benefit plan has assets, the deficit or surplus resulting after reducing the present value of the defined benefit plan obligation by the fair value of the defined benefit plan is recognized as a net liability or asset of the defined benefit plan. If the defined benefit plan has a surplus, the net assets of the defined benefit plan are measured at the lower of surplus in the defined benefit plan and asset ceiling; 3) At the end of the reporting period, the cost of employee benefits arising from the defined benefit plan is recorded as service cost, net interest on the net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan, and changes arising from re-measurement of the net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan, wherein the service cost and the net interest on the net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan are included in profit or loss for the current period or the cost of related assets, and the changes arising from re-measurement of the net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan are included in other comprehensive income, which will not be reserved to profit or loss in subsequent periods, but may be transferred within the scope of equity. 103 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report (3).

An obligation arising from any external guarantee, litigation, product quality warranty, onerous contract or other contingencies is recognized as a provision if it is a present obligation assumed by the Company, and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount of the obligation can be reliably measured. 2. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation. The book value of provisions is reviewed at the balance sheet date. 32. Share-based payments √ Applicable□ N/A 1. Categories of share-based payments Share-based payments include equity-settled share-based payments and cash-settled share-based payments. 2. Accounting treatment for implementation, modification and termination of share-based payment plan (1) Equity-settled share-based payments Equity-settled share-based payments in exchange for services rendered by employees that can be executed immediately upon being granted, are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date, and recognized as related costs or expenses with a corresponding adjustment to capital reserve. At each balance sheet date during the vesting period, equity-settled share-based payments in exchange for services rendered by employees that cannot be executed until services in the vesting period are completed or required performance conditions are satisfied, are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date based on the best estimate of exercisable numbers of equity instruments, and recognized as related costs or expenses with a corresponding adjustment to capital reserve. For equity-settled share-based payments in exchange for services rendered by other parties, if the fair value of services from other parties can be measured reliably, they are measured at the fair value of services from other parties at the date when such services are received. If the fair value of services from other parties cannot be measured reliably but the fair value of the equity instruments can be measured reliably, they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the date when such services are received. The fair value of the equity instruments is recognized as related costs or expenses, with a corresponding increase in owners’ equity. (2) Cash-settled share-based payments Cash-settled share-based payments in exchange for services rendered by employees that can be executed immediately upon being granted, are recognized as related costs or expenses based on the fair value of liabilities assumed by the Company at the grant date, with a corresponding increase in liability. At each balance sheet date during the vesting period, cash-settled share-based payments in exchange for services rendered by employees that cannot be executed until services in the vesting period are completed or required performance conditions are satisfied, are measured at the fair value of liabilities assumed by the Company based on the best estimate of exercisable conditions, and recognized as related costs or expenses and relevant liabilities. 104 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report (3) Modification and termination of share-based payment plan If the modification increases the fair value of the equity instruments granted, the Company will include the incremental fair value of the equity instruments granted in the measurement of the amount recognized for services received. If the modification increases the number of equity instruments granted, the Company will include the fair value of additional equity instruments granted in the measurement of the amount recognized for services received. If the Company modifies the exercisable conditions of the share-based payment plan in a manner beneficial to the employee, the Company will consider the modified exercisable conditions when dealing with exercisable conditions. If the modification decreases the fair value of the equity instruments granted, the Company will continue to measure the amount recognized for services received at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date without including the decremental fair value of the equity instruments. If the modification decreases the number of equity instruments granted, the Company will treat the decreased number as the cancelled number of equity instruments granted. If the Company modifies the exercisable conditions in a manner unbeneficial to the employee, the Company will not consider the modified exercisable conditions when dealing with exercisable conditions. If cancellation or settlement of the equity instruments granted occurs (not due to unsatisfaction of exercisable conditions) during the vesting period, the Company will account for the cancellation or settlement of the equity instruments granted as an acceleration of vesting, and recognize immediately the amount that otherwise would have been recognized over the remainder of the vesting period. 33. Preferred shares, perpetual bonds and other financial instruments □ Applicable√ N/A 34. Revenue (1). Accounting policies adopted for revenue recognition and measurement by the type of business √ Applicable□ N/A 1. Principles for revenue recognition On the commencement date of a contract, the Company evaluates the contract, identifies each individual performance obligation contained therein and determines whether each individual performance obligation is performed over time or at a certain point in time. When meeting one of the following criteria, it belongs to the obligation performed over time, otherwise it constitutes the obligation performed at a certain point in time: (1) the customer obtains and consumes the economic benefits generated by the Company’s performance when the Company performs the contract; (2) the customer can control the products under construction in the process of the Company’s performance; (3) the products produced in the process of the Company’s performance have irreplaceable uses, and the Company has the right to collect payment for the cumulative performance that has been completed up to date throughout the term of the contract. For the obligation performed over time, the Company recognizes the revenue based on the performance progress over time. When the performance progress cannot be reasonably determined, and the costs incurred are expected to be recoverable, revenue is recognized to the extent of costs incurred until the performance progress can be reasonably determined. For the obligation performed at a certain point in time, the revenue is recognized at the time point when the customer obtains control of the related goods and services. When judging whether the customer has obtained the control of goods, the Company considers the following signs: (1) the Company has the current right to receive payment for such goods, that is, the customer has the current obligation to make payment for such goods; (2) the Company has transferred the legal ownership of such goods to the customer, that is, the customer has the legal ownership of such goods; (3) the Company has transferred such goods to the customer physically, that is, the customer has taken possession of such goods physically; (4) the Company has transferred material risks and rewards of such goods to the customer, that is, the customer has obtained material risks and rewards of such goods; (5) the customer has accepted such goods; and (6) other signs that the customer has obtained control of 105 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report such goods. 2. Principles for revenue measurement (1) The Company measures the revenue based on the transaction price allocated to individual performance obligations. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company is entitled arising from the transfer of goods or services to the customer, excluding the amount collected on behalf of a third party and expected to be returned to the customer. (2) If there is variable consideration in the contract, the Company determines the best estimate of the variable consideration based on the expected value or the most likely amount. However, variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, and to the extent that, it is highly probable that its inclusion will not result in a significant revenue reversal of accumulatively recognized revenue in the future when the uncertainty has been subsequently resolved. (3) If there is a major financing component in the contract, the Company determines the transaction price based on the presumed amount payable in cash when the customer obtains control of goods or services. The difference between the transaction price and contract consideration is amortized using the effective interest method during the term of the contract. If on the commencement of a contract, the Company expects that the customer’s acquisition of control of goods or services is not more than one year from the customer’s payment therefor, the major financing component in the contract will not be considered. (4) If the contract has two or multiple performance obligations, the Company, on the commencement of a contract, allocates the transaction price to each individual performance obligation in the contract by reference to relative standalone selling prices of goods promised thereby. (2). Different revenue recognition and measurement methods for businesses of the same type but operated under different modes √ Applicable□ N/A (1) Revenue from sales of goods The performance obligation concerning sales of goods (primarily divided into goods sold to the domestic market and goods exported to overseas markets) by the Company is taken as one satisfied at a certain point in time for the recognition of revenue. Goods sold to the domestic market: 1) Under the direct sale model and the distribution model, the Company recognizes the revenue when the goods sent have been delivered to customers with customers’ receipts given to the Company. For goods sold attached with return conditions, the Company recognizes the revenue according to the amount of consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods to customers, and recognizes the liabilities according to the expected amount to be returned due to sales return against the revenue; for goods required for installment and inspection after sales, the Company recognizes the revenue when such goods have been installed and inspected with customers’ acceptance certificate given to the Company; Where the Company shares the profit from the sales of products by downstream end customers, the revenue from such profit sharing is recognized at the best estimate of the variable consideration determined according to an expected value, which variable consideration is estimated reasonably at the time of revenue recognition. 2) Under the commissioned sales mode, the Company recognizes the revenue when it receives the list of commissioned sales from the customer. Goods exported to overseas markets: The Company mainly adopts FCA for export of goods. Under this mode, the Company recognizes revenue when it delivers goods at the designated location with export customs clearance procedures completed. (2) E-commerce platform revenue In the e-commerce platform model, the e-commerce platform is responsible for product promotion and order management. Consumers place orders and pay directly to the e-commerce platform, and the e- commerce platform arranges third-party logistics through the Company or ships directly to the consumer by the e-commerce platform after receiving the consumer’s payment. The specific revenue recognition time points are: for domestic e-commerce platforms, revenue is recognized according to the time of end 106 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report customer receipt; for foreign e-commerce platforms, revenue is recognized after receiving the confirmation list of the e-commerce platform after checking the reconciliation time agreed in the contract. (3) Other incomes Any other performance obligation of the Company is taken as one satisfied over time/at a certain point in time for the recognition of revenue. For installation services provided by the Company, the Company recognizes the revenue when it has completed the services and received customers’ acceptance certificate; for repair and maintenance services provided by the Company, the Company recognizes the revenue when it has completed the services and received payments; for patrol inspection services provided by the Company, the Company determines the service performance progress by using the output approach, and recognizes the revenue according to the performance progress; for patent licensing services provided by the Company, the Company recognizes the revenue when the patent licensing is completed and handed over; and for technology development services provided by the Company, the Company recognizes the revenue when it has completed the services or when the agreed time point of service acceptance is reached. 35. Contract costs □ Applicable√ N/A 36. Government grants √ Applicable□ N/A 1. Government grants are recognized if (1) the Company meets the conditions attaching to the government grants; and (2) the Company will receive the government grants. Government grants in the form of monetary assets are measured at the amount received or receivable. Government grants in the form of non-monetary assets are measured at fair value, or if their fair value is unavailable, at a nominal amount. 2. Determination and accounting treatment of government grants related to assets Government grants related to assets are government grants which are offered for purchasing, constructing or otherwise acquiring long-term assets as provided by the applicable government documents. In the absence of such express provision in the applicable government documents, government grants related to assets are those with a primary condition that the Company should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire long-term assets. Government grants related to assets are offset against the book value of the relevant assets or recognized as deferred income. Government grants related to assets recognized as deferred income shall be included in profit or loss over the service life of the relevant assets on a reasonable and systemic basis. Government grants measured at nominal amounts are directly recognized in profit or loss for the current period. In case of a sale, transfer, retirement or damage of the relevant assets before the end of the intended service life, the balance of the unallocated deferred income is transferred to profit or loss for the period in which the assets are disposed of. 3. Determination and accounting treatment of government grants related to income Government grants related to income are government grants other than those related to assets. Government grants related to both assets and income in which it is difficult to make a distinction between the portion related to assets and the portion related to income are wholly classified as government grants related to income. Government grants related to income as compensation for expenses or losses to be incurred in subsequent periods are recognized as deferred income and in the period for recognizing the relevant costs, expenses or losses, included in profit or loss for the current period or offset against the relevant costs. Government grants related to income as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred are directly included in profit or loss for the current period or offset against the relevant costs. 4. Government grants related to the daily operations of the Company are recognized in other income or offset against the relevant costs and expenses depending on the nature of the economic business. Government grants not related to the daily operations of the Company are recognized in non-operating income or expenses. 5. Accounting treatment of policy preferential loans and interest subsidies (1) If the Ministry of Finance appropriates the interest subsidies to the lending bank, who then grants 107 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report the loan to the Company at the policy preferential rate, the loan is stated as the amount actually received, and the borrowing cost is calculated according to the principal of the loan and the policy preferential rate. (2) If the Ministry of Finance directly appropriates the interest subsidies to the Company, the interest subsidies are offset against the borrowing cost. 37. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities √ Applicable□ N/A 1. The difference between the tax base of an asset or liability and its book value (or in case of an item not recognized as an asset or liability whose tax base can be determined according to the applicable tax law, the difference between its tax base and book value) is recognized as a deferred tax asset or deferred tax liability according to the tax rate applicable to the period in which the asset or liability is expected to be recovered or settled. 2. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent of the amount of income tax payable that will be available in future periods against which deductible temporary differences are deductible. At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets not recognized in prior periods are recognized if there’s conclusive evidence that it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available in future periods against which the deductible temporary differences are deductible. 3. At the balance sheet date, the book value of deferred tax assets is reviewed and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available in future periods to allow the benefit of the deferred tax assets to be utilized. If it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available, the reduced amount is reversed. 4. The income taxes and deferred taxes are included in profit or loss for the current period as income tax expenses or gains, except the income taxes arising from any: (1) business combination; or (2) transaction or event directly recognized in owners’ equity. 5. The Company presents deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities meeting all of the following conditions as net amounts after offsetting: (1) the Company has the legal right to settle the current tax assets and current tax liabilities on a net basis; and (2) the deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are related to the income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxation subject, or are not related to the same taxation subject but in every significant future period for reversing deferred income tax assets and liabilities, the involved taxation subjects intend to settle the total current income tax asset and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously. 38. Leases √ Applicable□ N/A Determination basis and accounting method for simplified accounting of short-term lease and low- value assets lease as the lessee √ Applicable□ N/A On the lease inception date, the Company recognizes a lease with a lease term of not more than 12 months and not containing an option as a short-term lease, and recognizes a low-value assets lease for a lease in which individually leased assets have a low value when they are new. If the Company subleases or expects to sublease the leased asset, the original lease is not recognized as a low-value assets lease. For short-term leases and low-value assets leases, the Company recognizes lease payment in the costs of relevant assets or the profit or loss for the current period by using the straight-line method in each period during the lease term. Except for short-term leases and low-value assets leases subject to simplified treatment above, on the lease inception date, the Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases. (1) Use right assets Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost; the cost includes: 1) initial measurement amount of leased liabilities; 2) lease payments paid on or prior to the commencement of the lease term, net of the lease incentives (if any) received; 3) initial direct expenses incurred by the lessee; and 4) costs expected to be incurred by the lessee for dismantling and removing the leased assets, restoring the place of the leased assets, or restoring the leased assets to the state provided under lease provisions. 108 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report The Company depreciates right-of-use assets by using the straight-line method. If there is reasonable certainty that the lessee will obtain ownership of the leased asset by the end of the lease term, the Company depreciates the leased asset over its service life. If there is no reasonable certainty that the lessee will obtain ownership of the leased asset by the end of the lease term, the Company depreciates the leased asset over the shorter of the lease term and its remaining service life. (2) Lease liabilities On the lease inception date, the Company recognizes the present value of lease payments not paid as lease liabilities. The interest rate implicit in the lease is used as the discount rate for calculating the present value of the lease payments; if the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be determined, the incremental borrowing interest rate of the Company is used as the discount rate. The difference between the lease payments and the present value thereof is considered as unrecognized finance charges; in each period during the lease term, interest expenses are recognized in the profit or loss for the current period according to the discount rate of the present value of recognized lease payments. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of lease liabilities are recognized in the profit or loss for the current period when the actually arise. Where, after the lease inception date, there are changes in the substantially fixed payment, the payables expected on the basis of the residual value of the guarantee, the index or ratio used for determining the lease payment, the evaluation results or actual exercising of the purchase option, renewal option or lease termination option, the Company re-measures the lease liability as per the present value of the lease payment after the change, and adjust the book value of the right-of-use assets accordingly. Where the book value of the use right asset has been reduced to zero, but the lease liability still needs to be further reduced, the Company includes the residual amount in the current profit or loss. Categorization standard and accounting method for leases as the lessor √ Applicable□ N/A On the lease inception date, the Company classifies a lease in which almost all the risks and rewards related to the ownership of the leased asset have been substantially transferred as a finance lease, and recognizes all other leases as operating leases. Operating lease In each period during the lease term, the Company recognizes lease payments as rental incomes by using the straight-line method; initial direct expenses incurred are capitalized, and amortized on the same basis for recognizing lease incomes for recognizing in the profit or loss for each period. The variable lease payments acquired by the Company that are related to operating leases and not recognized in lease payments are recognized in the profit or loss for the current period when they actually occur. 39.

Risks associated with financial instruments 1. Risks associated with financial instruments √ Applicable□ N/A The Company’s risk management objectives are to achieve a proper balance between risks and yield, minimize the adverse impacts of risks on the Company’s operation performance, and maximize the benefits to the shareholders and other stakeholders. Based on these risk management objectives, the Company’s basic risk management strategy is to identify and analyze its exposure to various risks, establish an appropriate minimum tolerance to risk, implement risk management, and monitor regularly and effectively exposures to ensure the risks are monitored at a certain level. The Company is exposed to various risks associated with financial instruments in its daily routines, primarily including credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The management has reviewed and approved policies to manage these risks, summarized as below. (I) Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a party of the financial instrument will default on its obligations resulting in financial loss to the counter-party. 1. Management of credit risk (1) Evaluation of credit risk The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether the credit risk of the underlying financial instruments has increased significantly since initial recognition. In determining whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company considers reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue additional cost or effort, including quantitative and qualitative analysis based on historical data, ranking of external credit risks and forward-looking information. The Company compares the risk of a default occurring on a financial instrument as at the balance sheet date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition based on individual financial instruments or a group of financial instruments with similar credit risk characteristic, to determine the change of the risk of a default occurring on a financial instrument over the expected life. 180 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report The Company considers the credit risk of financial instruments has increased significantly when one or more of the following quantitative and qualitative criteria are met: 1) The quantitative criterion primarily refers to a certain percentage of increase in the probability of default over the remaining life of the financial instruments as of the balance sheet date when compared with that at initial recognition of the financial instruments; 2) The qualitative criterion includes, inter alia, adverse material changes in business or financial conditions that are expected to cause a significant decrease in the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations, and an actual or expected significant adverse change in the technological, market, economic, or legal environment of the debtor that results in a significant decrease in the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations. (2) Definition of defaulted or credit-impaired assets A financial asset is defined as defaulted when the financial instrument meets one or more conditions stated as below, and the criterion of defining defaulted asset is consistent with that of defining credit- impaired asset: 1) significant financial difficulty of the debtor; 2) a breach of contract terms with binding force by the debtor; 3) it is becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization; 4) the creditor of the debtor, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the debtor’s financial difficulty, has granted to the debtor a concession that the creditor would not otherwise consider. 2. Measurement of ECL Key parameters to measure ECL include the probability of default, loss given default and the exposure at default. The Company established models of the probability of default, loss given default and the exposure at default on the basis of qualitative analysis of historical statistical data (such as counter- party ranking, guarantee methods, collateral category, and repayment way) and forward-looking information. 3. Refer to VII.4, VII.5, VII.6, VII.7, VII.9, and VII.16 of Section X for details of the reconciliation of the opening balance and the closing balance of provision for impairment of financial instruments. 4. Credit risk exposure and credit risk concentration The Company’s credit risk is primarily from monetary funds and receivables. In order to control the risks associated with aforementioned items, the Company has taken the following measures. (1) Monetary funds The credit risk of the Company is limited because the Company has deposited bank deposits and other monetary funds in banks with high credit ratings. (2) Receivables and contract assets The Company regularly evaluates the creditworthiness of its customers with deals on credit, and selects to deal with approved and creditworthy customers subject to the results of the credit assessment by monitoring the balance of its receivables, so as to ensure that the Company is not exposed to significant risk of bad debt. No collateral is required since the Company only deals with third parties that are approved and creditworthy. The concentrated credit risks are managed by customers. As of June 30, 2024, the Company is exposed to a certain concentration of credit risks, as the Company’s accounts receivable and contract assets from top 5 customers have accounted for 70.16% of the total balance of accounts receivable (December 31, 2023: 59.01%). The Company held no collateral or other credit ranking measures for the balance of accounts receivable and contract assets. The maximum exposure to the Company is the book value of each financial asset in the balance sheet. (II) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company is in shortage of funds to perform obligations that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Liquidity risk may arise from an inability to sell a financial asset at fair value as soon as possible, a counter-party’s inability to pay its contractual liabilities, the accelerated maturity of liabilities, or an inability to generate expected cash flows. 181 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report In order to control this risk, the Company balances the continuity and flexibility of financing by using various financing measures such as notes settlement and bank loans comprehensively and adopting both long-term and short-term financing methods to optimize the financing structure. The Company has received credit facilities from a number of commercial banks to satisfy its working capital requirements and capital expenditures.

Market risk mainly includes interest rate risk and currency risk. 1. Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to the risk of fair value interest rate due to financial instruments with a fixed interest rate and to the risk of cash value interest rate due to financial instruments with a floating interest rate. The Company determines the proportion between the fixed-rate financial instruments and the floating-rate financial instruments based on market conditions, and maintains appropriate portfolios of financial instruments through regular review and monitoring. The cash flow interest rate risk exposed to the Company relates primarily to the Company’s floating-rate interest-bearing bank borrowings. 182 / 204 2024 Semiannual Report As at June 30, 2024, the principal of the Company’s floating-rate interest-bearing bank borrowings amounted to RMB 528,840,183.03 (December 31, 2023: RMB 464,442,238.44). On the basis of the assumption that the interest rate has changed 50 basic points, where all other variables are held constant, it will bring no material impacts on the Company’s total profits and shareholders’ equity. 2. Currency risk Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s exposure to the currency risk is primarily associated with the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities dominated in foreign currencies. If the monetary assets and liabilities dominated in foreign currencies are imbalanced in a short time, the Company will purchase and sell foreign currencies at the market exchange rate to keep the net risk exposure acceptable. The closing balance of the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities dominated in foreign currencies are disclosed in VII.81 of Section X in details. 2.
