III Management Discussion and Analysis
I. Principal activities of the Company during the Reporting Period(I) Industry overview and industry positionThe industry in which the Company operates is the paper making and paper product industry. After decades ofdevelopment, the Company has developed into a large modern conglomerate principally engaged in pulp productionand paper making. Its key indicators in respect of economic efficiency have been in a leading position in the industryfor more than 20 years in a row. The Company has been on the Fortune 500 China list for 13 consecutive years.Taking“revitalising the Chinese papermaking industry”as its mission, the Company has been adhering to its greendevelopment philosophy, committing itself to implementing a pulp and paper integration strategy and promoting theintegrated development in the industry chain and the value chain. The Company has established 6 production bases in,among others, Shandong, Guangdong, Hubei, Jiangxi and Jilin with annual pulp and paper production capacity of morethan 11 million tonnes. It is the first large-scale integrated pulp and paper company in China that achieves a balancebetween pulp and paper production.In the first half of 2022, affected by factors such as the evolution of public health events, the changing internationalpolitical landscape and high inflation, commodity prices and international logistics prices surged, resulting in asignificant increase in operating costs of papermaking companies. In the downstream market, the price transmissionmechanism did not work due to weak demand in the domestic market, resulting in lower machine-made paper pricesthan the corresponding period of the prior year, and limiting the scope for corporate earnings. According to the NationalBureau of Statistics of China, the total profit of the paper making and paper product industry from January to June 2022amounted to RMB25.99 billion, representing a year-on-year decrease of 46.2%. Recently, large pulp companies such asArauco in Chile had announced their expansion and production plans, which would be expected to mitigate the pressureon pulp supply. In addition, raw material prices would be expected to fall due to the global tightening of monetary policyand declining inflation. At the same time, with the epidemic under better control and the implementation of the policiesto stabilise growth in China, domestic demand would improve. It was expected that the papermaking industry wouldrebound gradually with recovery in profitability for the industry.Although the complex and changing external environment increased the difficulty factor of corporate development,the Company consolidated its profitability by strengthening its internal management, optimising its cost structure,checking raw material cost hikes and seizing opportunities in overseas markets. During the reporting period, theCompany recorded machine-made paper production of 2.58 million tonnes and sales of 2.69 million tonnes, revenue ofRMB16,676 million and total profit of RMB275 million.

III Management Discussion and Analysis
X. Structured entities controlled by the Company
Applicable √ Not applicableXI. Risk factors of the Company and the measures to be taken
1. Macroeconomic and policy risk
As a basic raw materials industry, the papermaking industry is supported by national industry policies in many ways. Itsprosperity is closely related to national macroeconomic policies. With a view to improving industry structure, enhancingproduct technology standard, energy saving and emission reduction, and eliminating outdated production capacityrelevant departments have issued the Policy on the Development of Papermaking Industry to promote the high-qualitydevelopment of the papermaking industry. If the support of relevant national industrial policies is weakened in the futureor the above-mentioned industrial policies, or economic policies such as fiscal, financial, taxation, and import and exportpolicies are adjusted, the operation and development of the Company will be affected.The Company pays attention to various policies and regulations of relevant industries in China in a timely manner, andactively adjusts its business development strategy in a timely manner based on the policy orientation. While focusingon the development of its principal activities, i.e. pulp production and paper making, the Company adheres to itsinnovation-driven strategy and comprehensively optimise its industrial structure and regional layout. thus ensuringthat the development of its principal activities is in compliance with the requirements of the policies of the industries,and realising steady growth in its operating results. The Company will also strengthen the financial information systemconstruction, regulate financial management, expand financing channels, lower capital cost and strengthen its aversioncapability against macro-economic risk.
2. Environmental protection risk
The paper making industry is a heavily polluting industry listed by the Ministry of Environmental Protection. As China’secological civilisation construction enters a critical period of focusing on carbon reduction, promoting synergy ofpollution reduction and carbon reduction, promoting comprehensive green transformation of economic and socialdevelopment, and realising the improvement of ecological environment quality from quantitative changes to qualitativechanges, relevant departments have successively formulated and issued a series of policies such as Guiding Opinionson Accelerating the Establishment of a Sound Economic System with Green, Low-carbon and Circular Development, theAnnouncement on Adjusting the Catalogue of Prohibited Products in Processing Trade, the 14th Five-Year Plan for theImplementation of National Clean Production, and the Implementation Plan for Carbon Peaking in the Industrial Sector.Environmental protection requirements are becoming more and more stringent. With the higher national environmentalprotection standards, the Company further increases its investment in pollution governance, which will increase theCompany’s operating costs in the short term.The Company always adheres to the development idea of“placing green development and environmental protectionas its priority”, widely adopts new technologies for energy saving and emission reduction, fully implements cleanproduction and strives to achieve its waste emission target. In recent years, the Company has invested RMB8,000million in total, and actively supported the construction of projects such as alkali recycling, middle water treatment,and middle water reuse. Relying on technological innovation, the Company comprehensively carries out environmentalprotection governance. At present, the Company adopts the world’s most advanced“ultrafiltration membrane + reverseosmosis membrane”technology to complete the reclaimed water recycling membrane treatment project. The reclaimedwater recycle rate reaches more than 75% and the reclaimed water quality meets drinking water standards. At thesame time, the Company actively explores the comprehensive utilisation of innovative resources and industrial recyclingdevelopment models, and built three major circular economy ecological chains of“resources-products-renewableresources”, further improving its green level.

III Management Discussion and Analysis
XI. Risk factors of the Company and the measures to be taken (Cont’d)
3. Risk of price fluctuation of raw materials
Wood pulp and wood clips are the major raw materials of the industry. If the prices of wood pulp and wood chipsfluctuate sharply in the future, they will bring upward pressure on the production costs of enterprises, which will have acertain impact on the normal production and operation of enterprises in the industry.The Company strives to implement the development strategy of pulp and paper integration. At present, its productioncapacity of pulp has reached 4.3 million tonnes, and it has cultivated a strong self-sufficiency of wood pulp. At the sametime, the Company has established a more comprehensive supply chain management mechanism, and practiced sourceprocurement to reduce procurement costs. The Company continued to improve its production technology, improved theutilisation rate of raw materials, and optimised operational efficiency to reduce the risk of raw material price fluctuationsto the Company.
4. Risk of intensifying market competition
As a strategic and fundamental industry closely related to the national economy, the papermaking industry continuouslymatures along with the steady development of the Chinese economy. Although the papermaking industry hasaccelerated the elimination of outdated production capacity after several rounds of environmental protection policiesand its structure has been optimised, there remains the phenomena of a large number of enterprises, excess andscattered production capacity, a large number of mid- and low-end products, and product homogeneity. In addition,technological upgrade in the papermaking industry is relatively rapid, and related products are replaced quite often, thuscausing a fierce market competition.The Company actively studies the development trend of the industry, correctly grasps the market dynamics in atimely manner, and reduces its production costs and achieves increased production and efficiency by adjusting andoptimising technological processes. It adheres to being market-oriented, enhances its R&D and innovation capabilities,produces products that meet market demand, and enriches products types and application fields. It also improves theprofessional level of its sales staff, expands sales channels, strengthens business cooperation with customers, providescomprehensive customer services, and increases its market share.
5. Risk on financial leasing business
The Company may suffer from loss if the lessees of its financial leasing business cannot make full rental payment ontime due to any reason and there are abuses on equipment or any other short-term behaviour. Although the risk of suchrental being unrecoverable is minimal, the Company will also make bad debt provision as required under its accountingpolicy. If such amounts cannot be recovered on time, the Company may be exposed to risk of bad debts.Chenming Leasing has comprehensive risk prevention and control measures for the financial leasing business, withstrong risk resistance and low risk of default. At present, Chenming Leasing continues to implement the businessstrategy of continuous reduction which effectively put risk exposures under control.

When the amount of loss attributable to the minority shareholders ofa subsidiary exceeds the minority shareholders’ portion of the opening balance of owners’equity of the subsidiary,the excess amount shall be allocated against minority interest.
(3) Acquisition of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries
The difference between the long-term equity investments costs acquired by the acquisition of non-controllinginterests and the share of the net assets from subsidiaries from the date of acquisition or the date of combinationbased on the new shareholding ratio, as well as the difference between the proceeds from the partial disposalof the equity investment without losing control over its subsidiary and the disposal of the long-term equityinvestment corresponding to the share of the net assets of the subsidiaries from the date of acquisition or the dateof combination, is adjusted to the capital reserve (share capital premium), if the capital reserve is not sufficient,any excess is adjusted to retained earnings.
(4) Accounting treatment for loss of control over subsidiaries
For the loss of control over a subsidiary due to disposal of a portion of the equity investment or other reasons,the remaining equity is measured at fair value on the date when the control is lost. The difference arising fromthe sum of consideration received for disposal of equity interest and the fair value of remaining equity interestover the sun of the share of the carrying amount of net assets of the former subsidiary calculated continuouslyfrom the purchase date based on the shareholding percentage before disposal and the goodwill is recognised asinvestment income in the period when the control is lost.Other comprehensive income related to equity investment in the former subsidiary shall be transferred to currentprofit or loss at the time when the control is lost, except for other comprehensive income arising from changes innet assets or net liabilities due to remeasurement of defined benefit plan by the investee.

9. Foreign currency operations and translation of statements denominated in foreign currency
(1) Foreign currency operations
The foreign currency operations of the Company are translated into the functional currency at the prevailing spotexchange rate on the date of exchange.On the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items shall be translated at the spot exchange rate onthe balance sheet date. The exchange difference arising from the difference between the spot exchange rateon the balance sheet date and the spot exchange rate upon initial recognition or the last balance sheet date willbe recognised in profit or loss for the period. The foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historicalcost shall still be measured by the functional currency translated at the spot exchange rate on the date of thetransaction. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value are translated at the spot exchangerate on the date of determination of the fair value. The difference between the amounts of the functional currencybefore and after the translation will be recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income for the periodbased on the nature of the non-monetary items.
(2) Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currency
When translating the financial statements denominated in foreign currency of overseas subsidiaries, assets andliabilities on the balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date;owner’s equity items except for“retained profit”are translated at the spot exchange rates at the dates on whichsuch items arose.Income and expenses items in the profit or loss statement are translated at the prevailing spot exchange rate onthe transaction date.All items in the cash flow statements shall be translated at the prevailing spot exchange rate on the date thatthe cash flow transaction occurred. Effects arising from changes of exchange rate on cash shall be presentedseparately as the“effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents”item in the cash flowstatements.The differences arising from translation of financial statements shall be included in the“other comprehensiveincome” item in owners’ equity in the balance sheet.On disposal of foreign operations and loss of control, exchange differences arising from the translation of financialstatements denominated in foreign currencies related to the disposed foreign operations which has been includedin owners’equity in the balance sheet, shall be transferred to profit or loss in whole or in proportionate share in theperiod in which the disposal took place.

10. Financial instruments
A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one party and a financial liability or equity instrumentof another party.
(1) Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments
Financial asset or financial liability will be recognised when the Company became one of the parties under afinancial instrument contract.Financial asset that satisfied any of the following criteria shall be derecognised:
the contract right to receive the cash flows of the financial asset has terminated;the financial asset has been transferred and meets the derecognition criteria for the transfer of financialasset as described below.A financial liability (or a part thereof) is derecognised only when the present obligation is discharged in full or inpart. If an agreement is entered between the Company (debtor) and a creditor to replace the existing financialliabilities with new financial liabilities, and the contractual terms of the new financial liabilities are substantiallydifferent from those of the existing financial liabilities, the existing financial liabilities shall be derecognised and thenew financial liabilities shall be recognised.Conventionally traded financial assets shall be recognised and derecognised at the trading date.
(2) Classification and measurement of financial assets
The Company classifies the financial assets according to the business model for managing the financial assetsand characteristics of the contractual cash flows as follows: financial assets measured at amortised cost, financialassets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, and financial assets measured at fair valuethrough profit or loss.Financial assets measured at amortised costA financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designatedat fair value through other comprehensive income:
The Company’s business model for managing such financial assets is to collect contractual cash flows;The contractual terms of the financial asset stipulate that cash flows generated on specific dates are solelypayments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.Subsequent to initial recognition, such financial assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interestmethod. A gain or loss on a financial asset that is measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedgingrelationship shall be recognised in profit or loss for the current period when the financial asset is derecognised,amortised using the effective interest method or with impairment recognised.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive incomeA financial asset is classified as measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it meets both of thefollowing conditions and is not designated at fair value through profit or loss:
The Company’s business model for managing such financial assets is achieved both by collecting collectcontractual cash flows and selling such financial assets;The contractual terms of the financial asset stipulate that cash flows generated on specific dates are solelypayments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.Subsequent to initial recognition, such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest calculatedusing the effective interest method, impairment losses or gains and foreign exchange gains and losses arerecognised in profit or loss for the current period, and other gains or losses are recognised in other comprehensiveincome. On derecognition, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income isreclassified from other comprehensive income to profit or loss.Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or lossThe Company classifies the financial assets other than those measured at amortised cost and measured at fairvalue through other comprehensive income as financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. Uponinitial recognition, the Company irrevocably designates certain financial assets that are required to be measuredat amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income as financial assets measured at fair valuethrough profit or loss in order to eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatch.Upon initial recognition, such financial assets are measured at fair value. Except for those held for hedgingpurposes, gains or losses (including interests and dividend income) arising from such financial assets arerecognised in the profit or loss for the current period.The business model for managing financial assets refers to how the Company manages its financial assets inorder to generate cash flows. That is, the Company’s business model determines whether cash flows will resultfrom collecting contractual cash flows, selling financial assets or both. The Company determines the businessmodel for managing financial assets on the basis of objective facts and specific business objectives for managingfinancial assets determined by key management personnel.The Company assesses the characteristics of the contractual cash flows of financial assets to determine whetherthe contractual cash flows generated by the relevant financial assets on a specific date are solely payments ofprincipal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The principal refers to the fair value of the financialassets at the initial recognition. Interest includes consideration for the time value of money, for the credit riskassociated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lendingrisks, costs and profits. In addition, the Company evaluates the contractual terms that may result in a change inthe time distribution or amount of contractual cash flows from a financial asset to determine whether it meets therequirements of the above contractual cash flow characteristics.

All affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change inthe business model where the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets; otherwise,financial assets shall not be reclassified after initial recognition.Financial assets are measured at fair value upon initial recognition. For financial assets measured at fair valuethrough profit or loss, relevant transaction costs are directly recognised in profit or loss for the current period.For other categories of financial assets, relevant transaction costs are included in the amount initially recognised.Accounts receivable or notes receivable arising from sales of goods or rendering services, without significantfinancing component are initially recognised based on the transaction price expected to be entitled by theCompany.
(3) Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
At initial recognition, financial liabilities of the Company are classified as financial liabilities measured at fair valuethrough profit or loss and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost. For financial liabilities not classifiedas measured at fair value through profit or loss, relevant transaction costs are included in the amount initiallyrecognised.Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or lossFinancial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss comprise held-for-trading financial liabilities andfinancial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. Such financial liabilitiesare subsequently measured at fair value, and the gains or losses from the change in fair value and the dividend orinterest expenses related to the financial liabilities are included in the profit or loss of the current period.Financial liabilities measured at amortised costOther financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method,and the gains or losses arising from derecognition or amortisation are recognised in profit or loss for the currentperiod.Classification between financial liabilities and equity instrumentsA financial liability is a liability if:
it has a contractual obligation to pay in cash or other financial assets to other parties.it has a contractual obligation to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities under potential adverse
condition with other parties. it is a non-derivative instrument contract which will or may be settled with the entity’s own equityinstruments, and the entity will deliver a variable number of its own equity instruments according to suchcontract. it is a derivative instrument contract which will or may be settled with the entity’s own equity instruments,except for a derivative instrument contract that exchanges a fixed amount of cash or other financial assetwith a fixed number of its own equity instruments.

Classification between financial liabilities and equity instruments(Cont’d)Equity instruments are any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting allof its liabilities.If the Company cannot unconditionally avoid the performance of a contractual obligation by paying cash ordelivering other financial assets, the contractual obligation meets the definition of financial liabilities.Where a financial instrument must or may be settled with the Company’s own equity instruments, the Company’sown equity instruments used to settle such instrument should be considered as to whether it is as a substitutefor cash or other financial assets or for the purpose of enabling the holder of the instrument to be entitled to theremaining interest in the assets of the issuer after deducting all of its liabilities. For the former, it is a financialliability of the Company; for the latter, it is the Company’s own equity instruments.
(4) Fair value of financial instruments
The methods for determining the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities are set out in Note V. 41.
(5) Impairment of financial assets
The Company makes provision for impairment based on expected credit losses (ECLs) on the following items:
Financial assets measured at amortised cost;Receivables and debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income;Contract assets as defined in the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 – Revenue;Lease receivables;Financial guarantee contracts (except those measured at fair value through profit or loss or formed by continuinginvolvement of transferred financial assets or the transfer does not qualify for derecognition).

’d)Measurement of ECLsECLs are the weighted average of credit losses of financial instruments weighted by the risk of default. Creditlosses refer to the difference between all contractual cash flows receivable according to the contract anddiscounted according to the original effective interest rate and all cash flows expected to be received, i.e. thepresent value of all cash shortages.The Company takes into account reasonable and well-founded information such as past events, current conditionsand forecasts of future economic conditions, and calculates the probability-weighted amount of the present valueof the difference between the cash flows receivable from the contract and the cash flows expected to be receivedweighted by the risk of default.The Company measures ECLs of financial instruments at different stages. If the credit risk of the financialinstrument did not increase significantly upon initial recognition, it is at the first stage, and the Company makesprovision for impairment based on the ECLs within the next 12 months; if the credit risk of a financial instrumentincreased significantly upon initial recognition but has not yet incurred credit impairment, it is at the second stage,and the Company makes provision for impairment based on the lifetime ECLs of the instrument; if the financialinstrument incurred credit impairment upon initial recognition, it is at the third stage, and the Company makesprovision for impairment based on the lifetime ECLs of the instrument.For financial instruments with low credit risk on the balance sheet date, the Company assumes that the creditrisk did not increase significantly upon initial recognition, and makes provision for impairment based on the ECLswithin the next 12 months.Lifetime ECLs represent the ECLs resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financialinstrument. The 12-month ECLs are the ECLs resulting from possible default events on a financial instrumentwithin 12 months (or a shorter period if the expected life of the financial instrument is less than 12 months) afterthe balance sheet date, and is a portion of lifetime ECLs.The maximum period to be considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which theCompany is exposed to credit risk, including renewal options.For the financial instruments at the first and second stages and with low credit risks, the Company calculatesthe interest income based on the book balance and the effective interest rate before deducting the impairmentprovisions. For financial instruments at the third stage, interest income is calculated based on the amortised costafter deducting impairment provisions made from the book balance and the effective interest rate.

’d)Assessment of significant increase in credit riskIn assessing whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly upon initial recognition, theCompany compares the risk of default of the financial instrument at the balance sheet date with that at the dateof initial recognition to determine the relative change in risk of default within the expected lifetime of the financialinstrument.In determining whether the credit risk has increased significantly upon initial recognition, the Company considersreasonable and well-founded information, including forward-looking information, which can be obtained withoutunnecessary extra costs or efforts. Information considered by the Company includes:
The debtor’s failure to make payments of principal and interest on their contractually due dates;An actual or expected significant deterioration in a financial instrument’s external or internal credit rating (if any);An actual or expected significant deterioration in the operating results of the debtor;Existing or expected changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment that have a significantadverse effect on the debtor’s ability to meet its obligation to the Company.Depending on the nature of the financial instruments, the Company assesses whether there has been a significantincrease in credit risk on either an individual basis or a collective basis. When the assessment is performed on acollective basis, the financial instruments are grouped based on their common credit risk characteristics, such aspast due information and credit risk ratings.The Company determines that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30days past due.
Credit-impaired financial assets
At balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether financial assets measured at amortised cost and debtinvestments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are credit-impaired. A financial asset iscredit-impaired when one or more events that have an adverse effect on the estimated future cash flows of thefinancial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observableevents:
Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;A breach of contract by the debtor, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;For economic or contractual reasons relating to the debtor’s financial difficulty, the Company having granted tothe debtor a concession that would not otherwise consider;It becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties of the issuer ordebtor.

’d)Presentation of provisions for ECLsECLs are remeasured at each balance sheet date to reflect changes in the financial instrument’s credit risk uponinitial recognition. Any change in the ECL amount is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss forthe current period. For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the provisions of impairment is deductedfrom the carrying amount of the financial assets presented in the balance sheet; for debt investments at fair valuethrough other comprehensive income, the Company makes provisions of impairment in other comprehensiveincome without reducing the carrying amount of the financial asset.Write-offsThe book balance of a financial asset is directly written off to the extent that there is no realistic prospect ofrecovery of the contractual cash flows of the financial asset (either partially or in full). Such write-off constitutesderecognition of such financial asset. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtordoes not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subjectto the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities inorder to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.If a write-off of financial assets is subsequently recovered, the recovery is credited to profit or loss in the period inwhich the recovery occurs.
(6) Transfer of financial assets
Transfer of financial assets refers to the transfer or delivery of financial assets to another party other than theissuer of such financial assets (the transferee).If the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset to thetransferee, the financial asset shall be derecognised. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewardsof ownership of a financial asset, the financial asset shall not be derecognised.If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financialasset, it accounts for the transaction as follows: if the Company does not retain control, it derecognises thefinancial asset and recognises any resulting assets or liabilities; if the control over the financial asset is not waived,the relevant financial asset is recognised according to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferredfinancial asset and the relevant liability is recognised accordingly.
(7) Offset of financial assets and financial liabilities
If the Company owns the legitimate rights of offsetting the recognised financial assets and financial liabilities,which are enforceable currently, and the Company plans to realise the financial assets or to clear off the financialliabilities on a net amount basis or simultaneously, the net amount of financial assets and financial liabilities shallbe presented in the balance sheet upon offsetting. Otherwise, financial assets and financial liabilities are presentedseparately in the balance sheet without offsetting.

(1) Classification of inventories
Inventories of the Company mainly include raw materials, work in progress, goods in stock, development productsand consumable biological assets, etc.
(2) Pricing of inventories dispatched
Inventories of the Company are measured at their actual cost when obtained. Cost of raw materials, goods instock and others will be calculated with weighted average method when being dispatched.Consumable biological assets refer to biological assets held-for-sale which include growing timber. Consumablebiological assets without a stock are stated at historical cost at initial recognition, and subsequently measuredat fair value when there is a stock. Changes in fair values shall be recognised as profit or loss in the currentperiod. The cost of self-planting, self-cultivating consumable biological assets is the necessary expensesdirectly attributable to such assets prior to canopy closure, including borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.Subsequent expenses such as maintenance cost incurred after canopy closure shall be included in profit or lossfor the current period.The cost of consumable biological assets shall, at the time of harvest or disposal, be carried forward at carryingamount using the stock volume proportion method.

Net realisable value of inventories refers to the amount of the estimated price of inventories less the estimated costincurred upon completion, estimated sales expenses and taxes and levies. The realisable value of inventories shallbe determined on the basis of definite evidence, purpose of holding the inventories and effect of after-balance-sheet-date events.At the balance sheet date, provision for inventory impairment is made when the cost is higher than the netrealisable value. The Company usually make provision for inventory impairment based on categories of inventories.At the balance sheet date, in case the factors causing inventory impairment no longer exists, the original provisionfor inventory impairment shall be reversed.
(4) Inventory stock taking system
The Company implements permanent inventory system as its inventory stock taking system.
(5) Amortisation of low-value consumables and packaging materials
The low-value consumables of the Group are amortised when issued for use.Packaging materials for turnover are amortised when issued for use.
16. Contract assets
Contract assets are the Company’s right to consideration in exchange for goods that the Company has transferred tocustomers when that right is conditioned on something other than the passage of time. The Company’s unconditionalright to receive consideration from customers (only the passage of time is required) is accounted for as accountsreceivable.The methods for determination and accounting treatment of the ECLs on contract assets are detailed in Note V. 10Financial instruments.
17. Contract costs
Contract costs are either the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer or the costs to fulfil a contractwith a customer.Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that the Company incurs to obtain a contract with a customerthat it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained e.g. an incremental sales commission. TheCompany recognises as an asset the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if it expects to recoverthose costs. Other costs of obtaining a contract are expensed when incurred.If the costs to fulfil a contract with a customer are not within the scope of inventories or other accounting standards,the Company recognises an asset from the costs incurred to fulfil a contract only if those costs meet all of the followingcriteria:
the costs relate directly to an existing contract or to a specifically identifiable anticipated contract, including direct
labour, direct materials, allocations of overheads (or similar costs), costs that are explicitly chargeable to thecustomer and other costs that are incurred only because the Group entered into the contract;the costs generate or enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy)
performance obligations in the future; the costs are expected to be recovered.

Assets recognised for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and assets recognised for the costs to fulfil acontract (the“assets related to contract costs”) are amortised on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transferto the customer of the goods or services to which the assets relate and recognised in profit or loss for the currentperiod. An expense is recognised when incurred if the amortisation period is less than one year.The Company recognises an impairment loss in profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of an asset relatedto contract costs exceeds:
remaining amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services towhich the asset relates; the cost estimated to be happened for the transfer of related goods or services.The costs of contract performance recognised as assets, if the amortisation period is less than one year or a normaloperating cycle upon the initial recognition, are presented as“Inventories”item, and if the amortisation period is morethan one year or a normal operating cycle upon the initial recognition, are presented as“Other non-current assets” item.The contract obtaining costs recognised as assets, if the amortisation period is less than one year or a normal operatingcycle upon the initial recognition, are presented as“Other current assets”item, and if the amortisation period is morethan one year or a normal operating cycle upon the initial recognition, are presented as“Other non-current assets” item.
18. Assets held for sale
A non-current asset or disposal group is classified as held for sale if its carrying amount will be recovered principallythrough a sale transaction (including a non-monetary asset exchange with commercial substance) rather than throughcontinuing use.The aforesaid non-current asset does not include the investment property subsequently measured at fair value, thebiological assets measured at the net amount of the fair value deducting the sales expense, the assets generated fromremuneration, financial assets, deferred income tax assets and rights from insurance contract.A disposal group is a group of assets to be disposed of together as a whole by sale or other means in a transaction, andliabilities directly associated with those assets that will be transferred in the transaction. In certain circumstances, thedisposal group includes the goodwill acquired in the business combination.A non-current asset or a disposal group is classified as held for sale if it meets all of the following conditions: thenoncurrent asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms thatare usual and customary for sales of such asset or disposal group; the sale is highly probable, i.e. a sale plan has beenresolved and a firm purchase commitment has been obtained, and the sale is expected to be completed within one year.When the Group loses control of a subsidiary due to reasons such as disposal of investment in a subsidiary, regardlessof whether the Group retains part of the equity investment after the disposal, when the investment in a subsidiaryintended to be disposed of meets the conditions for classification as held for sale, the investment in a subsidiary isclassified as held for sale as a whole in the separate financial statements, and all assets and liabilities of the subsidiaryare classified as held for sale in the consolidated financial statements.When the non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale are initially measured or remeasured at the balance sheetdate, the excess of the carrying amount over the net amount of the fair value less selling expenses is recognised asasset impairment loss. For the amount of impairment loss recognised on disposal groups held for sale, the carryingamount of the goodwill of the disposal group shall be offset against first, and then be offset against the carrying amountof non-current assets according to the proportion of the carrying amount of non-current assets.

The carrying amount of goodwill written off shall not be reversed.Non-current assets held for sale and assets in disposal group held for sale are not depreciated or amortised. Interestand other expenses of a disposal group classified as held for sale continue to be recognised. For all or part of aninvestment in an associate or a joint venture that is classified as held for sale, the part of being classified as held for saleshall cease to be accounted for using the equity method, while any retained portion (not classified as held for sale) shallcontinue to be accounted for using the equity method; The Group ceases to use the equity method from the date whenthe Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate or a joint venture.If a non-current asset or disposal group is classified as held for sale but subsequently no longer meets the criteria forbeing classified as held for sale, the Group shall cease to classify it as held for sale and measure it at the lower of:

Long-term equity investments include the equity investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. Associatesof the Company are those investees that the Company imposes significant influence over.
(1) Determination of initial investment cost
Long-term equity investments acquired through business combinations: for a long-term equity investmentacquired through a business combination involving enterprises under common control, the investment cost shallbe the absorbing party’s share of the carrying amount of the owners’equity under the consolidated financialstatements of the ultimate controlling party on the date of combination. For a long-term equity investmentacquired through a business combination involving enterprises not under common control, the investment cost ofthe long-term equity investment shall be the cost of combination.Long-term equity investments acquired through other means: for a long-term equity investment acquired by cashpayment, the initial investment cost shall be the purchase cost actually paid; for a long-term equity investmentacquired by issuing equity securities, the initial investment cost shall be the fair value of equity securities issued.
(2) Subsequent measurement and method for profit or loss recognition
Investments in subsidiaries shall be accounted for using the cost method. Except for the investments which meetthe conditions of holding for sale, investments in associates and joint ventures shall be accounted for using theequity method.For a long-term equity investment accounted for using the cost method, the cash dividends or profits declared bythe investees for distribution shall be recognised as investment gains and included in profit or loss for the currentperiod, except the case of receiving the actual consideration paid for the investment or the declared but not yetdistributed cash dividends or profits which is included in the consideration.For a long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method, where the initial investment costexceeds the investor’s interest in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date, noadjustment shall be made to the investment cost of the long-term equity investment. Where the initial investmentcost is less than the investor’s interest in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisitiondate, adjustment shall be made to the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment, and the difference shallbe charged to profit or loss for the current period.Under the equity method, investment gain and other comprehensive income shall be recognised based on theCompany’s share of the net profits or losses and other comprehensive income made by the investee, respectively.Meanwhile, the carrying amount of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted. The carrying amount oflong-term equity investment shall be reduced based on the Company’s share of profit or cash dividend distributedby the investee. In respect of the other movement of net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profitdistribution of investee, the carrying amount of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted and included in thecapital reserves (other capital reserves). The Company shall recognise its share of the investee’s net profits orlosses based on the fair values of the investee’s individual separately identifiable assets at the time of acquisition,after making appropriate adjustments thereto according to the accounting policies and accounting periods of theCompany.

’d)
For additional equity investment made in order to obtain significant influence or common control over investeewithout resulted in control, the initial investment cost under the equity method shall be the aggregate of fair valueof previously held equity investment and additional investment cost on the date of transfer. For investmentsin non-trading equity instruments that were previously classified as at fair value through other comprehensiveincome, the cumulative fair value changes associated with them that were previously included in othercomprehensive income are transferred to retained earnings upon the change to the equity method of accounting.In the event of loss of common control or significant influence over investee due to partial disposal of equityinvestment, the remaining equity interest after disposal shall be accounted for according to the AccountingStandard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and measurement of Financial Instruments. The differencebetween its fair value and carrying amount shall be included in profit or loss for the current period. In respectof other comprehensive income recognised under previous equity investment using equity method, it shall beaccounted for in accordance with the same accounting treatment for direct disposal of relevant asset or liability byinvestee at the time when equity method was ceased to be used. Movement of other owners’equity related to theprevious equity investment shall be transferred to profit or loss for the current period.In the event of loss of control over investee due to partial disposal of equity investment, the remaining equityinterest which can apply common control or impose significant influence over the investee after disposal shall beaccounted for using equity method. Such remaining equity interest shall be treated as accounting for using equitymethod since it is obtained and adjustment was made accordingly. For the remaining equity interest which cannotapply common control or impose significant influence over the investee after disposal, it shall be accounted forusing the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and measurement of FinancialInstruments. The difference between its fair value and carrying amount as at the date of losing control shall beincluded in profit or loss for the current period.If the shareholding ratio of the Company is reduced due to the capital increase of other investors, and as a result,the Company loses the control of but still can apply common control or impose significant influence over theinvestee, the net asset increase due to the capital increase of the investee attributable to the Company shall berecognised according to the new shareholding ratio, and the difference with the original carrying amount of thelong-term equity investment corresponding to the shareholding ratio reduction part that should be carried forwardshall be recorded in the profit or loss for the current period; and then it shall be adjusted according to the newshareholding ratio as if equity method is used for accounting when acquiring the investment.In respect of the transactions between the Company and its associates and joint ventures, the share of unrealisedgain or loss arising from internal transactions shall be eliminated by the portion attributable to the Company.Investment gain or loss shall be recognised accordingly. However, any unrealised loss arising from internaltransactions between the Company and an investee is not eliminated to the extent that the loss is impairment lossof the transferred assets.

(3) Basis for determining the common control and significant influence on the investee
Common control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an arrangement, which relevant activities ofsuch arrangement must be decided by unanimously agreement from parties who share control. When determiningif there is any common control, it should first be identified if the arrangement is controlled by all the participantsor the group consisting of the participants, and then determined if the decision on the arranged activity can bemade only with the unanimous consent of the participants sharing the control. If all the participants or a groupof participants can only decide the relevant activities of certain arrangement through concerted action, it canbe considered that all the participants or a group of participants share common control on the arrangement. Ifthere are two or more participant groups that can collectively control certain arrangement, it does not constitutecommon control. When determining if there is any common control, the relevant protection rights will not be takeninto account.Significant influence is the power of the investor to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions ofan investee, but to fail to control or joint control the formulation of such policies together with other parties. Whendetermining if there is any significant influence on the investee, the influence of the voting shares of the investeeheld by the investor directly and indirectly and the potential voting rights held by the investor and other partieswhich are exercisable in the current period and converted to the equity of the investee, including the warrants,stock options and convertible bonds that are issued by the investee and can be converted in the current period,shall be taken into account.When the Company holds directly or indirectly through the subsidiary 20% (inclusive) to 50% of the voting sharesof the investee, it is generally considered to have significant influence on the investee, unless there is concreteevidence to prove that it cannot participate in the production and operation decision-making of the investee andcannot pose significant influence in this situation. When the Company owns less than 20% of the voting sharesof the investee, it is generally considered that it has not significantly influenced on the investee, unless there isconcrete evidence to prove that it can participate in the production and operation decision-making of the investeeand cannot pose significant influence in this situation.
(4) Held-for-sale equity investments
The equity investments to associates or joint ventures are all or partially classified as assets held for sale.The remaining equity investments that are not classified as assets held for sale shall be accounted for using equitymethod.The equity investments to associates or joint ventures already classified as held for sale no longer meet theconditions of assets held for sale shall be adjusted retroactively using equity method from the date of beingclassified as assets held for sale.
(5) Impairment test method and Impairment provision
For the method for making impairment provision for the investment in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures,please refer to Note V. 28.
21. Investment property
Investment property refers to real estate held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both. The investment propertyof the Company includes leased land use rights, land use rights held for sale after appreciation, and leased buildings.The investment property of the Company is measured initially at cost upon acquisition, and subject to depreciation oramortisation in the relevant periods according to the relevant provisions on fixed assets or intangible assets.For the method for making impairment provision for the investment property adopted cost method for subsequentmeasurement, please refer to Note V. 28.When an investment property is sold, transferred, retired or damaged, the amount of proceeds on disposal of theproperty net of the carrying amount and related tax and surcharges is recognised in profit or loss for the current period.

22. Fixed assets
(1) Conditions for recognition
Fixed assets represent the tangible assets held by the Company using in the production of goods, rendering ofservices and for operation and administrative purposes with useful life over one year.Fixed assets are recognised when it is probable that the related economic benefits will flow to the Company andthe costs can be reliably measured.The Company’s fixed assets are initially measured at the actual cost at the time of acquisition.Subsequent expenditures incurred for a fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset when it is probablethat the associated economic benefits will flow to the Company and the related cost can be reliably measured.The cost of routine repairs of fixed assets that do not qualify as capitalised subsequent expenditure is charged tocurrent profit or loss or included in the cost of the related assets in accordance with the beneficiary object whenincurred. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.
(2) Depreciation method
The Company adopts the straight-line method for depreciation. Provision for depreciation will be started when thefixed asset reaches its expected usable state, and stopped when the fixed asset is derecognised or classified as anon-current asset held for sale. Without regard to the depreciation provision, the Company determines the annualdepreciation rate by category, estimated useful lives and estimated residual value of the fixed assets as below:

(3) The impairment test method and impairment provision method of the fixed assets are set out in Note V. 28.
(4) The Company will re-check the useful lives, estimated net residual value and depreciation method of the fixed
assets at the end of each year.When there is any difference between the useful lives estimate and the originally estimated value, the usefullives of the fixed asset shall be adjusted. When there is any difference between the estimated net residual valueestimate and the originally estimated value, the estimated net residual value shall be adjusted.
(5) Disposal of fixed assets
A fixed asset is derecognised on disposal or when it is expected that there shall be no economic benefit arisingfrom using or after disposal. Where the fixed assets are sold, transferred, retired or damaged, the income receivedafter disposal after deducting the carrying amount and related taxes are recognised in profit or loss for the currentperiod.

23. Construction in progress
Construction in progress of the Company is recognised based on the actual construction cost, including all necessaryexpenditures incurred for construction projects, capitalised borrowing costs for the construction in progress before ithas reached the working condition for its intended use, and other related expenses during the construction period.A construction in progress is reclassified to fixed assets when it has reached the working condition for its intended use.The method for impairment provision of construction in progress is set out in Note V. 28.
24. Borrowing costs
(1) Recognition principle for the capitalisation of the borrowing costs
The borrowing costs incurred by the Company directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or productionof a qualifying asset will be capitalised and included in the cost of relevant asset. Other borrowing costs will berecognised as expenses when incurred according to the incurred amount, and included in the profit or loss for thecurrent period. When the borrowing costs meet all the following conditions, capitalisation shall be started:
The capital expenditure has been incurred, which includes the expenditure incurred by paying cash,transferring non-cash assets or undertaking interest-bearing liabilities for acquiring, constructing orproducing the qualifying assets; The borrowing costs have been incurred;The acquisition, construction or production activity necessary for the asset to be ready for its intended useor sale has been started.
(2) Capitalisation period of borrowing costs
When a qualifying asset acquired, constructed or produced by the Company is ready for its intended use or sale,the capitalisation of the borrowing costs shall discontinue. The borrowing costs incurred after a qualifying assetis ready for its intended use or sale shall be recognised as expenses when incurred according to the incurredamount, and included in the profit or loss for the current period.Capitalisation of borrowing costs shall be suspended during periods in which the acquisition, construction orproduction of a qualifying asset is interrupted abnormally, when the interruption is for a continuous period of morethan 3 months. The capitalisation of the borrowing costs shall be continued in the normal interruption period.
(3) Calculation methods for capitalisation rate and capitalised amount of the borrowing costs
Where funds are borrowed for a specific purpose, the amount of interest to be capitalised shall be the actualinterest expense incurred on that borrowing for the period less any bank interest earned from depositing theborrowed funds before being used into banks or any investment income on the temporary investment of thosefunds. Where funds are borrowed for general purpose, the Company shall determine the amount of interestto be capitalised on such borrowings by applying a capitalisation rate to the weighted average of the excessamounts of cumulative expenditures on the asset over and above the amounts of specific-purpose borrowings.The capitalisation rate shall be the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the general-purposeborrowings.During the capitalisation period, exchange differences on a specific purpose borrowing denominated in foreigncurrency shall be capitalised. Exchange differences related to general-purpose borrowings denominated in foreigncurrency shall be included in profit or loss for the current period.

25. Biological assets
Bearer biological assets refer to biological assets held for the purpose of producing agricultural products, providinglabour services or renting, including economic forests, firewood forests, productive livestock and draught animals.Bearer biological assets are initially measured at cost. The cost of a planted or propagated bearer biological assetincludes the expenses directly attributable to the asset and necessarily incurred before the asset is ready for its intendedproduction and operation, including the borrowing costs that are eligible for capitalisation.The management, protection and feeding costs of a biological asset subsequent to crown closure or after the asset isready for its intended production and operation are expensed and recognised in profit or loss as incurred.Depreciation of bearer biological assets is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life ofeach biological asset less its residual value.
26. Right-of-use assets
Conditions for recognition of right-of-use assetsRight-of-use assets are defined as the right of underlying assets in the lease term for the Company as a lessee.Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost at the commencement date of the lease. The cost includes the amountof the initial measurement of lease liability; lease payments made at or before the inception of the lease less any leaseincentives enjoyed; initial direct costs incurred by the Company as lessee; costs to be incurred in dismantling andremoving the underlying assets, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the conditionrequired by the terms and conditions of the lease incurred by the Company as lessee. As a lessee, the Companyrecognises and measures the costs of dismantling and restoration in accordance with the Accounting Standard forBusiness Enterprises No. 13 – Contingencies. Subsequently, the lease liability is adjusted for any remeasurement of thelease liability.Depreciation method of right-of-use assetsThe Company uses the straight-line method for depreciation. Where the Company, as a lessee, is reasonably certain toobtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, such asset is depreciated over the remaining usefullife of the leased asset. Where ownership of the lease assets during the lease term cannot be reasonably determined,right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term or the remainder of useful lives of the lease assets, whichever isshorter.For the methods of impairment test and impairment provision of right-of-use assets, please refer to Note V. 28.

27. Intangible assets
The intangible assets of the Company include land use rights, software and certificates of third party right.The intangible asset is initially measured at cost, and its useful life is determined upon acquisition. If the useful life isfinite, the intangible asset will be amortised over the estimated useful life using the amortisation method that can reflectthe estimated realisation of the economic benefits related to the asset, starting from the time when it is available for use.If it is unable to reliably determine the estimated realisation, straight-line method shall be adopted for amortisation. Theintangible assets with uncertain useful life will not be amortised.The amortisation methods for the intangible assets with finite useful life are as follows:
TypeUseful life (year)Method of amortisationRemarkLand use rights50-70Straight-line methodSoftware5-10Straight-line methodCertificates of third party right3Straight-line methodThe Company reviews the useful life and amortisation method of the intangible assets with finite useful life at the end ofeach year. If it is different from the previous estimates, the original estimates will be adjusted, and will be treated as achange in accounting estimate.If it is estimated on the balance sheet date that certain intangible asset can no longer bring future economic benefit tothe company, the carrying amount of the intangible asset will be entirely transferred into the profit or loss for the currentperiod.The impairment method for the intangible assets is set out in Note V. 28.
28. Asset impairment
Impairment of long-term equity investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, asset impairment oninvestment property, fixed assets, construction in progress, materials for project, right-of-use assets, intangible assets,goodwill and others (excluding inventories, deferred tax assets and financial assets) subsequently measured at cost isdetermined as follows:
The Company determines if there is any indication of asset impairment as at the balance sheet date. If there is anyevidence indicating that an asset may be impaired, recoverable amount shall be estimated for impairment test. Goodwillarising from business combinations, intangible assets with an indefinite useful life and intangible assets not ready foruse will be tested for impairment annually, regardless of whether there is any indication of impairment.The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and the present value of thefuture cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. The Company estimates the recoverable amount of anindividual asset. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the Company shalldetermine the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the asset belongs. The determination of an asset groupis based on whether major cash inflows generated by the asset group are independent of the cash inflows from otherassets or asset groups.

28. Asset impairment (Cont
’d)
When the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount isreduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction amount is charged to profit or loss and an impairment provision ismade accordingly.For the purpose of impairment test of goodwill, the carrying amount of goodwill acquired in a business combination isallocated to the relevant asset groups on a reasonable basis from the acquisition date; where it is difficult to allocateto the related asset groups, it is allocated to the combination of related asset groups. The related asset groups orcombination of asset groups are those which can benefit from the synergies of the business combination and are notlarger than the reportable segments identified by the Company.In the impairment test, if there is any indication that an asset group or a combination of asset groups related to goodwillmay be impaired, the Group first tests the asset group or set of asset groups excluding goodwill for impairment,calculates the recoverable amount and recognises the corresponding impairment loss. An impairment test is then carriedout on the asset group or combination of asset groups containing goodwill by comparing its carrying amount with itsrecoverable amount. If the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised forgoodwill.An impairment loss recognised shall not be reversed in a subsequent period.
29. Long-term prepaid expenses
The long-term prepaid expenses incurred by the Company shall be recognised based on the actual cost, and evenlyamortised over the estimated benefit period. For the long-term prepaid expense that cannot benefit the subsequentaccounting periods, its value after amortisation shall be entirely included in the profit or loss for the current period.
30. Contract liabilities
A contract liability represents the Company’s obligation to transfer goods to a customer for which the Company hasreceived consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If the customer has already paidthe contract consideration before the Company transfers goods to the customer or the Company has obtained theunconditional collection right, the Company will recognise such amount received or receivable as contract liabilitiesat earlier of the actual payment by the customer or the amount payable becoming due. Contract assets and contractliabilities under the same contract are presented on a net basis, and contract assets and contract liabilities underdifferent contracts are not offset.

31. Employee benefits
(1) Scope of employee benefits
Employee benefits are all forms of considerations or compensation given by an entity in exchange for servicesrendered by employees or for the termination of employment. Employee benefits include short-term staffremuneration, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits. Employeebenefits include benefits provided to employees’spouses, children, other dependants, survivors of the deceasedemployees or to other beneficiaries.Employee benefits are presented as“employee benefits payable”and“long-term employee benefits payable”inthe balance sheet, respectively, according to liquidity.
(2) Short-term staff remuneration
Employee wages or salaries actually incurred, bonuses, and social insurance contributions such as medicalinsurance, work injury insurance, maternity insurance, and housing fund, contributed at the applicable benchmarksand rates, are recognised by the Company as a liability during the accounting period when the employees renderservices, with a corresponding charge to profit or loss or included in the cost of assets where appropriate. Wherethe payment of liability is expected not to be fully settled within 12 months after the end of the annual reportingperiod in which the employees render the related services, and the financial impact would be material, theseliabilities are measured at their discounted values.
(3) Post-employment benefits
Post-employment benefit plans include defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. A definedcontribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into aseparate fund and the Group has no further obligations for payment. A defined benefit plan is a postemploymentbenefit plan other than a defined contribution plan.
Defined contribution plans
Defined contribution plans include basic pension insurance and unemployment insurance.During the accounting period when an employee renders services, the amount payable calculated according tothe defined contribution plan is recognised as a liability and included in the profit or loss for the current period orthe cost of relevant assets.
(4) Termination benefits
When the Company provides termination benefits to employees, employee benefits liabilities arising fromtermination benefits are recognised in profit or loss for the current period at the earlier of the following dates: whenthe Company cannot revoke unilaterally compensation for dismissal due to the cancellation of labour relationshipplans and employee redundant proposals; the Company recognises cost and expenses related to payment ofcompensation for dismissal and restructuring.For the early retirement plans, economic compensations before the actual retirement date were classified astermination benefits. During the period from the date of cease of render of services to the actual retirementdate, relevant wages and contribution to social insurance for the employees proposed to be paid are recognisedin profit or loss on a one-off basis. Economic compensation after the official retirement date, such as normalpension, is accounted for as post-employment benefits.

32. Lease liabilities
(1) Initial measurement
At the commencement date of a lease term, the Company shall initially measure the lease liabilities at the presentvalue of the lease payments that are not paid at that date.
1) Lease payments
The lease payments mean the payments made by the Company to a lessor for the right to use the leasedassets during the lease term, including: fixed payments and in-substance fixed payments, less any leaseincentives receivable; variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured usingthe index or rate as at the commencement date of the lease term; the exercise price of a purchase optionif the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; payments for terminating the lease, if thelease term reflects the Company exercising an option to terminate the lease; amounts expected to bepayable by the Company under residual value guarantees.
2) Discount rate
The present value of the lease payments shall be calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowingrate.
(2) Subsequent measurement
After the commencement date of a lease term, the Company shall subsequently measure the lease liabilities by:
increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liabilities; reducing the carrying amount to reflectthe lease payments made; remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect the change in the lease payments due toany reassessment or lease modifications.The interest expense on the lease liabilities in each period during the lease term is calculated using a constantperiodic rate of interest and is recognised in profit or loss for the current period, except for the interest expense tobe capitalised. The periodic rate of interest is the discount rate used by the Company in the initial measurement oflease liabilities, or the revised discount rate used by the Company when the Company has to remeasure the leaseliabilities based on a revised discount rate due to a change in the lease payments or lease modifications.
(3) Remeasurement
After the commencement date of a lease term, the Company shall remeasure the lease liabilities using thechanges to the lease payments and the revised discount rate, and adjust the carrying amount of the right-of-useassets accordingly in the circumstances set out below. If the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reducedto zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liabilities, the Company shall recogniseany remaining amount of the remeasurement in profit or loss: there is any change in the amount of in-substancefixed payments; there is any change in the amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee;there is any change in the index or rate used to determine the lease payments; there is any change in theassessment results in the purchase option; and there is any change in the assessment results or the exercise ofthe extension option or termination option.

33. Provisions
Obligations pertinent to the contingencies which satisfy the following conditions are recognised by the Company asprovisions:
(1) the obligation is a current obligation borne by the Company;
(2) it is likely that an outflow of economic benefits from the Company will be resulted from the performance of the
obligation;
(3) the amount of the obligation can be reliably measured.
The provisions shall be initially measured based on the best estimate for the expenditure required for the performanceof the current obligation, after taking into account relevant risks, uncertainties, time value of money and otherfactors pertinent to the contingencies. If the time value of money has significant influence, the best estimates shallbe determined after discounting the relevant future cash outflow. The Company reviews the carrying amount of theprovisions on the balance sheet date and adjust the carrying amount to reflect the current best estimates.If all or some expenses incurred for settlement of recognised provisions are expected to be borne by the third party,the compensation amount shall, on a recoverable basis, be recognised as asset separately, and compensation amountrecognised shall not be more than the carrying amount of provisions.
34. Share-based payments
(1) Category of share-based payment
The Company’s share-based payment is either equity-settled or cash-settled.
(2) Determination of fair value of equity instruments
For the existence of an active market for options and other equity instruments granted by the Company, the fairvalue is determined at the quoted price in the active market. For options and other equity instruments with noactive market, option pricing model shall be used to estimate the fair value of the equity instruments. The followingfactors shall be taken into account using option pricing models: A. the exercise price of the option; B. the validityperiod of the option; C. the current market price of the share; D. the expected volatility of the share price; E.predicted dividend of the share; and F. risk-free rate of the option within the validity period.
(3) Recognition of vesting of equity instruments based on the best estimate
On each balance sheet date within the vesting period, the estimated number of equity instruments expected tovest is revised based on the best estimate made by the Company according to the latest available subsequentinformation as to changes in the number of employees with exercisable rights. On the vesting date, the finalestimated number of equity instruments expected to vest should equal the actual number of equity instrumentsexpected to vest.

(4) Accounting treatment of implementation, modification and termination of share-based payment
Equity-settled share-based payment shall be measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted toemployees. For those may immediately vest after the grant, the fair value of equity instrument at the grant dateshall be included in the relevant costs or expenses, and the capital reserve shall be increased accordingly. If theright may not be exercised until the vesting period comes to an end or until the specified performance conditionsare met, within the vesting period, the services obtained in the current period shall, based on the best estimate ofthe number of vested equity instruments, be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the capital reserve atthe fair value of the equity instrument at the grant date. After the vesting period, relevant costs or expenses andtotal shareholders’ equity which have been recognised will not be adjusted.Cash-settled share-based payment shall be measured in accordance with the fair value of liability calculatedand recognised based on the shares or other equity instruments undertaken by the Company. For those mayimmediately vest after the grant, the fair value of the liability undertaken by the Company shall, on the date of thegrant, be included in the relevant costs or expenses, and the liabilities shall be increased accordingly. If the rightmay not be exercised until the vesting period comes to an end or until the specified performance conditions aremet, within the vesting period, the services obtained in the current period shall, based on the best estimate ofthe information about the exercisable right, be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the correspondingliabilities at the fair value of the liability undertaken by the Company. For each of the balance sheet date andsettlement date before the settlement of the relevant liabilities, fair value of the liabilities shall be remeasured andthe changes will be included in the profit or loss for the current period.When there are changes in Company’s share-based payment plans, if the modification increases the fair value ofthe equity instruments granted, corresponding recognition of service increase in accordance with the increase inthe fair value of the equity instruments; if the modification increases the number of equity instruments granted,the increase in fair value of the equity instruments is recognised as a corresponding increase in service achieved.Increase in the fair value of equity instruments refer to the difference between the fair values of the modified date.If the modification reduces the total fair value of shares paid or not conductive to the use of other employeesshare-based payment plans to modify the terms and conditions of service, it will continue to be accounted for inthe accounting treatment, as if the change had not occurred, unless the Company cancelled some or all of theequity instruments granted.During the vesting period, if the cancelled equity instruments (except for failure to meet the conditions of thenon-market vesting conditions) granted by the Company to cancel the equity instruments granted amounttreated as accelerated vesting of the remaining period should be recognised immediately in profit or loss, whilerecognising capital reserves. If employees or other parties can choose to meet non-vesting conditions but they arenot met in the vesting period, the Company will treat them as cancelled equity instruments granted.

36. Revenue
(1) General principles
The Company recognises revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in the contract, i.e. when thecustomer obtains control of the relevant goods or services.Where a contract has two or more performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price to eachperformance obligation based on the percentage of respective unit price of goods or services guaranteed byeach performance obligation, and recognises as revenue based on the transaction price that is allocated to eachperformance obligation.If one of the following conditions is fulfilled, the Company performs its performance obligation within a certainperiod; otherwise, it performs its performance obligation at a point of time:
when the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company when the
Company performs its obligations under the contract;when the customer is able to control the goods in progress in the course of performance by the Company
under the contract;when the goods produced by the Company under the contract are irreplaceable and the Company has the
right to payment for performance completed to date during the whole contract term.For performance obligations performed within a certain period, the Company recognises revenue by measuringthe progress towards complete of that performance obligation within that certain period. When the progressof performance cannot be reasonably determined, if the costs incurred by the Company are expected to becompensated, the revenue shall be recognised at the amount of costs incurred until the progress of performancecan be reasonably determined.

(1) General principles (Cont
’d)
For performance obligation performed at a point of time, the Company recognises revenue at the point of time atwhich the customer obtains control of relevant goods or services. To determine whether a customer has obtainedcontrol of goods or services, the Company considers the following indications:
The Company has the current right to receive payment for the goods, which is when the customer has thecurrent payment obligations for the goods.The Company has transferred the legal title of the goods to the customer, which is when the clientpossesses the legal title of the goods.The Company has transferred the physical possession of goods to the customer, which is when thecustomer obtains physical possession of the goods.The Company has transferred all of the substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the goods to thecustomer, which is when the customer obtain all of the substantial risks and rewards of ownership of thegoods to the customer. The customer has accepted the goods. Other information indicates that the customer has obtained control of the goods.The Company’s right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Company has transferred tocustomers (and such right depends on factors other than passage of time) is accounted for as contract assets,and contract assets are subject to impairment based on ECLs (Note V. 10). The Company’s unconditional right toreceive consideration from customers (only depends on passage of time) is accounted for as accounts receivable.The Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to customers for which the Company has received orshould receive consideration from customers is accounted for as contract liabilities.Contract assets and contract liabilities under the same contract are presented on a net basis. Where the netamount has a debit balance, it is presented in“contract assets”or“other non-current assets”according to itsliquidity. Where the net amount has a credit balance, it is presented in“contract liabilities”or“other non-currentliabilities” according to its liquidity.

37. Government grants
A government grant is recognised when the grant will be received and that the Company will comply with the conditionsattaching to the grant.If a government grant is in the form of a monetary asset, it is measured at the amount received or receivable. If agovernment grant is in the form of non-monetary asset, it is measured at fair value; if the fair value cannot be obtained ina reliable way, it is measured at the nominal amount of RMB1.Government grants obtained for acquisition or construction of long-term assets or other forms of long-term assetformation are classified as government grants related to assets, while the remaining government grants are classified asgovernment grants related to revenue.Regarding the government grant not clearly defined in the official documents and can form long-term assets, the partof government grant which can be referred to the value of the assets is classified as government grant related to assetsand the remaining part is government grant related to revenue. For the government grant that is difficult to distinguish,the entire government grant is classified as government grant related to revenue.A government grant related to an asset shall be recognised as deferred income, and evenly amortised to profit or lossover the useful life of the asset in a reasonable and systematic manner. For a government grant related to revenue, ifthe grant is a compensation for related costs, expenses or losses incurred, the grant shall be recognised in profit or lossfor the current period; if the grant is a compensation for related costs, expenses or losses to be incurred in subsequentperiods, the grant shall be recognised as deferred income, and recognised in profit or loss over the periods in which therelated costs, expenses or losses are recognised. A government grant measured at nominal amount is directly includedin profit or loss for the current period. The Company adopts a consistent approach to the same or similar governmentgrants.A government grant related to daily activities is recognised in other gains relying on the essence of economic business;otherwise, recognised in non-operating income or non-operating expenses.For the repayment of a government grant already recognised, if there is any related deferred income, the repaymentshall be off set against the carrying amount of the deferred income, and any excess shall be recognised in profit or lossfor the current period; otherwise, the repayment shall be recognised immediately in profit or loss for the current period.For the policy preferential interest subsidy, if it is provided by the financial authority through banks, it is recognisedat the amount of borrowings actually received, and the borrowings costs are calculated based on the principal of theborrowings and the policy preferential interest rate; if it is provided by the financial authority directly, the correspondinginterest will be used to offset the relevant borrowing expenses.

38. Deferred income tax assets/deferred income tax liabilities
Income tax comprises current income tax expense and deferred income tax expense, which are included in profit orloss for the current period as income tax expenses, except for deferred tax related to transactions or events that aredirectly recognised in owners’ equity which are recognised in owners’equity, and deferred tax arising from a businesscombination, which is adjusted against the carrying amount of goodwill.Temporary differences arising from the difference between the carrying amount of an asset or liability and its tax baseat the balance sheet date of the Company shall be recognised as deferred income tax using the balance sheet liabilitymethod.All the taxable temporary differences are recognised as deferred income tax liabilities except for those incurred in thefollowing transactions:
(1) The initial recognition of goodwill, and the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is neither
a business combination nor affects accounting profit or taxable profit (or deductible loss) when the transactionoccurs;
(2) The taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, and
the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that thetemporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.The Company recognises a deferred income tax asset for the carry forward of deductible temporary differences,deductible losses and tax credits to subsequent periods, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profitswill be available against which the deductible temporary differences, deductible losses and tax credits can be utilised,except for those incurred in the following transactions:
(1) The transaction is neither a business combination nor affects accounting profit or taxable profit (or deductible loss)
when the transaction occurs;
(2) The deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures,
the corresponding deferred income tax asset is recognised when both of the following conditions are satisfied: it isprobable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future, and it is probable that taxable profitswill be available in the future, against which the temporary difference can be utilised.At the balance sheet date, deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are measured at the taxrates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, and their tax effect isreflected accordingly.At the balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying amount of a deferred income tax asset. If it is probablethat sufficient taxable profits will not be available in future periods to allow the benefit of the deferred tax asset to beutilised, the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset is reduced. Any such reduction in amount is reversed when itbecomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

39. Lease
(1) Identification of leases
On the beginning date of the contract, the Company (as a lessee or lessor) assesses whether the customer inthe contract has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified assetthroughout the period of use and has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period ofuse. If a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset and multiple identified assets for aperiod of time in exchange for consideration, the Company identifies such contract is, or contains, a lease.
(2) The Company as lessee
On the beginning date of the lease, the Company recognises right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases,except for short-term lease and low-value asset lease with simplified approach.The accounting policy for right-of-use assets is set out in Note V. 26.The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the beginningdate of the lease using the interest rate implicit in the lease. Where the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot bedetermined, the incremental borrowing rate is used as the discount rate. Lease payments include fixed paymentsand in-substance fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable; variable lease payments that are basedon an index or a rate; the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercisethat option; payments for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option ofterminating; and amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees. Subsequently,the interest expense on the lease liability for each period during the lease term is calculated using a constantperiodic rate of interest and is recognised in profit or loss for the current period. Variable lease payments notincluded in the measurement of lease liabilities are charged to profit or loss in the period in which they actuallyarise. The Company calculates the interest expense of the lease liability for each period of the lease term basedon the fixed periodic interest rate and is included in the current profit and loss. The variable lease payments thatare not included in the measurement of the lease liability are recognised in profit or loss when incurred.
Short-term lease
Short-term leases refer to leases with a lease term of less than 12 months from the commencement date, exceptfor those with a purchase option.Lease payments on short-term leases are recognised in the cost of related assets or current profit or loss on astraight-line basis over the lease term.For short-term leases, the Company chooses to adopt the above simplified approach for the following types ofassets that meet the conditions of short-term lease according to the classification of leased assets.

Low-value asset lease
A low-value asset lease is a lease that the value of a single leased asset is below RMB40,000 when it is a newasset.Lease payments on low-value asset leases are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and eitherincluded in the cost of the related asset or charged to profit or loss for the current period.For a low-value asset lease, the Company chooses the above simplified approach based on the specificcircumstances of each lease.Lease modificationThe Company accounts for a lease modification as a separate lease when the modification occurs and thefollowing conditions are met: the lease modification expands the scope of lease by adding the right to useone or more of the leased assets; and the increase in consideration is equivalent to the separate price for theexpanded scope of lease adjusted for that contractual situation.Where a lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease, at the effective date of the lease modification,the Company reallocates the consideration of the modified contract, re-determines the lease term and remeasuresthe lease liability based on the present value of the lease payments after the modification and the revised discountrate.If a lease modification results in a reduction in the scope of the lease or a shortening of the lease term, theCompany reduces the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset accordingly and includes in the profit or loss forthe period the gain or loss associated with the partial or complete termination of the lease.Where other lease modifications result in a remeasurement of the lease liability, the Company adjusts the carryingamount of the right-of-use asset accordingly.

(3) The Company as lessor
When the Company is a lessor, a lease is classified as a finance lease whenever the terms of the lease transfersubstantially all the risks and rewards of asset ownership to the lessee. All leases other than financial leases areclassified as operating leases.
Finance leases
Under finance leases, the Company accounts for finance lease receivables at the beginning of the lease term atthe net lease investment, which is the sum of the unsecured residual value and the present value of the leasereceipts outstanding at the commencement date of the lease, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease.The Company as lessor calculates and recognises interest income for each period of the lease term based ona fixed periodic interest rate. Variable lease payments acquired by the Company as lessor that are not includedin the net measurement of lease investments are included in profit or loss for the period when they are actuallyincurred.Derecognition and impairment of finance lease receivables are accounted for in accordance with the requirementsunder the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of FinancialInstruments and the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 23 – Transfer of Financial Assets.Operating leaseLease payments under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.Initial direct costs incurred in relation to operating leases are capitalised and amortised over the lease term on thesame basis as rental income and recognised in profit or loss for the current period. The variable lease paymentsobtained in relation to operating leases that are not included in the lease payments are recognised in profit or lossin the period in which they actually incurred.Lease modificationThe Company accounts for a modification in an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date of themodification and the amount of lease receipts received in advance or receivable in respect of the lease prior to themodification is treated as a receipt under the new lease.The Company accounts for a modification in a finance lease as a separate lease when the change occurs andthe following conditions are met: the modification expands the scope of lease by adding the right to use oneor more of the leased assets; and the increase in consideration is equivalent to the separate price for theexpanded scope of lease adjusted for that contractual situation.Where a finance lease is modified and not accounted for as a separate lease, the Company accounts for themodified lease in the following circumstances: If the modification takes effect on the lease commencementdate, the lease will be classified as an operating lease, the Company will account for it as a new lease from theeffective date of the lease modification, and use the net lease investment before the effective date of the leasemodification; If the modification takes effect on the lease commencement date, the lease will be classified as afinance lease, and the Company will conduct accounting treatment in accordance with the Accounting Standardsfor Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments on modifying orrenegotiating contracts.

(4) Sublease
When the Company is an intermediate lessor, the sublease is classified with reference to the right-of-use assetsarising from the head lease. If the head lease is a short-term lease for which the Company adopts a simplifiedapproach, then the Company classifies the sublease as an operating lease.
(5) Sale and leaseback
The lessee and the lessor shall assess and determine whether the transfer of assets in a sale and leasebacktransaction is a sale in accordance with the requirements of the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.14 – Revenue.Where asset transfer under the sale and leaseback transactions is a sale, the lessee shall measure the right-of-useassets created by the sale and leaseback based on the portion of carrying amount of the original assets relatedto right of use obtained upon leaseback, and only recognise relevant profit or loss for the right transferred tothe lessor. The lessor shall account for the purchase of assets in accordance with other applicable ASBEs andaccount for the lease of assets in accordance with this standard.Where asset transfer under the sale and leaseback transactions is not a sale, the lessee shall continue torecognise the transferred assets while recognising a financial liability equal to the transfer income and accountfor such liability according to the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition andMeasurement of Financial Instruments; or not to recognise the transferred assets but recognise a financial assetequal to the transfer income and account for such asset according to the Accounting Standard for BusinessEnterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments.

The fair value refers to the price that will be received when selling an asset or the price to be paid to transfer a liability inan orderly transaction between market participants on the date of measurement.The Group measures the relevant assets or liabilities at fair value, assuming that the orderly transaction of selling theassets or transferring the liabilities is conducted in the main market of the relevant assets or liabilities; in the absence ofthe main market, the Group assumes that the transaction is conducted in the most advantageous market for the relevantasset or liability. The main (or the most advantageous) market must be accessible to by the Group on the measurementdate. The Group uses assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming thatmarket participants act in their economic best interest.For financial assets or financial liabilities exist in an active market, fair value is determined based on the quoted pricein such market. While financial instruments do not exist in an active market, the fair value is determined using valuationtechniques.Fair value measurement for a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economicbenefits by using the asset in its best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in itsbest use.The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data areavailable to measure fair value, and gives priority to relevant observable inputs. Unobservable inputs are used only whenrelevant observable inputs are not accessible or the access to which is impracticable.All assets and liabilities measured at fair value or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fairvalue hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurementas a whole: Level 1 inputs are available quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities atthe measurement date; Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than Level 1 inputs, that are observable for the asset or liability,either directly or indirectly; Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Groupreassess them at each balance sheet date to determine whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy.

The Company issued medium-term notes amounting to RMB1,000 million on 12 July 2017 at a coupon rate of
6.80%. The proceeds net of issue costs amounted to RMB996.00 million. The notes are debts without a defined
maturity date and will continue indefinitely until the exercise of the right of redemption by the Company. Theinterest rate of the bills is determined by the basic interest rate + the initial interest rate + 300BP. It has the featureof capped interest rates and the capped interest rate does not exceed the average interest rate level of the sametype of instruments in the same industry in the same period; The Company has the right to defer any payment ofinterest. The right of redemption of the notes is vested in the Company so that it is up to the Company to decidewhether to redeem or not; the priority of repayment of the principal and interest of medium-term notes for theperiod is the same as other outstanding debt financing instruments of the issuers in the event of winding up,because there is low probability of bankruptcy that the Company will not be liable for contractual obligations todeliver cash or other financial assets expected.Based on the above, the notes do not contain any term giving rise to any contractual obligation to deliver cashor other financial assets to any other entity, or to exchange any financial asset or financial liability with any otherentity under potential adverse circumstances. Consequently, they are eligible to be recognised and accounted foras equity instruments and included under other equity instruments – Perpetual Bonds.

The Company estimated that due to the second batch of 30% restricted shares, the capital surplus recognised inprevious years was eliminated in the current period, and the final share-based payment was recognised as a reductionof capital surplus of RMB6,850,012.78; a capital increase of Zhanjiang Chenming Pulp & Paper Co., Ltd., a subsidiaryof the Company, was contributed on the part of other investors, causing a decrease in the Company’s shareholdingwithout loss of control, and an increase of capital reserves of RMB29,676,814.69; in 2021, Guangdong NanyueBank Co., Ltd., an associate of the Company, introduced investment on the part of other investors, which diluted theCompany’s equity interest, and as the 2021 annual report of Guangdong Nanyue Bank Co., Ltd. was disclosed laterthan the Company, the Company reduced the capital reserves by RMB55,547,014.21 based on the audited amount inthe 2021 annual report of Guangdong Nanyue Bank Co., Ltd.

Interest rate risk(Cont’d)The Company’s interest rate risk arises from long-term interest-bearing liabilities including long-term borrowingand bonds payable. Financial liabilities issued at floating rate expose the Company to cash flow interest raterisk. Financial liabilities issued at fixed rate expose the Company to fair value interest rate risk. The Companydetermines the relative proportions of its fixed rate and floating rate contracts depending on the prevailing marketconditions and to maintain an appropriate combination of financial instruments at fixed rate and floating ratethrough regular reviews and monitors.The Company closely monitors the interest rate risk due to changes in interest rate. At present, the Company doesnot adopt any interest rate hedging policies. However, the management is responsible for monitoring interest raterisk, and considers hedging significant interest rate risk as necessary. Interest rate hikes will increase the cost ofnew interest-bearing borrowings, and the interest expenses with respect to the Company’s outstanding floatingrate interest-bearing borrowings, and therefore could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financialresult. The management will make adjustments with reference to the latest market conditions. These adjustmentsmay include interest swap arrangements to mitigate its exposure to the interest rate risk.Interest-bearing financial instruments held by the Company are as follows (in ten thousand RMB):
