(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

1. Accounting year

The Group has adopted the calendar year as its accounting year, i.e. from 1 January to 31 December.

2. Operating cycle

An operating cycle refers to the period since when an enterprise purchases assets for processingpurpose till the realization of those assets in cash or cash equivalents. The Group is principallyengaged in the rendering of port services, bonded logistics services and other services such asproperty development and investment with one year being an operating cycle.

3. Functional currency

Renminbi ("RMB") is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Companyand its domestic subsidiaries operate. Therefore, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries chooseRMB as their functional currency. The Company's overseas subsidiaries choose their functionalcurrency on the basis of the primary economic environment in which they operate. The Companyadopts RMB to prepare its financial statements.

4. Basis of accounting and principle of measurement

The Group has adopted the accrual basis of accounting. Except for certain financial instrumentswhich are measured at fair value, the Group adopts the historical cost as the principle ofmeasurement of the financial statements. When the Group was restructured into a stock company,fixed assets and intangible assets initially contributed by state-owned shareholders were recognizedbased on valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department. Whereassets are impaired, provisions for asset impairment are made in accordance with relevantrequirements.

Where the historical cost is adopted as the measurement basis, assets are recorded at the amount ofcash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the consideration given to acquire them at the timeof their acquisition. Liabilities are recorded at the amount of proceeds or assets received or thecontractual amounts for assuming the present obligation, or, at the amount of cash or cashequivalents expected to be paid to settle the liabilities in the normal course of business.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in anorderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Regardless of whetherthat price is directly observable or estimated using valuation technique, fair value measurement anddisclosure in the financial statements are determined according to the above basis.

In the measurement of non-financial assets at fair value, market participants' ability to best utilizesuch assets to generate most economic benefits, or the ability to sell such assets to other marketparticipants who are able to best utilize the assets to generate economic benefits is taken intoaccount.

4. Basis of accounting and principle of measurement - continued

For financial assets of which the transaction price is the fair value at initial recognition, and ofwhich the subsequent fair value measurement uses a valuation technique involving unobservableinputs, the valuation technique should be calibrated so that the initial recognition result determinedusing the valuation technique equals the transaction price.

Fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputsto the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair valuemeasurements in its entirety, which are described as follows:

? Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that

the entity can access at the measurement date;? Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable

for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and? Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

5. Business combinations

Business combinations are classified into business combinations involving enterprises undercommon control and business combinations not involving enterprises under common control.

5.1 Business combinations involving enterprises under common control

A business combination involving enterprises under common control is a business combination inwhich all of the combining enterprises are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties bothbefore and after the combination, and that control is not transitory.

Assets and liabilities obtained shall be measured at their respective carrying amounts as recordedby the combining entities at the date of the combination. The difference between the carryingamount of the net assets obtained and the carrying amount of the consideration paid for thecombination is adjusted to the share premium in capital reserve. If the share premium is notsufficient to absorb the difference, any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings.

Costs that are directly attributable to the combination are charged to profit or loss for the period inwhich they are incurred.

5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill

A business combination not involving enterprises under common control is a business combinationin which all of the combining enterprises are not ultimately controlled by the same party or partiesbefore and after the combination.

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

5. Business combinations - continued

5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill - continued

The cost of combination is the aggregate of the fair values, at the acquisition date, of the assetsgiven, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued by the acquirer, in exchange forcontrol of the acquiree. Where a business combination not involving enterprises under commoncontrol is achieved in stages that involve multiple transactions, the cost of combination is the sumof the consideration paid at the acquisition date and the fair value at the acquisition date of theacquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree. Intermediary expenses (fees in respect of auditing,legal services, valuation and consultancy services, etc.) and other administrative expensesattributable to the business combination are recognized in profit or loss for the period when theyare incurred.

The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired by the acquirer in abusiness combination that meet the recognition criteria shall be measured at fair value at theacquisition date.

When a business combination contract provides for the acquirer's recovery of considerationpreviously paid contingent on one or multiple future event(s), the Group recognizes the contingentconsideration provided in the contract as an asset, as part of the consideration transferred in thebusiness combination, and includes it in the cost of business combination at the fair value at theacquisition date. Within 12 months after the acquisition, where the contingent consideration needsto be adjusted as new or further evidences are obtained in respect of the circumstances existed atthe acquisition date, the adjustment shall be recognized and the amount originally recognized ingoodwill or non-operating income shall be adjusted. A change in or adjustment to the contingentconsideration under other circumstances shall be accounted for in accordance with AccountingStandards for Business Enterprise No. 22 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement(the "ASBE No. 22") and Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 13 - Contingencies.Any changes or adjustments are included in profit or loss for the current period.

Where the cost of combination exceeds the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree'sidentifiable net assets, the difference is treated as an asset and recognized as goodwill, which ismeasured at cost on initial recognition. Where the cost of combination is less than the acquirer'sinterest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets, the acquirer reassesses themeasurement of the fair values of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingentliabilities and measurement of the cost of combination. If after that reassessment, the cost ofcombination is still less than the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable netassets, the acquirer recognizes the remaining difference immediately in profit or loss for the currentperiod.

5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill - continued

If either the fair values of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired in acombination or the cost of business combination can be determined only provisionally by the endof the period in which the business combination is effected, the acquirer recognizes and measuresthe combination using those provisional values. Any adjustments to those provisional values within12 months after the acquisition date are treated as if they had been recognized and measured at theacquisition date.

Goodwill arising on a business combination is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses,and is presented separately in the consolidated financial statements.

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is considered together with the related assets groupor portfolio of assets groups, i.e., goodwill is reasonably allocated to the related assets group orportfolio of assets groups expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. An impairmentloss is recognized if the recoverable amount of the assets group or portfolio of assets groups (towhich the goodwill is allocated) is less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss is firstlyallocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to such assets group or portfolioof assets groups, and then reduce the carrying amount of other assets pro-rata on the basis of thecarrying amount of each asset (other than goodwill) in the assets group or portfolio of assets groups.

Recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value of an asset net of cost of disposal and the presentvalue of the asset's estimated future cash flows.

The impairment loss of goodwill is recognized in profit or loss for the period when it is incurredand will not be reversed in subsequent periods.

6. Consolidated financial statements

The scope of consolidation in the consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis ofcontrol. Control exists when the investor has power over the investee; is exposed, or has rights, tovariable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power over theinvestee to affect its returns. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts andcircumstances indicate that there are changes in the above elements of the definition of control.

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceaseswhen the Group loses control of the subsidiary.

For a subsidiary already disposed of by the Group, the operating results and cash flows before thedate of disposal (the date when control is lost) are included in the consolidated income statementand consolidated cash flow statement, as appropriate.

6. Consolidated financial statements - continued

For subsidiaries acquired through a business combination involving enterprises not under commoncontrol, the operating results and cash flows from the acquisition date (the date when control isobtained) are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated cash flow statement,as appropriate.

No matter when the business combination occurs in the reporting period, subsidiaries acquiredthrough a business combination involving enterprises under common control or the combined partyunder merger by absorption are included in the Group's scope of consolidation as if they had beenincluded in the scope of consolidation from the date when they first came under the common controlof the ultimate controlling party. Their operating results and cash flows from the beginning of theearliest reporting period or the date when they first came under the common control of the ultimatecontrolling party are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated cash flowstatement, as appropriate.

The significant accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by the subsidiaries aredetermined based on the uniform accounting policies and accounting periods set out by theCompany.

Where the accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by subsidiaries are inconsistent withthose of the Company, appropriate adjustments are made to the subsidiaries' financial statements inaccordance with the accounting policies of the Company.

The effect of intra-group transactions on the consolidated financial statements is eliminated onconsolidation.

The portion of subsidiaries' equity that is not attributable to the Company is treated as minorityinterests and presented as "minority interests" in the consolidated balance sheet under the line itemof shareholders' equity. The portion of net profits or losses of subsidiaries for the period attributableto minority interests is presented as "profit or loss attributable to minority interests" in theconsolidated income statement under the line item of net profit. The portion of comprehensiveincome of subsidiaries for the period attributable to minority interests is presented as "totalcomprehensive income attributable to minority shareholders" in the consolidated income statementunder the line item of total comprehensive income.

When the minority shareholders' share of loss of a subsidiary exceeds the minority shareholders'share of the opening balance of owners' equity of the subsidiary, the excess amount is still allocatedagainst minority interests.

Acquisition of minority interests or partial disposal of equity investments in a subsidiary that do notresult in the loss of control over the subsidiary is accounted for as equity transactions. The carryingamounts of the Company's interests and minority interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in theirrelative interests in the subsidiary. The difference between the amount by which the minorityinterests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is adjusted to capitalreserve. If the capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the excess is adjusted againstretained earnings.

6. Consolidated financial statements - continued

Where equity interests in an acquiree are acquired in stages through multiple transactions,ultimately constituting a business combination not involving enterprises under common control, theaccounting treatment shall be made taking into account whether these transactions are a "packagedeal". If yes, these transactions are accounted for as a single transaction where control is obtained.If no, they are accounted for as transactions where control is obtained at the acquisition date.Specifically, the equity interests held in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date are remeasured atthe fair value at the acquisition date, and the difference between the fair value and carrying amountis recognized in profit or loss for the period; where the equity interests held in the acquiree prior tothe acquisition date involve changes in other comprehensive income and other owners' equity underthe equity method, the changes are transferred to income for the period to which the acquisitiondate is attributable.

Where the control over a subsidiary is lost due to partial disposal of equity investments or otherreasons, any retained interest is remeasured at its fair value at the date when control is lost. Thedifference between (i) the aggregate of the consideration received on disposal and the fair value ofany retained interest and (ii) the share of the former subsidiary's net assets cumulatively calculatedfrom the acquisition date according to the original proportion of ownership interests is recognizedas investment income for the period in which control is lost, and the goodwill is offset accordingly.Other comprehensive income associated with equity investments in the former subsidiary isreclassified to investment income for the period in which control is lost.

Where the disposal of equity investments in a subsidiary until the control is lost is achieved in stagesthrough multiple transactions, the multiple transactions are usually considered as a package deal ifthe terms, conditions and economic effects of the transactions satisfy one or several of the followingcircumstances: (i) they are entered into at the same time or in contemplation of one another; (ii)they form a complete transaction designed to achieve an overall commercial effect; (iii) theoccurrence of one transaction is dependent on the occurrence of at least one other transaction; (iv)one transaction alone is not economically justified, but it is economically justified when consideredtogether with other transactions. Where the transactions of disposal of equity investments in asubsidiary until the control is lost are a package deal, these transactions are accounted for as a singletransaction of disposal of a subsidiary resulting in loss of control. Before losing control, thedifference between each disposal consideration and the corresponding share of net assets of thesubsidiary continuously calculated from acquisition date is recognized as other comprehensiveincome. When control is lost, the cumulated other comprehensive income is transferred to profit orloss for the period in which control is lost. If the transactions of disposal of equity investments in asubsidiary until control is lost are not a package deal, these transactions are accounted for as separatetransactions.

7. Joint arrangements

Joint arrangement refers to the arrangement jointly controlled by two or more participating parties.The Group's joint arrangements have the following characteristics: (1) all the participating partiesare bound by the arrangement; (2) the arrangement is jointly controlled by two or more participatingparties. Any participating party cannot control the arrangement separately and any participatingparty having joint control of the arrangement can stop other participating parties or the group ofparticipating parties from the separate control over the arrangement.

7. Joint arrangements - continued

Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, and exists only whenthe decisions on the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

Joint arrangements comprise of joint operations and joint ventures. A joint operation is a jointarrangement whereby the parties sharing control have rights to the assets and assume liabilitiesrelating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties sharingcontrol have rights to only the net assets of the arrangement.

8. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and deposits that can be readily withdrawn on demand. Cashequivalents are the Group's short-term (generally due within 3 months since the acquisition date),highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which aresubject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

9. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies and translation of financial

statements denominated in foreign currencies

9.1 Transactions denominated in foreign currencies

A foreign currency transaction is recorded, on initial recognition, by applying the spot exchangerate on the date of the transaction.

At the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated into functional currencyusing the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from thedifferences between the spot exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date and those on initialrecognition or at the previous balance sheet date are recognized in profit or loss for the period,except that (1) exchange differences related to a specific-purpose borrowing denominated in foreigncurrency that qualify for capitalization are capitalized as part of the cost of the qualifying assetduring the capitalization period; (2) exchange differences related to hedging instruments for thepurpose of hedging against foreign currency risks are accounted for using hedge accounting; (3)exchange differences arising from changes in the gross carrying amounts (other than the amortizedcost) of monetary items classified as at fair value through other comprehensive income arerecognized as other comprehensive income.

When the consolidated financial statements include foreign operation(s), if there is a foreigncurrency monetary item constituting a net investment in a foreign operation, exchange differencesarising from changes in exchange rates are recognized as "translation differences of financialstatements denominated in foreign currencies" in other comprehensive income, and in profit andloss for the period upon disposal of the foreign operation.

Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fairvalue are re-translated at the spot exchange rates on the date the fair value is determined. Differencebetween the re-translated functional currency amount and the original functional currency amountis treated as changes in fair value (including changes of exchange rate) and is recognized in profitand loss or as other comprehensive income.

9.2 Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies

For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, financial statements of a foreignoperation are translated from the foreign currency into RMB using the following method: all assetsand liabilities in the balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rates prevailing at the balancesheet date; shareholders' equity items except for unappropriated profit are translated at the spotexchange rates at the dates on which such items arise; all items in the income statement as well asitems reflecting the distribution of profits are translated at the average exchange rates of theaccounting period of the consolidated financial statements; the opening balance of unappropriatedprofit is the translated closing balance of the previous year's unappropriated profit; the closingbalance of unappropriated profit is calculated and presented on the basis of each translated profitdistribution item. The difference between the translated assets and the aggregate of liabilities andshareholders' equity items is recognized as other comprehensive income and included inshareholders' equity.

Cash flows arising from a transaction in foreign currency and cash flows of an overseas subsidiaryare translated at average exchange rates during the accounting period of consolidated financialstatements. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents is regarded as areconciling item and presented separately in the cash flow statement as "effect of exchange ratechanges on cash and cash equivalents".

The prior year comparative figures are presented in the amounts translated based on the financialstatements for the prior year.

On disposal of the Group's entire interest in a foreign operation, or upon a loss of control over aforeign operation due to partial disposal of equity investments in it or other reasons, the Grouptransfers the accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financial statements of thisforeign operation attributable to the owners' equity of the Company and presented under othercomprehensive income, to profit or loss for the period in which the disposal occurs.

For partial disposals of equity interests in foreign operations which are associatesor joint ventures, the proportionate share of the accumulated translation differences of financialstatements denominated in foreign currencies of foreign operations are reclassified to profit or loss.

10. Financial instruments

The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability when it becomes a party to contractualprovisions of a financial instrument.

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a tradedate basis.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. For financial assets andfinancial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss for the period, relevant transaction costs aredirectly recognized in profit or loss; upon initial recognition of contract assets, accounts receivableand notes receivable that do not contain significant financing component or without considering thefinancing component included in the contract with a term not exceeding one year under theAccounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue ("Revenue Standards"), the Groupadopts the transaction price as defined in the Revenue Standards for initial measurement.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or afinancial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expenses over the relevantaccounting periods.

The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows through theexpected life of the financial asset or financial liability to the gross carrying amount of the financialasset or to the amortized cost of the financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate,the Group estimates future cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial assetor financial liability (such as repayment in advance, extension, call option or other similar options)(without considering the expected credit losses).

10. Financial instruments - continued

The amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability is the amount of a financial asset or afinancial liability initially recognized net of principal repaid, plus or less the cumulative amortizedamount arising from amortization of the difference between the amount initially recognized and theamount at the maturity date using the effective interest method, net of cumulative credit lossallowance (only applicable to financial assets).

10.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial assets

Subsequent to initial recognition, the Group's financial assets of various categories are subsequentlymeasured at amortized cost, at fair value through other comprehensive income or at fair valuethrough profit or loss.

If contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solelypayments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, and the financial asset isheld within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collectcontractual cash flows, the Group classifies the financial asset as financial assets at amortized cost.Such types of financial assets mainly include cash and bank balances, notes receivable, accountsreceivable, other receivables, debt investments and long-term receivables.

If contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solelypayments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, and the financial asset isheld within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flowsand selling the financial asset, the Group classifies the financial asset as financial assets at fair valuethrough other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"). Accounts receivable and notes receivableclassified as FVTOCI at acquisition are presented as receivables financing, while the remainingitems due within one year (inclusive) upon acquisition are presented under other current assets.Other financial assets of such type are presented as other debt investments if they are due after oneyear since the acquisition, or presented under non-current assets due within one year if they are duewithin one year (inclusive) since the balance sheet date.

On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate non-trading equity instruments, otherthan contingent consideration recognized through business combination not involving enterprisesunder common control, as financial assets at FVTOCI on an individual basis. Such financial assetsat FVTOCI are presented as investments in other equity instruments.

A financial asset is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied:

? It has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near term; or? On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Groupmanages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual pattern ofshort-term profit-taking; or? It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as ahedging instrument.

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") include those classified asfinancial assets at FVTPL and those designated as financial assets at FVTPL.

? Financial assets not satisfying the criteria of classification as financial assets at amortized costand financial assets at FVTOCI are classified as financial assets at FVTPL.? Upon initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate the financial assets as at

FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces accounting mismatch.

Financial assets at FVTPL assets other than derivative financial assets are presented as "held-for-trading financial assets". Financial assets with a maturity over one year since the balance sheet date(or without a fixed maturity) and expected to be held for over one year are presented under othernon-current financial assets.

10.1.1 Financial assets measured at amortized cost

Financial assets measured at amortized cost are subsequently measured at amortized cost using theeffective interest method. Gain or loss arising from impairment or derecognition is recognized inprofit or loss.

For financial assets measured at amortized cost, the Group recognizes interest income using theeffective interest method. The Group calculates and recognizes interest income by applying theeffective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the financial assets, except for the followingcircumstances:

? For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, the Group calculates andrecognizes the interest income based on amortized cost of the financial assets and the credit-adjusted effective interest rate.

10.1.2 Financial assets at FVTOCI

Changes in fair value of financial assets at FVTOCI are included in other comprehensive income,except that related impairment losses or gains, interest income calculated using the effective interestmethod and exchange gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss for the current period. Amountscharged to profit or loss for each period equal to the amount charged to profit or loss as if it hasalways been measured at amortized cost. Upon derecognition of the financial asset, the cumulativegains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income shall be transferred out fromother comprehensive income and recognized in profit or loss.

During the period in which the Group holds thenon-trading equity instruments, revenue from dividends is recognized in profit or loss for the currentperiod when (1) the Group's right to collect dividends has been established; (2) it is probable thatthe associated economic benefits will flow to the Group; and (3) the amount of dividends can bemeasured reliably.

10.1.3 Financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value. Gains or losses arising fromchanges in fair values and dividends and interests related to the financial assets are recognized inprofit or loss.

10.2 Impairment of financial instruments

For financial assets at amortized cost, financial assets classified as at FVTOCI, lease receivables,contract assets, loan commitments that are not financial liabilities at FVTPL, financial guaranteecontracts that are neither financial liabilities at FVTPL nor financial liabilities arising from transferof financial assets that does not satisfy the derecognition criteria or continuing involvement in thetransferred financial assets, the Group accounts for the impairment and recognizes the provision forlosses on the basis of expected credit loss ("ECL").

For all contract assets, accounts receivable and notes receivable arising from transactions regulatedby Revenue Standards, and lease receivables arising from transactions regulated by the AccountingStandards for Business Enterprises No. 21 - Leases, the Group recognizes the provision for lossesat an amount equivalent to the lifetime ECL.

For other financial instruments, other than purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets,the Group assesses changes in credit risks of the relevant financial asset since initial recognition ateach balance sheet date. If the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition of thefinancial instruments, the Group recognizes the provision for losses at an amount equivalent tolifetime ECL; if the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition of thefinancial instruments, the Group recognizes the provision for losses at an amount equivalent to 12-month ECL. The increase or reversal of credit loss provision for financial assets other than thoseclassified as at FVTOCI is recognized as impairment loss or gain and included in profit or loss forthe period. For financial assets classified as at FVTOCI, the credit loss provision is recognized inother comprehensive income and the impairment loss or gain is included in profit or loss for theperiod without reducing the carrying amount of the financial assets in the balance sheet.

10.2 Impairment of financial instruments - continued

Where the Group has measured the provision for losses at an amount equivalent to lifetime ECL ofa financial instrument in prior accounting period, but the financial instrument no longer satisfies thecriteria of significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition at the current balance sheet date,the Group recognizes the provision for losses of the financial instrument at an amount equivalentto 12-month ECL at the current balance sheet date, with any resulting reversal of provision forlosses recognized as impairment gains in profit or loss for the period.

10.2.1 Significant increase in credit risk

The Group uses reasonable and supportable forward-looking information to assess whether thecredit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition by comparing the risk of a defaultoccurring on the financial instrument at the balance sheet date with the risk of a default occurringon the financial instrument at the date of initial recognition. For loan commitments and financialguarantee contracts, the date that the Group becomes a party to the irrevocable commitment isconsidered as the date of initial recognition in applying the provisions on impairment of financialinstruments.

In particular, the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk hasincreased significantly:

(1) Significant changes in internal price indicators of credit risk as a result of a change in credit

risk.

(2) Significant changes in the rates or other terms of an existing financial instrument if the

instrument was newly originated or issued at the balance sheet date (such as more stringentcovenants, increased amounts of collateral or guarantees, or higher rate of return).

(3) Significant changes in external market indicators of credit risk for the same financial

instrument or similar financial instruments with the same expected life. These indicatorsinclude the credit spread, the credit swap prices for the borrower, the length of time or theextent to which the fair value of a financial asset has been less than its amortized cost andother market information related to the borrower, such as changes in the price of a borrower'sdebt and equity instruments.

(4) An actual or expected significant change in the financial instrument's external credit rating.

(5) An actual or expected internal credit rating downgrade for the borrower.

(6) Adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a

significant change in the debtor's ability to meet its debt obligations.

(7) An actual or expected significant change in the operating results of the debtor.

(8) Significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same debtor.

(9) Significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the

debtor.

10.2.1 Significant increase in credit risk - continued

(10) Significant changes in the value of the collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality

of third-party guarantees or credit enhancements, which are expected to reduce the debtor'seconomic motives to repay within the time limit specified in contract or affect theprobability of default.

(11) Significant changes in the debtor's economic motives to repay within the time limit specified

in contract.

(12) Expected changes to loan contract, including the exemption or revision of contractual

obligations, the granting of interest-free periods, the jump in interest rates, the requirementfor additional collateral or guarantees, or other changes in the contractual framework forfinancial instruments that may result from the breach of contract.

(13) Significant changes in the expected performance and behaviour of the debtor.

(14) Changes in the Group's credit management approach in relation to the financial instruments.

The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantlysince initial recognition if the financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk at thebalance sheet date. A financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk if: i) it has a lowerrisk of default; ii) the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligationsin the near term; and iii) adverse changes in economic and business conditions in the longer termmay, but will not necessarily, reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfil its contractual cash flowobligations.

10.2.2 Credit-impaired financial assets

When an event or several events that are expected to have adverse impact on the future cash flowsof the financial assets have occurred, the financial assets become credit-impaired. The evidences ofcredit impairment of financial assets include the following observable information:

(1) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor.

(2) A breach of contract by the debtor, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal

payments.

(3) The creditor, for economic or legal reasons relating to the debtor's financial difficulty,

granting a concession to the debtor.

(4) It is probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganizations.

(5) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial

difficulties of the issuer or the debtor.

(6) Purchase or origination of a financial asset with a large scale of discount, which reflects

facts of credit loss incurred.

10.2.2 Credit-impaired financial assets - continued

Based on the Group's internal credit risk management, the Group considers an event of defaultoccurs when information developed internally or obtained from external sources indicates that thedebtor is unlikely to pay its creditors, including the Group, in full (without taking into account anycollaterals held by the Group).

10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss

Lease receivables are assessed for ECL individually by the Group. In addition, the Group usesimpairment matrix to calculate ECL for notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables,contract assets, debt investments and other debt investments on a portfolio basis. The Groupclassifies financial instruments into different groups based on common risk characteristics.Common credit risk characteristics include credit risk rating, the date of initial recognition,remaining contractual period, industry of debtor and geographical location of the debtor.

The Group determines the ECL of relevant financial instruments using the following methods:

? For a financial asset, the credit loss is the present value of the difference between thecontractual cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that theGroup expects to receive.? For a lease receivable, the credit loss is the present value of the difference between thecontractual cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that theGroup expects to receive.? For undrawn loan commitments (refer to Note (IV) 10.4.1.3 for details of accounting policies),

the ECL is the present value of the difference between the contractual cash flows that are dueto the Group if the holder of the loan commitments draws down the loan, and the cash flowsthat the Group expects to receive if the loan is drawn down. The Group's estimation of theECL for loan commitments is consistent with its expectation of the loan commitments drawndown.? For a financial guarantee contract (refer to Note (IV) 10.4.1.3 for details of accounting

policies), the expected loss is the present value of the expected payments to reimburse theholder for a credit loss that it incurs less any amounts that the Group expects to receive fromthe holder, the debtor or any other party.? For a financial asset that has become credit-impaired at the balance sheet date, but not apurchased or originated credit-impaired financial asset, the credit loss is the differencebetween the asset's gross carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flowsdiscounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate.

The factors reflected by the Group's measurement of ECL of financial instruments include: unbiasedprobability weighted average amount recognized by assessing a series of possible results; time valueof money; reasonable and supportable information related to historical events, current condition andforecast of future economic position that is available without undue cost or effort at the balancesheet date.

10.2.4 Write-down of financial assets

When the Group no longer reasonably expects that the contractual cash flows of financial assetscan be collected in aggregate or in part, the Group will directly write down the gross carryingamount of the financial asset, which constitutes derecognition of relevant financial assets.

10.3 Transfer of financial assets

The Group will derecognize a financial asset if one of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) thecontractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; (ii) the financial asset has beentransferred and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset istransferred to the transferee; or (iii) although the financial asset has been transferred, the Groupneither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financialasset but has not retained control of the financial asset.

If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of afinancial asset, and it retains control of the financial asset, the Group will recognize the financialasset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferred financial asset and recognize anassociated liability. The Group will measure relevant liabilities as follows:

? For transferred financial assets carried at amortized cost, the carrying amount of relevant

liabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvementless amortized cost of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upontransfer of financial assets) with addition of amortized cost of obligations assumed by theGroup (if the Group assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Relevantliabilities are not designated as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.? For transferred financial assets carried at fair value, the carrying amount of relevant financialliabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvementless fair value of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upon transferof financial assets) with addition of fair value of obligations assumed by the Group (if theGroup assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Accordingly, the fairvalue of relevant rights and obligations shall be measured on an individual basis.

10.3 Transfer of financial assets - continued

For a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that satisfies the derecognition criteria, the differencebetween (1) the carrying amount of the financial asset transferred and (2) the sum of theconsideration received from the transfer and any cumulative gain or loss that has been recognizedin other comprehensive income, is recognized in profit or loss. Where the transferred assets are non-trading equity instrument investments designated as at FVTOCI, cumulative gains or lossespreviously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred out and included in retainedearnings.

If a part of the transferred financial asset qualifies for derecognition, the overall carrying amount ofthe financial asset prior to transfer is allocated between the part that continues to be recognized andthe part that is derecognized, based on the respective fair values of those parts on transfer date. Thedifference between (1) the sum of the consideration received for the part derecognized and anycumulative gain or loss allocated to the part derecognized which has been previously recognized inother comprehensive income, and (2) the carrying amount allocated to the part derecognized onderecognition date is recognized in profit or loss. If the transferred asset is a non-trading equityinstrument investment designated as at FVTOCI, the cumulative gain or loss that has beenpreviously recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred out and included in retainedearnings.

If the transfer of a financial asset in its entirety does not satisfy the derecognition criteria, the Groupcontinues to recognize the transferred financial asset in its entirety. The consideration received fromtransfer of assets is recognized as a financial liability upon receipt.

10.4 Classification of financial liabilities and equity instruments

Financial instruments issued by the Group are classified into financial liabilities or equityinstruments on the basis of the substance of the contractual arrangements and the economic naturenot only its legal form, together with the definition of financial liabilities and equity instruments oninitial recognition.

10.4.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities

On initial recognition, financial liabilities are classified into financial liabilities at FVTPL and otherfinancial liabilities.

10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities at FVTPL consist of held-for-trading financial liabilities (including derivativesclassified as financial liabilities) and those designated as at FVTPL. Except for derivative financialliabilities presented separately, the financial liabilities at FVTPL are presented as held-for-tradingfinancial liabilities.

10.4.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities - continued

10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL - continued

A financial liability is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied:

? It has been assumed principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term; or? On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Groupmanages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual pattern ofshort-term profit-taking; or? It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as ahedging instrument.

A financial liability may be designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition when one of the followingconditions is satisfied: (i) such designation eliminates or significantly reduces accounting mismatch;or (ii) the Group makes management and performance evaluation on a fair value basis, inaccordance with the Group's formally documented risk management or investment strategy, andreports to key management personnel on that basis; or (iii) the qualified hybrid contract containingembedded derivatives.

Held-for-trading financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value. Any gains or lossesarising from changes in the fair value and any dividend or interest expenses paid on the financialliabilities are recognized in profit or loss.

For a financial liability designated as at FVTPL, the amount of changes in fair value of the financialliability that are attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability shall be presented in othercomprehensive income, while other changes in fair value are included in profit or loss for the currentperiod. Upon the derecognition of such financial liability, the accumulated amount of change in fairvalue due to the change in the credit risk of such financial liability, which was recognized in othercomprehensive income, is transferred to retained earnings. Any dividend or interest expense on thefinancial liability is recognized in profit or loss. If the accounting treatment for the impact of thechange in credit risk of such financial liability in the above ways would create or enlarge anaccounting mismatch in profit or loss, the Group shall present all gains or losses on that liability(including the effects of changes in the credit risk of that liability) in profit or loss for the period.

For financial liabilities arising from contingent consideration recognized by the Group as theacquirer in the business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the Groupmeasures such financial liabilities at fair value, and includes the changes in the financial liabilitiesin profit or loss for the period.

10.4.1.2 Other financial liabilities

Except for financial liabilities, financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments arising fromtransfer of financial assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising fromcontinuing involvement in the transferred financial assets, other financial liabilities aresubsequently measured at amortized cost, with gain or loss arising from derecognition oramortization recognized in profit or loss.

If the modification or renegotiation for the contract by the Group and its counterparties does notresult in derecognition of a financial liability subsequently measured at amortized cost but thechanges in contractual cash flows, the Group will recalculate the carrying amount of the financialliability, with relevant gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. The Group will determine thecarrying amount of the financial liability based on the present value of renegotiated or modifiedcontractual cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate of the financial liability. Forall costs or expenses arising from modification or renegotiation of the contract, the Group will adjustthe modified carrying amount of the financial liability and make amortization during the remainingterm of the modified financial liability.

10.4.1.3 Financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments toreimburse the holder of the contract for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to makepayment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.Subsequent to initial recognition, financial guarantee contracts that are not designated as financialliabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities arising from transfer of financialassets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising from continuing involvement inthe transferred financial assets, and loan commitments to provide a loan at a below-market interestrate, which are not designated at fair value through profit or loss, are measured at the higher of: (1)amount of loss provision; and (2) the amount initially recognized less cumulative amortizationamount determined based on the revenue standards.

10.4.2 Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Group derecognizes a financial liability (or part of it) when the underlying present obligation(or part of it) is discharged. An agreement between the Group (the debtor) and the creditor to replacethe original financial liability with a new financial liability with substantially different terms isaccounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a newfinancial liability.

When the Group derecognizes a financial liability or a part of it, it recognizes the difference betweenthe carrying amount of the financial liability (or part of the financial liability) derecognized and theconsideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or new financial liabilities assumed)in profit or loss.

10.4.3 Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Groupafter deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued (including refinanced), repurchased,sold and cancelled by the Group are recognized as changes of equity. Changes in fair value of equityinstruments is not recognized by the Group. Transaction costs related to equity transactions arededucted from equity.

The Group recognizes the distribution to holders of the equity instruments as distribution of profits,dividends paid do not affect total amount of shareholders' equity.

10.5 Derivatives and embedded derivatives

Derivatives include forward exchange contracts, currency swaps, interest rate swaps and foreignexchange options. Derivatives are initially measured at fair value at the date when the derivativecontracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value.

For a hybrid contract comprising of embedded derivatives and a host contract, if the host contractis a financial asset, the Group does not separate the embedded derivatives from the hybrid contractbut takes the hybrid contract as a whole in applying relevant accounting standards regarding theclassification of financial assets.

If the host contract of the hybrid contract is not a financial asset, the embedded derivatives areseparated from the hybrid contract and treated as separate derivatives by the Group when they meetall the following conditions:

(1) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to

those of the host contract.

(2) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the

definition of a derivative.

(3) the hybrid contract is not measured at fair value through profit or loss.

10.5 Derivatives and embedded derivatives - continued

For the embedded derivative separated from the hybrid contract, the Group accounts for the hostcontract in the hybrid contract with applicable accounting standards. If the fair value of theembedded derivatives cannot be measured reliably by the Group according to the terms andconditions of the embedded derivatives, the fair value of such derivatives are measured at thedifference between the fair value of the hybrid contract and the fair value of the host contract. Afteradopting the above method, if the fair value of the embedded derivative still cannot be measured ona stand-alone basis at acquisition date or subsequent balance sheet dates, the hybrid contract, as awhole, is designated as financial instruments at FVTPL.

10.6 Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities

Where the Group has a legal right that is currently enforceable to offset the recognized financialassets and financial liabilities, and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the financialasset and settle the financial liability simultaneously, a financial asset and a financial liability shallbe offset and the net amount is presented in the balance sheet. Except for the above circumstances,financial assets and financial liabilities shall be presented separately in the balance sheet and shallnot be offset.

10.7 Compound instrument

For convertible bonds issued by the Group that contain both liabilities and conversion option thatmay convert the liabilities to its own equity instrument, upon initial recognition, the bonds are splitinto liabilities and conversion option which are separately recognized. Therein, the conversionoption that exchanges a fixed amount of cash or other financial assets for a fixed amount of equityinstruments is accounted for as an equity instrument.

Upon initial recognition, the fair value of liability portion is determined based on the prevailingmarket price of the bonds containing no conversion option. The overall issue price of the convertiblebonds net of the fair value of the liability portion is considered as the value of the conversion optionthat enables the bonds holder to convert the bonds to equity instruments, and is included in otherequity instruments.

The liability portion of the convertible bonds is subsequently measured at amortized cost using theeffective interest method; the value of the conversion option classified as equity instrument remainin equity instrument. The expiry or conversion of convertible bonds will not result in loss or gain.

The transaction costs incurred for issuance of the convertible bonds are allocated between theliability portion and equity instrument portion in proportion to their respective fair value. Thetransaction cost relating to the equity instrument portion is directly included in equity instrument;while the transaction cost relating to the liability portion is included in the carrying amount of theliability, and amortized over the lifetime of the convertible bonds using the effective interest method.

10.8 Reclassification of financial instruments

When the Group changes the business model to manage the financial assets, the financial assetsaffected will be reclassified and no financial liabilities will be reclassified.

The financial assets are reclassified by the Group and are accounted for prospectively since the dateof reclassification (i.e. the first date of the initial reporting period after the business model of whichthe financial assets are reclassified by the enterprise is changed).

Where a financial asset at amortized cost is reclassified as a financial assets FVTPL by the Group,such financial asset is measured at fair value at the date of reclassification and the differencebetween the original carrying amount and the fair value is recognized in profit or loss for the period.

Where a financial asset at amortized cost is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTOCI by the Group,such financial asset is measured at the fair value at the date of reclassification, and the differencebetween the original amount and the fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income.

Where a financial asset at FVTOCI is reclassified as a financial asset at amortized cost by the Group,the accumulated gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income aretransferred out and the fair value at the date of reclassification is adjusted. The adjusted fair valueis determined as the new carrying amount, as if the financial asset has been always measured atamortized cost. The reclassification of the financial asset shall not affect its effective interest rateor the measurement of ECL.

Where a financial asset at FVTOCI is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTPL by the Group, suchfinancial asset continues to be measured at fair value. At the same time, the accumulated gains orlosses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to profit or loss for theperiod.

Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified as a financial asset at amortized cost by the Group,the fair value at the date of reclassification is recognized as the new gross carrying amount.

Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTOCI by the Group, suchfinancial asset continues to be measured at fair value.

Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified, the effective interest rate is determined on thebasis of the fair value of the financial asset at the date of reclassification.

11. Accounts receivable

The Group performs internal credit ratings on customers and determines expected losses rate ofnotes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables and long-term receivables. Basis fordetermining ratings and the expected losses rates are as follows:

Internal credit rating	Basis for determining portfolio	Average expected loss rate (%)
A	Customers can make repayments within credit term and have good credit records based on historical experience. The probability of default on payment of due amounts is extremely low in the foreseeable future.	0.00-0.10
B	The customer may have overdue payment based on historical experience but they can make repayments.	0.10-0.30
C	The evidences indicate that the overdue credit risks of the customer are significantly increased and there is probability of default on payment.	0.30-50.00
D	The evidences indicate that the accounts receivable are impaired or the customer has significant financial difficulty. The amounts cannot be recovered in the foreseeable future.	50.00-100.00

12. Receivables financing

Notes receivable classified as at FVTOCI are presented as receivables financing if they are duewithin one year (including one year) from the date of acquisition; or presented as other debtinvestments if they are due after one year from the date of acquisition. For related accountingpolicies, refer to Note (IV) 10.

13. Inventories

13.1 Categories of inventories

Inventories include raw materials, goods on hand and others. Inventories are initially measured atcost. Cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other expendituresincurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

13.2 Valuation methods of inventories upon delivery

The actual cost of inventories upon delivery is calculated using the weighted average method andfirst-in-first-out method.

13.3 Basis for determining net realizable value of inventories and provision methods for decline

in value of inventories

At the balance sheet date, inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Ifthe cost of inventories is higher than the net realizable value, a provision for decline in value ofinventories is made.

13.3 Basis for determining net realizable value of inventories and provision methods for decline

in value of inventories - continued

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less theestimated costs of completion, the estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes.Net realizable value is determined on the basis of clear evidence obtained, after taking intoconsideration purposes of inventories being held and effect of post balance sheet events.

Provision for decline in value of other inventories is made based on the excess of cost of inventoryover its net realizable value on an item-by-item basis.

After the provision for decline in value of inventories is made, if the circumstances that previouslycaused inventories to be written down below cost no longer exist so that the net realizable value ofinventories is higher than their cost, the original provision for decline in value is reversed and thereversal is included in profit or loss for the period.

13.4 Inventory count system

The perpetual inventory system is adopted as inventory count system.

13.5 Amortization methods for low cost and short-lived consumable items and packaging

materials

Packaging materials and low cost and short-lived consumable items are amortized using theimmediate write-off method.

14. Contract assets

14.1 Recognition and criteria of contract assets

A contract asset represents the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services thatthe Group has transferred to a customer, and such right depends on factors other than the passageof time. The Group's unconditional right (i.e., depending on the passage of time only) to receiveconsideration from the customer is separately presented as receivables.

14.2 Determination and accounting treatments of expected credit losses ("ECL") for contract

assets

Refer to Note (IV) 10.2 "Impairment of financial instruments" for determination and accountingtreatments of ECL for contract assets.

15. Assets held for sale

Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held-for-sale category when the Grouprecovers the carrying amount through a sale (including an exchange of nonmonetary assets that hascommercial substance) rather than continuing use.

Non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held-for-sale are required to satisfy the followingconditions: (1) the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present conditionaccording to the terms that are usual and customary for sales of such asset or disposal group; (2)the sale is highly probable, i.e. the Group has made a resolution about selling plan and obtained aconfirmed purchase commitment and the sale is expected to be completed within one year.

When there is loss of control over a subsidiary due to disposal of investments in the subsidiary, andthe proposed disposal of investments in the subsidiary satisfies classification criteria of held-for-sale category, the investments in subsidiaries are classified as held-for-sale category as a whole inthe Company's separate financial statements, and all assets and liabilities of subsidiaries areclassified as held-for-sale category in the consolidated financial statements regardless of whetherthat part of the equity investments are remained after the sale.

The Group measures the non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held-for-sale at thelower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Where the carrying amount is higherthan the fair value net of costs to sell, the carrying amount should be reduced to the fair value netof costs to sell, and such reduction is recognized in impairment loss of assets and included in profitor loss for the period. Meanwhile, provision for impairment of held-for-sale assets is made. Whenthere is an increase in the fair value of non-current assets held-for-sale net of costs to sell at thebalance sheet date, the original reduction should be reversed in impairment loss of assets recognizedafter the classification of held-for-sale category, and the reversal amount is included in profit or lossfor the period. The impairment losses recognized before such assets are classified as held-for-salecategory shall not be reversed.

Non-current assets classified as held-for-sale or non-current assets in disposal groups are notdepreciated or amortized, and interest and other costs of liabilities of disposal groups classified asheld-for-sale continue to be recognized.

All or part of equity investments in associates or joint ventures are classified as held-for-sale assets.For the part that is classified as held-for-sale, it is no longer accounted for using the equity methodsince the date of the classification.

If an asset or a disposal group classified as held for sale subsequently no longer satisfy the criteriafor recognition as held-for-sale, the Group shall cease to classify the asset or disposal group as heldfor sale. It shall be measured at the lower of (1) the carrying amount of the asset or disposal groupbefore being classified as held for sale, as adjusted for any depreciation, amortization or impairmentthat would have been recognized had the asset or disposal group not been classified as held for sale;and (2) the recoverable amount at the date of the decision not to sell.

If equity investments in associates or joint ventures classified as held for sale no longer satisfy thecriteria of classification as held-for-sale, such investments are accounted for retrospectively usingthe equity method from the date when they are classified as held for sale. The financial statementsfor the period of classification as held-for-sale are adjusted accordingly.

16. Long-term equity investments

16.1 Basis for determining joint control and significant influence over investee

Control is archived when the Group has the power over the investee and has rights to variablereturns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect itsreturns. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an arrangement, and existsonly when the decisions on relevant activities of the arrangement require unanimous consent ofparticipants sharing control. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial andoperating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.When determining whether an investing enterprise is able to exercise control or significantinfluence over an investee, the effect of potential voting rights of the investee (for example, warrantsand convertible debts) held by the investing enterprises or other parties that are currently exercisableor convertible shall be considered.

16.2 Determination of initial investment cost

For a long-term equity investment acquired through a business combination involving enterprisesunder common control, the share of carrying amount of owners' equity of the acquiree in theconsolidated financial statements of ultimate controlling party is recognized as initial investmentcost of long-term equity investment at the date of combination. The difference between the initialinvestment cost and the carrying amount of cash paid, non-cash assets transferred and liabilitiesassumed shall be adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient toabsorb the difference, any excess is adjusted to retained earnings. If the consideration of thecombination is satisfied by the issue of equity securities, the initial investment cost of the long-termequity investment is the share of carrying amount of owners' equity of the acquiree in theconsolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party at the date of combination. Theaggregate face value of the shares issued shall be accounted for as share capital. The differencebetween the initial investment cost and the aggregate face value of the shares issued is adjusted tocapital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, any excessis adjusted to retained earnings. Where equity interests in an acquiree are acquired in stages throughmultiple transactions, ultimately constituting a business combination involving enterprises undercommon control, the accounting treatment shall be made taking into account whether thesetransactions are a "package deal". If yes, these transactions are accounted for as a single transactionwhere control is obtained. If no, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment is theshare of carrying amount of owners' equity of the acquiree in the ultimate controlling party'sconsolidated financial statements at the date of combination. The difference between the initialinvestment cost and the sum of carrying amount of equity investments previously held in theacquiree and the new investment cost is adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserveis not sufficient to absorb the difference, any excess is adjusted to retained earnings. Othercomprehensive income recognized for the previously held equity investments under the equitymethod or non-trading equity instrument investments designated as at FVTOCI is not subject toaccounting treatment temporarily.

The absorbing party's or acquirer's intermediary expenses (fees in respect of auditing, legal services,valuation and consultancy services, etc.) and other administrative expenses attributable to thebusiness combination are recognized in profit or loss for the period when they are incurred.

The long-term equity investment acquired otherwise than through a business combination is initiallymeasured at its cost. When the entity is able to exercise significant influence or joint control (butnot control) over an investee due to additional investment, the cost of long-term equity investmentsis the sum of the fair value of previously-held equity investments determined in accordance withthe ASBE No. 22 and the additional investment cost.

16.3 Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss

16.3.1 Long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method

Long-term equity investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method in theCompany's separate financial statements. A subsidiary is an investee that is controlled by the Group.

Under the cost method, a long-term equity investment is measured at initial investment cost.Additional or recovered investment is adjusted to the cost of long-term equity investment.Investment income is recognized in the period in accordance with the attributable share of cashdividends or profit distributions declared by the investee.

16.3.2 Long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method

Except for investments in associates and joint ventures completely or partly classified as held-for-sale, the Group accounts for investment in associates and joint ventures using the equity method.An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. A joint venture is a jointarrangement whereby the Group has rights to only the net assets of the arrangement.

16.3.2 Long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method - continued

Under the equity method, where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceedsthe Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition,no adjustment is made to the initial investment cost. Where the initial investment cost is less thanthe Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition,the difference is recognized in profit or loss for the period, and the cost of the long-term equityinvestment is adjusted accordingly.

Under the equity method, the Group recognizes its share of the net profit or loss and othercomprehensive income of the investee for the period as investment income and othercomprehensive income respectively for the period. Meanwhile, the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment is adjusted. The carrying amount of the long-term equity investment shallbe reduced by the attributable portion of profit distributions or cash dividends declared by theinvestee. Other changes in owners' equity of the investee other than net profit or loss and othercomprehensive income are correspondingly adjusted to the carrying amount of the long-term equityinvestment, and recognized in capital reserve. The Group recognizes its share of the investee's netprofit or loss based on the fair value of the investee's individual identifiable assets, etc. at theacquisition date after making appropriate adjustments. When the investee's accounting policies andaccounting period are inconsistent with those of the Group, the Group recognizes investmentincome and other comprehensive income after making appropriate adjustments to the financialstatements of the investee to conform to the Group's accounting policies and accounting period.However, unrealized gains or losses resulting from the Group's transactions with its associates andjoint ventures, which do not constitute a business, are eliminated based on the proportionattributable to the Group and then investment gains or losses are recognized on such basis. However,unrealized losses resulting from the Group's transactions with its associates and joint ventures whichrepresent impairment losses on the transferred assets are not eliminated.

The Group recognize its share of net losses of the investee to the extent that the carrying amount ofthe long-term equity investment together with any long-term interests that in substance form partof its net investment in the investee are reduced to zero. Except that if the Group has incurredobligations to assume additional losses, a provision is recognized according to the obligationexpected, and recorded in the investment loss for the period. Where net profits are subsequentlymade by the investee, the Group resumes recognizing its share of those profits only after its shareof the profits exceeds the share of losses previously not recognized.

16.4 Disposal of long-term equity investments

On disposal of a long-term equity investment, the difference between the carrying amount andproceeds actually received is recognized in profit or loss for the period. For long-term equityinvestments accounted for using the equity method, if the remaining interest after disposal is stillaccounted for using the equity method, other comprehensive income previously recognized underthe equity method is accounted for on the same basis as if the investee had directly disposed ofrelated assets or liabilities, and is transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis;owners' equity recognized due to changes in other owners' equity of the investee (other than netprofit or loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution) is transferred to profit or loss forthe period on a pro rata basis. For long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method,if the remaining interest after disposal is still accounted for using the cost method, othercomprehensive income previously recognized under the equity method or in accordance with thestandards for the recognition and measurement of financial instruments before obtaining the controlover the investee, is accounted for on the same basis as if the investee had directly disposed ofrelated assets or liabilities, and is transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis;changes in other owners' equity (other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profitdistribution) in the investee's net assets recognized under the equity method is transferred to profitor loss for the period on a pro rata basis.

Where the Group loses control over the investee due to partial disposal of equity investments, if theremaining equity after disposal enables the Group to exercise joint control or significant influenceover the investee, the remaining equity is accounted for using the equity method and adjusted as ifthey are accounted for using the equity method since the acquisition date in preparing separatefinancial statements; if the remaining equity after disposal does not enable the Group to exercisejoint control or significant influence over the investee, it is accounted for according to relevantprovisions of the standards on recognition and measurement of financial instruments, and thedifference between the fair value and carrying amount at date of losing control is recognized inprofit or loss for the period. Before the Group obtains control over the investee, othercomprehensive income recognized under the equity method or the standards on recognition andmeasurement of financial instruments, is accounted for on the same basis as if the investee haddirectly disposed of related assets or liabilities when the control over the investee is lost; otherchanges in owners' equity (other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profitdistribution) in the investee's net assets recognized under the equity method is transferred to profitor loss for the period when the control over the investee is lost. Where the remaining equity afterdisposal is accounted for using the equity method, other comprehensive income and other owners'equity are transferred on a pro rata basis. Where the remaining equity after disposal is accountedfor in accordance with the standards on recognition and measurement of financial instruments, othercomprehensive income and other owners' equity are all transferred.

Where the Group loses joint control or significant influence over the investee after partial disposalof equity investments, the remaining equity after disposal is accounted for in accordance with thestandards on recognition and measurement of financial instruments, and the difference between fairvalue at the date of losing joint control or significant influence and carrying amount is recognizedin profit or loss for the period. Other comprehensive income previously recognized under the equitymethod, is accounted for on the same basis as if the investee had directly disposed of related assetsor liabilities when the equity method is not adopted. Owners' equity recognized due to other changesin owners' equity other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profit distributionare transferred to investment income for the period when the equity method is not adopted.

Where the Group disposes of its equity investments in subsidiaries in stages through multipletransactions until it loses control over the subsidiaries, if these transactions are a "package deal",they are accounted for as a single transaction of disposal of equity investments in subsidiaries. Thedifference between each disposal consideration and the corresponding carrying amount of the long-term equity investments disposed before the control is lost is first recognized as othercomprehensive income, and then fully transferred to profit or loss for the period when the controlis lost.

17. Investment properties

Investment property is property held by the Group to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both.It includes a land use right that is leased out and a building that is leased out.

An investment property is measured initially at cost. Subsequent expenditures incurred for suchinvestment property are included in the cost of the investment property if it is probable thateconomic benefits associated with an investment property will flow to the Group and the subsequentexpenditures can be measured reliably. Other subsequent expenditures are recognized in profit orloss for the period in which they are incurred.

The Group uses the cost model for subsequent measurement of investment property, and adopts adepreciation or amortization policy for the investment property which is consistent with that forbuildings or land use rights.

An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when it is permanently withdrawn fromuse and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal.

When an investment property is sold, transferred, retired or damaged, the Group recognizes theamount of any proceeds on disposal net of the carrying amount and related taxes in profit or lossfor the period.

18. Fixed assets and depreciation

Fixed assets are tangible assets that are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services,for rental to others, or for administrative purposes, and have useful lives of more than oneaccounting year. A fixed asset is recognized only when it is probable that economic benefitsassociated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.Fixed assets are initially measured at cost. When the Group is restructured into a stock company,the fixed assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on thevaluation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department.

Subsequent expenditures incurred for the fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset if itis probable that economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and thesubsequent expenditures can be measured reliably. Meanwhile the carrying amount of the replacedpart is derecognized. Other subsequent expenditures are recognized in profit or loss for the periodin which they are incurred.

A fixed asset is depreciated over its useful life using the straight-line method since the monthsubsequent to the one in which it is ready for intended use. The useful life, estimated net residualvalue rate and annual depreciation rate of each category of fixed assets are as follows:

Category	Useful life	Estimated residual value rate (%)	Annual depreciation rate (%)
Port and terminal facilities	5-50 years	5.00	1.90-19.00
Buildings	5-50 years	5.00	1.90-19.00
and fixture and other equipment	3-20 years	5.00	4.75-31.67
Motor vehicles and cargo ships	5-25 years	5.00	3.80-19.00

Estimated net residual value of a fixed asset is the estimated amount that the Group would currentlyobtain from disposal of the asset, after deducting the estimated costs of disposal, if the asset werealready of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life.

If a fixed asset is upon disposal or no future economic benefits are expected to be generated fromits use or disposal, the fixed asset is derecognized. When a fixed asset is sold, transferred, retired ordamaged, the amount of any proceeds on disposal of the asset net of the carrying amount and relatedtaxes is recognized in profit or loss for the period.

The Group reviews the useful life and estimated net residual value of a fixed asset and thedepreciation method applied at least once at each financial year-end, and accounts for any changeas a change in an accounting estimate.

19. Construction in progress

Construction in progress is measured at its actual costs. The actual costs include variousconstruction expenditures during the construction period, borrowing costs capitalized before it isready for intended use and other relevant costs. Construction in progress is not depreciated.Construction in progress is transferred to a fixed asset when it is ready for intended use.

20. Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifyingasset are capitalized when expenditures for such asset and borrowing costs are incurred andactivities relating to the acquisition, construction or production of the asset that are necessary toprepare the asset for its intended use or sale have commenced. Capitalization of borrowing costsceases when the qualifying asset being acquired, constructed or produced becomes ready for itsintended use or sale. Capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended during periods in which theacquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset is interrupted abnormally and when theinterruption is for a continuous period of more than 3 months. Capitalization is suspended until theacquisition, construction or production of the asset is resumed. Other borrowing costs arerecognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Where funds are borrowed under a specific-purpose borrowing, the amount of interest to becapitalized is the actual interest expense incurred on that borrowing for the period less any bankinterest earned from depositing the borrowed funds before being used on the asset or any investmentincome on the temporary investment of those funds. Where funds are borrowed under general-purpose borrowings, the Group determines the amount of interest to be capitalized on suchborrowings by applying a capitalization rate to the weighted average of the excess of cumulativeexpenditures on the asset over the amounts of specific-purpose borrowings. The capitalization rateis the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the general-purpose borrowings. Duringthe capitalization period, exchange differences related to a specific-purpose borrowing denominatedin foreign currency are all capitalized. Exchange differences in connection with general-purposeborrowings are recognized in profit or loss for the period in which they are incurred.

21. Intangible assets

21.1 Intangible assets

Intangible assets include land use rights, terminal operating rights and others.

An intangible asset is measured initially at cost. When the Group was restructured into a stockcompany, the intangible assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognizedbased on the valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department.Except for port operation rights, when an intangible asset with a finite useful life is available foruse, its original cost is amortized over its estimated useful life. The terminal operating rights underoutput method are amortized over the operating periods according to the ratio of the estimatedminimum guaranteed throughput to the estimated minimum guaranteed total throughput. When theestimated minimum guaranteed throughput cannot be measured reliably, the straight-line methodwill be used for amortization over the operating periods. An intangible asset with indefinite usefullife is not amortized.

Land use rights	Straight-line method	40-50	-
Terminal operating right	Output/Straight-line method	30-50	-
Others	Straight-line method	5-50	-

For an intangible asset with a finite useful life, the Group reviews the useful life and amortizationmethod at the end of the year, and makes adjustments when necessary.

21.2 Research and development expenditure

Expenditure during the research phase is recognized as an expense in the period in which it isincurred.

Expenditure during the development phase that meets all of the following conditions at the sametime is recognized as an intangible asset. Expenditure during development phase that does not meetthe following conditions is recognized in profit or loss for the period.

(1) it is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use

or sale.

(2) the Group has the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it.

(3) the Group can demonstrate the ways in which the intangible asset will generate economic

benefits, including the evidence of the existence of a market for the output of the intangibleasset or the intangible asset itself or, if it is to be used internally, the usefulness of theintangible asset.

(4) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the

development and the ability to use or sell the intangible asset.

(5) the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development phase can be

reliably measured.

If the expenditures cannot be distinguished between the research phase and development phase, theGroup recognizes all of them in profit or loss for the period. The costs of intangible assets generatedby the internal research only include the total expenditure incurred for the period from the timepoint when the capitalization criteria are satisfied to date when intangible assets are ready forintended use. For the identical intangible asset, the expenditures expensed and included in profit orloss before they qualify for capitalization during the development process are not adjusted.

22. Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill

The Group assesses at the balance sheet date whether there is any indication that the long-termequity investments, investment properties measured using the cost method, fixed assets,construction in progress, right-of-use assets, intangible assets with a finite useful life and assetsrelated to contract costs may be impaired. If there is any indication that such assets may be impaired,recoverable amounts are estimated for such assets. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life andintangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, irrespective of whetherthere is any indication that the assets may be impaired.

Recoverable amount is estimated on an individual basis. If it is not practical to estimate therecoverable amount of an individual asset, the recoverable amount of the asset group to which theasset belongs will be estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair valueless costs of disposal and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from theasset.

If the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount, the deficitis accounted for as an impairment loss and is recognized in profit or loss.

Once the impairment loss of above-mentioned asset is recognized, it shall not be reversed in anysubsequent period.

23. Long-term prepaid expenses

Long-term prepaid expenses represent expenses incurred that should be borne and amortized overthe current and subsequent periods (together of more than one year). Long-term prepaid expensesare amortized using the straight-line method over the expected periods in which benefits are derived.

24. Contract liabilities

A contract liability represents the Group's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer forconsideration received or receivable from the customer. The contract assets and contract liabilitiesunder the same contract are presented on a net basis.

25. Employee benefits

Employee benefits are all forms of considerations given by the Group in exchange for servicesrendered by employees or for the termination of employment. Employee benefits include short-termbenefits, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits.

25.1 Short-term employee benefits

Short-term benefits refer to the employee benefits that the Group is required to make full paymentswithin the 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees haverendered relevant services, except the post-employment benefits and termination benefits.Specifically, the short-term benefits include: employee salaries, bonuses, allowances and subsidies,employee benefits, social insurance contributions such as the medical insurance, the work injuryinsurance and the maternity insurance, housing funds, union running costs and employee educationcosts, short-term paid absence, short-term profit sharing plan, non-monetary welfare and othershort-term benefits.

Short-term employee benefits payable are recognized as liabilities, with a corresponding charge tothe profit or loss for the period or included in the costs of related assets in the accounting period inwhich employees provide services to the Group. Staff welfare expenses incurred by the Group arerecognized in profit or loss for the period or the costs of related assets based on the actually occurredamounts when it actually occurred. Non-monetary staff welfare expenses are measured at fair value.

For the Group's payments of social security contributions for employees such as premiums orcontributions on medical insurance, work injury insurance and maternity insurance, and paymentsof housing funds, as well as union running costs and employee education costs provided inaccordance with relevant requirements, the amount of employee benefits are calculated accordingto prescribed bases and percentages and recognized as liabilities, with a corresponding charge tothe profit or loss for the period or included in the costs of related assets in the accounting period inwhich employees have rendered services.

25.2 Post-employment benefits

Post-employment benefits refer to the rewards and benefits of various forms provided by the Groupafter the employees have retired or terminated the labor relationship with the enterprises for theservices rendered by the employees, exclusive of the short-term benefits and the terminationbenefits. The post-employment benefits consist of the pension insurance, the annuity, theunemployment insurance and other post-employment benefits.

Post-employment benefit plans are classified by the Group into defined contribution plans anddefined benefit plans. The post-employment benefit plan refers to agreements the Group enteredinto with the employees on the post-employment benefits or regulations or measures established bythe Group for provisions of the post-employee benefits, among which the defined contribution planrefers to the post-employment benefit plan under which the Group shall no longer undertake anyobligations of payments after paying fixed expenses to independent funds; the defined benefit plansrefer to the post-employment benefit plans other than the defined contribution plans. During theaccounting period in which the employees have rendered services to the Group, the amounts payablecalculated based on the defined contribution plan are recognized as liabilities and included in profitor loss for the period or included in costs of related assets.

25.2 Post-employment benefits - continued

For defined benefit plans, the Group attributes the welfare obligations arising from the definedbenefit plans to the period in which employees provide services to the Group according to theformula determined based on the projected cumulative benefit unit method, and includes them inprofit or loss for the period or costs of related assets. Defined benefit costs are categorized as follows:

? Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses onsettlements);? Net interest of net liabilities or assets of defined benefit plans (including interest income of

planned assets, interest expenses of defined benefit plan liabilities and effect of asset ceiling);and? Changes arising from remeasurement of net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans.

Service costs and net interest of net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans are recognizedin profit or loss for the period or included in costs of related assets. Changes arising fromremeasurement of the net defined benefit liability or asset (including actuarial gains and losses, thereturn on plan assets, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liabilityor asset, and any change in the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net intereston the net defined benefit liability or asset) are recognized in other comprehensive income.

The deficit or surplus resulting from the present value of the defined benefit plan obligation less thefair value of the defined benefit plan assets is recognized as a net defined benefit plan liability orasset.

25.3 Termination benefits

Termination benefits refer to the compensations the Group pay to the employees for terminating theemployment relationship with employees before the expiry of the employment contracts orencouraging employees to accept voluntary redundancy. Where the Group provides terminationbenefits to employees, the liabilities arising from termination benefits are recognized and includedin profit or loss for the period at the earlier of: (1) when the Group cannot unilaterally withdraw theoffer of termination benefits because of the termination plan or a curtailment proposal; and (2) whenthe Group recognizes costs or expenses related to restructuring that involves the payment oftermination benefits.

25.4 Other long-term employee benefits

Other long-term employee benefits refer to all employee benefits except for short-term benefits,post-employment benefits, and termination benefits.

Other long-term employee benefits that qualify as defined contribution plans are treated inaccordance with the relevant provisions of the defined contribution plans mentioned above, exceptthat the net liability or net asset for other long-term employee benefits is recognized and measuredin accordance with the relevant provisions of the defined benefit plans. At the end of the reportingperiod, employee benefit costs arising from other long-term employee benefits are recognized asthree components: service cost, net interest on the net liability or net asset for other long-termemployee benefits, and changes resulting from the remeasurement of the net liability or net assetfor other long-term employee benefits. The total net amount of these items is included in profit orloss for the period or cost of related assets.

The Group provides internal retirement benefits to employees accepting internal retirementarrangements. Internal retirement benefits refer to payments of salaries and social securitycontributions for employees who have not reached the retirement age regulated by the country andare approved to quit the job voluntarily. For internal retirement benefits, the internal retirementbenefits the Group is expected to pay during the period from the date when employees stoprendering services to the date of normal retirement are recognized as liabilities at the present valueand included in profit or loss for the period when relevant recognition requirements of the internalretirement benefits are met.

26. Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation related with contingencies, andit is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and theamount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle thepresent obligation at balance sheet date, taking into account factors pertaining to a contingency suchas the risks, uncertainties and time value of money. Where the effect of the time value of money ismaterial, the amount of the provision is determined by discounting the related future cash outflows.

Where all or some of the expenditure required to settle a provision is expected to be reimbursed bya third party, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset only when it is virtually certainthat reimbursement will be received, and the amount of reimbursement recognized does not exceedthe carrying amount of the provision.

27. Revenue recognition

The Group's revenue is mainly from the following business types:

(1) Port services;

(2) Bonded logistics services;

(3) Other services such as property development and investment.

27. Revenue recognition - continued

The Group recognizes revenue based on the transaction price allocated to such performanceobligation when a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when "control" of the goods or servicesunderlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. A performanceobligation represents the commitment that a good and service that is distinct shall be transferred bythe Group to the customer. Transaction price refers to the consideration that the Group is expectedto charge due to the transfer of goods or services to the customer, but it does not include paymentsreceived on behalf of third parties and amounts that the Group expects to return to the customer.

It is a performance obligation satisfied during a period of time and the Group recognizes revenueduring a period of time according to the progress of performance if one of the following conditionsis met: (i) the customer obtains and consumes economic benefits at the same time of the Group'sperformance; (ii) the customer is able to control goods in progress during the Group's performance;(iii) goods or services generated during the Group's performance have irreplaceable utilization, andthe Group is entitled to collect amounts of cumulative performance part which have been done upto now. Otherwise, the Group will recognize revenue at the point in time when the customer obtainscontrol over relative goods or services.

The Group adopts the output method, i.e. the value of goods or services transferred to customers todetermine the appropriate progress of performance. Where the progress cannot be determinedreasonably, the revenue is recognized based on the amount of cost that is expected to becompensated based on the cost already incurred, until the progress of performance is reasonablydetermined.

Contract assets refers to the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services thatthe Group has transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than thepassage of time. Accounting policies relating to the impairment of contract asset are specified inNote (IV) 10. The Company's unconditional (i.e., depending on the passage of time only) right toreceive consideration from the customer is separately presented as receivables.

Contract liabilities refers to the Company's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customerfor which the Company has already received consideration from the customer.

Contract assets and contract liabilities under the same contract are presented at net amount.

If there are two or more of performance obligations included in the contract, at the inception of thecontract, the Group allocates the transaction price to each single performance obligation based onthe proportion of stand-alone selling price of goods or services promised in each stand-aloneperformance obligation. However, if there is conclusive evidence indicating that the contractdiscount or variable consideration is only relative with one or more (not the whole) performanceobligations in the contract, the Group will allocate the contract discount or variable considerationto relative one or more performance obligations. Stand-alone selling price refers to the price of asingle sale of goods or services. If the stand-alone selling price cannot be observed directly, theGroup estimates the stand-alone selling price through comprehensive consideration of all relativeinformation that can be reasonably acquired and maximum use of observable inputs.

27. Revenue recognition - continued

In case of the existence of variable consideration (such as sales discount) in the contract, the Groupshall determine the best estimate of variable consideration based on the expected value or the mostlikely amount. The transaction price including variable consideration shall not exceed the amountof the cumulatively recognized revenue which is unlikely to be significantly reversed when relevantuncertainty is eliminated. At each balance sheet date, the Group re-estimates the amount of variableconsideration which should be included in transaction price.

Where the customer pays non-cash consideration, the Group recognizes the transaction price basedon the fair value of the non-cash consideration. Where the fair value of the non-cash considerationcannot be reasonably estimated, the Group recognizes the transaction price indirectly by referenceto the stand-alone price of the promised goods or services promised transferred to the customer.

Where the contract includes significant financing component, the Group determines the transactionprice based on assumption that the customer has paid the amount payable by cash when obtainingthe control over the goods or services. The difference between the transaction price and the contractconsideration is amortized within the contract period using effective interest method. At theinception of the contract, if the Group expects that the time interval between the customer'sobtaining control of a promised goods or service and the customer's payment for that goods orservice will not exceed one year, the Group will not consider the significant financing componentin the contract.

The Group assesses whether it controls each specified good or service before that good or serviceis transferred to the customer to determine whether the Group is a principal or an agent. If the Groupcontrols the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a customer, theGroup is a principal and recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration received orreceivable. Otherwise, the Group is an agent and recognizes revenue in the amount of any fee orcommission to which it expects to be entitled. The fee or commission is the net amount ofconsideration that the Group retains after paying the other party the consideration received inexchange for the goods or services to be provided by that party, or is determined in accordance withthe established commission amount or percentage, etc.

Where the Group receives receipts in advance from a customer for sales of goods or rendering ofservices, the amount is first recognized as a liability and then transferred to revenue when the relatedperformance obligation has been satisfied. When the Group's receipts in advance are not requiredto be refunded and it is probable that the customer will waive all or part of its contractual rights, theGroup recognizes the said amounts as revenue on a pro-rata basis in accordance with the pattern ofexercise of the customer's contractual rights, if the Group expects to be entitled to the amountsrelating to the contractual rights waived by the customer; otherwise, the Group reverses the relatedbalance of the said liabilities to revenue only when it is highly unlikely that the customer will requireperformance of the remaining performance obligations.

28.1 Costs of obtaining a contract

For the incremental cost of obtaining the contract (cost that will not incur if the contract is notobtained) that is expected to be recoverable, it is recognized as an asset, and shall be amortized ona basis that is consistent with the revenue recognition of the goods or services to which the assetrelates and recognized in profit or loss for the period. If the amortization period of such asset is lessthan one year, it is recognized in profit or loss for the period when incurred. Other expenses incurredfor obtaining the contract is included in profit or loss for the period when incurred, except for thoseexplicitly assumed by the customer.

28.2 Costs to fulfil a contract

If the costs incurred in fulfilling a contract are not within the scope of other standards other thanthe revenue standards, the Group shall recognize an asset from the costs incurred to fulfil a contractonly if those costs meet all of the following criteria: (1) the costs relate directly to a contract or toan anticipated contract that the Group can specifically identify; (2) the costs generate or enhanceresources of the entity that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future; and (3)the costs are expected to be recovered. The asset mentioned above shall be amortized on a basis thatis consistent with the transfer to the customer of the goods or services to which the asset relates andrecognized in profit or loss for the period.

28.3 Losses of assets related to contract costs

In determining the impairment losses of assets related to contract costs, the Group first determinesimpairment losses of other assets related to contracts recognized in accordance with other ASBEs;then, for assets related to contract costs, if the carrying amount of the assets is higher than thedifference between: (1) the remaining consideration that the Group expects to obtain for the transferof the goods or services related to the assets; and (2) the estimated costs to be incurred for thetransfer of the related goods or services, any excess is provided for impairment and recognized asimpairment loss of assets.

After the provision for impairment of assets related to contract costs is made, if factors ofimpairment in previous periods change so that the difference between the above two is higher thanthe carrying amount of the assets, the original provision for impairment of the assets is reversed andrecognized in profit or loss for the period, provided that the carrying amount of the assets after thereversal does not exceed the carrying amount of the assets at the date of reversal assuming noprovision for impairment is made.

29. Government grants

Government grants are transfers of monetary assets or non-monetary assets from the governmentto the Group at no consideration. A government grant is recognized only when the Group cancomply with conditions attached to the grant and the Group will receive the grant.

29. Government grants - continued

If a government grant takes the form of a monetary asset, it is measured at the amount received orreceivable. If a government grant takes the form of a non-monetary asset, it is measured at fair value.If the fair value cannot be reliably determined, it is measured at a nominal amount. A governmentgrant measured at a nominal amount is recognized immediately in profit or loss for the period.

A government grant related to an asset is recognized as deferred income, and evenly amortized toprofit or loss over the useful life of the related asset. A government grant measured at a nominalamount is recognized immediately in profit or loss for the period. Where the related asset is sold,transferred, scrapped or damaged prior to the end of its useful life, the related undistributed deferredincome is transferred to the profit or loss for the disposal period.

For a government grant related to income, if the grant is a compensation for related expenses orlosses to be incurred in subsequent periods, the grant is recognized as deferred income andrecognized in profit or loss over the periods in which the related costs or losses are recognized; ifthe grant is a compensation for related expenses or losses already incurred, the grant is recognizedimmediately in profit or loss.

For government grants both related to assets and income, different parts are distinguished fordifferent accounting treatments; if it is difficult to distinguish, they should be classified asgovernment grants related to income as a whole.

A government grant related to the Group's daily activities is recognized in other income based onthe nature of economic activities; a government grant not related to the Group's daily activities isrecognized in non-operating income.

30. Income tax

The income tax expenses include current income tax and deferred income tax.

30.1 Current income tax

At the balance sheet date, current income tax liabilities (or assets) for the current and prior periodsare measured at the amount expected to be paid (or recovered) according to the requirements of taxlaws.

30.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities

For temporary differences between the carrying amounts of certain assets or liabilities and their taxbase, or between the carrying amount of those items that are not recognized as assets or liabilitiesand their tax base that can be determined according to tax laws, deferred tax assets and liabilitiesare recognized using the balance sheet liability method.

30.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities - continued

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred taxassets for deductible temporary differences are recognized to the extent that it is probable thattaxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized.However, for temporary differences associated with the initial recognition of goodwill and theinitial recognition of an asset or liability arising from a transaction, which is not a businesscombination that affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profits (or deductible losses) atthe time of transaction, no deferred tax asset or liability is recognized.

For deductible losses and tax credits that can be carried forward, deferred tax assets are recognizedto the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which thedeductible losses and tax credits can be utilized.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated withinvestments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, except where the Group is able to controlthe timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary differencewill not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporarydifferences associated with such investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are onlyrecognized to the extent that future taxable profits will be available against which the deductibletemporary differences can be utilized and they are expected to be reversed in the foreseeable future.

At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates applicablein the period in which the related assets are recovered or the related liabilities are settled accordingto tax laws.

Current and deferred tax expenses or income are recognized in profit or loss for the period, exceptwhen they arise from transactions or events that are directly recognized in other comprehensiveincome or in shareholders' equity, in which case they are recognized in other comprehensive incomeor in shareholders' equity, and when they arise from business combinations, in which case theyadjust the carrying amount of goodwill.

At the balance sheet date, the carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed and reduced if itis no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available in the future to allow the benefitof deferred tax assets to be utilized. Any such reduction in amount is reversed when it becomesprobable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

30.3 Income tax offsetting

When the Group has a legal right to settle on a net basis and intends either to settle on a net basisor to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, current tax assets and current taxliabilities are offset and presented on a net basis.

31. Leases

A lease is a contract whereby the lessor conveys to the lessee in return for a consideration the rightto use an asset for an agreed period of time.

For contracts entered into, the Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at inceptiondate. Such contract will not be reassessed unless the terms and conditions of the contract aresubsequently changed.

31.1 The Group as Lessee

31.1.1 Separating components of a lease

If a contract contains a lease component and one or more non-lease components, the Group allocatesthe consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-aloneprice of the lease components and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components.

31.1.2 Right-of-use assets

Except for short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, at thecommencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes right-of-use assets. The commencementdate of the lease is the date on which a lessor makes an underlying asset available for use by theGroup. Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost. The cost of the right-of-use assetscomprises:

? the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities.? any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives.? any initial direct costs incurred by the Group.? an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying

asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the conditionrequired by the terms and conditions of the lease.

31.1 The Group as Lessee - continued

31.1.2 Right-of-use assets - continued

The Group depreciates right-of-use assets by reference to the relevant depreciation provisions ofAccounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 4 - Fixed Assets. The right-of-use assets aredepreciated over the remaining useful lives of the leased assets where the Group is reasonablycertain to obtain ownership of the underlying assets at the end of the lease term. Otherwise, right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and the remaining useful lives of theleased assets.

The Group applies Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 8 - Impairment of Assets, todetermine whether the right-of-use assets are impaired and to account for any impairment lossidentified.

31.1.3 Lease liabilities

Except for short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, at thecommencement date of the lease, the Group measures the lease liabilities at the present value of thelease payments that are not paid at that date. If the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readilydetermined, the lessee shall use the lessee's incremental borrowing rate.

The lease payments comprise the following payments by the Group for the right to use theunderlying asset during the lease term:

? fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives.? variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate.? the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option.? payments for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising an optionto terminate the lease.? amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees.

Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, are initially measured using the index orrate as at the commencement date. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of thelease liabilities, are recognized in profit or loss, or in the cost of relevant assets, in the period ofthose payments.

After the commencement date, interest expenses on the lease liabilities in each period during thelease term is calculated by a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the leaseliabilities, and included in profit or loss or charged to cost of related assets.

If the carrying amount of theright-of-use assets is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the leaseliabilities, the difference should be recognized in profit or loss.

? there is a change in the lease term, or in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlyingasset, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities, on the basis of the revised lease term and therevised discount rate.? there is a change in the amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, orin future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine thosepayments, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities, on the basis of the revised lease paymentsand the unchanged discount rate, unless the change in the lease payments results from a changein floating interest rates, in which case a revised discount is applied to the present value.

31.1.4 Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The Group chooses not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases ofport and terminal facilities, buildings, machinery and equipment, furniture and fixture and otherequipment, motor vehicles and cargo ships, other short-term leases and leases of low-value assets.A short-term lease is a lease that at the commencement date, has a lease term of 12 months or lessand does not contain a call option. A lease of low-value assets is that, the value of the underlyingasset is less than RMB 50,000 when it is new. The Group shall recognize the lease paymentsassociated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets in profit or loss or cost of relatedassets on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

31.1.5 Lease modifications

A lease modification should be accounted for as a separate lease if both of the following apply:

? the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more

underlying assets.? the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-aloneprice for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone priceaccording to the circumstances of the particular contract.

For a lease medication that is not accounted for as a separate lease, at the effective date of the leasemodification, the Group should allocate the consideration in the modified contract, determine thelease term of the modified lease and remeasure the lease liability by discounting the revisedpayments using a revised discount rate.

For lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease or narrow the term of the lease, theGroup should decrease the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset with any gain or loss relatingto the partial or full termination of the lease should be recognized in profit or loss. Forremeasurement of lease liabilities from all other lease modifications, a corresponding adjustment ismade to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset.

31.2 The Group as Lessor

31.2.1 Separating components of a lease

Where a contract contains both lease components and non-lease components, the Group shallapportion the contract consideration in accordance with the provisions of the revenue standards onthe apportionment of the transaction price, based on the respective individual prices of the leasecomponents and the non-lease components.

31.2.2 Classification of leases

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all therisks and rewards of ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

31.2.2.1 The Group as lessor under operating leases

The Group recognizes lease receipts from operating leases as rental income the straight-line methodover the respective periods of the lease term. The Group capitalizes initial direct costs incurred inconnection with operating leases and apportions those costs profit or loss for the period as anexpense over the lease term on the same basis as the recognition of lease income.

Variable lease receipts acquired by the Group in connection with operating leases that are notincluded in the lease receipts are recognized in profit or loss when incurred.

31.2.2.2 The Group as lessor under finance leases

At the commencement date, the Group recognizes a finance lease receivable at the amount equal tothe net lease investment with assets under finance leases derecognized. The net lease investment isthe sum of any unguaranteed residual value and the present value of the lease receipts over the leaseterm discounted at the interest rate implicit in lease.

? fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) paid by the lessee, less any lease

incentives.? variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate.? the exercise price of a purchase option, provided that it is reasonably determined that the

lessee will exercise the option.? payments for terminating the lease option, provided that the lease term reflects that the lessee

will exercise the option to terminate the lease.? residual value of the guarantee provided to the Group by the lessee, a party related to the

lessee and an independent third party with the financial ability to fulfil guaranteed obligations.

Variable payments receivable not included in the net investment in the lease are recognized in profitor loss when they arise.

Interest income for each period over the lease term is calculated and recognized by the Group at afixed periodic rate.

31.2.3 Subleases

As a lessor of the sublease, the Group accounts for the original lease contract and the subleasecontract as two separate contracts. The Group classifies the subleases based on the right-of-useassets generating from the original lease rather than the underlying assets of the original lease.

31.2.4 Lease modifications

The Group accounts for a modification to an operating lease as a new lease from the effective dateof the modification, considering any lease advances or receivables relating to the original lease asthe lease receipts for the new lease.

The Group should account for the modification to a finance lease as a separate lease if both of thefollowings are satisfied:

? The modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more

underlying assets; and? The consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone

price for the increase in scope with any appropriate adjustment to that stand-alone price.

If the lease would have been classified as a finance lease had the modification been in effect

at the inception date, the Group should apply the requirements of contract modification andrenegotiation under the ASBE No. 22.

31.2.5 Sale and leaseback transactions

31.2.5.1 The Group as the seller-lessee

The Group assesses and determines whether the transfer of an asset in a sale and leasebacktransaction constitutes a sale according to the requirements of revenue standards. If the transfer ofan asset does not constitute a sale, the Group should continue to recognize the transferred asset andshould recognize a financial liability at an amount equal to the transfer proceeds applying the ASBENo. 22 . If the transfer of an asset is a sale, the Group should measure the right-of-use asset arisingfrom the leaseback at the proportion of the original carrying amount of the asset that relates to theright of use, and recognize only any gain or loss that relates to the rights transferred to the lessor.

31.2.5.2 The Group as the buyer-lessor

If the transfer of an asset in a sale and leaseback transaction does not constitutes a sale, the Groupdoes not recognize the transferred asset, but a financial asset at an amount equal to the transferproceeds, and accounts for such financial asset under the ASBE No. 22. If the transfer of an assetconstitutes a sale, the Group accounts for the purchase of the asset in accordance with otherapplicable ASBEs and accounts for the lease of the asset.

32. Exchange of Non-Monetary Assets

When a non-monetary assets transaction has commercial substance and the fair value of the assetsreceived or surrendered can be measured reliably. For assets received, the fair value of the assetssurrendered and relevant payable taxes shall be regarded as the transaction cost of the assetsreceived at initial recognition. For assets surrendered, the difference between the fair value and thecarrying value of the asset surrendered shall be recognized in profit or loss for the period. Whenthere is clear evidence indicating that the fair value of the assets received is more reliable, the costof assets received and surrendered shall be calculated in different ways. For the assets received, thefair value of the asset received and related taxes payable are recognized as the cost at initialrecognition. For the assets surrendered, at derecognition, the difference between the fair value ofthe assets received and the carrying amount of the assets surrendered shall be recognized in profitor loss for the period.

Forthe assets surrendered, at derecognition, no profit or loss is recognized.

33. Discontinued Operation

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that can be clearly distinguished, either hasbeen disposed of or is classified as held for sale, and meets one of the following conditions:

(1) Such component represents a separate major line of business or geographic area of

operations.

(2) Such component is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of

business or geographic area of operations.

(3) Such component is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.

Gains or losses from discontinued operations are presented separately from those from continuingoperations in the income statement. Operating gains or losses such as impairment losses fromdiscontinued operations and the amount of reversals, and the gains or losses from disposals arepresented as discontinued operations. For discontinued operations presented in the current period,the Group restates the information previously presented as gains or losses from continuingoperations in the financial statements for the period as discontinued operations in the comparableaccounting period.

34. Safety production cost

According to the Administrative Measures for the Collection and Utilization of Enterprise WorkSafety Funds (Cai Zi [2022] No. 136) jointly issued by the Ministry of Finance and the EmergencyDepartment on 13 December 2022, safety production cost set aside by the Group is directly includedin the cost of relevant products or recognized in profit or loss for the period, and transferred to thespecial reserve simultaneously. When safety production cost set aside is utilized, if the costsincurred can be categorized as expenditure, the costs incurred should be charged against the specialreserve. If the costs set aside are used to build up fixed assets, the costs should be charged toconstruction in progress, and reclassified to fixed assets when the safety projects are ready forintended use. Meantime, expenditures in building up fixed assets are directly charged against thespecial reserve with the accumulated depreciation recognized at the same amount. Depreciation willnot be made in the future period on such fixed assets.

35. Share-based payments

A share-based payment is a transaction which the Group grants equity instruments, in return forservices rendered by employees or other parties. The Group's share-based payments include equity-settled share-based payments.

(V) CRITICAL JUDGMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND KEY

ASSUMPTIONS AND UNCERTAINTIES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

In the application of accounting policies and accounting estimates as set out in Note (IV), the Groupis required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of items inthe financial statements that cannot be measured accurately, due to the internal uncertainty of theoperating activities. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are based on historicalexperiences of the Group's management as well as other factors that are considered to be relevant.Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The Group regularly reviews the judgments, estimates and assumptions on a going concern basis.Changes in accounting estimates which only affect the current period should be recognized incurrent period; changes which not only affect the current but the future periods should be recognizedin current and future periods. At the balance sheet date, key assumptions and uncertainties in criticaljudgments and accounting estimates that are likely to lead to significant adjustments to the bookvalues of assets and liabilities in the future are:

Goodwill impairment

For the purpose of impairment testing, the present value of the expected future cash flows of theassets group or portfolio including goodwill shall be calculated, and such expected future cash flowsshall be estimated. Meantime, a pre-tax rate shall be determined that should reflect the time valueof money on the current market and the specific interest risks.

Recognition of deferred income tax

The Group calculates and makes provision for deferred tax liabilities according to the profitdistribution plan of subsidiaries, associates and the joint ventures subject to the related law. Forretained earnings which are not allocated by the investment company, since the profits will be usedto invest the company's daily operation and future development, no deferred tax liabilities arerecognized. If the actually distributed profits in the future are more or less than those expected,corresponding deferred tax liabilities will be recognized or reversed at the earlier of the date onwhich the profit distribution plan is changed and the date on which the profit distribution is declared,in profit and loss for the period.

(V) CRITICAL JUDGMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND KEY

ASSUMPTIONS AND UNCERTAINTIES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

Recognition of deferred income tax - continued

Deferred tax assets are recognized based on the deductible temporary difference and thecorresponding tax rate, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be availableagainst which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. If the actual taxable income inthe future is more or less than that expected, corresponding deferred tax assets will be recognizedor reversed in profit or loss for the period in which they are actually incurred.

Estimated useful lives and residual values of fixed assets and intangible assets

The Group assesses the estimated useful lives and residual values of its fixed assets and intangibleassets. Such assessment is made by reference to the historical experience of actual useful lives andresidual values of fixed assets and intangible assets of a similar nature and function, and may subjectto significant changes due to technical innovation and fierce industry competition. Where theestimated useful lives and residual values of fixed assets and intangible assets are less than theprevious estimates, the Group will increase the depreciation and amortization, or write off oreliminate the technically obsolete fixed assets or intangible assets.

(VI) CHANGES IN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING

ESTIMATES

1. Changes in significant accounting policies and their effects

1.1 Interpretation No. 16 of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises

The Interpretation No. 16 of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises (the "InterpretationNo. 16") was issued by the Ministry of Finance on 30 November 2022, which stipulated theaccounting treatment concerning the exemption of initial recognition of deferred income tax relatingto assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction.

The Interpretation No. 16 revised the coverage of exemption of the initial recognition of deferredincome tax in the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 18 - Income Tax, and specifiedthat the relevant provisions on the exemption of initial recognition of deferred tax liabilities anddeferred tax assets are not applicable to a single transaction (not a business combination) that affectsneither the accounting profit nor taxable income (or deductible losses) at the time of transaction,and where the assets and liabilities initially recognized generate equal taxable temporary differencesand deductible temporary differences. The Interpretation became effective from 1 January 2023 andcould be early applied. The Group early applied the Interpretation in the current year, and accountedfor the single transactions retrospectively that occurred between the beginning of the earliestpresentation period of the financial statements and 31 December 2022, and restated the comparativefinancial statements. The impact on the relevant items is as follows:

When testing the goodwill for impairment, the Group compares the carrying amount of relatedassets group and portfolio of assets group (including goodwill) with the recoverable amount. If therecoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, the difference is included in profit or loss forthe period. The Group determines the recoverable amount of the assets group and portfolio of assetsgroup that generate goodwill at fair value less cost of disposal or at present value of expected futurecash flows. The fair value is determined using market approach. The present value of cash flows isestimated based on the forecast of cash flows for 5 years to 26 years detailed forecast period andsubsequent forecast period. The estimated future cash flows for the detailed forecast period arebased on the business plan established by the management; the expected future cash flows for thesubsequent forecast period are determined in conjunction with the level of the final year of thedetailed forecast period, combined with the Group's business plans, industry trends and inflationrates. The growth rate adopted will not exceed the long-term average growth rate of the countrywhere the assets group and portfolio of assets group are located. The key assumptions used by theGroup in estimating the present value of future cash flows include growth rate and discount rate etc.The parameters of key assumptions determined by the Group's management are in line with theGroup's historical experience or external source of information.

(3) Description of performance obligations

The Group provides wharf services, bonded logistics services and other services. These services areobligations satisfied over time. For wharf services, as the handling time for containers and bulkcargos is short, the management believes that it is an appropriate method to recognize the fulfillmentof performance obligation and revenue upon the completion of the services. For bonded logisticsservices and other services, the customers evenly obtain and consume economic benefits from theGroup's performance of contract, meanwhile charging rules as agreed in contract terms usuallyadopt daily/month/yearly basis. During the process of rendering services, the Group recognizesrevenue using the straight-line method.

Part of the Group's handling contracts are established with discount terms, i.e. the customers whosebusiness volume reaches agreed level, are granted with preferential charge rates or discounts. Atthe end of the period, as the business quantity finally realized within the contract period is uncertain,the contract consideration is subject to variable factors. The management includes this part ofdiscount in other payables and provisions, rather than including it in the transaction prices. At theend of the period, the variable considerations arising from sales discount are set out in Note (VIII)33 (3) and Note (VIII) 42.

The Group closely monitors the effects of changes in the foreign exchange rates on the Group'scurrency risk exposures. According to the current risk exposure and judgment on the exchange ratemovements, management considers it is unlikely that the exchange rate changes in the future oneyear will result in significant loss to the Group.

Sensitivity analysis on currency risk

The assumption for the sensitivity analysis on currency risk is that all the cash flow hedges andhedges of a net investment in a foreign operation are highly effective. On the basis of the aboveassumption, where all other variables are held constant, the reasonably possible changes in theforeign exchange rate may have the following pre-tax effect on the profit or loss for the period andshareholders' equity:

(XI) RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - continued

2. Interest rate risk - changes in cash flows

Risk of changes in cash flows of financial instruments arising from interest rate changes is mainlyrelated to bank loans with floating interest rate. (See Note (VIII) 26 and Note (VIII) 37). The Groupcontinuously and closely monitors the impact of interest rate changes on the Group's interest raterisk. The Group's policy is to maintain these borrowings at floating rates. Presently, the Group hasno arrangement such as interest rate swaps etc.

Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk

Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk is based on the following assumptions:

? Fluctuations of market interest rate can affect the interest income or expense of a financialinstrument with floating interest rate;? For a financial instrument at fair value with fixed interest rate, the fluctuations of market interest rate

can only affect its interest income or expense;? For a derivative financial instrument designated as hedging instrument, the fluctuations of marketinterest rate affects its fair value, and all interest rate hedging are expected to be highly effective;? The changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments and other financial assets and liabilitiesare calculated using cash flow discounting method by applying the market interest rate at balancesheet date.

On the basis of above assumptions, where the other variables held constant, the pre-tax effect ofpossible and reasonable changes in interest rate on the profit or loss for the period and shareholders'equity are as follows:

Item	Changes in interest rate	The current period		The prior period
		Effect on profits	Effect on shareholders' equity	Effect on profits	Effect on shareholders' equity
Short-term borrowings and long-term borrowings	1% increase	-218,624,405.40	-218,624,405.40	-206,916,565.57	-206,916,565.57
Short-term borrowings and long-term borrowings	1% decrease	218,624,405.40	218,624,405.40	206,916,565.57	206,916,565.57

3. Liquidity risk

In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cashequivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group's operations and mitigatethe effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The management monitors the utilization of bankborrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.

As at 30 June 2023, the Group had total current liabilities in excess of total current assets of RMB1,400,548,100.60. At 30 June 2023, the Group had available and unused line of credit and bondsamounting to RMB 67,024,496,484.81, which is greater than the balance of the net current liabilities,and may obtain fund support within the line of credit and bonds as necessary. Therefore, the Group'smanagement believes that the Group has no significant liquidity risk.
