2. Development stage and cyclical characteristic of the industry in which the Company operatesand its industry position during the reporting periodThe port industry is a crucial cornerstone for national economic and social progress, and is closelylinked to global economic and trade development. During the first half of 2019, the global economymaintained its growth in general. Nonetheless, the Company faced challenges as well as opportunitiesarising from downside risks, increasing global uncertainties caused by trade frictions, restructuringof global trade pattern, the slowdown in growth of global container shipping, the downshift ofdomestic port business, severe competition for investment in emerging markets overseas, technologyadvancement in the port and shipping industry.During the first half of 2019, challenges in global trade environment has affected the foundation forglobal economic growth. According to the statistics of Clarkson Research Services Limited, it isexpected that the global container throughput would reach approximately 100.1 million TEUs duringthe first half of 2019, representing a slight year-on-year increase of 0.5%, which was down 6.7percentage points as compared with the corresponding period in 2018. According to the statisticspublished by the Ministry of Transport of the PRC, the container throughput handled by PRC portstotalled 126.99 million TEUs from January to June 2019, representing an increase of 5.1% year-on-year on a cumulative basis.During the first half of 2019, the volume of cargo export of certain global major routes has shrunk.Despite the upgrade towards large-scale vessels, the liners implemented measures such as low-speedvoyage or temporary suspension of shipping in order to reduce the impact of growth of shippingcapacity on the market. The fundamentals of most routes were still weak and market freight rate waslowered from the relatively high level at the end of 2018. It was not until early April when manyroutes increased the scale of their vessels and hence increased their shipping capacity that thedownward trend of market freight rate has ceased. Subsequently, liners successively made severalrounds of freight rate rise, but the price rise failed to sustain and only lead to slight fluctuation of spotmarket freight rate due to lack of cargoes.

X Risks faced by the Company and counter measures

1. External risks

The external risks mainly come from uncertainties brought by the fluctuations in global economicand political situation and the slowdown of domestic economic growth in 2019. On the internationalfront, the rise of populism has led to more uneven growth among developed economies. Amid therising trend of trade protectionism, the trade frictions provoked by the US continued to escalate as itunfolded around the globe. The increasing unpredictability in the situation of the Middle East gaverise to material uncertainties regarding the trend of crude oil price and global inflation. Risksgenerated by such uncertainties may affect the container shipping market and the demand for majorbulk commodities to a certain extent and hence brought about certain challenges on the overseasoperation of the Company. Domestically, the macro-economy of the PRC delivered weakperformance in the second quarter and the domestic economic environment will continue to be underthe influence of various unstable factors in the second half of the year, including the unsustainableinvestments in real estate, the continuous pressures faced by the operation of business entities andexport business being weighed down by the international demand and trade friction. As such, theoperation and revenue of the Company’s port business may face certain uncertainties.In response to the potential external risks, in particular, the risks of uncertainties in relation to foreigntrade and the import and export caused by the Sino-US trade friction, the Company will seizeopportunities arising from a new round of high-level opening-up policy of the PRC by proactivelycarrying out the major strategies such as the “Belt and Road” Initiative and the development ofGuangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area, while consistently strengthening the efforts inachieving our business objectives. We will continue to enhance the capabilities in risks identification,warning and resolution with a view to effectively preventing and mitigating relevant risks. TheCompany will timely adjust its business operation strategies with constant endeavors made to trackand study the change of trends in the trade market and cargo sources, at the same time upgrading theservice quality and strengthening its business capabilities in the global market under the principle of“improvement in both quality and efficiency” with an aim to retain clients and sustain robust growth

China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. Interim Report 2019

of the port business.

2. Internal risks

The internal risks of the Company mainly come from the risks of credit default of customers, labourshortage and compliance of overseas investment projects. During the reporting period, the Company’srisks in relation to defaults of customers increased significantly due to negative information in themarket such as bankruptcy, heavy indebtedness and illegal operation of shipping companies. Thelabour shortage faced by certain subsidiaries in relation to their outsourced business remainedprominent. Factors such as staff turnover, aging staff and low skill level have affected theimprovement of production efficiency of such subsidiaries and hence brought uncertain risks to theCompany's sustainable development. As the Company’s overseas projects were gradually put intooperation, the legal and policy compliance requirements of countries and regions where ourinvestments are located will pose uncertain risks and challenges to the Company's global operations.In light of the potential internal risks, the Company will attach great importance to the developmentof the internal control system of its subsidiaries in a bid to prevent and control internal risks. Withregard to the default risks of customers, on the one hand, risk identification and warning will beintensified through application of the warning system on receivables; on the other hand, preventionand control measures will be formulated and implemented to ensure the effective control of risks andprotect the interests of the Company. As for the issue of labour shortage of the subsidiaries, theCompany will not only actively study the employment policy in relation to outsourcing, formulate along-term incentive system for outsourcing and improve the remuneration package of outsourcingpersonnel, thereby enhancing labor productivity; but also press ahead the technological upgrade foradvancement of the automated operation level at the terminals, so as to reduce its reliance onoutsourcing personnel. Regarding the compliance risks of overseas investment projects, the Companywill step up its efforts in the establishment of compliance management system in accordance with theregulatory requirements of the places where its projects are located, as well as reinforce themanagement and control throughout the process of project investment, engineering construction andprocurement, thereby strictly prevent legal compliance risks.

- 11 -

II. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued

Basis of accounting and principle of measurement - continued

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 amounts 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 whether thatprice is directly observable or estimated using valuation technique. Fair value measurement and/ordisclosure in the financial statements are determined according to the above basis.

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 valuemeasurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

? Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that theentity can access at the measurement date;? Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observablefor the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and? Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Going Concern

The Group assessed its ability to continue as a going concern for the 12 months from 30 June 2019and did not notice any events or circumstances that may cast significant doubt upon its ability tocontinue as a going concern.

5. The accounting treatment of business combinations involving or not involvingenterprises under common control

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 in 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.

ESTIMATES - continued

5. The accounting treatment of business combinations involving or not involvingenterprises under common control - 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 acquisition. 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 in the periods when theyare incurred.

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

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 the cost of combination is still less thanthe acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets afterwards, theacquirer recognizes the remaining difference immediately in profit or loss for the current period.

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

6. Preparation of 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; or has the ability to use its power over theinvestee to affect its returns. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if there areindications that there are changes of the above elements of the definition of control.

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiaries andceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary.

ESTIMATES - continued

6. Preparation of consolidated financial statements - continued

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

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, as appropriate, in the consolidated income statement and consolidatedstatement of cash flows.

No matter when the business combination occurs in the reporting period, subsidiaries acquiredthrough a business combination involving enterprises under common control or the party beingabsorbed under merger by absorption are included in the Group's scope of consolidation as if theyhad been included in the scope of consolidation from the date when they first came under thecommon control of the ultimate controlling party. Their operating results and cash flows from thedate when they first came under the common control of the ultimate controlling party are included,as appropriate, in the consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of cash flows.

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.

All significant intra-group balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

The portion of subsidiaries' equity that is not attributable to the parent is treated as minority interestsand presented as "minority interests" in the consolidated balance sheet under shareholders' equity.The portion of net profits or losses of subsidiaries for the period attributable to minority interests ispresented as "minority interests" in the consolidated income statement under the "net profit" lineitem.

When the amount of loss for the period attributable to the minority shareholders of a subsidiaryexceeds the minority shareholders' portion of the opening balance of shareholders' equity of thesubsidiary, the excess amount is still allocated against minority interests.

Acquisition of minority interests or disposals of interests in a subsidiary that do not result in theloss of control over the subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amountsof the parent's interests and minority interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relativeinterests in the subsidiary. The difference between the amount by which the minority interests areadjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is adjusted to capital reserve. If thecapital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the excess is adjusted against retainedearnings.

6. Preparation of consolidated financial statements - continued

For the stepwise acquisition of equity interest till acquiring control after a few transactions andleading to business combination not involving enterprises under common control, this should bedealt with based on whether this belongs to 'package deal': if it belongs to 'package deal',transactions will be dealt as transactions to acquire control. If it does not belong to 'package deal',transactions to acquire control on acquisition date will be under accounting treatment, the fair valueof acquirees' shares held before acquisition date will be revalued, and the difference between fairvalue and book value will be recognized in profit or loss of the current period; if acquirees' sharesheld before acquisition date involve in changes of other comprehensive income and other equity ofowners under equity method, this will be transferred to income of acquisition date.

When the Group loses control over a subsidiary due to disposal of equity investment or otherreasons, any retained interest is re-measured 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 in the period in which control is lost, and the goodwill is offset accordingly.Other comprehensive income associated with investment in the former subsidiary is reclassified toinvestment income in the period in which control is lost.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary in two or more arrangements (transactions), termsand conditions of the arrangements (transactions) and their economic effects are considered. Oneor more of the following indicate that the Group shall account for the multiple arrangements as a'package deal':

? They are entered into at the same time or in contemplation of each other, or? They form a complete transaction designed to achieve an overall commercial effect, or? The occurrence of one transaction is dependent on the occurrence of at least one other

transaction, or? One transaction alone is not economically justified, but it is economically justified when

considered together with other transactions.Where the transactions of disposal of equity investments in a subsidiary until the loss of control areassessed as a package deal, these transactions are accounted for as one transaction of disposal of asubsidiary with loss of control. Before losing control, the difference of consideration received ondisposal and the share of net assets of the subsidiary continuously calculated from acquisition dateis recognized as other comprehensive income. When losing control, the cumulated othercomprehensive income is transferred to profit or loss of the period of losing control. If thetransactions of disposal of equity investments in a subsidiary are not assessed as a package deal,these transactions are accounted for as unrelated transactions.

7. Types of joint arrangements and the accounting treatment of joint operation

There are two types of joint arrangements - joint operations and joint ventures. The classificationof joint arrangements under is determined based on the rights and obligations of parties to the jointarrangements by considering the structure, the legal form of the arrangements, the contractual termsagreed by the parties to the arrangement. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the partiesthat have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities,relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that havejoint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.

Its solely-incurred expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.The Group accounts for the recognized assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to itsinterest in a joint operation in accordance with the requirements applicable to the particular assets,liabilities, revenues and expenses.

8. Recognition criteria of 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, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible toknown amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

9. Foreign currency transactions

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.

Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated to the amounts infunctional currency at the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions, while the amounts infunctional currency remain unchanged. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fairvalue are re-translated at the spot exchange rate 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: assetsand liabilities on the balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rate prevailing at the balancesheet date; shareholders' equity items are translated at the spot exchange rates at the dates on whichsuch items arose; all items in the income statement as well as items reflecting the distribution ofprofits are translated at exchange rates that approximate the actual spot exchange rates on the datesof the transactions; 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 the cash flows of a foreign subsidiaryare translated at average exchange rate 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 opening balances and the comparative figures of previous year are presented at the translatedamounts in the previous year's financial statements.

On disposal of the Group's entire interest in a foreign operation, or upon loss of control overforeign operation due to disposal of certain interest in it or other reasons, the Group transfers theaccumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financial statements of this foreignoperation attributable to the owners' equity of the Company and presented under owners' equity,to profit or loss in the period in which the disposal occurs.

In case of a disposal of part equity investments or other reason leading to lower interest percentagein foreign operations but does not result in the Group losing control over a foreign operation, theproportionate share of accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financialstatements are re-attributed to minority interests and are not recognized in profit and loss. For partialdisposals of equity interests in foreign operations which are associates or joint ventures, theproportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financialstatements of foreign operations is reclassified to profit or loss.

10. Financial instruments

The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability when it becomes a party to thecontractual provisions 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, relevant transaction costs are directlyrecognized in profit or loss; transaction costs relating to other categories of financial assets andfinancial liabilities are included in the value initially recognized. For accounts receivablerecognized that do not contain a significant financing component or a financing component includedin the contracts less than one year which are not considered by the Group, which are within thescope of Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.14 - Revenue (hereinafter referred to as"new standards for revenue"), transaction prices defined in the standards shall be adopted on initialrecognition.

The effective interest method is a method that is used in the calculation of the amortized cost of afinancial asset or a financial liability and in the allocation of the interest income or interest expensein profit or loss over the relevant period.

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 a financialasset or to the amortized cost of a financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, theGroup estimates future cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial asset orfinancial liability (for example, prepayment, extension, call option or similar options) but shall notconsider the expected credit losses.

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, such asset is classified into financial assets measured at amortized cost,which include cash and bank balances, notes receivable ,accounts receivable ,other receivables andlong-term receivables etc..

Financial assets at FVTOCI are presented as otherdebt investments. Other debt investments due within one year (inclusive) since the balance sheetdate are presented as non-current assets due within one year. Other debt investments due within oneyear (inclusive) upon acquisition are presented as other current assets.

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 other equity 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, which are presentedas held-for-trading financial assets other than derivative financial assets. Such financial assets atFVTPL which may fall due more than one year since the balance sheet date and will be held morethan one year are presented as other non-current financial assets.

? Any financial assets that does not qualify for amortized cost measurement or measurement at

FVTOCI or designated at FVTOCI are classified into financial assets at FVTPL.

? Upon initial recognition, in order to eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatch andqualified hybrid financial instrument combines financial asset with embedded derivatives, theGroup will irrevocably designated it as financial liabilities at FVTPL.

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 usingeffective interest method. The Group calculates and recognizes interest income through book valueof financial assets multiplying effective interest, except for the following circumstances:

? For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets with credit impairment, the

Group calculates and recognizes its interest income based on amortized cost of the financialasset and the effective interest through credit adjustment since initial recognition.

10.1.2 Financial assets at FVTOCI

Impairment losses or gains related to financial assets at FVTOCI, interest income measured usingeffective interest method and exchange gains or losses are recognized into profit or loss for thecurrent period, except for the above circumstances, changes in fair value of the financial assets areincluded in other comprehensive income. Amounts charged to profit or loss for every period equalto the amount charged to profit or loss as it is measured at amortized costs. When the financial assetis derecognized, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensiveincome shall be removed from other comprehensive income and recognized in profit or loss.

Non-trading equity instrument investments are designated as financial assets at FVTOCI, thecumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income allocated to thepart derecognized are transferred and included in retained earnings. During the period in which theGroup holds the non-trading equity instrument, revenue from dividends is recognized in profit orloss for the current period when the Group has established the right of collecting dividends; it isprobable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Group; and the number of dividendscan be measured reliably.

Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value. Gain or loss 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

The Group makes accounting treatment on impairment and recognizes loss allowance for expectedcredit losses ("ECL") on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, financial instrumentsclassified as at FVTOCI, lease receivables and contract assets.

The Group makes a loss allowance against the amount of lifetime ECL of the contract assets oraccounts receivable that exclude significant financing component or do not consider the financingcomponent in the contract within one year arising from transactions adopting New Standards forRevenue, contract assets and accounts receivable that include significant financing component andlease receivables arising from transactions adopting New Standards for Lease.

For financial instruments other than purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, theGroup assesses changes in credit risks of the relevant financial asset since initial recognition at eachbalance sheet date. If the credit loss of the financial instrument has been significantly increasedsince initial recognition, the Group will make a loss allowance at an amount of expected credit lossduring the whole life; if not, the Group will make a loss allowance for the financial instrument atan amount in the future 12-month expected credit losses. Except for the financial assets classifiedas at FVTOCI, increase in or reversal of credit loss allowance is included in profit or loss asloss/gain on impairment. For the financial assets classified as at FVTOCI, the Group recognizescredit loss allowance in other comprehensive income and recognizes the loss/gain on impairmentin profit or loss, while the Group does not decrease the carrying amount of such financial assets inthe balance sheet.

The Group has made loss allowances against amount of expected credit losses during the previousaccounting period. However, if the credit risk of a financial instrument has not increasedsignificantly since initial recognition at the balance sheet date, the Group will measure the lossallowance of that financial instrument at the amount of the expected credit losses in the future 12months. The reversed amount of loss allowances arising from such circumstances shall be includedin profit or loss as impairment gains.

10.2.1 Significant increase of credit risk

In assessing whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Groupcompares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with therisk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition. For loancommitments, the date that the Group becomes a party to the irrevocable commitment is consideredto be the date of initial recognition in the application of criteria related to the financial instrumentfor impairment.

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

? Significant changes in internal price indicators of credit risk as a result of a change in credit

risk;? Other changes in the rates or terms of an existing financial instrument that would be

significantly different if the instrument was newly originated or issued at the balance sheet

date (such as more stringent covenants, increased amounts of collateral or guarantees, or

higher income coverage);? Significant changes in external market indicators of credit risk for a particular financial

instrument or similar financial instruments with the same expected life. These indicators

include the credit spread, the credit swap prices for the borrower, the length of time or the

extent to which the fair value of a financial asset has been less than its amortized cost and

other market information related to the borrower, such as changes in the price of a

borrower’s debt and equity instruments;? Significant changes in actual or expected external credit rating for the financial instruments;? An actual or expected internal credit rating downgrade for the borrower;? 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;? An actual or expected significant change in the operating results of the debtor;? Significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same borrower;? Significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the

debtor;? 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’s

economic incentive to make scheduled contractual payments or to otherwise have an effect

on the probability of a default occurring;? Significant changes in circumstances expected to reduce the debtor’s economic incentive to

make scheduled contractual payments;

? Expected changes in the loan documentation including an expected breach of contract that

may lead to covenant waivers or amendments, interest payment holidays, interest rate step-ups, requiring additional collateral or guarantees, or other changes to the contractualframework of the financial instrument;? Significant changes in the expected performance and behavior of the debtor;? Changes in the entity’s credit management approach in relation to the financial instrument;? Past due of contract payment.

At balance sheet date, if the Group judges that the financial instrument solely has lower credit risk,the Group will assume that the credit risk of the financial instrument has not been significantlyincreased since initial recognition.

10.2.2 Credit-impaired financial assets

When the Group expect the occurrence of one or more events which may cause adverse impact onfuture cash flows of a financial asset, the financial asset will become a credit-impaired financialassets. Objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired includes but is not limited to thefollowing observable events:

? Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;? A breach of contract by the debtor, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal

payments;? The creditor, for economic or legal reasons relating to the debtor’s financial difficulty,

granting a concession to the debtor;? It becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial

reorganizations;? The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial

difficulties of the issuer or the debtor;? Purchase or originate a financial asset with a large scale of discount, which reflects facts

of credit loss incurred.

10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss

The Group uses a provision matrix to determine the credit losses for accounts receivable, contractassets and debt investment based on a portfolio basis. The Group classifies financial instrumentsinto different groups based on common risk characteristics. Common credit risk characteristicsinclude credit risk rating, the date of initial recognition, remaining contractual maturity, industryof borrower and geographical location of the borrower etc.

10.2 Impairment of financial assets - continued

10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss - continued

The Group determines expected credit losses of relevant financial instruments using the followingmethods:

? For a financial asset, a credit loss is the present value of the difference between the contractual

cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that the Groupexpects to receive;? For a lease receivable, a credit loss is the present value of the difference between the

contractual cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that theGroup expects to receive;? For a financial asset with credit-impaired at the balance sheet date, but not purchased or

originated credit-impaired, credit losses is the difference between the asset’s gross carryingamount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’soriginal effective interest rate.

The factors reflected in methods of measurement of expected credit losses include an unbiased andprobability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes; timevalue of money, reasonable and supportable information about past events, current conditions andforecasts on future economic status at balance sheet date without unnecessary additional costs orefforts.

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 carrying amount ofthe financial asset, which constitutes the 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:

? The contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire;? The financial asset has been transferred and substantially all the risks and rewards of

ownership of the financial asset is transferred to the transferee; or? Although the financial asset has been transferred, the Group neither transfers nor retains

substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset but does not have

retained control of the financial asset.

10.3 Transfer of financial assets - continued

If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of afinancial asset, but retains control of the financial asset, the Group will recognize the financial assetto 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 relevantliabilities 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.

For a transfer of a financial asset categorized into those measured at amortized cost and thosemeasured at FVTOCI in its entirety that satisfies the derecognition criteria, the difference betweenthe carrying amount of the financial asset transferred and the sum of the consideration receivedfrom the transfer and accumulated changes in fair value initially recorded in other comprehensiveincome is recognized in profit or loss. For the non-tradable equity instrument designated as financialassets at FVTOCI, cumulative gain or loss that has been recognized in other comprehensive incomeshould be removed from other comprehensive income but be recognized in retained earnings.

For partial transfer of financial asset that satisfies the derecognition criteria, the carrying amount ofthe transferred financial asset is allocated between the part that is derecognized and the part that iscontinuously involved, 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. For non-tradable equity instrument designated asfinancial assets at FVTOCI, cumulative gain or loss that has been recognized in othercomprehensive income should be removed from other comprehensive income but be recognized inretained earnings.

For a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that does not satisfy the derecognition criteria, theGroup will continuously recognize the transferred financial asset in its entirety. Considerationsreceived due to transfer of assets should be recognized as a liability upon receipts.

10.4 Classification of financial liabilities 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 liability 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 financial liabilities held for trading (including derivativesclassified as financial liabilities) and those designated as at FVTPL. Financial liabilities at FVTPLare presented as held-for-trading financial liabilities, except for derivative financial liabilitiespresented separately.

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

? It has been acquired principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term; or? It is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Group manages together

on initial recognition and there is objective evidence that the Group recently has an actualpattern of short-term profit-taking; or? It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and put into effect

as a hedging instrument.

A financial liability may be designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition when one of the followingconditions is satisfied:

? Such designation eliminates or significantly reduces accounting mismatch; or? The Group makes management and performance evaluation on a fair value basis, in

accordance with the Group's formally documented risk management or investment strategy,and reports to key management personnel on that basis.? The qualified hybrid financial instrument combines financial assets with embedded

derivatives.

Transaction financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value. Any gains or losses arisingfrom changes in the fair value and any dividend or interest expenses paid on the financial liabilitiesare recognized in profit or loss.

10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL - continued

The amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in thecredit risk of that liability shall be presented in other comprehensive income; Other changes in fairvalues are included in profit or loss for the current period. Upon the derecognition of such liability,the accumulated amount of change in fair value that is attributable to changes in the credit risk ofthat liability, which is recognized in other comprehensive income, is transferred to retained earnings.Any dividend or interest income earned on the financial liabilities are recognized in profit or loss.If the impact of the change in credit risk of such financial liability dealt with in the above way wouldcreate or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, the Group shall present all gains or losseson that liability (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of that liability) in profit or loss.

10.4.1.2 Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities, except for financial liabilities arising from transfer of financial assetsdoes not satisfy derecognition criteria or continue involvement of transferred financial assets, aresubsequently measured at amortized cost, with gain or loss arising from derecognition oramortization recognized in profit or loss.

That the Group and its counterparty modify or renegotiate the contract does not result inderecognition of a financial liability subsequently measured at amortized cost but result in changesin contractual cash flows; The Group will recalculate the carrying amount of the financial liability,with relevant gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. The Group will determine the carrying amountof the financial liability based on the present value of renegotiated or modified contractual cashflows discounted at the financial liability's original effective interest rate. For all costs or expensesarising from modification or renegotiation of the contract, the Group will adjust the modifiedcarrying amount of the financial liability and make amortization during the remaining term of themodified financial liability.

10.4.1.3 Financial guarantee contracts

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments toreimburse the holder of the contract for a loss occuring 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 are measured at the higher of: (1) amount of lossprovision, and (2) fluctuations in the cumulative amortization amount determined based on newstandards for revenue.

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. Issuing repurchasing, selling, canceling equity instruments ofthe Group are recognized as changes of equity. Changes of fair value of equity instruments is notrecognized by the Group. Transaction costs related to equity transactions are deducted 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 Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities

Where the Group has a legal right that is currently enforceable to set off 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. Financial assets and financialliabilities shall be presented separately in the balance sheet and shall not be offset except for theabove circumstances.

11. Accounts receivable

12. Inventories

12.1 Categories of inventories

Inventories include raw materials, merchandise reusable materials etc. Inventories are initiallymeasured at cost. Cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, conversion and otherexpenditures incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

12.2 Valuation method of inventories upon delivery

The actual cost of inventories upon delivery is calculated using the weighted average method.

12.3 Basis for determining net realizable value of inventories and provision methods for decline invalue 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. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course ofbusiness less the estimated costs of completion, the estimated costs necessary to make the sale andrelevant taxes. Net realizable value is determined on the basis of clear evidence obtained, aftertaking into consideration the purposes of inventories being held and effect of post balance sheetevents.

12.3 Basis for determining net realizable value of inventories and provision methods for decline invalue of inventories - continued

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 are eliminated exist so that the net realizable valueof inventories is higher than their cost, the original provision for decline in value is reversed andthe reversal is included in profit or loss for the period.

12.4 Inventory count system

The inventory count system adapted is the perpetual inventory system.

12.5 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.

13. Assets held for sale

When the Group withdraw the book value of certain assets or disposal group mainly throughdisposal instead of continual application, the assets should be classified as held-for-sale assets.

Assets or disposal group classified as held-for-sale assets should meet following conditions:

? The current status is available for immediate distribution according to similar transactions

of this category of assets or disposal group;? The transaction is likely to occur, i.e. the Group has made its resolution over the distribution

arrangements and acquired purchase commitment, and the distribution is going to be

fulfilled within a year.

If the holding company loses control of its subsidiary for reasons such as subsidiary disposalregardless of whether the holding company still keeps part of equity investment, once the proposedinvestment disposal meets the requirements of being classified as available for sale assets in theholding company's individual statement, all assets and liabilities of the subsidiary should beclassified as held-for-sale in consolidated financial statement.

The group's non-current assets and disposal group are measured at the lower of the book value andthe net value of fair value less costs to sell. Once the book value is higher than the net value of fairvalue less costs to sell, the book value should be adjusted to the net value and the excess should berecognized as impairment losses and provision for held-for-sale assets impairment should be made.A gain and a reverse in the previous provision for held-for-sale assets impairment can be recognizedfor any increase in fair value less costs to sell at subsequent balance sheet dates, to the extent thatit is not in excess of the cumulative impairment loss that has been recognized.

Non-current held-for-sale assets is not subject to depreciation and amortization. The creditorinterest and other expenses of disposal group classified as held-for-sale asset should still berecognized.

Once the associate or joint venture equity investment is completely or partly classified as held-for-sale assets, the classified part of the investment is not subject to equity method measurement.

14. Long-term equity investments

14.1 Basis for determining joint control and significant influence over investee

Control is archived when the Group has the power over the investee has the rights to variable returnsfrom its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. Jointcontrol is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an economic activity, and exists onlywhen the strategic financial and operating policy decisions relating to the activity require theunanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Significant influence is the power to participatein the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control overthose policies. When determining whether an investing enterprise is able to exercise control orsignificant influence over an investee, the effect of potential voting rights of the investee (forexample, warrants and convertible debts) held by the investing enterprises or other parties that arecurrently exercisable or convertible shall be considered.

14.2 Determination of investment cost

For a long-term equity investment acquired through a business combination involving enterprisesunder common control, the investment cost of the long-term equity investment is the attributableshare of the carrying amount of the shareholders' equity of the acquiree at the date of combination.The difference between the initial investment cost and the carrying amount of cash paid, non-cashassets transferred and liabilities assumed shall be adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capitalreserve is not sufficient, any excess shall be adjusted to retained earnings. If the consideration ofthe combination is satisfied by the issue of equity securities, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment shall be the share of the party being absorbed of the owners' equity 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 shall beadjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient, any excess shall beadjusted to retained earnings.

For a long-term equity investment acquired through business combination not involving enterprisesunder common control, the investment cost of the long-term equity investment acquired is the costof acquisition.

14.2 Determination of investment cost - continued

The absorbing party's or the purchaser's intermediary expenses (fees in respect of auditing, legalservices, valuation and consultancy services, etc.) and other administrative expenses attributable tothe business combination are recognized in profit or loss in the periods in which they ocurred.

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 withAccounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.22 - Financial Instruments: Recognition andMeasurement of (ASBE No. 22) and the additional investment cost.

14.3 Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss

14.3.1 A long-term equity investment 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 withdrawing investment would affect 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.

14.3.2 A long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method

Except associate and joint venture investment completely or partly classified as available for sale,the Group accounts for investment in associates and joint ventures using the equity method. Anassociate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and a joint venture is a jointarrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the netassets of the joint arrangement.

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.

ESTIMATES - continued

14. Long-term equity investments - continued

14.3.2 A long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method - continued

Under the equity method, the Group recognizes its share of the other comprehensive income andnet profit or loss of the investee for the period as other comprehensive income and investmentincome or loss respectively for the period, and the carrying amount of the long-term equityinvestment is adjusted accordingly. The carrying amount of the investment shall be reduced by theportion of any profit distributions or cash dividends declared by the investee that is distributed tothe investing enterprise. The investing enterprise shall adjust the carrying amount of the long-termequity investment for other changes in owners' equity of the investee (other than net profits or losses,other comprehensive income and profit distribution), and include the corresponding adjustment incapital reserve. The Group recognizes its share of the investee's net profit or loss based on the fairvalue of the investee's individually identifiable assets at the acquisition date after makingappropriate adjustments. Where the accounting policies and accounting period adopted by theinvestee are different from those of the investing enterprise, the investing enterprise shall adjust thefinancial statements of the investee to conform to its own accounting policies and accounting period,and recognize other comprehensive income and investment income or losses based on the adjustedfinancial statements. Unrealized profits or losses resulting from the Group's transactions and assetsinvested or sold that are not recognized as business transactions with its associates and joint venturesare recognized as investment income or loss to the extent that those attributable to the Group's,equity interest are eliminated. However, unrealized losses resulting from the Group's transactionswith its associates and joint ventures which represent impairment losses on the transferred assetsare not eliminated.

The Group discontinues recognizing its share of net losses of the investee after the carrying amountof the 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. If the assets sold by the Groupconstitute a business, the difference between the consideration acquired and the book value shall berecorded to profit or loss in full amount.

14.4 Disposal of long-term equity investments

On disposal of a long-term equity investment, the difference between the proceeds actually receivedand receivable and the carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss for the period.For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method, if the remaining interestafter disposal is still accounted for using the equity method, other comprehensive income previouslyrecognized for using the equity method is accounted for on the same basis as would have beenrequired if the investee had directly disposed of related assets or liabilities, and transferred to profitor loss for the period on a pro rata basis; owners' equity recognized due to changes in other owners'equity of the investee (other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profitdistribution) is transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis.

15. Investment properties

Investment property is property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. It includes aland use right that is leased out; a land use right held for transfer upon capital appreciation; and abuilding 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 in 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.

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.

16. Fixed assets

16.1 Recognition criteria for fixed assets

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. Upon being restructured into a stock company, the fixedassets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on the valuationamounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department.

16. Fixed assets - continued

16.1 Recognition criteria for fixed assets - continued

Subsequent expenditures incurred for the fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset andif probable the 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 in the period inwhich they are incurred.

16.2 Depreciation of each category of fixed assets

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

CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Category

CategoryEstimated useful livesEstimated residual rate (%)Annual depreciation rate (%)
Port and terminal facilities5-99 years5.000.96-19.00
Buildings10-50 years5.001.90-9.50
Mechanical equipment, furniture and others3-20 years5.004.75-31.67
Motor vehicles, cargo ships and tugboats5-25 years5.003.80-19.00

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

16.3 Other explanations

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 of 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 account for any change asa change in an accounting estimate.

17. 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.

18. 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 is 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 lasts for a continuous period 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 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 rate differences related to a specific-purpose borrowingdenominated in foreign currency are all capitalized. Exchange rate differences in connection withgeneral-purpose borrowings are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

19. Intangible assets

19.1 Intangible assets

Intangible assets include land use rights and port operating right.

An intangible asset is measured initially at cost. Upon being restructured into a stock company, theintangible assets initial contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on thevaluation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department. When anintangible asset with a finite useful life is available for use, its original cost is amortized over itsestimated useful life. Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortized. Theamortization method, estimated useful lives and estimated net residual value of various intangibleassets are as follows:

CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO., LTD.

Category

CategoryAmortization methodEstimated useful lives (years)Residual value (%)
Land use rightsStraight-line method40-99-
Port operating rightsStraight-line method30-35-
OthersStraight-line method5-50-

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

19.2 Internal research and development expenditure

Expenditure incurred during the research phase are recorded to profit or loss for the period uponincurring.

Costs incurred during the development phase, if satisfying all of the following criteria, arerecognized as intangible assets. Costs incurred during the development phase, if not satisfying thefollowing criteria are recorded to profit or loss for the period:

? It is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use orsale;? The Group has the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;? The Group can demonstrate the ways in which the intangible asset will generate economicbenefits, 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 the intangibleasset;? The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete thedevelopment and the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; and? 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,the Group recognizes all of them in profit or loss for the period.

20. Impairment of long-term assets

The Group assesses at the balance sheet date whether there is any indication that the long-termequity investments, investment properties measured at cost method, construction in progress, fixedassets and intangible assets with a finite useful life may be impaired. If there is any indication thatsuch assets may be impaired, recoverable amounts are estimated for such assets. Intangible assetswith indefinite useful life and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairmentannually, irrespective of whether there is any indication that the assets may be impaired.

Recoverable amount is estimated on individual basis. If it is not practical to estimate the recoverableamount of an individual asset, the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the asset belongswill be estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs ofdisposal and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. If therecoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount, the deficit isaccounted for as an impairment loss and is recognized in profit or loss.

ESTIMATES - continued

20. Impairment of long-term assets - continued

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least at the end of each year. For the purpose of impairmenttesting, goodwill is considered together with the related assets groups, i.e., goodwill is reasonablyallocated to the related assets groups or each of assets groups expected to benefit from the synergiesof the combination. In testing an assets group with goodwill for impairment, an impairment loss isrecognized if the recoverable amount of the assets group or sets of assets groups (including goodwill)is less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss is firstly allocated to reduce the carryingamount of any goodwill allocated to such assets group or sets of assets groups, and then to the otherassets of the group pro-rata basis on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset (other thangoodwill) in the group.

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

21. 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.

22. Employee benefits

22.1 The accounting treatment of short-term employee benefits

Actually occurred short-term employee benefits are recognized as liabilities, with a correspondingcharge to the profit or loss for the period or in the costs of relevant assets in the accounting periodin which employees provide services to the Group. Staff welfare expenses incurred by the Groupare recognized in profit or loss for the period or the costs of relevant assets based on the actuallyoccurred amounts when it actually occurred. Non-monetary staff welfare expenses are measured atfair value.

Payment made by the Group of social security contributions for employees such as premiums orcontributions on medical insurance, work injury insurance and maternity insurance, etc. andpayments of housing funds, as well as union running costs and employee education costs providedin accordance with relevant requirements, are calculated according to prescribed bases andpercentages in determining the amount of employee benefits and recognized as relevant liabilities,with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the period or the costs of relevant assets in theaccounting period in which employees provide services.

22.2 The accounting treatment of post-employment benefits

Post-employment benefits are classified in defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans.

22.2 The accounting treatment of post-employment benefits - continued

During the accounting period of rendering service to employees of the Group, amount which shouldbe paid according to defined contribution plans is recognized as liabilities, and recognized in profitor loss or related costs of assets.

For defined benefit plans, the Group calculates defined benefit plan obligations using projected unitcredit method and the service cost resulting from employee service in the current period is recordedin the profit or loss or the cost 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 plan (including interest income ofplanned 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 and net assets of defined benefit plans are recognizedin profit or loss of current period or costs of related assets. Remeasurement of the net defined benefitliability (asset) (including actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets, excluding amountsincluded in net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset), and any change in the effect ofthe asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability(asset)) are recognized in other comprehensive income.

22.3 The accounting treatment of termination benefits

When the Group provides termination benefits to employees, employee benefit liabilities arerecognized for termination benefits, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the periodat the earlier of:

? When the Group cannot unilaterally withdraw the offer of termination benefits because of thetermination plan or a curtailment proposal; and? When the Group recognizes costs or expenses related to restructuring that involves the payment

of termination benefits.

23. Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has present obligation related with contingencies, it isprobable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation causing an outflow of economicbenefits, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

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 the risks, uncertainties and time valueof money surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimatedto settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows wherethe effect of the time value of money is material.

ESTIMATES - continued

23. Provisions - continued

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to berecovered from a third party, a receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain thatreimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable should not exceed the carryingamount of provisions.

24. Revenue

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

? Port service;? Bonded logistics service;? Other business such as property development and investment.

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.

If one of the following criteria is met and it is a performance obligation performed over time, theGroup recognizes the revenue within a certain period of time according to the progress of theperformance:

? The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group'sperformance as the Group performs;? The customer is able to control the goods under construction in the course of the Group'sperformance;? The goods produced by the Group during the performance of the contract are irreplaceable and

the Group has the right to charge for the accumulated part of the contract that has beenperformed so far during the whole contract period. Otherwise, the Group recognizes revenueat a certain point in time when "control" of the goods or services is transferred to the customer.

The Group adopts input 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.

24. Revenue - continued

Contract asset refers to the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that theGroup has transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than thepassage of time. The Group's unconditional (i.e., depending on the passage of time only) right toreceive consideration from the customer is separately presented as receivables. Contract liabilitiesrefers to the Group's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group hasreceived consideration from the customer. Contract assets and contract liabilities under the samecontract are set out on a net basis.

If the contract includes two or more performance obligations, at contract inception, the Groupallocates the transaction price to single performance obligation according to relative proportion ofthe stand-alone selling prices of the goods or services promised by single performance obligation.However, where there is conclusive evidence that the contract discount or variable consideration isonly related to one or more (not all) performance obligations in the contract, the Group shall allocatethe contract discount or variable consideration to relevant one or more performance obligations.The stand-alone selling price is the price at which the Group would sell a promised good or serviceseparately to a customer. If a stand-alone selling price is not directly observable, the Group shallconsider all information that is reasonably available to the Group and maximize the use ofobservable inputs and apply estimates methods consistently in similar circumstances.

If the contract includes significant financing component, the Group determines the transaction pricebased on the amount payable under the assumption that the customer pays that amount payable incash when "control" of the goods or services is obtained by the customer. The difference betweenthe transaction price and the contract consideration shall be amortized within the contract periodusing effective interest rate. If the Group expects, at contract inception, that the period betweenwhen the Group transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays forthat good or service will be one year or less, the Group needs not to consider the significantfinancing component.

24.1 Principal and agent

The Group determines whether it is a principal or an agent at the time of the transaction based onwhether it owns the "control" of the goods or services before the transfer of such goods or servicesto the customer. The Group is a principal if it controls the specified good or service before that goodor service is transferred to a customer, and the revenue shall be recognized based on the totalconsideration received or receivable. Otherwise, the Group is an agent, and the revenue shall berecognized based on the amount of commission or handling fee that is expected to be charged,whichis determined based on the net amount of the total consideration received or receivable afterdeducting the prices payable to other related parties or according to the established commissionamount or proportion.

24.2 Costs to fulfill a contract

If the costs incurred in fulfilling a contract are not within the scope of other standard other than thenew standards for revenue, the Group shall recongnize an asset from the costs incurred to fulfill acontract only if those costs meet all of the following criteria:

? The costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Group can

specifically identify;? The costs generate or enhance resources of the entity that will be used in satisfyingperformance obligations in the future;? The costs are expected to be recovered.

The asset mentioned above shall be amortized on the basis that is consistent with the transfer to thecustomer of the goods or services to which the asset relates and recognizes in profit or loss for theperiod.

24.3 Impairment of contract costs

In determination of impairment losses of assets related to contract costs, firstly impairment lossesof other assets related to the contract recognized based on other relevant accounting standards;secondly, the Group shall recognized an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying amount ofan asset exceeds: (1) the remaining amount of consideration that the Group expects to receive inexchange for the goods or services to which the asset relates; (2) the estimated costs that relate toproviding those goods or services.

The Group shall, after the impairment has been provided, recognize in profit or loss a reversal ofsome or all of an impairment loss previously recognized when the impairment conditions no longerexist or have improved. The increased carrying amount of the asset shall not exceed the carryingamount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognized previously.

25. 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 the conditions attached to the grant and the Group will receive the grant.

If a government grant is in the form of a transfer of a monetary asset, it is measured as the amountreceived or receivable.

25.1 The accounting treatment of government grants related to assets

Government grants, such as special funds for modern logistics project and special funds for energy-saving and emission reduction of transportation, are government grants related to assets as they areall related to the construction and use of assets.

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.

25.2 The accounting treatment of government grants related to income

The Group's government grant, such as financial support funds of business tax converted to VATand reward for energy saving, if used to compensate the related expenses or losses to be incurred insubsequent periods, are determined as government grant relating to income.

A government grant relating to income, if used to compensate the related cost, expenses or lossesto be incurred in subsequent periods, is determined as deferred income and recognized in profit orloss over the periods in which the related costs are recognized; if used to compensate the relatedcost, expenses or losses already incurred, it is recognized immediately in profit or loss for the period.

A government grant relating to the Group's daily activities, is recognized in other income in linewith the nature of economic transaction. A government grant not relating to the Group's dailyactivities, is recognized in non-operating income.

26. Deferred tax assets/ deferred tax liabilities

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

26.1 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.

26.2 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 nil 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.

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 (not a business combination)that affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profits (or deductible losses) at the time oftransaction, 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.

26.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities - continued

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated withinvestments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Groupis able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that thetemporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising fromdeductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are onlyrecognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be taxable profits against which to utilizethe benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse 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 asset is realized or the liability is settled according to 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 equity, in which case they are recognized in other comprehensive income or in equity,and when they arise from business combinations, in which case they adjust the carrying amount ofgoodwill.

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.

26.3 Offset of income tax

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.

When the Group has a legal right to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis, anddeferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxationauthority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settlecurrent tax assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and liabilities simultaneously,in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expectedto be reversed, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset and presented on a net basis.

27. Leases

If one party to the contract conveys the right to control the use of one or more identified assets fora period of time in exchange for consideration, the contract is, or contains, a lease. For determiningwhether the contract has conveyed the right to control the use of the identified assets for a periodof time, the Group assesses whether customers in the contract have the right to obtain almost alleconomic benefits arising from the use of identified assets over the use period, and the right to leadthe use of identified assets over the use period.

27.1 The accounting treatment of the Group as lessee

27.1.1 Recognition and initial measurement

At the commencement date of a lease, the Group as the lessee recognizes right-of-use assets andlease liabilities for leases, but excludes the short-term leases and leases of low-value assets to whichthe Group applies a simplified approach.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost initially. Lease liabilities are initially measured at thepresent value of the lease payments unpaid at the commencement date of a lease. In calculating thepresent value of lease payments, the Group uses the interest rate implicit in the lease as thediscounting rate, or uses the incremental borrowing rate if the interest rate implicit in the lease isnot readily determinable.

27.1.2 Subsequent measurement

After the lease commencement date, the Group as the lessee, adopts the cost model to makesubsequent measurement of the right-of-use assets, and makes depreciations for the right-of-useassets referencing to relevant provisions of depreciation from Accounting Standard for BusinessEnterprises No.4 – Fixed Assets. If the lessor can reasonably determine that the ownership of theleased assets is obtained before the expiration of the lease term, the depreciation shall be madeduring the remaining useful life of the leased assets. If it cannot be reasonably determined that theownership of the leased assets can be obtained before the expiration of the lease term, thedepreciation shall be made during the shorter term between the lease term and the remaining usefullife of the leased assets.

The Group as the lessor shall calculate the interest expenses for lease liabilities of each period withinthe lease term based on the fixed periodic rate and record them to the profit or loss for the period.In accordance with Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.17 – Borrowing costs andother standards, if it is specified that the expenses shall be recorded to the costs of relevant assets,provisions shall prevail. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of lease liabilitiesshall be recorded to profit or loss for the period upon incurring. In accordance with AccountingStandard for Business Enterprises No.1 – Inventories and other standards, if it is specified that thepayments shall be recorded to the costs of relevant assets, provisions shall prevail.

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

Short-term lease refers to leases with a lease term of not exceeding 12 months at the commencementdate. Leases with a purchase option do not belong to the short-term leases.

A lease of low value asset refers to a single lease asset, when new, is of low value. If the lesseesubleases or expects to sublease the leased assets, the original lease does not belong to the lease oflow value asset.

For short-term leases and leases of low-value assets, the lessor can choose not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. For short-term leases, the Group as the lessor shall make thechoice about accounting treatment based on the category of the leased assets. For leases of low-value assets, the Group as the lessor can make the choice about accounting treatment according tothe specific situations of each lease.

27.2 The Group as lessor under operating leases

Lease receipts from operating leases are recognized as rental income on a straight-line basis overthe term of the relevant lease by the Group as lessee, unless other systematic and reasonablemethods can better reflect the consumption pattern under which the economic benefits are resultedby the use of the leased assets. Initial direct costs in connection with the operating lease of the lesseeare capitalized when incurred, and are amortized on the same basis as rental income recognitionover the lease term and recognized in profit or loss by stages.

For fixed assets under the operating lease, the Group as the lessee shall adopt the depreciation policyof similar assets; for other assets under operating lease, the Group adopts a systematic andreasonable approach on the amortization in accordance with applicable accounting standards forbusiness enterprise to the assets. The variable lease payments the Group as the lessee obtains, whichare not recorded to the lease receipts but relevant to operating leases shall be recorded to profit orloss for the period upon incurring.

28. Discontinued operation

Discontinued operation refers to the separately identifiable components that have been disposed ofor classified as held for sale and meet one of the following conditions:

(1) The component represents an independent main business or a major business area;

(2) This component is a part of a related plan that intends to dispose an independent main business

or a separate main operating area;

(3) This component is a subsidiary acquired exclusively for resale.

According to the Administrative Rules on Provision and Use of Enterprise Safety Production Costjointly issued by the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Work Safety on 14February 2012 (filed as Cai Qi [2012] No. 16), safety production cost set aside by the Group isdirectly included in the cost of relevant products or recognized in profit or loss for the period, aswell as the special reserve. When safety production cost set aside is utilized, if the costs incurredcan be categorized as expenditure, the costs incurred should be charged against the special reserve.If the costs set aside are used to build up fixed assets, the costs should be charged to constructionin progress, and reclassified to fixed assets when the safety projects are ready for intended use.Meantime, expenditures in building up fixed assets are directly charged against the special reservewith the accumulated depreciation recognized at the same amount. Depreciation will not be madein the future period on such fixed assets.

30. Critical judgments in applying accounting policies and key assumptions anduncertainties in accounting estimates

In the application of accounting policies as set out in Note (III), the Company is required to makejudgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of items in the financialstatements that cannot be measured accurately, due to the internal uncertainty of the operatingactivities. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are based on historical experiences of theCompany's management as well as other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual resultsmay differ from these estimates.

The Company 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 that arelikely to lead to significant adjustments to the book values 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 tax

The Group calculates and makes provision for deferred income 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 income tax liabilitiesare recognized. 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 profitsdistribution date and the declaration date, in the profit and loss of the current period.

Deferred tax assets are recognized based on the deductible temporary difference and thecorresponding tax rate, to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will beavailable for the deductible temporary difference. If in the future the actual taxable income does notcoincide with the amount currently expected, the deferred tax assets resulting will be recognized orreversed in the period when actually incurred, in profit or loss.

31. Changes in significant accounting policies and accounting estimates

(1) New Standard on Lease

New standard on lease removed the category of the lessor on financing lease and operating lease,required the lessor to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all the leases (excludingshort-term leases and leases of low value that adopt a simplified approach) and recognizeddepreciation and interest expenses respectively. In terms of the lessee, new standard on leasebasically adopted the previous accounting treatments of leases. When implementing new standardon lease, the Group adjusted the opening balance of retained earnings of the same year when newstandard on lease was initially implemented and the amounts of other relevant items of the financialstatements, with information of the comparative period not adjusted. For operating lease prior tothe initial implementation date, the Group as the lessor measures lease liabilities at the present valuediscounted at the incremental borrowing rate of the lessor on the initial implementation date basedon the remaining lease payments and assumes that since the commencement date of the lease term,right-of-use assets are measured at the book value as specified in the new standard on lease (theincremental borrowing rate of the lessor on the initial implementation date is adopted as the discountrate). Details of the Group's accounting policies on the recognition and measurement of lease areset out in the Note (III) 27 "Lease".

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 of the exchangerate movements, management considers the probable heavy loss resulted from foreign exchangerate fluctuation to be fairly low.

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 orequity:

VIII FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT - continued

1. Risk management objectives and policies - continued

1.1 Market risk - continued

1.1.2 Interest rate risk - changes in cash flows

Risk derived from changes in cash flows of financial instruments is mainly related to bank loanswith floating interest rate. (See Notes (V) 24 and Notes (V) 34). This Group takes the measure ofmaintaining the floating interest rate of the bank loans, as a way to reduce the interest rate riskarising from changes in fair value.

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 interestrate can only affect its interest income or expense.? For a derivative financial instrument recognized as hedging instrument, the fluctuations of marketinterest rate affects its fair value and interest rate hedging estimation are effective and efficient.? Market interest rate at the balance sheet date is adopted to calculate fair value changes of derivativefinancial instruments and other financial assets and liabilities under discounted cash flow method.

Given that other variables unchanged on the basis of above assumptions, the pre-tax effect on theprofit or loss for the current period from possible and reasonable changes of interest rate are asfollows:

1.1.3 Other price risk

Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value by the Group at the balance sheetdate. Hence the Group takes risk of changes in the securities market. The Group closely monitorsthe effects of changes in the foreign exchange prices on the Group's equity investment securities.The Group has not taken any measures to reduce prices risk of equity investment securities.

VIII FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT - continued

1. Risk management objectives and policies - continued

1.2 Credit risk

As at 30 June 2019, the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financialloss to the Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties and financialguarantees issued by the Group is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognizedfinancial assets as stated in the consolidated balance sheet. For financial instruments measured atfair value, the carrying amount reflects the exposure to risks but not the maximum exposure torisks; the maximum exposure to risks would vary according to the future changes in fair value.

In order to minimize the credit risk, the Group has delegated a team responsible for determinationof credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up actionis taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of eachindividual trade debt at each balance sheet date to ensure that adequate impairment losses aremade for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the management of the Group considers that theGroup's credit risk is significantly reduced.

The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high creditratings.

The Group adopted necessary policies to make sure that all clients and customers are attributedwith merit credit records.

1.3 Liquidity risk

In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash andcash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group's operations andmitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The management monitors the utilization ofbank loans and ensures compliance with loans covenants.

The following is the maturity analysis for financial assets and financial liabilities held by theGroup which is based on undiscounted remaining contractual obligations:

The fair value of other investments in equity instruments that are measured at fair value throughprofit or loss or other comprehensive income is determined using valuation methods such asdiscounted cash flow method, net assets method, and comparative method of listed company. Atthe time of valuation, the Group needs to estimate future cash flows, credit risk, market volatilityand correlation, select an appropriate discount rate and consider the discount premium adjustment.

4. Information of financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fairvalue

Financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value include notes andaccounts receivable, other receivables, short-term borrowings, notes and accounts payable, otherreceivables, long-term borrowings, bonds payable, long-term payables.

The management considers that the carrying amount of financial assets and liabilities measured atamortized cost is approximately equal to the fair value of financial assets and liabilities.

The fair value of note payable which has active market price should be determined by the activemarket price. The fair value of long-term borrowings, long-term payable and note payable withoutactive market price, should be determined by the net present value of cash flow stated in contractand the discount rate which has the same rank of credit.

XIII OTHER SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

1. Segment reporting

(1) Basis for determining and accounting treatments of reporting segments

The key management team of the Company is regarded as the CODM, who reviews the Group'sinternal reports in order to assess performance, allocate resources and determine the operatingsegments.

The CODM manages the Group's operations by divisions from both business and geographicperspectives.

From business and financial perspectives, management assesses the performance of the Group'sbusiness operations including ports operation, bonded logistics operation, port-relatedmanufacturing operation and other operations.

Ports operation

Ports operation includes container terminal operation, bulk and general cargo terminal operationoperated by the Group and its associates and joint ventures.The Group's reportable segments of the ports operation are as follows:

(a) Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan

? Pearl River Delta? Yangtze River Delta? Bohai Rim? Others

(b) Other locations outside of Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan

Bonded logistics operation

Other operations

Other operations mainly includes property development and investment and construction ofmodular housing operated by the Group's associate, property investment operated by the Group andcorporate function.

Each of the segments under ports operation include the operations of a number of ports in variouslocations within the geographic locations, each of which is considered as a separate operatingsegment by the CODM. For the purpose of segment reporting, these individual operating segmentshave been aggregated into reportable segments on geographic basis in order to present a moresystematic and structured segment information. To give details of each of the operating segments,in the opinion of the directors of the Company, would result in particulars of excessive length.

Bonded logistics operation and other operations include a number of different operations, each ofwhich is considered as a separate but insignificant operating segment by the CODM. For segmentreporting, these individual operating segments have been aggregated according to the natures oftheir operations to give rise to more meaningful presentation.

There are no material sales or other transactions between the segments.

As at 30 June 2019, around 68% of the Group's non-current assets other than financial instrumentsand deferred tax assets are located in Mainland China.
