Risk Warning
I. Risk of Periodical Fluctuations in the Feed Industry due to Abnormal
Weather and Animal Epidemic Diseases during Animal ProductionThe feed industry mainly serves the downstream animal feeding industry. Theabnormal changes in natural elements such as precipitation and typhoon maylead to fluctuations of the inventory of livestock or aquatic products and eventhe large-scale outbreak of animal diseases. This thus affects the demand forfeed and likely causes the risk of periodic and regional fluctuations of the latter.With the environmental changes and the expansion of animal productionindustry, animal epidemic diseases may also occur occasionally. For instance, theAfrican swine fever virus broke out across China in August 2018.PRRSV-mediated pig disease, shrimp-relevant EMS epidemic disease andpoultry-relevant “H7N9” disease all occurred recently. The outbreak of animaldiseases will directly inhibit the scale of animal production and reduce thedemand for feed in the short term; major animal epidemic diseases may alsodampen the demand from end-consumers, leading to a downturn of the animalproduction industry, and further affect the feed demand, giving rise to adverseeffects on the production and operation of feed enterprises.Risk management methods: (1) The Company is currently fully deployingfactories and developing local markets in major areas in Southern China,Central China, Eastern China and Northern China and overseas markets inSoutheast Asia, etc. and the expansion of regional distribution can effectivelycope with the risk of weather anomalies and natural disasters in local areas. (2)The Company's feed varieties cover pig feed, chicken feed, duck feed and otherlivestock feed and fish feed, shrimp feed and other aquatic feed. With a varietyof products and a well-balanced structure, it can effectively deal with the risk ofsingle breed species and has strong comprehensive anti-risk capability.II. Risk of Drastic Price Fluctuations of Major Raw MaterialsThe feed ingredients mainly consist of various kinds of staple agriculturalproducts such as corn and soybeans(soybean meal). In recent years, the domesticand international markets of agricultural product have been closely linked.Changes in the planting area and harvest of crops in major grain-producingcountries, purchasing and storage and subsidy policies, import and exportpolicies, fluctuations in logistics capacity and costs of shipping, exchange ratesand others may cause great fluctuations in prices of agricultural products, which,in turn, has a certain impact on the cost of feed and farming. With thestrengthening of the internationalization in trade of agricultural products, thefactors for changes in the prices of agricultural products have become more

complex and the price fluctuations have therefore increased. If raw materialprices fluctuate and the Company fails to understand the changes in the trade offeed raw materials in a timely manner and promptly implement strategicmanagement and risk control of procurement, the Company may face the risk ofrising integrated procurement costs.Risk management methods: (1) The Company divides raw material intodifferent categories and implements a combination of centralized procurementof staple category and local procurement of regional varieties, which not onlyguarantees the advantages of large-scale raw material procurement, but alsoobtains localization advantages from rapid response in respect of regionalprocurement; (2) The Company continuously invests in the construction of theraw material procurement research system. The team of the professional rawmaterial information research department is relatively mature. It conductsstrategic procurement through the real-time tracking, research and judgment ofthe domestic and foreign bulk raw material market trends, and implementsposition risk management for bulk raw materials through futures hedging, rawmaterials trade and other tools to effectively control procurement risks; (3) TheCompany has accumulated rich experience in research and development ofanimal nutrition and feed formula technologies, and has research anddevelopment team composed of over 1,000 members. Large amounts of fundsare spent on research and development each year, focusing on animal nutritionrequirements, feed formula technology, animal farming and geneticimprovement, comprehensive investigation on healthy animal farming strategies,and other research areas. The Company has a profound understanding ofanimal nutritional requirements and higher level of expertise in comprehensiveutilization of raw materials. Therefore, in case of raw material price fluctuations,it can quickly adjust the formula to control the reasonable feed nutrient leveland formula costs.III. Risk of Structural, Regional and Scale Adjustment to Farming Industry
under Environmental Protection Regulations and PoliciesIn recent years, the State has introduced a series of environmental protectionlaws and regulations including the new Environmental Protection Law (环保法),the Regulations on Prevention and Control of Pollution from Large-ScaleProduction of Livestock and Poultry (畜禽规模养殖污染防治条例), Action Planfor Prevention and Treatment of Water Pollution (水污染防治行动计划), andthe Guiding Opinions on Adjusting the Layout of Pig Production in theSouthern Water Network Region (关于促进南方水网地区生猪养殖布局调整),the "13th Five-Year Plan" on Ecological and Environmental Protection (“十三五”生态环境保护规划), which stipulate the pollution prevention and control ofanimal production industry, increase the pollution control of animal production

industry, and especially limit the production scale in the regions of key watersources and its surrounding areas. According to the regulations and policies ofthe central government, banned areas and restricted areas have been set upthroughout the country, and pig farms in the banned areas in the southern waternetwork area are gradually relocating. The implementation of environmentalprotection policies will speed up the withdrawal of private pig farming farmers,reduce the backward production capacity failing to meet environmentalprotection standards and with a small scale, and enable large -scale farmers tocontinuously expand their production capacity and improve the farming scaleand structure; In addition, the establishment of banned areas and restrictedareas will enforce adjustments to the pig production capacity in all places acrossthe country. The adjustments to the scale composition of pig production and therelocation of pig production area will certainly have a profound impact on theexisting capacity layout, market share, pricing power and business model of thefeed industry. The impact of enforced environmental protection policies on thepig growing and feed industries puts existing competitive companies in themarket at risk of reshuffle.Risk management methods: (1) The Company continually improves itscapability to serve farmers. In addition to feed products, the Company is alsoengaged in the industrial chain of animal healthcare products, vaccines andfinance and has a strong stickiness to large-scale farmers; (2) The feed varietiesof the Company cover livestock, poultry, and aquatic animals and the productline is abundant. The production lines for pig feed, chicken feed, duck feed andpelleted fish feed can be shared. The Company can rapidly shift the productionlayout and make adjustments to adapt to the changes in the industry byadjusting the production capacity in all places. (3) The Company adoptsmultiple models to speed up the production layout in areas with rich resourcesand strong environmental carrying capacity, and to seize the market share ofnew animal farming areas.IV. Risk of Exchange Rate FluctuationsThe global procurement of raw materials has become the norm. The scale ofoverseas investment and overseas operations of the Company is also rapidlyexpanding. The scale of cross-border fund settlement and the stock of overseasassets have grown substantially, involving the currency types of various relatedcountries. Currency exchange rate fluctuations are subject to different influencefactors, and exchange rate fluctuations in any currency may have a certainimpact on the settlement cost and asset stock value of the region.Risk management methods: (1) Based on the business scale, business model, andsettlement characteristics in different regions and countries, the Companystrictly controls the exchange rate risks, carefully selects settlement currencies,

and strives to achieve relatively balanced regional fund inflow and outflowthrough structural arrangements of financing sources and financing types; (2)The expansion of two-way fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate has becomethe new normal. The Company further enhances its awareness of foreignexchange risk management, and arranges settlement models based on theprocurement and sales strategies and cycle characteristics of import and exportoperations. And forward foreign exchange settlement and sale, swaps, foreignexchange options and other financial instruments are flexibly used to lock theexchange rate risks, control procurement and sales costs, and control thepossible risk brought about by exchange rate fluctuations.

Section III. Business Overview
I. Principal Operations of the Company During The Reporting Period
Whether the Company needs to comply with the disclosure requirements of specific industriesNo
(I) Principal businesses and products and major business models of the Company during the reporting period1. Principal businesses and productsCentering on the products and services needed in the animal production process, the Company’s businesses coverthe research and development, design, production, sales, service and all other types of activities of variousproducts. Its main products include feeds for aquatic animals, feeds for livestock and poultry, high-quality aquaticanimal seedlings, animal healthcare products, biological products, and pig farming.The production and sale of feeds for aquatic animals, livestock and poultry are the Company's most importantbusinesses, and the Company has also accumulated a wide range of customer resources through the feed business;the Company can better help customers to achieve animal farming success by providing customers with qualityanimal seedlings that are scarce in the market; Cost-effective animal health products including vaccines,veterinary drugs and biological products, supplemented by efficient overall animal farming solutions, enablecustomers to achieve healthy animal farming while implementing better control over the cost and gainingcompetitive advantage in respect of end products.Specifically, the Company's products mainly include feeds for chickens, ducks, pigs, fish and shrimps, farmedspecies such as pig, shrimp and fish fry, as well as biological products, veterinary drugs, vaccines and otherproducts needed in the production of livestock, poultry and aquatic animals.2. Main Business ModelThe Company started up from the feed business. Its rich customer resource helps to have deep understanding ofand exploration of customer needs. This results in a continually enlarged profile of products and service to thecustomer, which gradually extends from feed to high tech areas with increased added-value such as animalseedlings, veterinary drugs and vaccine products. The scale of production and sales of high value-added productshas gradually expanded, and the proportion thereof in income structure has also been increasing year by year. Inrecent years, through the extension of the industrial chain, the Company has further attempted to enter into suchareas as pig farming and food processing. The business model has been developed and extended in an orderlymanner with various industrial segments interactively supporting and developing each other.In particular, for the feed business which has the largest scale, the business management is mainly carried out withthe business model of centralized procurement of raw materials, distributed production layout, sales of productsaccompanied with technical services. The adoption of a centralized procurement model composed of "group +regional center", combined with hedging and other methods, for agricultural products and other bulk raw materialscan achieve better procurement cost advantages and risk control; with the goal of being the closest to the market,convenient in logistics and rich in resources, the Company conduct distributed layout production and its factoriescurrently are mainly distributed in nearly 100 cities in China and Southeast Asia; Distribution + direct sales is theCompany's main sales model. Focusing on localized marketing, the Company has fully established distributionchannels to efficiently solve farmers' capital and transportation needs. The Company’s own professionaltechnology and service teams consisting of a large number of members directly visit farmers to provide farmingtechnical services and have achieved functional complementation and collaboration with sales organization andmanagement teams in terms of sales and service as well as channel and farmers; high-quality animal seedlings,biological Products, veterinary drugs and vaccines have become indispensable products and tools for theCompany to provide services and constitute a package of overall sales programs and solutions.
The business models for seedlings and animal healthcare products reflect the distinctive features of research anddevelopment and technology as the guide, differentiated products as the carrier, and service support as the mainpromotion strategy. Seedlings and animal healthcare products involve a long period of investment in research anddevelopment. Technology accumulation needs better predictability and market insight, and strong originality ofproducts. To provide better service support, it is necessary to invest in the long term and to build service teamswith rich technology, knowledge, and experience. Therefore, a multi-tiered research and development system hasbeen chosen for the business management model, supplemented by a production base that has a relatively highstarting point for investment and a marketing strategy with a stronger aggressive power.The Company's pig farming business started at an early stage, and adopts the business model of "company +
farmer", which means that the Company provides farmers with necessary products such as seedlings, feed,
vaccines, etc., the farmers complete the farming process after agreeing on the main technical requirements for thefarming process and then the Company repurchases the finished products for sales. The Company also has someself-supporting production bases and will further expand the scale of production.The Company has set up professional functional departments including technology research institute, procurementcenter, financial center, factory operation center, marketing center, process and information management center,and human resource center at its headquarters. Each professional center aims at acquiring technical andmanagement leadership in its field and provides technical and management standards as well as integrated andprofessional management and service support for large regions/business divisions and various branches andsubsidiaries. The Group has set up multiple regional / business divisions according to regions or businesscategories. The regional / business divisions mainly organize and manage the production, sales and service ofbranches and subsidiaries.
(II) Development stage and periodic characteristics of and position of the Company in the industries where theCompany operated during the reporting period1. Industry development stageChina's feed industry development started in the 1980s. After over forty years of development, China’s totalamount of feed ranks the first in the world. In recent years, the national feed production was steady in slowergrowth and has entered a stage of stable development and industrial restructuring and upgrading. Due to theaggravated competition among enterprises, the number of feed enterprises decreased from more than 10,000 in2010 to over 6,000 in 2015. It is expected that the consolidation would continue and the number would be furtherreduced. According to the development goals under the "13th Five Year Plan" for National Feed Industry(2016-2020)(全国饲料工业“十三五”发展规划（2016-2020)） as promulgated by the Ministry of Agriculture, thenational feed production will reach 220 million tonnes by 2020, representing an increase of 10% as compared to200 million tonnes in 2015. The industry will gradually shift to large -scale and intensified development, but feedenterprises will be subject to further differentiation. Superior enterprises will make good use of the opportunity ofindustry consolidation and their scale advantages to extend the industrial chain or develop diversified businessesthrough mergers and acquisitions as well as construction of new production capacities; confronted with thedevelopment bottlenecks in terms of capital pressure, talent pressure, technical pressure and service capacity,SMEs will gradually be merged by dominant enterprises or eliminated from the market.The high-quality animal seedlings have a huge market space. However, most of the high-quality seedlings forfarmed species, especially aquatic seedlings, are currently under-supplied. There are fewer new strains withproprietary intellectual property right, and the production capacity is small. It is far from meeting the needs of theanimal farming industry to upgrade and progress. In a longer period, there will be pressure in respect of achievingresearch and development progress and improving production supply capacity.The market demand of animal healthcare industry has grown rapidly. In particular, with the upgrading ofconsumption, the upgrading of farming species has significantly increased the demand for health, safety, andgreen farming, and the concept of prevention over treatment has been increasingly accepted by a wide range offarmers. The help of reasonable animal healthcare product investment for farming is mainly reflected in the directeffects of a reduced disease risk, increased health and safety added value of products, controllable farming costs,
and improved farming efficiency, as well as a number of extended effects including reduced labor intensity andimproved industrial chain extension capability. In the future, the market capacity of the animal healthcare industrywill see a greater room for continuous development on the basis of the current situation, and dominant enterpriseswill usher in major market development opportunities.The pig farming business is rapidly moving towards large -scale, intensive, and factory-oriented development. Inaddition to changes in the scale and capabilities of the farming entities, the farming areas also show obviousfeatures of moving northwards and westwards. Small-scale farmers and family-based private farmers quicklywithdraw from the market. With the rapid advancement of farming technology, the automation of farming processhas been significantly improved and the techniques of animal waste treatment for environmental protection havealso been notably enhanced. The farming industry will continue to maintain the characteristics of large -scale andindustrialization development in the medium term.2. Periodic characteristics of the industryThe cycle of feed, animal healthcare products, seedlings and other industries is related to that of the animalproduction industry. The cycle of the animal production industry is mainly determined by the supply end (feedingcapacity).China is a country with a large population. Residents have a huge food consumption demand which remainsrelatively rigid and stable for a certain period of time. Therefore, the supply end of the animal production industry(animal farming capacity) determines the price of the farmed species and thus determines the cycle of the animalproduction industry. In general, the feed industry will lag behind the cycle of the animal production industry.When the animal farming capacity is smaller than the demand, the terminal price of the farmed species willincrease, the profit of the farming will be considerable, and the farming cycle will have a high degree of prosperity.However, due to the reduction of the farming capacity, feed demand will decline. When the farming amount isgreater than the consumer demand, the terminal price of the farmed species will fall, resulting in farming loss andsluggish farming cycle. However, due to the larger amount of animal farming, there is a greater demand for feed.As the prosperity of the animal farming industry directly affects the farmers' choice of high-quality or low-gradefeed products, the enthusiasm of feed feeding, the sensitivity of feed product prices, and the effective transfer offeed raw material price fluctuations, etc., the actual cycle of the feed industry is more complicated.The high-quality aquatic seedlings and animal healthcare industry are in a period of rapid growth, with no obviousperiodic characteristics, and they are in a period of rapid development of the industry as a whole.3. Position of the Company in the industries in which the Company operatesThe Company is a large integrated enterprise.Firstly, China's feed industry is still relatively decentralized. The Company ranks among the top five in thenational feed industry. It sold 10.7 million tonnes of feed in 2018, representing approximately 4.7% of thecountry's total feed production.

III. Analysis of Core Competitiveness
Whether the Company needs to comply with the disclosure requirements of specific industriesNo
As the Company's products and services are centered on the needs of the animal production industry, theCompany's core competitiveness is also comprehensively represented by a diversified and complete productconfiguration, outstanding single product advantage, comprehensive farming technology service capabilities,industrial layout and the ability to organize the development of the industrial chain-related links, as well as thedelicacy management capability.1. Diverse and complete product configurationCentering on the animal farming chain, after many years of technological investment, transformation of researchand development achievements, product accumulation, production layout, etc., the Company's productconfiguration has reached a relatively rich and complete state and covered the whole process of animal farmingincluding feed, functional feed, seedlings, drugs, vaccines, biological products, etc. and it is still in development.Product configuration capability requires strong insights into customer demands, research and developmentorganization capability, results conversion capability, investment in construction of production bases, processingorganization capability, marketing promotion capability, and technical service capability.The Company has rich technical research reserves and a research and development team composed of more than1,000 members. It annually invests more than RMB 200 million in research and development and research anddevelopment personnel includes multi-disciplinary talents in the fields of animal nutrition, veterinary medicine,animal farming and genetic improvement, animal farming strategy optimization, bioengineering, biochemistry andmachinery. The fast transformation of research and development results and clear and rapid implementation ofinvestment supporting strategies contribute to the Company's strong product configuration capability.For example, for feed formula technology, the Company, through more than 10 years of accumulation incontinuous research and development, has established a huge database of animal nutrition requirements and
reserved a variety of raw material formula technologies. More than 1,000 sets of comparative experimental resultsare added to the database of core nutritional needs of animals and raw materials utilization to convert technologiesinto productivity. Therefore, the Company has a strong capacity in terms of organization and continuousoptimization of product formulas and adaptation to changes. To quickly adjust the formula when the raw materialprices fluctuate can ensure acquisition of cost competitive advantages.The Company now has a marketing team consisting of more than 5,000 members who visit farms or farming sitesto know the animal farming situation. Therefore, the Company has detailed data sources for terminal consumptionhabits, animal growth performance after feed utilization, animal farming strategy and animal farming needs, andcan accurately grasp the demands of farmers and precisely propose technical requirements on product design tosupport full concentration of the Company's technical resources on customer's core needs.2. Clear and excellent product power is the Company's most important competitive advantageFor all series of products, the Company is dedicated to creating product power that is significantly ahead of itscompetitors and has invested heavily in the explicit expression of product power.Despite of a high price, high-end products have the obvious advantage of ultimate pursuit of animal survival rate,growth effects, and growth efficiency and have a prominent brand effect. On the basis of ensuring leadingproduction efficiency, middle-end products are close to the competitors' product pricing and are pursuingoutstanding cost performance. Therefore, in light of the industry’s overall good farming benefits, the Company’scustomers, with the support of integrated products, can obtain significantly higher returns than those of the sametype of farmers; in the event that the industry’s farming benefits decline and even the entire industry suffers losses,the Company’s customers can suffer from less or even no loss.The manifestation of product power requires the support of various internal professional capabilities of theCompany: the research and development capabilities of animal nutrition and raw material utilization, productformula technology capability, raw material value procurement capability, efficient internal operation capabilityare all indispensable. For example, in respect of support of value purchase capacity, the Company’s purchase teamhas outstanding professional capabilities. The team is young and specialized, and it performs division of laboraccording to subdivided raw material categories. The wide industry perspective and a large amount of informationacquisition and analysis ensure tracking, research, and judgment of the market trends of bulk raw materials athome and abroad in a real time way and utilization of futures instruments for hedging of bulk raw materials toeffectively control the purchase price risk and position risk. The prominent purchase capability can identifynumerous raw material purchase opportunities, making cost advantages for feed products and trade of rawmaterials possible. The Company is the first company to successfully achieve centralized purchase in the industry.It has obvious advantages in respect of large-scale purchases. Besides, it is sophisticated in the combinedapplication of purchase tools including spot goods, futures and options, as well as flexible application methods.Forward value purchase and risk position management also help the Company to gain purchasing cost advantages.Another example is the Company's ability to support efficient operations. By promoting the application of SAP,EPS and other management software, the Company has a strong information-based system, and internaloperations are gradually becoming more streamlined, standardized, and more data-based. The role of data-basedoperation is to find out the efficient and energy-saving operation method by comparing the big data of branches;the role of process-based operation and standardization is to greatly improve the internal reproducibility. Thehighly efficient operation capability is an important support for the effective organization of professionalproduction of various products.3. Comprehensive animal farming technical services is an important initiative for the Company to coordinateproduct chain and continuously acquire new customers and improve customer's stickinessIn 2006, the Company took the lead in the industry to provide comprehensive technical services to farmers, andpositioned the Company as a service-oriented enterprise and an enterprise that provides animal farming solutionsto farmers. The Company provides farmers with full-process product and technical service support including "fry -stocking mode - environmental control – animal epidemic prevention - feed - market information" to ensure thatfarmers can use the most advanced farming technology to ensure farmers’ growing success and profitability. TheCompany has a service team composed of more than 5,000 talents with the most experience and most passion in
the industry; it has also accumulated a variety of advanced animal farming models based on local characteristics;its hundreds of highly efficient service stations in farming concentrated areas throughout the country cansimultaneously provide technical services for tens of thousands of farmers. The Company's relatively completeservice system in the industry can give full play to its product force strengths and provides a full range oftechnical services for farming, which can effectively amplify the benefits for customers, thereby increasing thestickiness of customers.The comprehensive animal farming technical services have become an important brand label of the Company andan important means for the Company to obtain customers and increase the stickiness of customers.4. The Company's existing industrial layout advantage supports the Company to quickly organize thecomprehensive development of multiple links in the industrial chain, reserve of new businesses in order, and theincreasingly prominent industrial comprehensive advantages.The Company's feed products include a full range of feed products such as livestock and poultry feed and aquaticfeed. The product line is complete and the product mix features endow the company with a strong anti-riskcapability. Different kinds of feed products have different technical contents, different gross profit margins, anddifferent market characteristics and operational risks. The Company's product mix makes it possible for theCompany to obtain higher gross profit margins than the industry's general level, and to better control the marketoperational risks caused by animal epidemic diseases and imbalance of supply and demand and ensures theCompany's stable revenue from sales of feed products and maintain a rapid growth much higher than that of theindustry.Over the years, the Company has orderly developed high-quality aquatic animal seedlings, aquatic animalhealthcare products, livestock and poultry vaccines, veterinary drugs, animal healthcare products for livestock andpoultry, pig farming and other businesses and the core technologies in industrial chain have gradually gainedadvantages in terms of technology, industrial layout and industrial collaboration, thus fostering more new businessgrowth points and profit growth points for the Company and laying a sound foundation for the Company to furtheramplify the multiplier effects of the industrial chain and create comparative competitive advantages.5. Continuously building excellent operation management team and fine management capabilityThe Company has a hard-working, dedicated, professional and superb management team with a consistentphilosophy. Most of the members of the team are graduated from agricultural institutions of higher learning andhave a strong professional background. The management has a profound and comprehensive understanding of thefeed industry and has accumulated rich practical experience and formed magnificent and unified visions and goals,strong industry insight, leadership and executive force, enabling them to adapt to the rapid changes in the feedindustry and the Company's ever-increasing operational management requirements in terms of academicbackground, knowledge structure, industry experience and age.In recent years, the industry is in an era of dramatic changes with tremendous changes in industry development,scale of farmers and needs of customers. Emerging industries including rural finance and ″Internet+″ modelhave also constantly impacted the industry. To promote the transformation and innovation of the industry andcreate corporate mechanism and culture, i.e. the collective learning capacity that can quickly respond to changesenabling the Company to continuously create value for customers, is the foundation for the Company to gainsustainable competitive advantages.From producing aquafeed premixture to manufacturing compound feeds for various aquatic species includingfreshwater fish, marine fish, and shrimps, from having leading advantages in aquatic feeds at the beginning togradually having apparent advantages extended to feed for livestock and poultry, from simple feed productionoperation to provision of comprehensive services including seedlings, animal healthcare and animal farmingtechnical services for farmers, and from business operation only in Southern China to expansion to Central China,Eastern China, Northern China, Southeast Asia and South America, the Company has experienced the process ofdevelopment from scratch to become stronger and larger and to rank the forefront of the industry, relying on thecollective learning ability of the Company’s management and all employees. Affected by this culture and benefitsfrom this capacity, the Company keeps learning and growing.
Section IV. Discussion and Analysis of Operations
I. Overview
(I) Industry situation2018 was a tough year for the feed industry. In the first half year, in a backdrop of industrial downturn, some bigenterprises were challenged by the difficulties of weak growth and even declined sales and profits, in addition toSMEs suffering from operating difficulties; coupled with a tightened domestic monetary policy and financialdeleveraging, an overwhelming number of enterprises faced the great pressure and risks from the shortage andrupture of fund and operating cash chain. In the second half year, the outbreak of the African Swine Fever (ASF)added fuel to flames, giving a big blow to the pig farming and feed industries; in addition, US-China trade frictionresulted in multiple times of soar and slump in protein raw materials in China throughout the year, causing a surgein industrial risks. The feed industry stepped into a period of difficult survival.(II) Different breeds and feed categories in the industry showed different trends and performances.In the pig market, the farming cyclic downturn and the outbreak of the plague resulted in low pig prices and bigdecrease in livestock inventory. During the reporting period, pig farming and feed companies went from bad toworse and were still struggling at the end of the period. After the high-level sways in 2016 and the overall fallback in 2017, pig price kept going down all the way until below RMB10/kg in the middle of May 2018 when itgradually stabilized with a slight increase. From August 2018, the exogenous ASF started to attack China’s pigfarming market and spread quickly from the northern area to the whole country, sweeping major pig farmingprovinces and regions in China. The sustained effects of the plague coupled with the policy of pig transportationrestrictions resulted in pervasive unsalable pigs and passive livestock inventory. Pig prices differentiated inproduction and sale areas, prices in many regions decreased further and kept going down with new lowest records,and farmers withdrew faster due to serious losses. Product sales of feed companies suffered from substantialdecrease with the decrease of the livestock inventory. At the same time, they were challenged by farmers’withdrawal from farming due to big losses or the outbreak of the plague, frequent bad debts in feed sales,withdrawal of loans by financial institutions, requirement of upper-stream raw material companies for cash salesand industrial fund shortage.In the poultry market, poultry feed showed a downturn at first followed by an upturn subsequently in the reportingperiod. Affected by the bird flu in the first half year of 2017 and the environmental demolition in the second halfyear, in the first half year of 2018, China’s poultry inventory remained at a low level, poultry feed demand andsales declined, and coupled with the tight monetary policy and big fluctuations in raw material prices, the wholeindustry witnessed difficulties. Due to the short market supply of eggs and meat with substantial profits in poultryfarming, there was a marked increase in poultry inventory in the second half year; poultry feed demand and salesrecovered slightly, but small companies lacking product competitiveness struggled to tide over the difficulties.In the aquatic product market, product prices were relatively higher at first followed by decreases all way down.The low prices throughout the year formed a stark contrast to the high prices in 2017; if viewed in detailedclassification of aquatic species, special aquaculture performed better than bulk aquatic products. The positivetrend of high prices in 2017 continued at the beginning of 2018. From January to April, the prices remained at arelatively higher level and farmers showed increasing enthusiasm for aquatic farming and substantially increasedseeds and feed. However, in late April, bulk aquatic product (conventional freshwater cultured species such asgrass carp, crucian and tilapia) prices slumped. Rapid shrink of profits and even losses from bulk aquatic productculture in many regions, and low prices and losses from culture continued until the end of the year without anyrecovery. Farmers’ enthusiasm decreased and demand for general aquatic feed declined considerably. Specialaquaculture product (which refers to the species with higher prices and with the large-scale culture started inrecent years, such as bass, snakehead, Chinese perch and crayfish) prices remained stable in the first three quartersdriven by the upgrading consumption of domestic people. The profits were quite impressive and thecorresponding feed demand was robust. Affected by the sustained low prices of bulk aquatic products and pigs,some special aquaculture products saw a slump from the fourth quarter until the lowest point around the Spring
Festival in February 2019. It was not until March 2019 that the prices started to recover. During the reportingperiod, aquatic feed industry fell quickly to depression from the boom in 2017, facing great pressure.(III) Impact of ASF on the industry and the Company’s business strategiesThe outbreak of the “African Swine Fever” (ASF) in 2018 will inevitably bring profound impact to domestic pigfarming and feed industry and even the entire farming, feed, animal health and slaughtering industries. Before theproduction and introduction of effective vaccines against ASF, the plague may haunt for a long time and we allneed to learn how co-exist with ASF”.ASF poses a direct and huge threat to pig farming and it is yet difficult to conclude how big the impact will be. Inaddition, the possibility of overturning and rebuilding the industry cannot be ruled out as at now. ASF has changedthe core logic of pig farming from the previous orientation by cost-effectiveness to the focus on epidemic andbiological prevention and control. No effective prevention and control model has been developed in the currentstage. In the hardest hit regions, individual farmers, large pig farms and super large pig farming companies areimpacted to the same extent. Prevention and control seems more difficult in super large pig farms and focus onepidemic prevention has become the core. Upon the change in the core logic of pig farming, significant changeswill occur to other elements including investment schemes for pig farm building, production and operation models,profit models and farmers’ structure, fattening models and farming areas.The impact of ASF on feed industry is similarly huge and far-reaching. The big decrease in pig livestock inventorywill be a destructive blow to small and medium feed companies mainly engaged in pig feed business and farmers’demand for feed companies will change more thoroughly and rapidly: 1. High quality feed: Feed prices are notimportant any more. Instead, the safety and ability to enhance pig immunity of feed are more important. Thus, bigadjustment is expected in the R&D orientation of feed technology, with safety, health, immunization andresistance to diseases to become more straightforward demands; 2. Service: Feed companies should be able tohelp customers effectively enhance the capabilities of prevention and control. They should be able to providecustomers with effective guidance and support in farming model, pig farm design, epidemic prevention andcontrol and farming management; 3. Fund: Fund will be an inevitable challenge in the fight against ASF. Facingsuch high demands from farmers, most existing small and medium feed companies will surely withdraw frommarket competition.We believe that the industrial impact of ASF is not fully clear yet. Lots of situations keep changing and the presentjudgment may change accordingly. In the stage of rapid changes in industrial impact factors, the Company muststick to its own development logic in the first place, maintain corporate strategic willpower and grasp coreelements in its development; meanwhile, it should not miss any opportunity to expand rapidly on the basis ofmature conditions.The Company’s development plan for pig farming was summarized as follows: 1. In 2018, the Company had700,000 slaughter pigs, including about 200,000 self-supporting pigs and piglets and about 500,000 pigs (All werepurchased from outside) raised in the “Company + Farmers” model. After the outbreak of ASF, all the Company’semployees maximized efforts and stayed alerted to handle it with their optimum anti-epidemic plans and strictestanti-epidemic requirements. During the reporting period, the Company’s slaughter pigs were not impacted andslaughter scale was consistent with the budget. 2. The Company rebuilt the sow farms under construction to meetnew anti-epidemic requirements. In 2018, the Company started to build a number of sow farms. As ASF broke outbefore project operation, based on its own understanding of anti-epidemic and the data analysis of epidemic casesand successful anti-epidemic cases nationwide, the Company substantially modified the original design scheme toachieve the highest standard of anti-epidemic requirements. 3. The Company accelerated the completion ofprocedures for reserved land construction to get ready for the expansion of pig farm construction scale andaccelerated progress of investment and construction. Currently, the Company has about 20,000 mu of reservedland for pig farming in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Guizhou and Shandong, which may satisfy thecapacity layout building for more than 200,000 sows (about 5 million pigs). At present, the Company suffers fewlosses from ASF due to the small capacity of its pig farms. Therefore, it does not have a heavy asset burden andhas strong capabilities to expand capacity rapidly after the stabilization of the plague. Since the outbreak of ASF,the Company has suspended the launch of new pig farm construction. Meanwhile, it has sped up the completion ofearly-stage approval procedures for land construction and the reservation for pig farm construction and operatingpersonnel, and continued to refine anti-epidemic plans for pig farms in an effort to ensure the adequate preparation
of various resources needed for construction. Once ASF stabilizes, the Company will expedite pig farmconstruction to achieve the established strategic goal.ASF is both a huge challenge and a significant opportunity to the Company’s feed business. 1. Consumptiondemands are expected to shift from pig to poultry and aquaculture, which will benefit the Company’s poultry andaquatic feed businesses. It is expected that ASF will result in big decrease in pig livestock inventory andsubstantial increase in pig price and drive consumption towards poultry and aquaculture. The Company isexpected to seize more market shares and gain high profits by virtue of its competitive advantages in poultry andaquatic feed over the years. But at the same time, the Company has to face competitors shifting from pig feed topoultry and aquatic feed. Thus, the Company must keep strengthening its competitive advantages in poultry andaquatic feed. 2. With the outbreak of ASF, farmers’ demands for feed will undergo fundamental changes,providing an opportunity for companies with product competitiveness and service capabilities to fully demonstratethemselves. As a late-mover competitor of pig feed, the Company has been taking product R&D and serviceenhancement as the competitive core, persists in spending on product R&D and continues to develop serviceabilities targeting farmers. As a result, it is equipped with strong product development capabilities and servicecapabilities, and the huge changes in pig feed industry will be a precious opportunity to the Company. 3. Theoutbreak of ASF will inevitably accelerate the integration in feed industry, resulting in faster enhancement ofindustrial concentration. Big market space will be left as most small and medium feed companies are forced toleave the industry, and the Company will have an opportunity to overtake others at the turning in pig feed market.(IV) Production and operation of the CompanyIn 2018, the Company achieved stable and sustainable growth. The business scale of animal feed, aquatic breeding,animal health products, animal husbandry and trade grew on all fronts. For 2018, the operating revenue amountedto RMB 42,157 million, up by 29.49% year-on-year, and the net income attributable to the shareholders of theCompany reached RMB 1,437 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 19.06%.1. Feed sales volume exceeded 10 million tons, marking a new milestoneDuring the reporting period, the Company’s sales volume of feed reached 10.7 million tons, up by 26%year-on-year; sale revenue from feed reached RMB 34,965 million, up by 31.77% year-on-year. The sales volumeof aquatic feed reached 3.11 million tons, up by 23% year-on-year. Marked optimization was seen in the structureof aquatic feed products. The sales volume of aquatic feed for the species including weever, snakehead, yellowcatfish and golden pompano increased by nearly 40% year-on-year, with high growth maintained for years. Thesales volume of feed for crawfish, the extremely popular products, rose by more than 100%. Crawfish is one ofthe fastest growing aquatic species in the market in recent years. The Company has spent on breeding, nutritiondemands, culture technology and culture model with big potential for growth in the future. The sales volume ofpig feed reached 2.32 million tons, up by 53% year-on-year, which was much higher than the industrial averagelevel. With the establishment and refinement of the pig feed quality system, the R&D of new market wasimplemented and tailored to market demands. As a result, the pig feed product competence was further enhanced.Markets in core regions such as Guangdong and Hubei grew by over 30%. The sales volume in newly developedregions rose rapidly, and the word of mouth of new brands continued to increase, gaining recognition of farmers.The sales volume of poultry feed reached 5.27 million tons, up by 19% year-on-year. During the reporting period,while the sound growth of conventional advantaged products such as feed for egg-laying poultry and meat duckswas maintained, meat chicken feed grew by nearly 40% and goose feed advanced by leaps and bounds, becomingnew growth points for the Company’s poultry feed. The Company developed a model of pursuing perfection, scaleand high efficiency for its poultry feed products in the southern region, which resulted in high market shares andsubstantial increase in profitability in some areas.The gross profit margin of the Company’s feed business was 11.04%, down by 0.52 percentage point year-on-year.It was mainly due to the depression of pig industry and compressed profits from pig feed; at the same time,farmers reduced the use of front-end feed with higher gross margins, resulting in the year-on-year decrease in thegross margin of the Company’s pig feed. During the reporting period, while the Company’s sales volume of pigfeed increased by 53% year-on-year, the decreased gross margin of pig feed had a great impact on the overallgross margin of the feed business. In addition, in terms of bulk aquatic products, the gross margin of generalaquatic feed declined slightly on a year-on-year basis because farmers lowered standards for the purchase and useof feed due to low fish prices. During the reporting period, the Company’s gross margin of special aquatic feed
remained unchanged year-on-year, and that of poultry feed slightly rose due to the market recovery in the secondhalf year and the Company’s large-scale and highly efficient operation.2. The animal health business generated operating revenue of RMB 473 million, up by 19.82% year-on-year witha gross profit margin of 47.32%.The Company’s animal health products include microecologics, vaccines and veterinary drugs for aquatic animals,livestock and poultry with a focus on aquatic health. Over years of development, the Company’s aquatic healthbusiness has been equipped with a strong service system, favorable internal distribution channels, solid brandfoundation and prominent advantages in the cost performance of core products. Driven by consumption upgradingand the increase in the size of high-end aquaculture market, the aquatic health market space will maintain stablegrowth. In 2018, the Company commenced the construction of aquatic health factories in Southeast Asia. Thesales from aquatic health business in Southeast Asia will become a new highlight in growth in the future. TheCompany’s livestock and poultry health is still in the early stage. As the capacity of livestock and poultry marketis far bigger than that of aquatic health market and the Company has accumulated years’ experience in the R&D inthe industries of pig vaccines and veterinary drugs, it will have huge space for the support to its own businessdevelopment and livestock and poultry feed development.3. Seedlings, pig farming and poultry meat processing businesses grew on all frontsDuring the reporting period, the Company’s agricultural product business generated sales revenue of RMB 1,742million, up by 44.37% year-on-year. The business mainly includes pig farming, aquaculture fry production ,andpoultry meat processing, which generated revenue of RMB 893 million, RMB 280 million and RMB 565 million,respectively.The Company had 700,000 slaughter pigs, up by 52% year-on-year, including about 200,000 self-supporting pigsand piglets and about 500,000 pigs raised in the “Company + Farmers” model. In 2018, the Company formed apreliminary model for its pig farming segment in cost control, farming technology and human resource reserve.With the expansion of the Company’s farming scale and increasingly mature farming service team, together withthe establishment of the Company’s farming technology research system and gradual implementation of thefarming information-based system which effectively supported the refinement of the Company’s farming system,the farming cost of “Company + Farmers” was cut down effectively step by step and the farming cost wascontrolled within RMB12/kg in the second half year. As at the end of the reporting period, the Company had morethan 800 employees working in the pig farming segment, up by 80% year-on-year. The refinement of the farmingsystem, the improvement of the farming technology and service staff’s skills and the reserve of professionals caneffectively support the subsequent rapid development of pig farming.Aquatic fry mainly include shrimp and fish fry. In terms of shrimp breed, the Company has established acomprehensive system and formed a relatively controllable and standard management model from geneticimprovement to propagation and reproduction. In particular, the Company has made great breakthroughs in whiteshrimp genetic selection, with advantages emerging in its self-developed strains. In terms of fish fry, the Companystarted the genetic selection and reproduction of special species including largemouth bass, snakehead, sea bass,grouper, mandarinfish and crawfish on the basis of continuing to reinforce the breeding R&D and organization ofgenetic selection programmes for the existing breeds including grass carp, crucian, beam, tilapia and yellowcatfish. With breakthroughs in R&D, the special aquaculture will comprise industrial chain advantages togetherwith the Company’s special aquatic feed and animal health products to serve farmers.Regarding the pou ltry meat processing business, in 2017, the Company set up meat duck slaughter and processingfactories in Shandong, which generated operating revenue of RMB 149 million and RMB 565 million in 2017 and2018, respectively. The business expansion was smooth. In addition to supporting the Company’s feed businessdevelopment, it further deepened the Company’s understanding of slaughter, meat product processing and foodbusinesses.4. The trade business generated revenue of RMB 4,875 million, up by 11.97% year-on-yearThe Company’s trade business mainly includes the trade of raw materials of feed. The profit growth points areincreased mainly through the direct conversion of the Company’s purchase advantages of centralized purchase,
large-scale purchase and the combination of futures and spot goods into its trade advantages. In the first half year,trade scale declined year-on-year as the Company controlled the trade scale of raw materials due to bigfluctuations in the price of such raw materials as beans and soybean meals resulting from US-China trade frictionsand substantial increase in capital costs caused by the tight monetary policy in China. In the second half year, theCompany’s trade scale increased as the monetary policy was eased.5. The Company continued to increase R&D spending, focused on the research in animal nutrition, reproductionand genetic improvement and farming model, created professional and differentiated terminal products, furtherenhanced product competence and built a technology-driven farming companyThe Company is determined to become a world’s first-class husbandry enterprise and the foundation lies intechnological innovation and technology-driven. The Company has one research institute, three research centersand over ten R&D pilot bases, which are equipped with a team comprising 59 members with the PhD Degree andnearly 220 with the Master’s Degree engaged in high-grade, precision and advanced R&D. They carry outresearch and development centering around all industrial chain links including breeding, anti-epidemic, farming tofeed, covering pig, chicken, duck, fish, shrimp and other species. Based on the nutrition requirements andproblems of cultured species in different farming stages, the “Database of Animal Nutrition Requirements” andthe “Database of Raw Material Utilization” have been established through whole-cycle experiments in growthperformance and farming. Over years of accumulation, the Company has reserved plentiful development andutilization technologies of new raw materials, application technologies of functional feed additives, formulas andsynthetic methods of energy-efficient and eco-friendly feed for aquaculture, livestock and poultry, and diseaseprevention and control methods for aquaculture, livestock and poultry.During the reporting period, the Company spent RMB 310 million on R&D, up by 21.76% year-on-year. Sinceestablishment, the Company has persisted in increasing R&D spending to systematically establish the technologyand specialization systems for breeding, anti-epidemic, nutrition and farming technology and enhance coreproduct competitiveness. The sustained generous R&D spending guarantees the Company’s leading industrialchain advantages in aquaculture breeding, feed, animal health and farming model and product competitiveness ofpig and poultry feed in the market.While conducting massive fundamental research, the Company gave even more focus on R&D application and theconversion of R&D achievements. During the reporting period, the Company’s new products converted fromR&D technologies included Miaojianle, a functional extruded feed for grass carp fingerling, crucian fingerling’sfunctional feed targeting crucian gill hemorrhage, highly effective health care feed for raw-fish-free culture oflarge yellow croaker, and Danduobao, a functional feed for laying ducks. All the products have generated positivemarket effects and product profits.

Inventory falling price reserves of RMB 0.75 million have beensufficiently provided for certain inventory goods whose costs are lower than the net realizable value. The other inventory turnover isnormal.2. As at the end of the reporting period, the book value of fixed assets of the Company was RMB 4,555.48 million. Except thatimpairment provisions of RMB 0.29 million have been sufficiently provided for certain finance lease fixed assets whose recoverableamounts are lower than the book value, the other fixed assets are in normal use and there has been no significant change inprofitability.3.

IX. Outlook on the Future Development of the Company
(I) Development status of the industryAccording to the "13th Five-Year Development Plan for National Feed Industry" (2016-2020) (全国饲料工业“十三五”发展规划（2016-2020 ）) issued by the Ministry of Agriculture, during the "13th Five-Year" period, asChina’s economic development has entered into a new normal, the farming industry has entered a new stage ofproduction slowdown, structural optimization, quality upgrade, layout adjustment and industrial integration andthe development of the feed industry faces many challenges in terms of market space, technological updating andindustrial integration.1. Feed demand is stable and the overall industry continues to growAccording to the development goals under the "13th Five -Year Development Plan for National Feed Industry"(2016-2020) (全国饲料工业“十三五”发展规划（2016-2020）), the national industrial feed production is expectedto reach 220 million tonnes in 2020. According to animal species, there are 94 million tonnes of pig feed , 60million tonnes of feed for poultry for meat, 31 million tonnes of feed for poultry for eggs, 20 million tonnes ofaquatic feed , 10 million tonnes of ruminant feed, 1.2 million tonnes of pet feed, and 3.8 million tonnes of otheranimal feeds. It is expected that the total amount of feed will increase by 20 million tonnes in the next five years,representing a growth rate of approximately 10%, and the annual average increase will be approximately 4 milliontonnes, representing a growth rate of approximately 1.9%.2. It is more apprent for technology to drive industry progressIn the differentiation and integrated development of the feed industry, technology has played an increasinglyimportant role in the industrial competition. The global agricultural products are becoming more and more closelyrelated. Weather conditions and trade frictions in certain regions will cause large fluctuations in the prices ofagricultural products. Animal farming requirements, feed formula adjustments, and raw material substitutiontechnologies are the core fields of feed technology competition. For other technologies, vigorous development ofbiological feed technology, continuous increase in the types and the continuous expansion of functions of feedmicrobes, enzyme preparations, etc. have shown tremendous potentials in promoting the reduction of the use offeed antibiotics and efficient utilization of feed resources, and will become new threshold of competition in theindustry.3. It is more urgent to conduct industrial integrationThe growth of the total amount of feed has slowed down, and the competition among enterprises has been fierce.Leading enterprises have accelerated their investment in industries and foreign countries. The feed enterpriseswith strong overall strength have advantages in capital, management, technology, and talents. They will furtheraccelerate the pace of entering the farming industry and building the entire industry chain in order to enhancesustainable development capability. The feed industry in emerging markets such as Southeast Asia, Northeast Asia,and Africa is in a rapid growth period, and the "going global" initiative is increasingly important for China's feedcompanies to expand their development space.4. Seedlings and animal healthcare industries will rapidly grow in longer periods due to technologicaladvancement and farming upgrades.Focusing on the development of the farming industry, the development trend of the feed business also indicates toa large extent that the high-quality animal seedlings will have a huge development demand in the long term.
Strengthening animal health care is an important trend feature of future animal farming development. Productdemand will grow rapidly.(II) Prospects for the future development of the CompanyThe Company's development strategy is to become a leading high-tech farming and animal husbandry companywith sustainable development capability in China. The Company's development is based on "creating value forcustomers". The Company will closely focus on the farming sector to provide farmers with comprehensivesolutions, including feed, seedling, animal healthcare products and farming technology services, and meet otherneeds of farmers and distributors for financial services, etc. to effectively enhance the profitability of theCompany's farmers and distributors and realize the win-win development of the Company and its customers.The basic strategy for the development of the Company's industrial chain is to scale up on the basis ofspecialization and to extend the industrial chain based on core competitiveness. The Company will focus on feedproducts as its core business. At the same time, it will actively develop raw materials, animal healthcare products,seedling, farming, circulation, and food processing businesses, cultivate the Company's professional capabilities inthe entire industry chain, and build its comprehensive core competitiveness in the industry chain.(III) Possible risks1. Risk of Periodical Fluctuations in the Feed Industry due to Abnormal Weather and Animal Epidemic Diseasesduring Animal ProductionThe feed industry mainly serves the downstream animal feeding industry. The abnormal changes in naturalelements such as weather, precipitation and typhoon may lead to fluctuations of the inventory of livestock oraquatic products and even the large-scale outbreak of animal diseases. This thus affects the demand for feed andlikely causes the risk of periodic and regional fluctuations of the latter. With the environmental changes and theexpansion of animal production industry, animal epidemic diseases may also occur occasionally. For instance, theAfrican swine fever virus broke out across China in August 2018. PRRSV-mediated pig disease, shrimp-relevantEMS epidemic disease and poultry-relevant “H7N9” disease all occurred recently. The outbreak of animaldiseases will directly inhibit the scale of animal production and reduce the demand for feed in the short term;major animal epidemic diseases may also dampen the demand from end-consumers, leading to a downturn of theanimal production industry, and further affect the feed demand, giving rise to adverse effects on the productionand operation of feed enterprises.Risk response measures: (1) The Company is currently fully deploying factories and developing local markets inmajor areas in Southern China, Central China, Eastern China and Northern China and overseas markets inSoutheast Asia, etc. and the expansion of regional distribution can effectively cope with the risk of weatheranomalies and natural disasters in local areas. (2) The Company's feed varieties cover pig feed, chicken feed, duckfeed and other livestock feed and fish feed, shrimp feed and other aquatic feed. With a variety of products and awell-balanced structure, it can effectively deal with the risk of single breed species and has strong comprehensiveanti-risk capability.2. Risk of Drastic Price Fluctuations of Major Raw MaterialsThe feed ingredients are mainly various kinds of staple agricultural products, mainly corn and soybeans (soybeanmeal). In recent years, the domestic and international agricultural product markets have been closely linked.Changes in the planting area and harvest of major grain-producing countries, purchasing and storage and subsidypolicies, import and export policies, fluctuations in logistics capacity and costs of shipping, exchange rates andothers may cause great fluctuations in prices of agricultural products, which, in turn, has a certain impact on thecost of feed and farming. With the strengthening of the internationalization of trade of agricultural products, thefactors for changes in the prices of agricultural products have become more complex and the price fluctuationshave therefore increased. If raw material prices fluctuate and the Company fails to understand the changes in feedraw materials in a timely manner and promptly implement strategic management and risk control of procurement,the Company may face the risk of rising integrated procurement costs.Risk response measures: (1) The Company divides raw material varieties and implements a combination of
centralized procurement of large varieties and local procurement of regional varieties, which not only guaranteesthe advantages of large-scale raw material procurement, but also obtains localization advantages from rapidresponse in respect of regional procurement; (2) The Company continuously invests in the construction of the rawmaterial procurement research system. The team of the professional raw material information research departmentis relatively mature. It conducts strategic procurement through the real-time tracking, research and judgment ofthe domestic and foreign bulk raw material market trends, and implements position risk management for bulk rawmaterials through futures hedging, raw materials trade and other tools to effectively control procurement risks; (3)The Company has accumulated rich experience in research and development of animal nutrition and feed formulatechnologies, and has research and development team composed of over 1,000 members. Large amounts of fundsare spent on research and development each year, focusing on animal nutrition requirements, feed formulatechnology, animal farming and genetic improvement, comprehensive investigation on healthy animal farmingstrategies, and other research areas. The Company has a profound understanding of animal nutritionalrequirements and higher level of expertise in comprehensive utilization of raw materials. Therefore, in case of rawmaterial price fluctuations, it can quickly adjust the formula to control the reasonable feed nutrient level andformula costs.3. Risk of Structural, Regional and Scale Adjustment to Farming Industry under Environmental ProtectionRegulations and PoliciesIn recent years, the State has introduced a series of environmental protection laws and regulations including thenew Environmental Protection Law (环保法), the Regulations on Prevention and Control of Pollution fromLarge-Scale Production of Livestock and Poultry (畜禽规模养殖污染防治条例), Action Plan for Prevention andTreatment of Water Pollution (水污染防治行动计划), and the Guiding Opinions on Adjusting the Layout of PigProduction in the Southern Water Network Region (关于促进南方水网地区生猪养殖布局调整), the "13thFive-Year Plan" on Ecological and Environmental Protection (“十三五”生态环境保护规划), which stipulatethe pollution prevention and control of animal production industry, increase the pollution control of animalproduction industry, and especially limit the production scale in the regions of key water sources and itssurrounding areas. According to the regulations and policies of the central government, banned areas andrestricted areas have been set up throughout the country, and pig farms in the banned areas in the southern waternetwork area are gradually relocating. The implementation of environmental protection policies will speed up thewithdrawal of private pig farming farmers, reduce the backward production capacity failing to meetenvironmental protection standards and with a small scale, and enable large -scale farmers to continuously expandtheir production capacity and improve the farming scale and structure; In addition, the establishment of bannedareas and restricted areas will enforce adjustments to the pig production capacity in all places across the country.The adjustments to the scale composition of pig production and the relocation of pig production area will certainlyhave a profound impact on the existing capacity layout, market share, pricing power and business model of thefeed industry. The impact of enforced environmental protection policies on the pig growing and feed industriesputs existing competitive companies in the market at risk of reshuffle.Risk response measures: (1) The Company continually improves its capability to serve farmers. In addition to feedproducts, the Company is also engaged in the industrial chain of animal healthcare products, vaccines and financeand has a strong stickiness to large-scale farmers; (2) The feed varieties of the Company cover livestock, poultry,and aquatic animals and the product line is abundant. The production lines for pig feed, chicken feed, duck feedand pelleted fish feed can be shared. The Company can rapidly shift the production layout and make adjustmentsto adapt to the changes in the industry by adjusting the production capacity in all places. (3) The Company adoptsmultiple models to speed up the production layout in areas with rich resources and strong environmental carryingcapacity, and to seize the market share of new animal farming areas.4. Risk of Exchange Rate FluctuationsThe global procurement of raw materials has become the norm. The scale of overseas investment and overseasoperations of the Company is also rapidly expanding. The scale of cross-border fund settlement and the stock ofoverseas assets have grown substantially, involving the currency types of various related countries. Currencyexchange rate fluctuations are subject to different influence factors, and exchange rate fluctuations in any currencymay have a certain impact on the settlement cost and asset stock value of the region.Risk response measures: (1) Based on the business scale, business model, and settlement characteristics in
different regions and countries, the Company strictly controls the exchange rate risks, carefully selects settlementcurrencies, and strives to achieve relatively balanced regional fund inflow and outflow through structuralarrangements of financing sources and financing types; (2) The expansion of two-way fluctuations in the RMBexchange rate has become the new normal. The Company further enhances its awareness of foreign exchange riskmanagement, and arranges settlement models based on the procurement and sales strategies and cyclecharacteristics of import and export operations. And forward foreign exchange settlement and sale, swaps, foreignexchange options and other financial instruments are flexibly used to lock the exchange rate risks, controlprocurement and sales costs, and control the possible risk brought about by exchange rate fluctuations.

When estimating, the management needs to make significantjudgments and assumptions, including the determination of key parameters such as thefuture selling price, the cost of production, the operating expense, the discount rate andthe growth rate. As the goodwill impairment test involved a complex process and thesignificant judgments of the Company’s management, we paid close attention to the
goodwill impairment during our audit.2. How Our Audit Addressed the Key Audit Matter1) We obtained an understanding of the key internal controls associated withimpairment in goodwill, evaluated the effectiveness of their design and execution, aswell as tested how effectively these internal controls worked.2) We analyzed the key assumptions and methods adopted by the management inidentifying the asset group of goodwill and carrying out the impairment test ongoodwill, as well as evaluated the appropriateness of the valuation methods used by themanagement in estimating the cash flows.3) We compared the relevant asset groups’ actual results in 2018 with theircorresponding estimates made in the prior year to evaluate the reliability of themanagement’s estimates on cash flows. We evaluated the appropriateness of the sheetof recoverable amount estimates of goodwill asset groups prepared by the managementby comparing the financial data on the sheet with the actual operating data, theoperating plans and the budgets approved by the management.4) We discussed with the management about the possibility of changes to the keyassumptions, as well as evaluated the appropriateness of the key assumptions such asthe future revenue growth rate, the forecast gross margin percentage, the expense ratioand the discount rate that the management used in estimating the cash flows.5) We examined the investment agreements, the performance commitments and theacquisition evaluation reports, evaluated the pertinence and appropriateness of thevaluation specialists’ work results or conclusions, as well as evaluated the competence,professionalism and objectivity of the independent valuation specialists, so as torecheck the appropriateness of the Company’s judgment of impairment signs ingoodwill, taking into consideration the investees’ operating status .6) We tested whether the calculation of the net present value of future cash flows wascorrect.IV. Other InformationThe Company’s management is responsible for the other information. The otherinformation comprises all of the information included in the Company’s 2018 AnnualReport other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we donot express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read theother information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materiallyinconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit orotherwise appears to be materially misstated.If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a materialmisstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.V. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for
Financial StatementsThe Company’s management is responsible for the preparation of the financialstatements that give a fair view in accordance with CAS, and for designing,implementing and maintaining such internal control as the management determines isnecessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from materialmisstatement, whether due to fraud or error.In preparing the financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing theCompany’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, mattersrelated to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless themanagement either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have norealistic alternative but to do so.Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’sfinancial reporting process.VI. Auditor’s Responsibilities for Audit of Financial StatementsOur objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financialstatements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud orerror, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assuranceis a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted inaccordance with CAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individuallyor in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economicdecisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.As part of an audit in accordance with CAS, we exercise professional judgment andmaintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
(1) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to thoserisks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis forour opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud ishigher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.(2) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to designaudit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose ofexpressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.(3) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness ofaccounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.(4) Conclude on the appropriateness of the management’s use of the going concernbasis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material
uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on theCompany’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a materialuncertainty exists, we are required by CAS to draw users’ attention in our auditor’sreport to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures areinadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidenceobtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditionsmay cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.(5) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements,including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlyingtransactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.(6) Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information ofthe entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on thefinancial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performanceof the Company audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters,the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including anynoteworthy deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we havecomplied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicatewith them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear onour independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determinethose matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements ofthe current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters inour auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about thematter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should notbe communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so wouldreasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of suchcommunication.

Accounting Treatment for Business Combination Involving Entities under CommonControl and that not under Common Control(1) Business Combination Involving Entities under Common ControlThe assets and liabilities acquired by the Group in a business combination are measured at thecarrying value of the consolidated party in the final controller’s consolidated statements on the dayof combining. The combining party shall adjust the capital reserve (share capital premium) bytaking the difference between the carrying value of the owner’s equity of the combined party inthe consolidated financial statements of the final controller and the carrying value of theconsideration paid by the combing party; if the capital reserve (share capital premium) is notsufficient for offset, retained earnings shall be adjusted.Direct expenses incurred from such business combination shall be included in the current profitsor losses.(2) Business Combination Involving Entities not under Common ControlFor the business combination involving entities not under common control, the combining costsburdened by the purchasing party and the net identifiable assets acquired through suchcombination shall be measured at their fair value on the day of purchasing. When the combiningcosts is more than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the purchased party on the day ofpurchasing, the difference shall be recognized as Goodwill; otherwise, such difference shall beincluded in the current profits or losses.Direct expenses incurred from such business combination shall be included in the current profitsor losses.For the business combination involving entities not under common control realized step by stepthrough various transactions, the equities held in the purchased party before the day of purchasingshall be remeasured at the fair value on the day of purchasing, and the difference between the fairvalue and the carrying value shall be included in the current income from investment; if theequities held in the purchased party before the day of purchasing involve other comprehensiveearnings, such comprehensive earnings shall be transferred into the income from investmentduring the period (involving the day of purchasing). Goodwill shall be the difference between thesum of the fair value of the equities previously held in the purchased party and the fair value of theconsideration paid on the day of purchasing, and the fair value of net identifiable assets acquiredfrom subsidiaries on the day f purchasing.6. Methods of Preparing Consolidated Financial StatementsThe Company and its subsidiaries shall be included in the scope of consolidated financialstatements, and the financial status, operating results and cash flow from the beginning of suchcontrol to the end of such control shall be reflected in these financial statements.For subsidiaries obtained through business combination involving entities under common control,when the financial statements during this period are prepared and consolidated, it shall be deemedthat the combined subsidiaries have been included in the Group’s scope of consolidation upon the

If the current losses burdened by minority shareholders of the subsidiaries exceed theirshares held in Owner’s Equity at the beginning of this period, the difference shall be applied tooffset Minority Equity.When any subsidiary applies different accounting period or policies from that applied by theGroup, necessary adjustments shall be made to the subsidiary’s financial statements according tothe Group’s accounting period or policies. During the business combination, all significanttransactions and balances within the Group’s scope of combination, including the unrealizedprofits or losses on internal transactions, are offset.

A. The financial asset is obtained mainly for sale or buy-back in the near future;B. It is a part of identifiable financial instruments portfolio under centralized management, andany objective evidence proves that the Group has recently managed the portfolio by using theshort-term profit method;C. It belongs to the derivative instrument, but it’s designated as the derivative instrument for theeffective arbitrage tool, and belongs to the derivative instrument of the financial guaranteecontract, excluding the derivative instrument related to the equity instrument investment withoutany offer on the active market whose fair value cannot be reliably measured (correspondingsettlement is subject to the delivery of the equity instrument).The subsequent measurement of the trading financial assets shall be carried out at the fair value,and profits or losses from changes in the fair value and the dividend and interest income related tothe financial assets shall be included in current profits or losses.② Loans and Accounts ReceivableLoans and accounts receivable are non-derivative financial assets that have no quoted price in anactive market and have a fixed or determinable recovery amount. Financial assets classified by theGroup as loans and accounts receivable shall include notes receivable, accounts receivable,interest receivable and other receivables.Loans and receivables are subsequently measured at amortized costs by using the effective interestrate method. Gains or losses arising from the derecognition, impairment or amortization shall beincluded in current profits or losses.③ Available-for-sale Financial AssetsAvailable-for-sale Financial Assets refer to the available-for-sale non-derivative financial assetsdesignated when they are initially recognized and other financial assets that cannot be classified.However, for the equity instrument investment that has no quoted price in an active market andwhose fair value cannot be reliably measured and the derivative financial assets that are related tothe equity instrument and must be settled by delivering the equity instrument, the follow-upmeasurement shall be conducted based on the costs; for others that have an quoted price in theactive market or whose fair value can be reliably measured in despite of no quoted price in theactive market, they shall be measured at the fair value, and changes in the fair value shall beincluded in other comprehensive earnings. The available-for-sale debt instrument investmentwhose interests are calculated by using the effective interest method during the holding period andthe cash dividend related to the available-for-sale equity instrument investment which is declaredfor distribution by the invested units shall be calculated in current profits or losses as the incomefrom investment.④ Other Financial LiabilitiesThe sum of the fair value and relevant transaction expenses shall be regarded as the amount forinitial recognition, and the subsequent measurement shall be conducted at the amortized costs.
(3) Determination of Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesIf there exists an active market, financial assets held or financial liabilities that will be assumed bythe Group shall adopt the current quoted price in the active market; financial assets that will bepurchased by the Group or financial liabilities assumed by the Group shall adopt the current offerin the active market. If there is no such quoted price or offer, the market quotes for recenttransactions or market quotes for adjusted recent transactions shall prevail unless there is any solidevidence proving that such market quotes are not fair value.If there does not exist an active market, the Group shall apply corresponding valuation techniquesto determine the fair value, including referring to similar cases and the price used by variousparties for recent market transactions, referring to the current fair value of other equivalentfinancial instruments in nature, the discount cash flow method and the option pricing models etc..(4) Recognition and Measurement of the Transfer of Financial AssetsThe transfer of financial assets refers to the transfer or delivery of the financial assets to the issuerby the Group, and all and any part of financial assets can be transferred in the following twoforms:
a. the transfer of the right to collect the cash flow of the financial assets to the other party;b. the financial assets are transferred to the other party, but the right to collect the cash flow of thefinancial assets is retained and it’s also obliged to pay such collected cash flow to the finalbeneficiary.

c. when all or part of the Group’s current obligations related to the financial liabilities areterminated, the financial liabilities or part of that can only be derecognized.(6) Impairment of Financial AssetsThe Group shall check the carrying value of financial assets other than trading financial assets onthe balance sheet date. If there is any objective evidence proving that the financial assets areimpaired, corresponding impairment allowance shall be calculated and withdrawn. For a singlefinancial asset of a significant amount, a separate impairment test is required. If there is anyobjective evidence proving that it has been impaired, the impairment loss shall be recognized andincluded in current profits or losses. For financial assets with insignificant single amounts thatshow no sign of impairment through conducting a separate test, the Group shall conductcorresponding impairment tests based on the credit portfolio to determine impairment losses basedon the creditworthiness of the client and the actual situation of doubtful accounts incurred over theyears.① Impairment of Loans and Accounts ReceivableWhen a financial asset measured at amortized cost is impaired, the impairment loss shall becalculated based on the difference between the carrying value and the present value of theestimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate and included in theprofits or losses for the current period. After the impairment loss has been recognized for afinancial asset measured at amortized cost, if there is any objective evidence proving that the valueof the financial asset has been recovered and is objectively related to the event that occurred afterthe loss is recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss shall be reversed, and includedin current profits or losses. However, the reversed carrying value shall not exceed the amortizedcost of the financial asset on the day of reversal under the assumption that no allowance forimpairment is calculated and withdrawn.② Impairment of Available-for-sale Financial AssetsIf the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets declines significantly, or it is expected thatthe downward trend will be non-transient after considering various relevant factors in acomprehensive manner, it will be deemed that it has been impaired and the accumulative lossesresulting from the decline in the fair value that are supposed to be directly included in the owner’sequity shall be all transferred out and corresponding impairment losses shall also be recognized.11.

13. Inventory(1) Classification of Inventory: raw materials, merchandise inventory, goods in process,consumptive biological assets and work in process-outsourced etc..(2) Inventory Valuation: the inventory upon obtained shall be valuated based on the actual costsand that shall be valuated by using the one-time weighted average method when received and sentout at the end of the month.(3) Inventory valuation allowance: At the end of the period, the valuation shall be made based onthe lower between the carrying value and the net realizable value, and the recognition standardshall be: the inventory’s selling price is lower than the cost; or relevant inventories are replaced,damaged or obsolete due to various reasons, in which case, a comparison shall be made betweenthe carrying value and the net realizable value of such inventories based on the single inventoryitem (the item of wide varieties and lower unit price by category); corresponding inventoryvaluation allowance shall be calculated and withdrawn based on the difference between the netrealizable value (the inventory’s net realizable value shall be determined based on the estimatedselling price minus the estimated completion costs and all necessary selling expenses) and thecarrying value, and included in current profits or losses.When all factors that may cause the depreciation of the inventory have disappeared, it shall bereversed to the write-down amount not exceeding the valuation allowance amount previouslycalculated and withdrawn and included in current profits or losses.(4) For inventory losses and damaged inventories, possible reasons shall be investigated before theend of this Reporting Period according to the actual costs, and they shall be well disposed beforethe final settlement at the end of the period. The inventory profit shall be recorded in the accountbased on the replacement cost and rearranged into the current management expenses.14. Long-term Equity InvestmentThe long-term equity investment shall include the long-term equity investment into subsidiariesand the long-term equity investment into joint ventures and cooperative enterprises.Subsidiaries refer to the invested units that the Group can exercise control over; joint venturesrefer to the invested units that the Group can exercise joint control with other parties; andcooperative enterprises refer to the invested units subject to the Group’s significant influence oncorresponding financial and business operation decisions. .The investment into subsidiaries shall be presented in the Group’s financial statements based onthe amount determined by using the cost method, and consolidated after being adjusted by meansof the equity method while preparing the consolidated financial statements; the investment intojoint ventures and cooperative enterprises shall be checked and calculated by using the equitymethod.(1) Determination of Investment CostThe long-term equity investment calculated by using the cost method shall be measured accordingto the initial investment cost. For the long-term equity investment calculated by using the equitymethod, the initial investment cost shall be regarded as the long-term equity investment cost when
the initial investment cost is greater than the fair value of the net identifiable assets held in theinvested units; otherwise, the difference shall be included in current profits or losses, and thelong-term equity investment cost shall accordingly be adjusted and increase.(2) Subsequent Measurement and Profits/Losses Recognition MethodThe long-term equity investment calculated by using the cost method, the cash dividend or profitdeclared by the invested units for distribution shall be recognized as the income from investmentand included in current profits or losses.For the long-term equity investment calculated by using the equity method the Group shallrecognize current investment gains and losses based on the shares of the net income or loss of theinvested units that shall be held or shared. While recognizing the net losses of the invested units,the carrying value of the long-term equity investment and other long-term equities substantiallyconstituting the net investment into the invested units shall be written off to zero. However, whenthe Group is obliged to assume corresponding extra losses and relevant estimated liabilitiesrecognition conditions stipulated in Contingency Criterion are met, it’s necessary to continue therecognition of investment losses and finish corresponding check and calculation by regarding it asthe estimated liabilities. For other changes in the shareholders’ equity except the net incomes orlosses of the invested units, when the Group’s shareholding ratio remains unchanged, the part ofamount calculated based on such shareholding ratio shall be directly included in othercomprehensive earnings. Accordingly, the carrying value of the long-term equity investment shallbe decreased based on the part of amount duly distributed to the group when the invested unitshave declared and distributed the profit or cash dividend. The unrealized internal transactionprofits or losses between the Group and the invested units shall be the basis for calculating the partattributable to the Group according to corresponding shareholding ratio, and that part shall beoffset, on which basis, corresponding investment profits or losses shall be recognized. For theinternal transaction losses incurred between the Group and the invested units, the part attributableto the assets impairment losses and the unrealized losses shall not be offset.(3) Basis for Confirming Control, Joint Control and Significant Influence on the Invested UnitsControl refers to the right to decide relevant financial and business operation policies for theinvested units, on which basis, corresponding benefits can be obtained from their operatingactivities. While confirming whether the control can be exercised over the invested units, variouspotential voting factors including the invested units’ current convertible bond and the currentexecutable warrants shall also be taken into consideration.Joint control refers to the shared control over a certain economic activity as required in thecontract, and only exists when all investors sharing such control over significant financial andbusiness operation decisions related to the economic activity have consented.Significant impact refers to the right retained by the Group to participate in deciding variousfinancial and business operation policies of the invested units, but the Group cannot control orjointly control the formulating of these policies with other participators.15. Investment PropertyInvestment property refers to the properties held for the purpose of obtaining the rent or capitalgain or both, including the leased land use right, the land use right held and available for transferafter appreciation, and the leased building. The Group’s investment property mainly includes theleased building, and the Group shall conduct the initial measurement of the existing real estatebased on the costs, and complete the subsequent measurement based on the fair value. Meanwhile,corresponding depreciation shall be calculated and withdrawn by using the same method with theproperty, plant and equipment.
16. Property, Plant and Equipment
(1) Recognition Conditions
Property, plant and equipment (PP&E) refers to the tangible assets held for the purpose ofproducing goods, rendering services, renting or conducting business operation with the service lifeexceeding one accounting year. PP&E can be classified into House and Building, MechanicalEquipment, Transportation Equipment, Electronic Equipment and Other Equipment. PP&E can berecognized only when the following conditions are met: a. the economic benefit related to thePP&E is likely to flow in the Company; b. the costs can be reliably measured.
(2) Depreciation Methods:
| Type | Depreciation Method | Period of Depreciation (years) | Ratio of Remaining Value | Yearly Depreciation |

| Other Equipment | Straight-line Depreciation Method | 3-5 years | 5 | 31.67-19.00 |
Note 1: For the immovable building on the leased land, the depreciation period shall adopt theshorter period between the land usage right lease term and the PP&E’s expected service period.Note 2: The Group shall own the permanent ownership of the land purchased in India and Ecuador.As the land’s service life is uncertain, the Group has not calculated and withdrawn correspondingdepreciation, and the impairment test shall be conducted every year.
(3) PP&E Held for Sale:
The Group shall adjust the estimated net remaining value of the held-for-sale PP&E, and base onsuch value to reflect the amount of the fair value minus relevant disposal expenses withoutexceeding the original carrying value of the PP&E when relevant held-for-sale conditions are met.The difference between the original carrying value and the estimated net remaining value shall beincluded in current profits or losses as the assets impairment loss. Corresponding depreciationshall not be calculated and withdrawn for the held-for-sale PP&E.17. Construction in ProgressFor construction in progress, all necessary expenses incurred before the assets is built to achieveits expected service status shall be regarded as the entry value of PP&E. When the built PP&E hasachieved its expected service status, but the completion settlement has not been done yet, it shallbe transferred into PP&E from the day when it achieves the expected service status according to
the construction budget, cost or the project’s actual costs and the estimated value, and thedepreciation shall be calculated and withdrawn according to the Company’s depreciation policiesgeared to PP&E. Upon the final settlement, the provisional value previously estimated shall beadjusted based on the actual costs, but the depreciation amount previously calculated andwithdrawn shall not be adjusted. The Group shall accordingly capitalize the special loans appliedfor the purchasing, construction or production of assets meeting corresponding capitalizationrequirements or the loan interest resulting from occupying the general borrowing and auxiliaryexpenses resulting from the special loan before the purchased, constructed or produced assetsmeeting corresponding capitalization requirements achieve the expected usable or marketablestatus.18. Borrowing CostsFor the Group’s borrowing costs, the amount that can be directly attributed to the purchase &construction or construction of the assets in conformity with relevant capitalization requirementsshall be capitalized and included in relevant assets costs.Except for the above-mentioned borrowing costs, other borrowings costs shall be recognized asfinancial expenses.There’s no capitalized borrowing costs during this Reporting Period.19. Living Assets(1) The Group’s living assets include consumptive living assets and productive living assets.(2) The living assets acquired by the Group shall be initially measured based on the costs.a. The costs of purchased external living assets include the purchase price, transportation costs,insurance premiums, related taxes, and other expenses directly attributable to the purchase of theassets.b. The costs of self-propagated or farmed consumptive living assets shall be determined inaccordance with the necessary expenditures such as feed costs, labor costs, and indirectapportioned expenses incurred prior to the sale.c. The costs of self-propagated productive living assets shall be determined in accordance with thenecessary expenditures such as feed costs, labor costs, and indirect apportioned expenses incurredbefore the intended production and business objectives (ages) are achieved.d. The costs of living assets input by investors shall be determined in accordance with the valuestipulated in the investment contract or agreement, unless such assets cannot be measured at thefair value as required in the contract or agreement.
(3) Subsequent Measurement
a. Subsequent expenditures including maintenance and feeding expenses etc. incurred after theclosure of the living assets or the planned production and management purpose are achieved shallbe recognized as current expenses.b. The Group’s productive living assets that meet the intended production and operation objectivesshall be depreciated on a scheduled basis, and shall be respectively included in the costs or currentexpenses of relevant assets according to their purposes.c. At the end of each year, the Group shall inspect consumptive living assets and productive livingassets. If there is any solid evidence proving that the net realizable value of the consumptive living
assets or the recoverable amount of the productive living assets is lower than the carrying valuedue to natural disasters, animal disease infestations, or changes in market demand, the differencebetween the net realizable value or the recoverable amount and the carrying value shall serve asthe basis for calculating and withdrawing the living assets depreciation reserves or impairmentprovisions, and be recognized as current losses.If various factors that may cause the depreciation of consumptive living assets have disappeared,the write-down amount shall be recovered, restituted from the depreciation provisions previouslycalculated and withdrawn, and included in current profits or losses. Upon the calculation andwithdrawing of productive living assets impairment provisions, it cannot be reversed.(4) Acquisition and Disposala. The consumptive living assets when acquired or sold shall carry over the costs at the carryingvalue.b. Agricultural products produced by productive living assets shall be calculated and determinedbased on the necessary expenses such as material costs, labor costs, and indirect apportionedexpenses during the output process, and the carrying value shall be carried forward to the productcosts.c. The costs of the living asset after the change in the purpose shall be determined based on thecarrying value at the time of such change.d. When the living assets are sold out, the balance resulting from the income minus the carryingvalue and related taxes shall be included in current profits or losses.20. Intangible Assets(I) Valuation Method and Service Life(1) Determination Standard and Classification of Intangible AssetsIntangible assets refer to identifiable non-monetary assets without physical form owned orcontrolled by the Group, including land use rights, patented technologies, software use rights,trademark rights, and non-patent technologies.(2) Valuation of Intangible Assets:
a. The costs of the purchased external intangible assets shall be determined based on the actualexpenses incurred before it achieves the expected purpose;b. The costs of the intangible assets input by investors shall be determined based on the amountagreed in the investment contract or agreement, unless the assets cannot be measured at the fairvalue as required in the contract or agreement;c. The intangible assets acquired from the debtor that has resorted to the non-cash assets to pay thedebt, or the intangible assets exchanged by using the credit receivable shall be recognized by thefair value of the exchanged intangible assets;d. The costs of the intangible assets invested for non-monetary transactions shall be determinedbased on the fair value and related taxes;e. For donated intangible assets, if the donor provides relevant credentials, it shall be pricedaccording to the amount indicated on the certificate plus the relevant taxes and fees payable; if thedonor does not provide relevant credentials and there is an active market for similar or similarintangible assets, the estimated market price of similar or similar intangible assets plus the relevant
taxes and fees payable shall be regarded as the actual costs; if there is no active market for similaror similar intangible assets, the present value of the estimated future cash flows of the donatedintangible assets shall be regarded as the actual costs.(3) Amortization of intangible assets: Intangible assets with a limited service life shall beamortized within the estimated service life by using the straight-line method. If the period duringwhich the intangible assets can bring future economic benefit to the Group cannot be forecast, itshall be deemed as the intangible assets with uncertain service life. However, Intangible assetswith uncertain service life shall not be amortized.(II) Accounting policies for internal R&D expensesThe expenditure of the Group’s internal R&D projects shall be divided into Research Expenditureand Development Expenditure.Upon incurred, Research Expenditure shall be included in current profits or losses.When the following requirements are met, Development Expenditure can thus be capitalized;otherwise, it shall be included in current profits or losses:
The intangible assets is completed and available for use or sales, and it is feasible technically;Intend to complete the intangible assets and make it usable or marketable;The way available for the intangible assets to generate the economic benefit, including the abilityin proving that products generated by the intangible assets exist in the market or the intangibleassets itself exists in the market; if the intangible assets is only for internal use, its serviceabilitycan be proved;Technical resources, financial resources and other resources are sufficient to support thedevelopment of the intangible assets with the ability in using or selling the intangible assets;Expenditure attributed to the development stage of the intangible assets can be reliably measured.After the above requirements are met, the technical feasibility study and economic feasibilitystudy are completed and the project is established, it shall enter the development stage.Capitalized development expenditure shall be presented in the balance sheet as DevelopmentExpenses, and transferred to intangible assets on the day when it meets corresponding usableconditions.If Research Expenditure and Development Expenditure cannot be clearly differentiated, all R&DExpenses incurred shall be included in current profits or losses.21. GoodwillFor the business combination involving entities not under common control, the difference betweenthe combining costs and the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired from the purchased partyshall be recognized as Goodwill. Please refer to Note III. 23 for detailed Goodwill impairment testand accounting treatments.22. Long-term Prepaid ExpensesLong-term prepaid expenses refer to various expenses incurred that shall be amortized during thisperiod and subsequent periods with its amortization period exceeding 1 year, which shall berecognized based on the actual costs and amortized by using the average method within the
expected benefit period.23. Long-term Assets ImpairmentIn terms of PP&E, construction in progress, intangible assets with limited service life, theinvestment property measured based on the cost mode, the long-term equity investment intosubsidiaries, joint ventures and cooperative enterprises and other non-current non-financial assets,the Company shall judge whether there exists any sign of impairment on the balance sheet date. Ifexists, the recoverable amount shall be estimated and the impairment test shall be conducted. ForGoodwill, the intangible assets with uncertain service life and the intangible assets are notavailable for use, whether there is any sign of impairment, the impairment test shall be carried outevery year.If the impairment test results indicate that the recoverable amount is less than the carrying value,corresponding impairment allowance shall be calculated and withdrawn according to thedifference and included in the impairment losses. The recoverable amount shall be the highervalue between the net amount of the assets’ fair value minus relevant disposal expenses and thepresent value of the estimated future cash flow. The assets’ fair value shall be determinedaccording to the price stated in the sales agreement for fair transactions; if there is no such salesagreement, but there is an active market, the fair value shall be subject to the offer of the assets’buyer; if there is no such sales agreement, nor an active market, the assets’ fair value shall beestimated based on the available best information. Relevant disposal expenses shall include legalexpenses, related taxes, transportation expenses and direct expenses incurred before the assetsachieve the expected usable status. The present value of the assets’ estimated future cash flowshall be determined according to the expected future cash flow resulting from its continuous usageand final disposal and the amount discounted based on an appropriate discount rate. The assetsimpairment provisions shall be calculated and determined based on each single asset; if it isdifficult to estimate the recoverable amount of such single asset, the recoverable amount of theassets group can be determined, and the assets group shall be the minimum assets group that canindependently produce corresponding cash flow.When the impairment test is conducted for the Goodwill separately listed in financial statements,the carrying value of Goodwill shall be amortized to the asset group or the asset group portfoliothat is expected to benefit from the synergistic effect of the business combination. If theimpairment test results indicate that the recoverable amount is less than the carrying value,corresponding impairment losses shall be recognized. However, the impairment losses shall firstlyoffset and be amortized to the carrying value of such Goodwill, and then offset the carrying valueof other assets other than Goodwill based on corresponding proportions.When the above assets impairment losses are recognized, the part of amount that is recovered shallnot be reversed.24. Employee CompensationEmployee Compensation refers to various forms of remuneration or compensation given by theCompany to obtain services provided by employees or to terminate labor relations. Employeecompensation includes short-term compensation, post-employment benefits, dismissal benefits,and other long-term employee benefits.(1) Accounting Treatment Method for Short-term CompensationShort-term compensation mainly includes wages, bonuses, allowances and subsidies, staff welfarefees, medical insurance premiums, maternity insurance premiums, industrial injury insurancepremiums, housing accumulation funds, trade union funds, staff education funds, andnon-monetary benefits. The Group will provide employees with various forms of remunerationand other related expenses during the accounting period in which the employees provide services
to the Group, including wages, bonuses, allowances, subsidies and staff welfare payments foremployees, and medical insurance, pension insurance premiums, unemployment insurancepremiums, industrial injury insurance premiums, maternity insurance premiums and other socialinsurance premiums paid for employees. However, housing accumulation funds, employeeeducation funds, trade union funds, non-monetary benefits etc. shall be recognized as liabilitiesand included in current profits or losses or related asset costs. Non-monetary benefits aremeasured at fair value.(2) Accounting Treatment Method for Post-employment BenefitsPost-employment benefits refer to various forms of remuneration and benefits provided toemployees after they have retired or terminated the labor relation with the Company in order toobtain services from them, except short-term compensation and dismissal benefits. The Companyclassifies post-employment benefit plans into the defined contribution plan and the defined benefitplan.The defined contribution plan: After the Group has paid fixed fees to an independent fund, theGroup shall no longer assume further payment obligation for the post-employment benefit plan,including the basic endowment insurance and the unemployment insurance etc.. During theaccounting period in which the employees work for the Group, the payments made for the definedcontribution plan shall be recognized as liabilities and included in current profits or losses orrelated asset costs.The defined benefit plan refers to the post-employment benefit plan other than the definedcontribution plan.(3) Accounting Treatment Method for Dismissal BenefitsDismissal Benefits refer to the compensation given to the employees for the termination of thelabor relation before the labor contract expires or for the purpose of encouraging the employees tovoluntarily accept such dismissal. When the Company provides corresponding dismissal benefitsto the employees, the employee compensation liabilities resulting from such dismissal benefitsshall be recognized on the earlier date between the following two dates and included in currentprofits or losses:
(I) the day when the Company cannot unilaterally withdraw the dismissal benefits due to thetermination of labor relation or the redundancy.(II) the day when the Company recognizes various costs related to the restructuring of the paymentof dismissal benefits.(4) Accounting Treatment Method for Other Long-term Employee BenefitsOther long-term employee benefits refer to all employee compensations other than short-termcompensation, post-employment benefits and dismissal benefits, including long-term compensatedabsences, long-term disability benefits, and long-term profit sharing plans etc.. For otherlong-term employee benefits provided by the Group to its employees, the Group will recognize thelong-term profit sharing given to the employees as the liability during the accounting period inwhich the employees provide services to the Group, which shall be included in current profits orlosses or related asset costs. Those unfinished payments within 12 months after the end of theannual reporting period shall be recognized as long-term employee compensation payable.25. ProvisionsIf the contingency-related obligation is the current obligation assumed by the Group, theperformance of such obligation is likely to result in the outflow of economic benefits from the
Group, and the related amount can be measured reliably, the Group shall recognize a provision.The Company’s provisions shall be initially measured based on the best estimate of all neededexpenses for fulfilling current obligations. If it will exert great impact on the time value ofcurrency, the best estimate shall be determined after the discounting of relevant future cashoutflows. While determining the best estimate, the Company shall take various factors intoconsideration including the risks related to contingent events, the uncertainty and the time value ofcurrency. If all needed expenses exist within a continuous range (or interval), and the possibilitiesfor various results are identical within such range, the best estimate shall be determined accordingto the intermediate value; in other cases, the best estimate shall be respectively determined asfollows:
-- if the contingent events involves any single item, the best estimate shall be determined based onthe amount of the highest possibility in being incurred;-- if the contingent events involve various items, the best estimate shall be calculated according tovarious possible results and relevant probabilities.The Group shall double check the carrying value of provisions on the balance sheet date, andadjust such carrying value according to the current best estimate.26. Revenue(1) Revenue from selling commodities shall be recognized when all requirements are met asfollows:
a. main risks and returns related to the property in the goods are transferred to the buyer;b. the continuing control right usually linked with the property is not retained, the valid controlover the sold goods is not executed;c. the received amount can be reliably measured;d. relevant economic benefits are likely to flow in the Company;e. relevant costs incurred or estimated can be reliably measured.To be specific, The Group will deliver the product to the purchaser in accordance with the termsof the contract or the agreement, and the purchaser will confirm the such delivery. Then, thecorresponding revenue shall be recognized. The purchaser has the right to sell and use the producton its own after receiving it and shall bear the risk of price fluctuations or any damage to theproduct.(2) Revenue from service rendering shall be recognized when the following requirements are met:
a. the received amount can be reliably measured;b. relevant economic benefits are very likely to flow in the Group;c. the completion status can be reliably defined;d. costs incurred and estimated during the transaction can be reliably measured.The rendering of service that commences and finishes during the same accounting year shall berecognized as revenue when such service rendering finishes.(3) Revenue from the transfer of the assets usage right shall be recognized when the following
requirements are met:
a. relevant economic benefits are very likely to flow into the Group;b. the received amount can be reliably measured.27. Government SubsidiesWhen various requirements related to the government subsidy are met and the government subsidycan be acquired, the Group shall recognize such government subsidy. However,(1) When the government subsidy is the monetary assets, it shall be measured based on thereceived amount or the amount receivable; if the government subsidy is the non-monetary assets,it shall be measured based on the fair value; if the fair value cannot be reliably obtained, it shall bemeasured based on the nominal amount.(2) The assets-related government subsidy shall be recognized as the deferred income, distributedaveragely within the assets’ service life and included in current profits or losses. However, thegovernment subsidy measured at the nominal amount shall be directly included in current profitsand losses. The income-related government subsidy that will be applied to compensate relevantexpenses or losses during subsequent periods shall be recognized as the deferred income, andincluded in current profits or losses during the period when relevant expenses are recognized; ifapplied to compensate relevant expenses or losses incurred, it shall be directly included in currentprofits or losses.If no object is specified in the government subsidy document, the judgment basis for the Group toclassify the government subsidy into the assets-related government subsidy and the income-relatedgovernment subsidy shall be: the government subsidy applied to purchase, construct and form thelong-term assets by other means shall be classified as the assets-related government subsidy; if itis difficult to be classified, it shall be regarded as the assets-related government subsidy as awhole.(3) The government subsidy related to the Group’s daily operations shall be included in otherincome or applied to write down relevant costs according to the nature of the economic transaction;otherwise, it shall be included in non-operating gain and loss.(4) When the recognized government subsidy is required to return, corresponding accountingtreatments shall be carried out according to the following provisions: when the book value ofrelevant assets is offset upon initially recognized, the book value shall be adjusted; when relevantdeferred incomes exist, the book value of such deferred incomes shall be offset, and the excessshall be included in the current profits or losses; in other cases, it shall be directly included in thecurrent profits or losses.(5) Fiscal Discount: If the government financial department directly grants the discounted interestto the Group, corresponding discounted interest shall be applied to offset relevant borrowing costs.28. Share-based Payments(1) Types of Share-based PaymentsThe Group’s share-based payments are equity-settled share-based payments. Specific equityinstruments include restricted stocks and stock options issued by companies that allow holders topurchase a fixed amount of ordinary shares of the Company at a fixed price.(2) Determination Method for the Fair Value of Equity Instruments
Share-based payment settled in the form of equity for obtaining the service rendered by employeesshall be measured based on the fair value of the equity instrument awarded to employees. If thereis an active market, it shall be determined according to the quoted price in the active market;otherwise, it shall be determined by using the valuation techniques, including reference to familiarsituations and the price adopted by various parties in recent market transactions, reference to thecurrent fair value of other financial instruments of the same nature, the discount cash flow methodand the option pricing model etc..(3) Basis for Determining the Best Estimate of Executable Equity InstrumentsOn each balance sheet date within the waiting period, the Group shall revise the number of equityinstruments that are expected to be exercised based on follow-up information such as the changein the number of employees with vesting rights and the completion of performance indicators, inwhich basis, expenses to be apportioned in each period shall be recognized. On the day ofexecution, the expected number of executable equity instruments shall be consistent with theactual number of executable equity instruments.(4) Accounting Treatments Related to the Implementation of Share-based Payment Plana. Accounting Treatment on the day of awardingFor the equity incentive plan granted to employees by the Group for restricted stocks, the Groupshall recognize capital stock and capital reserve (share capital premium) on the grant date based onthe subscription money received from employees, and at the same time, the Group shall confirmthe liabilities for the repurchase obligation based on the total repurchase amount, which shall beincluded in treasury stocks, and listed in the balance sheet as an allowance item for shareholders’equity.For the equity incentive plan granted to employees by the Group for stock options, the Group shallnot conduct any accounting treatment on the day of awarding.b. Accounting Treatment within the Waiting PeriodIf the equity-settled share-based payment is exchanged for employee-supplied services, and it canonly be executed or unlocked when services are completed during the waiting period or when therequired performance conditions are met, on each balance sheet date within the waiting period,based on the best estimate of the number of the executable or unlocking equity instruments,services obtained during this period shall be included in relevant costs or expenses according tothe fair value on the day when such equity instruments are awarded to the employees, andcorresponding capital reserves shall also be adjusted. For equity incentive plans that have beenrevoked due to the failure in meeting corresponding vesting conditions within the waiting period,the Group shall write back various expenses related to the share-based payment previouslyrecognized.Restricted shares issued by the Group shall participate in profit distribution and the part belongingto cash dividends can be revoked. For the holders of future restricted stocks that are expected to beunlocked, the Group’s cash dividends allocated to holders of restricted stocks shall be treated asprofit distributions. For those who are expected not to unlock restricted stocks in the future, theGroup’s cash dividends allocated to holders of restricted stocks shall be applied to offset relatedliabilities. If any subsequent information indicates that the number of restricted stocks that cannotbe unlocked is different from the previous estimate, it shall be treated as a change in accountingestimates.c. Accounting Treatment on the day of execution or unlockingWhen restricted stocks are regarded as the equity instrument for share-based payment, the Groupshall repurchase and cancel the stocks that have not met relevant restricted stocks unlocking
requirements. When the treasury stocks are canceled, the capital stock shall be reduced based onthe total par value of the canceled stocks, and portion of the costs of treasury stocks exceeding thetotal par value shall be applied to respectively offset the capital reserve (stock premium), theearned surplus and the undistributed profit; if the costs of treasury stocks are less than the total parvalue, corresponding capital reserve (stock premium) shall increase for the portion below the totalpar value. When the treasury stocks are transferred, the capital reserve (stock premium) shallaccordingly increase for the portion of the transfer income higher than the costs of treasury shares;the portion below the costs of treasury stocks shall be respectively applied to write down thecapital reserve (stock premium), surplus reserves, and undistributed profits. For stocks that are notrequired to be repurchased and meet relevant restrictive stock unlocking conditions, the Groupshall write down corresponding liabilities according to the carrying value of the liabilitiescorresponding to the unlocked shares, and write down the treasury stocks according to the carryingvalue of the treasury stocks corresponding to the unlocked shares. If there is any difference, thecapital reserve (stock premium) shall be adjusted.When stock options are regarded as the equity instrument for share-based payment, the Groupshall include that in the shareholders’ equity based on the subscription money paid by theemployees while executing their rights. Meanwhile, the capital reserve recognized within thewaiting period shall be transferred into the stock premium.29. Lease(1) Accounting treatments for operating leasea. Rent-in Assets under operating leaseThe rent expenses of the rent-in assets under operating lease shall be recognized as relevant assetscosts or expenses by using the straight-line method within the lease term.b. Rent-out Assets under operating leaseFor the rent-out fixed assets under operating lease other than the trading real estate (See Note III.15), corresponding depreciation and corresponding impairment provisions shall be respectivelycalculated and withdrawn according to applicable depreciation policies stated in Note III. 16(2)and applicable accounting policies stated in Note III. 23. The rental income under operating leaseshall be recognized as Earnings by using the straight-line method within the lease term. The initialdirect expenses of larger amount resulting from the rent-out assets under operating lease shall becapitalized, and included in current profits or losses by stages within the lease term by adoptingthe same basis prevailing in recognizing the rental income; if the amount is smaller, they shall bedirectly included in current profits or losses.(2) Accounting treatments for financial leasea．Rent-in assets under financial lease: Rented assets under financial assets: On the leasecommencement date, the Company shall regard the lower value between the fair value of theleasing assets and the current value of the minimum lease payment as the entry value of the rentedassets, the minimum lease payment the entry value of the long-term accounts payable, and thedifference the unrecognized financing expenses.

① The increases in other capital reserves in the Current Period primarily consisted of the share-based paymentswith equity instruments attributable to the parent company in the implementation of share option and restrictedshare incentives (see item XI in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements herein), and the deferred incometax assets on the amount by which the deductible amount in the exercise of share options under the equity incentiveplan exceeded the recognized costs during the pending period being directly charged to other capital reserves.② The decreases in other capital reserves in the Current Period were primarily incurred by the reclassification intoshare premium due to the exercise of incentive share options and the unlocking of restricted shares.

(II) Risk Analysis and Risk Management of Financial Instruments
In various daily activities, the Group may cope with various risks related to financial instruments, including Credit Risk, LiquidityRisk, Interest Rate Risk, Foreign Exchange Risk and Price Risk.The Group’s goal in risk management is to achieve a proper balance between risk and return, and strive to reduce the adverse impactof any financial instrument risk on the company’s operations. Based on this risk management objective, the Group has establishedrelevant risk management policies to identify and analyze the company’s risks, appropriately set corresponding acceptable risk levelsand established the internal control procedures to monitor the Group’s risk level. In addition, the Group will regularly review theserisk management policies and related internal control system to adapt to changes in market conditions or the company’s operatingactivities, and the Group’s internal audit department will regularly or randomly check whether the implementation of the internalcontrol system complies with relevant risk management policies.
(1) Credit Risk
The Group’s monetary capital other than cash is mainly deposited in financial institutions with good credit. The managementbelieves that there is no significant credit risk and it is expected that no losses will be caused to the company due to default by theother party.In terms of accounts receivable, the credit risk of such financial assets is mainly caused by the default of the counter-party, but theGroup only trades with the well-recognized third parties of good reputation. In accordance with the Group's sales policy, all
customers who require transactions to be conducted in the form of credit are subject to corresponding credit reviews. In order tomonitor the Group’s credit risk, the Group analyzes and classifies the customers’ arrears based on various factors including aging,maturity date and overdue days. As of 31 December 2018, the Group classified the accounts receivable based on risks and calculatedand withdrew corresponding provisions for impairment.
(2) Liquidity Risk
The Group has established the internal control system related to cash management, regularly formulated rolling budgets for funds,carried out the real-time monitoring of short-term and long-term working capital requirement, and maintained the balance betweenthe continuity and flexibility of financing by properly utilizing bank loans, business credit and other channels.As of 31 December 2018, the aging of the Group’s financial instruments was mainly within one year, and main products were feedsthat were sold well. Therefore, there’s no liquidity risk.
(3) Interest Rate Risk
The risk of changes in market interest rates faced by the Group during this year was mainly attributable to the Group’s LC financingborrowings with floating interest rates. As the Group continued to monitor the level of interest rates in the market and made timelyadjustments based on the latest market conditions, it reduced relevant risks arising from fluctuations in the interest rate.The Group’s interest-bearing debts under the floating rate contract and fixed rate contract are shown as follows:
| Item | Nature | 31 December 2018 | 31 December 2017 |
| Floating rate contracts | Short-term | 677,680,482.73 | - |
| Floating rate contracts | Long-term | 171,580,000.00 | - |
| Fixed rate contracts | Short-term | 2,038,274,384.96 | 2,303,898,763.70 |
| Fixed rate contracts | Long-term | 1,671,330,000.00 | - |
| Total | —— | 4,558,864,867.69 | 2,303,898,763.70 |
Since the interest of the Group’s interest-bearing debts was calculated based on the fixed interest rate, the impact of interest ratefluctuations on the company’s production and operations was mitigated.
(4) Exchange Rate Risk
Exchange rate risk arises from financial instruments that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. The rawmaterials purchased and imported by the Group have achieved a certain scale, and the transaction amount of subsidiaries set up bythe Group overseas with other currencies other than RMB as the bookkeeping currency has also increased. Therefore, fluctuations inRMB exchange rate have exerted certain impact on the company’s business operations. As for the expected exchange rate risk, the
company’s management has adopted proactive preventive measures including the favorable settlement method to control such riskwithin an acceptable range. Through conducting corresponding future foreign exchange settlement business and foreign exchangeoption portfolio business with banks, the company has successfully mitigated the impact of the foreign exchange rate fluctuations onthe company’s business operation.As of 31 December 2018, the Company’s foreign currency monetary items were mainly US dollars, Vietnamese dong, rupee, andringgit financial assets and financial liabilities (See Notes V. 59. Foreign Currency Monetary Items for details). As other currenciesare not frequently applied and the involved amount is relatively smaller, their exchange rate changes will not have a significantimpact on the Company's operating activities.
(5) Price Risk
Price risk refers to the risk caused by changes in the price of derivatives or changes in value due to changes in the prices ofunderlying assets. The Company upholds the basic principle of serving spot goods -- the spot procurement program, and regards riskcontrol as the core principle. Meanwhile, it will adopt one or more than one arbitrage tool for hedging to avoid the commodity pricerisk and credit risk etc., and changes in the fair value or cash flow of the arbitrage tool are expected to offset all or part of the changesin the fair value or cash flow of the hedged item, in which way, the impact of price fluctuations in raw materials and commodities onproduction and operations can thus be mitigated.
