THE LISTING The Shares of the Company were successfully listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange on January 15, 2021. The Listing was a recognition for the Group’s past efforts in performance growth and an important milestone in the Group’s history. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS Our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020 amounted to approximately RMB952.4 million, representing an increase of 24.5% from approximately RMB765.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2019; our gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2020 amounted to approximately RMB259.8 million, representing an increase of 141.4% from approximately RMB107.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019; our profit for the year ended December 31, 2020 amounted to approximately RMB18.2 million, representing a decrease of 63.9% from approximately RMB50.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019; our adjusted net profit* for the year ended December 31, 2020 amounted to approximately RMB130.9 million, representing an increase of 100.1% from approximately RMB65.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019; our net assets as of December 31, 2020 amounted to approximately RMB224.6 million, representing an increase of 15.5% from approximately RMB194.5 million as of December 31, 2019. BUSINESS REVIEW 2020 was a successful year for the Group. We kept on exploring our platform business model and expanding the industrial chain resources. Benefiting from our close cooperation with online video platforms, the implementation of our business development strategies of “self-produced drama series as the core, development of made-to-order drama series as the focus” has achieved sound outcomes, resulting in significant increase in our revenue. We broadcast a total of 12 drama series in 2020, among which, self-produced drama series including The Love Lasts Two Minds (兩世歡), Inside Man (局中人) and Unbending Will (石頭開花) achieved outstanding performance in terms of market reputation and results contribution. Moreover, we delivered Customer First (獵心者) and Marry Me (三嫁惹君心) to iQIYI and Dating In The Kitchen (我,喜歡你) to Tencent, respectively, all of which are our made-to-order drama series. We further built up our IP reserve in 2020 to satisfy the increasing demand for drama series development and production. As of December 31, 2020, in addition to our drama series that had been broadcast and to be broadcast, we had reserved in aggregate 34 IPs that could be developed into films and dramas, consisting of seven original screenplays based on our own initial ideas and 27 adapted screenplays based on licensed IPs. In March 2020, we entered into an IP co- development agreement with Booky Pictures (博集影業), an affiliate of CS-Booky (博集天卷), one of the top publishing companies in China, pursuant to which we and Booky Pictures will jointly invest in, develop and produce the drama series to be developed from IP, Two Capitals (兩京十五日), a full-length history novel written by Mr. Ma Boyong (馬伯庸), and share half of the net licensing fees. In June 2020, we acquired Nova Film, which focuses on visual effects and virtual photography as well as the research and development of advanced filming and production technologies of films. * We define adjusted net profit as profit for the year adjusted by adding back changes in fair value of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, equity-settled share award expense and/or listing expenses incurred during the respective years. 4 STRAWBEAR ENTERTAINMENT GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Chairman’s Statement BUSINESS REVIEW (CONT’D) We believe that our platform business model, our close cooperative relationship with online video platforms and abundant IP reserve could bring us continuous and stable drivers for development, enabling us to consolidate our leading position in the industry amidst fierce and complex market competition. OUTLOOK We believe that the market development of the cultural and entertainment industry in China will have a bright prospect with enormous potential under the background of new economic development and an era of culture output. Looking forward, we will continue to adapt to the circumstances with appropriate measures, and take a proactive approach to grasp the opportunities from market development and changes. While continuously deepening our platform business model, we attempt to develop and arrange for innovative new business, and unleash the value of the entire industry chain across the cultural and entertainment industry to extend our business in a timely manner, so as to further complement our overall layout in different verticals of the cultural and entertainment industry. Our development initiatives include: – Deepen our platform business model and foster stable organic growth: We will further strengthen our service capability for “comprehensive middle platform” under our platform business model to enhance the efficiency of excellent content creators and content purchasers. We will optimize a series of standardized production management process from project assessment to quality control, improve our own content production ability and brand influence, and enhance our cohesion with excellent industry players by breaking barriers in multiple aspects and segments in the content ecosystem. These will help to gather quality contents for effective development and industrial production, which will in turn further improve our income scale and profitability and achieve stable organic growth. – Expand our layout of innovative new business in the cultural and entertainment industry and unleash the value of the entire industry chain to extend our business in a timely manner: Leveraging our strength of scale in quality content development and production, we will further explore opportunities arising from content innovation and develop new business in a timely manner to realize diversified monetization opportunities. For example, we will expand content segments, tap into overseas markets and 2C content markets such as online movies and revenue- sharing dramas and provide agency service for artists. In this regard, we have established joint ventures such as Xingyu Yinyue and Beijing Honeybear with excellent agency teams to march into the artists agency market, thus improving the commercial monetization ability of signed artists. – Actively promote external growth through pursuing extensive external cooperation and quality industry resource integration, leveraging our position as a scarce integration platform in the market: As our team possesses comprehensive integration capabilities, we will proactively seek for high-quality partners that match
