LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND COMPLIANCE

We have been involved in legal proceedings or disputes from time to time in the ordinary course of business, such as contract disputes with our customers, suppliers or disputes with other third parties at properties under our management. As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were no litigation or arbitration proceedings or administrative proceedings pending against us or any of our Directors which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations. As at 31 December 2020, we made provision of RMB933,600 for liabilities related to claims by suppliers and employees against us. Our Directors believe that such provision is adequate. As at the Latest Practicable Date, we were involved in a litigation in relation to Chongqing Xintianyuan which rendered certain of our GFA under management as at the Latest Practicable Date in dispute. Please refer to the section headed “Business — Legal Proceedings and Compliance — Legal Proceedings — Xintianyuan Litigation”.

During the Track Record Period, some of our PRC subsidiaries and branches failed to register for and/or make full contribution to the social insurance and housing provident funds for some of our employees as required under PRC law. We have made provisions for our shortfall of contribution to social insurance and housing provident funds in the amount of RMB2.5 million, RMB2.3 million and RMB2.1 million for the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. We have implemented internal policies and procedures for the prevention of future non-compliance incidents of similar nature.

EFFECT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business Operations

The COVID-19 pandemic had a certain level of short term impact on the property management industry, mainly in relation to costs and management. In particular, our following services have experienced certain short-term impact as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

• Property management services. To comply with government regulations and measures to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, we incurred additional medical and sterilisation material costs in 2020. In 2020, we did not experience any significant difficulty in collecting management fee.

• Sales centre management services. Certain of the sales offices and show flats we managed suspended operations. In 2020, three projects were delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic while we did not record any significant loss due to such delay as we also postponed our personnel deployment accordingly. These projects have been delivered in 2020.

• Common area value-added services. During the COVID-19 pandemic, our ability to rent out community spaces was negatively affected.

• Commercial operational services. The COVID-19 pandemic has a relatively direct impact on the commercial properties operated by us from the aspects such as tenant sourcing, commercial operational service fee collection rate and whether the commercial property is allowed to open.

Our Contingency Plan and Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have adopted the following hygiene and precautionary measures across the properties under our management since late January 2020.

• Communications with the relevant government authorities. We have been closely monitoring and following the latest regulatory measures on combatting the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of measuring the body temperature of residents, visitors and our employees, and timely reporting potential issues to the relevant authorities.

• Activity suspension. Where necessary, we may suspend various playgrounds and recreation centres and other facilities under our management, and cancelled various community cultural events to reduce gathering of people.

• Disinfection. We spray disinfectants in public facilities, building corridors, elevators and other public spaces under our management.

• Garbage disposal. We designate specialised collection and disposal sites for used masks and other potentially hazardous materials.

• Property owner education. We actively inform property owners through WeChat groups and community posters regarding the latest policies and measures on the COVID-19 pandemic as well as our plans as a property management service providers.

Please refer to the section headed “Business—Effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic” for further information.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND NO MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE

RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY

Substantially all of our revenue during the Track Record Period from general property management services and commercial operational services were generated from properties developed and/or owned by Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures, over which we do not have control.

During the Track Record Period, substantially all of our revenue was generated from property management services and commercial operational services in relation to properties developed by Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, revenue generated from our provision of general property management services to properties developed by Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures, accounted for 99.5%, 99.5% and 99.6%, respectively, of our revenue generated from our provision of general property management services, and revenue generated from our provision of commercial operational services to the commercial properties developed by Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures, accounted for 99.2%, 100.0% and 100.0%, respectively, of our revenue generated from our provision of commercial operational services.

As we do not have control over Ronghui Group’ business strategy, nor the macroeconomic or other factors that affect their business operations, any adverse development in the business, operations, financial condition or prospects of Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures, its ability to realise their development plans on time or at all or its ability to develop new properties may affect our ability to procure new property management service agreements and commercial operational service agreements.

In addition, we cannot assure you that Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures will engage us as their property management service provider for properties they develop, particularly because the appointment of property management companies is generally subject to a tender process under PRC laws. In addition, we cannot assure you that all of our property management service agreements and commercial operational service agreements with Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures will be renewed successfully upon their expiration on commercially acceptable terms or at all. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in procuring service contracts from alternative sources to make up for the shortfall in a timely manner or on favourable terms. Though we plan to expand our business by seeking cooperation with the Independent Third Parties, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in doing so or be able to enter into such co-operation on commercially favourable terms. Should any of these events occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

–28– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Our business strategies are subject to uncertainties and risks and our future growth may therefore not materialise as planned.

We seek to continue expanding our business through increasing our contracted GFA and the number of properties we are contracted to manage in existing and new markets, including properties developed by Ronghui Group, joint ventures and associates of Ronghui Group and the Independent Third Parties. Please refer to the section headed “Business—Our Strategies” in this document for details. As at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, our aggregated contracted GFA under property management service segment amounted to approximately 7.5 million sq.m., 7.9 million sq.m., and 8.3 million sq.m., respectively. During the same period, our aggregate contracted GFA under commercial operational service segment amounted to approximately 0.3 million sq.m., 0.3 million sq.m., and 0.3 million sq.m., respectively. We base our expansion plans on our assessment of market prospects. We cannot assure you that our assessment will prove to be correct or that we can grow our business as planned. Our expansion plans may be affected by a number of factors, most of which are beyond our control. Such factors include:

• changes in the PRC’s economic conditions in general, the real estate industry, and the property management market in particular;

• changes in disposable personal income, level of consumer spending, consumer confidence and fluctuations in seasonal spending in the PRC;

• changes in applicable laws, government regulations or policies;

• changes in the supply of and demand for property management services and commercial operational services;

• our ability to generate sufficient liquidity internally and obtain external financing;

• our ability to recruit, retain and train competent employees;

• our ability to select and work with suitable subcontractors and suppliers;

• our ability to understand the needs of property developers, residents or tenants in the residential properties where we provide property management services or property developers or tenants in the commercial properties where we provide commercial operational services;

• our ability to diversify our services offering and to optimise our business mix;

• our ability to adapt to new markets where we have no prior experience and in particular, whether we can adapt to the administrative, regulatory and tax environments in such markets;

• our ability to solidify our market position in existing market and our ability to leverage our brand names and to compete successfully in new markets, particularly against the incumbent players in such markets who might have more resources and experience than we do;

–29– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

• our ability to maintain effective information technology systems to support our business and development plans; and

• our ability to improve our administrative, technical, operational and financial infrastructure.

Since our business strategies are subject to uncertainties and risks, we cannot assure you that our future growth will materialise. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects could be materially and adversely affected if our future plans fail to achieve positive results.

We may fail to secure new or renew our existing property management service agreements and commercial operational service agreements on favourable terms, or at all.

We believe that our ability to expand our portfolio of property management service agreements and commercial operational services agreements is crucial to our sustainable growth. During the Track Record Period, we procured new or renewed existing property management service agreements and commercial operational service agreements through participating in tenders or through direct negotiations with the property developers or property owners’ association. The selection of a property management service provider or a commercial operational service provider by property developers or property owners’ association depends on a number of factors, including but not limited to the quality of services, the level of pricing, reputation and the operating history of the property management service provider. We cannot assure you that we will be able to procure new or renew existing property management service agreements and commercial operational service agreements on favourable terms, or at all. Our efforts may be hindered by factors beyond our control, which may include, among others, changes in general economic conditions, evolving government regulations as well as supply and demand dynamics within the property management service and commercial operational service market. In addition, the termination and non-renewal of property management service agreements and commercial operational service agreements could potentially be detrimental to our reputation and diminish our competitiveness within the market. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, we had two, three and two expired general property management agreements, respectively, and among which we renewed one, two and two agreements, respectively. During the Track Record Period, we did not renew two property service agreements for residential properties after their expiration, which was mainly due to the fact that management fees we proposed for providing the required level of services were not accepted by the respective property owners’ associations, or as a result of the delivery of the project to government. There is no guarantee that we would be able to find other business opportunities and enter into alternative property management service agreements or commercial operational service agreements on favourable terms, or at all. During the Track Record Period, we did not experience any failure to renew our property management service agreements and commercial operational service agreements as a result of our default.

–30– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Our future acquisitions or investments may not be successful and we may experience increased financial burden in respect of the acquisitions and investments and face difficulties in integrating acquired operations with our existing operation.

We plan to expand our business through acquisitions or investments, and plan to evaluate opportunities to acquire or invest other property management companies, commercial service providers and other businesses that are complementary to our existing businesses and integrate their operations into ours. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to identify suitable opportunities. Even if we manage to identify suitable opportunities, we may not be able to complete the acquisitions or investments on terms favourable or acceptable to us, in a timely manner, or at all. The inability to identify suitable acquisition targets or to complete acquisitions could materially and adversely affect our competitiveness and growth prospects.

Acquisitions or investments, even if completed, will involve uncertainties and risks, including, without limitation:

• potential ongoing financial obligations, litigations or claims or disputes and unforeseen or hidden legal, regulatory, financial or other liabilities;

• inability to apply our business model or standardised business processes on the acquisition targets;

• failure to achieve the intended objectives, synergy benefits or revenue-enhancing opportunities;

• assumption of debt and liabilities of the acquired companies, some of which may not have been revealed during the due diligence process; and

• diversion of resources and management attention.

Approximately [REDACTED]%, or HK$[REDACTED], of the [REDACTED] received by our Company from the [REDACTED] is expected to be used to pursue selective strategic investment and acquisition opportunities and further develop strategic alliances. Please refer to the section headed “Future Plans and [REDACTED]” in this document. If we fail to identify suitable acquisition opportunities or our future acquisition transactions fail to consummate for other reasons which may be beyond our control, our [REDACTED] from the [REDACTED] may not be effectively used.

Moreover, we may require additional cash resources to finance our continued growth or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. To the extent that our funding requirements exceed our financial resources, we will be required to seek additional financing or to defer planned expenditures. Interest rate increases or other unfavourable changes in the financial markets may increase our cost of borrowing or adversely affect our ability to access sources of liquidity upon which we may rely to finance our operations and satisfy our obligations as they become due. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain sufficient financing on favourable terms, or at all, to fund our future expansion. Furthermore, if we raise additional funds through equity or equity-linked financings, your equity interest in our Company may be diluted. Alternatively, if we raise additional funds by

–31– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS incurring debt obligations, we may be subject to various covenants under the relevant debt instruments that may, among other things, restrict our ability and flexibility to operate our business, pay dividends or obtain additional financing. Servicing such debt obligations could also be burdensome to our operations. If we fail to service such debt obligations or are unable to comply with any of these covenants, we could be in default under such debt obligations and our liquidity and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Furthermore, we may face difficulties in, and additional risks of, integrating acquired operations with our existing business. The difficulties and risks will be affected by different factors, including, among others, the complexity and size of the acquired business. Particularly, we may face the difficulties in retaining the acquired company’s personnel and integrating the existing workforce with that of the acquired companies. Such difficulties could disrupt our ongoing business, distract the attention of our management and employees or increase our expenses. The prior dealings of the acquired company may have given rise to situations which, although unknown or deemed immaterial during due diligence could be exposed post- acquisition and cause damage to our brand. We may also face the risks of operating in new markets with local regulations unfamiliar to us and incur additional hidden costs associated with the acquisition. Any of these difficulties or risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Acquisitions may result in goodwill recorded in our combined financial statements. If we fail to achieve our desired objectives with respect to our acquisitions, we may need to record impairment losses on our goodwill, which may materially and adversely reduce our assets and impact our profitability that would, in turn, have an adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Our strategic plan to further diversify and expand our services may not succeed as planned in the future.

We have diversified our services by providing various value-added services to meet the evolving needs of our customers, primarily including property owners, residents, tenants and property developers. However, with limited operating history and experience in certain regions, we may face unknown risks, rising expenses and fierce competition in the market. We have encountered and expect to continue to encounter risks and difficulties frequently experienced in relation to new service offerings, and those risks and difficulties may be heightened in a rapidly evolving market. Those risks and difficulties may affect our ability to:

• attract and retain customers and qualified employees;

• develop and maintain close cooperation with strategic partners to offer certain services;

• maintain effective control of our development as well as operating costs and expenses;

• develop and maintain internal personnel, systems, controls and procedures to comply with the extensive regulatory requirements applicable to the relevant industries;

–32– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

• cater for various consumer preferences, or anticipate product or service trends that will appeal to existing or potential customers;

• respond to competitive market conditions and changes in industry environments; or

• respond to changes in regulatory environment.

Our failure to achieve any of the above may jeopardise our ability to offer newly introduced value-added services, as well as other new services we plan to launch. We are dedicated to satisfying our customers’ needs by further strengthening our capabilities to provide and diversify our value-added services. Please refer to the section headed “Business—Our Strategies—Improve our service quality and operational efficiency through upgrades and optimisation of our information management systems and platforms” in this document. Launching new services and products, changing our service models or entering into new markets may also require substantial time, resources and capital. We may have limited ability to leverage on our brand name in the industries related to our value-added services in the way that we have done so in the property management industry, which could hinder our results of operations in the new market.

Furthermore, we cannot assure you that our investment in our value-added services can be recouped in a timely manner, or at all, or our investment return would be higher than that of other comparable companies. Our development of and investment in diversified services may be subject to PRC laws and regulations governing licence approval and renewal. Please refer to the section headed “Regulatory Overview” in this document. We cannot assure you that we can obtain or renew our licence on time, if at all. We cannot assure you that our future strategic development plan, which is based upon our forward-looking assessment of market prospects and customer preferences, will always turn out to be successful. A number of factors beyond our control may also affect our plan for the development of diversified services, including changes in the PRC’s economic conditions in general, government policies and regulations on relevant industries, and changes in supply and demand for our services. Any of the foregoing could adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations.

All of our operations of property management services and commercial operational services are concentrated in Chongqing, Jinan and Fuzhou, and our business could be adversely affected in the event of any adverse development in government policies or economic and business environment in these regions.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, all of our property management services and commercial operational services were concentrated in Chongqing, Jinan and Fuzhou. As at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, we managed an aggregate GFA of approximately 5.7 million sq.m., 6.0 million sq.m. and 6.4 million sq.m., respectively, of properties under property management service segment mainly in Chongqing, Jinan and Fuzhou collectively. Over the same period, we had an aggregate contracted GFA of approximately 0.3 million sq.m., 0.3 million sq.m. and 0.3 million sq.m., respectively, of properties under commercial operational service segment mainly in Chongqing, Jinan and Fuzhou collectively. Given such concentration, any material adverse social, economic or political development in or any natural disaster or epidemic affecting

–33– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Chongqing, Jinan or Fuzhou could materially and adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations.

Any financial difficulties faced by Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures may have material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operation and prospects

During the Track Record Period, a large portion of our revenue from property management services was generated from services provided in relation to properties developed by Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures. In this relation, any adverse development in the business, financial condition or prospects of Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures, or any financial difficulties faced by Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures or its ability to develop and complete new properties may negatively affect our procurement of new service contracts for property management services and value-added services to non-property owners, which may in turn have a negative impact on our business, financial condition, results of operation and prospects.

Moreover, the real estate industry, in which Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures operates, is heavily regulated by the PRC Government. Please refer to the section headed “Risk Factors—We are subject to the regulatory environment and measures affecting the PRC property management and real estate industries” in this document. The PRC government may promulgate new initiatives or implement more stringent measures to regulate the real estate industry in the future, such as setting caps on certain debt ratios, with a view to controlling the increase of the debt levels in the real estate sector. Such potential initiatives or measures, once in place, may further limit property developers’ access to capital and slow down the overall growth of the real estate sector and revenue expansion of property developers, including Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures, which may in turn negatively impact the growth of the property management industry and the supply of new properties for management by property management companies like us. In the event that Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures fails to obtain sufficient financing and such financial difficulties result in delays in completion of its projects, the growth of our GFA under management will be affected, which in turn will adversely affect the growth of our property management services.

We may encounter difficulties in collecting our property management services and commercial operational service fees, which could lead to impairment losses or write off of our trade receivables.

We may encounter difficulties when collecting our property management fees in communities, or service fees where a tenant has experienced any difficulties in continuing operations for any other factors. Delays in receiving such fees would adversely affect our cash flow position and our ability to meet our working capital requirements. Even though we seek to collect overdue service fees through a number of collection measures, we cannot assure you that such measures will be effective or enable us to accurately predict our future collection rate.

–34– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Our provision for impairment of trade receivables amounted to RMB5.7 million, RMB1.9 million and RMB2.5 million as at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. Pursuant to the terms of our property management service agreements, property owners are typically required to pay their property management fee on a monthly basis. However, certain property owners do not pay their property management fees in accordance with the terms of the relevant property management service contracts and tend to pay such fees in one or more instalments during or towards the end of a year.

Although our management’s estimates and the related assumptions were made in accordance with information available to us, such estimates or assumptions may need to be adjusted if new information becomes known. Please refer to the section headed “Financial Information—Significant Accounting Policies, Estimates and Judgements—Provision for impairment of trade and other receivables” in this document for details. In the event that actual recoverability is lower than expected, or that our past allowance for impairment of trade receivables becomes insufficient in light of any new information, we may need to provide for an additional allowance for impairment of trade receivables or write off of our trade receivables, which could in turn materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may experience fluctuations in our labour and subcontracting costs.

In 2018, 2019, and 2020, our staff costs recognised in cost of sales accounted for 63.7%, 64.5% and 64.0% of our total cost of sales, respectively. We also engage third-party subcontractors mainly to provide cleaning, gardening, garbage disposal and repair and maintenance services for the properties under our management. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, our subcontracting costs accounted for 17.7%, 19.5% and 20.9% of our total cost of sales, respectively. We believe that controlling and reducing our staff and subcontracting costs are essential to maintaining and improving our profit margins. However, we face pressure from rising staff and subcontracting costs due to various contributing factors, including but not limited to:

• Increase in minimum wage — The minimum wage in regions we operate has increased in recent years, directly affecting our staff costs as well as the fees we pay to our third-party subcontractors.

• Inflation and general economic conditions — as a result of inflation, improvement of economic conditions, increase in GDP per capita, the general level of remuneration have increased. In view of the competition to recruit quality staff, we may have to offer more competitive package to attract talents.

• Increase in headcount — As we expand our operations, the headcount of our residential property and commercial operational management staff, sales and marketing staff and administrative staff and/or the usage of third-party subcontractors will continue to grow. We will also need to retain and continuously recruit qualified employees to meet our growing demand for talent, which will further increase our total headcount. The increase in headcount will also increase our costs such as those related to salaries, training, social insurance and housing provident fund contributions and quality control measures.

–35– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

• Delay in implementing technological solutions, service standardisation and other measures to reduce our reliance on manual labour and cost of services — Usually there is a lapse between the time we begin commercial operational services or property management services for a particular property and the time we start implementing any of our measures to reduce our reliance on manual labour and cost of services. Before we carry out such measures, our ability to mitigate the impact of any increases in staff and subcontracting costs is limited.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to control our costs or improve our operational efficiency. If we fail to achieve this goal, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

We face certain risks in relation to the large-scale integrated properties.

According to CIA, large scale integrated property refers to a real estate project that contains residential properties as well as properties for commercial purposes with a GFA of construction of more than 500,000 sq.m. that has the integrated functions, such as residential and commercial consumption. As at 31 December 2020, we had three large-scale integrated properties with total GFA under management of 5.1 million sq.m., making up the large majority of our total GFA under management. As a special business combination, the large-scale integrated property has the characteristics of large scale, high density, and diversified property types. Although we typically separately participate in the tender process and enter into property management agreements with the property developers or property owners’ associations for different phases of the large-scale integrated properties, if our property management services agreements for any phase of the large-scale integrated properties are terminated or if we fail to renew such agreements, our reputation and our ability to obtain, perform or renew the property management agreements for other phases of the same large-scale integrated properties may be negatively affected. As a result, our business operations and financial performance could be materially and negatively affected.

We recorded revenue from gain on disposal of financial assets which was nonrecurring in nature

We recorded a non-recurring gain on disposal of financial assets amounting to nil, nil and RMB14.9 million for the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, as a result of our disposal of held-for-trading financial assets. For details, please refer to the section headed “Financial Information—Key Components of our Combined Statements of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income—Other Losses/Gains, net” in this document.

Income from gain on disposal of financial assets was non-recurring in nature. Going forward, we may not have financial assets available for sale. Even if we have financial assets available for sale, the selling price of such financial assets at the time of sale also depends on market conditions and our management’s judgement in their discretion which is subject to certain assumptions. If we fail to sell our financial assets at a fair value due to management’s judgement or changes in market conditions, we may suffer losses. Such losses could adversely affect our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

–36– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

We may be subject to losses and our profit margins may decrease if we fail to control our costs in rendering our property management services on a lump sum basis.

We generated all of our revenue from properties managed on a lump sum basis during the Track Record Period. On a lump sum basis, we charge property management fees at a predetermined fixed price per sq.m. per month, representing all-inclusive fees for the property management services provided. When total costs and expenses incurred exceed the amount of property management fees we receive, we bear the shortfall and may not charge additional fees to property developers, property owners or residents during the contract term. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, we incurred losses of RMB1.4 million, RMB1.8 million and RMB0.9 million, respectively, with respect to seven, six and three properties under our management, respectively. Such losses were primarily because the amount of property management fees we received was insufficient to cover the service costs incurred to offer quality property management services. Our revenue from property management services from such loss-making properties was approximately RMB17.5 million, RMB15.7 million and RMB9.3 million in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, representing 8.8%, 7.0% and 3.9% of our total revenue for the same periods, respectively.

To improve our profitability, we can either try to improve our fee rates when renewing service agreements, or control our costs and expenses through a series of cost-saving initiatives. However, our ability to mitigate losses through cost-saving initiatives, such as operation automation measures to reduce labour costs and energy-saving measures to reduce energy costs, may not be successful. Moreover, our cost-saving efforts may negatively affect the quality of our property management services, which in turn will reduce property owners’ willingness to pay us property management fees. We may be also subject to local regulations on price control and may require consent from property owner(s) which may restrict our ability to raise our fee rates. Therefore, we cannot assure you that we could successfully raise our fee rates; nor could we assure you that our cost-saving initiatives will achieve their intended results. Failure to raise our fee rates or implement cost-saving measures could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We face a wide range of competition and may fail to compete effectively and operate profitably.

According to CIA, the PRC property management industry is intensely competitive and highly fragmented. Please refer to the section headed”Industry Overview—the PRC Property Management Industry—Overview” in this document. We compete with other property management service providers and commercial operational service providers that operate on national, regional and local scales. They may have stronger capital resources, longer operating histories, better track records, greater brand or name recognition, greater expertise in regional and local markets and greater financial, technical, marketing and public relations resources than we do. They may also be better positioned than we are to compete for customers, financing, skilled management and labour resources, and devote more resources to the development, expansion, and promotion of their property management services and commercial operational services. In addition, property developers may establish their own in-house property management businesses or engage their affiliated service providers. These developments may reduce the availability of business opportunities and customers as there would be fewer property developers in the market who would be willing to refer business to us. Since our competitors may seek to emulate our business model, we may lose our competitive edge should

–37– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS we fail to continue improving and thereby distinguish ourselves from other service providers. Our customers may opt to work with our competitors upon the expiry of our existing service contracts as competitive pressures intensify, and we may be less likely to successfully obtain new service agreements.

In addition, our efforts to compete may compel us to reduce prices for our property management services and commercial operational services, while competitive pressures may force us to further enhance service quality, thereby increasing our cost of services. We cannot assure you that we will be able to pass additional costs to our customers. Failures to compete effectively may erode our profit margins and market share, which could in turn materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth potential.

We may not be able to accurately position the commercial properties under our management.

During the Track Record Period, we derive a portion of our revenue from commercial operational services business line, which accounted for approximately 17.2%, 16.7% and 15.8%, respectively, of our total revenue for the three years ended 31 December 2020. However, we may not be able to sustain the current growth of or further expand our commercial operational services, or maintain the gross margin of such revenue stream.

Our ability to derive revenue on a sustainable basis from our commercial operations and command a reasonable gross margin for such revenue stream will depend on our ability to accurately assess the positioning, market demand and competitive status of the properties that we provide commercial operational services to, a failure of which would in turn adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Certain anchor stores or other major tenants have significant impact on our ability to attract customers to commercial properties under our management.

Commercial properties, especially shopping centres and shopping streets, under our management are typically anchored by stores of recognised brands, supermarkets and cinemas. The operations of the commercial properties could be materially and adversely affected if these anchors or other major tenants suffer a decline in their business, fail to comply with their contractual obligations, such as timely payment of commercial operational services fees, or cease their operations.

Certain anchor stores and other large retailers may experience decreases in consumer traffic in their retail stores due to uncertainty and less-than-desirable levels of consumer confidence, increased competition from alternative retail options such as those accessible via the Internet and other forms of pressure on their business models. As pressure on these anchor stores and large retailers increases, their ability to maintain their stores and meet their obligations both to property owners and us and to their external lenders may be impaired and result in closures of their stores.

If any of the anchor or major tenant is to close its store at the commercial properties under our management, we may have difficulty and experience delay in sourcing new tenants, as well as in leasing spaces in areas adjacent to such vacant anchor store or large retailer. Additionally, anchor store or large retailer closures may result in decreased consumer traffic, which could

–38– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS lead to decreased sales at other stores. If the business of stores operating in commercial properties under our management were to decline significantly due to the closing of anchor stores or other large retailers, adverse economic conditions, or other reasons, tenants may be unable to pay the commercial property management fees or other expenses. In the event of any default by a tenant, we may not be able to fully recover, and/or may experience delays and costs in enforcing our rights as a service provider to recover amounts due to us under the terms of our agreements with such parties.

Rapid growth of the e-commerce business in China may have negative impact on the operation of physical stores in the commercial properties we manage, which may in turn affect our profitability.

As the e-commerce business in China has experienced rapid growth, the purchasing habits of the consumers may undergo significant changes. People may tend to shop online instead of visiting the physical stores which may result in decrease of consumer traffic and may negatively impact the business and financial condition of our tenants in the commercial properties under our management. In the event that the business and financial condition of these tenants are affected by the change in purchasing habits or preferences of the consumers, they may decrease their rental area or even cease to rent the stores. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our historical growth rates of revenue and profit, or remain profitable, if such adverse changes occur.

Expansion of our business may expose us to increased risks of non-compliance with the laws and regulations in new geographic markets and new services.

As we expand our operations into new geographic markets and diversify our service offerings, we expect to become subject to an increasing number of laws and regulations. In addition, as the size and scope of our operations increase, the difficulty of ensuring compliance with the applicable laws and regulations and the potential of being subject to penalties or fines for non-compliances may increase accordingly. If we fail to comply with the applicable laws and regulations, the competent authorities may impose penalties on us. The laws and regulations applicable to our business, whether national, provincial or local, may also evolve in ways that substantially increase our costs of compliance, and any non-compliance could result in significant financial penalties, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

Brand and reputation are our key assets, which will be affected by how we are perceived in the marketplace.

Brand and reputation and their attributes are our key assets. We provide property management services under the brand of RongHui Joy Life. Our ability to attract and retain customers is highly dependent upon the external perceptions of our level of service, trustworthiness, business practices, management, workplace culture, financial condition, our response to unexpected events and other subjective qualities. Negative perceptions or publicity regarding these matters, even if related to seemingly isolated incidents and whether or not factually correct, could erode trust and confidence and damage our reputation among existing and potential clients, which could make it difficult for us to attract new customers and maintain existing ones.

–39– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

We believe our continued success depends on our ability to preserve, grow and leverage the value of our brand and reputation. The protection of our brand, including related trademarks, may require the expenditure of significant financial and operational resources. Moreover, the steps we take to protect our brand may not adequately protect our rights or prevent third parties from infringing or misappropriating our trademarks. Even when we detect infringement or misappropriation of our trademarks, we may not be able to enforce all such trademarks. Any unauthorised use by third parties of our brand may adversely affect our brand. As we continue to expand our business, there is also a risk we may face claims of infringement or other alleged violations of third-party intellectual property rights, which may restrict us from leveraging our brand in a manner consistent with our business goals.

There could be from time to time negative publicity about us, our Shareholders and affiliates, our brand, management, vendors as well as products and services provided by us. Negative reviews on the properties managed by us, products and services provided by us, our business operations and management may appear in the form of Internet postings and other media sources from time to time and we cannot assure you that other types of negative publicity will not arise in the future. For example, if our services fail to satisfy our customers, our customers may disseminate negative opinions about our services through popular social media platforms. Our employees or agents may receive negative publicity relating to their on-the-job or off-the-job speech or conduct, which may reflect negatively on us. Partner vendors for our service may also be subject to negative publicity for quality of their products and services or other public relation incidents with respect to such vendors, which may adversely affect the sales of their products or services on us and indirectly affect our reputation. Given our close relationship with Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures from whose projects and properties we derive a large portion of our property management services revenue, negative publicity about Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures, its business, results of operations and financial condition could adversely affect our reputation, business and share price. Any such negative publicity, regardless of veracity, could materially and adversely affect our business, our reputation and the trading price of our Shares.

In addition, accidents may occur in the ordinary course of our business, and we may be exposed to media coverages as well as claims for injuries and fatality sustained by our employees, subcontractors, or unrelated third parties. Such occurrences may damage our reputation not only within the property management industry but also among the general public.

We are exposed to risks associated with third-party subcontractors to perform certain services to our customers.

During the Track Record Period, we delegated certain property management services, primarily including cleaning, gardening, garbage disposal and repair and maintenance services, to third-party subcontractors. In 2018, 2019, and 2020, subcontracting costs amounted to approximately RMB26.9 million, RMB32.5 million and RMB34.6 million, respectively, accounting for approximately 17.7%, 19.5% and 20.9% of our total cost of sales, respectively. We select our third-party subcontractors based on factors such as professional qualifications, industry reputation, service quality and price competitiveness. However, we cannot assure you that they will always perform or willing to fulfil their obligation in accordance with our expectations and we may not be able to monitor their services as directly and efficiently as with

–40– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS our own services. They may take actions contrary to our or our customers’ instructions or requests, or be unable or unwilling to fulfil their obligations. As a result, we may have disputes with our subcontractors, or may be held responsible for their actions, either of which could lead to damages to our reputation, additional expenses and business disruptions and potentially expose us to litigation and damage claims.

We cannot assure you that upon the expiration of our agreements with our current third-party subcontractors, we will be able to renew such agreements or find suitable replacements in a timely manner, on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

In addition, if our third-party subcontractors fail to maintain a stable team of qualified manual labour or do not have easy access to a stable supply of qualified manual labour or fails to perform their obligations properly or in a timely manner, the work process may be interrupted. Any interruption to the third-party subcontractors’ work process may potentially result in a breach of the contract between our customers and us. Any of such events could materially and adversely affect our service quality, our reputation, as well as our business, financial position and results of operations.

We are exposed to liabilities from disputes involving losses or damages incurred by services provided through our community value-added services and/or value-added services to non-property owners as well as other incidents in our business that may expose us to liability and reputational risk.

We may encounter different incidents during the course of our business which may materially and adversely affect our business operation. Claims may arise due to our employees’ or third-party subcontractors’ negligence or recklessness when providing community value-added services and/or value-added services to non-property owners. For instance, claims may be brought against us by purchasers, regulatory authorities or other third parties alleging, among others, that: (i) the quality of the services provided by or through us fail to conform to required service quality; (ii) advertisements made in common areas with respect to such services are false, deceptive, misleading, libellous, injurious to the public welfare otherwise offensive; (iii) such services are defective or injurious and may be harmful to others; and (iv) such marketing, communication or advertising infringe on the proprietary rights of other third parties. These occurrences could result in damage to, or destruction of, properties of the communities, or could result in personal injury or death, and could subject us to legal liability. We may be held liable for the personal injuries or property losses of our customers due to the foregoing incidents that may occur during the course of our business. Any of these events could materially harm our brand and reputation and marketability of such products or services, which may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operation and financial position.

We may be subject to fines for our failure to register for and/or contribute to social insurance and housing provident funds on behalf of some of our employees

During the Track Record Period, we failed to make adequate social insurance and housing provident fund contributions for some of our employees as required by the relevant PRC laws and regulations. Please refer to the section headed “Business—Legal Proceedings and Compliance—Historical Non-compliance Incident” in this document for details of our non-compliance in relation to social insurance and housing provident fund contributions.

There is no assurance that we will not be subject to penalties or fines imposed by the relevant PRC authority as a result of such non-compliance incident. We have made provisions for our shortfall of contribution to social insurance and housing provident funds in the amount of RMB2.5 million, RMB2.3 million and RMB2.1 million for the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. In the event that the relevant authority later strengthens the enforcement of the relevant laws and regulations on social insurance and housing provident fund in respect of the enterprises within its jurisdiction and accordingly require payment by enterprises of underpaid social insurance fund or housing provident fund and impose penalties, the amount of which may be significant, our Group’s business, financial condition and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

We may be involved in legal disputes from time to time, which may adversely affect our financial position, divert management attention and harm our reputation.

From time to time, we may be directly or indirectly involved in legal disputes with customers (including property owners’ association), employees, tenants, subcontractors, regulatory bodies or other third parties. These legal disputes may relate to, service quality, contractual warranties, employment, negligence and intellectual property. For example, tenants may bring claims against us for perceived failures (actual or otherwise) to perform in accordance with their expectations as to service quality. Our employees and subcontractors may also sue us for various reasons, including, among others, occupational injuries and employment related disputes. We are subject to risks associated with having limited control over the behaviour of employees, subcontractors and other third parties who may accidentally or intentionally harm the interests of our customers. As at 31 December 2020, we made provision of RMB933,600 for liabilities related to claims by suppliers and employees against us. Any claims, disputes and legal proceedings brought against us, with or without merit, could result in substantial costs and divert capital resources and management attention. We may suffer damage to our reputation regardless of whether we prevail, leading to material adverse effects on our business, financial position and brand value.

Certain of our GFA under management for property management services as at the Latest Practicable Date was in dispute

As at the Latest Practicable Date, we had GFA under management for property management services of 7.6 million sq.m., among which 0.4 million sq.m. was in dispute as a result of a litigation involving our non-wholly owned subsidiary, Chongqing Xintianyuan. Please refer to the section headed “Business—Legal Proceedings and Compliance—Legal Proceedings—Xintianyuan Litigation” in this document for further information. If we do not succeed in the Xintianyuan Litigation (as defined below), we may be required to cease to

RISK FACTORS provide property management services and collect property management fee in relation to the 0.4 million sq.m. GFA under management which was in dispute as at the Latest Practicable Date, which could have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial performance. Even if we succeed in the Xintianyuan Litigation, our relationship with the property owners’ association of the relevant property may be impaired which could still have a negative impact on our continuous management of the relevant property.

Damage to the common areas of our managed properties as a result of any natural disasters, intended or unintended actions of property owners or residents or other events may adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations.

The common areas of the properties we manage may suffer damage as a result of events beyond our control, including but not limited to natural disasters, accidents or intentional damage. According to the Measures for the Management of Special Maintenance of Residential Buildings《住宅專項維修資金管理辦法》 ( ), which was jointly issued by the Ministry of Construction and the MOF on 4 December 2007 and became effective on 1 February 2008, owners of residential properties are required to establish special maintenance funds which is used for maintenance, renewal, transformation of residential common parts, common facilities and equipment. Nevertheless, there is no guarantee that there will be sufficient sums in those special funds. Where the damage is caused by natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, typhoons, fires, accidents or intentional harms, the damage caused may be extensive. At times additional resources may have to be allocated to assist police and other governmental authorities in investigating criminal actions that may have been involved.

As the property management service provider, we may be viewed as responsible for restoring the common areas and assisting any investigative efforts. In the event that there is any shortfall in the special funds necessary to cover all the costs involved, we may have to compensate for the difference with our own resources first. We would need to collect the amount of the shortfall from the property owners later. To the extent that our attempts are unsuccessful, we may experience material adverse effects on our business, financial position and results of operations. Although PRC law mandates that property owners shall top-up the special fund once less than 30% of the initial amount of money remains, there is no guarantee that any refill plan proposed would be approved by property owners’ associations or the local housing authority. As we intend to continue growing our business, the likelihood of such occurrences may rise in proportion to any increases in the number of our managed properties. In addition, we are operating in Chongqing, Fujian Province and Shandong Province which are susceptible to earthquakes and in Fujian Province and Shandong Province which are susceptible to typhoons, and we may expand into other markets that are geographically located in areas susceptible to earthquakes or typhoons and thereby increase the chances of us being affected by these natural disasters and therefore materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our use of certain key information systems may be interrupted and our planned upgrades may not be successful.

Certain of our key information systems, including intelligent property management platform and commercial operational management platform, are developed and maintained by Independent Third Parties. If the service providers for our information systems are alleged for infringing other parties’ intellectual property rights and/or cease to provide maintenance services and/or fail to provide appropriate and quality maintenance services in a timely manner, our use of these key information systems may be interrupted and our business operations may be materially adversely affected.

We plan to upgrade our property management information system and commercial operational information system, primarily through (i) intelligent property management platform upgrade; (ii) intelligent community facilities management system upgrade; (iii) smart community service platform upgrade; and (iv) commercial operational management platform upgrade. Please refer to the section headed “Business—Our Strategies—Improve our service quality and operational efficiency through upgrades and optimisation of our information management systems and platforms” in this document for further details. We plan to migrate and integrate our management information system with our own system independently from the developer to be maintained by us. We cannot assure you that such migration will be successful. If not successful, there can be no assurance that the service provider engaged or to be engaged by us would carry out the information systems upgrades as planned or the functions we design can be materialised.

We may experience failures in or disruptions to our information technology systems.

We rely on our information technology systems to manage key operational functions including, among others, managing and monitoring daily business operations and settling payments with our customers. However, we cannot assure you that damages or interruptions caused by power outages, computer viruses, hardware and software failures, telecommunication failures, fires, natural disasters, security breaches, changes in regulatory environment and other similar occurrences relating to our information systems will not occur going forward. We may incur significant costs in restoring any damaged information technology systems. Failures in or disruptions to our information technology systems and loss or leakage of confidential information could cause transaction errors, processing inefficiencies and the loss of customers and sales. We may thus experience material adverse effects on our business and results of operations.

Failure to protect confidential information of our customers and our network against security breaches, any actual or perceived failure by us or third parties to comply with applicable data protection laws and regulations or privacy policies could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We collect, store and process personal and other sensitive data from our customers, such as addresses and phone numbers. Our security measures may be breached due to employee error, malfeasance, system errors or vulnerabilities, or otherwise. Outside parties may also attempt to fraudulently induce employees to disclose sensitive information in order to gain access to our data or our customers’ data. While we have taken steps to protect the confidential

–44– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS information that we have access to, our security measures could be breached. Because techniques used to sabotage or obtain unauthorised access to systems change frequently and generally are not recognised until they are launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. Any accidental or willful security breaches or other unauthorised access to our platforms could cause confidential customer information to be stolen and used for unlawful purposes. Security breaches or unauthorised access to confidential information could also expose us to liability related to the loss of the information, time-consuming and expensive litigation and negative publicity.

We launched Xiaohui Dangjia App as an integrated one-stop online service platform for property owners and residents of our managed properties. During the course of our business operations and through Xiaohui Dangjia, we collect data from our customers. For example, we receive, process and store personal information of property owners and residents when they create an online account and make use of the services available on Xiaohui Dangjia. Although we have implemented a series of measures to ensure the security of our customers’ data, our current security measures may still not be sufficient. Privacy and data protection laws for mobile platforms are evolving rapidly. Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with the relevant privacy and data protection laws, rules and regulations, our data protection measures or any compromise in security resulting in unauthorised access, release or transfer of personally identifiable information or data on Xiaohui Dangjia may result in enforcement actions, litigations, or public sanctions against us. Any loss of trust or confidence in us by property owners and residents of our managed properties may also deter them from using Xiaohui Dangjia and lead to a long-term detrimental effect on our business and reputation.

Under the Cyber Security Law of the People’s Republic of China《中華人民共和國網絡安 ( 全法》) (the “Cyber Security Law”), network operators are generally obligated to protect their networks against disruption, damage or unauthorised access, and to prevent data leakage, theft or tampering. In addition, they will also be subject to specific rules depending on their classification under the multi-level network security protection scheme. With respect to personal information protection, the Cyber Security Law requires network operators not to disclose, tamper with or damage personal information collected or generated in the business operation, and they are obligated to delete unlawfully collected information and to amend incorrect information. In addition, network operators may not collect, use or provide personal information to others without consent. Moreover, the Provisions on Protection of Personal Information of Telecommunication and Internet Users《電信和互聯網用戶個人信息保護規定》 ( )is the specialised regulation governing the collection and use of personal information of users in the provision of telecommunication service and Internet information services. These laws and regulations are relatively new and evolving, and their interpretation and enforcement involve significant uncertainties. The evolving PRC regulations regarding (i) data collection, usage and transfer; and (ii) cyber security may lead to future restrictions and the establishment of new regulatory agencies, and we may bear more legal responsibilities and compliance costs, which may have an adverse effect on our prospects. If security measures are breached because of third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, or if design flaws in our technology infrastructure are exposed and exploited, our reputation and brands could be severely damaged and we could incur significant liability, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We are exposed to risks associated with the use of third-party online payment platforms.

We accept payments via various methods, including but not limited to online payments through third-party platforms. Transactions conducted through third-party platforms involve the transmission of confidential information such as credit card numbers, personal information and billing addresses over public networks. In recent years, the use of third-party platforms in the PRC has grown in parallel with consumer confidence in their security and efficiency. However, we do not have control over the security measures taken by providers of our third-party platforms. In the event that the security and integrity of these third-party platforms are compromised, we may experience material adverse effects on our ability to process our service fees. We may also be perceived as partially responsible for failures to secure personal information and be subjected to claims alleging possible liability brought by the customers. Such legal proceedings could damage our reputation and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the PRC Government may yet promulgate new laws and policies to regulate the use of third-party online payment platforms. Such measures may increase our compliance and operational costs, for example by requiring that we pay higher transaction fees.

Our value-added services through our online platforms may fail to provide satisfactory services, which may not be able to attract and retain sufficient interest from property owners and residents.

We aim to expand the functionality of our online service platforms, such as our Xiaohui Dangjia App and WeChat mini mobile applications, to increase accessibility and improve user experience and plan to attract further use by residents and tenants of the properties we manage. However, our online service platforms are relatively new and still evolving and we cannot assure you that we will be able to grow these platforms as planned. There can be no assurance that property owners, residents and tenants will respond favourably to them. If our online service platforms fail to provide satisfactory services and products that attract and retain sufficient interest of property owners, residents and tenants as planned, they may cease using such service platforms. In such event, we will not be able to successfully develop our community value-added services or introduce more revenue-generating value-added and other services through our online service platforms. Moreover, we may also encounter technical problems, security issues that may prevent our platform from functioning properly and our users from receiving desired services, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our success depends on the retention of our senior management team and our ability to attract and retain qualified and experienced employees.

Our continued success depends on the efforts of our senior management team and other key employees. As they possess key connections and industry expertise, losing their services may have a material adverse effect on our business. We believe that their experience with commercial operational service as well as insight into and knowledge of our industry, business operations and history have guided and will continue to guide us toward success. We believe that their expertise will help us compete more effectively. For further details on our Directors and senior management, see the section headed “Directors and Senior Management” in this document.

We are exposed to risks associated with failing to detect and prevent fraud, negligence or other misconduct committed by our employees, third-party subcontractors or other third parties.

We are exposed to fraud, negligence or other misconduct, intended or unintended, committed by our employees, subcontractors, agents, customers or other third parties that could subject us to financial losses and sanctions imposed by governmental authorities as well as seriously harm our reputation. We cannot assure you that our risk management and internal control systems will always enable us to detect, prevent and take remedial measures in relation to fraud, negligence or other misconduct committed by our employees, third-party subcontractors or other third parties in a timely and effective manner. Examples of such behaviour include crimes such as theft, vandalism and bribery during tenders.

Although we have limited control over the behaviour of any of these parties, we may be viewed as at least partially responsible for their conduct on contractual or tortious grounds or suffer loss as a result of their misconducts. We may become, or be joined as, a defendant in litigation or other administrative or investigative proceedings and be held accountable for injuries or damages sustained by our customers or other third parties. In the event that we cannot recover related costs from the employees, third-party subcontractors or other third parties involved in the misconducts, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Such misconducts could also attract negative publicity on our Group, damaging our reputation and brand value.

Our employees and third-party subcontractors may sustain work injuries during the ordinary course of providing commercial operational services and property management services, which may exposes us to liability and reputation risk.

Work injuries may occur during the ordinary course of our business. For example, repair and maintenance services performed by our employees or subcontractors may involve the handling of tools and machinery that carry the inherent occupational risk of accidents. Hence, we are exposed to risks in relation to work safety, including but not limited to claims for injuries, fatal or otherwise, sustained by our employees and third-party subcontractors. Such occurrences may also damage our reputation within the commercial operational service market and property management service market. We may also experience business disruptions and be required to implement additional safety measures or modify our business model as a result of any governmental or other investigations. As a result, our business, financial condition, results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our prospects may be adversely affected by COVID-19 pandemic or other adverse public health developments.

An outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus, namely COVID-19, was identified in late 2019 and spread globally in over 200 countries and territories. In March 2020, the World Health Organisation characterised the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic. The accelerated spread of the virus globally has caused extreme volatility in the global financial markets. For example, China experienced a slower-than-usual growth of 2.3% in its GDP in 2020, as compared to 6.0% in 2019, which was the biggest contraction since its GDP records began. The COVID-19 pandemic has had an adverse impact, and may continue to cause adverse impacts in the long-term, on the economy and social conditions in China and other affected countries, and this may have an adverse impact on the PRC property development and management industries and adversely affect our business operations. For example, to comply with the requirements of local governments with respect to community management during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, we assigned personnel to conduct visitor control for properties under our management. The COVID-19 pandemic has a relatively direct impact on the commercial properties operated by us from the aspects such as tenant sourcing, rent collection rate and whether the commercial property is allowed to open. While the COVID-19 pandemic appears to be contained in China for the time being, international travels and business activities have been substantially reduced which may have a material adverse impact on the Chinese economy. We are uncertain as to when the COVID-19 pandemic will be contained globally or whether it may resurge in China, and we also cannot predict whether COVID-19 pandemic will have a long-term impact on our business operations. If we are not able to effectively and efficiently operate our business and implement our strategies as planned, we may not be able to grow our business and generate revenue as anticipated, and our business operations, financial condition and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

In addition, in order to comply with government regulations and measures to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, we assigned additional staff and incurred additional medical and sterilisation material costs. Furthermore, the health of many of our staff is exposed to a higher risk of infection with COVID-19 due the client-facing nature of their duties. If the scale of COVID-19 pandemic escalates and further government regulation and measures to combat the COVID-19 pandemic are implemented, we may incur additional cost of operations in terms of human resources arrangement and purchase of medical materials and our results of operations and financial performance could be negatively affected.

Please refer to the section headed “Business—Effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic” in this document.

Our rights to use our leased properties could be challenged by third parties, or we may be forced to relocate due to title defects, or we may be liable that some of our lease agreements have not been filed with the relevant PRC authorities and, as a result, we might be subject to administrative fines.

During the Track Record Period, we leased properties in various locations in the PRC for use primarily as office spaces and employee dormitories. As at the Latest Practicable Date, we had not completed the administrative filings of five lease agreements relating to properties we leased. According to applicable PRC regulations, the lessor and the lessee of a lease agreement

–48– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS are required to file the lease agreement with relevant governmental authorities within 30 days after the execution of the lease agreement. If the filing is not made, the governmental authorities may require that the filing be made within a stated period of time, failing which they may impose a fine ranging from RMB1,000 to RMB10,000 for each agreement that has not been properly filed. According to applicable PRC regulations, lessors of the related leases need to provide us with certain documents (such as their business licences or identification information) in order to complete the administrative filing. There can be no assurance that the lessors of our leased properties will be cooperative in the process of completing the filings. If we fail to complete the administrative filings within the period required by the relevant governmental authorities and relevant authorities determine that we shall be liable for failing to complete the administrative filings of all the relevant lease agreements, we might be subject to fines. Please refer to the section headed “Business—Properties” in this document.

We may fail to obtain or renew required permits, licences, certificates or other relevant PRC governmental approvals necessary for our business operations.

We are required to obtain governmental approvals in the form of permits, licences and certificates to provide our services. Generally, they are only issued or renewed after certain conditions have been satisfied. We cannot assure you that we will not encounter obstacles toward fulfilling such conditions that delay us in obtaining or renewing, or result in our failure to obtain or renew, the required governmental approvals. In addition, the PRC Government and relevant authorities may promulgate new policies in relation to the conditions for issuance or renewal from time to time. We cannot guarantee that such new policies will not present unexpected obstacles toward our ability to obtain or renew the required permits, licences and certificates or that we will be able to overcome these obstacles in a timely manner, or at all. Loss of or failure to obtain or renew our permits, licences and certificates could result in disruption to our business operations, potentially leading to material adverse effects on our business and results of operations.

We may fail to effectively protect our intellectual property rights or conversely, we may subject to claims by third parties alleging possible infringement of their intellectual property rights.

We rely on our trade name and trademarks to build brand value and recognition, which we believe are key to our future growth and for fostering customer loyalty. Unauthorised use or infringement of our trade names or trademarks may impair our brand value and recognition. Third parties may use our intellectual property in ways that damage our reputation in the commercial operational and property management service market. We primarily rely on a combination of copyrights, trademarks, confidentiality agreements and domain name registrations to protect our intellectual property rights. We cannot assure you that our measures to protect our intellectual property will be sufficient and that we will be able to detect all misappropriation or unauthorised use of our trade name and trademarks in a timely manner, or at all. There is also no guarantee that we will be successful in any enforcement proceedings that we undertake. Litigation to protect our intellectual property may be time-consuming, costly and divert management attention from our operations. While experiencing material adverse effects on our business and financial condition, failures to protect our intellectual property rights may also diminish our competitiveness and market share.

–49– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Conversely, we may subject to claims from competitors or third parties alleging intellectual property infringement in our ordinary course of business from time to time. Any claims or legal proceedings brought against us in relation to such issues, with or without merit, could result in substantial costs and divert capital resources and management attention. In the event of an adverse determination, we may be compelled to pay substantial damages or to seek licences from third parties and pay ongoing royalties on unfavourable terms. In addition, regardless of whether we prevail, intellectual property disputes may damage our brand value and reputation in the eyes of current and potential customers and within our industry. As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

We may be subject to additional tax liabilities and adverse tax consequences as a result of tax adjustment.

As at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, we had income tax liabilities of RMB1.8 million, RMB1.7 million and RMB8.9 million, respectively. Income tax liabilities as at the specified dates mainly represented the income tax payable for the year then ended according to the prevailing income tax rate. Historically, we recorded revenues upon the settlement of invoices with customers, and recorded relevant cost of sales and other operating expenses when we made the payments to suppliers or employees. We subsequently made adjustments to record revenues when services were rendered to customers, and to record relevant cost of sales and other operating expenses when they were incurred in accordance with applicable HKFRSs. Please refer to the section headed “Financial Information—Description of Certain Combined Balance Sheet Items—Income Tax Liabilities” in this document for further information. As a result, we made an one-off tax adjustment in the amount of RMB1.6 million mainly in relation to the timing difference in tax computation of 2018, 2019 and 2020 for EIT, VAT and our tax surcharge, which was fully settled in June 2021.

However, the final determination of the relevant tax authorities could be different and we may face adverse tax consequences if any of the relevant tax authorities determine that we have not fully or timely paid our taxes for the Track Record Period or any prior periods. Under applicable PRC laws and regulations, the relevant PRC authorities may demand that we pay the outstanding tax within a prescribed time period and we may be subject to a late payment fee equal to 0.05% of the outstanding amount for each day of delay; if we fail to make such payments within a prescribed time period, we may be subject to a fine of 50% to five times the amount of the outstanding tax payments. Any of these additional tax liabilities or adverse tax consequences could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

We may be subject to fines for any inability to comply with national environmental, health and safety standards.

We are subject to extensive and increasingly stringent environmental protection, health and labour safety laws, regulations and decrees that impose fines for violation of such laws, regulations or decrees. In addition, there is a growing awareness of environmental, health and labour safety issues, and we may sometimes be expected to meet a standard which is higher than the compulsory requirements. We cannot guarantee that more stringent environmental protection, health and labour safety requirements or standards will not be imposed in the future. We cannot assure you that our procedures and training will be completely effective in

–50– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS satisfying all relevant environmental and safety requirements. If we are unable to comply with existing or future environmental, health and labour safety laws and regulations or are unable to meet public expectations in relation to relevant matters, our reputation may be damaged or we may be required to pay penalties or fines or take remedial actions and our operations may be suspended, any of which may materially and adversely impact our business, financial position, results of operations and growth prospects.

Fluctuations in amounts of tax benefits or government grants may lead to volatility in our profit.

We enjoy favourable treatment from government authorities in respect of, among other things, tax benefits and government grants to support local corporate and economic development and to encourage our effort of stabilising employment. Certain of our subsidiaries in the PRC are located in Chongqing, which are subject to a preferential income tax rate of 15%. Our government grants amounted to RMB0.2 million, RMB0.5 million and RMB1.5 million, or 1.1%, 1.5% and 2.8% of our profit for the year ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. Tax benefits and government grants fluctuated during the Track Record Period because such benefits and grants were subject to the government policy in that year or period. There can be no assurance that we will continue to receive significant amounts of tax benefits or government grants, or at all. Accordingly, we may experience additional fluctuations in our tax benefits and government grants, which may lead to volatility in our profit.

In addition, the implementation of favourable policies《關於階段性減免企業社會保險費的 ( 通知》(人社部發[2020]11號)) as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak for the reduction and waiver of social insurance contribution contributed to the decrease in our staff costs in 2020 as compared with 2019. If we do not enjoy such favourable policies in the future, our cost of sales may increase and gross profit margin may be negatively affected. Moreover, during the Track Record Period, Funeng Ronghui, our joint venture received government grants of RMB0.9 million, RMB6.6 million and RMB5.9 million for 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. With these government grants, Funeng Ronghui was able to maintain profitable during the Track Record Period with relatively low management fee for its government projects. 2021 is the last year for the current government grants arrangement provided to Funeng Ronghui. There can be no assurance that Funeng Ronghui will continue to receive government grants at such level, or at all. In addition, if Funeng Ronghui receives government grants at a lower level or ceases to receive any government grants in the future, there can be no guarantee that Funeng Ronghui can successfully increase its management fees or diversify its revenue source. Accordingly, our share of results of the joint venture may be negatively affected.

Our insurance coverage may not sufficiently cover the risks related to our business.

We purchase and maintain insurance policies that we believe are customary with the standard commercial practice in our industry and as required under the relevant laws and regulations. For further details on the insurance policies we maintain, please refer to the section headed “Business—Insurance” in this document. However, we cannot assure you that our insurance policies will provide adequate coverage for all the risks in connection with our business operations. Consistent with customary practice in the PRC, we do not carry any business interruption insurance or litigation insurance. In addition, insurance policies against disruption or damage caused by instances such as natural disasters, wars, civil unrest and acts of terrorism are not available in the PRC on commercially practicable terms. We may be required to bear our losses to the extent that our insurance coverage is insufficient. If we were to incur substantial losses and liabilities that are not covered by our insurance policies, we could suffer significant costs and diversion of our resources, and thereby materially and adversely affecting our business, financial condition and results of operations.

–51– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

We are subject to risks beyond our control relating to natural disasters, epidemics, acts of terrorism or wars, and other disasters in the PRC and globally.

Our business is subject to general economic and social conditions in the PRC. The outbreak of any severe diseases in China such as the human swine flu, also known as Influenza A (H1N1), H5N1 avian flu or severe acute respiratory syndrome (“SARS”) or COVID-19, and other natural disasters which are beyond our control may adversely affect the economy, infrastructure and livelihood of the people in the PRC, which in turn may adversely impact domestic consumption and our business. Some regions in the PRC, including certain cities where we operate, are under the threat of flood, earthquake, sandstorm, snowstorm, fire, drought or epidemics. Our business, financial position and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected if natural disasters or other such events occur. China has experienced natural disasters, including earthquakes, floods, landslides and droughts in the past, resulting in deaths of people, significant economic losses and significant and extensive damage to factories, power lines and other properties, as well as blackouts, transportation and communications disruptions and other losses in the affected areas. Furthermore, the PRC reported a number of cases of SARS in 2003. Since its outbreak in 2004, there have been reports on occurrences of avian flu in various parts of the PRC, including several confirmed human cases and deaths. The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in numerous confirmed cases and deaths both in China and globally. Any future outbreak of SARS, COVID-19, avian flu or other similar adverse epidemics may, among others, significantly disrupt our business. Any such natural disasters or outbreak of infectious disease may cause a shortage of labour and raw materials, increase cost to our existing property management projects, which would disrupt our operations and have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our operations could also be disrupted if any of our employees were suspected of contracting or contracted an epidemic disease, since this could require us to quarantine some or all of our employees and disinfect the venues for our business operations. Any such natural disasters, public health and public security hazards may materially and adversely affect or disrupt our business operations and may also severely affect and restrict the level of economic activity in the affected areas, which in turn may have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

Our reputation may be adversely affected by customer complaints relating to services provided by our Group even if they may be frivolous or vexatious.

Our customers may file complaints or claims against our Group regarding our services. Our customers are largely individual property owners and residents who come from all walks of life and may have different expectations on how their properties and neighbourhoods should be managed. As a result, during our ordinary course of business, we need to maintain a balance among these varying expectations.

Although we have established quality control procedures for our services and maintained communication channels for customer feedbacks and complaints, we cannot assure you that all property owners’ and residents’ expectations and demands can be addressed in a timely and effective manner. We also cannot guarantee that certain individual property owners and residents and/or groups of property owners and residents of a property under our management will not have specific demands or expectations which are beyond what we can provide within our normal course of operations. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee that, in order to compel us

–52– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS to meet these demands, such property owners and residents will not attempt to exert pressure by means beyond our control, such as lodging or making frivolous or vexatious complaints to us. Any of such events or any negative publicity thereof, regardless of veracity, may distract our management’s attention and may have an adverse effect on our business, our reputation and the trading price of our Shares.

The elevators we operate may fail to pass inspection.

We operate elevators in the properties we provide property management services and commercial operational services. Elevators are categorised as special equipment under the Regulations on Safety Supervision over Special Equipment and the production, use and inspection of elevators are subject to the supervision of relevant authorities. We currently rely on third party sub-contractors with necessary permits and licences for the repair and maintenance of the elevators we operate. However, we cannot assure you that the elevators we operate can pass all the required inspections and obtained or renew all the necessary use certificates. If we fail to obtain or renew all necessary use certificates for the elevators we operate, the services we provide may be interrupted and out business operations and financial performance may be adversely affected.

We may not have the ability to compel our joint venture to take all actions which we believe would be most beneficial for us, and disputes with our joint venture partners may materially and adversely affect our business.

During the Track Record Period and as at the Latest Practicable Date, we had 50% equity interest in Funeng Ronghui, our joint venture, which we shared its profit and loss. We may have limited control over the proposed strategies, policies or objectives of our joint venture. As a result, our ability to control the decisions of its business depends on a number of factors, including reaching agreement with our joint venture partners, our rights under the joint venture agreement as well as the decision making process applicable to such joint venture. In addition, we are subject to risks associated with such joint venture relationship. Our joint venture partners may:

• have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with ours;

• take actions contrary to our policies, instructions or requests;

• fail to fulfil their obligations under the joint venture agreement; or

• have financial or other difficulties.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to prevent our joint venture from engaging in activities or pursing strategic objectives that conflict with our own interests or strategic objectives or compete with our business. In addition, any serious dispute with our joint venture partners may cause disruption to or termination of the relevant business ventures or other cooperative projects. Although we have not had a serious dispute with any joint venture partners and we are not aware of any action taken by any of our joint venture partners that were materially adverse to us during the Track Record Period, we cannot assure you that all disputes with our joint venture partners may be resolved satisfactorily or in our favour. Such disputes

–53– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS may give rise to litigation or other legal proceedings, which will divert our management’s attention and other resources, and if a verdict or award is rendered against us, we could be required to pay significant monetary damages, assume other liabilities, and suspend or terminate the related joint venture projects. Consequently, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

RISKS RELATING TO DOING BUSINESS IN THE PRC

We are subject to adverse changes in economic, political and social conditions and government policies in the PRC.

A large portion of our major businesses, assets, operations are located in the PRC. Accordingly, our financial condition, results of operations and prospects are, to a significant degree, subject to the economic, political, social and legal conditions in the PRC. The PRC economy differs from that of most developed countries in many respects, including the extent of government involvement, level of economic development, investment control, resource allocation, growth rate and control over foreign exchange. Before its adoption of reform and opening-up policies beginning in 1978, the PRC was primarily a planned economy. Since then, the PRC economy has been transitioning to become a market economy with socialist characteristics.

For approximately four decades, the PRC Government has implemented economic reform measures to utilise market forces in the PRC economy. Many of the reform measures are unprecedented or experimental and are likely to be modified from time to time. Other political, economic and social factors may lead to further readjustment or introduction of other reform measures. This reform process and any changes in laws and regulations or the interpretation or implementation thereof in the PRC may have a material impact on our operations or may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

While the PRC economy has grown significantly in recent years, this growth has been geographically uneven among various sectors of the economy and during different periods. We cannot assure you that the PRC economy will continue to grow, or that if there is growth, such growth will be steady and uniform. Any economic slowdown may materially and adversely affect our business. In the past, the PRC Government has periodically implemented a number of measures intended to slow down certain segments of the economy which the PRC Government believed was overheating. We cannot assure you that the various macroeconomic measures and monetary policies adopted by the PRC Government to guide economic growth and allocate resources will be effective in improving the growth rate of the PRC economy. In addition, such measures, even if they benefit the overall PRC economy in the long term, may reduce demand for our services and therefore could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

–54– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Restrictions on currency exchange under PRC laws and regulations may limit our ability to satisfy obligations denominated in foreign currencies.

Currently, the Renminbi cannot be freely converted into foreign currencies, and the conversion and remittance of foreign currencies are subject to PRC foreign exchange regulations. All of our revenue is denominated in Renminbi. Under our current corporate structure, we derive our income primarily from dividend payments made by our PRC subsidiaries. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends or other payments to us or satisfy other foreign currency-denominated obligations, if any.

Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, the Renminbi is convertible without prior approval from the SAFE for current account transactions so long as certain procedures are complied with. Examples of such current account transactions include profit distributions and interest payments. However, prior approval and registration with the SAFE is required for capital account transactions. Examples of capital account transactions include foreign direct investment and the repayment of loan principal. We cannot assure you that the PRC Government, in seeking to regulate the economy, will not restrict access to foreign currencies for current account transactions in the future. Such restrictions may limit our ability to convert cash from our operating activities into foreign currencies to make dividend payments or satisfy any foreign currency-denominated obligations we may have. Moreover, limitations on the flow of funds between us and our PRC subsidiaries may restrict our ability to provide financing to our PRC subsidiaries and take advantage of business opportunities in response to market conditions.

Fluctuations in exchange rates may have a material adverse impact on your investment.

The exchange rate of the Renminbi fluctuates against the Hong Kong dollar, U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies and is affected by, among other factors, the policies of the PRC Government and changes in international and domestic political and economic conditions. From 1995 to 20 July 2005, the conversion of the Renminbi into foreign currencies was based on fixed rates set by the PBOC. However, effective from 21 July 2005, the PRC Government decided to permit the Renminbi to fluctuate within a regulated band based on market supply and demand and by reference to a basket of currencies. On 30 November 2015, the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund completed a regular five-year review of the basket of currencies that make up the Special Drawing Right and determined that, effective from 1 October 2016, the Renminbi will be included in the Special Drawing Right basket as a fifth currency along with the U.S. dollar, the Euro, the Japanese yen and the British pound. It is difficult to predict how market forces and the PRC Government’s policies will continue to impact Renminbi exchange rates going forward. In light of the trend towards Renminbi internationalisation, the PRC Government may announce further changes to the exchange rate system, and we cannot assure you that the Renminbi will not appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the Hong Kong dollar, U.S. dollar or other foreign currencies.

All of our revenue and liabilities and assets are denominated in Renminbi, while our [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED] will be denominated in Hong Kong dollars. Material fluctuations in the exchange rate of the Renminbi against the Hong Kong dollar may negatively impact the value and amount of any dividends payable on our Shares. For example, significant

–55– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS appreciation of the Renminbi against the Hong Kong dollar could reduce the amount of Renminbi received from converting [REDACTED]or[REDACTED] from future financing efforts to fund our operations. Conversely, significant depreciation of the Renminbi may increase the cost of converting our Renminbi-denominated cash flow into Hong Kong dollars, thereby reducing the amount of cash available for paying dividends on our Shares or carrying out other business operations.

Inflation in the PRC could negatively affect our profitability and growth.

Economic growth in the PRC has, in the past, been accompanied by periods of high inflation. In response, the PRC Government has implemented policies from time to time to control inflation, such as restricting the availability of credit by imposing tighter bank lending policies or higher interest rates. The PRC Government may take similar measures in response to future inflationary pressures. Rampant inflation without the PRC Government’s mitigation policies would likely increase our costs, thereby materially reducing our profitability. We cannot assure you that we will be able to pass any additional costs to our customers. On the other hand, such control measures may also lead to slower economic activity and we may see reduced demand for our services.

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could limit the legal protection available to you.

The legal system in the PRC has inherent uncertainties that could limit the legal protection available to our Shareholders. As we conduct the majority of our business operations in the PRC, we are principally governed by PRC laws, rules and regulations. The PRC legal system is based on the civil law system. Unlike the common law system, the civil law system is established on the written statutes and their interpretation by the Supreme People’s Court (最高人民法院), while prior legal decisions and judgements have limited significance as precedent. Additionally, such PRC written statutes are often principle-oriented and required detailed interpretations by the enforcement bodies for further application and enforcement. The PRC Government has been learning from the common law system, and has made significant progress in promulgating laws and regulations related to economic affairs and matters, such as corporate organisation and governance, foreign investments, commerce, taxation and trade.

However, many of these laws and regulations are relatively new and there is a limited volume of published decisions. Thus, there are uncertainties involved in their implementation and interpretation, which might not be as consistent and predictable as in other jurisdictions. In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and administrative rules that may have retroactive effect. Consequently, we may not be aware of any violation of these policies and rules until sometime after such violation has occurred. Furthermore, the legal protection available to you under these laws, rules and regulations may be limited. Any litigation or regulatory enforcement action in the PRC may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

–56– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of process or enforcing foreign judgements against us, our Directors or senior management residing in the PRC.

Our Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands. Substantially all of our assets are located in the PRC and most of our Directors and senior management reside in the PRC. Therefore, it may not be possible to effect service of process within Hong Kong or elsewhere outside of the PRC upon us or our Directors or senior management. Moreover, the PRC has not entered into treaties for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of court judgements with Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States and many other countries. As a result, recognition and enforcement in the PRC of a court judgement obtained in other jurisdictions may be difficult or impossible.

In addition, Arrangement on Reciprocal Recognition and Enforcement of Judgments in Civil and Commercial Matters by the Courts of the Mainland and of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Pursuant to Choice of Court Agreements between Parties Concerned (最 高人民法院關於內地與香港特別行政區法院相互認可和執行當事人協議管轄的民商事案件判決的安 排) or the Arrangement, was promulgated by the Supreme People’s Court on July 3, 2008 and became effective on 1 August 2008. Pursuant to the Arrangement, a party with a final court judgement rendered by a Hong Kong court requiring payment of money in a civil and commercial case pursuant to a choice of court agreement in writing may apply for recognition and enforcement of the judgement in the PRC. Similarly, a party with a final judgement rendered by a PRC court requiring payment of money in a civil and commercial case pursuant to a choice of court agreement in writing may apply for recognition and enforcement of such judgement in Hong Kong. A choice of court agreement in writing is defined as any agreement in writing entered into between the parties after the effective date of the arrangement in which a Hong Kong or PRC court is expressly designated as the court having sole jurisdiction for the dispute. Therefore, it may not be possible to enforce a judgement rendered by a Hong Kong court in the PRC if the parties in dispute do not agree to enter into a choice of court agreement in writing. It may be difficult or impossible for investors to enforce a Hong Kong court judgement against our assets or our Directors or senior management in the PRC.

We may be deemed a PRC resident enterprise under the EIT law and be subject to a tax rate of 25% on our global income.

Pursuant to the EIT Law, which came into effect on 1 January 2008 and was amended on 24 February 2017 and 29 December 2018, an enterprise established outside the PRC whose “de facto management body” is located in the PRC is considered a “PRC resident enterprise” and will generally be subject to the uniform enterprise income tax rate, or EIT rate, of 25% on its global income. Under the implementation rules of the EIT Law, “de facto management body” is defined as the organisational body that effectively exercises management and control over such aspects as the business operations, personnel, accounting and properties of the enterprise.

On 22 April 2009, the SAT released the Notice Regarding the Determination of Chinese-Controlled Offshore Incorporated Enterprises as PRC Tax Resident Enterprises on the Basis of De Facto Management Bodies《關於境外註冊中資控股企業依據實際管理機構標準認定為 ( 居民企業有關問題的通知》) or Circular 82, as amended on 29 December 2017, which sets out the standards and procedures for determining whether the “de facto management body” of an enterprise registered outside of the PRC and controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise

–57– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS groups is located within the PRC. Under Circular 82, a foreign enterprise controlled by a PRC enterprise or PRC enterprise group is considered a PRC resident enterprise if all of the following apply: (i) the senior management and core management departments in charge of daily business operations are located mainly within the PRC; (ii) financial and human resources decisions are subject to determination or approval by persons or bodies in the PRC; (iii) major assets, accounting books, company seals and minutes and files of board and shareholders’ meetings are located or kept within the PRC; and (iv) at least half of the enterprise’s directors with voting rights or senior management reside within the PRC. In addition, Circular 82 also requires that the determination of “de facto management body” shall be based on the principle that substance is more important than form. Further to Circular 82, SAT issued the Chinese-Controlled Offshore Incorporated Resident Enterprises Income Tax Regulation (Trial Implementation) (《境外註冊中資控股居民企業所得稅管理辦法(試行)》) or Bulletin 45, which took effect on 1 September 2011 and was amended on 1 June 2015, 1 October 2016 and 15 June 2018, to provide more guidance on the implementation of Circular 82 and clarify the reporting and filing obligations of such “Chinese-controlled offshore incorporated resident enterprises.” Bulletin 45 provides procedures and administrative details for the determination of resident status and administration of post-determination matters. Although Circular 82 and Bulletin 45 explicitly provide that the above standards apply to enterprises which are registered outside of the PRC and controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise groups, Circular 82 may reflect the SAT’s criteria for determining the tax residence of foreign enterprises in general. All members of our senior management are currently based in the PRC. If we are deemed a PRC resident enterprise, the EIT rate of 25% on our global taxable income may reduce capital we could otherwise divert to our business operations.

You may be subject to PRC income tax on dividends from us or on any gain realised on the transfer of our Shares under PRC laws.

Under the EIT Law and its implementation rules, subject to any applicable tax treaty or similar arrangement between the PRC and your jurisdiction of residence that provides for a different income tax arrangement, PRC withholding tax at the rate of 10% is normally applicable to dividends from PRC sources payable to investors that are non-PRC resident enterprises, which do not have an establishment or place of business in the PRC, or which have such establishment or place of business if the relevant income is not effectively connected with the establishment or place of business. Any gains realised on the transfer of shares by such investors are subject to a 10% PRC income tax rate if such gains are regarded as income from sources within the PRC unless a treaty or similar arrangement provides otherwise. Under the PRC Individual Income Tax Law《中華人民共和國個人所得稅法》 ( ) and its implementation rules, dividends from sources within the PRC paid to foreign individual investors who are not PRC residents are generally subject to a PRC withholding tax at a rate of 20% and gains from PRC sources realised by such investors on the transfer of shares are generally subject to a 20% PRC income tax rate, in each case, subject to any reduction or exemption set forth in applicable tax treaties and PRC laws.

Although the majority of our business operations are in the PRC, it is unclear whether dividends we pay with respect to our Shares, or the gain realised from the transfer of our Shares, would be treated as income from sources within the PRC and as a result be subject to PRC income tax if we are considered a PRC resident enterprise. If PRC income tax is imposed on gains realised from the transfer of our Shares or on dividends paid to our non-PRC resident

Furthermore, our Shareholders whose jurisdictions of residence have tax treaties or arrangements with the PRC may not qualify for benefits under such tax treaties or arrangements.

We rely on dividends paid by our subsidiaries for our cash needs, and any limitation on the ability of our subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.

We conduct all of our business through our combined subsidiaries incorporated in China. We rely on dividends paid by these combined subsidiaries for our cash needs, including the funds necessary to pay any dividends and other cash distributions to our Shareholders, to service any debt we may incur and to pay our operating expenses. The payment of dividends by entities established in China is subject to limitations. Regulations in China currently permit payment of dividends only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with accounting standards and regulations in China. Each of our PRC subsidiaries is also required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC laws and regulations each year to its statutory capital reserve fund until the aggregate amount of such reserves reaches 50% of its respective registered capital. Our statutory reserves are not distributable as loans, advances or cash dividends. We anticipate that in the foreseeable future our PRC subsidiaries will need to continue to set aside 10% of their respective after-tax profits to their statutory reserves. In addition, if any of our PRC subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. Any limitations on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to transfer funds to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends and otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Regulations relating to offshore investment activities by PRC residents may subject us to fines or sanctions imposed by the PRC government, including restrictions on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends or make distributions to us and our ability to increase our investment in our PRC subsidiaries.

The SAFE promulgated the Circular of the SAFE on Issues concerning Foreign Exchange Administration of the Overseas Investment and Financing and the Round-tripping Investment Made by Domestic Residents through Special-Purpose Companies《國家外匯管理局關於境內居 ( 民通過特殊目的公司境外投融資及返程投資外匯管理有關問題的通知》) or Circular 37, in July 2014, which abolished and superseded the Circular on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for PRC Residents to Engage in Financing and Round Trip Investment via Overseas Special Purpose Vehicles《關於境內居民通過境外特殊目的公司融資及返程投資外匯管 ( 理有關問題的通知》). Pursuant to Circular 37 and its implementation rules, PRC residents, including PRC institutions and individuals, must register with local branches of the SAFE in connection with their direct or indirect offshore investments in an overseas special purpose vehicle, or SPV, directly established or indirectly controlled by PRC residents for the purposes of offshore investment and financing with their legally owned assets or interests in domestic enterprises, or their legally owned offshore assets or interests or any inbound investment through SPVs. Such PRC residents are also required to amend their registrations with SAFE when there is change to the required information of the registered SPV, such as changes to its

–59– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

PRC resident individual shareholder, name, operation period or other basic information, or the PRC individual resident’s increase or decrease in its capital contribution in the SPV, or any share transfer or exchange, merger or division of the SPV. In accordance with the Notice of the SAFE on Further Simplifying and Improving Policies for the Foreign Exchange Administration of Direct Investment《國家外匯管理局關於進一步簡化和改進直接投資外匯管理政策的通知》 ( ), the foreign exchange registration aforesaid has been directly reviewed and handled by banks since 1 June 2015, and the SAFE and its branches perform indirect regulation over such foreign exchange registration through local banks. Under this regulation, failure to comply with the registration procedures set forth in Circular 37 may result in restrictions being imposed on the foreign exchange activities of our PRC subsidiaries, including the payment of dividends and other distributions to its offshore parent or affiliate, the capital inflow from the offshore entities and its settlement of foreign exchange capital, and may also subject the relevant onshore company or PRC residents to penalties under PRC foreign exchange administration regulations.

We are committed to complying with and ensuring that our Shareholders who are subject to the regulations will comply with the relevant rules. Any future failure by any of our Shareholders who is a PRC resident, or controlled by a PRC resident, to comply with relevant requirements under this regulation could subject us to penalties or sanctions imposed by the PRC Government. However, we may not at all times be fully aware or informed of the identities of all of our Shareholders who are PRC residents, and we may not always be able to timely compel our Shareholders to comply with the requirements of Circular 37. Moreover, we cannot assure you that the PRC Government will not have a different interpretation of the requirements of Circular 37 in the future.

PRC laws and regulations establish more complex procedures for some acquisitions of PRC companies by foreign investors, which could make it difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions in the PRC.

A number of PRC laws and regulations, including the M&A Rules, the Anti-Monopoly Law《反壟斷法》 ( ), and the Rules of the MOFCOM on Implementation of Security Review System of Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors《商務部實施外國投資 ( 者併購境內企業安全審查制度的規定》) promulgated by the MOFCOM on 25 August 2011 and effective from 1 September 2011 or the Security Review Rules, have established procedures and requirements that are expected to make the review of certain merger and acquisition activities by foreign investors in the PRC more time-consuming and complex. These include requirements in some instances to obtain approval from local offices of the MOFCOM in advance of any transaction in which foreign investors take control of a PRC domestic enterprise, or to obtain approval from the MOFCOM before overseas companies established or controlled by PRC enterprises or residents acquire affiliated domestic companies. PRC laws and regulations also require certain merger and acquisition transactions to be subject to merger control or security review.

The Security Review Rules prohibits foreign investors from bypassing the security review requirement by structuring transactions through proxies, trusts, indirect investments, leases, loans, control through contractual arrangements or offshore transactions. If we are found to be in violation of the Security Review Rules and other PRC laws and regulations with respect to merger and acquisition activities in the PRC, or fail to obtain any of the required approvals, the relevant regulatory authorities would have broad discretion in dealing with such violations,

–60– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS including levying fines, revoking business and operating licences, confiscating our income and requiring us to restructure or unwind our restructuring activities. Any of these actions could cause significant disruption to our business operations and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, if the business of any target company we plan to acquire falls into the ambit of security review, we may not be able to successfully acquire such company either by equity or asset acquisition, capital contribution or any contractual arrangement. We may grow our business in part by acquiring other companies operating in our industry. Complying with the requirements of the relevant regulations to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including approval from the MOFCOM, may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, thus affecting our ability to expand our business or maintain our market share.

We are subject to the regulatory environment and measures affecting the PRC property management and real estate industries.

Our operations are affected by the regulatory environment and measures affecting the property management industry in the PRC. In particular, the fees that property management companies may charge in connection with property management services are subject to regulation and supervision by relevant regulatory authorities in the PRC. For example, the relevant price administration department and construction administration department of the State Council are jointly responsible for the supervision over and administration of fees charged in relation to property management services for preliminary property management service contracts and such fees may need to follow PRC government guidance prices. Although government-imposed price controls on property management fees may continue to relax over time pursuant to the Circular of the National Development and Reform Commission on Relaxing Price Controls in Certain Services (國家發展改革委關於放開部分服務價格意見的通知) (發改價格[2014]2755號), which became effective on 17 December 2014, the property management fees we charge, such as those for preliminary property management service contracts, may still need to follow guidance prices imposed by local governments in different regions in China.

In addition, if the property management fees we charge are not ratified by the relevant PRC authorities or otherwise not in compliance with the relevant requirements for government guidance prices, we may be subject to applicable administrative penalties and our property management fees in excess of the guidance price may be confiscated by the relevant PRC authorities. For more information, please refer to the section headed “Business—Property Management Services—Our Pricing Policy” in this document. Government-imposed limits and other regulatory requirement on property management fees could have a negative impact on our earnings. We cannot guarantee that the government regulations on property management fees and other matters concerning the property management industry will not have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, which may be material. In addition, as we expand our business operations into new geographic regions and broaden the range of services we perform, we are subject to an increasing number of provincial and local rules and regulations for various aspects of our business operations. As the size and scope of our operations had increased during the Track Record Period, the difficulty of ensuring compliance with the various local property management regulations and the potential for loss resulting from non-compliance have increased. If we fail to comply with the related local regulations, we may be subject to penalties by the competent PRC authorities. The laws and regulations

–61– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS applicable to our business, whether national, provincial or local, may also change in ways that materially increase our costs of compliance, and any failure to comply could result in significant financial penalties which could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial position and results of operations.

Moreover, we may also be affected by the PRC government regulations on the real estate industry. The PRC government had in the past introduced various restrictive measures to discourage speculation in the real estate market and has exerted considerable direct and indirect influence on the development of the PRC real estate industry by imposing industry policies and other economic measures, such as control over the supply of land for property development, control of foreign exchange, real estate financing and taxation. Through these policies and measures, the PRC government may restrict or reduce property development activities, place limitations on the ability of commercial banks to make loans to property purchasers, impose additional taxes and levies on property sales and affect the delivery schedule and occupancy rates of the properties we service. Any such governmental regulations and measures may affect the PRC real estate industry, thus limiting our business growth and resulting in a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations. In particular, the PRC government may introduce other initiatives or implement more stringent measures in the future, such as setting caps on certain debt ratios, with a view to controlling the increase of the debt levels in the real estate sector. Such potential initiatives or measures, once in place, may further limit property developers’ access to capital and slow down the overall growth of the real estate sector and expansion of property developers, including Ronghui Group and/or its associates and joint ventures, which may in turn negatively impact the growth of the property management industry and the supply of new properties for management by property management companies like us. Furthermore, any economic slowdown, recession or other developments in the social, political, economic or legal environment of the PRC could result in fewer new property development projects, or a decline in the purchasing power of residents or tenants of the properties we manage, resulting in lower demand for our services and lower revenue for us. As such, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

SAFE regulations may limit our ability to finance our PRC subsidiaries effectively with the [REDACTED] from the [REDACTED], which may affect the value of your investment and may make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions.

We plan to finance our equity controlled PRC subsidiaries with the [REDACTED]from the [REDACTED] through overseas shareholder loans or additional capital contributions, which require registration with or approvals from PRC Government authorities. Any overseas shareholder loans to our PRC subsidiaries must be registered with the local branch of SAFE as a procedural matter, and such loans cannot exceed a mandatory limitation approved under the relevant PRC laws and based on the elements including their respective registered capital or net asset. In addition, the amounts of the capital contributions are subject to the registration or approval of the Ministry of Commerce in China or its local counterpart. We cannot assure you that we will complete the necessary government registrations or obtain the necessary government approvals on a timely basis, or at all, with respect to making future loans or capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries with the [REDACTED] from the [REDACTED]. If we fail to complete such registrations or obtain such approvals, our ability to contribute additional capital to fund our PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could adversely and materially affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

RISKS RELATING TO THE [REDACTED]

There has been no prior market for our Shares, and their liquidity and market price following the [REDACTED] may be volatile.

Prior to the [REDACTED], there was no public market for our Shares. The indicative [REDACTED] and the [REDACTED] will be determined by negotiations between us and the Sole [REDACTED] (on behalf of the [REDACTED]), and they may differ significantly from the market price of our Shares following the [REDACTED].

We have applied to [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] our Shares on the Stock Exchange. However, even if approved, there can be no guarantee that: (i) an active or liquid trading market for our Shares will develop; or (ii) if such a trading market does develop, it will be sustained following completion of the [REDACTED]; or (iii) the market price of our Shares will not decline below the [REDACTED]. The trading volume and price of our Shares may be subject to significant volatility in response to, among others, the following factors:

• variations in our financial condition and/or results of operations;

• changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial condition and/or results of operations, regardless of the accuracy of information on which their estimates are based;

• changes in investors’ perception of us and the investment environment generally;

• loss of visibility in the markets due to lack of regular coverage of our business;

• strategic alliances or acquisitions;

• potential litigations or regulatory investigations;

• loss of key personnel;

• changes in laws and regulations that impose limitations on our industry;

• announcements made by us or our competitors;

• changes in pricing adopted by us or our competitors;

• the liquidity of the market for our Shares; and

• general economic and other factors.

–63– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RISK FACTORS

Potential investors will experience immediate and substantial dilution as a result of the [REDACTED] and could face dilution as a result of future equity financings.

The [REDACTED] substantially exceeds the per Share value of our net tangible assets after subtracting our total liabilities, and therefore potential investors will experience immediate dilution when they purchase our Shares in the [REDACTED]. If we were to distribute our net tangible assets to our Shareholders immediately following the [REDACTED], potential investors would receive less than the amount they paid for their Shares.

We will comply with Rule 10.08 of the Listing Rules, which specifies that no further Shares or other securities of the Company (subject to certain exceptions) may be issued or form the subject of any agreement to such an issue within six months from the [REDACTED]. However, after six months from the [REDACTED] we may raise additional funds to finance future acquisitions or expansions of our business operations by issuing new Shares or other securities of the Company. As a result, the percentage shareholding of the then Shareholders may be diluted and such newly issued Shares or other securities may confer rights and privileges that have priority over those of the then Shareholders.

The liquidity and market price of our Shares may be volatile, which may result in substantial losses for investors subscribing for or purchasing our Shares pursuant to the [REDACTED].

The price and trading volume of our Shares may be volatile as a result of the following factors, as well as others, which are discussed in this “Risk Factors” section or elsewhere in this document, some of which are beyond our control:

• actual or anticipated fluctuations in our results of operations (including variations arising from foreign exchange rate fluctuations);

• news regarding recruitment or loss of key personnel by us or our competitors;

• announcements of competitive developments, acquisitions or strategic alliances in our industry;

• changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by financial analysts;

• potential litigation or regulatory investigations;

• changes in general economic conditions or other developments affecting us or our industry;

• price movements on international stock markets, the operating and stock price performance of other companies, other industries and other events or factors beyond our control; and

• release of [REDACTED] or other transfer restrictions on our issued and outstanding Shares or sales or perceived sales of additional Shares by us, our Controlling Shareholders or other Shareholders.

You should note that the stock prices of companies in the property management industry have experienced wide fluctuations. Such wide market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our Shares. In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our Shares.

Future or perceived sales of substantial amounts of our Shares could affect their market price.

The market price of our Shares could decline as a result of future sales of substantial amounts of our Shares or other related securities, or the perception that such sales may occur. Our ability to raise future capital at favourable times and prices may also be materially and adversely affected. Our Shares held by the Controlling Shareholders are currently subject to certain lock-up undertakings, please refer to the section headed “[REDACTED] Arrangements and Expenses” in this document. However, we cannot assure you that following the expiration of the lock-up periods, these Shareholders will not dispose of any Shares. We cannot predict the effect of any future sales of the Shares by any of our Shareholders on the market price of our Shares.

We may not declare dividends on our Shares in the future.

Any declaration of dividends will be proposed by our Board of Directors, and the amount of any dividends will depend on various factors, including, without limitation, our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and surplus, contractual restrictions, future prospects and other factors which our Board of Directors may determine are important. Please refer to the section headed “Financial Information—Dividend Policy and Distributable Reserve” in this document for details. We cannot guarantee when, if and in what form dividends will be paid. Our historical dividend policy should not be taken as indicative of our dividend policy in the future.

Investors may experience difficulties in enforcing their Shareholder rights under Cayman Islands law as the protection afforded to minority shareholders under Cayman Islands law may be different from that under the laws of Hong Kong or other jurisdictions.

The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands and its affairs are governed by its Memorandum, Articles, the Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of our Shareholders to take action against our Directors, the rights of minority shareholders to instigate actions and the fiduciary responsibilities of our Directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The laws of the Cayman Islands relating to the protection of the interest of minority shareholders may differ from those of Hong Kong or those of other jurisdictions where investors may be located. As a result, minority Shareholders may not enjoy the same rights as those afforded under the laws of Hong Kong or in other jurisdictions. A summary of the company law of the Cayman Islands on protection of minority shareholders is set out in the section headed “—Summary of the Constitution of our Company and Cayman Islands Companies Law—3. Company Laws of the Cayman Islands—3.10. Taxation” in Appendix III to this document.

Our Controlling Shareholders have substantial influence over the Company and their interests may not be aligned with the interests of Shareholders who [REDACTED] for Shares in the [REDACTED].

Immediately after the [REDACTED], our Controlling Shareholders will directly or indirectly control the exercise of [REDACTED]% of voting rights in the general meeting of the Company. For further details, please refer to the section headed “Relationship with Controlling Shareholders” in this document. The interests of our Controlling Shareholders may differ from the interests of our other Shareholders. Our Controlling Shareholders will have significant influence on the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matters submitted to our Shareholders for approval, including mergers, consolidations, sales of all or substantially all of our assets, election of Directors and other significant corporate actions. This concentration of ownership may discourage, delay or prevent changes in control of the Company that would otherwise benefit our other Shareholders. To the extent that the interests of our Controlling Shareholders conflict with those of our other Shareholders, our other Shareholders may be deprived of opportunities to advance or protect their interests.

Since there will be a gap of several days between the pricing and trading of our [REDACTED], the price of our [REDACTED] could fall below the [REDACTED] when trading commences.

The [REDACTED] of our Shares will be determined on the [REDACTED], which is expected to be on or around [REDACTED]. However, our Shares will not commence trading on the Stock Exchange until the [REDACTED], which is expected to be [REDACTED]. Accordingly, investors may not be able to sell or deal in our Shares during the period between the [REDACTED] and the [REDACTED]. Our Shareholders are subject to the risk that the price of our Shares could fall before trading begins, as a result of adverse market conditions or other adverse developments that could occur between the [REDACTED] and the [REDACTED].

–67– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. WAIVERS FROM STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH THE LISTING RULES

In preparation for the [REDACTED], we have sought the following waivers from strict compliance with the relevant provisions of the Listing Rules.

MANAGEMENT PRESENCE

Pursuant to Rule 8.12 of the Listing Rules, an issuer must have sufficient management presence in Hong Kong, which normally means having at least two of the issuer’s executive directors must be ordinarily resident in Hong Kong.

Currently, neither of our two executive Directors ordinarily resides in Hong Kong. Our Company does not, and for the foreseeable future, will not, have other executive Directors who are ordinarily resident in Hong Kong for the purpose of satisfying the requirements under Rule 8.12 of the Listing Rules. Our Group’s business operations and assets are primarily based outside Hong Kong, and it would be practically difficult and not commercially necessary for us to relocate additional executive Directors to Hong Kong for the purpose of satisfying the requirements under Rule 8.12 of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, we have applied to the Stock Exchange for, and the Stock Exchange [has granted] us, a waiver from compliance with Rule 8.12 of the Listing Rules on the basis that the following measures have been adopted by us:

(1) we have appointed two authorised representatives, Mr. Wong Wai Lam (黄威林), our executive Director, and Ms. Chan Lok Yee (陳濼而), our joint company secretary, pursuant to Rule 3.05 of the Listing Rules who will act as our Company’s principal channel of communication with the Stock Exchange and ensure that they comply with the Listing Rules at all times. Ms. Chan Lok Yee is ordinarily resident in Hong Kong. Each of our authorised representatives will be available to meet with the Stock Exchange in Hong Kong within a reasonable time frame upon the request of the Stock Exchange and will be readily contactable by telephone, facsimile and email. Each of the two authorised representatives is authorised to communicate on our behalf with the Stock Exchange;

(2) both our authorised representatives have means to contact all members of our Board (including our independent non-executive Directors) promptly at all times as and when the Stock Exchange wishes to contact the members of our Board for any matters. Our Directors who are not ordinarily resident in Hong Kong possess or can apply for valid travel documents to visit Hong Kong and will be able to meet with the Stock Exchange within a reasonable period of time, when required. All Directors have provided his/her mobile phone numbers, fax numbers and e-mail addresses (where available) to our authorised representatives, in the event that a Director expects to travel or is otherwise out of office, he/she will endeavour to provide the phone number of the place of his/her accommodation to our authorised representatives or maintain an open line of communication via his/her mobile phone and all Directors and authorised representatives have provided his/her mobile numbers, office phone numbers, fax numbers and email addresses (where available) to the Stock Exchange;

(3) we have appointed CEB International Capital Corporation Limited as our compliance advisor pursuant to Rule 3A.19 of the Listing Rules, which has access at all times to our authorised representatives, Directors, senior management and other

–68– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. WAIVERS FROM STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH THE LISTING RULES

officers of our Company, and will act as an additional channel of communication between the Stock Exchange and us; and

(4) meetings between the Stock Exchange and our Directors could be arranged through our authorised representatives or the compliance advisor, or directly with our Directors within a reasonable time frame. Our Company will promptly inform the Stock Exchange of any changes of our authorised representatives and/or our compliance advisor.

CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

We have entered into certain transactions which will constitute continuing connected transactions for our Company under the Listing Rules after the [REDACTED]. We have applied for, and the Stock Exchange [has granted] us, waivers from strict compliance with (i) the announcement requirement under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules in respect of the continuing connected transactions as disclosed in the section headed “Connected Transactions—(A) Continuing Connected Transactions subject to the Reporting, Annual Review and Announcement Requirements but exempt from the Circular and Independent Shareholders’ Approval Requirements” in this document; and (ii) the announcement, circular and independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules in respect of the continuing connected transactions as disclosed in the section headed “Connected Transactions—(B) Continuing Connected Transactions subject to the Reporting, Annual Review, Announcement, Circular and Independent Shareholders’ Approval Requirements” in this document. See the section headed “Connected Transactions” in this document for further information.

JOINT COMPANY SECRETARIES

According to Rules 3.28 and 8.17 of the Listing Rules and the Guidance Letter HKEX-GL 108-20 issued by the Stock Exchange, the secretary of an issuer must be a person who has the requisite knowledge and experience to discharge the functions of the company secretary and is either (i) a member of the Hong Kong Institute of Chartered Secretaries, a solicitor or barrister as defined in the Legal Practitioners Ordinance (Chapter 159 of the Laws of Hong Kong) or a certified public accountant as defined in the Professional Accountants Ordinance (Chapter 50 of the Laws of Hong Kong); or (ii) an individual who, by virtue of his academic or professional qualifications or relevant experience, is, in the opinion of the Stock Exchange, capable of discharging the functions of company secretary.

We have appointed Mr. Lin Wei (林偉) and Ms. Chan Lok Yee as our joint company secretaries. Mr. Lin Wei is our Group’s head of finance department and securities affairs department and is responsible for the daily affairs of the abovementioned departments of our Group. He has over 11 years of experience in financial management. Our Directors are of the view that, having regard to Mr. Lin Wei’s thorough understanding of the financial operations and overall management of our Group, he is therefore considered as a suitable person to act as a company secretary of the Company. In addition, as our headquarters and principal business operations are located in the PRC, our Directors believe that it is necessary to appoint Mr. Lin Wei as a joint company secretary whose presence in the PRC enables him to attend to the day-to-day corporate secretarial matters concerning our Group. However, as Mr. Lin Wei does

–69– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. WAIVERS FROM STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH THE LISTING RULES not possess the qualification stipulated in Note 1 to Rule 3.28 of the Listing Rules, he is not able to solely fulfil the requirements under Rules 3.28 and 8.17 of the Listing Rules. Therefore, our Company has appointed Ms. Chan Lok Yee, an associate member of the Hong Kong Institute of Chartered Secretaries and an associate member of The Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (now known as The Chartered Governance Institute) in the United Kingdom, who is qualified under Rule 3.28 of the Listing Rules, to act as the other joint company secretary to provide support to Mr. Lin Wei on an ongoing basis.

Accordingly, we have applied to the Stock Exchange for, and the Stock Exchange [has granted] us, a waiver from strict compliance with the requirements under Rules 3.28 and 8.17 of the Listing Rules on the condition that Mr. Lin Wei will be assisted by Ms. Chan Lok Yee as our joint company secretary throughout the three-year period from the [REDACTED]. Ms. Chan Lok Yee will assist Mr. Lin Wei and provide training and guidance to him throughout the three-year period from the [REDACTED]. Being a manager of corporate services at Vistra Corporate Services (HK) Limited, and by virtue of her experience in corporate secretarial practice, Ms. Chan Lok Yee is, in our Directors’ opinion, a person who is qualified and suitable to provide assistance to Mr. Lin Wei for the three-year period from the [REDACTED]soasto enable him to acquire the relevant experience (as required under Note 2 to Rule 3.28 of the Listing Rules) to duly discharge his duties. In addition, Ms. Chan Lok Yee will comply with the annual professional training requirement under Rule 3.29 of the Listing Rules and will enhance her knowledge of the Listing Rules during the three-year period from the [REDACTED]. Our Company will further ensure that Mr. Lin Wei has access to the relevant training and support that would enhance his understanding of the Listing Rules and the duties of a company secretary of an issuer [REDACTED] on the Stock Exchange.

The information in this section is derived from an independent report prepared by CIA. The industry report prepared by CIA is based on information from its database, publicly available sources, industry reports, data obtained from interviews and other sources. We believe that the sources of the information in this section are appropriate sources for such information and have taken reasonable care in extracting and reproducing such information. We have no reason to believe that such information is false or misleading or that any part has been omitted that would render such information false or misleading. The information has not been independently verified by us, the Sole Sponsor, the [REDACTED], the [REDACTED], the [REDACTED], any of their directors, officers, affiliates, advisors or representatives, or any other party (other than CIA) involved in the [REDACTED]. We, the Sole Sponsor, the [REDACTED], the [REDACTED], the [REDACTED], any of its directors, officers, affiliates, advisors or representatives, and any other party (other than CIA) involved in the [REDACTED] make no representation as to the completeness, accuracy or fairness of such information and accordingly such information should not be unduly relied upon.

BACKGROUND AND METHODOLOGIES OF CIA We commissioned CIA, an independent market research and consulting company, to conduct an analysis of, and to prepare a report on the property management industry and commercial operational service industry in the PRC. We agree to pay CIA a total fee of RMB800,000, which we believe reflects the market rates for reports of this type. CIA has extensive experiences in researching and tracking the PRC property management industry and commercial operational service industry, and has conducted research on the Top 100 Property Management Companies together with the China Real Estate Top 10 Research Group since 2008. CIA uses research parameters and assumptions and gathers data from multiple primary and secondary sources, including (i) data provided by property management companies for the purpose of marketing research; (ii) property owner satisfaction surveys conducted by the China Real Estate Top 10 Research Group; (iii) data from the China Real Estate Index System and the China Real Estate Statistics Yearbooks; (iv) public information of property management companies (including corporate website and promotion materials); (v) public data from governmental authorities; and (iv) data gathered previously from the property management companies. The ranking of China’s Top 100 Property Management Companies is based on an index system that primarily evaluates data in relation to management scale, operational performance, service quality, growth potential and social responsibility of the property management companies under consideration. CIA assesses the growth potential of property management companies primarily in terms of growth rate of revenue, growth rate of total GFA under management, contracted but undelivered GFA as well as the total number and composition of employees. Data analysis in this section includes data and information on the Top 100 Property Management Companies as ranked by CIA. In determining such rankings, CIA adopts the factor analysis method and may assign the same ranking to multiple companies with the same or very close scores, and therefore it is possible that more than 100 companies may be classified as being among the Top 100 Property Management Companies in the industry. CIA may, upon specific request, prepare further rankings within the Top 100 Property Management Companies for certain indices. In preparing the CIA Report, CIA assumed that: (i) the social, economic and political conditions in China and the world will remain stable during the forecast period; (ii) government policies on the property management industry and commercial operational service industry in China will remain unchanged during the forecast period; (iii) all data published by the relevant statistics bureaus are accurate; (iv) the COVID-19 outbreak will have short term impact on the Chinese economy stability; and (v) all information collected relating to residential sales transactions from the relevant local housing administrative bureaus are accurate. THE PRC PROPERTY MANAGEMENT INDUSTRY Overview The property management industry in the PRC is intensely competitive and highly fragmented. Over the years, the steady growth of economy, accelerating urbanisation, consumption upgrades and increasing residents’ income level in the PRC provided strong demand for the property management market. Meanwhile, the policies related to the property management industry have gradually evolved from normative to supportive. In addition, the application of internet has provided new opportunities in exploring more technology-enabled roles and functions for the property management service providers. PRC property management companies currently provide services in relation to a wide range of properties in addition to residential properties, such as commercial properties, industrial parks, schools and hospitals.

Major Fee Models in the Property Management Industry In addition to the revenue generated from general property management services, property management companies in the PRC may also generate revenue from community value-added services, including, among others, community area operational services, e-commerce services, property agency services, housekeeping services, community finance services and elderly care services and non-property owners’ value-added services, including, among others, sales area management services, engineering services and consultancy services. In the PRC, property management fees may be charged either on a lump sum basis or a commission basis. The lump sum fee model for property management fees is the dominant fee model in the property management industry in the PRC, especially for residential properties. The lump-sum fee model can increase efficiency by dispensing certain collective decision-making procedures for large expenditures by property owners and residents and incentivizing property management service providers to optimise their operations to enhance profitability. In contrast, the commission model is increasingly adopted for non-residential properties, allowing property owners to become more involved in the management of their properties and closely supervise service providers. Overview of the Top 100 Property Management Companies According to CIA, the Top 100 Property Management Companies have been able to lower operating cost ratio by diversifying their services, adopting upgraded technologies and standardisation procedures to become more automated. The total GFA under management by the Top 100 Property Management Companies increased from 5.4 billion sq.m. in 2016 to 12.9 billion sq.m. in 2020, representing a CAGR of 24.0%, expected to increase to 22.2 billion sq.m. in 2025, representing a CAGR of 11.7%. In 2020, average property management fee for residential properties managed by the Top 100 Property Management Companies (as the dominant portion of their property management portfolios) was RMB2.05 per sq.m. per month. The average operating cost ratio of the Top 100 Property Management Companies was approximately 76.0% and 75.5% in 2019 and 2020, respectively. Market Size of Property Management Industry Market Size and Future Development of Property Management Industry in the PRC According to CIA, from 2016 to 2020, the urbanisation rate of the PRC rose from 57.4% to 63.9%, representing a CAGR of 2.7%. The increase in urbanisation rate led to the expansion of the urban housing market and the scale of property management services. According to CIA, the total GFA under management in the PRC increased from 18.5 billion sq.m. in 2016 to 25.9 billion sq.m. in 2020, representing a CAGR of 8.8%, and is expected to increase to 34.8 billion sq.m. in 2025, representing a CAGR of 6.2%.

Source: CIA Report As at 31 December 2020, the average management fee for the Top 100 Property Management Companies in Chongqing, Fuzhou and Jinan was RMB3.00 per sq.m. per month, RMB2.77 per sq.m. per month and RMB3.33 per sq.m. per month, respectively. For the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, the average management fee collection rate for the Top 100 Property Management Companies was 93.8%, 93.1% and 93.6%, respectively. Labour costs The average labour costs of Top 100 Property Management Companies amounted to RMB391.6 million, RMB466.8 million and RMB516.7 million in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. Labour costs are the largest component of costs among the Top 100 Property Management Companies, which accounted for 57.8%, 59.1% and 58.3% of the total costs of sales of the Top 100 Property Management Companies in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. The Top 100 Property Management Companies are faced with increasing labour costs pressure as a result of the rise of minimum wage level in major cities of the PRC and the increasing number of staff employed, which in turn increases other costs, including training and management costs. Industry Growth Drivers for Property Management Industry Rapid Urbanisation and Growth in Per Capita Disposable Income and Growth in Demand According to CIA, China’s growth in urbanisation and per capita disposable income has been the principal driver for the growth of the property management industry. Chinese consumers increasingly demand better living conditions and quality property management services, which is another underlying reason for the growth of the PRC property management industry. Given the growth in per capital disposal income, we expect consumers for property management services to become increasingly sophisticated in their service requirements and preferences and, in turn, could be willing to pay higher premiums for quality services. Favourable Policies In June 2003, the PRC Government promulgated the Regulations on Property Management《物業管理條例》 ( ), establishing a regulatory framework for the property management industry in China. Since then, a number of laws and rules have come into effect regulating various aspects of the property management industry and numerous policies enacted to promote its development. These include, but are not limited to, the Circular of the NDRC on the Opinions of Relaxing Price Controls in Certain Services《國家發展和改革委關於放開部分服 ( 務價格意見的通知》), the Guidance on Accelerating the Development of the Resident Service Industry to Promote the Upgrading of Consumption Structure《關於加快發展生活性服務業促進 ( 消費結構升級的指導意見》), and the Opinion on Strengthening and Improving the Governance of Urban and Rural Communities《關於加強和完善城鄉社區治理的意見》 ( ) and the Circular on Strengthening and Improving the Administration of Residential Property《關於加強和改進住宅 物業管理工作的通知》. Moreover, the Civil Code《民法典》 ( ) implemented on 1 January 2021 provides clearer and more detailed regulations on the rights and obligations of property management companies, such as engagement of property management services companies and collection and use of the maintenance and repair fund. Furthermore, various provincial and municipal governments have issued their own laws and rules to construct the regulatory frameworks for the local property management industries. We expect that the PRC property management industry will continue to grow with government encouragement under the various regulatory frameworks.

Growth in Supply of Properties Following rapid urbanisation and continuous growth in per capita disposable income, the supply of residential properties in the PRC also grew substantially. The total GFA of properties sold increased from 1,573.5 million sq.m. in 2016 to 1,760.9 million sq.m. in 2020, representing a CAGR of approximately 2.9%. Increasing Adoption of Information Technology in Property Management Service Many property management companies have to some extent reduced costs and enhanced profitability by applying information technologies such as cloud application, e-commerce, internet of things, big data and artificial intelligence to their business operations. In addition, by adopting new technologies and using e-service platforms, property management companies could effectively integrate and allocate resources to provide more diversified community value-added services and further expand their services to include common area management, property agency and housekeeping, among others. As a result, the revenue generated from value-added services increasingly becomes an important source of revenue for property management companies. Access to the Hong Kong capital market Since 2014, Hong Kong capital market has been providing an alternative avenue for property management companies to raise funds. Increased access to the capital market in Hong Kong provides property management companies with funds for future development and can carry out high-quality mergers and acquisitions to achieve scale expansion and service development rapidly. THE PRC COMMERCIAL OPERATIONAL SERVICE INDUSTRY OVERVIEW Overview Commercial operational service provides a series of consultation and operation services that cover the entire life cycle of the commercial properties, including but not limited to market research and positioning services, tenant sourcing services, pre-opening preparatory and commercial operation services. The core value of commercial operation service lies in the continuous operation and management of commercial projects to enhance the value of commercial projects by attracting more customers and achieving higher occupancy rates and rents. In terms of fee model, the fees charged for commercial operational services are generally agreed upon parties, depending on the nature of the services provided at different stages, such as fixed management fee based on total GFA under management and management fee charged based on the revenue of the tenants. However, according to CIA, there is still no standardised fee or market practice followed in the industry. Market Size of Commercial Operational Service Industry With the acceleration of urbanisation and the increasing investment in commercial properties, the commercial operational service market expanded in recent years. According to CIA, the total GFA of commercial properties under management in the PRC have increased from 704.6 million sq.m in 2016 to 1.2 billion sq.m. in 2020, representing a CAGR of 13.5%, and is expected to increase to 1.9 billion sq.m. in 2025, representing a CAGR of 10.0%.

In January 2020, the Chongqing Municipal People’s Government issued the “Notice of the General Office of the Chongqing Municipal People’s Government on Accelerating the Development of Circulation and Promoting Commercial Consumption”, with a purpose of promoting consumption in 20 areas by accelerating the transformation and upgrading of traditional enterprises, the transformation and upgrading of commercial pedestrian streets, the development of branded chain convenience stores, the optimisation of community convenience commercial facilities and the satisfaction of consumer demand for high-quality goods. Rapid Urbanisation and Scaled Commercial Property Market The urbanisation rate in China increased from approximately 57.4% in 2016 to approximately 63.9% in 2020. Urbanisation leads to the development of urban area which increases the consumption power and demand, together with the upgrade of commercial environment, will promote the growth of commercial properties market and in turn stimulate the demand for commercial operational services market. In addition, the Chinese government is accelerating the urbanisation process and cultivating new growth poles in the central and western regions of China, which provides growth opportunities for the commercial property and commercial operational services markets in those regions. Continuous Growth in Consumption and Upgrades in Consumer’s Spending Power The total retail sales of consumer goods of China increased from RMB33.2 trillion in 2016 to RMB39.2 trillion in 2020, representing a CAGR of 4.2%. The consumption continued to serve as the main engine driving growth. The PRC Government will promote income growth and ensure that people’s basic needs are met so as to encourage and enable consumer spending. According to CIA, consumption will continue to provide important support for the Chinese economy towards high-quality development. In addition, the increase in per capita annual disposable income in China has a positive effect on Chinese consumers’ demand for better commercial operational services. Information Technology Promotes the Rapid Growth of Commercial Operational Services According to CIA, traditional commercial operational services are facing many problems such as “difficult management, slow tenant sourcing and complicated account management” (管 理難,招商慢,賬務雜). To better control costs and maintain competitiveness, commercial operational service providers need to standardise and automate their operations to improve their competence and service quality and to meet diversified customer demands. For example, the commercial operational service providers can apply digitalised and intelligent information service platform to integrate the corporate ERP system, commercial operation system and accounting system and reorganise their online and offline data, so as to achieve operational efficiency. In addition, the new technology offers customers a more convenient shopping experience with the latest shopping information, and on the other hand allows the merchants to have access to the data of the products, the shops and the customers so as to assist their commercial decision making.

LARGE-SCALE INTEGRATED PROPERTY MANAGEMENT SERVICES According to CIA, large-scale integrated property refers to a real estate project that contains residential properties and at least one type of non-residential properties with a GFA of more than 500,000 sq.m. that has the integrated functions such as residential and commercial consumption. Therefore, the large-scale integrated property is a concept in terms of both scale and property types. As a special business combination, the large-scale integrated property has the characteristics of large scale, high density and synergy effect of diversified property types. Therefore, when managing large-scale integrated property, property management companies are providing services to multiple property types simultaneously, which is different from managing single-use properties, such as residential-only or office-only properties. In addition, benefiting from the large-scale, high-density, and synergy effect of diversified property types of the large-scale integrated property, the property management companies of the large-scale integrated property have advantages in providing various value-added services. For the property management industry which is increasingly emphasising on “cost reduction and efficiency improvement”, management of large scale integrated property has unique advantages, including the following: (1) Scale effect promotes cost reduction Large-scale integrated property normally has a GFA of more than 500,000 sq.m. The scale effect can effectively reduce the material cost and labour cost per sq.m. under management of providing property management services. (2) High density is conducive to the provision of value-added services Large-scale integrated property normally has a high density in terms of population, which facilitates the provision of various value-added services. Many value-added services, such as housekeeping, childcare, elderly care, and other home services, rely heavily on population density, which can create a larger market for these value-added services and dilute the costs. (3) Synergy of diversified property types The large-scale integrated property has the characteristics of diversified property types. It normally contains residential properties and at least one type of non-residential properties, which enables the residents of the large-scale integrated property to enjoy various supporting services nearby. For example, commercial properties can provide residents with various shopping and entertainment services, and office properties can meet the residents’ needs for office space and properties with cultural and tourism characteristics can satisfy the residents’ recreational demands both physically and mentally, so as to increase their satisfaction and loyalty. Leveraging the interaction and coordination of residential and non-residential properties, property management companies can provide more diversified services to the residents with a smaller investment. Therefore, the diversified property types of the large-scale integrated property can create synergy across different types of properties and benefit the project as a whole. According to CIA, as at the end of 2020, the total GFA under management of the large-scale integrated property was 4.4 billion, sq.m. Among the China’s Top 100 Property Management Companies in 2020, the total GFA under management of the large-scale integrated property was 2.2 billion sq.m., accounted for 17.5% of the total GFA under management of the China’s Top 100 Property Management Companies. The total GFA of the large-scale integrated property under managed by the Top 100 Property Management Companies was 192 million sq.m in Southwest Region and 61 million sq.m in Chongqing. We are specialised in offering large-scale integrated property operational services. The GFA under management of our large-scale integrated property projects was 5.1 million sq.m., accounting for a majority of our total GFA under management. We were awarded the “2020 China Leading Property Management Companies in terms of Characteristic Service – Large-scale Integrated Property Operational Services” and “2021 China Leading Property Management Companies in terms of Characteristic Service – Large-scale Integrated Property Operational Services” by CIA.

THE IMPACT OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC The COVID-19 pandemic outbroke in late 2019 and continuously spread globally. According to CIA, The likelihood that the operations of property management companies in the PRC being suspended or terminated, the supply of materials being suspended or the management fee being reduced is very remote. The COVID-19 pandemic may bring certain short-term effects on the property management industry. Generally, the delivery of certain properties were delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the commencement of services of the property management companies was also delayed. In terms of residential properties, the anti-virus supplies and more frequent disinfections in the common areas increased the costs for property management companies. In addition, certain value-added services and the project sourcing activities were also affected by the social distancing measures. In terms of commercial operational services, the operation of certain commercial properties were suspended during the pandemic and many commercial property management companies reduced or waived the rents for the tenants. However, the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to bring limited impact on property management industry given that (i) the nature of anti-cyclical, anti-risk and policy supportive nature of the PRC property management industry limits the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; (ii) property management companies’ roles in implementing the quarantine measures increased its customer recognition and loyalty, which also partially improved the management fee collection rate; and (iii) the COVID-19 pandemic in the PRC mainly outbroke in the first two months of 2020 and the property market had gradually resumed since late February 2020. Although the COVID-19 pandemic caused certain short-term impact on the operations of properties management companies, in the long run, the COVID-19 pandemic also brings new opportunities for the development of the property management industry. On one hand, the quarantine measures promoted the development of smart community with intelligent management systems and stimulated the development of value-added services. On the other hand, property management companies played a significant role in combating the COVID-19 pandemic, which not only increased the customer recognition, loyalty and brand value. Government will enact supportive policies to relieve the impact of the pandemic, which will benefit property management companies. Property management companies also demonstrated their value in the management of non-residential properties such as public properties, schools and hospitals and further developed the market potential in non-residential properties management. TRENDS AND CHALLENGES Given the constant changes in the competitive landscape of the PRC property management and commercial operational industries, below are some of the main opportunities and challenges faced by the property management service providers: Increasing Market Concentration The degree of concentration of the property management industry has been increasing in recent years as large property management companies can steadily increase their GFA under management, better control their costs and realise revenues through offering value-added services. Large-scale property management companies actively accelerate their expansion by means of mergers and acquisitions of small and medium-sized property management companies in order to expand the scale of properties under management and realise economies of scale to improve their market position. Enhanced Standardisation and Automation An increasing number of leading companies are making efforts to enhance the standardisation of property management services, such as intelligent system in communities, including access control system car parking management system as well as smart shopping platforms and big data analysis platform. In addition, much more investment in intelligent technology was made to improve the efficiency of property management services. Technological solutions reduce human error and allow property management companies to consistently apply their standardised procedures and quality standards. In turn, this reduces their reliance on manual labour. Furthermore, centralised information technology enables property management companies to better apply policies, procedures and quality standards. Labour and Operational Cost The property management industry in the PRC is labour intensive. According to CIA, the average percentage of staff costs of the Top 100 Property Management Companies increased from 57.8% in 2018 to 58.3% in 2020. The minimum wage in various regions has increased in recent years. Property management companies need to recruit more staff to expand their property management scale and thus are expected to pay increasing staff salaries and benefits, as well as relevant training and management expenses.

According to CIA, the ever-rising labour costs in recent years is a major challenge to the players in the labour-intensive property management industry to maintain sustainable development. The players may experience a decrease in profit margin, or even experience losses, in light of increases in costs and expenses. Increasing Demand for Professional Staff With the rapid technology developments, property management companies need to recruit more qualified professional talents with management and technological skills. Property management companies also increasingly demand trained professional and skilled employees to facilitate the implementation of smart management and information technologies to maintain their leading market positions. COMPETITION Competition of the Property Management Industry Overview According to CIA, the property management market in the PRC is fragmented and competitive and is gradually under consolidation. The differentiation of property management companies at different levels is intensifying. As at 31 December 2020, there were approximately 200,000 property management companies in the PRC. Large-scale property management companies gained more advantages in recent years as they experienced fast growth in GFA under management. Major property management companies in the PRC have also experienced continuous improvement in profitability due to their steadily increased GFA under management, better cost control and realisation of revenues through offering value-added services. Entry barriers Brand — As the consumers’ demand for higher quality of project management services is increasing and the industry competition is intensifying, solid operating history, good market reputation and brand image and high service quality are required for property management companies. Therefore, the brand has become an important barrier for the property management industry. Capital requirement — With the expansion of scale of management, property management companies are paying more attention to investing in automation and artificial intelligence, so as to improve management efficiency by purchasing equipment to replace labour, build enterprise information management systems and gradually promoting smart community. The transition of property management industry from labour-intensive to technology and capital-intensive requires a higher level of financial resources. Management — With the continuous intensifying competition of the property management industry, the management team and its management experience and capability have gradually become an important factor in the core competitiveness of property management companies. Excellent property management companies have their own characteristics in terms of property management services categories, information system application, and financial management, which provide them with significant advantage in sourcing larger scale projects. Specialised talents and technology — The ability in recruiting and retaining a variety of middle and senior management talents and professional technical personnel and establishing a stable long-term talent training mechanism are crucial for the successful operation of property management companies. In addition, with the application of big data and Internet technology, property management companies are exploring innovative business models and value-added services, which further emphasises the role of specialised talents. Risks in relation to Property Management Industry In the course of providing property management services, property management companies may be exposed to certain risks, which include but not limited to (i) the intensified market competition; (ii) the failure in cost management; (iii) the concentration of source of properties under management; (iv) the increase of labour costs; (v) the shortage of specialised talents; (vi) the increase of internal management costs due to merger and acquisition; and (vii) public health incidents such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Please refer to the section headed “Risk Factors – Risks Relating to our Business and Industry” in this document for further details.

Competition of the Commercial Operational Industry Overview The commercial operational market is relatively fragmented. Entry Barriers Service experience — Due to increasing concentration of China’s commercial operational service market, mature operation, professional management experience and successful project experience are particularly important for commercial operational service providers to shape their brand image. Furthermore, in terms of large-scale and integrated shopping centres with various tenant mix, rich and mature management experience has a guiding role for the commercial operational service team in the actual operation and management process, which is one of the entry barriers to new entrants. Brand and Customer Bases — Existing participants in China’s commercial operational service market require a sufficient customer base to establish brand reputation. Due to increasing competition and concentration of China’s commercial operational service market, tenants and consumers have a preference to renowned and experienced commercial operational service providers with reputable brand names. Therefore, new entrants will face great challenges to attract consumers and establish their own customer bases. Professional Talents – Owing to expanding service scope and complexity, professional and experienced talents are required in specific segments of the commercial operational services, which often involve technical knowledge and expertise regarding the operations of certain non-residential properties or value-added services. Moreover, under the developing trend of providing diversified and differentiated services, there will be higher requirements for the technology and innovation level in the commercial operational service market. Therefore, it could be difficult for new entrants to recruit adequate number of talents with the necessary skills and experiences. Risks in relation to Commercial Operational Industry In the course of providing commercial operational services, property management companies may be exposed to certain risks, which include but not limited to (i) the intensified market competition; (ii) the inappropriate positioning of the commercial properties; and (iii) the shortage of specialised talents. Please refer to the section headed “Risk Factors – Risks Relating to our Business and Industry” in this document for further details. Competitive Landscape CIA has published the ranking of China’s Top 100 Property Management Companies in terms of overall strength, primarily by evaluating data from previous years in relation to management scale, operating performance, service quality, social responsibility and development potential. According to CIA, we ranked: (i) the 50th among the 2021 Top 100 Property Management Companies in terms of overall strength; (ii) the 55th among the 2020 Top 100 Property Management Companies in terms of overall strength; (iii) the 36th among the 2020 Top 100 Property Management Companies in terms of total GFA under management of large-scale integrated property; (iv) the 10th among the 2020 Top 100 Property Management Companies in terms of total GFA under management of large-scale integrated property located in Southwest Region; and (v) the 4th among the 2020 Top 100 Property Management Companies in terms of total GFA under management of large-scale integrated property located in Chongqing.

REGULATORY OVERVIEW provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, in concert with the competent departments of real estate.

Pursuant to the Administrative Measures, as agreed between the property owners and property management enterprise, the fees for property management services can be charged either as lump sum basis (包幹制), in which case property owners pay fixed property management fees to property management enterprise who shall enjoy all the profits or assume losses as its own risk, or as commission basis (酬金制), in which case property management enterprise may collect its service fees in the proportion or amount as agreed from the property management income in advance, the rest of which shall be exclusively used on the items as stipulated in the property management contract, and property owners shall enjoy the surplus or assume the shortage. Property management enterprises shall, pursuant to the applicable rules of the competent price departments under governments, clearly mark the prices of property services, and publish in a prominent position along with the information about services, criteria of services, charging items, charging criteria, etc.

According to the Administrative Measures and the relevant local regulations, where property service charges are priced under government guidance, the competent price government department together with the competent real estate department shall set the benchmark prices and the range of variations, depending on such factors as (i) types of property, which may include high-rise buildings with elevators and low-rise buildings without elevators, (ii) types of service provided, which may specify different types of services, such as landscaping, repairment and maintenance for common areas and elevator maintenance and (iii) the grading criteria of property service. For example, in Chongqing, the service charges on preliminary property management for residential properties, within the scope of the Chongqing Municipal Residential Property Service Grade Standards (重慶市住宅物業服務等級標準) (the “Standards”), shall be subject to the government guidance prices, while providing services that exceed the scope of the Standards can be adjusted by the market prices. However, due to types of property, the existing condition of the local property management market and local government departments’ policies with respect to the property management market, the government guidance prices in different cities or areas may vary.

According to the Circular of the NDRC on the Opinions for Decontrolling the Prices of Some Services (國家發展改革委關於放開部分服務價格意見的通知), which was promulgated by the NDRC on 17 December 2014 and came into effect on the same date, the competent price departments of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities shall perform procedures to liberalise the prices of the following types of services that have met the conditions for competition (i) property services of non-government-supported houses, including fees charged by a property management enterprise from property owners for the maintenance, conservation and management of non-government-supported houses, the supporting facilities, the equipment and the relevant sites thereof, activities of maintaining the environment, sanitation and order inside the property management regions and other actions completed in accordance with the agreement of the property service contract, upon the commission of the property owners; (ii) parking services in residential communities.

An enterprise shall, according to its operating condition and related tax provisions, independently determine whether it satisfies the conditions required for enterprise income tax preferences. Those who meet the conditions may independently calculate the tax deductions or exemptions according to the time listed in the Catalogue for the Administration of Enterprise Income Tax Preferences (Revision 2017) (企業所 得稅優惠事項管理目錄(2017年版)), and enjoy tax incentives by filing enterprise income tax returns.

Pursuant to the Arrangement Between the Mainland of China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation on Income and Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with respect to Taxes on Income (內地和香港特別行政區關於對所得避免雙重徵稅和防止偷漏稅的安排) (the “Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement”) promulgated on 21 August 2006 and applicable in Hong Kong to income derived in any year of assessment commencing on or after 1 April 2007 and in mainland China to any year commencing on or after 1 January 2007, if a Hong Kong resident enterprise is determined by the competent PRC tax authority to have satisfied the relevant conditions and requirements under the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement, the withholding tax rate on the dividends the Hong Kong resident enterprise receives from a PRC resident enterprise may be reduced to 5%. However, based on the Notice of the SAT on Certain Issues Concerning the Enforcement of Dividend Provisions in Tax Treaties (國家稅務總局關於執 行稅收協定股息條款有關問題的通知), which was promulgated and took into effect on 20 February 2009, by the SAT, if the relevant PRC tax authorities determine, in their discretion, that a company benefits from such reduced income tax rate due to a tax-driven structure or arrangement, such PRC tax authorities are entitled to adjust the preferential tax treatment.

Enterprise Income Tax on Indirect Transfer of Non-Resident Enterprises

On 10 December 2009, the SAT issued the Circular on Strengthening the Administration of Enterprise Income Tax Concerning Proceeds from Equity Transfers by Non-Resident Enterprises (國家稅務總局關於加強非居民企業股權轉讓所得企業所得稅管理的通知) (the “Circular 698”). By implementing Circular 698, the PRC tax authorities have enhanced their scrutiny over the indirect transfer of equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise by a non-resident enterprise. The SAT further issued the Circular on Several Issues Concerning Enterprise Income Tax for Indirect Transfers of Assets by Non-Resident Enterprises (國家稅務總局關於非居民企業間接轉讓 財產企業所得稅若干問題的公告) (the “Circular 7”) on 3 February 2015, to supersede existing provisions in relation to the indirect transfer as set forth in the Circular 698. The Circular 7 introduces a new tax regime that is significantly different from that under the Circular 698. According to the Circular 7, a non-resident enterprise indirectly transfers equities and other assets of a PRC resident enterprise to avoid the EIT payment obligation by making an arrangement with no reasonable business purpose, such indirect transfer shall be redefined and recognised as a direct transfer in accordance with the provisions of the EIT Law. Where the enterprise income tax on the income from the indirect transfer of real estate or indirect transfer of equities shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of the Circular 7, the entity or individual that directly assumes the obligation to make relevant payments to the transferor according to the provisions of the relevant laws or as agreed upon in the contract shall be the withholding agent.

On 17 October 2017, the SAT promulgated the Circular on Issues Concerning the Withholding of Enterprise Income Tax at Source on Non-Resident Enterprises (國家稅務總局關於 非居民企業所得稅源泉扣繳有關問題的公告) (the “SAT Circular 37”), which came into force and replace the Circular 698 and certain other regulations on 1 December 2017.

The consideration was determined after arm’s length negotiation with reference to (i) the total ownership interest of Chongqing Xintianyuan as at 31 March 2021, (ii) the operations and profitability of Chongqing Xintianyuan and (iii) the value of the comparable companies. Upon completion of such equity transfer, Chongqing Xintianyuan became owned as to 51% by Chongqing Ronghui PM and 49% by Mr. Zhu Xiaopeng. As at the Latest Practicable Date, RMB5.0 million of the total consideration was settled in cash.

DISPOSAL OF CERTAIN PRC COMPANIES

1. Disposal of Fuzhou Huixiang Information Technology Co., Ltd. (福州匯享信息技術有限 公司) (“Fuzhou Huixiang”)

Fuzhou Huixiang was established in the PRC as a limited liability company on 15 October 2014. Prior to the disposal detailed below, it was held as to 20% by Fuzhou Ronghui and 80% by Mr. Pei Luyang. Fuzhou Huixiang was not engaged in any business prior to its disposal.

Taking into account that the expected future business of Fuzhou Huixiang would not be in line with our business development strategy and not related to the core business of our Group, on 20 January 2021, Fuzhou Ronghui transferred its 20% equity interest in Fuzhou Huixiang to Ms. Wong Fung Chun, the sister of Mr. Wong, at a consideration of RMB1, which was determined after arm’s length negotiation taking into account that none of the registered capital was paid as at the date of transfer. Such consideration had been fully settled as at the Latest Practicable Date. Upon completion of such transfer, Fuzhou Ronghui ceased to hold any equity interest in Fuzhou Huixiang.

2. Disposal of Wuhu Ronghui Property Management Co., Ltd. (蕪湖融匯物業管理有限公司) (“Wuhu Ronghui PM”)

Wuhu Ronghui PM was established in the PRC as a limited liability company on 22 September 2005. Prior to the disposal detailed below, it was wholly owned by Wuhu Ronghui Properties Co., Ltd. (蕪湖融匯置業有限公司)(“Wuhu Ronghui Properties”). Wuhu Ronghui Properties is owned as to 61% by Ronghui Fujian and 39% by a company controlled by Mr. Wong. Wuhu Ronghui PM was primarily engaged in property management business prior to its disposal.

Given Wuhu Ronghui PM only managed two projects with a total GFA of approximately 77,908.6 sq.m and contributing less than 2% of our total revenue for the year ended 31 December 2020, its size of operations is inconsistent with our scale of operations that we have built and maintained in other regions. In addition, with such small scale operation, it is difficult for Wuhu Ronghui PM to enjoy any cost optimization. In light of the above, on 9 February 2021, Wuhu Ronghui Properties transferred its entire equity interest in Wuhu Ronghui PM to Zheng Lidong, an Independent Third Party, at a consideration of RMB1, which was determined after arm’s length negotiation with reference to its net liability value as at 31 December 2020 and which had been fully settled as at the Latest Practicable Date. Upon completion of such transfer, Wuhu Ronghui Properties ceased to hold any equity interest in Wuhu Ronghui PM.

As confirmed by our Directors, each of Fuzhou Huixiang and Wuhu Ronghui PM had not been involved in any material non-compliance incidents or material legal, regulatory, arbitral or administrative proceedings, investigations or claims before its disposal.

As confirmed by our PRC Legal Advisors, the relevant SAIC procedures and steps involved in the aforesaid disposals had been properly and legally completed.

According to Article 2 of the M&A Rules, “merger and acquisition of domestic enterprises by foreign investors” referred to in the M&A Rules shall mean that a foreign investor purchases the equity interest of a shareholder in a domestic non-foreign-invested enterprise (“domestic company”) or subscribes for increased capital of a domestic company so as to convert such domestic company into a foreign-invested enterprise; or, a foreign investor establishes a foreign-invested enterprise, through which it purchases and operates the assets of a domestic enterprise by agreement, or, a foreign investor purchases the assets of a domestic enterprise by agreement and then invests such assets to establish a foreign invested enterprise and operates the assets.

According to CIA, large-scale integrated property refers to a real estate project that contains residential properties and at least one type of non-residential properties with an aggregate GFA of more than 500,000 sq.m. that has integrated functions, such as residential and commercial consumption. Therefore, the large-scale integrated property is a concept in terms of both scale and property types.

We believe large-scale integrated properties can optimise our cost management and create synergy between our property management and commercial operational services. Our large-scale integrated properties provide larger GFA under management for a single project covering residential and non-residential properties which reduced the number of on-site personnel and project managers required per GFA under management. Large-scale integrated property gathers residents and commercial brands and creates a cluster effect, which allows us to achieve cost optimisation through centralised allocation of management resources between property management and commercial operation. In addition, with the support of our commercial operational services, the large-scale integrated properties that we manage offer a wide range of services such as retail, catering, parent-child activities and entertainment to our community and provide the residents with diversified, convenient and high quality community living experience, so as to increase their satisfaction and loyalty. Residents from the large scale integrated properties may also be the anchored customer base for our community value added services. On the other hand, the stable customer traffic from the residents of our large-scale integrated properties provide the incentive for tenants to establish their business at the commercial properties under our management, which will help increase the occupancy rate of the commercial properties of the large-scale integrated property and benefit the growth of our revenue.

In 2020, the management fee collection rate and retention rate under our general property management services was 94.5% and 100%, respectively. The customer satisfaction rate under our property management services in 2020 was 86.6%, which was 6.3% higher than the average level in the industry.

Commercial Operational Information System

We have an internal commercial operational management platform that enables the recording of data collected from our services, covering tenant sourcing, agreement signing, merchant entry, merchant operations and financial settlement. It establishes a commercial database and combines the commercial data from services we provide to formulate standardised commercial operational procedures. By fully utilising the commercial operational management platform, we are able to increase average GFA under management per staff, reduce staff costs and offline communication costs, enhance the accuracy and time-effectiveness of data as well as improve the efficiency of our management in decision making, thus achieving more cost-efficient commercial operational services.

Growth opportunities derived from the long-term, strategic and cooperative relationship with Ronghui Group

We have a long-term, strategic and cooperative relationship with Ronghui Group and we can benefit from the growth of real estate business of Ronghui Group. Ronghui Group has over 17 years of property development experience and has comprehensive business offerings covering various industries, such as real estate, hotel management, construction engineering, landscape engineering and chemical industry.

OUR STRATEGIES

Reinforce our market position in key regions and further develop our business through enlarging our business scale, expanding in regions with strong growth potential and further optimising our project portfolio

We will continue to leverage our long-term, strategic and cooperative relationship with Ronghui Group. We plan to maintain the high tender success rate for properties developed by Ronghui Group primarily through improving our service capabilities in relation to a wide variety of property types and enhancing our mutual understanding with Ronghui Group based on our long-standing cooperative relationship and proven track record.

We will focus on key cities in Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Zone, Bohai Rim Economic Zone and Western Taiwan Straits Economic Zone, such as Chongqing, Jinan, Fuzhou and other provincial capital cities in these regions. We plan to further expand our business to other major cities in Sichuan, Guizhou, Fujian, Gansu and Shandong provinces. These cities are close to the areas we currently operate and we believe we can better utilise our existing resources and experience in exploring the business opportunities in these cities. In addition to our expansion through strategic acquisition, investment and cooperation with other major developers, we will continue to actively collect and select bidding and tendering opportunities. Through our professional business development team, we will evaluate extensive potential target projects and prepare tendering plans based on our internal risk and profitability requirements.

We plan to further improve our business development team by setting up investment and business development centre at group level and market investment and development departments in our regional companies, composed of members with professional experience in property market development. Our business development team will be in charge of market channels exploration, target project information collection and selection, business communication, project calculation and evaluation, bidding materials preparation, bidding-related procedures management and internal approval and signing of Independent Third Party contracts. We may also establish new subsidiaries or set up new branches in the target regions to undertake new projects for business development. We provide attractive incentive to our employees for valid market intelligence and successful Independent Third Party projects. We offer a fixed amount award for the business development team or individual for each project introduced to and approved by the Group. We also provide a percentage of the amount receivable for the first year as incentive if we successfully enter into agreement for such project. We plan to further explore opportunities in managing properties developed by Independent Third Party developers through our diversified market information channels, including governmental bidding and procurement websites, local property owners associations, local industry associations, suppliers and Independent Third Party developers which have existing business relationship with us.

Further expand our business operations through strategic acquisitions and investments

Leveraging our proven track record and extensive experience in the industry, we plan to further expand and diversify our business through strategic acquisitions and investments. We plan to prioritise potential investment or acquisition targets with business in the core cities in Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Zone, Bohai Rim Economic Zone and Western Taiwan Strait Economic Zone or with diversified property portfolio such as residential properties, commercial properties, cultural and tourism properties, industrial parks, schools, hospitals and public properties. Through investment and acquisition of these potential targets, we expect to expand our geographical coverage, strengthen our competitiveness in these regions, diversify our property portfolio and promote our brand awareness.

Our existing management projects are located in Chongqing, Jinan, and Fuzhou. Through years of efforts, our services have gained good reputation and market recognition in these regions. We believe potential investment and acquisition targets with business in Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Zone, Bohai Rim Economic Zone and Western Taiwan Strait Economic Zone can help us to continue to expand in these regions, enter into the markets of surrounding cities and create regional scale effect to improve our management efficiency. In addition, according to CIA, these regions are considered as the key economic development zones of China, with high economic growth. The real estate development market in these regions continues to develop and there is a sizable housing market, which creates greater demand for property management services.

For our property management services, we plan to selectively evaluate potential target companies with business in Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Zone, Bohai Rim Economic Zone and Western Taiwan Strait Economic Zone, primarily taking into account certain evaluation criteria, including but not limited to:

• companies that have an aggregated GFA under management of over 800,000 sq.m. or annual net profit margin of over 8.0% in the latest financial year; or

• companies with diversity in the portfolio of managed properties such as residential properties, commercial properties, cultural and tourism properties, industrial parks, schools, hospitals and public properties.

For our commercial operational services, we plan to selectively evaluate potential target companies that have business focus in Chongqing, Jinan or Fuzhou, primarily taking into account certain evaluation criteria, including but not limited to:

• companies that have an aggregated contracted GFA of 50,000 sq.m. or above or annual net profit margin of 15.0% or above in the latest financial year; or

• companies that manage diversified commercial property portfolio such as shopping malls or shopping streets or companies that manage commercial projects which have high growth potential.

We also plan to strategically acquire or invest companies that can create synergy effect with our community value-added services and smart management system. Strategic acquisitions and investments in these companies with synergies enable us to save the time and cost required to develop our downstream businesses. Through these acquisitions and investments, we can expand our business scope to cover the entire property management and value-added services value chain, so that we can provide comprehensive services to meet customer needs, improve customer satisfaction and improve our market reputation. We plan to selectively evaluate potential target companies in this regard, primarily taking into account certain evaluation criteria, including but not limited to:

• companies that have business focus on community value-added services and smart management platform, such as smart community, health and elderly care, catering and housekeeping; or

• companies that have stable customer base and cash flow; or

• companies that have well-developed management system.

We believe that we will be able to further diversify our services, broaden our geographical coverage, and enhance our market position through strategic acquisitions and investments.

We plan to use [REDACTED]% of the [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED]in acquisition and strategic investments. As at the Latest Practicable Date, we had not identified any potential investment acquisition target or entered into any definite investment or acquisition agreement. In addition to the aforementioned criteria, in evaluating potential investment or acquisition targets, we are also inclined to invest in those that possess a competent management team, proven track record, and good reputation in the industry with good compliance record.

Develop other diversified value-added services to improve our value-added services penetration rate and continue to upgrade our existing value-added services

We believe the key to our success is the delivery of satisfying customer experience. We intend to develop new value-added services and continue improving customer experience through further diversifying and enhancing the value-added services we provide.

We plan to develop other value-added services based on our residents’ need and the orientation of policies, primarily through:

• Health and elderly care. We plan to identify appropriate venues in or around our community and set up health and elderly care centres. We also plan to provide home elderly care services that combine medical care and elderly care. A majority of the projects managed by us are large-scale integrated properties and the project area is highly concentrated, which creates greater customer needs for the establishment of a health care centre in the community. We believe that the health care industry has a good development prospect and a wide range of social needs, which can provide long-term benefits while improving the convenience and satisfaction of residents in our community.

• Community catering. We plan to identify appropriate venues in or around the community and set up community restaurants to provide healthy meals for property owners, residents and other customers. We believe that there is continuous demand for the catering industry.

We plan to enhance our brand image through various marketing initiatives and strategic cooperation with other developers and famous brands. We believe that such marketing efforts will help us build greater customer recognition, enhance brand awareness, and improve our brand image which may, in turn, foster stronger customer loyalty to our brand.

We plan to cooperate with other real estate developers, branded merchants and other cultural tourism brands to improve our brand awareness and image. Through strengthening our marketing and promotion efforts of operating private media channels and WeChat official account as well as participating in property management related summits, exchanges and conferences, we aim to improve our brand image and increase brand awareness. We also plan to strategically cooperate with other well-known brands in non-real estate industries to improve our customers’ overall household experience from the perspective of innovative and differentiated services. For example, we plan to (i) cooperate with well-known takeaway food suppliers for community supply; (ii) cooperate with well-known brand merchants in neighbouring communities to enjoy unique discounts; and (iii) cooperate with other cultural tourism attractions to promote synergy between our residential and cultural tourism projects.

For our property management services, our total GFA under management for projects solely developed by independent third party developers grew from 43,092.5 sq.m. as at 31 December 2018 to 118,423.0 sq.m. as at 31 December 2020. Revenue generated from managing projects solely developed by Independent Third Party property developers remain stable from 2018 to 2020, primarily due to the fact that we ceased to provide property management services to a residential property developed by Independent Third-Party developer in 2019 due to our management fee proposal for providing the required standard of services was not accepted by the relevant property owners’ association and began to provide property management services to industrial parks in 2019 which have relatively lower property management fees per sq.m. We also had five projects under management developed by a joint venture of Ronghui Group with an aggregate GFA of 525,717.3 sq.m. as at 31 December 2020, and with an aggregate revenue of RMB17.8 million in 2020.

Property Management Services Provided by our Joint Venture Company

During the Track Record Period, we also provided property management services through Funeng Ronghui, our joint venture company. The following table sets forth the number of properties and GFA managed by Funeng Ronghui, as well as the number of properties Funeng Ronghui contracted to manage and corresponding contracted GFA as at the dates indicated.

The properties managed by Funeng Ronghui are sourced from our joint venture partner of Funeng Ronghui, which is an Independent Third Party. During the Track Record Period, the biddings participated by Funeng Ronghui was five, the bidding successful rate of Funeng Ronghui was approximately 80%. The average property management fee per sq.m. of the properties managed by Funeng Ronghui was RMB1.19, RMB1.42 and RMB1.35 in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively.

Property Management Service Agreements

Residential Properties

We generally enter into preliminary property management service agreements with residential property developers at the construction and pre-delivery stage of property development projects. A preliminary property management service agreement governs property management services we provide to owners and residents of properties that have already been delivered but for which the property owners’ associations have not entered into a new property management agreement. During the Track Record Period, a majority of our revenue from general property management services was generated from preliminary property management service agreements entered into with property developers. We also typically enter into preliminary property management service agreements with individual property owners at the time of sales of properties to confirm the terms as set out in the preliminary property management service agreements entered into between the property developer and us, pursuant to which the individual property owners are required to pay the property management fee after the delivery of the relevant properties.

In relation to properties that have already been delivered and for which property owners’ associations have been established, we enter into property management service agreements with property owners’ associations acting on behalf of property owners.

Contractual relationship

Non-residential Properties

We generally obtain the general property management service agreements for non-residential properties through business negotiations at arm’s length with the property developers or property owners. A property management service agreement for non-residential properties governs general property management services we provide to non-residential property developers before property delivery and/or to property owners after property delivery. During the Track Record Period, we provided general property management services to 9, 10 and 12 non-residential properties in 2018, 2019 and 2020 with GFA under management of 0.5 million sq.m., 0.6 million sq.m. and 0.7 million sq.m., respectively.

Property Management Fees

We charge property management fees on a lump sum basis during the Track Record Period where we act as the principal provider of property management services, and recognise the entire amount received or receivable as our revenue, and all related costs as cost of sales, over the service period.

– 149 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

Lump Sum Basis

Under the lump sum basis, we charge a fixed property management fee per sq.m. of GFA under management on a regular basis which represents an all-inclusive fee for all property management services provided by us and our third-party subcontractors. In general we are entitled to retain the full amount of property management fees received from property developers, property owners and residents as revenue and we also bear costs incurred in providing our property management service as our cost of sales. If the property management fees we charge during the term of property management service agreements are not sufficient to cover all the costs incurred, we bear the loss and may not request property developers, property owners or residents to pay us the shortfall. According to CIA, the lump sum basis is the primary fee model for property management services in China.

In 2018, 2019 and 2020, we incurred losses of RMB1.4 million, RMB1.8 million and RMB0.9 million, respectively, with respect to seven, six and three properties under our management, respectively. For these projects, the amount of property management fees we received was insufficient to cover the service costs incurred to offer quality property management services. The reasons for incurring losses for these properties include (i) we started to provide property management services to certain of these properties earlier than other properties we manage and the then market price of property management fee was relatively low and (ii) the dispersed layout of certain of these properties increased our labour costs. We plan to turn around our operations in relation to these properties by (i) actively communicating with the relevant property developers or property owners’ associations to renegotiate our fee rates upon renewal of the relevant property management service agreements; (ii) further streamlining our business operations and improving the efficiency of our employees as well as enhancing the levels of standardisation through our smart management information and automated technology systems; (iii) promoting community value-added services in those properties, which typically generate higher profit margins than general property management services; (iv) implementing cost saving measures such as sub-contracting certain property management functions to external contractors. Our revenue from property management services from such loss-making properties was approximately RMB17.5 million, RMB15.7 million and RMB9.3 million in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, representing 8.8%, 7.0% and 3.9% of our total revenue for the same periods, respectively. Pleases refer to the section headed “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry—We may be subject to losses and our profit margins may decrease if we fail to control our costs in rendering our property management services on a lump sum basis” in this document.

– 150 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

Commission Basis

During the Track Record Period, we did not derive revenue from property management services agreements on a commission basis. Property management fees charged on a commission basis normally recognise a predetermined property management commission fee, generally representing a percentage of the property management fees, as revenue, while the remainder serves as working capital to cover the property management costs and expenses we incurred in providing the property management services. Any excess or shortfall of the property management fees (after deducting the relevant expenses) belong to or are borne by the property owners, property developers or residents from whom the property management companies receive the property management fees.

Our Pricing Policy

We generally price our services based on a number of factors, including (i) local regulatory requirements or guidelines for property management fees; (ii) types, sizes and locations of the properties; (iii) the prevailing market price of the local market; (iv) our estimated costs and expenses and target profit margin; (vi) the scope and quality of our services. Under the property management service agreements, we may raise property management fees upon renewal of the agreements as approved by a requisite number of property owners in accordance with relevant PRC laws and regulations.

We are also subject to pricing control issued by the PRC government. In December 2014, the NDRC issued the Circular of NDRC on the Opinion on Liberalising Price Controls in Certain Services《國家發展和改革委員會關於放開部分服務價格意見的通知》 ( ) which requires provincial-level price administration authorities to liberalise the price control guidance policies on residential properties, with certain exceptions. Please refer to the section headed “Regulatory Overview—Regulations on the Fees Charged by the Property Management Enterprise” in this document.

(2) Refers to properties jointly developed by Ronghui Group and independent third-party property developers in which Ronghui Group did not hold a controlling interest.

(3) Refers to properties developed solely by Independent Third Party property developers.

(4) In 2018 and 2019, we provided property management services to a residential property developed by an Independent Third Party property developer. The property management fee per sq.m. for this project was lower than our other projects because this project was developed in 2001 and the starting point of the property management fee at that time was much lower than our average property management fee for residential properties during the Track Record Period. In July 2019, we did not renew our property management service agreement with the property owners’ association of such property and ceased to provide property management services to such property mainly due to the fact that the increased management fees we proposed for providing the required level of services were not accepted by the property owners’ association of such property.

(5) Refers to community stores managed by us, for which we charged a relatively low property management fee as compared with other non-residential properties developed by Ronghui Group due to their commercial property type and positioning.

(6) Refers to the non-residential properties developed by Independent Third Party property developers and managed by us, for which we charged a package fee instead of property management fee based on GFA under management.

As confirmed by CIA, the above average property management fees for residential and non-residential properties charged by our Group were comparable with industry peers operating in the same and/or proximity areas.

Payment and Credit Terms

Property management fees are generally due in advance on a monthly, quarterly or semi-annually basis in accordance with the agreement provisions and our management fees are charged on a lump sum basis.

We issue demand notes to property owners and/or property developers prior to payment due dates, and typically receive payments of our property management service fees after the issuance of the demand note, which, according to CIA, is consistent with the property management industry norm in the PRC.

We primarily accept payments for property management fees through bank transfers, online payment platforms and cash. We adopt different collection approaches, such as making phone calls, sending text messages, paying in-person visits, issuing legal collection letters and filing lawsuits.

If the property management fees become past due, we may call, text or send written notice to such customers to follow up, and may have our attorneys send demand letters to such customers. We may impose overdue fees for the overdue management fees. If the outstanding fees remain unpaid for more than three months, we may file a lawsuit against such customer to claim the outstanding amounts.

Notes:

(1) Primarily includes (i) preliminary property management service agreements entered into with property developers for new properties; and (ii) property management service agreements for residential properties that replaced their previous property management companies. The renewed agreements are not regarded as new engagements entered into during such year. The GFA under management includes the newly delivered GFA we contracted in prior years.

(2) Primarily arose out of non-renewal of certain property management service agreements.

In 2018, 2019 and 2020, the retention rate of the properties we manage was 97.7%, 97.7% and 100%, respectively, which we believe reflect our capabilities in offering quality property management services. During the Track Record Period, we did not renew two property service agreements for residential properties after their expiration, which was mainly due to the fact that management fees we proposed for providing the required level of services were not accepted by the respective property owners’ associations and our decision to reallocate resources to more profitable engagements, or as a result of the delivery of the project to government.

Obtaining Property Management Service Agreements

During the Track Record Period, we generally obtained preliminary property management service agreements by participating in tender and bidding, a process where property developers and property owners’ associations evaluate and select from multiple property management service providers. The flow chart below illustrates each stage of our typical tender and bidding process for obtaining preliminary property management service contracts:

Receiving invitation or notice regarding the tender process or bidding opportunity

Establishing project team responsible for the tender and bidding

Submitting documents for pre-qualification

Preparing budgets based on the details of the property

Submitting tender bids setting out our plans, costs qualifications and others

Tender evaluation process

Receiving notice of tender awarding or rejection

Signing of the property management service agreements if awarded tender or analysing reasons if rejected

Tender invitations are usually issued by property developers for properties under development, or from property owners’ associations for properties that wish to replace their existing property management service provider. After receiving the tender invitations, we submit tender documents to the property developer or property owners’ associations which generally include proposed pricing, proposal and plan for property management and other information as specified by the tender invitation.

In considering the proposed project, we will conduct a market analysis of the area and obtain key information, such as the infrastructure and property development plans in the vicinity, the demography in the region and the local government policy, etc. We then assess factors such as the expected rate of return, property type and size, competition for the project. We will then compile a property management proposal comprising and/or taking into account the following: (i) scope of services to be provided; (ii) number of staff required; (iii) standard and quality of services appropriate for the property; (iv) scope of any value-added services; (v) facilities available within the property; (vi) the stage of the property development.

– 156 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

We may be required to provide pre-qualification documents for vetting before submitting the formal tender documents. The property developers and property owners’ associations will then evaluate the tenders received, and select the winner based on factors such as reputation, quality of service, management system, human resources management and the proposed management plan. After winning the tenders, we enter into property management service agreements with the relevant property developers and property owners’ associations, and then file the agreements with the relevant authorities where applicable under PRC laws and regulations. During the Track Record Period, the success rate of our tender bids for preliminary property management contracts in respect of properties developed by Ronghui Group and its joint ventures and associates was 100.0%. During the Track Record Period, we participated in 22 tender and bidding processes for properties developed by Independent Third Party property developers and achieved a tender success rate of 23%. We achieved low tender success rate during the Track Record Period primarily because we were in the stage of optimising our internal incentive mechanism for our business development personnel and other employees for successful biddings and enhancing the experience in bidding for projects developed by Independent Third Party property developers of our business development team. Going forward, for the purpose of increasing tender success rate for properties developed by Independent Third Party property developers, we (i) have developed a specific professional business development team to bid for projects developed by Independent Third Party property developers; (ii) plan to formulate internal incentives and assessment mechanisms to mobilise our employees and expand our project information data base; (iii) plan to co-operate with project partners in a form of associations and joint ventures to bid for projects; and (iv) plan to encourage our employees to obtain relevant qualifications and certificates in the property management industry to improve the competitiveness of our project proposals.

Under the PRC laws and regulations, property management companies are required to obtain preliminary property management service agreements for residential properties through tender processes unless a property is considered as a small-scale property, or there are fewer than three bidders, and in any of those cases, the developer may select and appoint property management companies with corresponding qualifications through direct negotiation with the approval of the real estate administrative department of the county level where the property is located.

The tender process requires a minimum of three bidders. Generally, approximately five to seven bidders participate in a tender process. For higher quality projects, the number of bidders could be even higher. The bidders other than ourselves are generally independent regional or national property management companies that possess the necessary qualifications to submit a bid for the tendering process. The tender process will be evaluated by a tender evaluation committee organised under the Interim Measures for Tender and Bidding Management for Preliminary Property Management《前期物業管理招標投標管理暫行辦法》 ( ) where neither the property developer nor we would be able to exert influence on the selection process. The tender evaluation committee shall consist of an odd number of at least five members, including: (i) at least a two-thirds majority of property management experts who are independent of the relevant developer and our Group and are selected on a random basis from a list of experts compiled by the local real estate administrative department; and (ii) the representative members from the property developer. In evaluating the bids, the tender evaluation committee would consider a number of factors, including reputation, quality of service, management system, human resources management and the proposed management plan.

During the Track Record Period, we procured all of our preliminary property management service agreements from property developers through (i) tender procedures regulated by applicable PRC laws or (ii) commercial negotiation pursuant to approvals obtained from relevant local authorities or otherwise not compulsorily required by applicable PRC laws. We had entered into two preliminary property management service agreements (the “Relevant Property Management Projects”) with Ronghui Group through commercial negotiation pursuant to approvals obtained from relevant local authorities. The total contracted GFA of the Relevant Property Management Projects is 52,667.1 sq.m. and accounted for 0.6% of our total contracted GFA as 31 December 2020. Revenue generated from the Relevant Property Management Projects amounted to RMB1.5 million, RMB2.0 million and RMB1.6 million in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, representing 0.7%, 0.9% and 0.7% of our total revenue during the same periods.

As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, the preliminary property management agreements of the Relevant Property Management Projects entered into with the developers directly with the approvals of the competent local authorities does not violate the tender process requirement under the Regulations on Property Management《物業管理條例》 ( ).

Key Terms of Agreements with Property Owners’ Associations and Property Owners

– 160 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

• Our rights and obligations. We are entitled to timely collection of property management fees as provided in the agreement. We may outsource certain services, but not the property services as a whole, to qualified subcontractors. We are in turn responsible for (i) providing the services included in the agreement; (ii) reporting material matters in relation to property management to all property owners and handling complaints in a timely manner; (iii) cooperating with the supervision by property developers, property owners and residents; (iv) inspecting the property upon delivery; (v) formulating property management plans and budget; (vi) monitoring property use and ensuring compliance with relevant laws and regulations; (vii) not changing the function of or occupying the common area without permission of the property owners and proper procedures; and (viii) collecting property management fees in accordance with relevant agreements and regulatory requirements.

The property owners’ association shall hold a general meeting to decide whether to renew the property management service agreement 90 days before its expiry date. If property owners’ association decides not to renew the agreement, it is typically responsible for delivering 60-day notices. The property management service agreement will terminate upon the new property management service agreement taking effect. If, upon the expiration of a preliminary property management service agreement, the property owners’ association has not entered into a new property management service agreement with us or other property management service provider, the property management service agreement will be renewed automatically until a new property management service agreement is entered into. We may be responsible for transitioning the property management work to our successor.

As at 31 December 2020, we provided property management services for five residential properties pursuant to our property management service agreements with property owners’ associations, which accounted for approximately 14.3% of the total number of residential properties under our management. The success rate of entering into property management agreements with property owners’ associations after the preliminary stage was 75% during the

– 161 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date. The property owners’ associations are independent from us. The property owners’ association may either hire new property management service providers through competitive bidding or enter into a contract with a property management service provider directly based on specified standards, such as terms and conditions of service, service quality and service price.

According to relevant PRC laws and regulations, it is not mandatory and there is no time limit for property owners to form a property owners’ association for both residential and non-residential properties. The election of property owners’ association and the selection, employment and dismissal of a property management service provider shall be subject to the approval by property owners who possess exclusive areas accounting for more than two-thirds of the total GFA and the said property owners shall account for more than two-thirds of the total number of the property owners. In the event that the property owners’ association has not entered into a new property management agreement, the preliminary property management contract entered into between the property developers and us at the pre-sale and pre-delivery stages (the “Preliminary Property Management Service Agreement”) would remain effective and bind the owners of the properties, who are obligated to pay the management fees directly to us. The Preliminary Property Management Service Agreement will be terminated when the property owners’ association is formed and a new property management agreement is entered into. If, upon the expiration of the initial term of the Preliminary Property Management Service Agreement, the property owners’ association has not been formed or a new property management agreement has not been entered into between the property owners’ association and us, (i) the Preliminary Property Management Service Agreement will be renewed automatically until a new property management agreement with the property owners’ association is entered into if there is applicable provision in the Preliminary Property Management Service Agreement to that effect, or (ii) in the absent of any automatic renewal provision, where property owners did not hire new service provider and we continued to provide property management services, property owners and residents are also legally obligated to pay property management fees directly to us for the services we continue to provide.

According to relevant PRC laws and regulations, the property owners’ association is elected by property owners, and represents their interests in matters concerning property management. The decisions of property owners’ association are binding on all property owners. Under the PRC laws and regulations, the agreements between property owners’ associations and property management companies hired according to the relevant laws and regulations by the general meeting are legally binding on property owners, even if the property owners are not themselves parties to such agreement. As a result, we have legal claims against property owners for accrued and outstanding property management fees.

During the Track Record Period, we continued to provide property management services to two projects whose property owners’ associations were dissolved during the terms of our contracts with them based on the terms and conditions as provided in the existing contracts. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, our revenue generated from these two projects were RMB5.9 million, RMB5.7 million and RMB5.7 million, respectively. As at the Latest Practicable Date, these two projects had not formed new property owners’ association. During the Track Record Period, we had three expired property management agreements with fixed term where we still continued to provide property management services and received property management fee after the expiration date of these agreements. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, our revenue generated from those

– 162 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS three projects were RMB12.1 million, RMB11.1 million and RMB11.1 million, respectively. As confirmed by our PRC Legal Advisors, under the PRC laws and regulations, so long as we provide property management services to the relevant properties, we are entitled to receive property management fee for the continued services we provide in accordance with the terms of the expired property management service agreement or such property management service agreements for which the property owners’ association has been dissolved.

Key Terms of Property Management Service Agreements for Non-residential Properties

We enter into property management service agreements with customers such as property owners and property developers for the management of non-residential properties. Our property management service agreements for non-residential properties typically include key terms which are generally consistent with the terms contained in property management service agreements in residential properties under our management, such as scope of services, performance standards, property management fees, the parties’ respective rights and obligations, terms of service and dispute resolutions.

Our Directors believe that the long history of business relationship between our Group and Ronghui Group has resulted in a well-established mutual understanding between the two groups.

During the Track Record Period, our tender success rate for preliminary property management agreement for properties developed by Ronghui Group was 100%. During the Track Record Period, all of the commercial properties and a substantial majority of the residential properties developed and owned by Ronghui Group are under our management. We believe that our relatively high tender success rate for properties developed by Ronghui Group was primarily attributable to (i) our service capabilities in relation to a wide variety of property types; (ii) our history of collaboration with Ronghui Group, which has built trust in our services and reduced costs related to communication and coordination; and (iii) mutual understanding as to each other’s quality standards and business operations, enabling us to provide services tailored to the values and needs of Ronghui Group. Our high retention rate during the Track Record Period also led to Ronghui Group relying on our support to promote their brand image by continuously delivering quality property management services to property owners and residents of its developed properties.

Notwithstanding the large number of property management and/or commercial operational service providers available in the market, we believe that it would not be in the best interest of Ronghui Group to select and engage such other service providers, considering the amount of time and resources required for seeking a comparable services provider and developing a mutually beneficial business relationship. Going forward, given the existing mutually beneficial and complementary business relationship, and considering the amount of time and effort potentially required by Ronghui Group to engage other service providers which could provide equally satisfactory services, we are of the view that we will continue to have a competitive advantage which distinguish us from our competitors and we believe we will continue to have a high success rate in securing future engagements from Ronghui Group.

In light of the above, our Directors consider that our relationship with Ronghui Group is mutually beneficial and complementary, and it is unlikely that the current business relationship between our Group and Ronghui Group would be materially adversely changed or terminated.

Business expansion with Independent Third Parties

We believe our extensive industry experience enables us to adapt to the features and conditions of various properties and to meet the differentiated requirements of Independent Third Party property developers. We have been actively exploring new project engagements and potential acquisition opportunities with Independent Third Parties through various channels, such as industry referrals, participation in tender and bidding processes and cooperation with third party business partners. Since 1 January 2021 and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we had secured new engagements to provide property management services and/or commercial operational services in respect of four properties developed by Independent Third Parties as follows:

(i) On 9 April 2021, we entered into a commercial operational service agreement for tenant sourcing services to Banan Yudong Old Street (巴南魚洞老街), a property located in Chongqing developed by Independent Third Party property developer with a total GFA available for tenant sourcing of 25,756.9 sq.m.

(ii) In May 2021, we acquired 51% equity interest in Chongqing Xintianyuan from Independent Third Parties. Please refer to the section headed “History, Reorganisation and Corporate Structure—Recent Acquisition” in this document for further information. Immediately before our acquisition, Chongqing Xintianyuan had three property management projects with a total GFA under management of approximately 851,248.9 sq.m.

In early 2021, we also signed two framework agreements with Independent Third Parties for strategic cooperations in respect of preliminary development, property management and commercial operational services for three tourism projects in various parts of the PRC.

Going forward, we shall continue our efforts in increasing the scale of our services provided to projects developed by independent third-party property developers through (i) the securing of new property management engagements by participation in the tendering and bidding process for the management of such properties organised by property owners’ associations and independent third-party property developers; (ii) identifying and acquiring suitable target property management companies; and (iii) the entering into of strategic cooperation arrangements with independent third- party property developers. Our Directors are confident of our ability in expanding our portfolio of projects developed by independent third-party property developers, in particular in respect of projects developed by independent third-party property developers of relatively smaller scale which are not supported by related property management services providers. We believe such property developers would welcome property management services and/or commercial operational services from a well-established from a reputable services provider such as our Group. Accordingly, we believe that our management portfolio and revenue attributable to Independent Third Parties will continue to increase.

SMART INFORMATION SYSTEMS

We are committed to provide quality services and believe that technology can drive operational efficiency and improve user experience. We have a property management information system and a commercial operational information system to improve operational efficiency and user experience.

Property Management Information System

Our property management information system primarily consists of two intelligent platforms.

(i) Intelligent Property Management Platform. Intelligent property management platform is the core platform of our property management information system. It integrates nine modules covering basic property information, general customer services, security patrolling, equipment and facilities patrolling, income management, quality control, inventory management, system management and financial reporting. We have a mobile application based on our intelligent property management platform for our staff, which integrates the functions such as customer reporting, task allocation, security patrolling, equipment and facilities patrolling and quality control. It allows our staff to have access to our core intelligent property management functions on-site, which significantly increases their efficiency. Based on our intelligent property management platform, we have also implemented an intelligent community facilities management system, which connects certain of our property management facilities and equipment with our intelligent property management platform. It provides intelligent functions such as intelligent car park management, intelligent entrance management and equipment and facilities online monitoring.

(ii) Xiaohui Dangjia (小匯當家) Smart Community Service Platform. We have implemented a customer-oriented smart community service platform leveraging Internet-of-Things (IoT) technologies, which we believe has enhanced our capabilities to improve customer experience, reduced reliance on manual labour and lowered operating costs. On 30 September 2019, we launched our Xiaohui Dangjia (小匯當家) App and completed its WeChat mini mobile application in 2020, which provides access through mobile application, WeChat official account and WeChat mini mobile application. The services we provide through our Xiaohui Dangjia smart community service platform primarily include online property management fee payment, repair and maintenance request, customer service hotline, remote door opening, visitor access, housekeeping services booking, customised travel plan booking and online supermarket. Through our Xiaohui Dangjia smart community service platform, we are able to gain better knowledge of our property owners’ and residents’ needs and enhance their satisfaction and loyalty.

Commercial Operational Information System

We have an internal commercial operational management platform that enables the recording of data collected from our services, covering tenant sourcing, agreement signing, merchant entry, merchant operations, merchant withdrawal and financial settlement. It establishes a commercial database and combines the commercial data from services we provide to formulate standardised commercial operational procedures. By fully utilising the commercial operational management platform, we are able to increase average GFA under management per staff, reduce staff costs and offline communication costs, enhance the accuracy and time-effectiveness of data as well as improve the efficiency of our management in decision making, thus achieving more cost-efficient commercial operational services.

According to the Administrative Measures on Internet Information Services (《互聯網信息服務管理辦法》) issued by the State Council which came into effect on 23 September 2000 and was revised on 8 January 2011, internet information services refer to the provision of information to web users through the internet, which can be divided into commercial internet information services and non-commercial internet services. Commercial Internet information services refer to paid services of providing information to or creating web pages for web users through the internet. Non-commercial internet information services refer to free services of providing public, commonly shared information to web users through the internet. Entities engaging in providing commercial internet information services shall apply for a licence for value-added telecommunication services of internet information services. As for the operations of non-commercial internet information services, only filings with the relevant authority of the PRC Government are required.

We completed the ICP filing for Xiaohui Dangjia App. As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, our services provided through Xiaohui Dangjia smart community service platform do not constitute commercial internet information services and we are not required to obtain an ICP licence.

Data Security and Privacy

We have adopted various internal control measures to ensure data security and privacy protection in relation to our internal operational data, as well as external data, such as customer data obtained through our information systems. We have showed the terms and conditions to customers and have also gained their prior consent before collecting their data.

During the Track Record Period, we did not experience any material delay, supply shortages or disruptions in our operations relating our suppliers, or any material product claims attributable to our suppliers. As at the Latest Practicable Date, save and except for Ronghui Group and its related parties, none of our Directors, their close associates or any Shareholders who, to the best knowledge of our Directors, owned more than 5% of our issued share capital had any interest in any of our five largest suppliers. We do not have any long-term agreements with our top five suppliers. We typically enter into one-year agreements with our suppliers and renew them after negotiations. Payments to suppliers are typically settled by month via bank transfers.

SUBCONTRACTING

We outsource certain labour-intensive services and specialised services, primarily including cleaning, gardening, garbage disposal, security and repair and maintenance services, to subcontractors, which enables us to reduce our operating and labour costs, improve service quality and dedicate more resources to management and other value-added services. We believe such subcontracting arrangements allow us to leverage the human resources and technical expertise of the third-party subcontractors, manage the risks in relation to labour and enhance the overall profitability of our operations. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, subcontracting costs amounted to RMB26.9 million, RMB32.5 million and RMB34.6 million, respectively, which accounted for approximately 17.7%, 19.5% and 20.9%, respectively, of our total cost of sales for the relevant period.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, save and except for Ronghui Group and its related parties, none of our Directors, their close associates or any Shareholders which, to the best knowledge of our Directors, owned more than 5% of our share capital had any interest in any of our five largest subcontractors.

Selection and Management of Subcontractors

We aim to create and maintain an effective and comprehensive system for subcontractor management. We constantly monitor and evaluate the subcontractors on their ability to meet our requirements. To ensure the overall quality of our subcontractors, we maintain a list of subcontractors based on our series of assessment standards, including, among others, the amount of registered capital, length of existence, size of overall operations, technical capability, industry credentials, price and past cooperation with us. After initial evaluation of subcontractors, we also regularly review the performance of subcontractors and disqualify subcontractors that do not meet our requirements from the list. We only accept bidding from the subcontractors on the list for subcontracting jobs.

Key Terms of Our Subcontracting Agreement

A typical subcontracting agreement entered into between subcontractors and us generally includes the following key terms:

• Term. A subcontracting agreement typically has a term of approximately one to three years and may be renewed upon mutual consent.

– 202 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

• Our responsibilities. We are typically responsible for providing onsite personnel dispatched by the subcontractor with necessary working space and utilities. We are also responsible for supervising and providing feedback on the work performed by the personnel dispatched by the subcontractor.

• Obligations of the subcontractor. The subcontractor is typically responsible for providing services in accordance with the scope, frequency and standards prescribed in the relevant subcontracting agreement and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. In the event of substandard performance, the subcontractor is required to take necessary rectification measures within the period required by us, failing which we have the right to claim damages and penalties, or terminate the contract. The subcontractor is required to manage its personnel providing the contracted services and there is no employment relationship between us and the personnel of the subcontractor.

• Risk allocation. The subcontractor is responsible for any damages to property or personal injuries caused by the fault of the subcontractor in the course of providing the contracted services. We typically require the subcontractor to indemnify us for any damages that it causes to the properties of the residents and us. The subcontractor is also required to pay all social insurance and housing provident funds contributions for its personnel in accordance with PRC laws and regulations and bear the liabilities and responsibilities in the event of any non-compliance.

• Tools, equipment and raw materials. Tools, equipment and raw materials are to be prepared or procured by the subcontractor. The procurement costs are usually included in the subcontracting fee.

EFFECT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

An outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus, namely COVID-19, was reported in December 2019 and subsequently evolved into a global pandemic. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to have an adverse impact on the livelihood of people around the world and on the global economy.

Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business Operations

According to CIA, the probability of the property management industry being affected by the pandemic and thereby leading to situations such as suspension of operations or termination of services, experiencing troubles with supply of raw materials, reduction of property management fees to arise is extremely low. However, the COVID-19 pandemic had a certain level of short term impact on the property management industry, mainly in relation to costs and management. In particular, our following services have experienced certain short-term impact as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

• Property management services. To comply with government regulations and measures to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, we incurred additional medical and sterilisation material costs in 2020. In 2020, we did not experience any significant difficulty in collecting management fee.

• Sales centre management services. Certain of the sales offices and show flats we managed suspended operations after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of government requirements, decrease in demand, and changes in property developers’ business plans. In 2020, three projects were delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic while we did not record any significant loss due to such delay as we also postponed our personnel deployment accordingly. These projects have been delivered in 2020.

• Common area value-added services. During the COVID-19 pandemic, due to the measures on combatting the COVID-19 pandemic in properties under our management, our ability to rent out community spaces was negatively affected.

• Commercial operational services. The COVID-19 pandemic has a relatively direct impact on the commercial properties operated by us from the aspects such as tenant sourcing, commercial operational service fee collection rate and whether the commercial property is allowed to open. However, through our smart technology platform, we integrate the online and offline business of the merchants of the commercial properties operated by us to support their continuous operations.

Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we had not encountered any material disruption to the services provided by our third-party subcontractors and utilities service providers and the supply of materials from our suppliers. Our Directors consider that while the supply chains in all industries will be affected to a certain extent by any pandemic similar to that of COVID-19, particularly due to the prolonged suspension of business operations and the instability of a workforce arising from any potential mandatory quarantine requirements, in view of the nature of our business, our Directors do not

– 204 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS expect that we will encounter any material disruptions of our supply chain if COVID-19 cases were to substantially increase again in China given that we do not rely on any particular service subcontractors or material suppliers and there are many other subcontractors and suppliers in the market as back-up. In view of the foregoing, our Directors believe that we can continue to provide our services and discharge our obligations under existing contracts.

We were informed by Ronghui Group that it anticipated certain delay in certain projects as a result of the business suspension imposed by the PRC Government in curbing the COVID-19 pandemic. However, after consulting Ronghui Group and other property owners or developers, we do not anticipate there will be any material delay in sales, construction and delivery of the properties developed by Ronghui Group, joint ventures and associates of Ronghui Group and independent third-party property developers for our management as scheduled. We believe such delay will unlikely have material adverse impact on our financial condition.

In the long term, however, the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to bring about positive changes to the property management industry. During the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, property management companies drew the attention of the government and the communities. We believe our efforts to control the outbreak has earned us higher degrees of trust and reliance from property owners and residents at properties under our management. We believe the measures on combatting the COVID-19 pandemic imposed in many regions have also led to residents’ increasing reliance on community value-added services to address their daily living needs. We believe this presents us with significant opportunities to expand our related service offerings. Based on the above, our Directors are of the view that no material adverse effect on our operations and financial performance is expected to result from the recent COVID-19 pandemic.

Unlike other industries such as retail and manufacturing which may be subject to extensive or even complete suspension of operations for a period of time as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, given the nature of our business operations, our Directors are of the view that the risk of our Group having to suspend our operations is remote. In the unlikely event that we are forced to reduce or suspend part of our business operations, whether due to government policy or any other reasons beyond our control, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we estimate our existing financial resources (including cash and bank balances and amounts due from related parties to be repaid before [REDACTED]) as at 31 December 2020 could satisfy our necessary costs for over 12 months. Our key assumptions of the worst case scenario where our business is forced to be suspended due to the impact of COVID-19 include: (i) we can only maintain and generate revenue from property management services, which are less affected by the COVID-19 pandemic; (ii) all of our staff, including operational and administrative staff, are encouraged to take unpaid leave under mutual consent or dismissed upon proper notice in accordance with the employment contract and no significant compensation is incurred; (iii) we may incur one-month staff cost to dismiss front line staff assuming no mutual consent to take unpaid leave is obtained from them; (iv) the rental related payments including rentals, management fees and other miscellaneous charges will be paid on time; (v) minimal operating and administrative expenses will be incurred to maintain our operations at a minimum level (including basic head office maintenance cost, utilities expenses, fees to be incurred as a [REDACTED] company such as annual [REDACTED], annual audit fee, financial reports and compliance adviser fee); (vi) the expansion plan is delayed under such condition; (vii) there will be no further internal or external financing from Shareholders or financial institutions; and (viii) no further dividend will be declared and paid under such situation.

– 205 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

The abovementioned extreme situation may or may not occur. The abovementioned analysis is for illustrative purpose only and our Directors currently assessed that the likelihood of such situation is remote. The actual impact caused by the outbreak of COVID-19 will depend on its subsequent development; therefore it is a possibility that such impact to our Group may be out of our Director’s control and beyond our estimation and assessment.

Our Contingency Plan and Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have adopted the following hygiene and precautionary measures across the properties under our management since late January 2020.

• Communications with the relevant government authorities. We have been closely monitoring and following the latest regulatory measures on combatting the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of measuring the body temperature of residents, visitors and our employees, and timely reporting potential issues to the relevant authorities.

• Activity suspension. Where necessary, we may suspend various playgrounds and recreation centres and other facilities under our management, and cancelled various community cultural events to reduce gathering of people.

• Disinfection. We spray disinfectants in public facilities, building corridors, elevators and other public spaces under our management.

• Garbage disposal. We designate specialised collection and disposal sites for used masks and other potentially hazardous materials.

• Property owner education. We actively inform property owners through WeChat groups and community posters regarding the latest policies and measures on the COVID-19 pandemic as well as our plans as a property management service providers.

– 206 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

The additional costs for implementing these enhanced measures, after taking into account the medical and cleaning supplies distributed by local governments, was RMB0.5 million for the year ending 31 December 2020. This mainly represents the material costs for masks, ethanol hand wash, disinfectants, infrared thermometers, etc. Our Directors confirm that the additional costs associated with the enhanced measures had no significant impact on our Group’s financial position for the year ending 31 December 2020.

Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business Strategies

According to CIA, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused short-term financial and management pressure to property management company, but it is expected that COVID-19 pandemic would also bring about positive changes to the property management industry as, among others, the COVID-19 pandemic creates demand for new value-added services and the relevant authorities may implement policies favourable to property management companies to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. We therefore believe that our expansion plan as discussed in the paragraph headed “—Our Strategies” above is feasible, and we currently expect that it is unlikely that we would change the use of the [REDACTED] received by our Company from the [REDACTED] as disclosed in the section headed “Future Plans and [REDACTED]” in this document as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Smart Community

Our efforts in building a smart community also helped us in mitigating the impact of COVID-19 pandemic. We have established our smart property management platform based on facilities and equipment online monitoring system, centralised surveillance system, integrated command centre, smart community service platform represented by Xiaohui Dangjia APP, and self-service car parks. The smart community can reduce human contact and improve management efficiency, which provided us advantage in implement social distancing and strengthened entrance control in the COVID-19 pandemic. We plan to further improve our service quality and operational efficiency through construction of smart management system and enhancement of our core competitiveness of technology empowerment. Please refer to the paragraph headed “—Our Strategies—Improve our service quality and operational efficiency through upgrades and optimisation of our information management systems and platforms” above and the section headed “Future Plans and [REDACTED]” in this document for further details.

QUALITY CONTROL

We believe quality control is crucial to the long-term success of our business. We have a series of quality control policies which primarily cover maintaining service standards, standardising service procedures and monitoring service quality throughout our operational processes.

Quality Control over Property Management Services and Commercial Operational Services

In order to ensure our service quality and consumer satisfaction, we conduct reviews on consumer satisfaction at all properties under our management on a quarterly or semi-annually basis. The quality check and consumer satisfaction results are factored into the performance review of project companies and regional companies. For our property management services, the average customer satisfaction rates were 80.4%, 85.9% and 86.6% in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. For our commercial operational services, the average satisfaction rates were 82.1%, 82.5% and 92.0% in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. We have established well-developed and standardised quality control systems and we have obtained, among others, the ISO 9001:2015 quality management system certification, the ISO 14001:2015 environment management system certification and the ISO 45001:2018 occupation health and safety management system certification. For properties of different types and sizes, we followed the above quality management systems and implemented effective management through planning, management target setting and assessment, and formulate specific management procedures and assessment standards for our services and established a full life cycle service quality system from planning stage to delivery.

Quality Control over Subcontractors

We typically include in the agreements with subcontractors detailed quality standards for the services to be provided. We regularly monitor and evaluate the performance of the subcontractors and may require the subcontractors to take necessary rectification measures when their services do not meet the agreed standards. We also conduct annual surveys among property owners and residents regarding the quality of services provided by our subcontractors. We also conduct periodic performance assessment of our subcontractors and we have the contractual right to deduct the subcontracting fees if the score of such performance assessment is below a certain level. We also have the contractual right to terminate the agreement immediately if we receive a certain number of genuine complaints from our customers regarding such subcontractor. Please refer to the paragraph headed “—Subcontracting—Selection and Management of Subcontractors” above.

Quality Control over Third-party Vendors

We implement various measures and policies to ensure the quality of the products and services offered by third-party vendors, such as screening candidate vendors by examining their qualifications and conducting onsite inspection of their business premises, before entering into cooperation agreements with them. We also conduct annual assessment on our vendors in respect of service quality and after-sales services. We also have the right to replace or return of the goods at the cost of a third-party vendor if such goods are not able to meet our requirements.

Feedback and Complaint Management

During the ordinary course of our business, we receive feedback, suggestions and complaints (such as report of loss of properties and request for repair of public facilities) from property owners and residents of the properties we manage from time to time regarding our services. We have established internal procedures to record, process and respond to the feedback, suggestions and complaints and conduct follow-up reviews of the results of our responses.

We collect and analyse our customers’ feedback on our service to improve our service quality. We have designated customer service personnel responding to customer’s feedback or complaint 24 hours daily. Further, we also adopt standardised procedures to manage customers’ complaints. Our customer service personnel are required to respond to the customers’ first complaints within 30 minutes. Customers’ reports and request for repair must be responded with 30 minutes and the customer shall be told the outcome of the on-site inspection, handling opinions and measures and the estimated completion times. For emergency incidents, our personnel need to arrive at the scene and attend to the situation within 10 minutes. All reports and requests for repair shall be closed according to the scheduled timeline and registration and return visits shall be made.

During the Track Record Period, we did not experience any customer complaints about our services or products that would have a material adverse impact on our operations or financial results.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

We consider our intellectual property rights as critical to our success. We primarily rely on laws and regulations on trademarks and trade secrets and our employees’ and third parties’ contractual commitments to confidentiality and non-competition to protect our intellectual property rights. As at the Latest Practicable Date, we had obtained one registered trademark, two copyrights and two domain names in the PRC, among which one software copyright and one domain name are for our Xiaohui Dangjia mobile application. We are also currently applying for one trademark in Hong Kong, three trademarks in the PRC and one copyright in the PRC.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, we were not aware of any infringement which could have a material adverse effect on our business operations by our Group against any intellectual property rights of any third party or by any third party against any intellectual property rights of our Group.

COMPETITION

According to CIA, the PRC property management industry is highly fragmented, with approximately 200,000 property management service providers operating in the industry in 2020. Moreover, according to CIA, there are several barriers for players in China’s property management industry to successfully compete and achieve sustainable growth, such as brand value, capital requirements, quality of management and availability of talent and technical expertise, which we believe we have and will continue to overcome. In addition, the commercial operational market is relatively fragmented. For more information on the industry and the markets that we operate in, please refer to the sections headed “Industry Overview” and “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry—we face a wide range of competition and may fail to compete effectively and operate profitably” in this document.

INSURANCE

We maintain insurance policies against major risks and liabilities arising from our business operations, primarily (i) liability insurance to cover liabilities for property damages or personal injuries suffered by third parties arising out of or related to our business operations; and (ii) property insurance for damages to both movable and immovable properties owned by us or in our custody. We require our subcontractors to purchase accident insurance for their employees who provide services to our Group, and in accordance with our standard terms in the agreements between subcontractors and us, the subcontractors are responsible for all workplace injuries to their employees.

We believe that our insurance coverage is in line with the industry practice in the PRC. However, our insurance coverage may not adequately protect us against certain operating risks and other hazards, which may result in adverse effects on our business. For more details, please refer to the section headed “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry—Our insurance coverage may not sufficiently cover the risks related to our business” in this document.

CERTIFICATES, LICENCES AND PERMITS

We are required to obtain and maintain various certificates, licences and permits in relation to our operations. As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, we obtained all material certificates, licences and permits from relevant regulatory authorities necessary for our main business lines as at the Latest Practicable Date. We are required to renew such certificates, licences and permits from time to time. We do not expect that we will face any difficulties in renewing our certificates, licences and permits.

PROPERTIES

As at the Latest Practicable Date, we also leased 10 properties in various locations in the PRC with an aggregated GFA of approximately 2,957.1 sq.m. for use primarily as office spaces, commercial properties and employee dormitories.

Under PRC laws and regulations, we might be ordered to rectify this non-compliance by competent authorities and if we fail to rectify within a prescribed period, a penalty of RMB1,000 to RMB10,000 for each agreement may be imposed on us as a result of such non-filing. As at the Latest Practicable Date, we had not received any notice from any regulatory authority with respect to potential administrative penalties or enforcement actions as a result of our failure to file the lease agreements described above. Our PRC Legal Advisor has advised us that the failure to file the lease agreements would not affect the validity of the lease agreements. Our Directors are of the view that the lack of such filing would not have a material adverse effect on our business operations or constitute a material legal obstacle for the [REDACTED].

RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND COMPLIANCE

Legal Proceedings

We have been involved in legal proceedings or disputes from time to time in the ordinary course of business, such as contract disputes with our customers, suppliers or disputes with other third parties at properties under our management. As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were no litigation or arbitration proceedings or administrative proceedings pending against us or any of our Directors which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations. As at 31 December 2020, we made provision of RMB933,600 for liabilities related to claims by suppliers and employees against us. Our Directors believe that such provision is adequate.

Xintianyuan Litigation

As at the Latest Practicable Date, we were involved in a legal proceeding which render certain of our GFA under management as at the Latest Practicable Date in dispute, details of which is set out below:

Since December 2009, pursuant to the preliminary property management service contracts (as renewed) (the “Property Management Contracts”) entered into between Chongqing Xintianyuan (one of our subsidiaries) and the property developer of Zongshen Dongli City (宗申 動力城) in Banan District, Chongqing (“Zongshen Dongli City”), Chongqing Xintianyuan has been providing property management services to Zongshen Dongli City. As at the Latest Practicable Date, Chongqing Xintianyuan provided property management services to Zongshen Dongli City with an aggregate GFA under management of approximately 0.4 million sq.m., representing approximately 5.5% of our total GFA under management as at the Latest Practicable Date. In 2020, the revenue generated from the property management services provided by Chongqing Xintianyuan to Zongshen Dongli City pursuant to the Property Management Contracts amounted to RMB7.2 million, representing approximately 3.0% of our total revenue during the same period.

In September 2020, the third property owners’ association of Zongshen Dongli City (the “Third Property Owners’ Association”) was established. On 24 March 2021, the Third Property Owners’ Association published the poll results of the first general meeting of the property owners of Zongshen Dongli City (the “First General Meeting”), claiming that a resolution (the “Resolution”) for the termination of the Property Management Contracts had been approved in the First General Meeting. On 31 March 2021, the Third Property Owners’ Association served a notice of termination to Chongqing Xintianyuan for the termination of the Property Management Contracts (the “Notice of Termination”). On 13 April 2021, Chongqing Xintianyuan initiated a civil lawsuit (the “Xintianyuan Litigation”) against the Third Property Owners’ Association with the People’s Court of Banan District, Chongqing (the “Court”). Chongqing Xintianyuan claimed that the procedures for holding the First General Meeting and passing the Resolution were illegal, and as a result, the Notice of Termination, which was based on the Resolution, did not have legal effect to terminate the Property Management Contracts.

On 18 June 2021, Chongqing Xintianyuan received a decision of the Court dated 10 June 2021 on rejecting the jurisdiction objection raised by the Third Property Owners’ Association. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Xintianyuan Litigation was pending on the final decision on the jurisdiction objection, subject to the Third Property Owners’ Association’s decision to appeal on the rejection of the jurisdiction objection.

To the best of our Directors’ knowledge, on 30 April 2021, certain individual property owners of Zongshen Dongli City initiated civil lawsuit (the “Individual Property Owners Litigation”) against the Third Property Owners’ Association with the Court, claiming that authenticity and legality of the First General Meeting and the Resolution are under dispute and requesting the Court to revoke the Resolution. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Individual Property Owners Litigation had not commenced its first hearing. Based on the advice of the litigation lawyer engaged by Xintianyuan in the Xintianyuan Litigation, our Directors are of the view that if the Court rules in favour of the individual property owners in the Individual Property Owners Litigation, the Xintianyuan Litigation is expected to have a higher possibility of success.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Chongqing Xintianyuan continued to provide property management services and collect property management fee pursuant to the Property Management Contracts. Based on the advice of the litigation lawyer engaged by Xintianyuan in the Xintianyuan Litigation, our Directors are of the view that before the final court ruling of the Xintianyuan Litigation, the provision of management services and collection of management fee pursuant to the Property Management Contracts does not violate any PRC laws and regulations. If the Court ultimately rules against Chongqing Xintianyuan in the Xintianyuan Litigation, the Property Management Contracts will be terminated and Chongqing Xintianyuan will then be required to cease to provide property management services to Zongshen Dongli City and collect property management fee accordingly.

Based on the advice of the litigation lawyer engaged by Xintianyuan in the Xintianyuan Litigation, our Directors are of the view that based on the evidence available before inspecting the evidence of the other side of the Xintianyuan Litigation, it has higher possibility that the Resolution will be considered as invalid because of procedural irregularities in connection with the First General Meeting and the passing of the Resolution, and as a result, Chongqing Xintianyuan has a higher possibility of success in the Xintianyuan Litigation.

During the process of acquisition of Chongqing Xintianyuan (the “Xintianyuan Acquisition”), we conducted proper due diligence on Chongqing Xintianyuan and identified the Xintianyuan Litigation before entering into the equity transfer agreement (the “Equity Transfer Agreement”) with the then shareholders of Chongqing Xintianyuan. We considered the risks associated with the Xintianyuan Litigation and believed Chongqing Xintianyuan has a higher probability of success. Notwithstanding that, we have included the following mechanisms (the “Protective Mechanisms”) to protect our interest: (i) when negotiating with the then shareholders of Chongqing Xintianyuan, we lowered the acquisition price to reflect the risks associated with the Xintianyuan Litigation; (ii) according to the Equity Transfer Agreement, among the consideration of the Xintianyuan Acquisition in the amount of RMB10.2 million, we will withhold RMB2.0 million and will only release, after the first anniversary of the completion of the Xintianyuan Acquisition and if the results of operations of Xintianyuan in terms of net profit, as evidenced by a professional accountants’ report, and GFA under

– 218 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS management meet our requirements as set out in the Equity Transfer Agreement; and (iii) we only acquired 51% equity interest in Chongqing Xintianyuan, taking into consideration of the risks associated with the Xintianyuan Litigation and the Protective Mechanisms.

Based on the advice of the litigation lawyer engaged by Xintianyuan in the Xintianyuan Litigation, our Directors are of the view that the size of the GFA and revenue being subject to the dispute and the abovementioned Protective Mechanisms, we believe that the results of the Xintianyuan Litigation will not have any material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Historical Non-Compliance Incident

As advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, we had not been subject to significant fines or legal actions involving non-compliances with any PRC laws or regulations relating to our business during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date. The summary below sets out incident of historical non-compliance with applicable regulations during the Track Record Period. Our Directors believe that below non-compliance incident will not have any material operational or financial impact on us.

Background of non-compliance incident

During the Track Record Period, some of our PRC subsidiaries and branches failed to make full contribution to the social insurance and housing provident funds for some of our employees as required under PRC law.

Reasons for the non-compliance

This non-compliance incident was primarily because our responsible personnel at our subsidiaries and branches did not adequately understand relevant local regulatory requirements, as our subsidiaries and branches are located in various provinces and cities in China and local regulatory requirements vary across different regions.

Legal consequences and potential maximum penalties

According to the relevant PRC laws and regulations, if we fail to pay the full amount of social insurance contributions as required, the relevant PRC authorities may demand us to pay the outstanding social insurance contributions within a stipulated time period and we may be subject to a late payment fee equal to 0.05% of the outstanding amount for each day of delay; if we fail to make such payments, we may be subject to a fine of one to three times to the amount of the outstanding contributions. In respect of outstanding housing provident fund contributions, we may be ordered to pay the outstanding housing provident fund contributions within a prescribed time period. If the payment is not made within such time period, an application may be made to PRC courts for compulsory enforcement. In addition, we will be fined RMB10,000 to RMB50,000 for failing to make the housing provident fund registration within the prescribed time period.

– 219 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. BUSINESS

Our Directors believe that such non-compliance would not have any material and adverse effect on our business and results of operations, considering that: (i) during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we had not received any notifications from the relevant PRC authorities requiring us to pay material shortfalls or the penalties with respect to social insurance and housing provident funds; (ii) we have not been subject to any administrative penalties with respect to social insurance and housing provident funds during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date; (iii) we were not aware of any material employee complaints nor were involved in any material labour disputes with our employees with respect to social insurance and housing provident funds during the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date; (iv) we have made provisions for our shortfall of contribution to social insurance and housing provident funds in the amount of RMB2.5 million, RMB2.3 million and RMB2.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, and our Directors are of the view that such provisions are adequate; (v) a majority of our PRC subsidiaries and branches have obtained written or oral confirmations from competent local authorities of social insurance and housing provident funds indicating that no administrative penalty had been imposed on our PRC subsidiaries and branches; (vi) we will ensure our relevant PRC subsidiaries and branches fully comply in the event that the competent authorities require our relevant PRC subsidiaries and branches to make contributions to our outstanding payments; and (vii) our Controlling Shareholders [have undertaken] that in the event that we receive requests from the relevant authorities to pay the overdue social insurance and housing provident funds contributions, or that we are required to pay any late charges or penalties as a result of such overdue contributions, they will indemnify us against our payments of overdue contributions and any late charges or penalties imposed by the relevant authorities, to the extent that any such payment is not covered by the provisions we made for our shortfall of contribution to social insurance and housing provident funds.

In view of above, our PRC Legal Advisors are of the view that the risk that we would be subject to material administrative penalties for our aforementioned failure to make full contributions to the social insurance and housing provident funds for our employees by relevant authorities is low.

Rectification measures

To prevent future non-compliance incidents of similar nature, we have (i) engaged external compliance legal advisors in the PRC to provide advice on compliance matters; (ii) designated internal compliance team with legal professional qualification in the PRC to monitor the compliance matters of our Group; and (iii) formulated internal policies governing the matters in relation to social insurance and housing provident funds.

OVERVIEW

Immediately upon completion of the [REDACTED] (without taking into account any Shares which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of the [REDACTED] or any option which may be granted under the Share Option Scheme), our Company will be owned as to [REDACTED]% by Wong-Holding, [REDACTED]% by Chan-Holding and [REDACTED]% by WC-Holding. Wong-Holding is wholly owned by Wong-BVI, which is in turn wholly owned by Mr. Wong. Chan-Holding is wholly owned by Chan-BVI, which is in turn wholly owned by Ms. Chan, the spouse of Mr. Wong. WC-Holding is wholly owned by WC-BVI, which is in turn owned as to 55% by Mr. Wong and 45% by Ms. Chan.

On 24 June 2021, Mr. Wong and Ms. Chan entered into an acting-in-concert agreement, whereby they agreed and confirmed that among other things, during the period starting from when they became the registered owners and/or beneficial owners of the interests in our Group to the date when any one of them ceases to be our Controlling Shareholder, they have voted and will continue to vote unanimously in accordance with the consensus achieved between them when exercising voting rights at shareholders’ meetings of each member company within our Group. See the section headed “History, Reorganisation and Corporate Structure — Acting-In-Concert Agreement” in this document for details.

Accordingly, Mr. Wong, Ms. Chan, Wong-Holding, Chan-Holding, WC-Holding, Wong-BVI, Chan-BVI and WC-BVI constitute a group of our Controlling Shareholders.

Each of Wong-Holding, Chan-Holding, WC-Holding, Wong-BVI, Chan-BVI and WC-BVI is an investment holding company.

DELINEATION OF BUSINESS

Our Group is principally engaged in the provision of property management services and commercial operational services.

Other than our Group, our Controlling Shareholders are interested in companies engaged in, among others, property development, landscape engineering, chemical production and hotel investment and operation (the “Non-included Businesses”). The Non-included Businesses are separate and distinct from our business. Our Directors are of the view that there is no competition between the Non-included Businesses and the businesses of our Group.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, none of our Controlling Shareholders and our Directors had any interest in any other business which competes or is likely to compete, either directly or indirectly with our Group’s business which would require disclosure under Rule 8.10 of the Listing Rules.

To ensure that competition will not exist in the future, Mr. Wong and Ms. Chan [have entered] into the Deed of Non-Competition in favour of our Group to the effect that each of them will not, and will procure each of their respective close associates not to, directly or indirectly participate in, or hold any right or interest, or otherwise be involved in any business which may be in competition with our business, further details of which are set out in the paragraph headed “—Deed of Non-Competition” below.

OUR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH RONGHUI GROUP

Our Group has a long-term, strategic and cooperative relationship with Ronghui Group. We have been providing Ronghui Group with property management services since the establishment of our Group in 2006, and commercial operational services since 2008. During the Track Record Period, all of the commercial properties and a substantial majority of the residential properties developed and owned by Ronghui Group were under our management. According to CIA, the business relationship between our Group and Ronghui Group is common among the property management and commercial operational service providers in the PRC and their affiliated property developers.

– 221 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RELATIONSHIP WITH CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS

Ronghui Group, founded and controlled by Mr. Wong, has over 17 years of property development experience and has comprehensive business offerings covering various industries. Ronghui Group was named as one of the 2018 Top 100 Leading Brands of China Comprehensive Real Estate Companies by CIA and one of the 2019 Top 100 China Real Estate Developers by CIA.

During the Track Record Period, we were engaged to provide property management services and commercial operational services to substantially all of the properties developed by Ronghui Group or its joint ventures and associates, and the success rate of our tender bids for preliminary property management contracts in respect of projects developed by Ronghui Group and its joint ventures and associates was 100%. See the section headed “Business—Property Management Services” in this document for more details.

Our Directors consider that the business relationship between our Group and Ronghui Group has been mutually beneficial and complementary. Our long-standing relationship and established track record of providing services to Ronghui Group has enabled us to be familiar with the standards and requirements of Ronghui Group, which has helped reduce communication costs, build mutual trust, as well as enabled us to constantly provide consistent quality property management and commercial operational services which meet the expectations and requirements of Ronghui Group. Our Directors believe that the long history of business relationship between our Group and Ronghui Group has resulted in well-established mutual understanding between the two groups.

Notwithstanding the large number of property management and/or commercial operational service providers available in the market, we believe that it would not be in the best interest of Ronghui Group to select and engage such other service providers, considering the amount of time and resources required for seeking a comparable service provider and developing a mutually beneficial business relationship. As demonstrated above and as confirmed by our Directors, our Group had, based on our own experience and expertise without relying on our relationship with Ronghui Group, secured a substantial portion of our property management projects in respect of properties developed by Ronghui Group through tendering processes during the Track Record Period. Going forward, given the existing mutually beneficial and complementary business relationship, and considering the amount of time and effort potentially required by Ronghui Group to engage other service providers which could provide equally satisfactory services, we are of the view that we will continue to have a competitive advantage which distinguishes us from our competitors and we believe we will continue to have a high success rate in securing future engagements from Ronghui Group. Based on the foregoing, our Directors are of the view that it is unlikely that the current business relationship between our Group and Ronghui Group would be materially adversely changed or terminated. See the section headed “Business—Relationship with Property Developers and Ronghui Group” in this document for further details.

Nevertheless, we have been actively pursuing business expansion opportunities in respect of services provided to properties developed by Independent Third Parties. See the section headed “Business— Relationship with Property Developers and Ronghui Group” in this document and the paragraph headed “—Independence from Our Controlling Shareholders—Operational Independence—Procurement of and achievements in securing independent projects” below for further details.

INDEPENDENCE FROM OUR CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS

– 223 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RELATIONSHIP WITH CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS

Notwithstanding the overlapping positions as mentioned above, our Directors are of the view that our Group is able to manage our business independently from our Controlling Shareholders and their respective close associates for the following reasons:

(i) save as disclosed above, there is no overlap between the senior management members of our Group and the Excluded Group. Our senior management team will carry out the business operations of our Group independently from our Controlling Shareholders and their respective close associates;

(ii) despite the dual roles of our executive Director, Ms. Wong Tan Ching, in our Group and the Excluded Group, she has been working closely with and will continue to work closely with our other executive Director, Mr. Wong Wai Lam, in respect of matters relating to our Group. They will be further supported by our independent senior management team in the handling of the day-to-day matters of our Group;

(iii) Mr. Chen Zhong, Mr. Feng Shijun, Mr. Pei Luyang and Mr. Tang Shijie as our non-executive Directors will not be involved in the day-to-day management and the business operations of our Group;

(iv) we have three independent non-executive Directors, representing one-third of the number of our Board members. The independent non-executive Directors will represent an element of independence at the Board level and will, among other matters, provide independent advice to other members of our Board; review and monitor any connected transactions as may be entered between our Group and our Controlling Shareholders and their respective close associates from time to time; and review and monitor matters referred to in the Deed of Non-Competition, details of which are set out in the paragraph headed “—Deed of Non-Competition” below, for the purpose of protecting the interests of our Company and our Shareholders as a whole;

(v) each of the Directors is aware of his/her fiduciary duties as a Director, which require, among other things, that he/she should for the benefit and in the best interests of our Company; and

(vi) in the event that there is any potential conflict of interest arising out of any transaction to be entered into between our Group and any of our Controlling Shareholders or their respective close associates, those Directors with a potential conflict of interest shall abstain from voting at the relevant board meeting of our Company in respect of such transaction and his/her presence shall not be counted in the quorum for such meeting.

Operational Independence

We are of the view that we have sufficient capital, facilities and employees and are able to make all decisions on, and to carry out, our own business operations independently from our Controlling Shareholders and their respective close associates and will continue to do so after the [REDACTED].

Property management services

All of our property management services at the pre-delivery stage is provided to Ronghui Group, which is beneficially owned by Mr. Wong and Ms. Chan. Such preliminary management contracts for residential properties developed by Ronghui Group have been secured primarily through open standard tender and bidding processes, in which tender bids would be evaluated by tender evaluation committees established by Ronghui Group consisting of an odd number of five members or above, in accordance with applicable PRC laws and regulations. The tendering process is a well-established, competitive and fairly structured process on which neither Ronghui Group nor our Group is able to exert undue influence on the selection process. We do not enjoy any preferential right to be engaged as the preliminary property management service provider for projects developed by Ronghui Group and we are not given extra weighting in the selection process and will not be automatically awarded property management contracts simply due to our relationship with Ronghui Group. We undergo the same tender and bidding process to secure preliminary management contracts for properties developed by independent third-party property developers. For more information, see the section headed “Business—Property Management Services —Property Management Service Agreements” in this document.

After the delivery of the properties by Ronghui Group to the property owners, our property management services are provided to such property owners who are generally Independent Third Parties. The property owners may at their discretion establish a property owners’ association to manage the properties and through the property owners’ association, engage or dismiss their property management services provider at their own discretion. The property owners’ association, if formed, will be operated by the property owners and will be independent of Ronghui Group. Neither Ronghui Group nor our Group has the power or ability to influence the decisions of property owners or the property owners’ associations to engage or dismiss property management service providers. We have to provide quality services to the residents/owners of the properties in order to secure our continuous appointment. During the Track Record Period, we continued to provide property management services for most of the projects after the establishment of the property owners’ associations. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, the retention rate of the properties we managed was 97.7%, 97.7% and 100%, respectively, which we believe reflects our property management capabilities and shows that we are able to operate independently from Ronghui Group. After the delivery of the properties, we also provide community value-added services to a number of independent customers, including third-party property owners, property owners’ associations and residents.

While there are no regulatory requirements on the property owners to conduct bidding and tender process for the procurement and renewal of non-residential property management services for non-residential properties, our Group goes through a selection process in order to obtain the contracts for non-residential property management services. Once the business opportunities are made available to our Group, we would submit a proposal on the provision of property management services (which would mainly include the pricing and service standards). The respective departments/teams of Ronghui Group will review and assess the proposal submitted and determine whether or not to award the contracts to our Group.

Commercial operational services

Historically, our Group procured commercial operational service engagements from Ronghui Group through commercial negotiations. Under applicable PRC laws and regulations, Ronghui Group is not required to go through any public tender procedures in engaging commercial operational service providers.

Typically after obtaining a parcel of land for the development of a property, Ronghui Group would invite our Group to submit a proposal on the provision of commercial operational services for the property. The proposal would include market research, preliminary design/positioning analysis, pricing strategy and estimated return of the property. In preparing the proposal, our Group would form a team comprising personnel responsible for finance, operation and brand management to perform works such as site visit, market research and preliminary positioning. The proposal would be submitted to Ronghui Group for its internal approval, the decision process of which would involve the consideration of the pricing standards adopted by our Group against those providing comparable services in the market. Our Group has to provide quality and competitive services to Ronghui Group in order to secure new as well as continuous appointment by Ronghui Group.

During the Track Record Period, the substantial majority of our revenue from commercial operational services was attributable to services provided to tenants after the opening of the commercial properties, who are usually Independent Third Parties.

Procurement of and achievements in securing independent projects

As at 31 December 2020, substantially all of our total GFA under management was developed by Ronghui Group and its joint ventures and associates. Despite the above, the majority of our revenue is attributable to independent individual property owners and tenants and independent third-party property developers. We have been able to maintain a diversified customer base, primarily by continuing our property management services to property owners or property owners’ associations after the delivery of properties, by participating in tender and bidding processes conducted by property developers, and by providing value-added services and commercial operational services to other property developers and third party tenants. Our revenue attributable to customers other than Ronghui Group and its joint ventures and associates accounted for approximately 81.2%, 80.9% and 74.8% of our total revenue for the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively.

We have established business development teams with industry knowledge and experience at each of our operating regions which oversee the sourcing of projects, in particular ones developed by Independent Third Parties. We have implemented various incentive measures in 2021 to motivate and incentivise our employees to refer to us market information and opportunities for third-party projects. We plan to continue to increase the resources and efforts dedicated to our business development.

– 226 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. RELATIONSHIP WITH CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS

Since 2020, we have been actively exploring new project engagements and potential acquisition opportunities with Independent Third Parties through various channels, such as, participation in tender and bidding processes and cooperation with third party business partners. Since 1 January 2021 and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we have secured a new engagement to provide commercial operational services to a property developed by an Independent Third Party with a total GFA available for tenant sourcing of approximately 25,756.9 sq.m.. We are also in the process of negotiating and/or pursuing additional engagements with Independent Third Parties. In addition, in May 2021, we acquired from Independent Third Parties 51% of the equity interest in Chongqing Xintianyuan, resulting in an increase in our GFA under management of properties developed or owned by Independent Third Parties of approximately 851,248.9 sq.m. In early 2021, we also signed two framework agreements with Independent Third Parties for strategic cooperations in respect of project design, property management and commercial operation for three tourism projects in various regions of the PRC.

Going forward, we shall continue our efforts in increasing the scale of our services provided to projects developed by independent third-party property developers (the “Independent Projects”) through (i) the securing of new property management engagements by participation in the tendering and bidding process for the management of such properties organised by property owners’ associations and independent third-party property developers; (ii) identifying and acquiring suitable target property management companies; and (iii) the entering into of strategic cooperation arrangements with independent third-party property developers. We plan to use [REDACTED]% of the [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED]to expand our property management service business and commercial operational service business through future acquisitions and investments, details of which are set out in “Future Plans and Use of [REDACTED]”. Our Directors are confident of our ability in expanding our portfolio of Independent Projects, in particular in respect of projects developed by independent third-party property developers of relatively smaller scale which are not supported by the relevant property developer’s affiliated property management services providers. We believe such property developers would welcome property management services and/or commercial operational services from a well-established and reputable services provider such as our Group. Accordingly, we believe that our management portfolio and revenue attributable to properties developed by Independent Third Parties will continue to increase. See the section headed “Business—Relationship with Property Developers and Ronghui Group” in this document for further details.

Licences required for operation

We hold and enjoy the benefit of all relevant licences and permits material to the operation of our business.

Access to customers, suppliers and business partners

We have a large and diversified base of customers, suppliers and business partners that are unrelated to our Controlling Shareholders and/or their respective close associates. We have independent access to such customers, suppliers as well as business partners.

Operational facilities

As at the Latest Practicable Date, we were leasing six properties from our Controlling Shareholders and their respective close associates with an aggregate GFA of approximately 1,731.1 sq.m. mainly for office use and service provision venue. All other properties, facilities, equipment necessary for our business operations are independent from our Controlling Shareholders and their respective close associates.

Employees

As at the Latest Practicable Date, all of our full-time employees were recruited independently from our Controlling Shareholders and their respective close associates and primarily through both internal referrals and external sources such as recruiting websites and third-party recruiters.

Connected transactions with our Controlling Shareholders

The section headed “Connected Transactions” in this document sets out the continuing connected transactions between our Group and our Controlling Shareholders or their associates which will continue after the completion of the [REDACTED]. All such transactions are determined after arm’s length negotiations and on normal commercial terms.

We expect that we will be able to maintain the aggregate amounts of the continuing connected transactions with our Controlling Shareholders or their associates at a reasonable percentage with respect to our total revenues after [REDACTED]. Accordingly, such continuing connected transactions are not expected to affect our operational independence as a whole.

Financial Independence

All loans, advances and balances of non-trade nature due to or from our Controlling Shareholders or their respective close associates not arising from our ordinary course of business will be fully settled before completion of the [REDACTED]. All pledges and guarantees provided by our Group to support borrowings of Ronghui Group will be fully released before completion of the [REDACTED].

In addition, we have our own internal control and accounting systems, accounting and finance department, independent treasury function for cash receipts and payment and independent access to third party financing. Accordingly, we believe we are able to maintain financial independence from our Controlling Shareholders and their respective close associates.

Further, each of the Covenantors has undertaken that if any new business investment or other business opportunity relating to the Restricted Businesses (the “Competing Business Opportunity”) is identified by or made available to his/her or any of his/her close associates, he/she shall, and shall procure that his/her close associates shall, refer such Competing Business Opportunity to our Company on a timely basis by giving written notice (the “Offer Notice”) within 30 days of identifying the target company (if relevant), the nature of the Competing Business Opportunity, the investment or acquisition costs and all other details reasonably necessary for our Company to consider whether to pursue such Competing Business Opportunity.

If appropriate, the Independent Board may appoint independent financial advisers and legal advisers to assist in the decision making process in relation to such Competing Business Opportunity. The Independent Board shall, within 30 days of receipt of the written notice referred above, inform the Covenantors in writing on behalf of our Company its decision whether to pursue or decline the Competing Business Opportunity.

The relevant Covenantor shall be entitled but not obliged to pursue such Competing Business Opportunity if he/she has received a notice from the Independent Board declining such Competing Business Opportunity or if the Independent Board has failed to respond within such 30 days’ period mentioned above. If there is any material change in the nature, terms or conditions of such Competing Business Opportunity pursued by the relevant Covenantor, he/she shall refer such revised Competing Business Opportunity to our Company as if it were a new Competing Business Opportunity.

The Deed of Non-Competition will lapse automatically if the Covenantors and their respective close associates cease to hold, whether directly or indirectly, 30% or above of our Shares with voting rights or our Shares cease to be [REDACTED] on the Stock Exchange. In the event we cease to conduct any of the Restricted Businesses, the Covenantors will no longer be prohibited under the Deed of Non-Competition from conducting such business.

(A) CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS SUBJECT TO THE REPORTING, ANNUAL REVIEW AND ANNOUNCEMENT REQUIREMENTS BUT EXEMPT FROM THE CIRCULAR AND INDEPENDENT SHAREHOLDERS’ APPROVAL REQUIREMENTS

1. Master Procurement Agreement

On [●] 2021, our Company entered into a master procurement agreement with Ronghui Fujian (the “Master Procurement Agreement”), pursuant to which we may procure from Ronghui Group and its associates food products produced by it and entrance coupons for hot springs owned by it, for our marketing promotional activities and as benefits for employees of our Group (the “Procurement”). The Master Procurement Agreement has a term commencing from the [REDACTED] to 31 December 2023.

For each of the three years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, the transaction amount for the Procurement amounted to approximately RMB0.4 million, RMB0.4 million and RMB0.5 million, respectively.

The price of the Procurement will be determined on an arm’s length basis with reference to, among others, the prevailing market price of the products and the wholesale price Ronghui Group and its associates offers to the Independent Third Parties for similar products.

It is estimated that the maximum amount payable by our Group under the Master Procurement Agreement for each of the three years ending 31 December 2023 will not exceed RMB1.0 million, RMB1.0 million and RMB1.2 million, respectively.

In arriving at the above annual caps for the Procurement, our Directors have considered the following factors which they considered to be reasonable and justifiable in the circumstances:

• the historical transaction amounts and growth trend during the Track Record Period; and

• the estimated increase in demand of our Group for the Procurement taking into account the expansion plan of our Group in the next three years and the estimated increasing GFA under management as well as number of employees of our Group.

Ronghui Fujian is indirectly wholly owned by Mr. Wong and Ms. Chan, both our Controlling Shareholders, and therefore a connected person of our Company for the purpose of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the transactions under the Master Procurement Agreement will constitute continuing connected transactions for our Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules upon [REDACTED].

– 250 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

Since each of the applicable percentage ratios under the Listing Rules in respect of the annual caps for the Master Procurement Agreement is expected to be over 0.1% but less than 5% on an annual basis, the transactions under the Master Procurement Agreement constitute continuing connected transactions for our Company which are subject to the reporting, annual review and announcement requirements but exempt from the circular and independent Shareholders’ approval requirement under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

(B) CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS SUBJECT TO THE REPORTING, ANNUAL REVIEW, ANNOUNCEMENT, CIRCULAR AND INDEPENDENT SHAREHOLDERS’ APPROVAL REQUIREMENTS

1. Property Management Services

On [●] 2021, our Company entered into a master property management services agreement (the “Master Property Management Services Agreement”) with Mr. Wong, pursuant to which our Group agreed to provide to Mr. Wong’s associates, particularly Ronghui Group and its associates, property management and related services, including but not limited to (i) pre-delivery services including (a) preliminary planning and design consultancy services, (b) sales centre management services, (c) pre-delivery cleaning, gardening and security services, and (d) pre-delivery inspection; (ii) repair and maintenance services; (iii) property management services for the properties owned or used by Mr. Wong’s associates, including but not limited to unsold residential property units, car parking lots, public space and commercial properties; and (iv) additional tailor-made services such as public facilities cleaning (the “Property Management and Related Services”). The Master Property Management Services Agreement has a term commencing from the [REDACTED] until 31 December 2023.

For the three years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, the total service fee payable to our Group in respect of the Property Management and Related Services amounted to approximately RMB37.0 million, RMB41.5 million and RMB47.9 million, respectively.

The fees to be charged for the Property Management and Related Services will be determined after arm’s length negotiations with reference to (i) the prevailing market price for the relevant services (taking into account the location, size and condition of the properties, the scope and standard of services and the anticipated operational costs including but not limited to labour costs, administrative costs and cost of materials) and (ii) historical transaction amounts.

It is estimated that the maximum amounts of service fee payable to our Group in relation to the Property Management and Related Services for the three years ending 31 December 2023 will not exceed RMB55.0 million, RMB57.0 million and RMB52.0 million, respectively. The expected decrease in the annual caps for the Property Management and Related Services for the three years ending 31 December 2023 is mainly due to the expected decrease in demand of Ronghui Group and its associates for the Property Management and Related Services, having taken into account (i) the latest operating performance of Ronghui Group and its associates; and (ii) the expected GFA to be delivered by Ronghui Group and its associates for the three years ending 31 December 2023 as estimated with reference to our understanding of its future property development plan.

– 251 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

In arriving at the above annual caps of the Property Management and Related Services, our Directors have considered the following factors which they considered to be reasonable and justifiable in the circumstances:

• the historical transaction amounts and growth trend during the Track Record Period;

• the estimated revenue to be recognised in respect of the Property Management and Related Services provided by us pursuant to existing contracts and the expected time and volume of delivery for our existing property management projects;

• the estimated GFA of the properties expected to be developed and sold by Ronghui Group and its associates in the relevant periods, estimated based on the land bank of Ronghui Group and its associates as at 31 December 2020 as well as the GFA of their historical sales; and

• in respect of the annual caps for the property management services to be provided for the unsold residential property units and unsold carpark lots, (i) the aggregate area of the unsold residential property units and aggregate number of unsold car parking lots for the relevant periods, estimated with reference to (a) the historical average vacancy rate, and (b) the expected total GFA under management and (ii) the estimated property management fees to be charged per sq.m.

Mr. Wong is one of our Controlling Shareholders and therefore a connected person of our Company for the purpose of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the transactions under the Master Property Management Services Agreement will constitute continuing connected transactions for our Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules upon [REDACTED].

Since each of the applicable percentage ratios under the Listing Rules in respect of the annual caps for the Master Property Management Services Agreement is expected to be more than 5% on an annual basis, the transactions under the Master Property Management Services Agreement constitute continuing connected transactions for our Company which are subject to the reporting, annual review, announcement, circular and independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

2. Commercial Operational Services

On [●] 2021, our Company entered into a master commercial operational services agreement (the “Master Commercial Operational Services Agreement”) with Ronghui Fujian, pursuant to which our Group agreed to provide to Ronghui Group and its associates commercial operational services, including but not limited to (i) preparation services at the pre-opening stage including (a) market research and positioning, (b) advice on architectural design, (c) tenant sourcing and opening preparation services; and (ii) commercial operational services after the opening of the commercial properties owners including tenant agreement coordination, tenant management, advertising and

promotion, public relation and other administrative services (the “Commercial Operational Services”). The Master Commercial Operational Services Agreement has a term commencing from the [REDACTED] until 31 December 2023.

For the three years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, the total service fee payable to our Group in respect of the Commercial Operational Services amounted to nil, nil and approximately RMB6.2 million, respectively.

The fees to be charged for the Commercial Operational Services will be determined after arm’s length negotiations with reference to (i) the size, location and neighbourhood profile of the commercial properties, (ii) the scope and standard of services to be provided, (iii) the anticipated operational costs (including but not limited to labour costs, costs of materials and administrative costs), (iv) the rates generally offered in the market in respect of comparable services, and (v) the prevailing market price for similar services and types of projects.

It is estimated that the maximum amounts of service fee payable to our Group in relation to the Commercial Operational Services for the three years ending 31 December 2023 will not exceed RMB17.0 million, RMB14.0 million and RMB10.0 million, respectively. The expected higher annual caps for the Commercial Operational Services as compared to the historical transaction amounts for the Track Record Period is mainly due to the expected increase in demand for Commercial Operational Services, taking into account (i) the latest operating performance of Ronghui Group and its associates, (ii) the expected GFA to be delivered by Ronghui Group and its associates for the three years ending 31 December 2023 as estimated with reference to our understanding of its future property development plan; and (iii) our Group commenced charging service fees for the provision of tenants agreement coordination and tenants management, advertising and promotion, public relation and other administrative services from 2021. The decrease in the annual caps for the Commercial Operational Services in the coming three years is mainly due to the expected decrease in number and total GFA of new commercial properties of Ronghui Group and its associates which are expected to commence operation during the three years ending 31 December 2023, estimated based on our understanding of its future property development and opening plan.

In arriving at the above annual caps of Commercial Operational Services, our Directors have considered the following factors which they considered to be reasonable and justifiable in the circumstances:

• the historical transaction amounts and growth trend during the Track Record Period;

• the estimated revenue to be recognised in relation to the Commercial Operational Services provided by us pursuant to the existing contracts and the expected time and volume of delivery for our existing commercial operational projects; and

• the estimated GFA of the commercial properties expected to be developed by Ronghui Group and its associates in the relevant periods, estimated based on the land bank of Ronghui Group and its associates as at 31 December 2020 as well as its historical developed GFA and the related growth rate.

Ronghui Fujian is indirectly wholly owned by Mr. Wong and Ms. Chan, both our Controlling Shareholders and therefore a connected person of our Company for the purpose of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the transactions under the Master Commercial Operational Services Agreement will constitute continuing connected transactions for our Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules upon [REDACTED].

Since each of the applicable percentage ratios under the Listing Rules in respect of the annual caps for the Master Commercial Operational Services Agreement are expected to be more than 5% on an annual basis, the transactions under the Master Commercial Operational Services Agreement constitute continuing connected transactions for our Company which are subject to the reporting, annual review, announcement, circular and independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

3. Carpark Sales Services

On [●] 2021 our Company entered into a master carpark sales services agreement (the “Master Carpark Sales Services Agreement”) with Ronghui Fujian, pursuant to which our Group agreed to provide marketing and sales services for the unsold car parking spaces of Ronghui Group and its associates (the “Carpark Sales Services”). The Master Carpark Sales Services Agreement has a term commencing from the [REDACTED] until 31 December 2023.

For the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, the total amount of fees received by our Group for the provision of Carpark Sales Services amounted to nil, approximately RMB0.5 million and RMB6.4 million, respectively. The increase in the fee received by our Group for the provision of Carpark Sales Services in 2020 was mainly due to the increased efforts of our Group to expand our carpark sales business since 2019 when we started to provide such services to Ronghui Group.

The fees to be charged for the Carpark Sales Services will be a fixed fee per carpark unit sold with the assistance of our Group, which will be determined after arm’s length negotiations with reference to the prevailing market price taking into account the location and the conditions of the relevant unsold carparks and the anticipated operational costs including labour costs.

It is estimated that the maximum amounts of service fees receivable by our Group in relation to the Carpark Sales Services for the three years ending 31 December 2023 will not exceed RMB13.0 million, RMB8.0 million and RMB8.0 million, respectively. The expected higher annual caps for the Carpark Sales Services as compared to the transaction amounts during the Track Record Period is mainly due to the expected increase in our service capacity for the Carpark Sales Services resulting from our efforts in the service provision as well as the expected increase of fixed fee per carpark unit sold. The expected decrease in the annual caps for the Carpark Sales Services for the next three years is mainly due to the relatively lower increase in the service demand of Ronghui Group for the Carpark Sales Services considering the development plan of Ronghui Group and that more existing unsold car parking spaces are expected to be sold in 2021.

In arriving at the above annual caps of Carpark Sales Services, our Directors have considered the following factors which they considered to be reasonable and justifiable in the circumstances:

• the historical transaction amounts during the Track Record Period;

– 254 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

• the estimated revenue to be recognised based on the existing signed contracts;

• the expected number of unsold car parking spaces owned by Ronghui Group and its associates, which is estimated based mainly on the existing projects available for sale, as well as the expected number of properties to be developed by Ronghui Group and its associates which will comprise car parking spaces considering the development plan of Ronghui Group; and

• the expected amount of service fee per car parking space sold.

Ronghui Fujian is indirectly wholly owned by Mr. Wong and Ms. Chan, both our Controlling Shareholders and therefore a connected person of our Company for the purpose of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the transactions under the Master Carpark Sales Services Agreement will constitute continuing connected transactions for our Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules upon [REDACTED].

Since each of the applicable percentage ratios under the Listing Rules in respect of the annual caps for the Master Carpark Sales Services Agreement is expected to be more than 5% on an annual basis, the transactions under the Master Carpark Sales Services Agreement constitute continuing connected transactions for our Company which are subject to the reporting, annual review, announcement, circular and independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

We have a long-term, strategic and cooperative relationship with Ronghui Group. We have been providing Ronghui Group with property management services since the establishment of our Group in 2006, and commercial operational services since 2008. Ronghui Group has over 17 years of property development experience and has comprehensive business offerings covering various industries, such as real estate, hotel management, construction engineering, landscape engineering and chemical industry. Ronghui Group was awarded Top 100 Leading Brand of China Comprehensive Real Estate Companies in 2018 and Top 100 China Real Estate Companies in 2019.

We believe that Ronghui Group’s growth in real estate projects supply would continue to support the future growth of our property management services and commercial operational services.

We achieved significant growth during the Track Record Period. Our revenue increased from RMB198.9 million in 2018 to RMB224.2 million in 2019, and further to RMB241.4 million in 2020, representing a CAGR of 10.2% from 2018 to 2020.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Pursuant to the Reorganisation, as more fully explained in the section headed “History, Reorganisation and Corporate Structure” in this document, our Company became the holding company of the companies now comprising our Group on 3 June 2021. The companies now comprising our Group were under the common control of the Controlling Shareholders before and after the reorganisation. Accordingly, the historical financial information in the Accountants’ Report has been prepared on a combined basis by applying the principles of merger accounting as if the reorganisation had been completed at the beginning of the Track Record Period. The combined statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and statements of cash flows of our Group for the Track Record Period include the results and cash flows of all companies now comprising our Group from the earliest date presented or since the date when the subsidiaries and/or businesses first came under the common control of the controlling shareholders, where this is a shorter period. The combined statements of financial position of our Group as at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020 have been prepared to present the assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries and/or businesses using the existing book values from the controlling shareholders’ perspective. No adjustments are made to reflect fair values, or recognise any new assets or liabilities as a result of the Reorganisation. Equity interests in subsidiaries and/or businesses held by parties other than the controlling shareholders, and changes therein, prior to the reorganisation are presented as non-controlling interests in equity in applying the principles of merger accounting. All intra-group transactions and balances have been eliminated on combination.

The financial information of our Group during the Track Record Period has been prepared in accordance with accounting policies which conform with the HKFRSs, which collective term includes all applicable individual Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards (“HKASs”) and Interpretations issued by the HKICPA. The financial information of the Group during the Track Record Period also complies with the applicable disclosure requirements of the Companies Ordinance and the Listing Rules.

The HKICPA has issued a number of new and amended HKFRSs which are relevant to the Group and became effective during the Track Record Period. For the purpose of preparing and presenting the financial information of the Group during the Track Record Period for the Track Record Period, the Group has adopted all new and amended HKFRSs that are effective during the Track Record Period and has applied them consistently throughout the Track Record Period. The financial information of the Group during the Track Record Period has been prepared on the historical cost basis.

FACTORS AFFECTING OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our business, financial position and results of operations have been, or may be expected to be in the future, significantly affected by a number of factors, many of which may be beyond our control. A discussion of certain of these key factors is set out below.

Our Business Scale

Our financial position and results of operations are affected by our business scale, especially the GFA under management for our property management services and the number of projects and the contracted GFA for our commercial operational services.

During the Track Record Period, we generated a majority of our revenue from property management services. The revenue from our property management services business line amounted to RMB164.8 million, RMB186.8 million and RMB203.3 million, respectively, accounting for 82.8%, 83.3% and 84.2% of our total revenue in the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. Accordingly, our revenue growth under property management services largely depends on our ability to maintain and increase our GFA under management, which is in turn affected by our ability to renew existing property management service contracts and secure new property management service engagements. The GFA under management will also affect our community value-added services as we manage more projects and serve an increasing number of property owners and residents from our managed projects.

During the Track Record Period, we experienced a continual growth in our GFA under management for our property management services, which amounted to approximately 5.7 million sq.m., 6.0 million sq.m. and 6.4 million sq.m. as at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively.

– 259 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

For our commercial operational services business line, our revenue amounted to RMB34.1 million, RMB37.4 million and RMB38.1 million, respectively, and accounted for 17.2%, 16.7% and 15.8% of our total revenue in the year ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. Our revenue growth under commercial operational services business line largely depends on our ability to maintain and increase the number of projects, scope of our services and price of our services. As at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, we had 12, 11 and 13 commercial projects, with contracted GFA of 0.3 million sq.m., 0.3 million sq.m. and 0.3 million sq.m., respectively.

We seek to expand our business through multiple channels. For example, we plan to continue to leverage our existing business relationship with Ronghui Group for organic growth. Moreover, we plan to pursue new projects from Independent Third Parties by capitalising on our brand and diversified service offerings and high quality services. In addition, we intend to explore selective strategic investment and acquisition opportunities. Please refer to the section headed “Business—Our Strategies—Further expand our business operations through strategic acquisitions and investments” in this document.

Our Business Mix

Our results of operations are affected by our business mix. During the Track Record Period, we operated two business lines, namely property management services and commercial operational services, which have different gross profit margins. Our gross profit margins of different business lines depend on types of services provided, fees received and costs borne by us under different contractual arrangements. Types of services provided under property management services business line and commercial operational services business line vary in gross profit margin and their fluctuations in gross profit margin or changes in the revenue contribution affect the overall gross profit margin of each business line. Any change in the structure of revenue contribution from our business lines or change in gross profit margin of any of such business lines may have a corresponding impact on our overall gross profit margin.

The table below sets forth the gross profit contribution by each business line and the respective gross profit margins for the periods indicated:

For the year ended 31 December 2018 2019 2020 Gross Gross Gross Gross profit Gross profit Gross profit profit margin profit margin profit margin RMB’000 % RMB’000 % RMB’000 %

Property management services .... 29,911 18.2 35,175 18.8 52,497 25.8 Commercial operational services . . 16,341 47.9 22,670 60.6 23,347 61.3

– 260 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

In general, the gross profit margins of our commercial operational services were higher than those of our property management services which was primarily because (i) commercial operational services are less labour-intensive than property management services; and (ii) unlike general property management services, the provision of services in relation to commercial properties is not subject to price control and therefore we may charge a relatively higher service fee as compared to general property management services, please refer to the section headed “Regulatory Overview—Regulations on Property Management Service—Regulations on the Fees Charged by the Property Management Enterprise” in this document. For further details, please refer to the section headed “—Results of Operations—Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin” in this document.

Our Brand Positioning and Pricing of Our Services

Our results of operations are affected by our ability to maintain or increase the fee rates we charge for our services, which is in part affected by our brand recognition, industry position and government regulations with respect to property management services. We intend to further enhance our brand recognition by providing quality property management services and commercial operational services, and strengthen our brand image to expand our service engagements and to charge premium service fee rates.

For our property management services, we generally price our services based on a number of factors, including (i) local regulatory requirements or guidelines for property management fees; (ii) types, sizes and locations of the properties; (iii) the prevailing market price of the local market; (iv) our estimated costs and expenses; (v) the profiles of property owners and residents; and (vi) the scope and quality of our services. Under the property management service agreements, we may raise property management fees upon renewal of the agreements as approved by a requisite number of property owners in accordance with relevant PRC laws and regulations. Please refer to the section headed “Business—Property Management Services—Our Pricing Policy” in this document.

For our commercial operational services to tenants, we generally price our services with reference to, among others, (i) business scope of the tenant; (ii) location of the commercial property; (iii) positioning of the commercial property; (iv) GFA of the shop leased by the tenant; and (v) brand value of the tenant.

For our commercial operational services to property developers and property owners, we generally price our market research and positioning, tenant sourcing and pre-opening preparatory services, as well as business management services with reference to, among others, (i) brand, size and location of the commercial property; (ii) availability of utilities; (iii) the complication in tenant sourcing; and (iv) the service period.

In determining our pricing, we aim to achieve a balance between pricing our projects competitively while ensuring an attractive profit margin. Failure to achieve a proper balance of relevant factors in determining our pricing could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

The sensitivity analysis below demonstrates the impact of the hypothetical decrease in average property management fees for property management services on our profit, while all other factors remain unchanged:

Our Ability to Mitigate the Impact of Rising Labour Cost

Staff costs constitute a substantial portion of our cost of sales. Staff costs in our cost of sales amounted to RMB97.3 million, RMB107.4 million and RMB106.0 million for the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, representing approximately 63.7%, 64.5% and 64.0%, respectively, of our total cost of sales for the respective period. We have also outsourced certain labour-intensive services and specialised services, primarily including cleaning, gardening, garbage disposal and repair and maintenance services, to subcontractors while maintaining close supervision of their services to ensure service quality. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, we incurred outsourcing expenses of RMB26.9 million, RMB32.5 million and RMB34.6 million, respectively, representing 17.7%, 19.5% and 20.9%, respectively, of our cost of sales for the respective period.

Our business is labour-intensive and the supply of experienced personnel in the market is limited. Competition in the labour market for personnel with related expertise and experience may increase the salary level and correspondingly, our costs associated with hiring and retaining such personnel, and in turn adversely affect our results of operations.

To cope with rising costs in relation to staff costs, we have implemented a number of cost-saving measures, including implementing technology initiatives and automation efforts to reduce our reliance on manual labour. Our ability to mitigate the impact of the rising labour cost will affect our financial position and performance.

For illustration purpose only, we set out below a sensitivity analysis of our profit for the year with reference to the fluctuation of our staff costs and outsourcing costs in our cost of sales during the Track Record Period.

Competition

The property management industry in the PRC is highly fragmented and competitive, with a few sizeable companies and numerous small-sized market participants. We primarily compete against large national, regional and local property management and commercial operational service companies. We believe our core competitiveness lies in factors including quality of services, business operation, price, financial resources, brand recognition and reputation. According to CIA, we ranked 55th among the 2020 Top 100 Property Management Companies in China and ranked 50th among the 2021 Top 100 Property Management Companies in China among the 2020 Top 100 Property Management Companies in China. We also ranked 36th among the 2020 Top 100 Property Management Companies in terms of total GFA under management of large-scale integrated property, 10th among the 2020 Top 100 Property Management Companies in terms of total GFA under management of large-scale integrated property in the Southwest Region, and fourth among the 2020 Top 100 Property Management Companies in terms of total GFA under management of large-scale integrated property in Chongqing. Our ability to effectively compete with these competitors and maintain or improve our market position depends on our ability to differentiate ourselves from our competitors through ensuring our service quality and consistency. In addition, our ability to maintain our industry reputation will affect our ability to source new and renew existing property management and commercial operational service contracts and expand our GFA under management. If we fail to source new and renew existing property management and commercial operational service contracts and expand our GFA under management, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our combined financial statements. Some of our accounting policies involve subjective assumptions and estimates, as well as complex judgements relating to accounting items. We set out below some of the accounting policies and estimates that we believe are of importance to us or involve the most significant estimates and judgements used in the preparation of our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies, judgements and estimates, which are important for understanding our financial condition and results of operations, are set out in further details in Notes 2 and 3 to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I to this document.

Revenue Recognition

We provide general property management services, non-property owner value-added services, community value-added services and commercial operational services. Revenue from providing services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered.

General property management services

For general property management services, we bill a fixed amount for services provided on a monthly basis and recognises as revenue in the amount to which we have a right to invoice and that corresponds directly with the value of performance completed.

For general property management services income from properties managed under lump-sum basis, where the Group acts as a principal and is primarily responsible for providing property management services to property owners, we recognise the fee received or receivable from property owners as our revenue and all related property management costs as our cost of services. For property management services income from properties managed under commission basis, we recognise the commission, which is calculated by certain percentage of the total property management fee received or receivable from the property units, or total property management cost incurred or accrual by the property units, as our revenue for arranging and monitoring the services as provided by other suppliers to the property owners.

Value-added services to non-property owners

Value added services to non-property owners include mainly i) sales centre management services, which are billed and settled based on actual level of services provided at pre-determined price and revenue is recognised when such services are provided and ii) property delivery related and other consulting services with property developers which are billed on monthly basis and revenue is recognised when the services are provided.

Community value-added services

For community value-added services, revenue is recognised when the related community value-added services are rendered. Community value-added services are normally billable immediately upon the services are rendered.

Commercial operational services

For commercial operational services, we bill a fixed amount for services provided on a monthly basis and recognise as revenue in the amount to which we have a right to invoice and that corresponds directly with the value of performance completed.

Joint Venture

A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of such arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions relating about relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

In combined financial statements, an investment in a joint venture is initially recognised at cost and subsequently accounted for using the equity method.

Under the equity method, our interest in the joint venture is carried at cost and adjusted for the post-acquisition changes in our share of the joint venture’s net assets less any identified impairment loss, unless it is classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale). The profit or loss for the year includes our share of the post-acquisition, post-tax results of the joint venture for the year, including any impairment loss on the investment in joint venture recognised for the year. Our other comprehensive income for the year includes its share of the joint venture’s other comprehensive income for the year.

Provision for impairment of trade and other receivables

We make allowances on trade and other receivables based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. We used judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on our past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying amount of trade and other receivables and provision for impairment in the periods in which such estimate has been changed.

As at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, the carrying amounts of trade and other receivables are RMB314.3 million, RMB412.1 million and RMB471.4 million, respectively. Details of the provision for impairment of trade and other receivables are set out in Note 18 to the Accountants’ Report as set out in Appendix I to this document.

Current and deferred income taxes

As detailed in Note 9 to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I to this document, we are subject to enterprise income tax in the PRC. Judgement is required in determining the amount of the provision for taxation and the timing of payment of the related taxations. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Deferred income tax assets relating to certain temporary differences and tax losses are recognised when management considers to be probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences or tax losses can be utilised. The outcome of their actual utilisation may be different.

ADOPTION OF HKFRS 9, HKFRS 15 AND HKFRS 16

Our historical financial information during the Track Record Period has been prepared based on the underlying financial statements, in which HKFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” and HKFRS 15 “Revenue from contracts with customers” and HKFRS 16 “Leases” have been applied consistently throughout the Track Record Period. As compared to HKAS 39, HKAS 18 and HKAS 17, the adoption of HKFRS 9, HKFRS 15 and HKFRS 16 did not have a significant impact on our financial position, performance or key financial ratios during the Track Record Period.

During the Track Record Period, key factors affecting our cost of sales under both property management services business line and commercial operational services business line were (i) staff costs and (ii) outsourcing expenses.

In addition, the implementation of favourable policies《關於階段性減免企業社會保險費的 ( 通知》(人社部發[2020]11號)) as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak for the reduction and waiver of social insurance contribution contributed to the decrease in our staff costs in 2020 as compared with 2019. If we do not enjoy such favourable policies in the future, our cost of sales may increase and gross profit margin may be negatively affected.

In 2018, 2019 and 2020, our effective tax rates were approximately 19.2%, 16.6% and 16.9%, respectively. Our effective income tax rates during the Track Record Period were lower than the Enterprise Income Tax (the “EIT”) rate of 25.0%, primarily because (i) certain of our subsidiaries and branches in Chongqing enjoyed the preferential tax rate of 15% for the Large-scale Development of the Western Region in China during the Track Record Period; and (ii) certain of our subsidiaries and branches enjoyed the preferential tax rate for micro and small enterprises.

We make our annual tax filings in accordance with the EIT Law, which provides that the annual tax filings for the year (the “EIT Annual Tax Filing”) is made and any final tax payment is settled within the first five months after the end of that year. We had current income tax expenses in the amount of RMB4.1 million, RMB5.3 million and RMB11.8 million in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, totaling to an amount of approximately RMB21.2 million. We paid income tax of RMB4.2 million, RMB7.5 million and RMB2.7 million in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, totally to an amount of approximately RMB14.4 million. Our current income tax

– 278 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION expenses for the Track Record Period exceeded our aggregate tax payments mainly because of the difference in the time we are required to pay our tax and the time we when record our income tax as our expenses.

In addition, before the adoption of the Accrual Basis (as defined below) for tax computation in the preparation of the EIT Annual Tax Filing for 2018, 2019 and 2020, some of our subsidiaries (the “Relevant Subsidiaries”) calculated taxes based on the amounts of property management fees they received and relevant expenses that it had paid (the “Cash Basis”). The Relevant Subsidiaries used the Cash Basis in tax computation because it would be practically convenient to provide relevant documentary evidence to the relevant tax authorities if requested. Pursuant to the relevant PRC requirements, accounts to be filed for income tax computation purpose should be, in principle, determined based on when the revenue of delivery of goods or rendering of services to customer is earned (the “Accrual Basis”), regardless of the timing of payment or collections; and for value-added tax (the “VAT”) computation purpose, it should be determined on the basis of the occurrence of the taxable activities and the earlier of payments being received by the Relevant Subsidiaries or the Relevant Subsidiaries having achieved the basis upon which it would be entitled to such payments. We identified this issue in preparing our combined financial statement for the [REDACTED] and we proactively consulted with the relevant PRC tax authority and made an one-off tax adjustment in the amount of RMB1.6 million mainly in relation to the timing difference in tax computation of 2018, 2019 and 2020 for EIT, VAT and other tax surcharge which was fully settled in June 2021.

We had no tax payment outstanding for the Track Record Period as at the date of this document. Considering that (i) as confirmed by our Directors, we have adopted the Accrual Basis for tax computation in EIT Annual Tax Filings starting from our EIT Annual Tax Filing for 2021; (ii) we have made the relevant adjustments for the abovementioned tax filing matters and no tax payment was outstanding; (iii) we have obtained the confirmation letters from the relevant tax authorities which, as advised by our PRC Legal Advisors, Commerce & Finance Law Offices, are the competent authorities to issue such confirmation letters, confirming that there was no illegal or non-compliance record in relation to tax for the Relevant Subsidiaries during the Track Record Period; (iv) the fact that our Directors have confirmed that, as at the Latest Practicable Date, we have not received any tax penalty in relation to the above-mentioned tax filing matters; (v) as advised by the Tax Advisors, Zhitong (Fujian) Registered Tax Agents Co., Ltd., the abovementioned difference in tax payment was mainly caused by the change of accounting policies and there was no material illegal or non-compliance activity identified in relation to the tax payment of the Relevant Subsidiaries, and the risk of the relevant PRC tax authorities imposing penalty on us due to the abovementioned tax filing matter is very low; and (vi) the fact that our Controlling Shareholders [have agreed] to indemnify us for all claims, costs, expenses, fines and/or penalties (if any) and losses incurred as a result of the above-mentioned tax filing matters, we were of the view that the tax filing matters discussed above were not material issues and would not have a material impact on our business, financial performance and results of operations.

During the Track Record Period and up to the Latest Practicable Date, save as regular random inspection by the relevant tax authorities, we were not subject to any investigation or inquiry by the relevant tax authorities and there were no matters in dispute or unresolved with any tax authorities.

REVIEW OF HISTORICAL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Year Ended 31 December 2020 Compared to Year Ended 31 December 2019

Revenue

Our revenue increased by approximately 7.6% from RMB224.2 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB241.4 million in the year ended 31 December 2020. This increase was driven by an increase in revenue from our property management services business line, and to a lesser extent, an increase in revenue from our commercial operational services business line.

Revenue from Property Management Services

Revenue from property management services increased by 8.8% from RMB186.8 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB203.3 million in the year ended 31 December 2020, primarily attributable to:

• an increase in revenue from general property management services by 4.9% from RMB141.5 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB148.4 million in the year ended 31 December 2020, which was primarily attributable to (i) the increase in our aggregate GFA under management from approximately 6.0 million sq.m. as at 31 December 2019 to approximately 6.4 million sq.m. as at 31 December 2020 through organic growth and (ii) the increase in our weighted average monthly property management fee from RMB2.25 per sq.m. in 2019 to RMB2.28 per sq.m. in 2020;

• an increase in revenue from value-added services to non-property owners by 6.8% from RMB26.5 million in 2019 to RMB28.3 million in 2020, which was primarily attributable to (i) the increase in our revenue for preliminary design and planning consultancy services and pre-delivery inspection services as a result of (a) the increase in GFA delivered to us from Ronghui Group in 2020; (b) recognition of preliminary design and planning consultancy services revenue in 2020 for three projects to be delivered in 2021; and (c) the increase in service fee rate; (ii) the increase in our revenue for repair and maintenance services in line with our growth of the number of projects under our management; and (iii) the increase in revenue for our sales centre management services as a result of an increase in the service area of the sales centres managed by us and the increase in our service fee rate, partially offset by the fall in our revenue for additional tailored services primarily as a result of re-delivery of certain public facilities back to the government and reduction in service area of certain municipal roads; and

• an increase in revenue from community value-added services by 41.2% from RMB18.8 million in 2019 to RMB26.5 million in 2020, which was primarily attributable to the increase in revenue generated from sales assistance services launched in 2019. Such rise in sales assistance services was primarily related to the increase in the number of car parking lots sales in 2020.

Revenue from Commercial Operational Services

Revenue from commercial operational services increased by 1.7% from RMB37.4 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB38.1 million in the year ended 31 December 2020, which was primarily attributable to an increase in revenue of RMB6.2 million from commercial operational services to property developers and property owners as we began to recognise revenue from market research and positioning services, tenant sourcing services and pre-opening preparatory services provided to Ronghui Hot Spring Town G1 Ronghui Plaza Shopping Centre which is planned to open in 2021 as well as Jinan 1904 Street; partially offset by a decrease by 14.9% from RMB37.4 million in 2019 to RMB31.8 million in 2020 for commercial operational services to tenants primarily because (i) we ceased to provide commercial operational services to projects in Wuhu in June 2019; (ii) certain community stores managed by us were sold by the property owners; and (iii) the decrease in commercial operational fee rate and occupancy rate due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

Cost of Sales

Our cost of sales decreased by approximately 0.5% from RMB166.4 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB165.5 million in the year ended 31 December 2020.

Cost of Sales for Property Management Services

Cost of sales for property management services business line decreased by 0.5% from RMB151.6 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB150.8 million in the year ended 31 December 2020, which was primarily attributable to (i) the decrease in staff costs despite a rise in revenue as we optimised the human resources structure and reduced the number of front line staff for basic services and the implementation of favourable policies《關於階段性減免企業社會保險費 ( 的通知》(人社部發[2020]11號)) as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak for the reduction and waiver of social insurance contribution. If we do not enjoy such favourable policies in the future, our gross profit margin may be negatively affected; (ii) a decrease in costs of materials as a result of COVID-19 personnel physical movement restriction leading to a reduction in the scale of our on-site work; and (iii) the decrease in electricity price by stages according to the relevant policies, which were partially offset by the increase in sub-contracting costs as a result of our human resources structure optimisation.

Cost of Sales for Commercial Operational Services

Cost of sales for commercial operational services business line decreased by 0.2% from RMB14.8 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB14.7 million in the year ended 31 December 2020, primarily due to the fact that we ceased to provide commercial operational services to projects in Wuhu in June 2019.

Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin

As a result of the foregoing, our gross profit increased by approximately 31.1% from RMB57.8 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB75.8 million in the year ended 31 December 2020.

– 281 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Our overall gross profit margin increased from 25.8% in the year ended 31 December 2019 to 31.4% in the year ended 31 December 2020, primarily reflecting the increases in gross profit margins of both property management services and commercial operational services.

Gross Profit Margin of Property Management Services

The gross profit margin of our property management services business line increased from 18.8% in the year ended 31 December 2019 to 25.8% in the year ended 31 December 2020. This increase was driven by (i) the decrease in staff costs as (a) we optimised the human resources structure and reduced the number of front line staff for basic services and (b) the implementation of favourable policies as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak for reduction and waiver of social insurance contribution; (ii) the decrease in electricity price by stages; and (iii) the rapid growth of our sales assistance services which have a relatively higher gross profit margin.

Gross Profit Margin of Commercial Operational Services

The gross profit margin of our commercial operational services business line increased from 60.6% in the year ended 31 December 2019 to 61.3% in the year ended 31 December 2020, primarily reflecting increases in gross profit margin of commercial operational services provided to property developers and owners from nil in the year ended 31 December 2019 to 71.5% in the year ended 31 December 2020, because we began to recognise revenue from market research and positioning services, tenant sourcing services and pre-opening preparatory services to Ronghui Hot Spring Town G1 Ronghui Plaza Shopping Centre which is planned to open in 2021 and Jinan 1904 Street.

Other (Losses)/Gains, Net

Our net other gains increased from RMB5.6 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB16.7 million in the year ended 31 December 2020. This increase was primarily due to the gain from sale of financial assets of RMB14.9 million as a result of the sale of our investment in listed securities.

Administrative Expenses

Our administrative expenses increased by approximately 25.2% from RMB21.1 million in the year ended 31 December 2019 to RMB26.5 million in the year ended 31 December 2020. This increase was primarily due to (i) the provision for impairment loss for our trade and other receivables; (ii) the increase in average salary and bonus of our management staff; and (iii) the engagement of professional parties for industry research, which were partially offset by a decrease of office expenses as we renovated our offices and replaced certain office supplies in 2019 which did not occur in 2020.

[REDACTED]-related Expenses

We recorded [REDACTED]-related expenses of RMB[REDACTED] in the year ended 31 December 2020 for the purpose of preparing for the [REDACTED].

Revenue from Property Management Services

Revenue from property management services increased by 13.3% from RMB164.8 million in the year ended 31 December 2018 to RMB186.8 million in the year ended 31 December 2019, primarily attributable to:

• an increase in revenue from general property management services by 12.9% from RMB125.4 million in the year ended 31 December 2018 to RMB141.5 million in the year ended 31 December 2019, which was primarily attributable to the increase in our total GFA under management over the same periods as a result of our business expansion.

• an increase in revenue from community value-added services by 14.1% from RMB16.5 million in the year ended 31 December 2018 to RMB18.8 million in the year ended 31 December 2019, which was mainly attributable to (i) the increase in the rental of common areas for our common area value-added services, primarily due to the increase in new property delivery and occupancy rate. Such increase in revenue includes advertising income, entrance fee for renovation wastes cleaning companies and rental for telecommunications stations; (ii) the increase in our temporary car park management fee rate and the number of temporary car parking lots under our management since the increasing residential occupancy rate of the properties under management contributed to the increase in demand for temporary parking lots; and (iii) the increase in our sales assistance service fees primarily due to our newly launched car parking lots sales services in 2019.

Other (Losses)/Gains, Net

We recorded net losses of RMB1.0 million in the year ended 31 December 2018 and net gains of RMB5.6 million in the year ended 31 December 2019.

Aging Analysis on Trade Receivables

The credit period of our trade receivables is normally within 30 days and 90 days from the issuance of payment requests for Independent Third Parties and related parties, respectively.

The following table sets forth the ageing analysis of our trade receivables based on the invoice date:

As at 31 December 2018 2019 2020 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000

0 – 30 days ...... 13,791 16,439 17,198 31 – 180 days ...... 4,066 11,074 9,513 181 – 365 days ...... 2,577 2,298 7,784 Over 1 year ...... 22,939 7,034 17,432

Total ...... 43,373 36,845 51,927

As at the Latest Practicable Date, RMB28.3 million, or approximately 54.5%, of our trade receivables as at 31 December 2020, were subsequently settled.

Provision for Impairment of Trade Receivables

Our provision for impairment of trade receivables was RMB5.7 million, RMB1.9 million and RMB2.5 million as at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. In determining impairment of financial assets, we assess on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses (the “ECL”) associated with our assets carried at amortised cost. For the provision of impairment of trade receivables, we applied the simplified approach permitted by HKFRS 9, which required lifetime ECL to be recognised from initial recognition of the trade receivables. See Notes 2.8 and 18 to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I to this document for further details.

Trade Receivables Turnover Days

The following table sets forth our trade receivables turnover days for the years indicated:

For the year ended 31 December 2018 2019 2020

Trade receivables turnover days(Note) . . . 93.5 65.3 67.1

Note: We calculate the trade receivables turnover days using the average of the beginning and ending balance of trade receivables (without taking into account impairment) for the year, divided by revenue for the relevant year, multiplied by the number of days in the relevant year.

During the Track Record Period, our trade receivable turnover days were 93.5 days, 65.3 days, and 67.1 days, respectively. The decrease of trade receivables turnover days in 2019 as compare to 2018 primarily reflected the collection of trade receivables from our related parties in 2019. Our trade receivables turnover days remained relatively stable in 2019 and 2020.

During the Track Record Period, trade receivables turnover days for the related parties were generally longer than for Independent Third Parties, mainly because we typically provide longer credit term to our related parties based on our established relationship and stable payment record and we believe the default risk of our related parties was low. We expect to recover and settle the majority of the outstanding trade receivables from related parties as at 31 December 2020 prior to [REDACTED].

We also plan to further enhance the trade receivables collection processes by implementing the following measures, including but not limited to (i) making phone calls, sending text messages, paying in-person visits, issuing legal collection letters to encouraging property owners and residents to repay property management fees; (ii) reviewing the payment status of our trade receivables on a monthly basis; and (iii) enhancing our collection efforts toward trade receivables from related parties, including proactively communicate with the related parties with respect to the settlement of long outstanding balances, issue and send invoices to the related parties regularly. Except for the balances with the related parties, our trade receivables relate to a number of diversified customers.

Our financial assets at fair value through profit or loss decreased from RMB12.8 million as at 31 December 2019 to nil as at 31 December 2020 because we disposed all financial assets held by us in 2020.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

We generate cash from our operating activities primarily from fees received for providing our property management services and commercial operational services, while cash used in our operating activities were primarily attributable to the payment of staff costs and payments for other working capital needs. Cash flows from operating activities can be significantly affected by factors such as the timing of collection of trade receivables from customers and the timing of payment of trade payables to suppliers during the ordinary course of our business, which also primarily accounted for the difference in the net cash generated from operating activities during the Track Record Period. Cash flows from operating activities reflects (i) profit before tax adjusted for non-cash and non-operating items, such as interest income, depreciation of property, plant and equipment, long-term equity investment; (ii) movements in working capital, such as increase or decrease in trade receivables and prepayments, other receivables and other assets, increase or decrease in trade payables, other payables and contract liabilities; and (iii) other cash items consisting of interested received and income tax paid.

Net cash generated from operating activities amounted to RMB53.3 million in 2018, primarily reflecting (i) profit before income tax of RMB22.9 million; (ii) positive adjustment of RMB6.2 million, which primarily reflecting the adjustment for RMB3.3 million provision for impairment loss on trade and other receivables; and (iii) positive movements in working capital of RMB28.4 million, which primarily reflected a RMB13.8 million decrease in trade and other receivables, a RMB9.4 million increase in trade payables and other payables, and an RMB5.8 million increase in contract liabilities.

Return on Equity

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT FINANCIAL RISKS

The main risks associated with our financial instruments are (i) credit risk; (ii) liquidity risk; (iii) market risk (including interest rate risk and foreign currency risk); and (iv) price risk. Our management regularly reviews and monitors our exposures to these risks in order to ensure appropriate measures are implemented in a timely and effective manner. As at the Latest Practicable Date, we did not hedge or consider necessary to hedge any of these risks. Details of the relevant risks and our policies for managing these risks are set out below. Please refer to Note 29 to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I to this document for more information.

Credit Risk

We are exposed to credit risk in relation to our bank deposits and trade and other receivables. Our maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets is limited to the carrying amount at the reporting dates.

To manage this risk, bank deposits are mainly placed with state-owned financial institutions and reputable banks which are all high-credit-quality financial institutions. Our management does not expect that there will be any significant losses from non- performance by these counterparties.

Please refer to Note 18 to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I to this document for more information about the provision for expected credit loss for trade and other receivables.

– 307 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

We have large number of counterparties for our other receivables other than those from related parties. There was no concentration of credit risk. We have monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, we review the recoverability of these receivables at the reporting date to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. We consider the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. Please refer to Note 2.8 to the Accountants’ Report in Appendix I to this document for more details about how we determine whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk relates to the risk that we will not be able to meet its obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. We are exposed to liquidity risk in respect of settlement of trade and other payables and also in respect of its cash flow management. Our objective is to maintain an appropriate level of liquid assets and committed lines of funding to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term.

Analysed below is our Group’s remaining contractual maturities for our non-derivative financial liabilities as at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020. When the creditor has a choice of when the liability is settled, the liability is included on the basis of the earliest date when our Group can be required to pay. Where the settlement of the liability is in instalments, each instalment is allocated to the earliest period in which our Group is committed to pay.

Interest Rate Risk

Other than the interest-bearing bank deposits, we have no other significant interest-bearing assets and liabilities. The Directors do not anticipate there is any significant impact to the interest-bearing assets resulted from the changes in interest rates, because the interest rates of bank balance are not expected to change significantly.

Foreign currency risk

We operate mainly in PRC and majority of the transactions are denominated and settled in the functional currency of respective entities within our Group, RMB.

Foreign currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency. As at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, we did not have significant foreign currency risk from our operations.

We do not hedge our foreign currency risk. However, our management monitors the foreign currency exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.

Price Risk

We have been exposed to the price risk of financial assets measured at FVTPL. We manage the equity price risk by placing limits on individual and total equity instruments. Reports on the equity portfolio are submitted to our senior management on a regular basis. The Directors review and approve all equity investment decisions.

If the price of financial assets measured at FVTPL had been 5% increased/decreased, post-tax profit for the year ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020 would have been increased/decreased by approximately RMB316,000, RMB482,000 and nil, respectively.

DIVIDEND POLICY AND DISTRIBUTABLE RESERVE

In March 2021, certain of our subsidiaries declared dividends of an aggregate amount of RMB89.0 million to their then shareholders to offset related parties receivables. Save as above, we did not declare any dividends during the Track Record Period.

As we are a holding company, our ability to declare and pay dividends will depend on receipt of sufficient funds from our subsidiaries. The payment and the amount of any future dividends, if any, will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will also depend on various factors that our Board of Directors deem relevant. Any declaration and payment as well as the amount of dividends will be subject to our constitutional documents and the relevant laws. Any future declaration and payment of dividend is subject to the absolute discretion of our Board of Directors, and, after the [REDACTED], any declaration of final dividend for the year will be subject to the approval of our Shareholders. As our Company was incorporated on 1 February 2021, our Company did not have any available distributable reserve as at 31 December 2020.

Criteria for Strategic Acquisitions and Investments

Although our Directors had not identified any suitable targets as at the Latest Practicable Date, we have determined the criteria for evaluating potential targets based on the results of our constant research, financial due diligence and preliminary assessments in this regard. Please refer to the paragraph headed “– [REDACTED]” above for further details for our criteria for strategic acquisitions and investments.

Availability of Suitable Targets

According to CIA, with nearly 200,000 property management companies operating in the PRC in 2020, accelerated market concentration is a key trend in the highly competitive and fragmented PRC property management industry, and leading property management service providers are seeking access to enhance management standards and core competitiveness through mergers and acquisitions. The total capital required for the acquisition of, or investment in, such potential targets would depend, to a large extent, on the size and number of the targets. The determination of investment cost for each target is further subject to the percentage of equity interest to acquire, operation scale of the target, the financial performance and position of the target and our evaluation of the target’s worthiness and potential with reference to the market value. As advised by CIA, our Directors believe that our criteria for strategic acquisitions and investments are in line with the industry practice and there are a rich variety of potential targets available for our consideration in such fragmented property management service and commercial operational industries. Leveraging the trend of industry consolidation, our established market position and extensive industrial experience, as well as efforts of our professional business development teams, we believe that we may find suitable targets for our acquisition and investment plan will be able to implement our acquisition and investment strategies successfully.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, we had not identified or committed to any acquisition or investment targets. Based on our calculation, we plan to acquire/invest in two to five companies, including property management companies, commercial operational services providers or companies that can create synergies with our community value-added services and smart management system, before 2023 with the [REDACTED]fromthe[REDACTED]. If the considerations to be paid for these acquisitions and investments exceed the [REDACTED]from the [REDACTED], we believe that we will be able to utilise the funds from other sources to finance the acquisitions and investments.

Cost-Benefit Analysis for Strategic Acquisitions and Investments

According to CIA, while the property management market in China is becoming increasingly concentrated, the PRC property management industry is still fragmented and competitive. In addition, the commercial operational market is relatively fragmented. Large-scale property management companies or commercial operational services companies actively improve their strategic layout and accelerate their business expansion in order to increase their market shares and achieve better results of operations, primarily through organic growth as well as strategic acquisitions and investments. Moreover, we believe companies with specialised value-added services can provide valuable experience and customer base that can create synergy with our existing services and develop innovative new value-added service. Our Directors are of the view that the strategic acquisition and investments will be beneficial to our business strategy to further expand our business scale and market share based on the following analysis:

• Minimising the time required for organic growth

On one hand, based on our past experience, it generally takes six to 12 months for us to expand our property management services or commercial operational services portfolio by way of organic growth, comprising (i) approximately three months for onsite inspection of the target market where it is a new market; (ii) approximately one month for the establishment of the branch company or subsidiary for a new market; (iii) approximately two to three months for conducting business development activities to obtain property projects; and (iv) approximately three to six months for taking over existing property projects, recruitment and training of employees. On the other hand, based on our research and internal study, our Directors estimate that it generally takes approximately three to nine months to complete an acquisition or investment in a property management or commercial operational services company, depending on the complexity, location, scale and service offerings of the target company, comprising (i) approximately one to six months for the valuation, due diligence and negotiation; (ii) approximately one to two months for execution of relevant agreements; and (iii) approximately one month for integrating the management team of the acquired company into our system. Our Directors are of the view that strategic acquisitions and investments are more time efficient for the purpose of expanding our presence.

– 328 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. FUTURE PLANS AND USE OF [REDACTED]

• Minimising the uncertainties and additional costs associated with organic growth

We believe that when we expand our business through organic growth, we may face many uncertainties in local/regional social culture and market environment, which may require more time to adapt to the differences and further extend the payback period for the costs incurred. In addition, in seeking to obtain new projects as part of our organic growth, we face the uncertainties of not being able to fully understand or match the requirements of new customers thereby risk losing tenders to parties who may have a past or existing relationship with those customers. In some cases, we may also have to sacrifice our profit margins to win tenders for projects to compensate for a lack of past relationship or understanding with the relevant customer.

Alternatively, strategic acquisition and investment not only can effectively save time for expanding our service network, but also increase our technical and managerial talents, help to adapt our management model based on the local social culture and market environment, control the risks associated with new projects or long-distance management and save monetary costs. In addition, our Directors consider that the acquisition or investment will also allow us to diversify our customer base as we will have convenient access to the existing customer base of the target companies upon acquisition or investment. Inheriting existing projects that have been managed by the target company will avoid the risks and uncertainties in respect of bidding for new projects as described above and expand our revenue stream in a short period of time. Such expansion method also enhances resource utilisation, resulting in better market resource allocation, resource sharing and stronger business alliances.

Compared with organic growth to new markets, strategic acquisitions and investments can secure a more stable source of income and predictable investment payback with reference to the financial performance and the existing customer base of the targets. We will conduct valuation and due diligence on the target companies to make sure the investment payback. However, if we decide to grow our business organically especially in new markets, there is no objective and reliable benchmark for us to estimate the timeframe required for achieving investment payback in relation to the cost of recruiting, retaining and/or training up the relevant personnel and skilled workers because of our lack of an established customer base in the new markets.

Although we had been expanding our business primarily through organic growth since inception, we believe that expansion through strategic acquisitions and investments will enable us to gain access to new markets faster, expand our market share in our existing markets and expand our property management or commercial operational services portfolio in an efficient and secured manner, and therefore constitute an alternative way to effectively achieve our business strategy to further expand our business scale and market share.

The directors anticipate that all of the new and amended HKFRSs will be adopted in the Group’s accounting policy for the first period beginning on or after the effective date of the new and amended HKFRSs. These new and amended HKFRSs are not expected to have a material impact on the Historical Financial Information.

2.2 Basis of consolidation and combination

The Historical Financial Information incorporates the financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries made up to respective year end dates during the Track Record Period.

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. When assessing whether the Group has power over the entity, only substantive rights relating to the entity (held by the Group and others) are considered.

The Group includes the income and expenses of subsidiaries in the Historical Financial Information from the date it gains control until the date when the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains and losses on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.

– I-15 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

Non-controlling interests represent the equity on a subsidiary not attributable directly or indirectly to the Company, and in respect of which the Group has not agreed any additional terms with the holders of those interests which would result in the Group as a whole having a contractual obligation in respect of those interests that meets the definition of a financial liability. For each business combination, the Group can elect to measure any non-controlling interests either at fair value or at their proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net identifiable assets.

Non-controlling interests are presented in the combined statement of financial position within equity, separately from the equity attributable to the owners of the Company. Non-controlling interests in the results of the Group are presented on the face of the combined statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as an allocation of the total profit or loss and total comprehensive income for the year between non- controlling interests and the owners of the Company.

Business combinations under common control

The Historical Financial Information incorporates the financial statement items of the entities or businesses in which the common control combination occurs as if they had been combined from the date when the entities or businesses first came under the control of the controlling party.

The net assets of the combining entities or businesses are combined using the existing book values from the controlling party’s perspective. No amount is recognised in consideration for goodwill or excess of acquirer’s interest in the net fair value of acquirer’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the time of common control combination, to the extent of the continuation of the controlling party’s interest.

The combined statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income include the results of each of the combining entities or businesses from the earliest date presented or since the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under the common control, where this is a shorter period, regardless of the date of the common control combination.

A uniform set of accounting policies is adopted by those entities. All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between combining entities or businesses are eliminated.

In the Company’s statement of financial position, subsidiaries are carried at cost less any impairment loss unless the subsidiary is held for sale or included in a disposal group. Cost also includes direct attributable costs of investment.

The results of subsidiaries are accounted for by the Company on the basis of dividends received and receivable at the reporting date. All dividends whether received out of the investee’s pre or post-acquisition profits are recognised in the Company’s profit or loss.

2.3 Foreign currency translation

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial information of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The Historical Financial Information are presented in RMB, which is the same as the Company’s functional currency.

(b) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are re-measured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the profit or loss.

– I-16 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

(c) Group companies

The results and financial position of all the group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyper-inflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

• assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement of financial position;

• income and expenses for each statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and

• all resulting currency translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

2.4 Joint venture

A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions relating about relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

In combined financial statements, an investment in a joint venture is initially recognised at cost and subsequently accounted for using the equity method.

Under the equity method, the Group’s interest in the joint venture is carried at cost and adjusted for the post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of the joint venture’s net assets less any identified impairment loss, unless it is classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale). The profit or loss for the year includes the Group’s share of the post-acquisition, post-tax results of the joint venture for the year, including any impairment loss on the investment in joint venture recognised for the year. The Group’s other comprehensive income for the year includes its share of the joint venture’s other comprehensive income for the year.

2.5 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment (other than construction-in-progress) are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use.

Properties in the course of construction for production, supply or administrative purposes are carried at cost, less any recognised impairment loss. Costs include professional fees and, for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy. Such properties are classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

Depreciation on assets other than construction-in-progress is provided to write off the cost less their residual values over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method, as follows:

Machineries 20%-33.3% Furniture and fixtures and office equipment 20%-33.3% Motor vehicles 20%-33.3% Leasehold improvements 20% or over the remaining term of the lease, if shorter

The assets’ depreciation methods, residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each of the Track Record Period.

– I-17 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

The gain or loss arising on retirement or disposal is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other costs, such as repairs and maintenance, are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

2.6 Intangible assets

Acquired software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. These costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives (2-5 years). Amortisation commences when the intangible assets are available for use.

After initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

The assets’ amortisation methods and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each of the Track Record Period.

2.7 Financial assets

i) Classification

The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

• those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and

• those to be measured at amortised cost.

The classification depends on the Group’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.

For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held.

For investments in equity instruments, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.

The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.

ii) Recognition and measurement

At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.

– I-18 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

Debt instruments

Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are two measurement categories into which the Group classifies its debt instruments:

• Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in the profit or loss presented in “Finance costs, net” when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is calculated using the effective interest rate method.

• Fair value through profit or loss: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt instruments that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in profit or loss and presented net within profit or loss in the period in which it arises.

iii) Derecognition of financial assets

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.

2.8 Impairment of financial assets

The Group assesses on a forward -looking basis the expected credit losses (“ECL”) associated with its assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by HKFRS 9, which required lifetime ECL to be recognised from initial recognition of the trade receivables. When the assessment is performed on a collective basis, the financial instruments are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics, such as past due status and credit risk ratings.

Impairment on other receivables are measured as either 12-month ECL or lifetime ECL, depending on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If a significant increase in credit risk of a receivable has occurred since initial recognition, then impairment is measured as lifetime ECL.

Impairment on bank balances are considered to be insignificant because the counterparties are banks/financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.

Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

12-month ECLs are the portion of ECL that results from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months).

In all cases, the maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk.

ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive).

Significant increases in credit risk

In assessing whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group compares the risk of default occurring on the financial instrument assessed at the reporting date with that assessed at the date of initial recognition. In making this reassessment, the Group considers that a default event occurs when the debtor is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, without recourse by the Group to actions such as realising security (if any is held). The Group considers both quantitative and qualitative information that is reasonable and supportable including historical experience and forward-looking information that is available without undue cost or effort.

In particular, the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition:

– failure to make payments of principal or interest on their contractually due dates;

– an actual or expected significant deterioration in a financial instrument’s external or internal credit rating (if available);

– an actual or expected significant deterioration in the operating results of the debtor; and

– existing or forecast changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment that have a significant adverse effect on the debtor’s ability to meet its obligation to the Group.

Irrespective of the outcome of the above assessment, the Group presumes that the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due, unless the Group has reasonable and supportable information that demonstrates otherwise.

Depending on the nature of the financial instruments, the assessment of a significant increase in credit risk is performed on either an individual basis or a collective basis.

ECLs are re-measured at each reporting date to reflect changes in the financial instrument’s credit risk since initial recognition. Any change in the ECL amount is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in the profit or loss. The Group recognises an impairment gain or loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account.

Credit-impaired financial assets

At each reporting date, the Group assesses on a forward -looking basis whether financial assets carried at amortised cost are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

For internal credit risk management, the Group considers an event of default occurs when (i) information developed internally or obtained from external sources indicates that the debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors, including the Group, in full (without taking into account any collateral held by the Group); or (ii) the financial asset is 90 days past due.

Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable events:

– Significant financial difficulty of the debtor;

– A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

– It becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;

– Significant changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment that have an adverse effect on the debtor; and

– The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

Write-off policy

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. Subsequent recoveries of an assets that was previously written off are recognised in profit or loss of the period in which the reversal occurs.

2.9 Inventories

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost of completion and applicable selling expenses.

2.10 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash at banks and in hand.

2.11 Financial liabilities

The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables.

Financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All interest related charges are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.

Trade and other payables

These are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.12 Contract assets and contract liabilities

A contract asset is recognised when the Group recognises revenue (see Note 2.16) before being unconditionally entitled to the consideration under the payment terms set out in the contract. Contract assets are assessed for ECL in accordance with the policy set out in Note 2.8 and are reclassified to receivables when the right to the consideration has become unconditional (see Note 2.7).

A contract liability is recognised when the customer pays consideration before the Group recognises the related revenue (see note 2.16). A contract liability would also be recognised if the Group has an unconditional right to receive consideration before the Group recognises the related revenue. In such cases, a corresponding receivable would also be recognised (see note 2.7).

For a single contract with the customer, either a net contract asset or a net contract liability is presented. For multiple contracts, contract assets and contract liabilities of unrelated contracts are not presented on a net basis.

2.13 Leases

At inception of a contract, the Group considers whether a contract is, or contains a lease. A lease is defined as ‘a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an identified asset (the underlying asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To apply this definition, the Group assesses whether the contract meets three key evaluations which are whether:

• the contract contains an identified asset, which is either explicitly identified in the contract or implicitly specified by being identified at the time the asset is made available to the Group;

– I-21 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

• the Group has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset throughout the period of use, considering its rights within the defined scope of the contract; and

• the Group has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use. The Group assess whether it has the right to direct ‘how and for what purpose’ the asset is used throughout the period of use.

Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee

At lease commencement date, the Group recognised a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the combined statement of financial position. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial direct costs incurred by the Group, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset at the end of the lease, and any lease payments made in advance of the lease commencement date (net of any lease incentives received).

The Group depreciates the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term unless the Group is reasonably certain to obtain ownership at the end of the lease term. The Group also assesses the right-of-use asset (except for those meeting the definition of investment properties) for impairment when such indicator exists.

At the commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments unpaid at that date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up of fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable payments based on an index or rate, and amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payment of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate.

Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability will be reduced for lease payments made and increased for interest cost on the lease liability. It is remeasured to reflect any reassessment or lease modification, or if there are changes in in-substance fixed payments. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

When the lease is remeasured, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the right-of- use asset, or profit and loss if the right-of-use asset is already reduced to zero.

The Group has elected to account for short-term leases using the practical expedients. Instead of recognised a right-of-use asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to these leases are recognised as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 month or less.

Refundable rental deposits paid are accounted for under HKFRS 9 and initially measured at fair value. Adjustments to fair value at initial recognition are considered as additional lease payments and included in the cost of right-of-use assets.

2.14 Provisions and contingent liabilities

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation.

All provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or

– I-22 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

non-occurrence of one or more future uncertain events not wholly within the control of the Group, are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.

Contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination which are present obligations at the date of acquisition are initially recognised at fair value, provided the fair value can be reliably measured. After the initial recognition at fair value, such contingent liabilities are recognised at the higher of the amount initially recognised, less accumulated recognised where appropriate, and the amount that would be recognised in a comparable provision as described above. Contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination that cannot be reliably fair valued or were not present obligations at the date of acquisition are disclosed as per above.

2.15 Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Share capital is determined using the nominal value of shares that have been issued. Any transaction costs associated with the issuing of shares are deduction from share premium (net of any related income tax benefit) to the extent they are incremental costs directly attributable to the equity transaction.

2.16 Revenue recognition

The Group provides property management services and commercial operational services. Revenue from providing services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered.

Property management services

For property management services, the Group bills a fixed amount for services provided on a monthly basis and recognises as revenue in the amount to which the Group has a right to invoice and that corresponds directly with the value of performance completed.

General property management services

For general property management services income from properties managed under lump-sum basis, where the Group acts as a principal and is primary responsible for providing the property management services to the property owners, the Group recognises the fee received or receivable from property owners as its revenue and all related property management costs as its cost of services.

Value added services to non-property owners

Value added services to non-property owners include mainly i) on-site sales assistance services, which primarily included cleaning and security services to non-property owners, which are billed and settled based on actual level of services provided at pre-determined price and revenue is recognised when such services are provided and ii) property delivery related and other consulting services with non-property owners which are billed on monthly basis and revenue is recognised overtime when the services are provided.

Community value-added services

For community value-added services, revenue is recognised when the related community value-added services provided to property owners, property owners’ associations and residents are rendered. Community related services are normally billable immediately upon the services are rendered and revenue is recognised overtime when the services are provided.

Commercial operational services

For commercial operational services, the Group bills a fixed amount for services provided on a monthly basis and recognises as revenue in the amount to which the Group has a right to invoice and that corresponds directly with the value of performance completed.

If contracts involve the sale of multiple services, the transaction price will be allocated to each performance obligation based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. If the stand-alone selling prices are not directly observable, they are estimated based on expected cost plus a margin or adjusted market assessment approach, depending on the availability of observable information.

– I-23 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

When either party to a contract has performed, the Group presents the contract in the combined statements of financial position as a contract asset or a contract liability, depending on the relationship between the Group’s performance and the customer’s payment.

A contract asset is the Group’s right to consideration in exchange for services that the Group has transferred to a customer. Incremental costs incurred to obtain a contract, if recoverable, are capitalised and presented as assets and subsequently amortised when the related revenue is recognised.

If a customer pays consideration or the Group has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, before the Group transfers services to the customer, the Group recognises the contract as a contract liability when the payment is received or a receivable is recorded (whichever is earlier). A contract liability is the Group’s obligation to transfer services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer.

A receivable is recorded when the Group has an unconditional right to consideration. A right to consideration is unconditional if only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due.

2.17 Interest income

Interest income is recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.

2.18 Government grants

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all attached conditions. Government grants are deferred and recognised in profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that the grants are intended to compensate. Government grants relating to the purchase of assets are included in other payables as deferred government grants in the combined statements of financial position and are recognised in profit or loss on a straight line basis over the expected lives of the related assets/deducted from the carrying amount of the asset and consequently are effectively recognised in profit or loss over the useful life of the asset by way of reduced depreciation expense.

Government grants relating to income is presented in gross under “Other (losses)/gains, net” in the combined statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

2.19 Impairment of non-financial assets

Property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, right-of-use assets and the Company’s interests in subsidiaries and a joint venture are subject to impairment testing. They are tested for impairment whenever there are indications that the asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable.

An impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value, reflecting market conditions less costs of disposal, and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of time value of money and the risk specific to the asset.

For the purposes of assessing impairment, where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent from those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows independently (i.e. a cash- generating unit). As a result, some assets are tested individually for impairment and some are tested at cash-generating unit level.

Impairment losses are charged pro rata to the assets in the cash generating unit, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less costs of disposal, or value in use, if determinable.

An impairment loss is reversed and recognised as income immediately if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount and only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

2.20 Employee benefits

Retirement benefit

In accordance with the rules and regulations in the PRC, the PRC based employees of the Group participate in various defined contributions retirement benefit plans organised by the relevant municipal and provincial governments in the PRC under which the Group and the PRC based employees are required to make monthly contributions to these plans calculated as a percentage of the employees’ salaries, subject to a certain ceiling.

The municipal and provincial governments undertake to assure the retirement benefit obligations of all existing and future retired PRC based employees payable under the plans described above. Other than the monthly contributions, the Group has no further obligation for the payment of retirement and other post-retirement benefits of its employees.

The assets of these plans are held separately from those of the Group in independent administrated funds managed by the PRC government. The Group’s contributions to the defined contribution retirement scheme are expensed as incurred.

Housing funds, medical insurances and other social insurances

Employees of the Group in the PRC are entitled to participate in various government- supervised housing funds, medical insurances and other social insurance plan. The Group contributes on a monthly basis to these funds based on certain percentages of the salaries of the employees, subject to certain ceiling. The Group’s liability in respect of these funds is limited to the contributions payable in each of the Track Record Period.

Contributions to the housing funds, medical insurances and other social insurances are expensed as incurred.

Short-term employee benefits

Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to each reporting date. Non-accumulative compensated absences such as sick leave and maternity leave are not recognised until the time of leave.

2.21 Accounting for income tax

Income tax comprises current tax and deferred tax.

Current income tax assets and/or liabilities comprise those obligations to, or claims from, fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting period, that are unpaid at the reporting date. They are calculated according to the tax rates and tax laws applicable to the fiscal periods to which they relate, based on the taxable profit for the year. All changes to current tax assets or liabilities are recognised as a component of tax expense in profit or loss.

Deferred tax is calculated using the liability method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, tax losses available to be carried forward as well as other unused tax credits, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit, including existing taxable temporary differences, will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither taxable nor accounting profit or loss.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

– I-25 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

Deferred tax is calculated, without discounting, at tax rates that are expected to apply in the period the liability is settled or the asset realised, provided they are enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognised in profit or loss, or in other comprehensive income or directly in equity if they relate to items that are charged or credited to other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are presented in net if, and only if,

(a) the Group has the legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts; and

(b) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The Group presents deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities in net if, and only if,

(a) the entity has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and

(b) the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either:

(i) the same taxable entity; or

(ii) different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

2.22 Segment reporting

The Group identifies operating segments and prepares segment information based on the regular internal financial information reported to the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) for their decisions about resources allocation to the Group’s business components and for their review of the performance of those components. The business components in the internal financial information reported to the CODM are determined following the Group’s major product and service lines.

2.23 Dividend distribution

Dividend distribution to the Company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Company’s Historical Financial Information in the period which the dividends are approved by the Company’s shareholders or board of directors, where appropriate.

2.24 Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the combined statements of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

2.25 Related parties

(a) the party is a person or a close member of that person’s family and if that person:

(i) has control or joint control of the Group;

(ii) has significant influence over the Group; or

(viii) the entity, or any member of a group of which it is a part, provides key management personnel services to the Group or to the parent of the Group.

Close members of the family of a person are those family members who may be expected to influence, or be influenced by, that person in their dealings with the entity.

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:

Provision for impairment of trade and other receivables

The Group makes allowances on trade and other receivables based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Group used judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Group’s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward -looking estimates at the end of each Track Record Period.

Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying amount of trade and other receivables and provision for impairment in the periods in which such estimate has been changed.

As at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, the carrying amounts of trade and other receivables (excluding prepayment) are RMB314,953,000, RMB410,971,000 and RMB470,087,000, respectively. Details of the provision for impairment of trade and other receivables are set out in Note 18.

Current and deferred income taxes

As detailed in Note 9, the Group is subject to Enterprise Income Tax in the PRC. Judgement is required in determining the amount of the provision for taxation and the timing of payment of the related taxations. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

– I-27 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

Deferred income tax assets relating to certain temporary differences and tax losses are recognised when management considers to be probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences or tax losses can be utilised. The outcome of their actual utilisation may be different.

The directors of the Company considered that the fair values of trade and other receivables are not materially different from their carrying amounts because these amounts have short maturity periods on their inception.

a) Trade receivables

Trade receivables mainly arise from property management services managed under lump sum basis, value added services to non-property owners, community-related value added services and commercial management services.

Property management services income under lump sum basis are received in accordance with the term of the relevant property service agreements. Service income from property management services is due for payment by property owners upon rendering of services.

The credit period is normally within 30 days and 90 days from the issuance of payment requests for third parties and related parties respectively.

The ageing analysis of trade receivables at the end of each of the Track Record Period, based on invoice date and due date, is as follows:

As at 31 December 2018 2019 2020 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000

0 – 30 days 13,791 16,439 17,198 31 – 180 days 4,066 11,074 9,513 181 – 365 days 2,577 2,298 7,784 Over 1 year 22,939 7,034 17,432

43,373 36,845 51,927

The Group applies the simplified approach to provide for ECL prescribed by HKFRS 9, which permits the use of the lifetime ECL provision for all trade receivables. To measure the ECL, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the ageing.

The Group did not hold any collateral as security or other credit enhancements over the impaired trade receivables, whether determined on an individual or collective basis.

b) Other receivables

Other receivables

The amounts mainly represent the payments on behalf of property owners in respect of utilities and maintenance costs of the properties and advances for various expenses to be incurred in the ordinary course of business.

Provision for impairment of other receivables

Except for an other receivable of RMB1,324,000 which was provided 100% allowance rate, impairment on other receivables from third parties (excluding prepayments and advance to employees) are assessed individually and measured as either 12-month expected credit loss or lifetime expected credit loss, depending on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. Impairment on amounts due from related parties was limited to 12-month expected credit losses, which was 0.5% allowance rate, since the related parties have a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow in the near term.

29. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Group is exposed to financial risks through its use of financial instruments in its ordinary course of operations and in its investment activities. The financial risks include credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk (including interest rate risk and foreign currency risk). The Group’s overall risk management strategy seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance. Risk management is carried out by the senior management of the Group and approved by the board of directors.

29.1 Categories of financial assets and liabilities

The carrying amounts presented in the combined statements of financial position relate to the following categories of financial assets and financial liabilities:

As at 31 December 2018 2019 2020 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000

107,120 102,102 109,198

29.2 Credit risk

The Group is exposed to credit risk in relation to its bank deposits and trade and other receivables. The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets is limited to the carrying amount at the reporting dates.

To manage this risk, bank deposits are mainly placed with state-owned financial institutions and reputable banks which are all high-credit-quality financial institutions. The management does not expect that there will be any significant losses from non- performance by these counterparties.

The provision for expected credit loss for trade and other receivables was detailed in Note 18.

The Group has large number of counterparties for its other receivables other than those from related parties. There was no concentration of credit risk. The Group has monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverability of these receivables at the reporting date to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. The Group considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. Note 2.8 details how the Group determines whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

29.3 Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk relates to the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group is exposed to liquidity risk in respect of settlement of trade and other payables and also in respect of its cash flow management. The Group’s objective is to maintain an appropriate level of liquid assets and committed lines of funding to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term.

Analysed below is the Group’s remaining contractual maturities for its non-derivative financial liabilities as at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020. When the creditor has a choice of when the liability is settled, the liability is included on the basis of the earliest date when the Group can be required to pay. Where the settlement of the liability is in instalments, each instalment is allocated to the earliest period in which the Group is committed to pay.

For financial guarantee provided to related companies, please refer to note 27(d) for details.

29.4 Interest rate risk

Other than the interest-bearing bank deposits, the Group has no other significant interest-bearing assets and liabilities. The directors of the Company do not anticipate there is any significant impact to the interest-bearing assets resulted from the changes in interest rates, because the interest rates of bank balance are not expected to change significantly.

29.5 Foreign currency risk

The Group operates mainly in PRC and majority of the transactions are denominated and settled in the functional currency of respective entities within the Group, RMB.

Foreign currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency. As at 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020, the Group did not have significant foreign currency risk from its operations.

– I-57 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

The Group does not hedge its foreign currency risk. However, management monitors the foreign currency exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.

29.6 Price risk

The Group has been exposed to the price risk of financial assets measured at FVTPL. The Group manages the equity price risk by placing limits on individual and total equity instruments. Reports on the equity portfolio are submitted to the Group’s senior management on a regular basis. The Group’s directors review and approve all equity investment decisions.

If the price of financial assets measured at FVTPL had been 5% increased/decreased, post-tax profit for the year ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020 would have been increased/decreased by approximately RMB316,000, RMB482,000 and Nil respectively.

29.7 Fair value estimation

The table below analyses the Group’s financial instruments carried at fair value for the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020 by level of inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Such inputs are categorised into three levels within a fair value hierarchy as follows:

• Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1).

• Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices) (Level 2).

• Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (Level 3).

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000

As at 31 December 2018 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss – Equity securities 8,429 – –

As at 31 December 2019 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss – Equity securities 12,847 – –

As at 31 December 2020 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss – Equity securities – – –

There were no transfers among levels 1, 2 and 3 during the years ended 31 December 2018, 2019 and 2020.

The fair value of the financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is based on quoted market prices at the end of each Track Record Period.

The carrying amounts of the Group’s other financial assets and liabilities including cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and approximate their fair values due to their short maturities or the impact of discounting is not significant.

30. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Group’s capital management objectives are to ensure the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide an adequate return to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to enhance shareholders’ value in the long term.

– I-58 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

1. MEMORANDUM OF ASSOCIATION

1.1 The Memorandum provides, inter alia, that the liability of members of the Company is limited and that the objects for which the Company is established are unrestricted (and therefore include acting as an investment company), and that the Company shall have and be capable of exercising any and all of the powers at any time or from time to time exercisable by a natural person or body corporate whether as principal, agent, contractor or otherwise and, since the Company is an exempted company, that the Company will not trade in the Cayman Islands with any person, firm or corporation except in furtherance of the business of the Company carried on outside the Cayman Islands.

1.2 By special resolution the Company may alter the Memorandum with respect to any objects, powers or other matters specified in it.

2. ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

The Articles were conditionally adopted on [●]. A summary of certain provisions of the Articles is set out below.

2.1 Shares

(a) Classes of shares

The share capital of the Company consists of ordinary shares.

(b) Variation of rights of existing shares or classes of shares

Subject to the Cayman Companies Act, if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes of shares, all or any of the special rights attached to any class of shares may (unless otherwise provided for by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) be varied, modified or abrogated either with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than three-fourths in nominal value of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. The provisions of the Articles relating to general meetings shall mutatis mutandis apply to every such separate general meeting, provided that the necessary quorum (other than at an adjourned meeting) shall be not less than two persons together holding (or, in the case of a shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or representing by proxy not less than one-third in nominal value of the issued shares

– III-1 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

of that class. Every holder of shares of the class shall be entitled on a poll to one vote for every such share held by him, and any holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll.

Any special rights conferred upon the holders of any shares or class of shares shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided in the rights attaching to the terms of issue of such shares, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith.

(c) Alteration of capital

The Company may, by an ordinary resolution of its members: (a) increase its share capital by the creation of new shares of such amount as it thinks expedient; (b) consolidate or divide all or any of its share capital into shares of larger or smaller amount than its existing shares; (c) divide its unissued shares into several classes and attach to such shares any preferential, deferred, qualified or special rights, privileges or conditions; (d) subdivide its shares or any of them into shares of an amount smaller than that fixed by the Memorandum; (e) cancel any shares which, at the date of the resolution, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled; (f) make provision for the allotment and issue of shares which do not carry any voting rights; (g) change the currency of denomination of its share capital; and (h) reduce its share premium account in any manner authorised and subject to any conditions prescribed by law.

Execution of the instrument of transfer shall be by or on behalf of the transferor and the transferee, provided that the Board may dispense with the execution of the instrument of transfer by the transferor or transferee or accept mechanically executed transfers. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of a share until the name of the transferee is entered in the register of members of the Company in respect of that share.

The Board may, in its absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time remove any share on the principal register to any branch register or any share on any branch register to the principal register or any other branch register.

Unless the Board otherwise agrees, no shares on the principal register shall be removed to any branch register nor shall shares on any branch register be removed

– III-2 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

to the principal register or any other branch register. All removals and other documents of title shall be lodged for registration and registered, in the case of shares on any branch register, at the relevant registration office and, in the case of shares on the principal register, at the place at which the principal register is located.

The Board may, in its absolute discretion, decline to register a transfer of any share (not being a fully paid up share) to a person of whom it does not approve or on which the Company has a lien. It may also decline to register a transfer of any share issued under any share option scheme upon which a restriction on transfer subsists or a transfer of any share to more than four joint holders.

The Board may decline to recognise any instrument of transfer unless a certain fee, up to such maximum sum as the Stock Exchange may determine to be payable, is paid to the Company, the instrument of transfer is properly stamped (if applicable), is in respect of only one class of share and is lodged at the relevant registration office or the place at which the principal register is located accompanied by the relevant share certificate(s) and such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require is provided to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer (and if the instrument of transfer is executed by some other person on his behalf, the authority of that person so to do).

The register of members may, subject to the Listing Rules, be closed at such time or for such period not exceeding in the whole 30 days in each year as the Board may determine (or such longer period as the members of the Company may by ordinary resolution determine, provided that such period shall not be extended beyond 60 days in any year).

Fully paid shares shall be free from any restriction on transfer (except when permitted by the Stock Exchange) and shall also be free from all liens.

(e) Power of the Company to purchase its own shares

The Company may purchase its own shares subject to certain restrictions and the Board may only exercise this power on behalf of the Company subject to any applicable requirement imposed from time to time by the Articles or any code, rules or regulations issued from time to time by the Stock Exchange and/or the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong.

Where the Company purchases for redemption a redeemable share, purchases not made through the market or by tender shall be limited to a maximum price and, if purchases are by tender, tenders shall be available to all members alike.

(f) Power of any subsidiary of the Company to own shares in the Company

There are no provisions in the Articles relating to the ownership of shares in the Company by a subsidiary.

(g) Calls on shares and forfeiture of shares

The Board may, from time to time, make such calls as it thinks fit upon the members in respect of any monies unpaid on the shares held by them respectively (whether on account of the nominal value of the shares or by way of premium) and not by the conditions of allotment of such shares made payable at fixed times. A call may be made payable either in one sum or by instalments. If the sum payable in respect of any call or instalment is not paid on or before the day appointed for payment thereof, the person or persons from whom the sum is due shall pay interest on the same at such rate not exceeding 20 per cent per annum as the Board shall fix from the day appointed for payment to the time of actual payment, but the Board may waive payment of such interest wholly or in part. The Board may, if it thinks fit, receive from any member willing to advance the same, either in money or money’s worth, all or any part of the money uncalled and unpaid or instalments payable upon any shares held by him, and in respect of all or any of the monies so advanced the Company may pay interest at such rate (if any) not exceeding 20 per cent per annum as the Board may decide.

If a member fails to pay any call or instalment of a call on the day appointed for payment, the Board may, for so long as any part of the call or instalment remains unpaid, serve not less than 14 days’ notice on the member requiring payment of so much of the call or instalment as is unpaid, together with any interest which may have accrued and which may still accrue up to the date of actual payment. The notice shall name a further day (not earlier than the expiration of 14 days from the date of the notice) on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made, and shall also name the place where payment is to be made. The notice shall also state that, in the event of non-payment at or before the appointed time, the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

If the requirements of any such notice are not complied with, any share in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Board to that effect. Such forfeiture will include all dividends and bonuses declared in respect of the forfeited share and not actually paid before the forfeiture.

A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a member in respect of the forfeited shares but shall, nevertheless, remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which, as at the date of forfeiture, were payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares together with (if the Board shall in its discretion so require) interest thereon from the date of forfeiture until payment at such rate not exceeding 20 per cent per annum as the Board may prescribe.

2.2 Directors

(a) Appointment, retirement and removal

At any time or from time to time, the Board shall have the power to appoint any person as a Director either to fill a casual vacancy on the Board or as an additional Director to the existing Board subject to any maximum number of Directors, if any, as may be determined by the members in general meeting. Any Director so appointed to fill a casual vacancy shall hold office only until the first general meeting of the Company after his appointment and be subject to re-election at such meeting. Any Director so appointed as an addition to the existing Board shall hold office only until the first annual general meeting of the Company after his appointment and be eligible for re-election at such meeting. Any Director so appointed by the Board shall not be taken into account in determining the Directors or the number of Directors who are to retire by rotation at an annual general meeting.

At each annual general meeting, one-third of the Directors for the time being shall retire from office by rotation. However, if the number of Directors is not a multiple of three, then the number nearest to but not less than one-third shall be the number of retiring Directors. Every Director (including those appointed for a specific term) shall be subject to retirement by rotation at least once every three years. The Directors to retire in each year shall be those who have been in office longest since their last re-election or appointment but, as between persons who became or were last re-elected Directors on the same day, those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by lot.

No person, other than a retiring Director, shall, unless recommended by the Board for election, be eligible for election to the office of Director at any general meeting, unless notice in writing of the intention to propose that person for election as a Director and notice in writing by that person of his willingness to be elected has been lodged at the head office or at the registration office of the Company. The period for lodgment of such notices shall commence no earlier than the day after despatch of the notice of the relevant meeting and end no later than seven days before the date of such meeting and the minimum length of the period during which such notices may be lodged must be at least seven days.

A Director is not required to hold any shares in the Company by way of qualification nor is there any specified upper or lower age limit for Directors either for accession to or retirement from the Board.

A Director may be removed by an ordinary resolution of the Company before the expiration of his term of office (but without prejudice to any claim which such Director may have for damages for any breach of any contract between him and the Company) and the Company may by ordinary resolution appoint another in his

– III-5 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

place. Any Director so appointed shall be subject to the retirement by rotation provisions. The number of Directors shall not be less than two.

The office of a Director shall be vacated if he:

(i) resigns;

(ii) dies;

(iii) is declared to be of unsound mind and the Board resolves that his office be vacated;

(iv) becomes bankrupt or has a receiving order made against him or suspends payment or compounds with his creditors generally;

(v) he is prohibited from being or ceases to be a director by operation of law;

(vi) without special leave, is absent from meetings of the Board for six consecutive months, and the Board resolves that his office is vacated;

(vii) has been required by the stock exchange of the Relevant Territory (as defined in the Articles) to cease to be a Director; or

(viii) is removed from office by the requisite majority of the Directors or otherwise pursuant to the Articles.

From time to time the Board may appoint one or more of its body to be managing director, joint managing director or deputy managing director or to hold any other employment or executive office with the Company for such period and upon such terms as the Board may determine, and the Board may revoke or terminate any of such appointments. The Board may also delegate any of its powers to committees consisting of such Director(s) or other person(s) as the Board thinks fit, and from time to time it may also revoke such delegation or revoke the appointment of and discharge any such committees either wholly or in part, and either as to persons or purposes, but every committee so formed shall, in the exercise of the powers so delegated, conform to any regulations that may from time to time be imposed upon it by the Board.

(b) Power to allot and issue shares and warrants

Subject to the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act, the Memorandum and Articles and without prejudice to any special rights conferred on the holders of any shares or class of shares, any share may be issued with or have attached to it such rights, or such restrictions, whether with regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise, as the Company may by ordinary resolution determine (or, in the absence of any such determination or so far as the same may not make specific

– III-6 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

provision, as the Board may determine). Any share may be issued on terms that, upon the happening of a specified event or upon a given date and either at the option of the Company or the holder of the share, it is liable to be redeemed.

The Board may issue warrants to subscribe for any class of shares or other securities of the Company on such terms as it may from time to time determine.

Where warrants are issued to bearer, no certificate in respect of such warrants shall be issued to replace one that has been lost unless the Board is satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that the original certificate has been destroyed and the Company has received an indemnity in such form as the Board thinks fit with regard to the issue of any such replacement certificate.

Subject to the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act, the Articles and, where applicable, the rules of any stock exchange of the Relevant Territory and without prejudice to any special rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any shares or any class of shares, all unissued shares in the Company shall be at the disposal of the Board, which may offer, allot, grant options over or otherwise dispose of them to such persons, at such times, for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as it in its absolute discretion thinks fit, provided that no shares shall be issued at a discount.

Neither the Company nor the Board shall be obliged, when making or granting any allotment of, offer of, option over or disposal of shares, to make, or make available, any such allotment, offer, option or shares to members or others whose registered addresses are in any particular territory or territories where, in the absence of a registration statement or other special formalities, this is or may, in the opinion of the Board, be unlawful or impracticable. However, no member affected as a result of the foregoing shall be, or be deemed to be, a separate class of members for any purpose whatsoever.

(c) Power to dispose of the assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries

While there are no specific provisions in the Articles relating to the disposal of the assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, the Board may exercise all powers and do all acts and things which may be exercised or done or approved by the Company and which are not required by the Articles or the Cayman Companies Act to be exercised or done by the Company in general meeting, but if such power or act is regulated by the Company in general meeting, such regulation shall not invalidate any prior act of the Board which would have been valid if such regulation had not been made.

(d) Borrowing powers

The Board may exercise all the powers of the Company to raise or borrow money, to mortgage or charge all or any part of the undertaking, property and uncalled capital of the Company and, subject to the Cayman Companies Act, to

– III-7 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

issue debentures, debenture stock, bonds and other securities of the Company, whether outright or as collateral security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or of any third party.

(e) Remuneration

The Directors shall be entitled to receive, as ordinary remuneration for their services, such sums as shall from time to time be determined by the Board or the Company in general meeting, as the case may be, such sum (unless otherwise directed by the resolution by which it is determined) to be divided among the Directors in such proportions and in such manner as they may agree or, failing agreement, either equally or, in the case of any Director holding office for only a portion of the period in respect of which the remuneration is payable, pro rata. The Directors shall also be entitled to be repaid all expenses reasonably incurred by them in attending any Board meetings, committee meetings or general meetings or otherwise in connection with the discharge of their duties as Directors. Such remuneration shall be in addition to any other remuneration to which a Director who holds any salaried employment or office in the Company may be entitled by reason of such employment or office.

Any Director who, at the request of the Company, performs services which in the opinion of the Board go beyond the ordinary duties of a Director may be paid such special or extra remuneration as the Board may determine, in addition to or in substitution for any ordinary remuneration as a Director. An executive Director appointed to be a managing director, joint managing director, deputy managing director or other executive officer shall receive such remuneration and such other benefits and allowances as the Board may from time to time decide. Such remuneration shall be in addition to his ordinary remuneration as a Director.

The Board may establish, either on its own or jointly in concurrence or agreement with subsidiaries of the Company or companies with which the Company is associated in business, or may make contributions out of the Company’s monies to, any schemes or funds for providing pensions, sickness or compassionate allowances, life assurance or other benefits for employees (which expression as used in this and the following paragraph shall include any Director or former Director who may hold or have held any executive office or any office of profit with the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and former employees of the Company and their dependents or any class or classes of such persons.

The Board may also pay, enter into agreements to pay or make grants of revocable or irrevocable, whether or not subject to any terms or conditions, pensions or other benefits to employees and former employees and their dependents, or to any of such persons, including pensions or benefits additional to those, if any, to which such employees or former employees or their dependents are or may become entitled under any such scheme or fund as mentioned above. Such pension or benefit may, if deemed desirable by the Board, be granted to an employee either before and in anticipation of, or upon or at any time after, his actual retirement.

– III-8 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

(f) Compensation or payments for loss of office

Payments to any present Director or past Director of any sum by way of compensation for loss of office or as consideration for or in connection with his retirement from office (not being a payment to which the Director is contractually or statutorily entitled) must be approved by the Company in general meeting.

(g) Loans and provision of security for loans to Directors

The Company shall not directly or indirectly make a loan to a Director or a director of any holding company of the Company or any of their respective close associates, enter into any guarantee or provide any security in connection with a loan made by any person to a Director or a director of any holding company of the Company or any of their respective close associates, or, if any one or more Directors hold(s) (jointly or severally or directly or indirectly) a controlling interest in another company, make a loan to that other company or enter into any guarantee or provide any security in connection with a loan made by any person to that other company.

(h) Disclosure of interest in contracts with the Company or any of its subsidiaries

With the exception of the office of auditor of the Company, a Director may hold any other office or place of profit with the Company in conjunction with his office of Director for such period and upon such terms as the Board may determine, and may be paid such extra remuneration for that other office or place of profit, in whatever form, in addition to any remuneration provided for by or pursuant to any other Articles. A Director may be or become a director, officer or member of any other company in which the Company may be interested, and shall not be liable to account to the Company or the members for any remuneration or other benefits received by him as a director, officer or member of such other company. The Board may also cause the voting power conferred by the shares in any other company held or owned by the Company to be exercised in such manner in all respects as it thinks fit, including the exercise in favour of any resolution appointing the Directors or any of them to be directors or officers of such other company.

No Director or intended Director shall be disqualified by his office from contracting with the Company, nor shall any such contract or any other contract or arrangement in which any Director is in any way interested be liable to be avoided, nor shall any Director so contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company for any profit realised by any such contract or arrangement by reason only of such Director holding that office or the fiduciary relationship established by it. A Director who is, in any way, materially interested in a contract or arrangement or proposed contract or arrangement with the Company shall declare the nature of his interest at the earliest meeting of the Board at which he may practically do so.

– III-9 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

There is no power to freeze or otherwise impair any of the rights attaching to any share by reason that the person or persons who are interested directly or indirectly in that share have failed to disclose their interests to the Company.

A Director shall not vote or be counted in the quorum on any resolution of the Board in respect of any contract or arrangement or proposal in which he or any of his close associate(s) has/have a material interest, and if he shall do so his vote shall not be counted nor shall he be counted in the quorum for that resolution, but this prohibition shall not apply to any of the following matters:

(i) the giving of any security or indemnity to the Director or his close associate(s) in respect of money lent or obligations incurred or undertaken by him or any of them at the request of or for the benefit of the Company or any of its subsidiaries;

(ii) the giving of any security or indemnity to a third party in respect of a debt or obligation of the Company or any of its subsidiaries for which the Director or his close associate(s) has/have himself/themselves assumed responsibility in whole or in part whether alone or jointly under a guarantee or indemnity or by the giving of security;

(iii) any proposal concerning an offer of shares, debentures or other securities of or by the Company or any other company which the Company may promote or be interested in for subscription or purchase, where the Director or his close associate(s) is/are or is/are to be interested as a participant in the underwriting or sub- underwriting of the offer;

(iv) any proposal or arrangement concerning the benefit of employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, including the adoption, modification or operation of either: (i) any employees’ share scheme or any share incentive or share option scheme under which the Director or his close associate(s) may benefit; or (ii) any of a pension fund or retirement, death or disability benefits scheme which relates to Directors, their close associates and employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and does not provide in respect of any Director or his close associate(s) any privilege or advantage not generally accorded to the class of persons to which such scheme or fund relates; and

(v) any contract or arrangement in which the Director or his close associate(s) is/are interested in the same manner as other holders of shares, debentures or other securities of the Company by virtue only of his/their interest in those shares, debentures or other securities.

2.3 Proceedings of the Board

The Board may meet anywhere in the world for the despatch of business and may adjourn and otherwise regulate its meetings as it thinks fit. Questions arising at any meeting shall be determined by a majority of votes. In the case of an equality of votes, the chairman of the meeting shall have a second or casting vote.

2.4 Alterations to the constitutional documents and the Company’s name

To the extent that the same is permissible under the Cayman Islands laws and subject to the Articles, the Memorandum and Articles of the Company may only be altered or amended, and the name of the Company may only be changed, with the sanction of a special resolution of the Company.

2.5 Meetings of members

(a) Special and ordinary resolutions

A special resolution of the Company must be passed by a majority of not less than three-fourths of the votes cast by such members as, being entitled so to do, vote in person or by proxy or, in the case of members which are corporations, by their duly authorised representatives or by proxy at a general meeting of which notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution has been duly given.

Under the Cayman Companies Act, a copy of any special resolution must be forwarded to the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands within 15 days of being passed.

An ordinary resolution, by contrast, is a resolution passed by a simple majority of the votes of such members of the Company as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, in the case of members which are corporations, by their duly authorised representatives or by proxy at a general meeting of which notice has been duly given.

A resolution in writing signed by or on behalf of all members shall be treated as an ordinary resolution duly passed at a general meeting of the Company duly convened and held, and where relevant as a special resolution so passed.

(b) Voting rights and right to demand a poll

Subject to any special rights, restrictions or privileges as to voting for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares at any general meeting: (a) on a poll every member present in person or by proxy or, in the case of a member being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative shall have one vote for every share which is fully paid or credited as fully paid registered in his name in the register of members of the Company, provided that no amount paid up or credited as paid up on a share in advance of calls or instalments is treated for this purpose as paid up on the share; and (b) on a show of hands every member who is present in person (or, in the case of a member being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy shall have one vote. Where more than one proxy is appointed by a member which is a Clearing House or its nominee(s), each such proxy shall have one vote on a show of hands. On a poll, a member entitled to more than one vote need not use all his votes or cast all the votes he does use in the same way.

At any general meeting a resolution put to the vote of the meeting is to be decided by poll save that the chairman of the meeting may, pursuant to the Listing Rules, allow a resolution to be voted on by a show of hands. Where a show of hands is allowed, before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands, a poll may be demanded by (in each case by members present in person or by proxy or by a duly authorised corporate representative):

(i) at least two members;

(ii) any member or members representing not less than one-tenth of the total voting rights of all the members having the right to vote at the meeting; or

(iii) a member or members holding shares in the Company conferring a right to vote at the meeting on which an aggregate sum has been paid equal to not less than one-tenth of the total sum paid up on all the shares conferring that right.

Should a Clearing House or its nominee(s) be a member of the Company, such person or persons may be authorised as it thinks fit to act as its representative(s) at any meeting of the Company or at any meeting of any class of members of the Company provided that, if more than one person is so authorised, the authorisation shall specify the number and class of shares in respect of which each such person is so authorised. A person authorised in accordance with this provision shall be deemed to have been duly authorised without further evidence of the facts and be entitled to exercise the same rights and powers on behalf of the Clearing House or its nominee(s) as if such person were an individual member including the right to vote individually on a show of hands.

– III-12 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

Where the Company has knowledge that any member is, under the Listing Rules, required to abstain from voting on any particular resolution or restricted to voting only for or only against any particular resolution, any votes cast by or on behalf of such member in contravention of such requirement or restriction shall not be counted.

(c) Annual general meetings

The Company must hold an annual general meeting each year other than the year of the Company’s adoption of the Articles. Such meeting must be held not more than 15 months after the holding of the last preceding annual general meeting, or such longer period as may be authorised by the Stock Exchange at such time and place as may be determined by the Board.

(d) Notices of meetings and business to be conducted

An annual general meeting of the Company shall be called by at least 21 days’ (and not less than 20 clear business days’) notice in writing, and any other general meeting of the Company shall be called by at least 14 days’ (and not less than 10 clear business days’) notice in writing. The notice shall be exclusive of the day on which it is served or deemed to be served and of the day for which it is given, and must specify the time, place and agenda of the meeting and particulars of the resolution(s) to be considered at that meeting and, in the case of special business, the general nature of that business.

Except where otherwise expressly stated, any notice or document (including a share certificate) to be given or issued under the Articles shall be in writing, and may be served by the Company on any member personally, by post to such member’s registered address or (in the case of a notice) by advertisement in the newspapers. Any member whose registered address is outside Hong Kong may notify the Company in writing of an address in Hong Kong which shall be deemed to be his registered address for this purpose. Subject to the Cayman Companies Act and the Listing Rules, a notice or document may also be served or delivered by the Company to any member by electronic means.

Although a meeting of the Company may be called by shorter notice than as specified above, such meeting may be deemed to have been duly called if it is so agreed:

(i) in the case of an annual general meeting, by all members of the Company entitled to attend and vote thereat; and

(ii) in the case of any other meeting, by a majority in number of the members having a right to attend and vote at the meeting holding not less than 95 per cent of the total voting rights in the Company.

All business transacted at an extraordinary general meeting shall be deemed special business. All business shall also be deemed special business where it is

– III-13 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

transacted at an annual general meeting, with the exception of certain routine matters which shall be deemed ordinary business.

(e) Quorum for meetings and separate class meetings

No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present when the meeting proceeds to business, and continues to be present until the conclusion of the meeting.

The quorum for a general meeting shall be two members present in person (or in the case of a member being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy and entitled to vote. In respect of a separate class meeting (other than an adjourned meeting) convened to sanction the modification of class rights, the necessary quorum shall be two persons holding or representing by proxy not less than one-third in nominal value of the issued shares of that class.

(f) Proxies

Any member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at a meeting of the Company is entitled to appoint another person as his proxy to attend and vote instead of him. A member who is the holder of two or more shares may appoint more than one proxy to represent him and vote on his behalf at a general meeting of the Company or at a class meeting. A proxy need not be a member of the Company and shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of a member who is an individual and for whom he acts as proxy as such member could exercise. In addition, a proxy shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of a member which is a corporation and for which he acts as proxy as such member could exercise if it were an individual member. On a poll or on a show of hands, votes may be given either personally (or, in the case of a member being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy.

The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointor or of his attorney duly authorised in writing, or if the appointor is a corporation, either under seal or under the hand of a duly authorised officer or attorney. Every instrument of proxy, whether for a specified meeting or otherwise, shall be in such form as the Board may from time to time approve, provided that it shall not preclude the use of the two-way form. Any form issued to a member for appointing a proxy to attend and vote at an extraordinary general meeting or at an annual general meeting at which any business is to be transacted shall be such as to enable the member, according to his intentions, to instruct the proxy to vote in favour of or against (or, in default of instructions, to exercise his discretion in respect of) each resolution dealing with any such business.

(g) Members’ requisition for meetings

Extraordinary general meetings shall be convened on the requisition of one or more members holding, as at the date of deposit of the requisition, not less than one-tenth of the paid up capital of the Company having the right of voting at general meetings. Such requisition shall be made in writing to the Board or the secretary of the Company for the purpose of requiring an extraordinary general meeting to be called by the Board for the transaction of any business specified in such requisition. Such meeting shall be held within two months after the deposit of such requisition. If within 21 days of such deposit, the Board fails to proceed to convene such meeting, the requisitionist(s) himself (themselves) may do so in the same manner, and all reasonable expenses incurred by the requisitionist(s) as a result of the failure of the Board shall be reimbursed to the requisitionist(s) by the Company.

2.6 Accounts and audit

The Board shall cause proper books of account to be kept of the sums of money received and expended by the Company, and of the assets and liabilities of the Company and of all other matters required by the Cayman Companies Act (which include all sales and purchases of goods by the Company) necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s affairs and to show and explain its transactions.

The books of accounts of the Company shall be kept at the head office of the Company or at such other place or places as the Board decides and shall always be open to inspection by any Director. No member (other than a Director) shall have any right to inspect any account, book or document of the Company except as conferred by the Cayman Companies Act or ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or authorised by the Board or the Company in general meeting.

The Board shall from time to time cause to be prepared and laid before the Company at its annual general meeting balance sheets and profit and loss accounts (including every document required by law to be annexed thereto), together with a copy of the Directors’ report and a copy of the auditors’ report, not less than 21 days before the date of the annual general meeting. Copies of these documents shall be sent to every person entitled to receive notices of general meetings of the Company under the provisions of the Articles together with the notice of annual general meeting, not less than 21 days before the date of the meeting.

Subject to the rules of the stock exchange of the Relevant Territory, the Company may send summarised financial statements to shareholders who have, in accordance with the rules of the stock exchange of the Relevant Territory, consented and elected to receive summarised financial statements instead of the full financial statements. The summarised financial statements must be accompanied by any other documents as may be required under the rules of the stock exchange of the Relevant Territory, and must be sent to those

– III-15 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

shareholders that have consented and elected to receive the summarised financial statements not less than 21 days before the general meeting.

The Company shall appoint auditor(s) to hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting on such terms and with such duties as may be agreed with the Board. The auditors’ remuneration shall be fixed by the Company in general meeting or by the Board if authority is so delegated by the members. The members may, at any general meeting convened and held in accordance with the Articles, remove the auditors by special resolution at any time before the expiration of the term of office and shall, by ordinary resolution, at that meeting appoint new auditors in its place for the remainder of the term.

The auditors shall audit the financial statements of the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of Hong Kong, the International Accounting Standards or such other standards as may be permitted by the Stock Exchange.

2.7 Dividends and other methods of distribution

The Company in general meeting may declare dividends in any currency to be paid to the members but no dividend shall be declared in excess of the amount recommended by the Board.

Except in so far as the rights attaching to, or the terms of issue of, any share may otherwise provide:

(a) all dividends shall be declared and paid according to the amounts paid up on the shares in respect of which the dividend is paid, although no amount paid up on a share in advance of calls shall for this purpose be treated as paid up on the share;

(b) all dividends shall be apportioned and paid pro rata in accordance with the amount paid up on the shares during any portion(s) of the period in respect of which the dividend is paid; and

(c) the Board may deduct from any dividend or other monies payable to any member all sums of money (if any) presently payable by him to the Company on account of calls, instalments or otherwise.

Where the Board or the Company in general meeting has resolved that a dividend should be paid or declared, the Board may resolve:

(i) that such dividend be satisfied wholly or in part in the form of an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up, provided that the members entitled to such dividend will be entitled to elect to receive such dividend (or part thereof) in cash in lieu of such allotment; or

(ii) that the members entitled to such dividend will be entitled to elect to receive an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up in lieu of the whole or such part of the dividend as the Board may think fit.

– III-16 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

Upon the recommendation of the Board, the Company may by ordinary resolution in respect of any one particular dividend of the Company determine that it may be satisfied wholly in the form of an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up without offering any right to members to elect to receive such dividend in cash in lieu of such allotment.

Any dividend, bonus or other sum payable in cash to the holder of shares may be paid by cheque or warrant sent through the post. Every such cheque or warrant shall be made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent and shall be sent at the holder’s or joint holders’ risk and payment of the cheque or warrant by the bank on which it is drawn shall constitute a good discharge to the Company. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any dividends or other monies payable or property distributable in respect of the shares held by such joint holders.

Whenever the Board or the Company in general meeting has resolved that a dividend be paid or declared, the Board may further resolve that such dividend be satisfied wholly or in part by the distribution of specific assets of any kind.

The Board may, if it thinks fit, receive from any member willing to advance the same, and either in money or money’s worth, all or any part of the money uncalled and unpaid or instalments payable upon any shares held by him, and in respect of all or any of the monies so advanced may pay interest at such rate (if any) not exceeding 20 per cent per annum, as the Board may decide, but a payment in advance of a call shall not entitle the member to receive any dividend or to exercise any other rights or privileges as a member in respect of the share or the due portion of the shares upon which payment has been advanced by such member before it is called up.

All dividends, bonuses or other distributions unclaimed for one year after having been declared may be invested or otherwise used by the Board for the benefit of the Company until claimed and the Company shall not be constituted a trustee in respect thereof. All dividends, bonuses or other distributions unclaimed for six years after having been declared may be forfeited by the Board and, upon such forfeiture, shall revert to the Company.

No dividend or other monies payable by the Company on or in respect of any share shall bear interest against the Company.

The Company may exercise the power to cease sending cheques for dividend entitlements or dividend warrants by post if such cheques or warrants remain uncashed on two consecutive occasions or after the first occasion on which such a cheque or warrant is returned undelivered.

2.8 Inspection of corporate records

For so long as any part of the share capital of the Company is listed on the Stock Exchange, any member may inspect any register of members of the Company maintained in Hong Kong (except when the register of members is closed) without charge and require the provision to him of copies or extracts of such register in all respects as if the Company were incorporated under and were subject to the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

2.9 Rights of minorities in relation to fraud or oppression

There are no provisions in the Articles concerning the rights of minority members in relation to fraud or oppression. However, certain remedies may be available to members of the Company under the Cayman Islands laws, as summarised in paragraph 3.6 of this Appendix.

2.10 Procedures on liquidation

A resolution that the Company be wound up by the court or be wound up voluntarily shall be a special resolution.

Subject to any special rights, privileges or restrictions as to the distribution of available surplus assets on liquidation for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares:

(a) if the Company is wound up and the assets available for distribution among the members of the Company are more than sufficient to repay the whole of the capital paid up at the commencement of the winding up, then the excess shall be distributed pari passu among such members in proportion to the amount paid up on the shares held by them respectively; and

(b) if the Company is wound up and the assets available for distribution among the members as such are insufficient to repay the whole of the paid-up capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the members in proportion to the capital paid up on the shares held by them, respectively.

If the Company is wound up (whether the liquidation is voluntary or compelled by the court), the liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution and any other sanction required by the Cayman Companies Act, divide among the members in specie or kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company, whether the assets consist of property of one kind or different kinds, and the liquidator may, for such purpose, set such value as he deems fair upon any one or more class or classes of property to be so divided and may determine how such division shall be carried out as between the members or different classes of members and the members within each class. The liquidator may, with the like sanction, vest any part of the assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of

– III-18 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

members as the liquidator thinks fit, provided that no member shall be compelled to accept any shares or other property upon which there is a liability.

2.11 Subscription rights reserve

Provided that it is not prohibited by and is otherwise in compliance with the Cayman Companies Act, if warrants to subscribe for shares have been issued by the Company and the Company does any act or engages in any transaction which would result in the subscription price of such warrants being reduced below the par value of the shares to be issued on the exercise of such warrants, a subscription rights reserve shall be established and applied in paying up the difference between the subscription price and the par value of such shares.

3. COMPANY LAWS OF THE CAYMAN ISLANDS

The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company on 1 February 2021 subject to the Cayman Companies Act. Certain provisions of the company laws of the Cayman Islands are set out below but this section does not purport to contain all applicable qualifications and exceptions or to be a complete review of all matters of the company laws of the Cayman Islands, which may differ from equivalent provisions in jurisdictions with which interested parties may be more familiar.

3.1 Company operations

An exempted company such as the Company must conduct its operations mainly outside the Cayman Islands. An exempted company is also required to file an annual return each year with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands and pay a fee which is based on the amount of its authorised share capital.

3.2 Share capital

Under the Cayman Companies Act, a Cayman Islands company may issue ordinary, preference or redeemable shares or any combination thereof. Where a company issues shares at a premium, whether for cash or otherwise, a sum equal to the aggregate amount or value of the premiums on those shares shall be transferred to an account, to be called the share premium account. At the option of a company, these provisions may not apply to premiums on shares of that company allotted pursuant to any arrangements in consideration of the acquisition or cancellation of shares in any other company and issued at a premium. The share premium account may be applied by the company subject to the provisions, if any, of its memorandum and articles of association, in such manner as the company may from time to time determine including, but without limitation, the following:

(a) paying distributions or dividends to members;

(b) paying up unissued shares of the company to be issued to members as fully paid bonus shares;

– III-19 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

(c) any manner provided in section 37 of the Cayman Companies Act;

(d) writing-off the preliminary expenses of the company; and

(e) writing-off the expenses of, or the commission paid or discount allowed on, any issue of shares or debentures of the company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no distribution or dividend may be paid to members out of the share premium account unless, immediately following the date on which the distribution or dividend is proposed to be paid, the company will be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business.

Subject to confirmation by the court, a company limited by shares or a company limited by guarantee and having a share capital may, if authorised to do so by its articles of association, by special resolution reduce its share capital in any way.

3.3 Financial assistance to purchase shares of a company or its holding company

There are no statutory prohibitions in the Cayman Islands on the granting of financial assistance by a company to another person for the purchase of, or subscription for, its own, its holding company’s or a subsidiary’s shares. Therefore, a company may provide financial assistance provided the directors of the company, when proposing to grant such financial assistance, discharge their duties of care and act in good faith, for a proper purpose and in the interests of the company. Such assistance should be on an arm’s-length basis.

3.4 Purchase of shares and warrants by a company and its subsidiaries

A company limited by shares or a company limited by guarantee and having a share capital may, if so authorised by its articles of association, issue shares which are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the company or a member and, for the avoidance of doubt, it shall be lawful for the rights attaching to any shares to be varied, subject to the provisions of the company’s articles of association, so as to provide that such shares are to be or are liable to be so redeemed. In addition, such a company may, if authorised to do so by its articles of association, purchase its own shares, including any redeemable shares; an ordinary resolution of the company approving the manner and terms of the purchase will be required if the articles of association do not authorise the manner and terms of such purchase. A company may not redeem or purchase its shares unless they are fully paid. Furthermore, a company may not redeem or purchase any of its shares if, as a result of the redemption or purchase, there would no longer be any issued shares of the company other than shares held as treasury shares. In addition, a payment out of capital by a company for the redemption or purchase of its own shares is not lawful unless, immediately following the date on which the payment is proposed to be made, the company shall be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business.

– III-20 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

Shares that have been purchased or redeemed by a company or surrendered to the company shall not be treated as cancelled but shall be classified as treasury shares if held in compliance with the requirements of Section 37A(1) of the Cayman Companies Act. Any such shares shall continue to be classified as treasury shares until such shares are either cancelled or transferred pursuant to the Cayman Companies Act.

A Cayman Islands company may be able to purchase its own warrants subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the relevant warrant instrument or certificate. Thus there is no requirement under the Cayman Islands laws that a company’s memorandum or articles of association contain a specific provision enabling such purchases. The directors of a company may under the general power contained in its memorandum of association be able to buy, sell and deal in personal property of all kinds.

A subsidiary may hold shares in its holding company and, in certain circumstances, may acquire such shares.

3.5 Dividends and distributions

Subject to a solvency test, as prescribed in the Cayman Companies Act, and the provisions, if any, of the company’s memorandum and articles of association, a company may pay dividends and distributions out of its share premium account. In addition, based upon English case law which is likely to be persuasive in the Cayman Islands, dividends may be paid out of profits.

For so long as a company holds treasury shares, no dividend may be declared or paid, and no other distribution (whether in cash or otherwise) of the company’s assets (including any distribution of assets to members on a winding up) may be made, in respect of a treasury share.

3.6 Protection of minorities and shareholders’ suits

It can be expected that the Cayman Islands courts will ordinarily follow English case law precedents (particularly the rule in the case of Foss vs. Harbottle and the exceptions to that rule) which permit a minority member to commence a representative action against or derivative actions in the name of the company to challenge acts which are ultra vires, illegal, fraudulent (and performed by those in control of the Company) against the minority, or represent an irregularity in the passing of a resolution which requires a qualified (or special) majority which has not been obtained.

Where a company (not being a bank) is one which has a share capital divided into shares, the court may, on the application of members holding not less than one-fifth of the shares of the company in issue, appoint an inspector to examine the affairs of the company and, at the direction of the court, to report on such affairs. In addition, any member of a company may petition the court, which may make a winding up order if the court is of the opinion that it is just and equitable that the company should be wound up.

– III-21 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

In general, claims against a company by its members must be based on the general laws of contract or tort applicable in the Cayman Islands or be based on potential violation of their individual rights as members as established by a company’s memorandum and articles of association.

3.7 Disposal of assets

There are no specific restrictions on the power of directors to dispose of assets of a company, however, the directors are expected to exercise certain duties of care, diligence and skill to the standard that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances, in addition to fiduciary duties to act in good faith, for proper purpose and in the best interests of the company under English common law (which the Cayman Islands courts will ordinarily follow).

3.8 Accounting and auditing requirements

A company must cause proper records of accounts to be kept with respect to: (i) all sums of money received and expended by it; (ii) all sales and purchases of goods by it; and (iii) its assets and liabilities.

Proper books of account shall not be deemed to be kept if there are not kept such books as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the company’s affairs and to explain its transactions.

If a company keeps its books of account at any place other than at its registered office or any other place within the Cayman Islands, it shall, upon service of an order or notice by the Tax Information Authority pursuant to the Tax Information Authority Act (2021 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, make available, in electronic form or any other medium, at its registered office copies of its books of account, or any part or parts thereof, as are specified in such order or notice.

3.9 Exchange control

There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in effect in the Cayman Islands.

3.10 Taxation

Pursuant to section 6 of the Tax Concessions Act (2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, the Company has obtained an undertaking from the Governor-in-Cabinet that:

(a) no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits or income or gains or appreciations shall apply to the Company or its operations; and

(b) no tax be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations or which is in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall be payable by the Company:

– III-22 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

(i) on or in respect of the shares, debentures or other obligations of the Company; or

(ii) by way of withholding in whole or in part of any relevant payment as defined in section 6(3) of the Tax Concessions Act (2018 Revision).

The undertaking for the Company is for a period of 20 years from [●].

The Cayman Islands currently levy no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciations and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to the Company levied by the Government of the Cayman Islands save for certain stamp duties which may be applicable, from time to time, on certain instruments.

3.11 Stamp duty on transfers

No stamp duty is payable in the Cayman Islands on transfers of shares of Cayman Islands companies save for those which hold interests in land in the Cayman Islands.

3.12 Loans to directors

There is no express provision prohibiting the making of loans by a company to any of its directors. However, the company’s articles of association may provide for the prohibition of such loans under specific circumstances.

3.13 Inspection of corporate records

The members of a company have no general right to inspect or obtain copies of the register of members or corporate records of the company. They will, however, have such rights as may be set out in the company’s articles of association.

3.14 Register of members

A Cayman Islands exempted company may maintain its principal register of members and any branch registers in any country or territory, whether within or outside the Cayman Islands, as the company may determine from time to time. There is no requirement for an exempted company to make any returns of members to the Registrar of

– III-23 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

Companies in the Cayman Islands. The names and addresses of the members are, accordingly, not a matter of public record and are not available for public inspection. However, an exempted company shall make available at its registered office, in electronic form or any other medium, such register of members, including any branch register of member, as may be required of it upon service of an order or notice by the Tax Information Authority pursuant to the Tax Information Authority Act (2021 Revision) of the Cayman Islands.

3.15 Register of directors and officers

Pursuant to the Cayman Companies Act, the Company is required to maintain at its registered office a register of directors, alternate directors and officers. The Registrar of Companies shall make available the list of the names of the current directors of the Company (and, where applicable, the current alternate directors of the Company) for inspection by any person upon payment of a fee by such person. A copy of the register of directors and officers must be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands, and any change must be notified to the Registrar of Companies within 30 days of any change in such directors or officers, including a change of the name of such directors or officers.

3.16 Winding up

A Cayman Islands company may be wound up by: (i) an order of the court; (ii) voluntarily by its members; or (iii) under the supervision of the court.

The court has authority to order winding up in a number of specified circumstances including where, in the opinion of the court, it is just and equitable that such company be so wound up.

A voluntary winding up of a company (other than a limited duration company, for which specific rules apply) occurs where the company resolves by special resolution that it be wound up voluntarily or where the company in general meeting resolves that it be wound up voluntarily because it is unable to pay its debt as they fall due. In the case of a voluntary winding up, the company is obliged to cease to carry on its business from the commencement of its winding up except so far as it may be beneficial for its winding up. Upon appointment of a voluntary liquidator, all the powers of the directors cease, except so far as the company in general meeting or the liquidator sanctions their continuance.

In the case of a members’ voluntary winding up of a company, one or more liquidators are appointed for the purpose of winding up the affairs of the company and distributing its assets.

As soon as the affairs of a company are fully wound up, the liquidator must make a report and an account of the winding up, showing how the winding up has been conducted and the property of the company disposed of, and call a general meeting of the company for the purposes of laying before it the account and giving an explanation of that account.

– III-24 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

When a resolution has been passed by a company to wind up voluntarily, the liquidator or any contributory or creditor may apply to the court for an order for the continuation of the winding up under the supervision of the court, on the grounds that: (i) the company is or is likely to become insolvent; or (ii) the supervision of the court will facilitate a more effective, economic or expeditious liquidation of the company in the interests of the contributories and creditors. A supervision order takes effect for all purposes as if it was an order that the company be wound up by the court except that a commenced voluntary winding up and the prior actions of the voluntary liquidator shall be valid and binding upon the company and its official liquidator.

For the purpose of conducting the proceedings in winding up a company and assisting the court, one or more persons may be appointed to be called an official liquidator(s). The court may appoint to such office such person or persons, either provisionally or otherwise, as it thinks fit, and if more than one person is appointed to such office, the court shall declare whether any act required or authorised to be done by the official liquidator is to be done by all or any one or more of such persons. The court may also determine whether any and what security is to be given by an official liquidator on his appointment; if no official liquidator is appointed, or during any vacancy in such office, all the property of the company shall be in the custody of the court.

3.17 Reconstructions

Reconstructions and amalgamations may be approved by a majority in number representing 75 per cent in value of the members or creditors, depending on the circumstances, as are present at a meeting called for such purpose and thereafter sanctioned by the courts. Whilst a dissenting member has the right to express to the court his view that the transaction for which approval is being sought would not provide the members with a fair value for their shares, the courts are unlikely to disapprove the transaction on that ground alone in the absence of evidence of fraud or bad faith on behalf of management, and if the transaction were approved and consummated, the dissenting member would have no rights comparable to the appraisal rights (that is, the right to receive payment in cash for the judicially determined value of their shares) ordinarily available, for example, to dissenting members of a United States corporation.

3.18 Take-overs

Where an offer is made by a company for the shares of another company and, within four months of the offer, the holders of not less than 90 per cent of the shares which are the subject of the offer accept, the offeror may, at any time within two months after the expiration of that four-month period, by notice require the dissenting members to transfer their shares on the terms of the offer. A dissenting member may apply to the Cayman Islands courts within one month of the notice objecting to the transfer. The burden is on the dissenting member to show that the court should exercise its discretion, which it will be unlikely to do unless there is evidence of fraud or bad faith or collusion as between the offeror and the holders of the shares who have accepted the offer as a means of unfairly forcing out minority members.

– III-25 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX III SUMMARY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COMPANY AND CAYMAN COMPANIES LAW

3.19 Indemnification

The Cayman Islands laws do not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, save to the extent any such provision may be held by the court to be contrary to public policy, for example, where a provision purports to provide indemnification against the consequences of committing a crime.

3.20 Economic Substance

The Cayman Islands enacted the International Tax Co-operation (Economic Substance) Act (2021 Revision) together with the Guidance Notes published by the Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority from time to time. The Company is required to comply with the economic substance requirements from 1 July 2019 and make an annual report in the Cayman Islands as to whether or not it is carrying on any relevant activities and if it is, it must satisfy an economic substance test.

4. GENERAL

Harney Westwood & Riegels, the Company’s legal adviser on Cayman Islands law, have sent to the Company a letter of advice summarising certain aspects of the Cayman Companies Act. This letter, together with a copy of the Cayman Companies Act, is available for inspection as referred to in the paragraph headed “Documents Available for Inspection” in Appendix V to this document. Any person wishing to have a detailed summary of the Cayman Companies Act or advice on the differences between it and the laws of any jurisdiction with which he is more familiar is recommended to seek independent legal advice.

A. FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT OUR GROUP

1. Incorporation of our Company

Our Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands under the Cayman Islands Companies Act as an exempted company with limited liability on 1 February 2021. Our Company has established its principal place of business in Room 1901, 19/F, Lee Garden One, 33 Hysan Avenue, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, and was registered with the Registrar of Companies in Hong Kong as a non-Hong Kong company under Part 16 of the Companies Ordinance on [●] 2021. Ms. Chan Lok Yee has been appointed as the authorised representative of our Company for the acceptance of service of process and notices on behalf of our Company in Hong Kong.

As our Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands, we are subject to the Cayman Islands Companies Act, the Memorandum and the Articles. A summary of certain provisions of the Memorandum and Articles and relevant aspects of the Cayman Islands Companies Act is set out in the section headed “Summary of the Constitution of the Company and Cayman Islands Companies Law” in Appendix III to this document.

2. Changes in the share capital of our Company

As at the date of incorporation of our Company, the authorised share capital of our Company was HK$380,000 divided into 38,000,000 Shares of HK$0.01 par value each. Upon its incorporation, one fully-paid Share was allotted and issued to the initial subscriber, an Independent Third Party. On 4 February 2021, the one Share was transferred at par to WC-Holding, a BVI company indirectly owned as to 55% by Mr. Wong and 45% by Ms. Chan through WC-BVI, following which 59 Shares were allotted and issued to WC-Holding. On the same date, 16 Shares, 16 Shares, four Shares and four Shares were allotted and issued to RH International Investment Limited, RH Rising Investment Limited, Wong-Holding and Chan-Holding, respectively. RH International Investment Limited is indirectly wholly-owned by Ms. Wong Tan Ching through Ronghui Wise Investment Limited. RH Rising Investment Limited is indirectly wholly-owned by Mr. Wong Wai Lam through Ronghui Rising Limited. Wong-Holding is indirectly wholly-owned by Mr. Wong through Wong-BVI. Chan-Holding is indirectly wholly-owned by Ms. Chan through Chan-BVI. Upon completion of such allotment and issuance, our Company became owned as to 60% by WC-Holding, 16% by each of RH International Investment Limited and RH Rising Investment Limited, and 4% by each of Wong-Holding and Chan-Holding.

On 27 May 2021, each of RH International Investment Limited and RH Rising Investment Limited surrendered 16 fully-paid Shares and 16 fully-paid Shares, respectively, for nil consideration. The surrendered Shares were immediately cancelled by our Company. As a result, our Company became owned as to approximately 88.2% by WC-Holding and 5.9% by each of Wong-Holding and Chan-Holding.

On 3 June 2021, 259 Shares and 245 Shares were allotted and issued at par to CZ-BVI and Cheng-BVI respectively. On the same date, 1,596 Shares were allotted and issued to Wong-Holding at a subscription amount of HK$12.2 million, and 6,236 Shares and 1,596 Shares were allotted and issued to WC-Holding and Chan-Holding at par, respectively. Upon completion of such allotment and issuance, our Company became owned as to

–IV-1– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX IV STATUTORY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

62.96% by WC-Holding, 16.00% by each of Wong-Holding and Chan-Holding, 2.59% by CZ-BVI and 2.45% by Cheng-BVI.

Pursuant to the written resolutions of the Shareholders passed on [●] 2021, our authorised share capital was increased from 38,000,000 to [1,000,000,000] by the creation of additional [962,000,000] Shares.

Immediately following completion of the Capitalisation Issue and the [REDACTED] and without taking into account any Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the [REDACTED] or any options that may be granted under the Share Option Scheme, the issued share capital of our Company will be HK$[REDACTED] divided into [REDACTED] Shares, all fully paid or credited as fully paid, and [REDACTED] Shares will remain unissued.

Save as disclosed above and as mentioned in the paragraph headed “—4. Written resolutions of our Shareholders passed on [●] 2021” below, there has been no alteration in the share capital of our Company since its incorporation.

Our subsidiaries are set out in the Accountant’s Report, the text of which is set out in Appendix I to this document.

Save as disclosed in the section headed “History, Reorganisation and Corporate Structure” in this document, there has been no alteration in the share capital of our subsidiaries during the two years preceding the date of this document.

4. Written resolutions of our Shareholders passed on [●] 2021

5. Reorganisation

In preparation for the [REDACTED], the companies comprising our Group underwent the Reorganisation and our Company became the holding company of our Group. For further details with regard to the Reorganisation, see the section headed “History, Reorganisation and Corporate Structure” in this document.

6. Buyback by our Company of our own securities

This section includes information required by the Stock Exchange to be included in this document concerning the buyback by our Company of our own securities.

(a) Provisions of the Listing Rules

The Listing Rules permit companies with a primary [REDACTED]onthe Stock Exchange to purchase their shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions.

(i) Shareholders’ approval

The Listing Rules provide that all proposed buybacks of shares (which must be fully paid in the case of shares) by a company with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution of its shareholders in general meeting, either by way of general mandate or by specific approval of a particular transaction.

Note: Pursuant to the written resolutions passed by our Shareholders on [●] 2021, a general unconditional mandate (the “Buyback Mandate”) was granted to our Directors authorising the buyback of shares by our Company on the Stock Exchange, or on any other stock exchange on which the securities of our Company may be [REDACTED] and which is recognised by the SFC and the Stock Exchange for this purpose, with the total number of Shares not exceeding 10% of the total number of Shares in issue and to be issued as mentioned herein, at any time until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of our Company, the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of our Company is required by an applicable law or the Articles to be held or when such mandate is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of our Shareholders in general meeting, whichever is the earliest.

–IV-4– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX IV STATUTORY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

(ii) Source of funds

Buybacks must be funded out of funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Memorandum and the Articles and the Cayman Islands Companies Act. A [REDACTED] company may not buyback its own shares on the Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Stock Exchange from time to time.

(iii) Core connected persons

The Listing Rules prohibit our Company from knowingly repurchasing the Shares on the Stock Exchange from a “core connected person”, which includes a director, chief executive or substantial shareholder of our Company or any of the subsidiaries or a close associate of any of them and a core connected person shall not knowingly sell Shares to our Company.

(b) Reasons for buybacks

Our Directors believe that it is in the best interests of our Company and our Shareholders as a whole for our Directors to have a general authority from our Shareholders to enable our Company to buy back Shares in the market. Such buybacks may, depending on the market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of our Company’s net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when our Directors believe that such buybacks will benefit our Company and our Shareholders.

(c) Funding of buyback

In buying back Shares, our Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with our Memorandum and Articles, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

As a matter of Cayman law, any purchases by our Company may be made out of profits or out of the proceeds of a new issue of shares made for the purpose of the purchase or from sums standing to the credit of our share premium account or out of capital, if so authorised by the Articles and subject to the Companies Act. Any premium payable on the purchase over the par value of the shares to be purchased must have been provided for out of profits or from sums standing to the credit of our share premium account or out of capital, if so authorised by the Articles and subject to the Companies Act.

On the basis of the current financial position of our Group as disclosed in this document and taking into account the current working capital position of our Company, our Directors consider that, if the Buyback Mandate were to be exercised in full, it might have a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or the gearing position of our Group as compared to the position disclosed in

–IV-5– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX IV STATUTORY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

this document. However, our Directors do not propose to exercise the Buyback Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital or the gearing levels of our Group which in the opinion of our Directors are from time to time appropriate for our Group.

(d) Share capital

The exercise in full of the Buyback Mandate, on the basis of [REDACTED] Shares in issue immediately after the [REDACTED] (but not taking into account of our Shares which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of the [REDACTED]orany options that may be granted under the Share Option Scheme), would result in up to [REDACTED] Shares being bought back by our Company during the period until:

(i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of our Company;

(ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of our Company is required by any applicable law or the Articles to be held; or

(iii) the date on which the Buyback Mandate is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of our Shareholders in general meeting, whichever occurs first.

(e) General

None of our Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), has any present intention if the Buyback Mandate is exercised to sell any Share(s) to our Company or our subsidiaries.

Our Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the Buyback Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

If as a result of a buyback of Shares pursuant to the Buyback Mandate, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of our Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert, depending on the level of increase of the Shareholders’ interest, could obtain or consolidate control of our Company and may become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code as a result of any such increase. Save as disclosed above, our Directors are not aware of any consequence that would arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of a buyback pursuant to the Buyback Mandate.

–IV-6– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX IV STATUTORY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

If the Buyback Mandate is fully exercised immediately following completion of the Capitalisation Issue and the [REDACTED] (but not taking into account our Shares which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of the [REDACTED]orany option which may be granted under the Share Option Scheme), the total number of Shares which will be bought back pursuant to the Buyback Mandate will be [REDACTED] Shares, being 10% of the total number of Shares based on the aforesaid assumptions. Any buyback of Shares which results in the number of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than the prescribed percentage of our Shares then in issue could only be implemented with the approval of the Stock Exchange to waive the Listing Rules requirements regarding the public float under Rule 8.08 of the Listing Rules. However, our Directors have no present intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that, in the circumstances, there is insufficient public float as prescribed under the Listing Rules.

No core connected person of our Company has notified our Group that he/she/it has a present intention to sell Shares to our Company, or has undertaken not to do so, if the Buyback Mandate is exercised.

The Share Option Scheme will provide the Eligible Participants an opportunity to have a personal stake in our Company with the view to achieving the following objectives:

(i) motivate the Eligible Participants to optimise their performance efficiency for the benefit of our Group; and

(ii) attract and retain or otherwise maintain an on-going business relationship with the Eligible Participants whose contributions are or will be beneficial to the long-term growth of our Group.

(b) Who may join

The Board may, at its discretion, offer to grant an option to the following persons (collectively the “Eligible Participants”) to subscribe for such number of new Shares as the Board may determine at an exercise price determined in accordance with paragraph (f) below:

(i) any full-time or part-time employees, executives or officers of our Company or any of our subsidiaries;

(ii) any directors (including non-executive directors and independent non-executive directors) of our Company or any of our subsidiaries; and

(iii) any advisors, consultants, suppliers, customers, distributors and such other persons who, in the sole opinion of the Board will contribute or have contributed to our Company or any of our subsidiaries.

Upon acceptance of the option, the grantee shall pay HK$1.00 to our Company by way of consideration for the grant.

(c) Acceptance of an offer of options

An option shall be deemed to have been granted and accepted by the grantee and to have taken effect when the duplicate offer document constituting acceptances of the options duly signed by the grantee, together with a remittance or payment in favour of our Company of HK$1.00 by way of consideration for the grant thereof, is received by our Company on or before the relevant acceptance date. Such remittance or payment shall in no circumstances be refundable. Any offer to grant an option to subscribe for Shares may be accepted in respect of less than the number of Shares for which it is offered provided that it is accepted in respect of a board lot for dealing in Shares on the Stock Exchange or an integral multiple thereof and such number is clearly stated in the duplicate offer document constituting acceptance of the option. To the extent that the offer to grant an option is not accepted by any prescribed acceptance date, it shall be deemed to have been irrevocably declined.

Subject to paragraphs (l), (m), (n), (o) and (p), an Option shall be exercised in whole or in part and, other than where it is exercised to the full extent outstanding, shall be exercised in integral multiples of such number of Shares as shall represent one board lot for dealing in Shares on the Stock Exchange for the time being, by the grantee by giving notice in writing to our Company stating that the option is thereby exercised and the number of Shares in respect of which it is exercised. Each such notice must be accompanied by a remittance or payment for the full amount of the exercise price for our Shares in respect of which the notice is given. Within 21 days after receipt of the notice and the remittance or payment and, where appropriate, receipt of the certificate by the auditors to our Company or the approved independent financial advisor as the case may

– IV-16 – THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT. APPENDIX IV STATUTORY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

be pursuant to paragraph (r), our Company shall allot and issue the relevant number of Shares to the grantee credited as fully paid and issue to the grantee certificates in respect of our Shares so allotted.

The exercise of any option shall be subject to our Shareholders in general meeting approving any necessary increase in the authorised share capital of our Company.

(d) Maximum number of Shares

The maximum number of Shares in respect of which options may be granted under the Share Option Scheme and under any other share option schemes of our Company must not in aggregate exceed 10% of the total number of Shares in issue immediately following completion of the [REDACTED], being [REDACTED] Shares (excluding any Shares which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of the [REDACTED]), excluding for this purpose Shares which would have been issuable pursuant to options which have lapsed in accordance with the terms of the Share Option Scheme (or any other share option schemes of our Company). Subject to the issue of a circular by our Company and the approval of our Shareholders in general meeting in compliance with Rules 17.03(3) and 17.06 of the Listing Rules and/or such other requirements prescribed under the Listing Rules from time to time, the Board may:

(i) renew this limit at any time to 10% of our Shares in issue as at the date of the approval by our Shareholders in general meeting; and/or

No options shall be granted under any schemes of our Company (including the Share Option Scheme) if this will result in the 30% limit being exceeded. The maximum number of Shares in respect of which options may be granted shall be adjusted, in such manner as the auditors of our Company or an approved independent financial advisor shall certify to be appropriate, fair and reasonable in the event of any alteration in the capital structure of our Company in accordance with paragraph (r) below whether by way of capitalisation issue, rights issue, sub-division or consolidation of shares or reduction of share capital of our Company but in no event shall exceed the limit prescribed in this paragraph.

(r) Effect of alterations to capital

In the event of any alteration in the capital structure of our Company whilst any option may become or remains exercisable, whether by way of capitalisation issue, rights issue, open offer (if there is a price dilutive element), consolidation, sub-division or reduction of share capital of our Company, or otherwise howsoever, such corresponding alterations (if any) shall be made in the number or nominal amount of Shares subject to any options so far as unexercised and/or the subscription price per Share of each outstanding option as the auditors of our Company or an independent financial advisor shall certify in writing to the Board to be in their/his/her opinion fair and reasonable in compliance with Rule 17.03(13) of the Listing Rules and the note thereto and the supplementary guidance issued by the Stock Exchange on 5 September 2005 and any future guidance and interpretation of the Listing Rules issued by the Stock Exchange from time to time and the note thereto.
