Our valuation is undertaken by qualified valuers with relevant experiences, as an independent valuer and is prepared in an unbiased and professional manner. Basis of Valuation In arriving at our opinion of market value, we followed “The HKIS Valuation Standards 2017” issued by The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors (“HKIS”) and “The RICS Valuation – Global Standards 2020” issued by The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (“RICS”). Under the said standards, market value is defined as: “the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction, after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.” Market value is understood as the value of an asset or liability estimated without regard to the seller’s costs of sale or the buyer’s costs of purchase and without adjustment for any taxes payable by either party as a direct result of the transaction. 3 Wheelock – Announcement 21 May 2020 21 May 2020 Wheelock and Company Limited Market value is the most probable price reasonably obtainable in the market on the valuation date in keeping with the market value definition. It is the best price reasonably obtainable by the seller and the most advantageous price reasonably obtainable by the buyer. This estimate specifically excludes an estimated price inflated or deflated by special terms or circumstances such as atypical financing, sale and leaseback arrangements, special considerations or concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale, or any element of value available only to a specific owner or purchaser. Our valuation complies with the requirements set out in ‘‘The HKIS Valuation Standards 2017’’ issued by HKIS, ‘‘The RICS Valuation — Global Standards 2020’ issued by RICS and Chapter 5 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. In valuing the Property Interests, we have complied with the requirements set out in Rule 11 of the Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the “Takeovers Code”) published by Securities and Futures Commission. Our valuation is based on 100% of the leasehold Property Interests. Valuation Methodologies In forming our opinion of value of the Property Interests in Group I which are held by the Group for investment, we have adopted the Income Approach on the basis of capitalisation of the rental income derived from the existing tenancies, where applicable, with due provision for the reversionary income potential of the Property Interests, or where appropriate, by the Market Approach by making reference to comparable sale transactions as available in the relevant market. In forming our opinion of value of the Property Interests in Group II which are held by the Group for sale and Group IV which are held by the Group for owner-occupation, we have considered the Market Approach by making reference to sales evidence as available in the market. In forming our opinion of value of the Property Interests in Group III which are held by the Group for development, we have valued them based on the development proposals, estimated development costs and costs incurred as at the Valuation Date, etc as provided to us and that they will be developed and completed in accordance with the latest development proposals given by the Group. We have assumed that all consents, approvals and licenses from relevant government authorities for the development proposals have been or will be obtained without onerous conditions or delays. We have also assumed that the design and construction of the developments are in compliance with the local planning and other relevant regulations and have been or will be approved by the relevant authorities.
