ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION TO THE DIRECTORS OF C&D PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT GROUP CO., LTD (FORMERLY KNOWN AS LI CHI INTERNATIONAL LIMITED) AND INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL CORPORATION HONG KONG SECURITIES LIMITED

Introduction

We report on the historical financial information of C&D Property Development Group Co., Ltd (formerly known as Li Chi International Limited) (the ‘‘Company’’) and its subsidiaries (together, the ‘‘Group’’) set out on pages I-4 to I-77, which comprises the consolidated statements of financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, the statements of financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, and the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statements of changes in equity and the consolidated statements of cash flows for each of the years ended 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and the six months ended 30 June 2020 (the ‘‘Track Record Period’’) and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (together, the ‘‘Historical Financial Information’’). The Historical Financial Information set out on pages I-4 to I-77 forms an integral part of this report, which has been prepared for inclusion in the listing document of the Company dated [REDACTED] (the ‘‘listing document’’) in connection with the initial listing of shares of the Company on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

Directors’ responsibility for the Historical Financial Information

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the Historical Financial Information that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of presentation and preparation set out in notes 1.3 and 2.1 respectively to the Historical Financial Information, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the Historical Financial Information that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Reporting accountant’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Historical Financial Information and to report our opinion to you. We conducted our work in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Investment Circular Reporting Engagements 200 ‘‘Accountants’ Reports on Historical Financial Information in Investment Circulars’’ issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (‘‘HKICPA’’).

– I-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 I ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

This standard requires that we comply with ethical standards and plan and perform our work to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Financial Information is free from material misstatement.

Our work involved performing procedures to obtain evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Financial Information. The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountant’s judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the Historical Financial Information, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the reporting accountant considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of Historical Financial Information that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of presentation and preparation set out in notes 1.3 and 2.1 respectively to the Historical Financial Information in order to design procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Our work also included evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Historical Financial Information.

We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion the Historical Financial Information gives, for the purpose of the accountant’s report, a true and fair view of the Group’s consolidated financial position as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020 and the Company’s financial position as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020 and of the Group’s consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flows for each of the Track Record Period in accordance with the basis of presentation and preparation set out in notes 1.3 and 2.1 respectively to the Historical Financial Information.

Review of stub period comparative financial information

We have reviewed the stub period comparative financial information of the Group which comprises the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended 30 June 2019 and other explanatory information (the ‘‘Stub Period Comparative Financial Information’’). The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information in accordance with the basis of presentation and preparation set out in notes 1.3 and 2.1 respectively to the Historical Financial Information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 ‘‘Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity’’ issued by the HKICPA. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information, for the

All companies comprising the Group have adopted 31 December as their financial year end date.

1.3 Basis of presentation

Pursuant to the Reorganisation as more fully explained in the ‘‘History, Reorganisation and Corporate Structure’’ of the listing document, the companies now comprising the Group, engaging in the Spin-off Business were under common control of Xiamen C&D, the ultimate holding company, immediately before and after the Reorganisation. Accordingly, the Reorganisation is regarded as a business combination under common control, and for the purpose of this report, the Historical Financial Information has been prepared using the principles of merger accounting, as prescribed in Hong Kong Accounting Guideline 5 ‘‘Merger Accounting for Common Control Combinations’’ issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (‘‘HKICPA’’) as if the current group structure had been in existence throughout the Track Record Period presented, or since the date when the combining companies first came under the control of Xiamen C&D, whichever is a shorter period. For the purpose of this report, the Historical Financial Information has been prepared as if the transfer of the Excluded Companies had taken place on 1 January 2017 (i.e. at the beginning of the Track Record Period). Accordingly, the results of the Excluded Companies during the Track Record Period and all assets and liabilities directly related to the Excluded Companies have been excluded in the Historical Financial Information.

The consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statements of cash flows of the Group for the Track Record Period and the six months ended 30 June 2019 include the results and cash flows of all companies now comprising the Group but excluding the results of the Excluded Companies from the earliest date presented or since the date when the subsidiaries and/or business first came under the common control of Xiamen C&D, where this is a shorter period.

The consolidated statements of financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 have been prepared to present the assets and liabilities of the combining companies using the existing book values from the Xiamen C&D’s perspective. No amount is recognised in consideration for goodwill or excess of acquirer’s interest in the net fair value of acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the time of combination under common control, to the extent of the continuation of the controlling party’s interest.

For companies acquired from a third party during each of the years ended 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and six months ended 30 June 2020, they are included in the Historical Financial Information from the date of the acquisition and accounted for using acquisition method as set out in note 2.3 to the Historical Financial Information.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains/losses on transactions between group companies are eliminated on consolidation.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied throughout the Track Record Period, unless otherwise stated.

2.1 Basis of preparation

The Historical Financial Information of the Company has been prepared in accordance with all applicable Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (‘‘HKFRS’’) which collective term includes all applicable individual Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards (‘‘HKASs’’) and Interpretations issued by the HKICPA. All HKFRSs effective for the accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2020 together with the relevant transition provisions, including HKFRS 9 ‘‘Financial Instruments’’ (‘‘HKFRS 9’’), HKFRS 15 ‘‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’’ (‘‘HKFRS 15’’) and the related amendments, HKFRS 16 ‘‘Leases’’ (‘‘HKFRS 16’’) and amendments to HKFRS 3 ‘‘Definition of a Business’’ (‘‘HKFRS 3’’) have been early adopted by the Group in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information throughout the Track Record Period. The new and amended HKFRSs issued but not yet effective for the year beginning on or after 1 June 2020 are set out in note 2.2. The Historical Financial Information also complies with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange.

The Historical Financial Information has been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (‘‘FVTPL’’) (see note 2.8) which are stated at fair value. The Company’s functional currency is HK$. However, the Historical Financial Information is presented in Renminbi (‘‘RMB’’), as the directors of the Company consider that RMB is the functional currency of the primary economic environment in which most of the transactions of the Operating Companies in the PRC are denominated and settled in and this presentation is more useful for its current and potential investors. The Historical Financial Information is presented in thousands of RMB (‘‘RMB’000’’) unless otherwise stated.

The preparation of Historical Financial Information in conformity with HKFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Historical Financial Information are disclosed in note 3.

2.2 Issued but not yet effective HKFRSs

The Group has not early applied the following new and amended standards, amendments and interpretations (‘‘new and amended HKFRSs’’) which have been issued but are not yet effective:

HKFRS 17 Insurance Contract2 Amendments to HKAS 1 Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current4 Amendments to HKFRS 3 Reference to the Conceptual Framework6 Amendments to HKFRS 10 and Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint HKAS 28 Venture5 Amendments to HKFRS 16 Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions1 Amendments to HKAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended Use3 Amendments to HKAS 37 Onerous Contracts — Cost of Fulfilling a Contract3 Amendments to HKFRS Standards Annual Improvements to HKFRS Standards 2018–20203

1 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 June 2020 2 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021 3 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022 4 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023 5 Effective date to be determined 6 Effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2022

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.

2.3 Basis of consolidation and business combinations

The Historical Financial Information incorporates the financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries made up to respective year and period 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.

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 in the results and equity of subsidiaries are presented separately in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statements of financial position.

(i) 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 consolidated 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.

(ii) Business combinations not under common control

The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations not under common control. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date.

The Group recognises any non-controlling interests in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Non-controlling interests in the acquiree that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation are measured at either fair value or the

– I-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 I ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

present ownership interests’ proportionate share in the recognised amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. All other components of non-controlling interests are measured at their acquisition-date fair value, unless another measurement basis is required by HKFRS. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interests recognised and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference, after reassessment, is recognised directly in profit or loss.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement are recognised in profit or loss.

Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. When necessary, amounts reported by subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform to the Group’s accounting policies.

(iii) Change in ownership interests

When the Group ceases to consolidate or equity account for an investment because of a loss of control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss or transferred to another category of equity as specified or permitted by applicable HKFRSs.

Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions — that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.

(iv) Separate financial statements

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment loss. Cost includes direct attributable costs of investment. The results of subsidiaries are accounted for by the Company on the basis of dividend received and receivable.

Impairment testing of the investments in subsidiaries is required upon receiving a dividend from these investments if the dividend exceeds the total comprehensive income of the subsidiary in the period the dividend is declared or if the carrying amount of the investment in the separate financial statements exceeds the carrying amount of the investee’s net assets including goodwill in the consolidated statements of financial position.

2.4 Associates

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence, which is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control of those policies.

In the Historical Financial Information, investments in associates are initially recognised at cost and subsequently accounted for using the equity method. Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associates recognised at the date of acquisition is recognised as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is assessed for impairment as part of the investment. The cost of acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed and equity instruments issued by the Group, plus any costs directly attributable to the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets,

– 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 ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of acquisition, after reassessment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss in the determination of the Group’s share of the associates’ profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired.

Under the equity method, the Group’s interest in associates are carried at cost and adjusted for the post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of the associates’ 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 Track Record Period includes the Group’s share of the post-acquisition, post-tax results of the associates and any impairment loss on the investment in associate recognised for the Track Record Period.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in associates.

Where the associate uses accounting policies other than those of the Group for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, adjustments are made, where necessary, to conform the associate’s accounting policies to those of the Group when the associate’s financial statements are used by the Group in applying the equity method.

When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. For this purpose, the Group’s interest in the associate is the carrying amount of the investment under the equity method together with the Group’s long-term interests that in substance form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate.

The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount (i.e. higher of value in use and fair value less costs of disposal) of the associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount adjacent to share of result from associate in profit or loss.

The Group discontinues the use of equity method from the date when it ceases to have significant influence over an associate. If the retained interest in that former associate is a financial asset, the retained interest is measured at fair value, which is regarded as its fair value on initial recognition as a financial asset in accordance with HKFRS 9. The difference between (i) the fair value of any retained interest and any proceeds from disposing of a part interest in the associate; and (ii) the carrying amount of the investment at the date the equity method was discontinued, is recognised in the profit or loss. In addition, the Group accounts for all amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate on the same basis as would have been required if the associate had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. Therefore, if a gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income by the investee would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities, the entity reclassifies the gain or loss from equity to profit or loss (as a reclassification adjustment) when the equity method is discontinued.

2.5 Foreign currency translation

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements 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’’).

(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/period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the profit or loss.

– 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 ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

(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 rate 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 and accumulated separately in ‘‘Exchange reserve’’ in equity.

2.6 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses (see note 2.20). Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

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. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repair and maintenance costs are charged to profit or loss during the Track Record Period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation on items of property, plant and equipment is provided to write off the cost less their residual values over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method, at the following rates per annum:

Leasehold improvement 12.50% to 33.33% Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 20% to 50% Motor vehicles 12.50% to 33.33%

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

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.

2.7 Goodwill

Goodwill arising on a business combination is recognised as an asset at the date that control is acquired (the acquisition date). Goodwill is measured as the excess of the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree, if any, over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets and liabilities measured as at the acquisition date.

If, after reassessment, the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets and liabilities measured exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.

– 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 ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

Goodwill is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses (see note 2.20). Goodwill arising on a business combination is allocated to each cash-generating unit or groups of cash-generating units, which is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination and is tested at least annually for impairment. In respect of associates, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the interests in associates. On disposal of a cash-generating unit or an associate, any attributable amount of goodwill is included in the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal.

2.8 Financial instruments

Recognition and derecognition

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, in case of financial assets or liabilities not at FVTPL, are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and substantially all of its risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.

Classification and initial measurement of financial assets

Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with HKFRS 15, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value, in case of a financial asset not at FVTPL, plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.

Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVTPL are expensed in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Financial assets, other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments, are classified into the following categories:

— amortised cost; or

— FVTPL.

Theclassificationisdeterminedbyboth:

— the entity’s business model for managing the financial asset; and

— the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within ‘‘Finance income, net’’, except for expected credit losses (‘‘ECL’’) of trade receivables which is presented as separate items in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Subsequent measurement of financial assets

Debt investments

Financial assets at amortised cost

Non-equity investments held by the Group are classified into amortised cost, if the investment is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the investment and collect its contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the investment give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Interest income from the investment is calculated using the effective interest method (note 2.18).

After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest income from these financial assets is included in ‘‘Finance income, net’’ in profit or loss. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted bank deposits, amounts due from related parties and trade and other receivables (excluding prepayments and value-added tax recoverable) fall into this category of financial assets. The Company’s financial assets include amount due from an immediate holding company which are shown on the face of the statements of financial position of the Company.

FinancialassetsatFVTPL

Financial assets that are held within a different business model other than ‘‘holdtocollect’’ or ‘‘hold to collect and sell’’ are categorised at FVTPL. Further, irrespective of business model, financial assets whose contractual cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest are accounted for at FVTPL. The Group’s unlisted subordinated tranche securities fall into this category of financial assets.

Financial liabilities

Classification and measurement of financial liabilities

The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, amounts due to related parties, lease liabilities and receipts under securitisation arrangements. They are separately shown on the face of the consolidated statements of financial position.

Financial liabilities (other than lease liabilities) are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at FVTPL.

Subsequently, financial liabilities (other than lease liabilities) are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives which are not designated and effective as hedging instruments and financial liabilities designated at FVTPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss.

All interest related charges are recognised in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy for borrowing costs (see note 2.22).

Accounting policies of lease liabilities is set out in note 2.14.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities including trade and other payables and amounts due to related parties, which are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

– 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 ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

Receipts under securitisation arrangements

Receipts under securitisation arrangements are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Receipts under securitisation arrangements are subsequently stated at amortised cost, any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period using the effective interest method. Transaction costs are included in the carrying amount of the receipts under securitisation arrangements and amortised over the period of the arrangements using the effective interest method.

2.9 Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the consolidated 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 assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Group or the counterparty.

2.10 Impairment of financial assets

HKFRS 9’s impairment requirements use more forward-looking information to recognise ECL — the ‘‘ECL model’’. Instruments within the scope included loans and other debt-type financial assets measured at amortised cost, trade receivables and some financial guarantee contracts (for the issuer) that are not measured at FVTPL.

The Group considers a broader range of information when assessing credit risk and measuring ECL, including past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected collectability of the future cash flows of the instrument.

In applying this forward-looking approach, a distinction is made between:

— financial instruments that have not deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition or that have low credit risk (‘‘Stage 1’’)and

— financial instruments that have deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition and whose credit risk is not low (‘‘Stage 2’’).

‘‘Stage 3’’ would cover financial assets that have objective evidence of impairment at each reporting date.

‘‘12-month ECL’’ are recognised for the Stage 1 category while ‘‘lifetime ECL’’ are recognised for the Stage 2 category.

Measurement of the ECL is determined by a probability-weighted estimate of expected credit losses over the expected life of the financial asset.

Trade receivables

For trade receivables, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating ECL and recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECL at each reporting date. These are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the potential for default at any point during the life of the financial assets. In calculating the ECL, the Group has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience and external indicators of the trade receivables with similar credit risk characteristics, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.

To measure the ECL, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the past due status.

– I-26 – 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 ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

Other financial assets measured at amortised cost

The Group measures the loss allowance for other receivables equal to 12-month ECL, unless when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the Group recognises lifetime ECL. The assessment of whether lifetime ECL should be recognised is based on significant increase in the likelihood or risk of default occurring since initial recognition.

In assessing whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial assets at each reporting date with the risk of default occurring on the financial assets at the date of initial recognition. In making this assessment, 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:

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

— significant deterioration in external market indicators of credit risk, e.g. a significant increase in the credit spread, the credit default swap prices for the debtor;

— existing or forecast adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant decrease in the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations;

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

— an actual or expected significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the debtor that results in a significant decrease in the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations.

Despite the foregoing, the Group assumes that the credit risk on a debt instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition if the debt instrument is determined to have low credit risk at each reporting date. A debt instrument is determined to have low credit risk if it has a low risk of default, the borrower has strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term and adverse changes in economic and business conditions in the longer term may, but will not necessarily, reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfil its contractual cash flow obligations.

For internal credit risk management, the Group considers an event of default occurs when 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).

Detailed analysis of the ECL assessment of trade receivables and other financial assets measured at amortised cost are set out in note 32.2.

2.11 Inventories

(a) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses.

When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expenses in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of write-down of inventories is recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

(b) Other contract costs

Other contract costs are the costs to fulfil a contract with a customer which are not capitalised as inventories (note 2.11(a)) or property, plant and equipment (note 2.6).

Costs to fulfil a contract are capitalised if the costs relate directly to an existing contract or to a specifically identifiable anticipated contract; generate or enhance resources that will be used to provide goods or services in the future; and are expected to be recovered. Costs that relate directly to an existing contract or to a specifically identifiable anticipated contract may include direct labour, direct materials, allocations of costs, costs that are explicitly chargeable to the customer and other costs that are incurred only because the Group entered into the contract (for example, payments to sub-contractors). Other costs of fulfilling a contract, which are not capitalised as inventory, property, plant and equipment or intangible assets, are expensed as incurred.

Capitalised contract costs are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Impairment losses are recognised to the extent that the carrying amount of the contract cost asset exceeds the net of (i) remaining amount of consideration that the Group expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services to which the asset relates, less (ii) any costs that relate directly to providing those goods or services that have not yet been recognised as expenses.

Amortisation of capitalised contract costs is chargedtoprofitorlosswhentherevenuetowhichtheasset relates is recognised. The accounting policy for revenue recognition is set out in note 2.17.

2.12 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash at banks and on hand, demand deposits with banks and short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash and cash equivalents are assessed for ECLs in accordance with the policy set out in note 2.10.

2.13 Contract liabilities

A contract liability is recognised when the customer pays consideration before the Group recognises the related revenue (see note 2.17). 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 2.8). For a contract where the period between the payment by the customer and the transfer of the promised goods or services is one year or less, the transaction price is not adjusted for the effects of a significant financing component, using the practical expedient in HKFRS 15.

2.14 Leases

The Group as a lessee

When entering into new contracts, 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;

. 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 assesses whether it has the right to direct ‘how and for what purpose’ the asset is used throughout the period of use.

– I-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. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee

At the lease commencement date, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the consolidated statements 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 for impairment when such indicator exists.

At the lease 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.

When the lease is remeasured, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the right-of-use asset, or profit or 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 recognising 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 twelve months or less.

The Group presents right-of-use assets as a separate line item on the consolidated statements of financial position.

2.15 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 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.

2.16 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.

2.17 Revenue recognition

The Group provides property management services, community value-added and synergy services, and value-added services to non-property owners. 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.

For property management services income from properties managed on a 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. For property management services income from properties managed on a commission basis, the Group recognises the commission, which is calculated by certain percentage of the total property management fee received or receivable from the property owners, or total property management cost incurred or accrual by the property owners, as its revenue for arranging and monitoring the services as provided by other suppliers to the property owners.

Community value-added and synergy services

Community value-added and synergy services mainly include (i) home living services to property owners and residents, such as housekeeping and cleaning services, repair and maintenance service and group-purchasing services, which are charged for each service provided and recognised when the relevant services are rendered; (ii) commission income from real estate brokerage and asset management services for secondary sales and rental of properties and/or car parking spaces, which is billed to property owners and third parties immediately upon the services are provided and is recognised on a net basis at point in time; (iii) revenue from value-added services for public areas, such as leasing out public area and advertising spots and temporary parking management, which is recognised over the time when such services are rendered; (iv) revenue from elderly-care and health value-added services through operation of an elderly-care centre, which is recognised over time with reference to the detailed terms of transactions as stipulated in the contracts entered into with its customers and counterparties; (v) smart community services mainly include design, construction operation and maintenance of smart property management systems and sales of intelligent equipment and software as part of the design and construction services of smart property management system. Revenue from smart community services is recognised over time as the Group’s performance creates or enhances an assets that the customer controls. The progress towards complete satisfaction of performance obligation is measured based on output method, which is to recognise revenue on the basis of direct measurements of the value of the services transferred to the customer to date relative to the remaining service promised under the contract, that best depict the Group’s performance in transferring control of services. The value of the services transferred to customer to date is measured according to the progress certificate (by reference to the engineering works certified by the customers or their agents). Revenue from the sale of intelligent hardware devices and software for a fixed fee is recognised at point in time when (or as) the Group transfers control of the assets to the customer.

Value-added services to non-property owners

Value-added services to non-property owners mainly includes (i) reception, order maintenance and cleaning services, such as visit reception customers enquiries, security and order maintenance, daily utilities and maintenance services and assistance on the pre-sales activities at the pre-sales centre, which are billed on a monthly basis and revenue is recognised over time as the customers simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group’s performance as the Group performs; and (ii) consultancy services, which are billed based on the pre- determined price calculated under estimated cost plus method and revenue is recognised over time when the services are provided.

2.18 Interest income

Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method. For financial assets measured at amortised cost that are not credit-impaired, the effective interest rate is applied to the gross carrying amount of the asset.

2.19 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 income is presented in gross under ‘‘Other income’’ in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

2.20 Impairment of non-financial assets

Property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, goodwill, interests in associates and interest in a subsidiary in the statements of financial position of the Company are subject to impairment testing.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually, irrespective of whether there is any indication that they are impaired. All other assets 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. Corporate assets are allocated to individual cash-generating units, when a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified. Goodwill in particular is allocated to those cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from synergies of the related business combination and represent the lowest level within the Group at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purpose and not be larger than an operating segment.

Impairment losses recognised for cash-generating units, to which goodwill has been allocated, are credited initially to the carrying amount of goodwill. Any remaining impairment loss is charged pro rata to the other assets in the cash- generating unit, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less cost of disposal, or value in use, if determinable.

An impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. In respect of other assets, an impairment loss is reversed 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.

2.21 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.

2.22 Borrowing costs

Given the Group has no qualifying assets during the Track Record Period, all borrowing costs are recognised in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the period in which they are incurred.

2.23 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 each 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 Track Record Period. 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 each reporting date between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Historical Financial Information 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 goodwill or from initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither taxable nor accounting profit or loss.

– I-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. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, 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.

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 each 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.

2.24 Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-makers (‘‘CODM’’), who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the executive directors that make strategic decisions.

2.25 Dividend distribution

Dividend distribution to the Company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the period which the dividends are approved by the Company’s shareholders or board of directors, where appropriate.

2.26 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

(iii) is a member of the key management personnel of the Group or of a 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.

(a) Critical accounting judgements

Current and deferred income taxes

As detailed in note 9, the Group is subject to corporate 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. As at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are RMB1,875,000, RMB4,205,000, RMB5,892,000 and RMB5,420,000, respectively. Details of deferred tax assets are set out in note 25.

Deferred tax liabilities have not been recognised as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020 in respect of temporary differences relating to the post-2007 undistributed profits of the PRC subsidiaries of approximately RMB71,619,000, RMB120,769,000, RMB181,730,000 and RMB209,781,000, respectively as the Company controls the dividend policy of these subsidiaries and it has been determined that it is probable that these profits will not be distributed in the foreseeable future.

Control over Zhangzhou Yijiayuan Yuegang

Although the Group only holds 50% equity interests in Zhangzhou Yijiayuan Yuegang, the Group has the power to appoint and remove the majority members of the board of directors of Zhangzhou Yijiayuan Yuegang and holds more than half of the voting rights by virtue of an agreement with other investors. The management of the Group considered that the Group has sufficiently dominant voting interest to direct the relevant activities of Zhangzhou Yijiayuan Yuegang and therefore has control over Zhangzhou Yijiayuan Yuegang. As a result, Zhangzhou Yijiayuan Yuegang is classified as subsidiary of the Company.

(b) Key sources of estimation uncertainties

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:

Estimation of impairment of trade and other receivables (excluding prepayments, and value-added tax recoverable), and amounts due from related parties within the scope of ECL under HKFRS 9

The Group follows the guidance of HKFRS 9 to makes allowances on items subjects to ECL including trade and other receivables (excluding prepayments and value-added tax recoverable), and amounts due from related parties, based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Group uses 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 each reporting date as set out in note 2.10. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying amounts of trade and other receivables, and amounts due from related parties and provision for impairment in the periods in which such estimate has been changed.

As at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, the carrying amounts of trade and other receivables are RMB54,066,000, RMB62,744,000, RMB72,374,000 and RMB156,122,000, respectively; the carrying amounts of amounts due from related parties are RMB1,472,050,000, RMB1,289,653,000, RMB1,344,229,000 and RMB387,727,000, respectively. Details of the provision for ECL allowance of trade and other receivables and amounts due from related parties are set out in notes 19 and 22 respectively.

Estimated impairment of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets

Property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets are stated at costs less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. In determining whether an asset is impaired, the Group has to exercise judgement and make estimation, particularly in assessing: (1) whether an event has occurred or any indicators that may affect the asset value; (2) whether the carrying value of an asset can be supported by the recoverable amount, in the case of value in use, the net present value of future cash flows which are estimated based upon the continued use of the asset; and (3) the appropriate key assumptions to be applied in estimating the recoverable amounts including cash flow projections and an appropriate discount rate. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset (including right-of-use assets), the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the assets belongs. Changing the assumptions and estimates, including the discount rates or the growth rate in the cash flow projections, could materially affect the net present value of future cash flows projections used in the impairment test. The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets at each reporting date are set out in notes 13 and 14 to the Historical Financial Information respectively.

Depreciation charges of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets

Property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives and lease period of the assets, after taking into account the estimated residual value, if any. The Group reviews the estimated useful lives and lease period of the assets regularly in order to determine the amount of depreciation expenses to be recorded during the Track Record Period. The useful lives and lease period are based on the Group’s historical experience with similar assets and taking into account anticipated technological changes. The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets at each reporting date are set out in notes 13 and 14 to the Historical Financial Information respectively.

Estimation of fair value of financial instruments not traded in an active market

As at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, financial instruments that are not traded in an active market including unlisted subordinated tranche securities. The fair values are determined by using valuation techniques, details of which are set out in note 32.7. This involves developing estimates and assumptions consistent with how market participants would price the instrument. The Group bases its assumptions on observable data as far as possible but this is not always available, in that case the Group uses the best information available.

4. REVENUE AND SEGMENT INFORMATION

Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by CODM. The CODM, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segment, has been identified as the executive directors.

During the Track Record Period, the Group are principally engaged in the provision of property management services and value-added services in the PRC. Management reviews the operating results of the business by geographical location but these operating segments are aggregated into a single reportable segment as the nature of services, the type of customers for services, the methods used to provide their services and the nature of regulatory environment is same in different regions.

The principal operating entities of the Group are domiciled in the PRC. Accordingly, all of the Group’srevenuewere derived in the PRC during the Track Record Period.

Revenue mainly comprises proceeds from property management services and value-added services. An analysis of the Group’s revenue by category for the years ended 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and for the six months ended 30 June 2019 and 2020 are as follows:

Information about major customers

For the years ended 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and for the six months ended 30 June 2019 and 2020, revenue from entities controlled by Xiamen C&D and its associates contributed to 26%, 19%, 16%, 16% (unaudited) and 9% of the Group’s revenue, respectively; revenue from entities controlled by C&D International and its associates contributed to 6%, 12%, 16%, 14% (unaudited) and 21% of the Group’s revenue, respectively. Other than entities controlled by Xiamen C&D and associates of Xiamen C&D, the Group had a large number of customers and none of whom contributed 10% or more of the Group’s revenue for the Track Record Period.

Geographical information

The major operating entities of the Group are domiciled in the PRC. As at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, substantially all of the specified non-current assets (other than deferred tax assets and financial assets at FVTPL) of the Group were located in the PRC.

(a) Contract liabilities

The Group recognises the following revenue-related contract liabilities:

As at 31 December As at 30 June 2017 2018 2019 2020 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000

Property management services 39,553 40,920 89,162 136,247 Community value-added and synergy services 12,735 23,605 30,191 37,548

52,288 64,525 119,353 173,795

Contract liabilities of the Group mainly arise from the advance payments made by customers while the underlying services are yet to be provided. Such liabilities increased as a result of the growth of the Group’s business.

(b) Revenue recognised in relation to contract liabilities

The following table shows the revenue recognised during the Track Record Period related to carried-forward contract liabilities:

Year ended 31 December Six months ended 30 June 2017 2018 2019 2019 2020 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000 (Unaudited)

40,079 46,367 56,161 31,179 57,144

(c) Unsatisfied performance obligations

For property management services, the Group recognises revenue in the amount that equals to the right to invoice which correspond directly with the value to the customer of the Group’s performance to date on a monthly basis. The Group has elected the practical expedient for not to disclose the remaining performance obligation for these types of contracts. For value-added services to non-property developers, the Group expects that the majority of the contract amounts allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations will be recognised as revenue from providing services during the next reporting period.

Notes:

(a) BVI

Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the BVI, the Group is not subject to any income tax in the BVI during the Track Record Period.

(b) Hong Kong profits tax

No Hong Kong profits tax has been provided as the Group did not derive any assessable profit arising in Hong Kong during the Track Record Period.

(c) PRC EIT

The right-of-use assets represented leases offices, car parking space and building in the PRC. The leases of offices, car parking space and building in the PRC typically run for an initial period of 2 to 20 years. The Group has entered into an agreement with the local government department to operate an elderly-care centre for 20 years, in which the lessor provided a rent-free period during the first 15 years and the rentals would increase progressively by a fixed annual percentage of 3% starting from the 17th year until the end of the rental period. None of the leases includes variable lease payments. Certain leases include an option to renew the lease for an additional period after the end of the contract term. The Group assesses at lease commencement date whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the extension options and concluded that it is not reasonably certain to exercise the extension options. Accordingly, the future lease payments during the extension periods are not included in the measurement of the right-of-use assets.

Pursuant to the EIT Law of the PRC, a 10% withholding tax is levied on dividends declared to foreign investors from the foreign investment enterprises established in the PRC. The requirement is effective from 1 January 2008 and applies to earnings after 31 December 2007. A lower withholding tax rate may be applied if there is a tax treaty between the PRC and the jurisdiction of the foreign investors. For the Group, the applicable rate is 10%. The Group is therefore liable for withholding taxes on dividends distributed by the subsidiaries established in the PRC in respect of earnings generated from 1 January 2008.

As at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, deferred tax liabilities have not been recognised in respect of temporary differences relating to the post-2007 profits earned by the PRC subsidiaries amounting to approximately RMB71,619,000, RMB120,769,000, RMB181,730,000 and RMB209,781,000, respectively, because the Group controls the dividend policy of these subsidiaries and it is not probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future.

As at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, the Group has not recognised deferred tax assets in respect of tax losses of approximately RMB1,980,000, RMB3,252,000, RMB5,484,000 and RMB7,852,000, respectively. Of the total unrecognised tax losses, approximately RMB1,980,000, RMB3,252,000, RMB5,484,000 and RMB7,852,000 may be carried forward for 5 years from the year of incurring the loss. No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of those tax losses due to the unpredictability of future profit streams.

31. BUSINESS COMBINATION

On 24 June 2020, the Group has entered into an agreement to acquired an additional equity interest of 51% of Xiamen Bairui at the consideration of RMB24,000,000, the acquisition was completed on 29 June 2020. Xiamen Bairui was previously an associate of the Group (see note 15). After the acquisition, the Group held effective equity interest of 100% of Xiamen Bairui.

Accordingly, the Group re-measured the fair value of its previously held interests in Xiamen Bairui at the date of acquisition and recognised the resulting gain of RMB2,993,000 on the re-measurement of the Group’s previously held interests in Xiamen Bairui to acquisition-date fair value.

Goodwill arose because the consideration paid included amounts in relation to the revenue growth and future market development of the business acquired. These benefits are not recognised separately from goodwill, because they do not meet the recognition criteria for identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purpose.

Details of the carrying value and fair value of the Group’s previously held interests in Xiamen Bairui at the acquisition date are summarised as follows:

RMB’000

Share of net assets 19,511 Less: Fair value of previously held interests (22,504)

Gain on re-measurement of previously held interest in an associate (2,993)

32.2 Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that the counterparty to a financial instrument would fail to discharge its obligation under the terms of the financial instrument and cause a financial loss to the Group. The Group is exposed to credit risk in relation to its cash and cash equivalents, restricted bank deposits, trade and other receivables and amounts due from related parties. The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets is limited to the carrying amounts as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020 as disclosed in note 32.1.

– I-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. APPENDIX I ACCOUNTANT’SREPORT

(i) Trade receivables

The Group has a large number of customers and there was no concentration of credit risk. Credit risks mainly arises from credit exposure from property owners and third-party non-property owner customers with no credit terms except for the customers of smart community services with credit period ranged from 5 to 60 days, and related party customers with no credit terms. The Group has monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverability of these receivables at each reporting date based on historical settlements records and experience and adjusts for forward- looking information, to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts.

The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by HKFRS 9, which permits the use of the lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables has been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the past due status. The ECL model also incorporate forward-looking information.

(ii) Amounts due from related parties

The Group expects that the credit risk associated with amounts due from related parties are considered to be low after considering the factors as set out in note 2.10, since related parties have a strong capacity to meet their contractual cash flow obligations in the near term. Thus, the impact of ECL is insignificant to the Historical Financial Information.

(iii) Other receivables other than amounts due from related parties

For other receivables other than amounts due from related parties, management makes periodic collective assessments on the recoverability of other receivables based on historical settlement records and past experience. The directors believe that there is no material credit risk inherent in the Group’s outstanding balance of other receivables. Thus, ECL recognised during the Track Record Period was limited to 12-month ECL and the ECL model also incorporates forward-looking information.

The Group has performed historical analysis and identified the key economic variables impacting credit risk and expected credit loss. It considers available reasonable and supportive forward-looking information. Especially the following indicators are incorporated:

— internal credit rating;

— external credit rating;

— actual or expected significant adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the debtor’s ability to meet its obligations;

— actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of individual property owner or the debtor;

— significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the individual property owner or thesamedebtor;

— significant changes in the expected performance and behaviour of the debtor, including changes in the payment status of debtors in the Group and changes in the operating results of the debtor.

For cash and cash equivalents and restricted bank deposits, the Group has assessed that they were placed at banks with high-credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. The risk of default is low based on market information and the Group considers the credit risk to be insignificant.

32.3 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, amounts due to related parties, lease liabilities and receipts under securitisation arrangements 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 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 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.

32.4 Interest rate risk

The Group’s interest-bearing assets and liabilities are mainly amounts due from related parties, receipts under securitisation arrangements and lease liabilities, which are at fixed rates and it exposes the Group to fair value interest-rate risk. The Group currently does not use any derivative contracts to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk. However, management will consider hedging significant interest rate exposure should the need arise.

The following table details the interest rate profile of the Group’s interest-bearing financial assets and liabilities at each reporting date.

As at 31 December As at 30 June 2017 2018 2019 2020 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000

Financial instruments with fixed rate Financial assets 212,779 1,285,063 812,620 — Financial liabilities (1,230,962) (1,029,370) (910,413) (914,849)

(1,018,183) 255,693 (97,793) (914,849)

As at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, the Group has no floating-interests-rate interest bearing financial liabilities.

32.5 Other price risk

The Group has been exposed to the price risk of unlisted subordinated tranche securities in connection with the 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 unlisted subordinated tranche securities had been 5% increased/decreased, post-tax profit for the year ended 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020 would have been increased/decreased by approximately RMB1,081,000, RMB1,161,000, RMB1,282,000 and RMB1,832,000 respectively.

The sensitivity analysis indicates the instantaneous change in the Group’s profit after tax (and retained profits) and other components of consolidated equity that would arise assuming that the changes in the relevant risk variables had occurred at each reporting date and had been applied to re-measure those financial instruments held by the Group which expose the Group to equity price risk at each reporting date. It is also assumed that the fair values of the Group’s unlisted subordinated tranche securities would change in accordance with the historical correlation with the relevant risk variables, and that all other variables remain constant.

32.6 Foreign currency risk

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.

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. As at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020, the Group did not have significant foreign currency risk from its operations.

32.7 Fair value measurements of financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial position are grouped into three levels of a fair value hierarchy. The three levels are defined based on the observability and significance of inputs to the measurements, as follows:

. Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

. Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, and not using significant unobservable inputs.

. Level 3: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the financial asset is categorised in its entirety is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are grouped into the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 3 RMB’000

As at 31 December 2017 Financial assets at FVTPL Unlisted subordinated tranche securities 28,820

As at 31 December 2018 Financial assets at FVTPL Unlisted subordinated tranche securities 30,970

As at 31 December 2019 Financial assets at FVTPL Unlisted subordinated tranche securities 34,190

As at 30 June 2020 Financial assets at FVTPL Unlisted subordinated tranche securities 48,850

ThefairvaluesoftheGroup’s unlisted subordinated tranche securities as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020 have been arrived at on the basis of valuation carried out by Cushman & Wakefield International Property Advisers (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd., an independent professional qualified valuer.

The methods and valuation techniques used for the purpose of measuring fair values categorised in Level 3 are unchanged during the Track Record Period and are described below:

Range of unobservable inputs As at Valuation Unobservable As at 31 December 30 June technique input 2017 2018 2019 2020 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000 RMB’000

Unlisted subordinated tranche Discounted cash Discount rate 6.64% 6.53% 5.95% 6.37% securities flow method Discount factor 0.58 0.62 0.68 0.98

Future cash flows are estimated based on applying the expected yields of the financial instruments and the expected rate of return that reflects the credit risks of the financial instrument. The higher the discount rate, the lower the fair value; the higher the discount factor, the higher the fair value.

The reconciliation of the carrying amounts of the Group’s financial instruments classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Unlisted subordinated tranche securities RMB’000

As at 1 January 2017 — Addition 28,820

As at 31 December 2017 and 1 January 2018 28,820 Fair value gain recognised in profit or loss 2,150

As at 31 December 2018 and 1 January 2019 30,970 Fair value gain recognised in profit or loss 3,220

As at 31 December 2019 and 1 January 2020 34,190 Fair value gain recognised in profit or loss 14,660

As at 30 June 2020 48,850

No sensitivity analysis is disclosed for the impact of changes in the relevant unobservable data under discounted cash flow method in respect of unlisted subordinated tranche securities as the management considers that the exposure is insignificant to the Group.

Fair value gain on unlisted subordinated tranche securities is recognised in profit or loss and included under ‘‘Other income’’ (note 5).

There have been no transfers into or out of Level 3 during the years ended 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and the six months ended 30 June 2019 and 2020.

32.8 Fair value of financial assets and liabilities carried at other than fair value

The carrying amounts of the financial instruments of the Group’s carried at cost or amortised cost are not materially different from their fair values as at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 2019 and 30 June 2020.

33. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

The Group actively and regularly reviews its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions. The Group monitors its capital structure on the basis of the net debt to equity ratio. For this purpose, net debt is defined as receipts under securitisation arrangements less cash and cash equivalents. In order to maintain or adjust the ratio, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to the shareholders, issue new shares and raise new debt financing.

During the Track Record Period, the Group’s strategy in monitoring its capital structure was to maintain a sufficient cash level to meet its liquidity requirements. In order to maintain or adjust the cash level, the Group may issue new shares, raise new debts financing or sell assets to increase the cash level.

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
