Total 396 100%
A. Driving cross-functional collaboration to reduce costs and improve efficiency
During the reporting period China’s macroeconomic recovery remained sluggish with weak consumer
demand driving a sustained decline in most meat prices—except for pork. This triggered a widespread
exit of backyard farms and accelerated consolidation in the livestock sector intensifying competition
and adding further margin pressure on upstream feed producers. To absorb excess capacity from
previous expansions and boost utilization rates feed producers in some regions resorted to price
competition. Amid such fierce industry rivalry we reinforced cross-functional coordination to reduce
costs enhance efficiency and strengthen overall competitiveness. On the technical front we continued
upgrading nutritional systems and feeding models refined feed formulation database and boosted the
commercialization of R&D outcomes. Efforts focused on reducing feed costs per kilogram of weight gain
with high-volume product lines delivering steady improvements in both cost-effectiveness and market
competitiveness. In procurement we continued strengthening core sourcing organization. For key raw
material categories we built internal long-term talent pipelines and engaged external experts to
support major purchasing decisions. These measures significantly enhanced our market analysis. These
combined efforts significantly improved our market intelligence and price forecasting capabilities. In
2024 our average procurement prices for both energy and protein feed raw materials remained well
below industry averages. In operations we maintained commitment to lean management by tightening
control over material losses inventory and labor productivity. We continuously improved processing
techniques and made steady progress in standardizing process parameters across production lines.
9 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
Under joint oversight from the quality assurance and production teams we achieved notable
improvements in key areas such as grinding mixing and pelleting efficiency along with higher pellet
durability and compliance rates. Collectively these efforts delivered tangible gains in cost efficiency and
overall operational performance.B. Navigating challenges through internal strength and external agility
During the reporting period China’s sow inventory began to recover from prior lows with the rebound
progressing notably faster in southern regions than northern regions. In the poultry sector production
capacity continued to grow after several consecutive years of expansion. However sluggish
consumption placed sustained pressure on prices across the value chain resulting in significant losses
for mid- and downstream operators. In the ruminant sector persistently low milk prices left regional
dairy producers in a difficult position while beef cattle farming remained structurally unprofitable. As a
result overall demand for ruminant feed declined sharply over the course of the year. To address these
market challenges our feed business adopted a dual-track strategy—reinforcing internal benchmarking
and service infrastructure to strengthen operational capabilities while actively expanding external
markets. We pursued both volume and profitability targets in parallel and formulated targeted
responsive strategies for different feed categories based on shifting market dynamics. In swine feed we
capitalized on improvements in sow reproduction and finishing (hog fattening) systems to accelerate
growth in our commercial feed business. Our frontline managers visited farms to learn about swine
farming gaining firsthand insight into procurement production and biosecurity practices to better
identify customer pain points and tailor service delivery. Drawing on our integrated swine farming
resources we strengthened service and marketing system enabling deeper long-term partnerships
with large-scale farm clients. In poultry feed the continued shift toward large-scale farming has driven
more diverse customer needs and a growing preference for contract and customized feed
manufacturing. We closely monitored client formulation habits and developed targeted market
segmentation strategies in response. These efforts enabled us to optimize technical support lower
operating costs ensure product integrity and quality consistency and steadily expand our bulk feed
delivery capacity to meet evolving customer expectations. In ruminant feed we took a research-led
approach carrying out deep market analysis and competitive benchmarking to support continuous
targeted improvements to our product range. At the same time we strengthened internal systems by
improving incentive design refining performance and compensation structures and tightening
recruitment and training standards. These efforts were key to building a professional high-caliber field
team capable of supporting customers through tough market conditions.
2. Broiler integration business
In 2024 China’s white-feather broiler industry further expanded its production capacity from an already
elevated base. However subdued macroeconomic conditions significantly constrained demand in mass
foodservice channels—the primary consumption scenario for white broilers. As a result the
10 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
incremental capacity was not efficiently absorbed placing sustained pressure on profitability across the
value chain. Mid- and downstream operators were hit the hardest: the commercial broiler farming
segment recorded substantial operating losses due to overcapacity the slaughtering and processing
segment operated at a slight loss and modest profitability was limited to upstream breeding
operations.A. Balancing volume and profit to steadily expand market share
During the reporting period we adhered to annual production plan maintaining disciplined output
scheduling despite a challenging industry environment. By accelerating turnover and balancing volume
with profitability we remained committed to maintaining cost leadership as a top priority while steadily
increasing our market share. On the breeder side in response to growing demand from the commercial
broiler farming segment we moderately expanded our breeding stock optimized stock introduction
and hatching schedules and progressively phased out outdated housing facilities. Existing breeder
farms and hatcheries were ramped up to reach full utilization as quickly as possible. In terms of farming
we continued to prioritize the development and retention of mid-level management talent with a
long-term focus on establishing a stable high-quality supply chain for live broilers to ensure consistent
volume and quality of broiler deliveries to the slaughtering and processing segment. Commercial broiler
farming capacity expanded steadily in line with downstream processing growth. In terms of
slaughtering and processing we leveraged our industry-leading operational efficiency and profitability
to support sustained growth in production and sales. Capacity utilization across the slaughtering and
processing segment remained consistently high. A new plant commissioned last year ramped up rapidly
and reached single-month profitability by June. During the reporting period our holding and associated
companies slaughtered approximately 920 million broilers representing a year-on-year increase of 14%.Total sales of broiler products reached 2.43 million tons up 15% from the previous year.B. Strengthening internal capabilities to enhance profitability
During the reporting period profit divergence within the white-feather broiler industry continued to
widen primarily due to varying levels of cost management capability among industry participants. In
response to intensifying market competition we reinforced our operational management and
implemented rigorous quality control measures aiming to strengthen competitive advantages and
drive sustained improvements in profitability. At the breeder level amid a general decline in breeder
stock quality across the industry we placed greater emphasis on genetic integrity. We maintained
long-term strategic partnerships with leading breeding suppliers and continued to refine our chick
source purification protocols and biosecurity systems to ensure the quality of day-old chicks. In farming
operations we continued to enhance management systems and upgrade automation with the goal of
developing modern large-scale white-feather broiler farms. During the year we further optimized feed
formulations refined feeding strategies and dynamically adjusted the compensation policies for
contract farms. As a result commercial broiler farming costs declined significantly year-on-year
11 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
accompanied by a marked improvement in overall production performance. In slaughtering and
processing operations we maintained commitment to a high-quality strategy. We rigorously enforced
standard operating procedures in the cut-up and deboning process and continuously enhanced
operator proficiency to deliver consistent product quality earning long-standing recognition in the
market. Meanwhile our market development capabilities continued to improve with an increasing
proportion of sales generated through high-value channels. This supported ongoing gains in product
premiums inventory turnover and overall business performance.
3. Swine farming business
After more than a year of industry-wide capacity reduction the swine sector entered 2024 with
improved fundamentals and more stable profitability. Capitalizing on this favorable backdrop we
accelerated the production scheduling optimized sales structure and strengthened on-farm
management to drive further improvements in operational performance. Supported by higher hog
prices and lower unit costs our swine farming business became profitable on a monthly basis starting
in March. Core operational capabilities improved significantly throughout the year. During the reporting
period we sold a total of 1.40 million hogs including 1.21 million finishers 160000 piglets and 30000
breeding pigs.A. Managing production rhythm and optimizing sales structure
In swine farming operations we adopted a development strategy focused on controlling production
scale and optimizing herd structure. Subsidiaries within the segment applied rational planning and
prudent management practices to keep total farming volume within a reasonable range. From 2021 to
2023 we took decisive action to phase out low-efficiency capacity and adopted a prudent approach to
capital expenditure enabling our swine farming business to navigate a prolonged industry downturn
with resilience. During this period we achieved steady improvements in asset quality operational
efficiency and production performance. In the first half of 2024 as supply and demand conditions in
China’s hog market gradually improved we moderately increased our sow inventory and actively
procured low-cost piglets ahead of the market upturn. In the third quarter hog prices rose sharply
reaching their annual peak and generating strong profitability. In response we significantly slowed
piglet procurement and moderately reduced sow inventory to manage downside risk in the event of
price corrections. In the fourth quarter hog prices declined amid increasing seasonal disease pressure.We responded by shortening the fattening cycle accelerating turnover and culling underperforming
sows in order to safeguard biosecurity. Overall during the favorable market cycle of 2024 we
maintained strategic discipline and made rational long-term-oriented decisions. Our swine farming
team continued to mature demonstrating stronger capabilities in market response and operational
execution.B. Strengthening management and building core operational capabilities
During the reporting period we identified the enhancement of core capabilities in our breeding pig
12 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
operations as a strategic priority. We conducted a systematic review across key areas including farm
site selection equipment specifications operational workflows production models genetic
management and biosecurity with the aim of addressing structural gaps and building core business
capabilities as soon as possible. From a management perspective our swine segment continued to
implement a process-based performance management practice. Monthly business review meetings
were held at the Group regional and subsidiary levels to identify farm-level issues through a
benchmarking approach defined by learning from external best practices and replicating internal
successes. Site-specific task lists were developed and progress was closely tracked with corrective
actions rigorously executed. In terms of talent development our swine segment accelerated the
recruitment of young technical and managerial talent while intensifying training for front-line and
mid-level farm managers. Through structured on-the-job development targeted mentoring and
hands-on guidance junior farm managers were supported in developing practical leadership
capabilities. In parallel regular talent reviews and enhanced performance assessments enabled
dynamic team optimization based on merit. These efforts were reinforced by a data-driven incentive
and compensation scheme which significantly strengthened initiative and accountability across farm
management teams.II. Industry Overview of the Company during the Reporting Period
1. Feed industry
In 2024 while China’s domestic economy showed signs of a gradual recovery consumer confidence in
meat products remained subdued. Prices of animal proteins—particularly beef and poultry—fell sharply
while pork consumption registered only modest growth. As a result the upstream feed industry
continued to face mounting pressure on profitability.On the supply side China’s total industrial feed output reached 315.03 million tons in 2024 marking a
2.1% decline compared to the previous year. Among the main feed categories swine feed production
totaled 143.91 million tons a year-on-year decrease of 3.9%; layer feed reached 32.36 million tons
down 1.2%; broiler feed increased to 97.54 million tons up 2.6%; ruminant feed declined sharply to
14.49 million tons a drop of 13.3% and aquatic feed stood at 22.62 million tons down 3.5% from a
year earlier. In terms of market concentration 34 feed enterprise groups recorded annual production
exceeding one million tons collectively accounting for 55.0% of the total national feed output. Of these
seven groups produced more than 10 million tons annually. In addition eleven individual production
facilities reported annual output above 500000 tons with the largest single plant reaching 1.331
million tons. In terms of sales model the total national volume of bulk feed reached 130.502 million
tons in 2024 representing a year-on-year increase of 10.7%. Bulk feed accounted for 49.2% of total
compound feed output up 5.5 percentage points from the previous year.In terms of demand within the swine feed segment hog production capacity began to recover from a
low base with the pace of recovery faster in the south than in the north. Despite this swine feed
13 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
demand declined year-on-year driven by the accelerated exit of small-scale backyard farms. This
structural shift increased the dominance of large-scale vertically integrated operations shrinking the
addressable market for commercial feed and intensifying competition in an already saturated landscape.In the poultry feed segment national layer inventories saw modest growth although a downward trend
persisted in Northeast China. Broiler production continued to rise from an already elevated level
however the feed-to-meat ratio declined significantly and as a result overall demand for poultry feed
did not see any notable increase. As for ruminant feed persistently low milk prices and mounting
operational pressure on regional dairy processors coupled with sustained losses in beef cattle farming
led to a sharp decline in ruminant feed demand over the year. Overall except for pork prices for most
meat products remained at subdued levels and the recovery in consumer demand for animal protein
was broadly sluggish.Amid intensifying market competition some regional producers turned to price cuts to improve
capacity utilization. Confronted with domestic overcapacity and softening demand leading Chinese
feed companies have turned to overseas markets for growth. Notably Chinese feed producers have
been rapidly gaining market share in Southeast Asia highlighting a clear strategic pivot toward
international growth in response to domestic headwinds.Source: China Feed Industry Association Statistical Report; Boyar Intelligence Industry Analysis Report.
2. Broiler industry
In 2024 white-feather broiler prices remained subdued with profitability varying significantly across
segments of the value chain. Upstream breeding operations remained profitable while commercial
broiler farming incurred heavy losses and the slaughtering segment ran at a slight deficit.On the supply side the population of active grandparent stock increased as imports of breeding stock
gradually resumed and domestic breeding lines underwent accelerated renewal parent stock also
stabilized and began to recover. However widespread forced molting and delayed culling practices led
to a further decline in the reproductive performance of parent stock. Combined with disease pressures
these factors reduced the supply of commercial chicks in the second half of the year causing chick
prices to rise year-on-year. In commercial broiler farming live bird supply was relatively sufficient in the
first half of the year exerting continued downward pressure on prices. In the third quarter farms
reduced chick placements to avoid high temperatures tightening live bird supply. Meanwhile global
avian influenza developments briefly pushed prices higher before they retreated. In the fourth quarter
live bird supply rose sharply but stronger downstream pricing sentiment supported a modest price
rebound. For the full year China’s broiler slaughter volume rose by 1.8% while production of broiler
cuts increased by 2.3%. However white-feather broiler prices fell year-on-year and the farming
segment remained deeply unprofitable.On the demand side consumer demand for white-feather broilers recovered relatively slowly. Demand
from institutional catering channels—such as corporate cafeterias and factory meal services—remained
14 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
weak and product movement in the foodservice and food manufacturing sectors was sluggish.Household consumption accounted for only a small share. Overall market demand for chicken
remained subdued with narrowed product margins. Distributors were generally reluctant to place new
orders which shifted inventory pressure upstream to slaughterhouses. This led to slower product
circulation a decline in slaughterhouse operating rates and continued downward pressure on selling
prices. Although pork prices rose sharply and substitution-driven demand for chicken improved it
remained insufficient to absorb the surplus broiler supply. Broiler cut prices trended downward through
the first half of the year rebounded briefly in Q3 and softened again in Q4. Although producers
increasingly resisted further price declines toward the year-end these efforts failed to meaningfully lift
the market. The annual average price settled at RMB 9450 per ton marking a 12.17% decline
year-on-year. The slaughtering segment remained broadly unprofitable with profitability varying
significantly across enterprises—reflecting divergent cost structures and management capabilities.In summary China’s white-feather broiler market in 2024 was marked by ample supply and weak
demand. Prices remained subdued throughout the year while performance disparities widened—both
across segments of the value chain and among players within the same segment.Source: Boyar Intelligence Industry Analysis Report.
3. Swine farming industry
In 2024 China’s swine farming sector began to recover with prices following a rise-then-fall pattern.Amid elevated average hog prices and a sharp drop in feed costs producers recorded their strongest
profitability in recent years.On the supply side capacity reductions throughout 2023 coupled with widespread disease outbreaks
in northern China during Q4 led to substantial losses in sow inventories and constrained restocking
efforts. By early 2024 the market had shifted toward a tighter supply environment. As piglet and hog
prices climbed in the first half of the year farming profitability improved markedly prompting breeding
sow inventories to bottom out and rebound from May onward. Boosted by opportunistic secondary
fattening activity stronger market sentiment and expectations of a supply gap hog prices peaked in Q3.However as sow inventories continued to recover and the supply gap narrowed hog prices came under
further pressure from a surge of secondary fattening hogs reaching slaughter weight and began
trending lower in Q4. For the full year China’s total hog slaughter volume declined by 3.3% year-on-year
pork production fell by 1.5% and the average hog price recorded a year-on-year increase.On the demand side pork consumption remained subdued constrained by slower income growth
intensifying competition from alternative proteins and continued destocking of frozen inventories.While foodservice demand showed a mild recovery overall pork consumption was still driven primarily
by households. In contrast outdoor catering consumption has increasingly shifted toward alternatives
such as chicken beef and lamb. With substitute meat prices falling and hog prices rising pork lost price
competitiveness—further weighing on demand. At the same time sustained losses in the slaughtering
15 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
segment elevated procurement costs and high frozen inventory levels exacerbated financial strain on
processors driving slaughter activity to multi-period lows. Overall demand remained soft throughout
2024 and the sharp price rally in the second half ultimately lacked downstream support triggering a
market correction. Due to a sharp drop in feed ingredient prices production costs declined significantly
making 2024 the most profitable year for hog farming in the past three years. However large-scale
producers remained cautious about expanding capacity placing greater emphasis on cost control and
operational efficiency. As price expectations adjusted more rapidly and market corrections became
more frequent hog price volatility narrowed making cost management an increasingly critical lever for
sustaining margins.In addition following the failure to contain African Swine Fever outbreaks in northern China a
structural shift has begun to take shape: sows are increasingly relocated to southern regions while
piglets are sent northward for finishing. The scale and specialization of secondary fattening operations
have expanded rapidly. Looking ahead China’s hog industry is expected to accelerate its transition
toward larger-scale more specialized and increasingly integrated production systems.Source: The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of China the National Bureau of Statistics and Boyar Intelligence

management team; a strategy of disciplined planning and steady growth; a mature and well-developed
industrial footprint; a systematic scientific and continuously innovative R&D system; a broadening and
deepening brand influence; and a cohesive empowering corporate culture that aligns and drives the
organization forward. Together these strengths form the foundation of Wellhope’s long-term
competitiveness and sustainable development.
1. A highly capable loyal and entrepreneurial management team
Talent is Wellhope’s most valuable asset and the cornerstone of its long-term competitiveness. The
Company’s management team consists of multiple tiers of internal shareholders highly educated
experienced professionals with deep industry expertise and strong strategic vision. Equally important
they share a deep alignment with Wellhope’s core values and corporate culture. Most of the Company’s
middle and senior managers have advanced through structured internal development and promotion
pathways supported by a comprehensive incentive system. They consistently demonstrate strong
ownership accountability and long-term commitment to the organization. Over the past three decades
the management team has exhibited exceptional stability. Turnover at the general manager’s level and

that stands the test of time.
21 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
This philosophy is reflected in four key areas:
A. Prudent expansion into new business areas: Wellhope began with premix production and has grown
into one of China’s top 10 commercial feed producers through years of focused investment in the feed
industry. In 2008 following careful evaluation the Company entered the broiler integration sector.After 17 years of dedicated development Wellhope’s holding and associated companies now rank 7th
globally in broiler processing volume with management and technical capabilities rank among the best
domestically and internationally. In 2018 to capture growth opportunities and mitigate sector-specific
risks the Company made a strategic entry into the swine farming business. Through a combination of
wholly owned projects and strategic partnerships Wellhope has rapidly developed its core capabilities
in this segment. From 2023 to 2025 the Company will continue to strengthen its two strategic core
businesses—feed and broiler integration—while accelerating two strategic growth areas: swine farming
and food processing. Wellhope aims to gradually establish regional food brands and become a leading
enterprise setting benchmarks in safety quality cost efficiency and operational excellence across the
agriculture livestock and food industries.B. A forward-looking integrated business model: Wellhope has developed a resilient and synergistic
value chain that spans raw material trading feed production breeding farming animal health products
slaughtering and further food processing. This vertically integrated model ensures strong connectivity
across segments reduces intermediaries lowers transaction risks cushions against market volatility
expands profit margins and enhances food safety. In an increasingly complex economic and industry
environment this model offers a robust and future-ready framework for modern agribusiness
development.C. Deliberated and phased market expansion: Despite its strong performance in feed and broiler
integration in Northeast China Wellhope has never pursued rapid nationwide expansion. Instead the
Company follows a research-driven disciplined approach—gradually extending its footprint into
Northwest North Central China the Shandong region and Eastern regions. In new markets Wellhope
emphasizes asset-light expansion and remains focused on operational efficiency and investment
returns.D. Rigorous financial risk management: Wellhope places great importance on financial prudence and
internal control. Since its IPO the Company has continuously improved its risk management framework
and corporate governance practices. It operates a vertically managed centralized financial system
covering financing credit capital allocation and guarantee approvals. In alignment with
macroeconomic conditions industry trends and its own business performance Wellhope carefully
controls leverage and financing costs. As of the end of the reporting period the Company’s
asset-liability ratio remained at a sound level of 49.09%.
3. A mature and highly developed industrial footprint
Wellhope’s industrial footprint reflects both strategic geographic positioning and a continuously
22 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
optimized business structure. These strengths serve as key enablers of efficiency cost control and
long-term competitiveness.A. Strategic geographic positioning: Headquartered in Shenyang Liaoning Province Wellhope maintains
a strong operational presence across northern China with a particular focus on the northeastern region.Designated by national policy as a key growth area for livestock production Northeast China offers
abundant raw materials a favorable climate low stocking density and relatively low labor
costs—making it highly conducive to the development of agriculture and animal husbandry. The region
is also China’s largest grain-producing base particularly for corn and rice with advantages in both
quality and volume. Its well-developed grain processing sector provides a wide range of cost-effective
feed ingredients and by-products with efficient logistics networks. Since the introduction of national
rice auction mechanisms the Northeast has gained unique cost advantages in supply. For example the
inclusion of brown rice in feed formulations has helped mitigate the impact of rising corn prices on
overall feed costs. Wellhope’s broiler operations are primarily located in Liaoning Jilin Henan Hebei
and Shandong—regions collectively representing over 75% of China’s total broiler production. These
areas not only offer a strong foundation for poultry farming but also feature mature downstream
market infrastructure. In both poultry and swine operations Wellhope adopts a regional cluster-based
development model: concentrating resources in key industrial zones building localized scale and
enhancing operational efficiency while reducing logistics costs.In parallel the Company is actively expanding into international markets with significant potential for
livestock development. It has established feed production facilities in countries such as the Philippines
Indonesia and Nepal laying a foundation for long-term global growth.B. Continuously optimized business structure: Wellhope’s development strategy is rooted in agriculture
and animal husbandry and guided by a dual approach of horizontal diversification and vertical
integration. This model continues to strengthen the Company’s risk resilience and capacity for
sustainable profitability. Horizontally Wellhope is scaling up its feed business while accelerating the
growth of its broiler segment with the ambition to achieve both domestic and global leadership. At the
same time the Company is steadily strengthening its hog farming operations to achieve regional
leadership in selected markets. Vertically the Company has built a robust fully integrated value chain
covering raw material trading feed production animal farming slaughtering and further processing.This integrated model reflects a long-term strategic direction for China’s agri-livestock and food industry.Looking ahead Wellhope will continue to strengthen coordination across all segments of the
chain—deepening synergies expanding into food processing and accelerating the development of a
closed-loop end-to-end supply chain. These efforts are further supported by the ongoing
standardization and optimization of internal division of labor and cross-segment collaboration ensuring
long-term cohesion scalability and operational excellence.

horizontal diversification and vertical integration strategy its market share and reputation have grown
across a wide range of sectors including raw material trading animal health breeding farming fresh
meat and ready-to-eat products. To protect the core value of the Wellhope brand and ensure
consistency across business lines the Company has adopted a disciplined approach to brand extension.Rather than applying the master brand indiscriminately Wellhope builds vertical brand equity in
targeted sectors where business maturity product quality and long-term value can be fully supported.This strategy not only enhances brand influence within the industry but also increases the added value
of individual business units.
6. A cohesive and empowering corporate culture that aligns and drives the organization forward
Over the past 30 years Wellhope has cultivated a corporate culture that emphasizes shared purpose
top-down alignment and collective empowerment. Its core values—integrity responsibility and mutual
success—along with an operational culture centered on innovation efficiency and self-discipline are
deeply embedded in the organization. These values shape behavior and are reflected in every aspect of
the business—from talent selection and strategy development to daily decision-making and
management execution.In 2024 cultural development remained closely aligned with business priorities supporting the
development of large-scale farms in the feed business while accelerating cultural integration in the
swine and broiler operations. One key initiative was the company-wide Innovation & Efficiency
Competition focused on reducing costs and improving performance. A record 98 projects were
submitted across four categories with 31 reaching the finals. Employees were encouraged to
contribute practical ideas from their daily work transforming values into action and innovation into
habit. In September 2023 the Company launched a group-wide learning initiative based on The Ten
Precepts of Taiichi Ohno. Business units and functional teams studied discussed and applied lean
thinking in their operations. In June 2024 a final review and evaluation event was held to assess results
and recognize progress in cost control and performance improvement. Also in 2024 Wellhope hosted
three types of employee skill competitions covering broiler processing feed pelleting and hog fattening
to engage front-line teams and recognize high-performing individuals. The Group also organized the
“Wellhope Cup” basketball tournament to promote teamwork perseverance and pride among

VI. Discussion and Analysis on the Company’s Future Development
1. Industry outlook
Please refer to Section III “Management Discussion and Analysis” subsection 2 “Industry Overview” for
relevant details.
2. Development strategy of the Company
The Company has adopted a centralized group-driven management model and remains firmly
committed to strengthening its two core strategic businesses—feed and broiler. It will also promote the
high-quality development of its two emerging strategic businesses—swine and food—while
progressively building regional food brands. From 2025 to 2027 the Company aims to position itself as
a leading enterprise in agriculture livestock and food industries with industry-leading performance in
safety quality cost control and operational efficiency.
3. Business plan for 2025
The year 2024 witnessed a rapid rollout and accelerated implementation of macroeconomic policies.Looking ahead to 2025 as policy dividends continue to materialize the domestic economy is expected
to show marginal improvements with consumer demand gradually recovering amid ongoing volatility.In this macro environment the Company will remain committed to its core values of innovation
efficiency and self-discipline. It will stay focused on its principal businesses enhance core operational
capabilities and strengthen its resilience across cycles—aiming to deliver steady performance amid a
gradual structurally supported recovery while generating sustained value for shareholders.A. Feed business
The feed business has consistently remained the Company’s core line of business. In 2025 the
Company will further reinforce the strategic positioning of this segment and steadily advance three key
transformation initiatives: (1)Upgrading the overall competitiveness of the feed segment by
transitioning from a traditional advantage in concentrated feed to a stronger focus on complete feed
and premix products; (2) Building integrated service capabilities by maintaining the strength of the
Company’s distributor network while actively increasing the share of large-scale farming
clients—shifting from a single-channel advantage to a dual-focus model that balances both distribution
networks and large-scale farming clients; (3) Focusing resources on core operations by progressively
establishing a group-wide management model characterized by centralized guidance from
headquarters coordinated collaboration across business units and efficient resource sharing. Centered
around these three strategic directions the Company will further enhance its execution efficiency
streamline organizational structure and strengthen team capabilities. Efforts will be made to
implement dedicated business lines assign specialized personnel and uphold professional operating
standards with a continued focus on strengthening the deployment of key talent. For 2025 the
Company targets a year-on-year increase of over 10% in feed sales volume.
36 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
B. Broiler integration business
In 2025 the Company will continue to be guided by seven core operational principles: ensuring safety
controlling development pace optimizing structure strengthening the business ecosystem reducing
costs improving efficiency and enhancing profitability. Building on these principles the Company will
continue to strengthen its internal operational capabilities advance its industrial deployment in a
phased and orderly manner and further optimize the structure of its integrated supply chain. On the
breeding side the Company will accelerate the expansion of its breeding stock increase the proportion
of self-supplied chicks continue to optimize key production indicators and enhance chick quality. These
efforts aim to strengthen the overall management and supply capacity of the Company’s breeder
operations. On the farming side the Company will temporarily pause the expansion of commercial
broiler production. At the same time it will moderately increase the proportion of externally sourced
broilers for slaughter. In parallel the Company will continue its efforts to reduce operational costs and
will accelerate the transition toward automation sustainable farming practices and efficient waste
resource utilization. On the slaughtering side the Company will maintain stable development based on
existing capacity. It will adopt a measured and incremental approach to capacity expansion prioritize
maximizing utilization efficiency and aim to deliver the highest overall value through an optimized
product mix. For 2025 the Company’s holding and associated companies target a total white-feather
broiler slaughter volume of approximately 960 million.C. Swine farming business
In 2025 the Company will continue to adhere to a prudent investment strategy for its swine farming
business. Key initiatives will include maintaining a steady development pace exercising strict control
over capital expenditure and intensifying efforts to reduce production costs. In terms of breeding the
Company aims to maintain a stable sow population while improving genetic management to enhance
breeding quality. It will also implement phased upgrades to existing sow farms focusing on production
processes operating models and housing infrastructure. In terms of fattening the Company plans to
expand piglet procurement and hog finishing operations in a moderate manner based on market
conditions. It will also continue to develop its capabilities in sales execution piglet sourcing and market
forecasting. In parallel the Company will strengthen internal management by further implementing its
performance-based management system expanding its core talent pool and gradually establishing a
standardized digitalized and modular farming management system designed to be scalable and
replicable across farms. These efforts aim to enhance operational efficiency and systematically reduce
production costs throughout the entire farming process. Biosecurity will remain a top operational
priority. The Company will continue to refine its biosecurity framework with a strong focus on managing
major challenges such as African swine fever porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome and swine
diarrhea thereby ensuring the safe and stable operation of its farming assets. The Company's target for
2025 is a marketed volume of approximately 1.8 to 2.0 million hogs.

This business plan does not constitute a performance commitment to investors. Readers are advised to
exercise appropriate risk awareness.
4. Potential risks
A. Risks of fluctuations in raw material prices
Raw materials account for the majority of costs in the feed business. Fluctuations in output from key
production regions changes in import policies storage and subsidy programs exchange rate
movements logistics costs and other factors can all impact raw material prices—thereby affecting the
cost and gross margin of the Company’s feed operations. With the deepening internationalization of
agricultural trade in recent years raw material supply-demand dynamics and pricing are increasingly
influenced by both domestic and global spot and futures markets. As a result price trends have
become more volatile and complex making cost management significantly more challenging. In
addition evolving international political and economic conditions such as China-U.S. relations and the
Russia–Ukraine conflict have added further uncertainty to raw material procurement.Solutions
a. Wellhope has established strategic partnerships with leading domestic and international raw material
suppliers. It has also implemented a three-tier procurement model that combines centralized group
purchasing regional price-based bidding and local variety-specific sourcing ensuring clear role
definitions and procurement efficiency at each level.b. The Company integrates its raw material trading business with purchasing management. A
professional and experienced procurement team conducts targeted forward-looking research and
real-time market tracking. Through coordinated management of commodity categories and a
combination of spot and futures contracts Wellhope tactically lowers its overall purchase prices.c. The procurement team works closely with R&D production and sales teams. The R&D team develops
cost-effective alternatives to major raw materials; the production team continuously refines processes
and upgrades equipment; and the sales team supports purchasing strategy through wave-based volume
forecasting. Cross-departmental coordination information sharing and complementary strengths help
minimize the impact of raw material price fluctuations.d. Wellhope has established an information-sharing channel with Royal De Heus enabling timely
exchange of data on key raw materials and additives. The two parties have already launched joint
purchasing for vitamins amino acids and other ingredients—and plan to further expand the scope of
joint procurement to enhance overall bargaining power.B. Risks of fluctuations in livestock and poultry prices
Livestock and poultry production is a typically cyclical industry. Due to the lag in supply adjustments
prices tend to follow periodic fluctuations. Sharp price swings increase earnings volatility and
uncertainty for industry players.
38 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
Solutions
a. In terms of strategy: Wellhope closely monitors price movements across upstream and downstream
segments. Over the years the Company has continuously deepened its market research improved
forecasting of industry trends and maintained flexibility in business strategy. Its three core business
segments share resources and complement one another enabling coordinated and phased capacity
planning. These efforts help mitigate the strategic risk of price fluctuations across the livestock and
poultry value chain.b. In terms of business: Wellhope’s integrated broiler business spans multiple modules including
breeder farming hatching feed production commercial broiler farming slaughtering and further
processing of both prepared and cooked food. This fully integrated model enables pricing volatility at
different stages to partially offset one another thereby smoothing overall cyclicality at the industry
chain level.c. In terms of management: The Company continuously refines production standards innovates
operating models and enhances process efficiency across business lines. By improving key performance
indicators and increasing per capita productivity Wellhope lowers unit operating costs. This cost
advantage reduces downside risk during industry downturns and enhances profitability during upward
cycles.C. Risks of serious animal epidemic
Feed and livestock farming are the Company’s two core businesses. Animal disease outbreaks represent
one of the most significant risks to the farming industry. Once an epidemic occurs it can trigger
widespread consumer panic—leading to reduced demand lower production declining revenues and
rising costs. The feed business which primarily serves the downstream farming sector is directly
affected by the prosperity or downturn of the livestock industry. As unpredictable events major
epidemics can have a profound impact on the Company’s operations.Solutions
a. Wellhope places strong emphasis on regional and structural diversification which remains one of the
most effective ways to mitigate epidemic-related risks.b. Prioritizing prevention over treatment the Company has established biosecurity monitoring centers
across all farming regions. It continuously adjusts the frequency and scope of disease testing based on
seasonal geographic and epidemiological patterns striving to detect and contain potential outbreaks
before they occur.c. Speed is critical in minimizing the impact of an outbreak. Wellhope has implemented a dedicated
emergency command system for major epidemics to enable timely decision-making and response
thereby reducing potential losses.d. The Company consistently conducts post-incident reviews and research to enhance its disease
prevention capabilities. It strengthens safeguards across multiple dimensions including animal
39 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
nutrition veterinary services and farm management practices.e. In response to African Swine Fever Wellhope has developed a comprehensive prevention and control
system that spans from R&D through to on-farm implementation forming a robust defense across the
entire swine production chain.D. Risk of industry restructuring due to environmental policies
In recent years the Chinese government has introduced a series of environmental regulations—such as
the revised Environmental Protection Law the Environmental Protection Tax Law the Regulations on
Pollution Prevention and Control in Livestock and Poultry Farming and the Action Plan for Agricultural
and Rural Pollution Control. These policies reflect the state’s growing commitment to environmental
regulation in the livestock sector. Stricter environmental enforcement is becoming the industry
norm—an irreversible trend that all livestock enterprises must address.Solutions
Since its founding Wellhope has embedded the principle of saving resources and protecting the
environment into its corporate mission. The Company treats full legal compliance and implementation
of environmental standards as key evaluation criteria for management teams and subsidiaries.Environmental protection is viewed not only as a regulatory obligation but as a core corporate
responsibility.a. In terms of animal farming and slaughtering: In response to increasingly stringent environmental
requirements all production units have conducted comprehensive risk assessments to identify
potential environmental hazards. Each factory has developed contingency plans for emergency
environmental incidents based on its specific operational context and local government regulations
ensuring business continuity. For key pollutant discharge entities Wellhope has implemented robust
self-monitoring programs enabling timely detection and remediation of risks. The Company continues
to increase investment in environmental personnel and infrastructure to ensure full and sustained
compliance with national standards.b. In terms of feed processing: Wellhope rigorously complies with all national environmental standards
and has established comprehensive controls for pollutants generated during feed production including
air emissions noise wastewater and solid waste. Environmentally friendly raw materials and additives
are incorporated into feed formulations and the Company continues to invest in the development of
safe and eco-friendly diets to reduce emissions of heavy metals nitrogen and phosphorus.E. Risks of exchange-rate fluctuations
Wellhope’s international business started early and has developed rapidly making it increasingly
susceptible to exchange rate fluctuations in areas such as raw material procurement product exports
and overseas investment. The impacts are reflected in the following aspects: Firstly with the
globalization of the feed industry international sourcing of raw materials has become standard practice.As a result exchange rate risks are particularly evident for raw materials primarily sourced from abroad.
40 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
Secondly Wellhope’s broiler product export business continues to grow with customers across a wide
range of countries and regions. Settlements involving multiple currencies inevitably lead to exchange
rate fluctuations. Finally the Company’s overseas investments and operations are expanding and
cross-border capital flows and settlements are also exposed to currency volatility.Solutions
a. Wellhope closely monitors trends in the global foreign exchange market enhancing its awareness of
exchange rate risk and improving its capacity for market research and forecasting.b. The Company improves its bargaining power in foreign trade by strengthening product
competitiveness and mitigates exchange rate risk through mechanisms such as RMB settlement
contract clauses for value preservation and shared exchange risk provisions.c. Wellhope makes full use of a range of hedging instruments including forward contracts currency
swaps and option portfolios to manage foreign exchange exposures.d. In line with the principle of “matching currency with usage” the Company manages revenues and
liabilities by market to ensure alignment thereby reducing exchange rate risk through natural hedging.F. Risks of food safety
In recent years multiple food safety incidents in China have significantly undermined consumer
confidence. In response the government has continuously strengthened legislation on food safety and
traceability while increasing penalties for violations. A food safety incident resulting from poor quality
control could trigger widespread panic among consumers severely impact downstream demand and
cause substantial harm to both brand reputation and business performance.Solutions
Since its founding Wellhope has placed the highest priority on food and quality safety. The Company
adheres to a strict “Six Nevers” quality policy: never accept unqualified raw materials never use faulty
equipment never allow nonstandard operations never produce substandard products never ignore
dissatisfied customers and never tolerate inadequate service. A dedicated Food and Quality Safety
Management Committee has been established at the Group level with corresponding task groups
formed across all business divisions and subsidiaries. Responsibility is clearly assigned across all stages
to ensure sustained vigilance and accountability.a. In terms of feed business: Wellhope has established a three-tier quality management and testing
system at the headquarters region and subsidiary levels. It operates in full compliance with
international standards including ISO 9001 ISO 22000 and ISO/IEC 17025 while rigorously
implementing national regulations such as the Feed Quality and Safety Management Code and the
Veterinary Drug Production Quality Management Code. The Company maintains full-process quality
control and a traceability system. To further enhance testing capabilities it actively promotes
near-infrared technology to improve detection efficiency enable real-time data sharing and support
early warning mechanisms. Priority testing areas include heavy metals harmful microorganisms and
41 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
mycotoxins—providing critical assurance for feed safety.b. In terms of farming and slaughtering business: In farming operations the Company enforces strict
controls over drug use and residue management in both poultry and swine production. At the
slaughtering stage it continuously strengthens quality oversight strictly adhering to inspection
quarantine and drug residue testing protocols. From a business model perspective Wellhope’s
vertically integrated broiler chain includes breeder farming hatching feed production commercial
farming slaughtering and the further processing of prepared and cooked products. This integration
ensures a stable raw material supply and allows for stringent quality and safety controls throughout the
value chain. Through standardized management and process-based operations the Company integrates
biosecurity residue control and hygiene management to ensure end-to-end traceability of food safety.

2. Remuneration policy
Wellhope adheres to a human resources philosophy centered on performance-based compensation
meritocracy and fairness. The Company has established a comprehensive compensation and
performance incentive system covering key areas including salary policy appointment management
diversified incentives welfare protection and career development. This system strikes a balance
between fairness motivation and competitiveness linking individual compensation closely with both
organizational and personal performance. Total compensation is determined based on the Company’s
operating results and individual performance evaluations with the goal of continuously motivating
employees and achieving mutual growth.In 2024 the Company further strengthened its performance management practices. Key performance
indicators were established across business units multi-level ranking systems were introduced and
short-term incentives were awarded to the top 10% of high-performing teams. In the feed business
annual compensation was linked to business outcomes through a total compensation package model
reinforcing the connection between performance and pay. In the swine farming business performance-
and bonus-based pay models were piloted at the frontline level to directly tie employee income to
results. Tailored compensation structures were also implemented in the broiler and raw material
trading segments to reflect their specific operational characteristics. Meanwhile the Company
enhanced both internal and external benchmarking to ensure its compensation levels remain
competitive across industries and regions supporting talent attraction and retention. The Company
continued to improve its appointment and promotion processes by relying on a scientific talent
selection system to appoint high performers while demoting the bottom 10% based on performance.For consistently underperforming employees the Company conducted performance reviews and made
appropriate role adjustments to align capabilities with operational requirements. To further encourage
team performance the Company launched a commendation program for strategic business units with
recognition based on annual performance rankings. Through team-building initiatives and on-site
54 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
award ceremonies the Company fostered cross-departmental communication enhanced employees’
sense of recognition and achievement and supported their career development and personal growth.The Company provides employees with compensation and benefits that are competitive within both
the industry and the regions in which it operates. In accordance with relevant laws and regulations it
contributes to statutory social insurance and housing funds (five social insurances and one housing
fund) for employees. In addition the Company offers supplementary benefits such as commercial
insurance and annual health check-ups which also extend to employees’ families. To further enrich theemployee welfare system the Company has implemented various programs including the “Wings ofLove” initiative to promote internal resource sharing and enhance overall employee satisfaction.

launched to monitor and evaluate 21 improvement projects. As a result 9 high-impact initiatives were
formally recognized and promoted within the Company.C. Strengthening the talent pipeline and leadership readiness: Building upon its established talent
development framework the Company further refined and implemented a multi-tiered
precision-targeted onboarding program for new hires accelerating integration role alignment and
early-stage development. Key efforts included training externally recruited supervisors and developing

consideration amounting to RMB 287387710.93. The aggregate amount of cash returned to

Detailed description:
The Company remains strongly committed to advancing low-carbon operations by addressing emissions
at their source and implementing a series of effective reduction strategies. These efforts have produced
measurable results. In the area of energy use the Company has transitioned to cleaner energy sources
by replacing traditional fuel-fired boilers with natural gas or biomass alternatives. This shift has
significantly reduced carbon emissions from combustion and reflects the Company’s strong
environmental responsibility setting a benchmark for clean energy adoption. In its broiler operations
the Company has adopted refrigeration heat recovery systems capturing waste heat from refrigeration
compressors and oil-based systems and transferring it via high-efficiency heat exchangers to support
workshop heating. This has partially offset boiler fuel consumption and reduced emissions at the
source. The Company has also upgraded its wastewater treatment aeration systems replacing Roots
blowers with air suspension blowers. This upgrade has led to a 30% reduction in electricity
consumption further curbing indirect emissions from power generation. In its swine operations the
Company has implemented energy-efficient housing designs. During colder months heat recovery
systems are used to preheat incoming ventilation air significantly decreasing natural gas consumption
for heating. Environmental control systems have also been introduced to more precisely regulate fan
operations reducing energy waste from continuous use and further lowering electricity-related

for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company’s
2024 Annual Report but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.In connection with our audit of the financial statements our responsibility is to read the other
information and in doing so consider whether it is materially inconsistent with the financial
statements or with the knowledge we obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated.If based on the work we have performed we conclude that there is a material misstatement of the
other information we are required to report that fact. We have no such matters to report.
5. Responsibilities of the Management and Those Charged with Governance for Financial Statements
The management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair
view in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises (ASBE) and for designing
implementing and maintaining such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable
the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement whether due to fraud
or error.In preparing the financial statements management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern disclosing as applicable matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to
cease operations or has no realistic alternative but to do so.Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting
process.
6. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole
are free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error and to issue an auditor’s report
that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but it is not a guarantee
that an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards will always detect a material
97 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
misstatement when it exists.Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if individually or in the
aggregate they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on
the basis of these financial statements.As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards we exercise professional judgment and
maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
A. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements whether due to
fraud or error; design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks; and obtain audit
evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a
material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error as fraud may
involve collusion forgery intentional omissions misrepresentations or the override of internal control.B. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit to design appropriate audit
procedures but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s
internal control.C. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.D. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and
based on the audit evidence obtained whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If
we conclude that material uncertainty exists we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report
to the related disclosures in the financial statements or if such disclosures are inadequate to modify
our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s
report. However future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going
concern.E. Evaluate the overall presentation structure and content of the financial statements including the
disclosures and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a
manner that achieves fair presentation.F. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are
responsible for the direction supervision and performance of the Company audit and remain solely
responsible for our audit opinion.We communicate with those charged with governance regarding among other matters the planned
scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any significant deficiencies in
internal control that we identify during our audit.We also provide them with a statement confirming our compliance with relevant ethical requirements
regarding independence and communicate all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be
98 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
thought to bear on our independence and where applicable the related safeguards.From the matters communicated with those charged with governance we determine those matters
that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements for the current period and
therefore are the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or
regulation precludes public disclosure or in extremely rare circumstances we conclude that a matter
should not be disclosed because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected
to outweigh the public interest benefits.RSM CHINA CPA LLP Certified Public Accountant (China): Huang Xiao

6.Accounting treatment of business combinations under and not under common control
(1) Business combination under common control
The assets and liabilities acquired by the Company in a business combination are measured at the
carrying amount in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party on the
acquisition date. In cases where the acquired company uses different accounting policies or periods
compared to the Company before the business combination the accounting policies and periods are
aligned based on the principle of materiality. Specifically the carrying amounts of the acquired assets
and liabilities are adjusted according to the Company’s accounting policies and periods. If there is a
difference between the carrying amount of the net assets acquired in the business combination and the
consideration paid the capital reserve (capital premium or capital stock premium) is adjusted first. If
the balance of the capital reserve (capital premium or capital stock premium) is insufficient it is then
sequentially adjusted against the surplus reserve and undistributed profit.For the accounting treatment of business combinations under common control achieved through step
117 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
transactions refer to Note V-7 (5).
(2) Business combination not under the common control
The identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired party in a business combination are measured at
their fair value on the acquisition date. In cases where the acquired party uses different accounting
policies or periods compared to the Company before the business combination the accounting policies
and periods are aligned based on the principle of materiality. Specifically the carrying amounts of the
acquired assets and liabilities are adjusted according to the Company’s accounting policies and periods.If the Company’s acquisition cost on the acquisition date exceeds the fair value of the identifiable assets
and liabilities acquired in the business combination the difference is recognized as goodwill. If the
acquisition cost is less than the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired the
acquisition cost and the fair value of the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities are reviewed. After
review if the acquisition cost is still less than the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities
acquired the difference is recognized in the current period’s consolidated profit or loss.For the accounting treatment of business combinations under different control achieved through step
transactions refer to Note V-7 (5).
(3) Treatment of transaction costs in a business combination
The audit legal services valuation consulting and other intermediary fees as well as other related
administrative expenses incurred for the purpose of a business combination are recognized as
expenses in the current period when incurred. Transaction costs related to equity securities or debt
securities issued as part of the merger consideration are included in the initial recognition amount of
the equity securities or debt securities.
7.Judgment of control and method of preparing the consolidated financial statements
(1) Judgment of control and determination of consolidation scope
Control refers to the Company’s power over the investee the variable returns it can obtain through
participation in the investee’s relevant activities and the ability to use its power over the investee to
affect the amount of returns. The definition of control includes three key elements: 1) The investor has
power over the investee. 2) The investor has rights to enjoy variable returns from its involvement with
the investee. 3) The investor has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of
returns. When the Company’s investment in the investee meets these three elements it indicates that
the Company has control over the investee.The scope of consolidation in the consolidated financial statements is determined based on control
and includes not only subsidiaries determined by voting rights (or similar rights) alone or in
combination with other arrangements but also structured entities determined by one or more
contractual arrangements.A subsidiary refers to an entity controlled by the Company (including businesses separable parts of an
investee and structured entities controlled by the Company). A structured entity refers to an entity
118 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
designed in such a way that voting rights or similar rights are not the deciding factor in determining its
controlling party (Note: sometimes also called a Special Purpose Entity or SPE).
(2) Method of preparing the consolidated financial statements
The Company prepares consolidated financial statements based on the financial statements of itself
and its subsidiaries and other relevant information.While preparing consolidated financial statements the Company treats the entire enterprise group as
an accounting entity and in accordance with the requirements for confirmation measurement and
presentation of relevant enterprise accounting standards and based on unified accounting policies and
periods reflects the overall financial position operating results and cash flow of the enterprise group.* Consolidate the assets liabilities owners’ equity revenue expenses and cash flows of the parent
company and its subsidiaries.* Offset the long-term equity investments of the parent company in its subsidiaries against the
portion of owners’ equity held by the parent company in the subsidiaries.* Offset the effects of internal transactions between the parent company and its subsidiaries as well
as between subsidiaries. If internal transactions indicate impairment losses of related assets the full
amount of the loss shall be recognized.* Adjust special transactions from the perspective of the enterprise group.
(3) Treatment of changes in subsidiaries during the Reporting Period
* Increase in subsidiary or business
A. Subsidiaries or businesses acquired in a business combination under common control
(a) When preparing the consolidated balance sheet adjust the opening balances of the consolidated
balance sheet and also adjust the relevant items of the comparative financial statements. It is treated
as if the combined reporting entity has existed since the point when the ultimate controlling party
started controlling.(b) When preparing the consolidated income statement include the revenue expenses and profits of
the acquired subsidiary or business from the beginning of the period to the end of the Reporting Period
in the consolidated income statement. Also adjust the relevant items of the comparative financial
statements treating the combined reporting entity as if it has existed since the point when the ultimate
controlling party started controlling.(c) When preparing the consolidated cash flow statement include the cash flows of the acquired
subsidiary or business from the beginning of the period to the end of the Reporting Period in the
consolidated cash flow statement. Also adjust the relevant items of the comparative financial
statements treating the combined reporting entity as if it has existed since the point when the ultimate
controlling party started controlling.B. Subsidiaries or businesses acquired in a business combination not under common control
(a) When preparing the consolidated balance sheet do not adjust the opening balances of the
119 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report

the acquired subsidiary or business from the acquisition date to the end of the Reporting Period in the
consolidated income statement.(c) When preparing the consolidated cash flow statement include the cash flows of the acquired
subsidiary or business from the acquisition date to the end of the Reporting Period in the consolidated
cash flow statement.* Disposal of subsidiary or business
A. When preparing the consolidated balance sheet do not adjust the opening balances of the
consolidated balance sheet.B. When preparing the consolidated income statement include the revenue expenses and profits of
the disposed subsidiary or business from the beginning of the period to the disposal date in the
consolidated income statement.C. When preparing the consolidated cash flow statement include the cash flows of the disposed
subsidiary or business from the beginning of the period to the disposal date in the consolidated cash
flow statement.
(4) Special considerations in consolidation eliminations
* The long-term equity investments held by subsidiaries in the parent company shall be treated as
treasury stock and deducted from equity. In the consolidated balance sheet they shall be presented
under the “Equity” item as “Less: treasury stock.”
Long-term equity investments held between subsidiaries shall be offset with the corresponding portion
of equity held in the subsidiary following the same elimination method as for the parent company’s
equity investments in its subsidiaries.* The “special reserve” and “general risk provision” items since they do not belong to paid-in capital
(or share capital) or capital reserves and differs from undistributed profit or undistributed profits shall
be restored to the portion attributable to the parent company’s shareholders after offsetting long-term
equity investments with the owners’ equity in subsidiaries.* If offsetting unrealized internal sales profits or losses results in temporary differences between the
book value of assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet and their tax bases deferred
income tax assets or liabilities shall be recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. Additionally
income tax expense shall be adjusted in the consolidated income statement excluding deferred taxes
related to transactions directly recorded in equity or related to business combinations.* Unrealized internal transaction profits or losses from the sale of assets by the parent to subsidiaries
shall be fully offset against “Net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company” in the
consolidated income statement. Unrealized internal transaction profits or losses from the sale of assetsby subsidiaries to the parent shall be allocated and offset between “Net profit attributable to
120 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Reportshareholders of the parent company” and “Profit or loss of minority interest” according to the parent
company’s shareholding in the subsidiary. Unrealized internal transaction profits or losses from the saleof assets between subsidiaries shall be allocated and offset between “Net profit attributable toshareholders of the parent company” and “Profit or loss of minority interest” based on the parent
company’s shareholding in the selling subsidiary.* If losses attributable to minority shareholders for the current period exceed their share of equity in
the subsidiary at the beginning of the period the excess should still be deducted from minority
shareholders’ equity.
(5) Accounting for special transactions
* Purchase of minority shareholder equity
When the Company purchases the minority shareholder equity in its subsidiary the investment cost of
the new long-term equity investment acquired from the purchase of minority equity shall be measured
at the fair value of the consideration paid in the individual financial statements. In the consolidated
financial statements the difference between the new long-term equity investment acquired through
the purchase of minority equity and the share of the subsidiary’s net assets (continuously calculated
from the purchase date or consolidation date) corresponding to the new shareholding ratio shall be
adjusted to capital reserves (capital premium or capital stock premium). If capital reserves are
insufficient it shall be adjusted sequentially to surplus reserves and undistributed profit.* Step-by-step acquisition of control over a subsidiary
A. Business combination under common control through multiple transactions
On the consolidation date in the individual financial statements the initial investment cost of the
long-term equity investment shall be determined based on the share of the subsidiary’s net assets in
the final controlling entity’s consolidated financial statements. The difference between the initial
investment cost and the sum of the book value of the equity investment prior to the consolidation and
the newly paid consideration on the consolidation date shall be adjusted to capital reserves (capital
premium or capital stock premium). If capital reserves are insufficient it shall be adjusted sequentially
to surplus reserves and undistributed profit.In the consolidated financial statements the assets and liabilities of the acquired entity shall be
measured at the book value on the consolidation date except for adjustments made due to differences
in accounting policies and periods. The difference between the sum of the book value of the
pre-acquisition investment and the book value of the new consideration paid on the consolidation date
and the book value of the net assets acquired shall be adjusted to capital reserves (capital stock
premium /capital premium). If capital reserves are insufficient it shall be adjusted to undistributed
profit.For equity investments held by the parent company before the acquisition of control all relevant profits
and losses other comprehensive income and other changes in equity that have been recognized from
121 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
the date the parent and the subsidiary were under common control until the consolidation date shall
be adjusted in the opening undistributed profit for the comparative period or profits and losses for the
current period.B. Business combination not under common control through multiple transactions
On the consolidation date in the individual financial statements the initial investment cost of the
long-term equity investment shall be the sum of the book value of the pre-existing equity investment
and the new investment cost on the consolidation date.In the consolidated financial statements for the equity held in the acquiree before the purchase date it
shall be remeasured at the fair value on the purchase date. If the equity held before the purchase date
is designated as a financial asset measured at fair value with changes recorded in other comprehensive
income the difference between the fair value and its book value shall be recorded in undistributed
profit and the cumulative fair value changes previously recognized in other comprehensive income
shall be transferred to undistributed profit. If the equity held before the purchase date is classified as a
financial asset measured at fair value through profit or loss or as a long-term equity investment
accounted for using the equity method the difference between the fair value and its book value shall
be recorded as investment income for the current period. If the equity held before the purchase date
involves other comprehensive income under the equity method as well as other changes in owners’
equity under the equity method excluding net profit or loss other comprehensive income and profit
distribution the related other comprehensive income shall be accounted for in the same manner as the
direct disposal of related assets or liabilities by the investee and the related other owners’ equity
changes shall be transferred to investment income for the current period on the purchase date.* Disposal of long-term equity investment in a subsidiary without losing control
When the parent company disposes of part of its equity investment in a subsidiary without losing
control in the consolidated financial statements the difference between the disposal consideration
and the subsidiary’s net asset portion from the purchase date or consolidation date shall be adjusted
to capital reserves (capital premium or capital stock premium). If capital reserves are insufficient it
shall be adjusted sequentially to undistributed profit.* Disposal of long-term equity investment in a subsidiary and loss of control
A. Disposal in a single transaction
If the parent company disposes of part of its equity investment and loses control over the investee in
the preparation of consolidated financial statements the remaining equity shall be remeasured at its
fair value on the date of loss of control. The difference between the disposal consideration and the fair
value of the remaining equity minus the net asset portion and goodwill from the original subsidiary
shall be recognized as investment income in the period of losing control.Other comprehensive income related to the original subsidiary’s equity investment shall be accounted
for based on the same treatment as if the related assets or liabilities of the original subsidiary were
122 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
directly disposed of. Other changes in equity under the equity method related to the original subsidiary
shall be transferred to current profit and loss upon losing control.B. Step-by-step disposal in multiple transactions
In the consolidated financial statements it should first be determined whether the step-by-step
transaction constitutes a package transaction.If it is not considered a package transaction in the individual financial statements for each transaction
before losing control of the subsidiary the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment
corresponding to the disposed equity is derecognized and the difference between the consideration
received and the carrying amount of the disposed long-term equity investment is recognized in current
period investment income; In the consolidated financial statements it shall be handled according to the
relevant rules for the disposal of long-term equity investment in a subsidiary without losing control.If the step-by-step transaction is a package transaction all transactions shall be treated as one
transaction involving the disposal of a subsidiary and the loss of control. In the individual financial
statements the difference between the disposal price of each transaction before losing control and the
carrying amount of the long-term equity investment corresponding to the disposed equity is first
recognized in other comprehensive income which will be transferred to profit and loss when control is
lost. In the consolidated financial statements for each transaction before losing control the difference
between the disposal price and the portion of the subsidiary’s net assets shall be recognized as other
comprehensive income which will be transferred to profit and loss when control is lost.Multiple transactions are generally treated as a package transaction if any of the following terms
conditions and economic impacts are met:
(a) The transactions are entered into simultaneously or with consideration of each other’s impact.(b) The transactions as a whole are aimed at achieving a complete business result.(c) The occurrence of one transaction depends on the occurrence of at least one other transaction.(d) A single transaction would not be economically feasible but it becomes economically viable when
considered together with other transactions.* Dilution of the parent company’s ownership in subsidiary due to capital increase by minority
shareholders
When other shareholders (minority shareholders) of the subsidiaries increase capital in the subsidiary
thereby diluting the parent company’s equity interest in the subsidiary in the consolidated financial
statements the difference between this share (the share of the subsidiary’s book net assets before the
capital increase calculated based on the parent company’s pre-increase shareholding ratio) and the
share of the subsidiary’s book net assets after the capital increase (calculated based on the parent
company’s post-increase shareholding ratio) is adjusted to capital reserves (capital premium or capital
stock premium). If capital reserves are insufficient it shall be adjusted to undistributed profit.
123 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
8.Classification of Joint Arrangements and Accounting for Joint Operation
A joint arrangement refers to an arrangement that is jointly controlled by two or more participants. The
Company classifies its joint arrangements as either joint operations or joint ventures.
(1) Joint operations
A joint operation refers to a joint arrangement in which the Company enjoys the related assets and
assumes the related liabilities of the arrangement.The Company recognizes the following items related to the share of interests in joint operations and
makes accounting treatment according to the relevant ASBE:
* Recognizes the assets held separately and the assets held jointly according to its proportion;
* Recognizes the liabilities assumed separately and the liabilities assumed jointly according to its
proportion;
* Recognizes the income from the sales of its share in the outputs of joint operation;
* Recognizes the income from the sales of the outputs of joint operation according to its proportion;
* Recognizes the expenses incurred separately and recognizes the expenses incurred jointly
according to its proportion.
(2) Joint ventures
A joint venture refers to a joint arrangement in which the Company only has rights to the net assets of
the arrangement.The Company accounts for its investment in the joint venture in accordance with the equity method of
accounting for long-term equity investments.
9.Recognition standard of cash and cash equivalents
Cash refers to the Company’s on-hand cash and deposits that can be used for payment at any time.Cash equivalents refer to investments that are of short duration (generally those due within three
months from the date of purchase) highly liquid easily convertible into known amounts of cash and
with minimal risk of value fluctuation.
10.Foreign currency transactions and foreign currency statement translation
(1) Method for determining the exchange rate for foreign currency transactions
The Company uses the spot exchange rate on the transaction date or an exchange rate approximating
the spot rate on the transaction date determined by a reasonable method in the system to convert
foreign currency transactions into the functional currency at initial recognition.
(2) Translation method for foreign currency monetary items at the balance sheet date
At the balance sheet date foreign currency monetary items are translated using the spot exchange rate
at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from the difference between the spot exchange
rate at the balance sheet date and the spot exchange rate at the time of initial recognition or the
previous balance sheet date are recognized in the current profit or loss. For foreign currency
non-monetary items measured at historical cost the spot exchange rate at the transaction date is still
124 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
used for translation. For inventories measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value if the
inventory is purchased in foreign currency and the net realizable value of the inventory at the balance
sheet date is reflected in foreign currency the net realizable value is first translated into the functional
currency at the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date and then compared with the cost of the
inventory reflected in the functional currency to determine the ending value of the inventory. For
foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value the spot exchange rate at the fair value
determination date is used for translation. For financial assets measured at fair value through profit or
loss the difference between the translated functional currency amount and the original functional
currency amount is recognized in the current profit or loss. For non-trading equity investments
designated as measured at fair value through other comprehensive income the difference between the
translated functional currency amount and the original functional currency amount is recognized in
other comprehensive income.
(3) Translation method for foreign currency financial statements
Before translating the financial statements of overseas operations adjustments should first be made to
align the accounting periods and accounting policies of the overseas operations with those of the
enterprise. After making these adjustments to the accounting policies and periods the financial
statements in corresponding currencies (other than the functional currency) shall be prepared
according to the adjusted accounting policies and periods. Then the financial statements of the
overseas operations shall be translated according to the following methods:
* The assets and liabilities items in the balance sheet shall be treated at the spot exchange rate on
the balance sheet date. Except for the “undistributed profit” items other owners’ equity items shall be
translated at the spot exchange rate at the time of occurrence.* The income and expense items in the income statement shall be translated using the spot exchange
rate at the transaction date or an exchange rate close to the spot rate at the transaction date.* For foreign currency cash flows and the cash flows of foreign subsidiaries the spot exchange rate at
the cash flow transaction date or an exchange rate close to the spot rate shall be used for translation.The impact of exchange rate fluctuations on cash shall be treated as an adjustment item and reported
separately in the cash flow statement.* The foreign currency translation differences arising from the financial statement translation shall be
presented under the “Other comprehensive income” item in the owners’ equity section of the
consolidated balance sheet when preparing the consolidated financial statements.When disposing of an overseas operation and losing control the foreign currency translation
differences related to the overseas operation listed under the owners’ equity section of the balance
sheet shall be fully or proportionally transferred to the profit or loss for the period of disposal.
11.Financial instruments
Financial Instruments refer to contracts that create financial assets for one party and financial liabilities
125 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
or equity instruments for another party.
(1) Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments

financial asset or financial liability.A financial asset should be derecognized when it satisfies one of the following conditions:
* The contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial asset expires;
* The financial asset has been transferred and the transfer meets the derecognition conditions for
financial asset transfer.A financial liability (or part of it) is derecognized when its current obligation has been discharged. If the
Company (borrower) enters into an agreement with the lender to replace an original financial liability
with a new financial liability and the contract terms of the new liability are significantly different from
those of the original liability the original liability is derecognized and a new financial liability is
recognized simultaneously. If the Company makes a substantial modification to the contract terms of
the original financial liability (or part of it) the original financial liability should be derecognized and a
new financial liability should be recognized based on the modified terms.Regular buying and selling of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on the transaction date.Regular buying and selling of financial assets refer to the delivery of financial assets as per the terms of
the contract and at the time determined by regulations or market practices. A transaction date refers
to the date on which the Company commits to buying or selling financial assets.
(2) Classification and measurement of financial assets
Upon initial recognition the Company classifies financial assets based on the business model for
managing the assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset into: financial
assets measured at amortized cost; financial assets measured at fair value with changes recognized in
profit or loss; financial assets measured at fair value with changes recognized in other comprehensive
income. The financial assets shall not be reclassified after initial recognition unless the Company
changes its business model for managing financial assets. In this case all affected relevant financial
assets will be reclassified on the first day of the first Reporting Period following the change in the
business model.Financial assets are initially measured at fair value. For financial assets measured at fair value with
changes recognized in profit or loss the related transaction costs are directly included in the current
profit or loss. For other categories of financial assets transaction costs are included in the initial
recognition amount. Accounts receivable and notes receivable arising from the sale of goods or services
where significant financing components are not included or considered are initially measured by the
Company according to the transaction price defined in the revenue standards.Subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification:
* Financial assets measured at amortized cost
126 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
A financial asset that meets the following conditions shall be classified as a financial asset measured at
amortized cost: The Company’s business model for managing the financial asset is to collect contractual
cash flows; the contractual terms of the financial asset specify that the cash flows generated at specific
dates are solely payments of principal and interest on the outstanding principal amount. For such
financial assets the effective interest method is used for subsequent measurement at amortized cost.The gains or losses arising from derecognition amortization using the effective interest method or
impairment are recognized in the current profit or loss.* Financial assets measured at fair value with changes recognized in other comprehensive income
A financial asset that meets the following conditions shall be classified as a financial asset measured at
fair value with changes recognized in other comprehensive income: The Company’s business model for
managing the financial asset is both to collect contractual cash flows and to sell the financial asset; the
contractual terms of the financial asset specify that the cash flows generated at specific dates are solely
payments of principal and interest on the outstanding principal amount. For such financial assets
subsequent measurement is at fair value. Except for impairment losses or gains and foreign exchange
gains or losses which are recognized in the current profit or loss changes in the fair value of these
financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income until derecognition. At that point the
accumulated gains or losses are transferred to current profit or loss. However interest income for such
financial assets calculated using the effective interest method is recognized in the current profit or
loss.The Company irrevocably elects to designate certain non-trading equity investments as financial assets
measured at fair value with changes recognized in other comprehensive income. Only the related
dividend income is recognized in the current profit or loss and changes in the fair value are recognized
in other comprehensive income. Upon derecognition of the financial asset the accumulated gains or
losses are transferred to undistributed profit.* Financial assets measured at fair value with changes recognized in current profit or loss
Financial assets other than those classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost or financial
assets measured at fair value with changes recognized in other comprehensive income shall be
classified as financial assets measured at fair value with changes recognized in profit or loss. For such
financial assets subsequent measurement is at fair value and all changes in fair value are recognized in
the current profit or loss.
(3) Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
The Company classifies financial liabilities into financial liabilities measured at fair value with changes
recognized in current profit or loss loan commitments at below-market interest rates financial
guarantee contract liabilities and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost.The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification:
* Financial liabilities measured at fair value with changes recognized in current profit or loss
127 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
This type of financial liability includes trading financial liabilities (including derivative instruments that
are financial liabilities) and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss. After initial
recognition these financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value with gains or losses
(including interest expenses) arising from changes in fair value recognized in current profit or loss
except for those related to hedge accounting. However for financial liabilities designated at fair value
through profit or loss changes in fair value arising from changes in the Company’s own credit risk are
recognized in other comprehensive income. When financial liability is derecognized the cumulative
gains and losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income should be reclassified from
other comprehensive income to undistributed profit.* Loan commitments and financial guarantee contract liabilities
A loan commitment is a promise made by the Company to provide a loan to a customer under
predetermined contractual terms within the commitment period. Loan commitments are subject to
impairment losses under the expected credit loss model.A financial guarantee contract refers to a contract where in the event that a specific debtor fails to
repay the debt according to the original or modified terms of the debt instrument the company is
required to compensate the contract holder for a specific amount of loss. The financial guarantee
contract liability is subsequently measured at the higher of the loss allowance determined based on the
impairment principles for financial instruments and the balance after deducting the cumulative
amortization recognized under the revenue recognition principles from the initial recognition amount.* Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost
After initial recognition other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using
the effective interest rate method.Except in special circumstances financial liabilities and equity instruments are distinguished according
to the following principles:
* If the Company cannot unconditionally avoid fulfilling a contract obligation by delivering cash or
other financial assets the contract obligation meets the definition of a financial liability. Some financial
instruments although they do not explicitly contain terms and conditions requiring the delivery of cash
or other financial assets may still indirectly create a contractual obligation through other terms and
conditions.* If a financial instrument is settled or may be settled using the Company’s own equity instruments
it is necessary to consider whether the Company’s own equity instruments used for settlement are a
substitute for cash or other financial assets or whether they represent the remaining equity in the
assets of the issuer after deducting all liabilities. If the former the instrument is a financial liability of
the issuer; if the latter the instrument is an equity instrument of the issuer. In some cases a financial
instrument contract may require or allow settlement using the Company’s own equity instruments
where the amount of contractual rights or obligations is equal to the number of equity instruments that
128 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
can be obtained or delivered multiplied by their fair value at settlement. In this case regardless of
whether the amount of the contractual rights or obligations is fixed or changes partially or entirely
based on variables other than the market price of the Company’s own equity instruments (such as
interest rates commodity prices or prices of other financial instruments) the contract is classified as a
financial liability.
(4) Derivative financial instruments and embedded derivative instruments
Derivatives are initially measured at fair value on the date the derivative contract is signed and
subsequently measured at fair value. A derivative with a positive fair value is recognized as an asset
while a derivative with a negative fair value is recognized as a liability.Except for the portion of cash flow hedges that are effective and recognized in other comprehensive
income which is reclassified to profit or loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss gains or losses
arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are directly recognized in profit or loss for the
current period.For hybrid instruments that contain embedded derivatives if the host contract is a financial asset the
hybrid instrument as a whole applies the relevant financial asset classification rules. If the host contract
is not a financial asset and the hybrid instrument is not measured at fair value with changes recognized
in profit or loss and the embedded derivative is not closely related to the host contract in terms of
economic characteristics and risks and an instrument that is identical to the embedded derivative and
exists separately would meet the definition of a derivative the embedded derivative is separated from
the hybrid instrument and treated as a separate derivative financial instrument. If the fair value of the
embedded derivative cannot be separately measured at the acquisition date or on subsequent balance
sheet dates the hybrid instrument as a whole is designated as a financial asset or financial liability
measured at fair value with changes recognized in current profit or loss.
(5) Impairment of financial instruments
The Company recognizes loss provisions based on expected credit losses for financial assets measured
at amortized cost debt investments measured at fair value with changes recognized in other
comprehensive income contract assets lease receivables loan commitments and financial guarantee
contracts.* Measurement of expected credit loss
Expected credit loss refers to the weighted average of the credit losses of financial instruments
weighted by the risk of default. Credit loss refers to the difference between all contractual cash flows
discounted at the original effective interest rate and receivable according to the contract and all cash
flows expected to be collected of the Company i.e. the present value of all cash shortfalls. Among them
credit-impaired purchased or originated financial assets of the Company shall be discounted at the
credit-adjusted effective interest rate of such financial assets.The expected credit loss over the entire life of a financial instrument refers to the expected credit loss
129 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
arising from all potential default events that may occur during the entire expected life of the
instrument.The expected credit loss within the next 12 months refers to the expected credit loss resulting from
default events that may occur within the next 12 months after the balance sheet date (or the expected
life if the instrument's expected life is shorter than 12 months) and is a part of the expected credit loss
over the entire life of the instrument.At each balance sheet date the Company measures the expected credit loss for financial instruments in
different stages separately. If the credit risk of the financial instrument has not significantly increased
since initial recognition it is classified into Stage 1 and the loss provision is measured based on the
expected credit loss over the next 12 months. If the credit risk has significantly increased but no credit
impairment has occurred since initial recognition it is classified into Stage 2 and the loss provision is
measured based on the expected credit loss over the entire life of the instrument. If the financial
instrument has already incurred credit impairment since initial recognition it is classified into Stage 3
and the loss provision is measured based on the expected credit loss over the entire life of the
instrument.For financial instruments with low credit risk at the balance sheet date the Company assumes that
their credit risk has not significantly increased since initial recognition and the loss provision is
measured based on the expected credit loss over the next 12 months.For financial instruments in Stage 1 Stage 2 and those with low credit risk the Company calculates
interest income based on their carrying amount before impairment provisions and the effective interest
rate. For financial instruments in Stage 3 interest income is calculated based on their carrying amount
after impairment provisions and the effective interest rate.For notes receivable accounts receivable receivable financing and contract assets the Company
measures loss provisions based on the expected credit loss over the entire life of the instrument
regardless of whether there is a significant financing component.A. Receivables / contract assets
For notes receivable accounts receivable other receivables receivable financing contract assets and
long-term receivables where there is objective evidence of impairment as well as other items that are
subject to individual impairment testing the Company performs individual impairment tests to
recognize expected credit losses and make provisions for individual impairments.For notes receivable accounts receivable other receivables receivable financing contract assets and
long-term receivables where there is no objective evidence of impairment or when it is not possible to
reasonably assess the expected credit loss for individual financial assets the Company classifies these
financial instruments into groups based on their credit risk characteristics. The expected credit loss is
then calculated on a portfolio basis. The criteria for grouping are as follows:
The criteria for grouping notes receivable are as follows:
130 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
Group 1: Commercial acceptance bills
Group 2: Bank acceptance bills
For notes receivable grouped into categories the Company refers to historical credit loss experience
current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The expected credit loss is calculated
based on default risk exposure and the expected credit loss rate over the entire life of the instrument.The criteria for grouping accounts receivable are as follows:
Group 1: Aging group
Group 2: Receivables from related parties within the consolidation scope
For accounts receivable grouped into categories the Company refers to historical credit loss experience
current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. A comparison table is prepared that
aligns the aging of accounts receivable with the expected credit loss rate over the entire life of the
instrument. The expected credit loss is then calculated.The criteria for grouping other receivables are as follows:
Group 1: Interest receivable
Group 2: Dividends receivable
Group 3: Other receivables
Group 4: Receivables from related parties within the consolidation scope
For other receivables grouped into categories the Company refers to historical credit loss experience
current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The expected credit loss is calculated
based on default risk exposure and the expected credit loss rate over the next 12 months or the entire
life of the instrument.The criteria for grouping receivable financing are as follows:
Group 1: Notes receivable
Group 2: Accounts receivable
For receivable financing grouped into categories the Company refers to historical credit loss experience
current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The expected credit loss is calculated
based on default risk exposure and the expected credit loss rate over the entire life of the instrument.B. Debt investments and other debt investments
For debt investments and other debt investments the Company calculates expected credit losses based
on the nature of the investment various types of counterparty risk exposures and default risk exposure
using the expected credit loss rate over the next 12 months or the entire life of the instrument.* Low credit risk
If the default risk of a financial instrument is low the borrower has a strong ability to fulfill its
contractual cash flow obligations in the short term and even if adverse economic conditions and
operating environments persist over a longer period they may not necessarily reduce the borrower’s
ability to fulfill its contractual cash flow obligations then the financial instrument is considered to have
131 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
low credit risk.* Significant increase of credit risk
The Company determines whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has significantly increased
since initial recognition by comparing the default probability over the expected life of the financial
instrument at the balance sheet date with the default probability determined at initial recognition. This
helps assess the relative change in the likelihood of default over the instrument’s expected life.In evaluating whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition the
Company considers reasonable and supported information that can be obtained without unnecessary
additional costs or efforts including forward-looking information. The information the Company
considers includes:
A. Whether there has been a significant change in internal price indicators due to changes in credit risk;
B. Whether there have been adverse changes in the business financial or economic conditions that are
expected to significantly affect the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations;
C. Whether the actual or expected operating results of the debtor have changed significantly; whether
the regulatory economic or technological environment of the debtor has undergone significant adverse
changes;
D. Whether the following items have changed significantly: the value of collateral as debt mortgage or
the guarantee provided by a third party or the quality of credit enhancement; these changes will
reduce the debtor’s economic motivation to repay the loan within the time limit stipulated in the
contract or impact the probability of default;
E. Whether there has been a significant change in the economic incentives expected to reduce the
debtor’s motivation to repay according to the contractual terms;
F. Expected changes to the loan contract including whether violations of the contract might lead to the
exemption or revision of contractual obligations the provision of interest-free periods interest rate
hikes requests for additional collateral or guarantees or other changes to the contractual framework
of the financial instrument;
G. Whether the debtor’s expected performance and repayment behavior have changed significantly;
H. Whether the contract payment is overdue for 30 days or more.Based on the nature of the financial instrument the Company evaluates whether the credit risk has
significantly increased on an individual instrument or portfolio basis. When evaluating on a portfolio
basis the Company can classify financial instruments based on common credit risk characteristics such
as overdue information and credit risk ratings.Generally if the payment is overdue for more than 30 days the Company determines that the credit
risk of the financial instrument has significantly increased. However unless the Company can obtain
reasonable and supported information without incurring excessive cost or effort that proves the credit
risk has not significantly increased since initial recognition even though the payment is more than 30
132 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
days overdue the credit risk will be considered significantly increased.* Financial assets with credit impairment
The Company assesses at the balance sheet date whether financial assets measured at amortized cost
and debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income have experienced
credit impairment. If one or more events have adverse effects on the expected future cash flow of a
financial asset the financial asset will become a financial asset that has suffered credit impairment. The
following observable information can be regarded as evidence of credit impairment of financial assets:
The issuer or debtor is in serious financial difficulties; the debtor breaches the contract such as default
or overdue payment of interest or principal etc.; the creditor gives concessions to the debtor due to
economic or contractual considerations related to the debtor’s financial difficulties; the concessions will
not be made under any other circumstances; there is a great possibility of bankruptcy or other financial
restructuring of the debtor; the financial difficulties of the issuer or debtor cause the disappearance of
the active market for the financial asset; the purchase or origin of a financial asset at a substantial
discount that reflects the fact that a credit loss has occurred.* Presentation of expected credit loss provisions
To reflect the changes in the credit risk of financial instruments since initial recognition the Company
remeasures the expected credit loss at each balance sheet date. The increase or reversal of the loss
provision resulting from this remeasurement should be recognized as impairment losses or gains in the
current period's profit or loss. For financial assets measured at amortized cost the loss provision
reduces the carrying amount of the financial asset presented on the balance sheet. For debt
investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income the Company recognizes the
loss provision in other comprehensive income without reducing the carrying amount of the financial
asset.* Write-off
If the Company no longer reasonably expects that the contractual cash flows of a financial asset can be
fully or partially recovered it will directly reduce the carrying amount of the financial asset. This
reduction constitutes the derecognition of the relevant financial asset. This situation typically occurs
when the Company determines that the debtor has no assets or income sources capable of generating
sufficient cash flows to repay the amount being written off.If the previously written-off financial asset is later recovered the recovery is recognized as a reversal of
the impairment loss and included in the profit or loss for the current period.
(6) Transfer of financial assets
The transfer of financial assets refers to the following two situations:
A. Transferring the contractual right to receive the cash flows of a financial asset to another party;
B. Transferring all or part of a financial asset to another party while retaining the contractual right to
receive the cash flows of the financial asset and assuming the contractual obligation to pay the received
133 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
cash flows to one or more payees.* Derecognition of transferred financial assets
If almost all the risks and rewards of ownership of a financial asset have been transferred to the
transferee or if neither the risks and rewards of ownership nor the control of the financial asset have
been retained but the control of the financial asset has been relinquished the financial asset should be
derecognized.When determining whether control of the transferred financial asset has been relinquished the
Company considers the transferee’s ability to sell the financial asset. If the transferee can unilaterally
sell the transferred financial asset to an unrelated third party without additional conditions restricting
the sale the Company has relinquished control of the financial asset.In assessing whether the transfer of a financial asset meets the conditions for derecognition the
Company focuses on the substance of the transfer of the financial asset.When the transfer of a financial asset as a whole meets the derecognition criteria the difference
between the following two amounts should be recognized in the current period's profit or loss:
A. The carrying amount of the transferred financial asset;
B. The consideration received for the transfer plus the amount related to the derecognized portion
from the accumulated fair value changes previously recognized in other comprehensive income (this
applies to financial assets classified as fair value through other comprehensive income under Article 18
of Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial
Instruments).When a partial transfer of a financial asset meets the derecognition criteria the carrying amount of the
entire transferred financial asset should be allocated between the derecognized portion and the
portion that is not derecognized (in this case the retained servicing asset is treated as part of the
continuing recognition of the financial asset) based on their relative fair values at the transfer date. The
difference between the following two amounts should be recognized in current profit or loss:
A. The carrying amount of the derecognized portion at the derecognition date;
B. The consideration received for the derecognized portion plus the amount corresponding to the
derecognized portion from the accumulated fair value changes previously recognized in other
comprehensive income (this applies to financial assets classified as fair value through other
comprehensive income under Article 18 of Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 -
Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments).* Continued involvement in the transferred financial asset
If neither substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets have been
transferred nor retained and control of the financial asset has not been relinquished the Company
should recognize the relevant financial assets to the extent of its continued involvement in the
transferred financial assets and correspondingly recognize the related liability.
134 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
The extent of continued involvement in the transferred financial asset refers to the degree of risk or
reward the Company retains regarding changes in the value of the transferred financial asset.* Continuing Recognition of the Transferred Financial Asset
If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the transferred financial
asset it should continue to recognize the entire transferred financial asset and recognize the
consideration received as a financial liability.The financial asset and the recognized related financial liability must not be offset against each other. In
subsequent accounting periods the Company should continue to recognize the income (or gains)
arising from the financial asset and the expense (or losses) arising from the financial liability.
(7) Offset of financial assets and financial liabilities
In the balance sheet financial assets and financial liabilities are shown separately without offsetting
each other. However if the following conditions are met at the same time the net amount after offset
will be listed in the balance sheet:
The Company has the legal right which is currently enforceable to offset the confirmed amount;
The Company plans to settle on a net basis or realize the financial assets and settle the financial
liabilities at the same time.For the transfer of financial assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria the transferor must not
offset the transferred financial asset against the related liability.
(8) Determination of fair value of financial instruments
The methods for determining the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are provided in
Note V.

16.Inventory
(1) Classification of inventory
The Company's inventories are categorized as raw materials supplies (including packaging and
135 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
low-value consumables) work in progress finished goods goods for resale expendable biological
assets and engineering and construction costs. Expendable biological assets include broilers piglets and
fattening pigs.
(2) Valuation method for inventories upon delivery
The delivered materials delivered finished products and delivered expendable biological assets shall
be calculated by weighted average method.
(3) Inventory system of inventories
The Company adopts a perpetual inventory system with inventories to be checked at least once a year.Any inventory gains or losses will be included in profits and losses for the current year.
(4) Amortization method for turnover materials
* Amortization method for low-value consumables
The Company uses the 50% amortization method for ring moulds and wooden pallets and adopts the
one-time write-off method for other low-value consumables.* Amortization method for packaging materials
The Company adopts the one-time write-off method for packaging materials upon issuance.Criteria for Recognition and Provision Method of Inventory Impairment
On the balance sheet date inventory should be valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. If
the inventory’s cost exceeds its net realizable value the provision for inventory impairment shall be
recognized in current profits and losses.The net realizable value of inventories is determined based on reliable evidence considering the
purpose of holding the inventories the effects of events occurring after the balance sheet date and
other relevant factors.* In the ordinary course of business the net realizable value of inventories held for sale—such as
finished products commodities and materials—is determined by subtracting estimated selling
expenses and relevant taxes from the estimated selling price. For inventories held to fulfill sales or
service contracts their net realizable value is based on the contract price. If the quantity of inventory
exceeds the amount specified in the contract the excess inventory is measured at the general market
price. For materials designated for sale their net realizable value is measured using the prevailing
market price.* During normal production and operation the net realizable value of processed materials is
determined by subtracting estimated costs to complete estimated selling expenses and applicable
taxes from the estimated selling price of the finished products. If the net realizable value of the finished
products exceeds their cost the materials are valued at cost. However if a decline in the material’s
price indicates that the net realizable value of the finished products is lower than their cost the
materials should be valued at their net realizable value. The provision for inventory impairment shall be
recognized for the difference.
136 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
* The Company typically calculates and deducts the provision for inventory impairment based on
individual inventory items. For large quantities of low-priced items the provision is determined and
applied according to inventory categories.* On the balance sheet date if the factors that led to the previous inventory impairment no longer
exist the amount of the impairment shall be reversed. This reversal shall not exceed the original
provision for inventory impairment and the reversed amount should be recognized as part of the
profits and losses for the current period.
17.Contract assets
The Company reports contract assets and contract liabilities on the balance sheet based on the
relationship between performance obligations and customer payments. Amounts the Company is
entitled to receive for transferring goods or providing services—excluding time-based factors—are
recognized as contract assets. Obligations to deliver goods or services in exchange for consideration
already received or receivable from customers are recorded as contract liabilities.Contract assets and contract liabilities are presented separately on the balance sheet. When both arise
from the same contract they are offset and shown as a net amount. If the net balance is a debit it is
reported as “Contract assets” or “Other non-current assets” depending on its liquidity. If the net
balance is a credit it is recognized as “Contract liabilities” or “Other non-current liabilities” based on its
liquidity. Contract assets and contract liabilities from different contracts cannot be offset against each
other.Method of determination and accounting for expected credit loss for contract assets please refer to
Note V-11.
18.Long-term equity investment
The Company’s long-term equity investments include holdings that allow it to exercise control or
significant influence over the investees as well as investments in joint ventures. When the Company is
able to exert significant influence over an investee that entity is considered an associated enterprise.
(1) Criteria for establishing joint control and significant influence over the investee
Joint control refers to shared authority over an arrangement governed by the relevant agreement.Decisions regarding the arrangement's activities can only be made with the unanimous consent of all
participants sharing control. To determine whether joint control exists the first step is to assess
whether all participants or a specific group collectively control the arrangement. If these participants
must act together to make decisions about the arrangement’s activities they are considered to have
joint control. Next it must be evaluated whether decisions related to the arrangement require the
approval of those who collectively control it. Joint control does not exist when two or more participants
simply share control without requiring joint decision-making. Additionally protective rights held by
individual participants are not considered when assessing the existence of joint control.Significant influence refers to the investor’s right to participate in the decision-making processes
137 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
regarding the financial and operational policies of the investee. However it does not grant the investor
control or joint control over the formulation of these policies.When assessing whether the investor has significant influence over the investee consider both the
voting shares directly or indirectly owned by the investor and the potential impact of current
executable voting rights held by the investor and other parties. This includes the effects of convertible
instruments such as warrants stock options and corporate bonds issued by the investee that could be
converted into equity.When the Company owns 20% or more but less than 50% of the voting shares of the investee directly
or indirectly through its subsidiaries it is generally regarded as having a significant influence over the
investee. This assumption holds unless there is clear evidence indicating that the Company is unable to
participate in the investee’s production and operational decisions under those circumstances and does
not exercise significant influence.
(2) Determining the initial investment cost
* The investment cost of long-term equity investments resulting from enterprise mergers shall be
determined in accordance with the following provisions:
A. For a business combination under common control if the merging party provides cash transfers
non-cash assets or assumes debts as consideration the book value of the merged entity’s owners’
equity in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party on the merger date will
be recognized as the initial cost of the long-term equity investment. The difference between the initial
investment cost and the actual cash paid non-cash assets transferred and the book value of debts
assumed shall be adjusted against the capital reserve. If the capital reserve is insufficient to cover the
difference the remaining amount shall be adjusted against undistributed profit.B. For a business combination under common control the merging party issues equity securities as
consideration the share of the book value of the merged entity’s owners’ equity in the consolidated
financial statements of the ultimate controlling party—calculated as of the merger date—shall be
recognized as the initial cost of the long-term equity investment. The total face value of the issued
shares will be recorded as capital stock. Any difference between the initial investment cost and the total
face value of the shares issued should be adjusted to the capital reserve. If the capital reserve is
insufficient to cover this difference the remaining amount shall be adjusted against undistributed
profit.C. For a business combination not under common control the fair value of the assets transferred
liabilities incurred or assumed and equity securities issued on the acquisition date to gain control over
the acquiree is recognized as the acquisition cost. This amount is considered the initial investment cost
of the long-term equity investment. Any intermediary expenses incurred by the acquiring party—such
as audit legal valuation consulting fees and other related administrative costs—should be recognized
as expenses for the current period.
138 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
* Except for long-term equity investments acquired through mergers the investment cost for other
long-term equity investments shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions:
A. For long-term equity investments acquired through cash payment the actual purchase price paid
shall be considered the investment cost. The initial investment cost includes expenses taxes and other
necessary costs directly related to the acquisition of the investment.B. For long-term equity investments acquired through the issuance of equity securities the fair value of
the issued securities shall be recognized as the initial investment cost.C. For long-term equity investments acquired through the exchange of non-monetary assets if the
exchange has commercial substance and the fair value of the assets received or surrendered can be
reliably measured then the initial investment cost shall be based on the fair value of the assets
surrendered including relevant taxes. Any difference between the fair value and the book value of the
surrendered assets shall be recognized in current profits or losses. If the exchange does not meet both
of these conditions simultaneously the initial investment cost shall be based on the book value of the
assets surrendered along with applicable taxes and fees.D. For long-term equity investments acquired through debt restructuring the initial recognition is
based on the fair value of the relinquished creditor’s rights and other directly attributable costs. Any
difference between the fair value of these rights and their book value is recognized as a gain or loss in
current profits and losses.
(3) Method for subsequent measurement and recognition of profit and loss
The Company uses the cost method to account for long-term equity investments in entities it can
control while it applies the equity method for investments in associates and joint ventures.* Cost method
For long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method the carrying amount should be
adjusted when additional investments are made or when investments are withdrawn. Cash dividends or
profits declared and distributed by the investee should be recognized as current investment income.* Equity method
For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method the standard accounting
treatment is:
If the Company’s initial investment cost for a long-term equity investment exceeds the fair value of the
investee’s identifiable net assets at the time of investment no adjustment will be made to the initial
investment cost. Conversely if the initial investment cost is less than the fair value of the investee’s
identifiable net assets the difference will be recognized in current profits and losses and the carrying
amount of the long-term equity investment will be adjusted accordingly.The Company recognizes investment income and other comprehensive income based on its share of
the net profit or loss and other comprehensive income realized by the invested entity that should be
enjoyed or shared. Simultaneously it adjusts the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment
139 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
accordingly. The portion to be recognized is calculated based on the profit or cash dividends declared
and distributed by the invested entity and the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment is
reduced accordingly. Adjustments are also made to the carrying amount of long-term equity investment
for other changes in the investee's equity excluding net profit or loss other comprehensive income
and profit distributions and these adjustments are reflected in the owners’ equity. When recognizing
the share of net profit or loss from the invested entity the net profit is adjusted and confirmed based
on the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the investee at the time of acquiring the investment. If
the invested entity’s accounting policies and periods differ from those of the Company its financial
statements are adjusted to align with the Company’s policies and periods and investment income and
other comprehensive income are recognized accordingly. Unrealized gains and losses from internal
transactions between the Company and its associates or joint ventures are offset proportionally to the
Company’s share and investment gains or losses are recognized on this basis. If the unrealized internal
transaction loss is an asset impairment loss it shall be recognized in full.If an entity can exert significant influence over an investee or exercise joint control but does not have
control due to additional investments or other reasons the initial investment cost under the equity
method should be calculated as the combined fair value of the original equity investment and the cost
of the new investment. When the originally held equity investment is classified as other equity
instruments any difference between its fair value and book value along with accumulated gains or
losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income should be reclassified out of other
comprehensive income and included in undistributed profit in the current period when the equity
method is changed.If joint control or significant influence over the investee is lost due to partial disposal of equity or other
reasons the remaining equity shall be measured at its fair value. Any difference between this fair value
and the book value at the date of loss of joint control or influence shall be recognized in current profits
and losses. Additionally any other comprehensive income previously recognized through the equity
method as a result of the original investment should be accounted for in the same manner as a direct
disposal of related assets or liabilities by the investee when the equity method is terminated.
(4) Equity investments held for sale
For any remaining equity investments not classified as assets held for sale the equity method is applied
for accounting purposes.Equity investments in associates or joint ventures that were previously classified as held for sale but no
longer meet the criteria for such classification should be adjusted retrospectively using the equity
method starting from the date they were reclassified. The financial statements for the period during
which these investments were classified as held for sale should be restated accordingly.
(5) Method for impairment tests and provision for impairment
For investments in subsidiaries associates and joint ventures please refer to Note V-25 for the
140 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
procedures on asset impairment provisions.
19.Investment properties
(1) Types of investment properties
Investment property refers to real estate held primarily to generate rental income appreciate in value
or both. It typically includes:
* Leased land use rights.* Land use rights held and to be transferred after appreciation.* Leased buildings.
(2) Measurement method for investment properties
The Company uses the cost model for subsequent measurement of its investment properties. Please
refer to Note V-25 for details on asset impairment provisions.The Company calculates depreciation or amortization of investment properties using the straight-line
method after deducting accumulated impairments and the net residual value from the asset’s cost. The
depreciation period and annual depreciation rate are determined based on the category estimated
service life and expected residual value rate of the investment real estate.Estimated useful

20.Fixed assets
(1) Recognition conditions
The fixed assets refer to tangible assets with relatively high unit value held for commodity production
rendering services lease or operation management with a service life of more than one accounting
year. The fixed assets are recognized when the following conditions are met:
* The economic interests related to the fixed assets are likely to flow into the Company;
* The costs of the fixed assets can be calculated reliably.Subsequent expenditure for fixed assets shall be recorded in cost of fixed assets if recognition criteria
of fixed assets are satisfied otherwise the expenditure shall be recorded in current profit or loss when
incurred.

21.Construction in progress
(1) Construction in progress is accounted for by project categories based on their approved proposals.
(2) Standard procedures and timeline for capitalizing construction in progress to fixed assets
For the construction in progress project all expenses incurred prior to the asset reaching its expected
usable condition are considered the initial recognition of the fixed asset. This includes construction
costs the original purchase price of machinery and equipment other necessary expenditures to bring
the project to its intended operational state as well as borrowing costs associated with special
financing for the project incurred before the asset becomes usable and borrowing costs from general
loans used during this period. Once the project installation or construction is completed and the asset
reaches its expected usable condition the project under construction is transferred to fixed assets. For
fixed assets that have reached the expected usable state but have not yet undergone final accounting
they are recorded at an estimated value based on the project budget cost or actual expenses incurred
from the date the asset became usable. Depreciation is calculated and recognized in accordance with
the Company’s fixed asset depreciation policies. The original estimated value is adjusted to reflect
actual costs; however previously accrued depreciation remains unchanged.
22.Borrowing costs
(1) Recognition principles and capitalization period for borrowing costs
The Company shall capitalize borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition construction or
production of eligible assets and include them in the asset’s cost provided that all of the following
conditions are met simultaneously:
* The asset expenditure has been incurred.* The borrowing costs have been incurred.* The activities required for the purchase construction or production of the assets to achieve their
expected usable condition have begun.Any other borrowing costs discounts premiums or exchange differences should be included in the
current profit and loss.Borrowing costs shall be capitalized only when the acquisition construction or production of eligible
assets proceeds without abnormal interruption. If such interruption exceeds three months
capitalization shall be suspended.Capitalization of borrowing costs shall cease once the assets under construction or production which
meet the capitalization criteria are ready for their intended use or sale. Any borrowing costs incurred
thereafter shall be recognized as expenses in the current period.
(2) Capitalization rate for borrowing costs and method of calculating the capitalized amount
When a special loan is used to acquire construct or produce assets eligible for capitalization the
interest expense for the current period is calculated as the actual interest incurred on the loan minus
any interest income earned from depositing unused funds in the bank or from temporary investments.
142 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
This net amount represents the capitalized interest expense of the special loan.When a general borrowing is used to acquire construct or produce assets eligible for capitalization the
interest to be capitalized should be calculated by multiplying the weighted average asset
expenditure—specifically the portion of accumulated asset costs exceeding the amount financed by
special borrowings—by the capitalization rate of the general borrowing. This capitalization rate is
determined based on the weighted average interest rate of the general borrowings.
23.Biological assets
(1) Classification of biological assets
The Company’s biological assets include consumable biological assets productive biological assets and
public welfare biological assets. The Company measures biological assets at cost for subsequent
measurement.* Consumable biological assets
Consumable biological assets refer to biological assets held for sale or to be harvested as agricultural
products in the future including growing field crops vegetables timber forests and livestock held for
sale etc. Consumable biological assets are initially measured at cost. The cost of self-cultivated
self-established self-propagated or self-bred consumable biological assets consists of necessary
expenditures directly attributable to the assets before they are sold including borrowing costs that
meet the capitalization criteria. Subsequent expenditures such as management and feeding costs
incurred after the harvest of consumable biological assets are recognized in current profits and losses.When consumable biological assets are harvested or sold their costs are transferred at book value
using the weighted average method.* Productive biological assets
Productive biological assets refer to biological assets held for producing agricultural products providing
services or leasing etc. including economic forests fuelwood forests breeding livestock and draught
animals etc. Productive biological assets are initially measured at cost. The cost of self-established or
self-propagated productive biological assets consists of necessary expenditures directly attributable to
the assets before they reach the intended production and operation purposes including borrowing
costs that meet the capitalization criteria.Management and feeding costs incurred by productive biological assets after they are closed (for
forests) or reach the intended production and operation purposes are recognized in current profits and
losses. The difference between the disposal proceeds of productive biological assets (from sale
inventory shortage death or damage) and their book value plus related taxes is recognized in current
profits and losses.* Public welfare biological assets
Public welfare biological assets refer to biological assets mainly for protection and environmental
conservation purposes including windbreak and sand-fixation forests water and soil conservation
143 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
forests and water source conservation forests etc. Public welfare biological assets are initially
measured at cost. The cost of self-established public welfare biological assets consists of necessary
expenditures directly attributable to the assets before they are closed (canopy closure) including
borrowing costs that meet the capitalization criteria.Subsequent expenditures such as management and maintenance costs incurred by public welfare
biological assets after they are closed (canopy closure) are recognized in current profits and losses.Public welfare biological assets are measured at cost for subsequent measurement and no impairment
provisions are made for them.The difference between the disposal proceeds of public welfare biological assets (from sale inventory
shortage death or damage) and their book value plus related taxes is recognized in current profits and
losses.
(2) Useful life and depreciation method of productive biological assets
Depreciation of productive biological assets is calculated using the straight-line method. The
depreciation rate is determined based on the estimated service life and residual value rate of each type
of biological asset as follows:
Anticipated net
Type Service life Depreciation method
residual value
Straight-line service
Pig breeder 36 months 20.00%

RMB 22.50 per
Broiler breeder 30 weeks Workload

Straight-line service
Layer 14 months RMB 21.00 per layer

Straight-line service
Breeding cow 6 years 30%
life
The Company reviews the service life estimated net residual value and depreciation method of
productive biological assets at least at the end of each year. If there is a change it shall be treated as a
change in accounting estimate.
24.Intangible assets
(1) Valuation methods for intangible assets
Intangible assets are recorded at their acquisition cost.
(2) The service life and its determination basis estimated situation amortization method or review
procedures
* Estimating the service life of intangible assets with limited service life
Categories Estimated service life(year) Basis

Land use rights Legal life

144 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
Computer software The service life is determined by reference to the period that can
and other bring economic benefits to the Company
At the end of each year the Company will review the service life and amortization method of intangible
assets with limited service lives.If after review there are no changes from previous estimates the current service life and amortization
method will remain unchanged.* If it is not possible to determine the time frame within which intangible assets will generate
economic benefits for the company they should be classified as intangible assets with an indefinite
service life. For such assets the Company shall review their service life at the end of each year. If after
this review the service life remains uncertain an impairment test shall be performed as of the balance
sheet date.* Amortization of intangible assets
For intangible assets with a limited service life the Company determines their service life at the time of
acquisition. These assets are then amortized systematically and reasonably using the straight-line
method over their designated service life. The amortization expense is recorded in either the current
profit and loss or the cost of related assets depending on the beneficiary items. The amortizable
amount is calculated as the asset’s cost minus its estimated residual value. For intangible assets that
have been impaired the accumulated impairment losses are also deducted when determining the net
book value. The residual value of an intangible asset with a limited service life is generally considered
zero unless there is a third-party commitment to purchase the asset at the end of its service life or if
reliable information about an estimated residual value can be obtained from an active market
indicating that a market is likely to exist at the end of the asset’s service life.Intangible assets with uncertain service life should not be amortized. Their service life must be
reviewed annually. If evidence indicates that the asset’s service life is limited its service life should be
estimated accordingly and amortization should be carried out systematically and prudently within that
estimated period.
(3) Sweep scope for R&D expenses and relevant accounting treatments
The Company classifies all expenses directly associated with research and development activities as
R&D expenditures. These include R&D staff salaries direct input costs depreciation expenses and
long-term deferred expenses etc.* The Company considers preparatory activities such as data collection and other relevant
preparations for further development as part of the research phase. Expenses incurred during this
research stage for intangible assets are recognized in the current profit and loss when they occur.* Activities conducted after the Company has completed the research phase will be considered part
of the development stage.Expenditures during the development stage can be recognized as intangible assets only if they
simultaneously meet the following conditions:
145 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
A. It is technically feasible to develop the intangible asset to the point where it can be used or sold.B. It aims to complete the intangible asset for use or sale.C. The manner in which the intangible asset generates economic benefits including demonstrating the
existence of a market for the products created using the asset or for the asset itself. It also involves
confirming that the intangible asset will be used internally and providing evidence of its usefulness.D. It possesses adequate technical financial and other resources to complete the development of the
intangible assets and has the capacity to effectively utilize or sell them.E. The costs associated with the development stage of the intangible asset can be reliably determined.
25.Impairment of long-lived assets
The impairment of long-term equity investments in subsidiaries associates and joint ventures as well
as investment properties fixed assets construction in progress productive biological assets measured
at cost right-of-use assets intangible assets goodwill proven oil and gas mining rights and wells and
related facilities (excluding inventories deferred tax assets and financial assets) measured
subsequently at cost shall be assessed using the following methods:
On the balance sheet date the Company will assess whether there are any indications of potential
asset impairment. If such signs are identified the Company will estimate the recoverable amount and
perform an impairment test. Additionally goodwill arising from business combinations intangible
assets with uncertain service life and intangible assets not yet ready for use must undergo annual
impairment testing regardless of whether there are any signs of impairment.The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the fair value of the asset less disposal expenses
and the present value of estimated future cash flows generated by the asset. The Company assesses
the recoverable amount on a per-asset basis. If it is challenging to estimate the recoverable amount of a
single asset the Company evaluates the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the asset
belongs. An asset group is recognized based on whether the primary cash inflow it generates is
independent of other assets or other asset groups.When the recoverable amount of an asset or asset group falls below its book value the Company shall
reduce its carrying amount to the recoverable amount. The impairment loss will be recognized in the
current profit and loss and an appropriate provision for asset impairment will be established
simultaneously.Regarding the impairment test for goodwill the book value of goodwill arising from a business
combination should be allocated to the relevant asset groups using a reasonable method from the
acquisition date. If it is difficult to allocate to specific asset groups it should be allocated to the relevant
combination of asset groups. These asset groups or combinations are those that are expected to
benefit from the synergies of the business combination and are not larger than the reporting segments
defined by the Company.During the impairment test if there are any indications of impairment in the asset group or
146 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
combination of asset groups related to goodwill the asset group or groups excluding goodwill should
be tested first. The recoverable amount will be calculated and any resulting impairment loss recognized.Subsequently the asset group or groups containing goodwill will undergo impairment testing with
their carrying amounts compared to their recoverable amounts. If the recoverable amount is lower
than the carrying amount an impairment loss for goodwill should be recognized.Once an asset impairment loss is recognized it cannot be reversed in subsequent accounting periods.
26.Long-term prepaid expenses
Long-term deferred expenses are costs that the Company has already incurred but will be allocated
over the current and subsequent periods with an amortization period exceeding one year.The Company’s long-term deferred expenses are generally amortized over their respective benefit
periods.
27.Contract liabilities
The Company's method for recognizing contract liabilities is detailed in Note V- 17.
28.Employee remuneration
Employee compensation refers to all forms of remuneration the Company provides in exchange for
employees’ services or upon the termination of employment. This includes short-term incentives
post-employment benefits severance packages and other long-term employee benefits. Additionally
benefits extended to employees’ spouses children dependents survivors of deceased employees and
other beneficiaries are also considered part of employee compensation.Based on liquidity employee compensation is recorded under “Employee compensation payable” and
“Long-term employee compensation payable” on the balance sheet.
(1) Accounting treatment of short-term employee compensation
* Basic employee compensation including salary bonuses allowances and subsidies
During the accounting period in which employees provide services the Company recognizes the actual
short-term compensation as a liability and records it as an expense in the current period except for
amounts that are required or permitted by other accounting standards to be capitalized as part of asset
costs.* Employee benefits expenses
Employee benefits expenses incurred by the Company shall be recognized in the current profit and loss
or as part of the cost of relevant assets based on the actual amount incurred. For non-monetary
benefits their value shall be measured at fair value.* Medical insurance premiums industrial injury insurance maternity insurance and other social
insurance contributions along with housing provident fund trade union funds and staff education
funds.During the accounting period in which employees provide services the Company shall calculate and
determine the corresponding employee compensation for social insurance premiums (including
147 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
medical insurance work-related injury insurance maternity insurance and other social insurance
contributions) housing provident fund payments labor union funds and employee education funds in
accordance with applicable regulations. These amounts shall be based on the prescribed accrual basis
and proportions. The corresponding liabilities shall be recognized and included either in the current
profit and loss or as part of the cost of related assets.* Short-term paid leave
The Company recognizes employee compensation for accumulated paid leave when employees provide
services that increase their future paid leave entitlement. This is measured by the expected payment
amount adjusted for any accumulated unused leave rights. For non-cumulative paid absences the
Company recognizes related compensation during the accounting period in which the employee is
actually absent from work.* Short-term profit-sharing plan
If the profit-sharing plan simultaneously meets the following conditions the Company will confirm the
corresponding employee compensation payable:
A. The Company has a legal or constructive obligation to pay employee compensation arising from past
events.B. The amount of the employee compensation obligation arising from the profit-sharing plan can be
reliably estimated
(2) Accounting treatment for post-employment benefits
* Defined contribution plan
During the accounting period in which employees provide services the Company will recognize the
payable amount calculated under the defined contribution plan as a liability. This amount will be
included in current profit and loss or allocated to the cost of related assets.Under the defined contribution plan if it is anticipated that the deposit will not be fully paid within 12
months after the end of the annual Reporting Period during which employees provide the related
services the Company should use an appropriate discount rate. This rate is determined based on the
market yield of treasury bonds or high-quality corporate bonds with similar maturity and currency in an
active market as of the balance sheet date. The total deposit amount is then measured as the present
value of the employee compensation payable discounted at this rate.* Defined benefit plan
A. Determine the present value of the defined benefit plan obligation and the current service cost
Using the expected cumulative unit benefit method relevant demographic and financial variables are
estimated based on unbiased and mutually consistent actuarial assumptions. The obligations stemming
from the defined benefit plan are then measured and the vesting period for these obligations is
determined. The Company discounts the obligations using an appropriate discount rate—derived from
the market yields of treasury bonds or high-quality corporate bonds that match the duration and
148 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
currency of the plan’s obligations on the balance sheet date. This process calculates the present value
of the defined benefit obligations and the current service cost.B. Recognize net liabilities or net assets in defined benefit plans
If the defined benefit plan has assets the Company will recognize a net liability or net asset based on
the difference between the present value of the plan’s obligations and the fair value of its assets. This
reflects either a deficit or a surplus in the plan.If there is a surplus in the defined benefit plan the Company shall measure the plan’s net assets at the
lesser of the surplus amount and the maximum allowable asset ceiling.C. Determine the amount to be included in the assets’ cost or current profit and loss
Service costs including current service costs past service costs and settlement gains or losses. Except
for current service costs that are required or permitted by other accounting standards to be capitalized
as part of asset costs all other service costs are recognized in current profits and losses.The net interest on the net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit plan—including interest
income from plan assets interest expenses on the plan obligations and interest related to the asset
ceiling—shall be recognized in current profits and losses.D. Determine the amount to be included in other comprehensive income
The adjustments resulting from the re-measurement of the net liabilities or net assets of the defined
benefit plan include:
(a) Actuarial gains or losses which are increases or decreases in the present value of previously
recognized defined benefit plan obligations resulting from changes in actuarial assumptions and
experience adjustments;
(b) The return on plan assets minus the amount included in the net interest on the plan’s net liability or
net assets;
(c) Changes in the impact of the asset ceiling net of the amount included in the net interest on the net
liabilities or net assets of a defined benefit plan.Any changes resulting from the re-measurement of the net liabilities or net assets of the defined
benefit plan are recognized directly in other comprehensive income. These amounts cannot be
reclassified to profit or loss in future periods. Upon the termination of the original defined benefit plan
the Company will transfer all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income to
undistributed profits within equity.
(3) Accounting treatment for termination benefits
When the Company offers termination benefits to employees the corresponding employee
compensation liabilities shall be recognized and included in current profits and losses on the earlier of
these two dates:
* When the enterprise cannot unilaterally revoke the termination benefits offered due to plans to
terminate the employment relationship or layoff proposals;
149 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
* When the Company confirms the costs or expenses associated with the reorganization including the
payment of termination benefits.If the termination benefits are not expected to be fully paid within 12 months after the end of the
annual Reporting Period the amount should be discounted using an appropriate discount rate. This
rate should be based on the market yield of treasury bonds or high-quality corporate bonds that match
the period and currency of the defined benefit plan obligations as of the balance sheet date. The
employee compensation payable shall then be measured at this discounted amount.
(4) Accounting treatment for other long-term employee benefits
* Complying with the requirements of the defined contribution plan
For other long-term employee benefits offered by the Company if they qualify as a defined
contribution plan all payable amounts shall be discounted to determine the employee compensation
payable.* Complying with the requirements of the defined benefit plan
At the end of the Reporting Period the Company recognizes employee compensation costs related to
other long-term employee benefits including the following components:
A. Service costs;
B. Net interest on the net liabilities or assets of other long-term employee benefits;
C. Adjustments resulting from the re-measurement of net liabilities or net assets related to other
long-term employee benefits.To simplify the accounting process the total net amount of the above items is incorporated into the
current profit and loss or the cost of related assets.
29.Estimated liabilities
(1) Recognition criteria of estimated liabilities
If the obligations related to contingencies meet all of the following conditions simultaneously the
Company will recognize them as estimated liabilities:
* The obligation refers to the Company’s present obligation.* The performance of the obligation is likely to lead to the outflow of economic benefits from the
Company.* The amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
(2) Measurement of estimated liabilities
The estimated liabilities are initially recognized based on the best estimate of the expenditure needed
to settle the present obligations considering risks uncertainties the time value of money and other
relevant factors related to contingencies. The carrying amount of these estimated liabilities should be
reviewed at each balance sheet date. If there is clear evidence indicating that the carrying amount no
longer reflects the current best estimate it should be adjusted accordingly.
150 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
30.Share-based payment
(1) Categories of share-based payments
The Company’s share-based payments include both cash-settled and equity-settled arrangements.
(2) Determination method of fair value of equity instruments
* The fair value of shares granted to employees shall be determined based on the current market
price of the Company’s shares adjusted to reflect the specific terms and conditions of the grant
excluding any vesting conditions other than market-based ones.* In many cases obtaining an exact market price for employee stock options can be challenging.When there are no traded options with similar terms and conditions the Company will use an
appropriate option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the options granted.
(3) Basis for determining the best estimate of exercisable equity instruments
On each balance sheet date during the vesting period the Company will make the most accurate
estimate possible based on the latest available information—such as changes in the number of
employees eligible to exercise their options—and will revise the expected number of exercisable equity
instruments accordingly to ensure the best estimate for exercisable equity instruments.
(4) Accounting treatment for implementing share-based payment plans
Cash-settled share-based payments
* For cash-settled share-based payments that can be exercised immediately after the grant the fair
value of the liabilities assumed by the Company should be recognized as part of the relevant costs or
expenses on the grant date with an increase in liabilities accordingly. The fair value of these liabilities
must be re-measured at each balance sheet date and again on the settlement date with any changes
recognized in profit or loss.* For cash-settled share-based payments that can only be exercised after the completion of service
within the vesting period or once specific performance conditions are met the costs or expenses
incurred during the current period should be recognized. The corresponding liabilities should be
recorded at their fair value reflecting the Company’s assumed liabilities on each balance sheet date
within the vesting period. This fair value should be estimated based on the best assessment of the
exercisable conditions.Equity-settled share-based payments
* For equity-settled share-based payments granted in exchange for employee services that can be
exercised immediately after the grant the fair value of the equity instrument should be recognized as
part of the relevant costs or expenses on the grant date with a corresponding increase in capital
reserve.* For equity-settled share-based payments granted in exchange for employee services that become
exercisable only after the completion of service within the vesting period or the satisfaction of specified
performance conditions on each balance sheet date during the vesting period the services received in
151 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
the current period shall be recognized in costs or expenses and capital reserve. The amount is based on
the best estimate of the number of exercisable equity instruments and the fair value of the equity
instruments at the grant date.
(5) Accounting treatment for modifications to share-based payment plans
When the Company amends the share-based payment plan any increase in the fair value of the
granted equity instruments resulting from the modification shall be recognized as an increase in the
services acquired. Similarly if the modification increases the number of equity instruments granted the
additional fair value shall also be recognized as an increase in the services acquired. The increase in fair
value is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the equity instruments before and after
the modification date. If the modification reduces the total fair value of the share-based payment or
alters the plan’s terms and conditions in a way that is unfavorable to employees the accounting
treatment for the services already obtained shall remain unchanged as if the modification had not
occurred unless the Company cancels part or all of the granted equity instruments.
(6) Accounting treatment for terminating a share-based payment plan
If the equity instruments granted are canceled or settled during the vesting period (excluding
cancellations due to failure to meet vesting conditions) the Company:
* considers cancellation or settlement as an acceleration of the exercisable right and the amount
that would have been recognized during the remaining vesting period shall be recognized immediately.* considers all payments made to employees upon cancellation or settlement as equity repurchase.Any amount exceeding the fair value of the equity instrument on the repurchase date will be
recognized as a current expense.If the Company repurchases equity instruments that employees have exercised it will reduce the
owners’ equity. If the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the equity instruments on the repurchase
date the excess will be recognized in current profits and losses.
31.Revenue
(1) General principles
Revenue is the total economic benefits earned from the Company’s regular business activities leading
to an increase in shareholders’ equity. It is not related to the capital invested by shareholders.The Company recognizes revenue when it fulfills its contractual performance obligations i.e. when the
customer obtains control of the relevant goods. Obtaining control of the relevant goods means having
the ability to direct the use of the goods and obtain almost all economic benefits therefrom.When a contract contains two or more performance obligations the Company on the contract
commencement date allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the
relative proportion of the standalone selling prices of the goods or services promised in each
performance obligation and measures revenue based on the transaction price allocated to each
performance obligation.
152 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
The transaction price is the amount of consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to receive
for transferring goods or services to the customer excluding amounts collected on behalf of third
parties. When determining the contract transaction price if there is variable consideration the
Company determines the best estimate of the variable consideration based on the expected value or
the most likely amount and includes in the transaction price an amount that does not exceed the
amount at which a significant reversal of cumulatively recognized revenue is highly unlikely to occur
when the relevant uncertainties are resolved. If a contract contains a significant financing component
the Company determines the transaction price based on the amount payable by the customer in cash
when the customer obtains control of the goods. The difference between the transaction price and the
contract consideration is amortized over the contract period using the effective interest method. For
contracts where the interval between the transfer of control and the customer’s payment does not
exceed one year the Company does not consider the financing component.An obligation is satisfied over time if one of the following conditions is met; otherwise it is satisfied at a
point in time:
* The customer receives and enjoys the economic benefits generated by the Company’s performance
under the contract.* The customer has the right to oversee the goods under construction while the Company is
performing its services.* The products manufactured by the Company in the course of fulfilling the contract serve unique
and indispensable purposes. The Company is entitled to receive payment for the completed portion of
the contract throughout its duration.For performance obligations fulfilled within a specified period the Company shall recognize revenue
based on the progress of performance during that period unless the progress cannot be reasonably
measured. The Company will assess the progress of services using either an input method (such as
costs incurred) or an output method. If the progress cannot be reasonably determined but the
Company expects to be compensated for the costs incurred revenue will be recognized equal to the
costs incurred until the progress can be reliably measured.For performance obligations fulfilled at a specific point in time the Company recognizes revenue when
the customer gains control of the relevant goods or services. To assess whether control has been
transferred the Company will consider the following indicators:
* The customer obtains and consumes the economic benefits from the Company’s performance as
the Company performs;
* The customer has the ability to control the goods under construction during the Company’s
performance;
* The goods produced by the Company in performing its obligations have no alternative use and the
Company has the right to receive payment for the cumulative completed portion of the performance
153 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
up to the present time throughout the contract period.For performance obligations satisfied over time the Company recognizes revenue over that period
based on the progress of performance except when the progress of performance cannot be reasonably
determined. The Company determines the progress of service provision using the input method (or
output method). When the progress of performance cannot be reasonably determined if the Company
expects that the costs incurred can be compensated it recognizes revenue in the amount of the costs
incurred until the progress of performance can be reasonably determined.For performance obligations satisfied at a point in time the Company recognizes revenue when the
customer obtains control of the relevant goods. In judging whether the customer has obtained control
of the goods or services the Company considers the following indicators:
* The Company has a present right to receive payment for the goods or services i.e. the customer
has a present obligation to pay for the goods;
* The Company has transferred the legal ownership of the goods to the customer i.e. the customer
has obtained legal ownership of the goods;
* The Company has transferred physical possession of the goods to the customer i.e. the customer
has physical possession of the goods;
* The Company has transferred significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods to the
customer i.e. the customer has obtained the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;
* The customer has accepted the goods.Sales return clauses
For sales with sales return clauses when the customer obtains control of the relevant goods the
Company recognizes revenue in the amount of consideration to which it is entitled for transferring the
goods to the customer and recognizes a provision for the amount expected to be refunded due to sales
returns as a liability; at the same time recognizes an asset i.e. refundable return costs in the amount
equal to the carrying amount of the expected returned goods at the time of transfer minus the
estimated costs to recover the goods (including impairment of the value of returned goods). The cost is
transferred at the net amount of the carrying amount of the transferred goods at the time of transfer
minus the cost of the above assets. At each balance sheet date the Company re-estimates future sales
returns and remeasures the above assets and liabilities.Quality assurance obligations
In accordance with contractual agreements legal provisions etc. the Company provides quality
assurance for sold goods constructed projects etc. For assurance-type quality assurance that
guarantees to the customer that the sold goods meet established standards the Company accounts for
it in accordance with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 13 - Contingencies. For
service-type quality assurance that provides a separate service in addition to guaranteeing that the sold
goods meet established standards to the customer the Company treats it as a separate performance
154 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
obligation allocates part of the transaction price to the service-type quality assurance based on the
relative proportion of the standalone selling prices of the provided goods and service-type quality
assurance and recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control of the service. In evaluating
whether the quality assurance provides a separate service in addition to guaranteeing that the sold
goods meet established standards to the customer the Company considers factors such as whether the
quality assurance is legally required the duration of the quality assurance and the nature of the tasks
that the Company commits to perform.Principal vs. agent
The Company determines whether it acts as a principal or an agent in a transaction based on whether it
has control of the goods or services before transferring them to the customer. If the Company has
control of the goods or services before transferring them to the customer the Company is the principal
and recognizes revenue based on the total amount of consideration received or receivable. Otherwise
the Company is an agent and recognizes revenue based on the amount of commission or handling fee it
expects to be entitled to which shall be determined based on the net amount after deducting the
amounts payable to other relevant parties from the total amount of consideration received or
receivable or based on the agreed commission amount or ratio etc.Consideration payable to customers
If a contract contains consideration payable to a customer unless the consideration is for obtaining
other distinct goods or services from the customer the Company offsets the payable consideration
against the transaction price and reduces current revenue at the later of the date when the relevant
revenue is recognized and the date when the payment (or commitment to pay) to the customer is
made.Customer’s unexercised contractual rights
When the Company receives advance payments from customers for the sale of goods or services it first
recognizes the amount as a liability and converts it to revenue only when the relevant performance
obligations are fulfilled. When the Company’s advance payments are non-refundable and the customer
may waive all or part of their contractual rights if the Company expects to be entitled to the amount
related to the customer’s waived contractual rights it recognizes the above amount as revenue in
proportion to the pattern of the customer’s exercise of contractual rights; otherwise the Company
converts the relevant balance of the liability to revenue only when the probability of the customer
requesting performance of the remaining obligations is extremely low.Contract modifications
When there is a modification to the construction contract between the Company and the customer:
* If the contract modification adds distinct construction services and contract price and the new
contract price reflects the standalone selling price of the additional construction services the Company
accounts for the contract modification as a separate contract.
155 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
* If the contract modification does not fall into the first scenario above and the transferred
construction services and untransferred construction services at the contract modification date are
distinct the Company treats it as the termination of the original contract and combines the
unperformed part of the original contract with the contract modification part to form a new contract
for accounting treatment.* If the contract modification does not fall into the first scenario above and the transferred
construction services and untransferred construction services at the contract modification date are not
distinct the Company accounts for the contract modification part as an integral part of the original
contract and the impact on recognized revenue arising therefrom is adjusted to current revenue at the
contract modification date.
(2) Specific methods
The specific methods for the Company’s revenue recognition are as follows:
The Company’s sales revenue mainly consists of sales revenue from goods such as feed products feed
raw materials poultry products commercial pigs etc. The Company recognizes revenue when payment
has been received (cash sales or advance payment method) or is expected to be recoverable (credit
sales method) and the goods have been delivered to the customer in accordance with the contractual
agreement and the customer has obtained control of the relevant goods
32.Contract costs
Contract costs are divided into contract performance costs and contract acquisition costs.The Company recognizes costs incurred to fulfill a contract as an asset (contract performance costs)
when all of the following conditions are met:
* The cost is directly related to a current or expected contract including direct labor direct materials
manufacturing expenses (or similar expenses) costs explicitly borne by the customer and other costs
incurred solely because of the contract.* The cost increases the Company’s future resources to fulfill performance obligations.* The cost is expected to be recoverable.The incremental costs incurred by the Company to obtain a contract that are expected to be
recoverable are recognized as an asset (contract acquisition costs).Assets related to contract costs are amortized on the same basis as the revenue recognition of the
goods or services related to the asset; however if the amortization period of contract acquisition costs
does not exceed one year the Company recognizes them in current profits and losses when incurred.If the carrying amount of an asset related to contract costs exceeds the difference between the
following two items the Company will recognize an impairment provision for the excess amount
recognize it as an asset impairment loss and further consider whether to accrue a provision for
estimated liabilities related to loss-making contracts:
* The remaining consideration expected to be obtained from the transfer of goods or services related
156 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
to the asset;
* The estimated costs to be incurred to transfer the related goods or services.If the above asset impairment provision is subsequently reversed the carrying amount of the asset
after reversal shall not exceed the carrying amount of the asset on the reversal date assuming no
impairment provision was recognized.Contract performance costs recognized as assets with an amortization period not exceeding one year
or a normal operating cycle at initial recognition are presented under the “Inventory” item; those with
an amortization period exceeding one year or a normal operating cycle at initial recognition are
presented under the “Other non-current assets” item.Contract acquisition costs recognized as assets with an amortization period not exceeding one year or
a normal operating cycle at initial recognition are presented under the “Other current assets” item;
those with an amortization period exceeding one year or a normal operating cycle at initial recognition
are presented under the “Other non-current assets” item.
33.Government grant
(1) Recognition of government subsidies
Government grants are recognized only when both of the following conditions are met:
* The Company is able to meet the conditions attached to the government grant;
* The Company is able to receive the government grant.
(2) Measurement of government grants
If a government grant is a monetary asset it is measured at the amount received or receivable. If it is a
non-monetary asset it is measured at fair value; if fair value cannot be reliably determined it is
measured at a nominal amount of RMB 1.
(3) Accounting treatment for government grants
* Asset-related government grants
Government grants obtained by the Company for the purchase construction or other formation of
long-term assets are classified as asset-related government grants. Asset-related government grants are
recognized as deferred income and amortized into profits and losses in a reasonable and systematic
manner over the service life of the relevant assets. Government grants measured at a nominal amount
are recognized directly in current profits and losses. If the relevant asset is sold transferred scrapped
or damaged before the end of its service life the remaining balance of the related deferred income is
transferred to the profit or loss of the current period of asset disposal.* Income-related government grants
Government grants other than asset-related government grants are classified as income-related
government grants. Income-related government grants are accounted for as follows depending on the
circumstances:
Those used to compensate for the Company’s relevant costs expenses or losses in future periods are
157 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
recognized as deferred income and included in current profits and losses in the period when the
relevant costs expenses or losses are recognized;
Those used to compensate for the Company’s already incurred relevant costs expenses or losses are
recognized directly in current profits and losses.For government grants that include both asset-related and income-related components the different
components are accounted for separately; if it is difficult to distinguish the entire grant is classified as
income-related government grant.Government grants related to the Company’s daily activities are included in other income based on the
economic substance of the transaction. Government grants unrelated to the Company’s daily activities
are included in non-operating income and expenses.* Policy-based preferential loan interest grants
If the finance department allocates the interest grant funds to the lending bank and the lending bank
provides loans to the Company at a policy-based preferential interest rate the actual amount of the
loan received is recognized as the book value of the loan and the relevant borrowing costs are
calculated based on the principal of the loan and the policy-based preferential interest rate.If the finance department allocates the interest grant funds directly to the Company the Company
offsets the corresponding interest grant against the relevant borrowing costs.* Repayment of government grants
When a recognized government grant needs to be repaid if the initial recognition offset the carrying
amount of the relevant asset the carrying amount of the asset is adjusted; if there is a balance of
relevant deferred income the carrying balance of the relevant deferred income is offset and the excess
is included in current profits and losses; in other cases it is recognized directly in current profits and
losses.
34.Deferred income tax assets or deferred income tax liabilities
The Company generally uses the balance sheet liability method to recognize and measure the effects of
taxable and deductible temporary differences on income tax which are recorded as deferred income
tax liabilities or deferred income tax assets based on the differences between the carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date and their respective tax bases. The Company does not
discount deferred income tax assets or liabilities.
(1) Recognition of deferred income tax assets
For deductible temporary differences as well as deductible losses and tax credits that can be carried
forward to future years their impact on income tax is calculated using the tax rate expected at the time
of reversal. These amounts are recognized as deferred income tax assets but only to the extent that
the Company is likely to generate future taxable income to offset these deductible temporary
differences deductible losses and tax credits.The impact of deductible temporary differences on income tax arising from the initial recognition of
158 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
assets or liabilities in transactions or events with the following characteristics is not recognized as a
deferred income tax asset:
A. The transaction is not a business combination;
B. At the time of the transaction it neither affects accounting profit nor taxable income (or deductible
losses).However the exemption from initially recognizing deferred income tax liabilities and assets does not
apply to a single transaction that simultaneously meets the above two conditions and results in
equivalent taxable temporary differences and deductible temporary differences. For such transactions
the Company recognizes the corresponding deferred income tax liabilities and assets at the time of the
transaction for the taxable and deductible temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of
assets and liabilities.For deductible temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries associates and joint
ventures the impact on income tax is recognized as a deferred income tax asset only if both of the
following conditions are met:
A. The temporary differences are likely to reverse in the foreseeable future;
B. It is likely that future taxable income will be available to offset the deductible temporary differences.On the balance sheet date if there is clear evidence indicating that sufficient taxable income is likely to
be generated in the future to offset the deductible temporary differences the previously unrecognized
deferred income tax assets are recognized.On the balance sheet date the Company reviews the carrying amount of deferred income tax assets. If
it is likely that sufficient taxable income will not be available in the future to realize the benefits of
deferred income tax assets the carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is written down. When it
becomes likely that sufficient taxable income will be available the written-down amount is reversed.
(2) Recognition of deferred income tax liabilities
The Company measures the impact of all taxable temporary differences on income tax using the income
tax rate expected for the period of reversal and recognizes such impact as deferred income tax liabilities
except in the following cases:
* The impact of taxable temporary differences arising from the following transactions or events on
income tax is not recognized as deferred income tax liabilities:
A. The initial recognition of goodwill;
B. The initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and
at the time of the transaction neither affects accounting profit nor taxable income or deductible losses.* For taxable temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries joint ventures and
associates the impact on income tax is generally recognized as a deferred income tax liability except
when both of the following conditions are met:
A. The Company has the ability to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences;
159 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
B. It is unlikely that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future.
(3) Recognition of deferred income tax liabilities or assets arising from specific transactions or events
* Deferred income tax liabilities or assets related to business combinations
For taxable or deductible temporary differences arising from business combinations not under common
control when recognizing deferred income tax liabilities or assets the related deferred tax expenses (or
gains) are generally used to adjust the goodwill recognized in the business combination.* Items directly included in owners’ equity
Current tax and deferred tax related to transactions or events directly included in owners’ equity are
included in owners’ equity. Transactions or events where the impact of temporary differences on
income tax is included in owners’ equity include: other comprehensive income arising from changes in
the fair value of other debt investments adjustments to opening undistributed profit through
retrospective application of changes in accounting policies or retrospective restatement of prior period
(significant) accounting errors and initial recognition of hybrid financial instruments with both liability
and equity components in owners’ equity.* Deductible losses and tax credits
A. Deductible losses and tax credits arising from the Company’s own operations
Deductible losses are losses determined in accordance with tax laws that are allowed to be offset
against taxable income in future years. Unused losses (deductible losses) and tax credits that can be
carried forward to future years are treated as deductible temporary differences. When it is likely that
sufficient taxable income will be available in future periods to utilize these deductible losses or tax
credits a deferred income tax asset is recognized to the extent of the likely taxable income with a
corresponding reduction in income tax expense for the current period.B. Deductible unused losses of the acquired company arising from a business combination
In a business combination if the Company acquires deductible temporary differences of the acquiree
that do not meet the criteria for recognizing deferred income tax assets on the acquisition date they
are not recognized. Within 12 months after the acquisition date if new or additional information
indicates that the circumstances existing at the acquisition date make it likely that the economic
benefits from the acquiree’s deductible temporary differences will be realized the related deferred
income tax assets are recognized with a corresponding reduction in goodwill. If goodwill is insufficient
to absorb the amount the excess is recognized in current profit or loss; otherwise deferred income tax
assets related to the business combination are recognized in current profit or loss.* Temporary differences arising from consolidation eliminations
When preparing consolidated financial statements if temporary differences arise between the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet and their tax bases in the respective
tax jurisdictions (e.g. due to elimination of unrealized internal sales profits and losses) deferred
income tax assets or liabilities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheet with a corresponding
160 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
adjustment to income tax expense in the consolidated income statement except for deferred tax
related to transactions or events directly included in owners’ equity or business combinations.* Equity-settled share-based payments
If tax laws allow the deduction of expenses related to share-based payments for tax purposes during
the period when such costs are recognized in accordance with accounting standards the Company
estimates the deductible amount based on information available at the end of the accounting period to
determine the tax basis and resulting temporary differences and recognizes the related deferred
income tax if the recognition criteria are met. If the expected future deductible amount exceeds the
share-based payment costs recognized under accounting standards the tax impact of the excess is
recognized directly in owners’ equity.* Dividends on financial instruments classified as equity instruments
For financial instruments classified as equity instruments by the Company as the issuer if related
dividend payments are deductible for enterprise income tax purposes under tax regulations the
Company recognizes the related income tax impact when recognizing dividends payable. The income
tax impact of dividends is included in current profit or loss if the distributed profits originate from
transactions or events that previously generated profit or loss; if the distributed profits originate from
transactions or events previously recognized in owners’ equity the income tax impact is included in
owners’ equity.
(4) Basis for presenting deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities on a net basis
The Company presents deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities on a net basis
only if both of the following conditions are met:
* The Company has a legal right to settle current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities
on a net basis;
* The deferred income tax assets and liabilities are related to income tax levied by the same tax
authority on the same taxable entity or on different taxable entities but in each future period of
significance when the deferred tax assets and liabilities reverse the relevant taxable entities intend to
settle current income tax assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize assets and settle liabilities
simultaneously.
35.Lease
(1) Lease identification
At the contract commencement date the Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease.A contract is or contains a lease if one party to the contract transfers the right to control the use of one
or more identified assets for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To determine whether a
contract transfers the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time the Company
evaluates whether the customer in the contract has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic
benefits from using the identified asset during the period and has the right to direct the use of the
161 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
identified asset during that period.
(2) Identification of separate leases
If a contract contains multiple separate leases the Company separates the contract and applies
accounting treatment to each separate lease individually. A right to use an identified asset constitutes a
separate lease in the contract if both of the following conditions are met: * the lessee can benefit
from using the asset either on its own or together with other readily available resources; * the asset
is not highly dependent on or highly interrelated with other assets in the contract.
(3) Accounting treatment for lease modifications
* Lease modifications accounted for as a separate lease
A lease modification is accounted for as a separate lease if both of the following conditions are met: A.The modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more additional
assets; B. The additional consideration for the modification is commensurate with the stand-alone price
for the increase in scope adjusted for the specific circumstances of the contract.* Lease modifications not accounted for as a separate lease
A. The Company as lessee
On the effective date of the lease modification the Company re-determines the lease term and
remeasures the lease liability by discounting the modified lease payments using a revised discount rate.When calculating the present value of the modified lease payments the interest rate implicit in the
lease for the remaining lease term is used as the discount rate; if the implicit interest rate cannot be
determined the incremental borrowing rate at the effective date of the modification is used.The impact of the above adjustment to the lease liability is accounted for as follows:
If the lease modification reduces the lease scope or shortens the lease term the carrying amount of the
right-of-use asset is reduced and any gain or loss arising from the partial or full termination of the lease
is recognized in current profit or loss;
For other lease modifications the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is adjusted accordingly.B. The Company as lessor
For modifications to operating leases the Company accounts for the modification as a new lease from
the effective date with any prepaid or accrued lease payments related to the original lease treated as
payments for the new lease.For modifications to finance leases that are not accounted for as a separate lease the Company
accounts for the modified lease as follows: If the modification would have resulted in a classification as
an operating lease had it been in effect at the lease commencement date the Company accounts for
the modification as a new lease from the effective date with the lease investment net before the
modification recognized as the carrying amount of the leased asset; if the modification would have
resulted in a classification as a finance lease had it been in effect at the lease commencement date the
Company accounts for the modification in accordance with the provisions for contract modifications or
162 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
renegotiations.
(4) Sale and leaseback
The Company assesses whether the asset transfer in a sale and leaseback transaction qualifies as a sale
in accordance with Note V-31.The Company as seller (lessee)
If the asset transfer does not qualify as a sale the Company continues to recognize the transferred
asset recognizes a financial liability equal to the transfer proceeds and accounts for the financial
liability in accordance with Note V-11.If the asset transfer qualifies as a sale the Company measures the right-of-use asset arising from the
leaseback based on the portion of the original asset’s carrying amount attributable to the right of use
retained and recognizes gains or losses only to the extent of the rights transferred to the lessor.The Company as buyer (lessor)
If the asset transfer does not qualify as a sale the Company does not recognize the transferred asset
recognizes a financial asset equal to the transfer proceeds and accounts for the financial asset in
accordance with Note V-11.If the asset transfer qualifies as a sale the Company accounts for the asset purchase in accordance with
other applicable accounting standards and accounts for the lease in accordance with the relevant
provisions.Accounting treatment for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets as a lessee
At the lease commencement date the Company classifies leases with a lease term of 12 months or less
and no purchase option as short-term leases; leases of a single asset that is of low value when new are
classified as leases of low-value assets. If the Company subleases or expects to sublease a leased asset
the original lease is not classified as a lease of a low-value asset.For all short-term leases and leases of low-value assets the Company recognizes lease payments as an
expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.Except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets accounted for using the simplified method
the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date.* Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is the lessee’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term.At the lease commencement date the right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost which includes:
The initial measurement amount of the lease liability;
Lease payments made on or before the lease commencement date less any lease incentives received;
Initial direct costs incurred by the lessee;
Estimated costs to be incurred by the lessee to dismantle and remove the underlying asset restore the
site on which it is located or restore the underlying asset to the condition required by the lease terms.These costs are recognized and measured in accordance with the provisions for provisions (see Note
163 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
V-29). Costs incurred for the production of inventories are included in the cost of inventories.Depreciation of right-of-use assets is calculated using the straight-line method by category. If it is
reasonably certain that the lessee will obtain ownership of the underlying asset by the end of the lease
term depreciation is calculated over the estimated remaining useful life of the underlying asset based
on the right-of-use asset category and estimated residual value rate; otherwise depreciation is
calculated over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated remaining useful life of the right-of-use
asset based on the right-of-use asset category.The depreciation methods estimated useful lives residual value rates and annual depreciation rates by
category of right-of-use assets are as follows:
Depreciation Estimated useful
Category Residual rates (%) Annual depreciation rates %
method life (year)
straight‐line
Housing & Buildings 5-20 0 5.00-20.00
method
straight‐line
Equipment 2-20 0 5.00-50.00
method
straight‐line
Land 5-40 0 2.50-20.00

Accounting treatment for leases as a lessor
At the lease commencement date the Company classifies a lease as a finance lease if it transfers
substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset; all other leases
are classified as operating leases.* Operating leases
Rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial
direct costs are capitalized and amortized on the same basis as rental income recognized in current
profit or loss over the lease term. Variable lease payments from operating leases that are not included
in the measurement of lease receivables are recognized in current profit or loss when incurred.* Finance leases
At the lease commencement date the Company recognizes a finance lease receivable at the net
investment in the lease (the sum of the present value of lease payments not yet received at the lease
commencement date and unguaranteed residual value discounted using the interest rate implicit in
the lease) and derecognizes the leased asset. Interest income is recognized in each period during the
lease term using the interest rate implicit in the lease.Variable lease payments from finance leases that are not included in the measurement of the net
investment in the lease are recognized in current profit or loss when incurred.
36.Other significant accounting policies and accounting estimates
Accounting of hedging
(1) Classification of hedges
The Company classifies hedges into fair value hedges cash flow hedges and net investment hedges in
164 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
overseas operations.* Fair value hedge. It refers to hedging activities conducted to mitigate the risk of changes in the fair
value of recognized assets or liabilities unrecognized firm commitments or components of the
aforementioned items. The fair value changes are caused by specific risks that will impact the
Company's profit or other comprehensive income.* Cash flow hedge refers to the hedging of cash flow risk. The change in cash flow is derived from
specific risks associated with recognized assets or liabilities expected transactions that are likely to
occur or components of the above-mentioned items and will affect the enterprise's profit or loss.* Net investment hedge in overseas operations refers to the hedging of the foreign exchange risk
exposure of net investments in overseas operations. The hedged risk in a net investment hedge in
overseas operations refers to the translation difference between the functional currency of the
overseas operation and that of the parent company.
(2) Hedging instruments and hedged items
Hedging instruments are financial instruments designated by the Company for hedging whose changes
in fair value or cash flows are expected to offset changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged
items. They include:
* Derivative instruments measured at fair value with changes recognized in current profit or loss
except for written options. A written option may be used as a hedging instrument only when hedging a
purchased option (including a purchased option embedded in a hybrid contract). Derivatives embedded
in a hybrid contract that are not separated cannot be used as separate hedging instruments.* Non-derivative financial assets or non-derivative financial liabilities measured at fair value with
changes recognized in current profit or loss except for financial liabilities designated as measured at
fair value with changes recognized in current profit or loss and whose fair value changes due to changes
in their own credit risk are recognized in other comprehensive income.An entity's own equity instruments are not financial assets or financial liabilities and cannot be used as
hedging instruments.A hedged item is an item that exposes the Company to the risk of changes in fair value or cash flows is
designated as the hedged object and can be reliably measured. The Company designates the following
individual items combinations of items or components thereof as hedged items:
* Recognized assets or liabilities.* Unrecognized firm commitments. A firm commitment is a legally binding agreement to exchange a
specific quantity of resources at an agreed price on a specific future date or period.* Highly probable expected transactions. An expected transaction is a transaction that is not yet
committed but is expected to occur.* Net investments in overseas operations.The above-mentioned components of an item are parts that are less than the overall changes in fair
165 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
value or cash flows of the item. The Company designates the following components of an item or
combinations thereof as hedged items:
* The portion of the overall changes in fair value or cash flows of an item that is attributable to one or
more specific risks (risk components). Based on assessment in a specific market environment the risk
component shall be separately identifiable and reliably measurable. Risk components also include
portions where changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item are only above or below a
specific price or other variable.* One or more selected contractual cash flows.* Components of the nominal amount of an item i.e. specific portions of the overall amount or
quantity of the item which may be a certain proportion of the whole item or a specific tranche of the
whole item. If a tranche includes an early repayment right whose fair value is affected by changes in the
hedged risk such tranche shall not be designated as a hedged item in a fair value hedge unless the
effect of the early repayment right is included when measuring the fair value of the hedged item.
(3) Evaluation of hedging relationship
At the inception of a hedging relationship the Company formally designates the hedging relationship
and prepares a formal written document specifying the hedging relationship risk management
objectives and risk management strategies. This document sets out the hedging instruments hedged
items the nature of the hedged risk and the Company's method for assessing hedge effectiveness.Hedge effectiveness is the degree to which changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedging
instrument offset changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item attributable to the hedged
risk. Such hedges are continuously evaluated on and after the initial designation date to ensure they
meet the requirements for hedge effectiveness.The Company discontinues hedge accounting when the hedging instrument expires is sold terminated
or exercised (excluding renewals or replacements that are part of the hedging strategy which are not
treated as expirations or terminations) or when changes in risk management objectives result in the
hedging relationship no longer meeting the risk management objectives or the economic relationship
between the hedged item and the hedging instrument ceases to exist or credit risk begins to dominate
the value changes arising from the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging
instrument or the hedge no longer meets other conditions for hedge accounting.If a hedging relationship no longer meets the requirements for hedge effectiveness due to the hedge
ratio but the risk management objective for which the hedging relationship was designated remains
unchanged the Company rebalances the hedging relationship.
(4) Recognition and measurement
If the conditions for applying hedge accounting are met the following treatments apply:
* Fair value hedge
Gains or losses from hedging instruments are recognized in current profit or loss. If hedging a
166 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
designated non-trading equity instrument investment (or component thereof) measured at fair value
with changes recognized in other comprehensive income gains or losses from the hedging instrument
are recognized in other comprehensive income. Gains or losses on the hedged item arising from the
hedged risk are recognized in current profit or loss with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying
amount of the recognized hedged item not measured at fair value. If the hedged item is a designated
non-trading equity instrument investment (or component thereof) measured at fair value with changes
recognized in other comprehensive income gains or losses arising from the hedged risk are recognized
in other comprehensive income and no adjustment is needed as its carrying amount is already
measured at fair value.For fair value hedges of financial instruments (or components thereof) measured at amortized cost
adjustments to the carrying amount of the hedged item are amortized using the effective interest rate
recalculated from the commencement of amortization and recognized in current profit or loss. The
amortization shall start from the adjustment date and shall not be later than the date when
adjustments for hedge gains or losses cease for the hedged item. For hedged items that are financial
assets (or components thereof) measured at fair value with changes recognized in other
comprehensive income cumulative recognized hedge gains or losses are amortized in the same manner
and recognized in current profit or loss without adjusting the carrying amount of the financial asset (or
component thereof).For a hedged item that is an unrecognized firm commitment (or component thereof) cumulative
changes in fair value attributable to the hedged risk after designation of the hedging relationship are
recognized as an asset or liability with related gains or losses recognized in current profit or loss. When
the firm commitment is fulfilled to acquire an asset or assume a liability the initial recognition amount
of the asset or liability is adjusted to include the cumulative changes in fair value of the designated
hedged item.* Cash flow hedge
The effective portion of gains or losses on the hedging instrument is recognized in other comprehensive
income as a cash flow hedge reserve; the ineffective portion (i.e. other gains or losses after deducting
those recognized in other comprehensive income) is recognized in current profit or loss. The amount of
the cash flow hedge reserve is determined as the lower of the absolute amounts of: * cumulative
gains or losses on the hedging instrument since the inception of the hedge; * cumulative changes in
the present value of expected future cash flows of the hedged item since the inception of the hedge
If the hedged expected transaction is subsequently recognized as a non-financial asset or non-financial
liability or forms a firm commitment accounted for as a fair value hedge the cash flow hedge reserve
previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to the initial recognition amount of
the asset or liability. For other cash flow hedges the cash flow hedge reserve recognized in other
comprehensive income is reclassified to current profit or loss in the same period when the hedged
167 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
expected cash flows affect profit or loss (e.g. when expected sales occur).* Net investment hedge in overseas operations
For hedges of net investments in overseas operations the effective portion of gains or losses on the
hedging instrument is recognized directly in other comprehensive income; the ineffective portion is
recognized in current profit or loss. When the overseas operation is disposed of the gains or losses on
the hedging instrument reflected in other comprehensive income are reclassified to current profit or
loss.

38.Others
(1) Measurement of fair value
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date.The Company measures the fair value of relevant assets or liabilities using prices from the principal
market. In the absence of a principal market the Company uses prices from the most advantageous
market. The Company applies assumptions that market participants would use to maximize their
economic benefits when pricing the asset or liability.The principal market is the market with the highest volume and level of activity for the relevant asset or
liability. The most advantageous market is the market that maximizes the amount received from selling
168 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
the asset or minimizes the amount paid to transfer the liability after considering transaction costs and
transportation costs.For financial assets or liabilities with an active market the Company determines their fair value using
quoted prices in such markets. For financial instruments without an active market the Company uses
valuation techniques to determine their fair value.When measuring non-financial assets at fair value the Company considers the ability of market
participants to generate economic benefits by using the asset for its highest and best use or by selling
it to other market participants who would use it for that purpose.* Valuation techniques
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the current circumstances and
supported by sufficient available data and information. The primary valuation techniques used include
the market approach income approach and cost approach. The Company measures fair value using
methods consistent with one or more of these techniques. When multiple valuation techniques are
used the Company evaluates the reasonableness of each result and selects the amount that best
represents fair value in the current circumstances.In applying valuation techniques the Company prioritizes relevant observable inputs. Unobservable
inputs are used only when observable inputs are unavailable or impracticable to obtain. Observable
inputs are those derived from market data reflecting assumptions that market participants would use
in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are those not derived from market data based on
the best available information about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the
asset or liability.* Fair value hierarchy
The Company classifies inputs used in fair value measurement into three levels prioritizing Level 1
inputs first followed by Level 2 and then Level 3. Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are observable inputs
(directly or indirectly) for the asset or liability other than Level 1 inputs. Level 3 inputs are
unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
(2) Share repurchases
* When the Company reduces its capital by repurchasing its own shares upon approval in accordance
with legal procedures it reduces share capital by the total par value of the canceled shares. The
difference between the repurchase price (including transaction costs) and the par value of the shares is
adjusted against equity: any excess over the total par value is deducted from capital surplus (share
premium) then from undistributed profit and finally from undistributed profits in that order; any
shortfall below the total par value is added to capital surplus (share premium).* Repurchased shares are accounted for as treasury shares until canceled or transferred with all
repurchase costs recognized as the cost of treasury shares.
169 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
* When treasury shares are transferred any portion of the transfer proceeds that exceeds the cost of
the treasury shares shall be credited to capital reserve (share premium). Any portion that is less than
the cost of the treasury shares shall be charged against capital reserve (share premium) surplus reserve
and undistributed profits in that order.
(3) Restricted Stock
Under the equity incentive plan the Company grants restricted shares to eligible participants who are
required to subscribe for the shares upfront. If the participants fail to meet the vesting conditions
specified in the plan the Company will repurchase the shares at a pre-agreed price. When restricted
shares issued to employees have completed the necessary registration and other capital increase
procedures in accordance with applicable regulations the Company recognizes share capital and capital
reserve (share premium) on the grant date based on the subscription proceeds received from
employees. Concurrently the Company recognizes treasury shares and a corresponding liability for the
repurchase obligation.VI.Tax

232 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
minimize risks associated with financial instruments to the greatest extent possible without unduly
compromising the Company’s competitiveness and flexibility.
1. Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a party to a financial instrument fails to fulfill its obligations resulting
in financial losses for the other party. The Company’s credit risk primarily arises from financial assets
such as monetary funds notes receivable accounts receivable financing of receivables other
receivables contract assets debt investments and long-term receivables. The credit risk of these
financial assets stems from counterparty default with the maximum exposure to credit risk equal to
the carrying amount of these instruments.The Company’s monetary funds are primarily deposited with financial institutions such as commercial
banks which the Company considers to have strong reputations and sound asset positions resulting in
low credit risk.For notes receivable accounts receivable financing of receivables other receivables contract assets
debt investments and long-term receivables the Company has established policies to control credit risk
exposure. The Company assesses customers’ creditworthiness based on their financial condition the
availability of guarantees from third parties credit history and other factors such as current market
conditions and sets appropriate credit periods. The Company regularly monitors customers’ credit
records; for customers with poor credit records it adopts measures such as written reminders
shortening credit periods or canceling credit periods to ensure that its overall credit risk remains
controllable.A. Criteria for assessing significant increases in credit risk
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether the credit risk of relevant financial
instruments has significantly increased since initial recognition. When making this assessment the
Company considers reasonable and supportable information obtainable without incurring undue cost
or effort including qualitative and quantitative analysis based on its historical data external credit
ratings and forward-looking information. The Company evaluates financial instruments on an individual
basis or in portfolios with similar credit risk characteristics comparing the risk of default at the balance
sheet date with that at initial recognition to determine changes in the expected default risk over the
instrument’s lifetime.The Company deems a significant increase in credit risk to have occurred when one or more
quantitative or qualitative criteria are triggered: the quantitative criterion is primarily a specified
threshold increase in the probability of default over the remaining life at the reporting date compared
to initial recognition; qualitative criteria include significant adverse changes in the debtor’s operating or
financial condition placement on a watch list etc.B. Definition of credit-impaired assets
To determine whether credit impairment has occurred the Company uses criteria consistent with its
233 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
internal credit risk management objectives for the relevant financial instruments considering both
quantitative and qualitative indicators.When assessing whether a debtor has suffered credit impairment the Company primarily considers the
following factors: the issuer or debtor is experiencing significant financial difficulties; the debtor has
breached the contract (e.g. defaulting on or being overdue in paying interest or principal); the creditor
has granted concessions to the debtor that would not otherwise be made due to economic or
contractual considerations related to the debtor’s financial difficulties; the debtor is likely to file for
bankruptcy or undergo other financial restructuring; the active market for the financial asset has
ceased to exist due to the issuer’s or debtor’s financial difficulties; a financial asset was purchased or
originated at a significant discount that reflects the occurrence of credit losses.Credit impairment of a financial asset may result from the combined effect of multiple events rather
than a single identifiable event.C. Parameters for measuring expected credit losses
Depending on whether credit risk has significantly increased and whether credit impairment has
occurred the Company measures impairment provisions for different assets based on either 12-month
or lifetime expected credit losses. Key parameters for measuring expected credit losses include
probability of default loss given default and exposure at default. The Company has developed models
for these parameters based on quantitative analysis of historical data (e.g. counterparty ratings types
of guarantees and collateral repayment methods) and forward-looking information.Relevant definitions are as follows:
Probability of default: The likelihood that a debtor will fail to fulfill its repayment obligations over the
next 12 months or the remaining lifetime of the asset.Loss given default: The Company’s estimate of the extent of loss from exposure to default varying by
counterparty type recourse method and priority and collateral type. It is expressed as a percentage of
the exposure lost at default calculated over a 12-month period or the asset’s lifetime.Exposure at default: The amount the Company is entitled to receive in the event of default over the
next 12 months or the asset’s remaining lifetime. Assessments of significant increases in credit risk and
calculations of expected credit losses both incorporate forward-looking information. The Company
identifies key economic indicators affecting credit risk and expected credit losses for each business type
through historical data analysis.The maximum credit risk exposure borne by the Company is the carrying amount of each financial asset
in the balance sheet. The Company has not provided any other guarantees that could expose it to credit
risk.Among the Company’s accounts receivable the top five customers account for 12.48% of total
receivables; among other receivables the top five counterparties by outstanding amount account for
48.18% of total other receivables.
234 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
2. Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to the risk of insufficient funds when fulfilling obligations settled by delivering cash
or other financial assets. The Company centralizes cash management across its subsidiaries including
short-term investment of surplus cash and arranging loans to meet projected cash needs. Its policy is to
regularly monitor short- and long-term working capital requirements and compliance with loan
agreements to ensure adequate cash reserves and readily realizable marketable securities are
maintained.As of December 31 2024 the maturity of the Company's financial liabilities is as follows:

3. Market risk
A. Foreign exchange risk
The Company’s foreign exchange risk primarily arises from foreign currency-denominated assets and
liabilities held by the Company and its subsidiaries that are not in their respective functional currencies.The Company’s exposure to foreign exchange risk is mainly related to amounts denominated in Hong
Kong dollars and US dollars. Except for the Company’s Singapore-based subsidiary which uses US
dollars RMB or Singapore dollars for pricing and settlement the Company’s other core operations are
priced and settled in RMB.The Company closely monitors the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on its foreign exchange risk. To
date the Company has not adopted any measures to mitigate foreign exchange risk. However
management is responsible for monitoring such risk and will consider hedging material foreign
exchange exposures when necessary.B. Interest rate risk
The Company’s interest rate risk primarily stems from long-term interest-bearing liabilities such as
long-term bank borrowings and bonds payable. Floating-rate financial liabilities expose the Company to
cash flow interest rate risk while fixed-rate financial liabilities expose it to fair value interest rate risk.The Company determines the relative proportion of fixed and floating-rate contracts based on
prevailing market conditions.The finance department at the Company’s headquarters continuously monitors interest rate levels
across the group. A rise in interest rates would increase the cost of new interest-bearing liabilities and
235 / 263Wellhope Foods Co. Ltd. 2024 Annual Report
the interest expense on outstanding floating-rate interest-bearing liabilities which could have a
material adverse impact on the Company’s financial performance. Management will make timely
adjustments in response to the latest market conditions.XIII.Disclosure of Fair Value

and non-continuing measurements
For financial instruments traded in active markets the Company measures them using unadjusted
quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets as of the balance sheet date.
3.Valuation method and qualitative and quantitative information about significant inputs for items
measured at fair value (Level 3) for both continuing and non-continuing measurements
The Company’s investments in other equity instruments represent equity investments over which the
Company has no control joint control or significant influence and for which there are no quoted prices
in active markets. These investments are measured based on the Company’s reasonable estimates
which incorporate the cost of investment and the operating performance of the investee.
4.Other
For financial instruments traded in active markets the Company determines their fair value using
quoted prices in such active markets. For financial instruments not traded in active markets the
Company uses valuation techniques to determine their fair value. The primary valuation models used
include discounted cash flow models and market comparable company models. Inputs to these
valuation techniques mainly include risk-free rates benchmark interest rates exchange rates credit
spreads liquidity premiums and illiquidity discounts.XIV.Related Party and Transaction
