of performing independent operation of business in the market. For R&D model the Company has an

design product mold to brand image design incorporating trend- theme and experience-oriented R&D

model to develop new products with a comprehensive categories approach based on consumer insight.For manufacturing model the Company uses the brand manufacturing model that features sales-driven

production in-house and OEM outsourcing. The Company has an independent system from raw material

procurement to manufacturing and selling and has established its brands in the market. We have the

advantages from participating in the whole value chain from design research and developing

manufacturing and selling stationery. For sales model based on features of stationery products and

current situations of stationery consumption at home and abroad the Company has developed its sales

model that relies on regional distributors complemented by direct sales to offices 2B customers

direct-sale store KA sales online sales as well as international distribution. We are the one of leading

companies in China’s stationery business that engage in large-scale brand sales management and

franchise management. In addition to operations on platforms such as Tmall JD and Pinduoduo M&G

Technologies also conducts live streaming on platforms such as Douyin and Kuaishou through its own

live streaming room or cooperation with KOLs on the platforms. M&G Technologies is also responsible

for online full platform marketing and management of authorized online stores.M&G large retail store businesses include two store types: Jiumu Store and M&G Life. Targeting

female consumers aged 15-29 Jiumu Store primarily sells stationery cultural and recreative products

educational and entertainment products and daily household and home products. Jiumu Stores are

mostly located in high-quality shopping malls in prime urban districts. Jiumu Store represents the

Company’s ongoing exploration in new retail model in lifestyle products with a distinct cultural element.Jiumu Store started franchising in July 2018 where franchisees pay contract deposit and decoration fee

according to contracts and store rent store staff salary utilities and other costs incurred in franchising

labor protection supplies and industrial supplies. By shortening the supply chain it provides customers

13 / 233Annual Report 2025

with cost-effective digital procurement solutions for various scenarios and customized value-added

services.With changing demographics of China in particular the decreasing birth rate it becomes

increasingly difficult to achieve revenue growth from unit volume growth in the future and stationery

industry growth is increasingly driven by consumption upgrade and product upgrade. The Company’s

core traditional businesses are challenged with demands from more individualized population born after

2000 and 2010. Stationery consumption in China is becoming more brand conscious innovative

individualized and more premium. There is a clear growth in demand for better cultural and creative

products which accelerates industry transformation towards one with more cultural and creative

elements. M&G Technologies reflects channel diversification trend and helps the Company’s

omni-channel strategy by expansion of online business. Jiumu Store serves as the Company’s

bridgehead to continue products and channels upgrading of its core traditional business and it plays an

important role in promoting the Company’s brands and products upgrade. Colipu Group meets the

purchasing demands for office supplies of corporations and institutions which helps boost the sales of

writing instruments and office stationery in the Company’s core traditional business.

3. Major driver for revenue growth

subsidies and fee reductions as well as a favorable policy context for the development of the cultural

industry encourage and promote the integrated development of the cultural industry and upstream and

downstream industries invigorate economic transformation and social development and drive the

steady development of the stationery industry. A series of national policies on the centralized

procurement industry have been promulgated rapid progress was made in centralized procurement of

large- and medium-sized enterprises the transparency of procurement information and the competitive

mechanism of centralized procurement promoted the concentration of office supplies industry and

promoted the vigorous development of direct office supplies industry.Driven by market forceWith the changes in the way of life and consumption habit of consumers the mix of “peopleproduct and place” in retail industry has been reconstructed sales channels have become more

diversified and channel upgrades and channel competition have become increasingly fierce. As the

domestic market demand for mid- to high-end stationery products keeps increasing this provides

opportunities for mid- to high-end stationery products. China’s population of 1.4 billion accounts for

about 18% of global population while leading stationery companies in China can continue to mostly

rely on the huge domestic market they also have room for international expansion in international

markets which could reinforce each other under favorable conditions.Driven by industry integration

With continued development in the market market concentration of stationery industry becomes

greater leaving more room for industry consolidation. Leading companies in the stationery industry with

good brand recognition are in a strong position and more market share is gained by leading companies.Through mergers and acquisitions of high-quality targets at home and abroad the Company further

II. Industry Situation of the Company during the Reporting Period

1. Industry situation of the Company

According to Industrial Classification and Codes for National Economic Activities (GB/T

4754-2017) issued by the National Bureau of Statistics the Company is classified to stationery arts

sports and entertainment products industry in the manufacturing sector. The Company is a member of

China Stationery & Sporting Goods Association and China Writing Instrument Association.In 2025 China’s sports and stationery goods industry generally maintained stable operations

against the backdrop of an increasingly complex external environment and a slower pace of recovery in

domestic demand. The industry’s resilience further emerged but structural contradictions such as

pressure on profits homogenized product competition and fluctuations in external demand remained

prominent. The Executive Meeting of the State Council emphasized the need to strengthen the domestic

economic cycle and promote the continued release of domestic demand potential providing policy

guidance for the industry to tap incremental opportunities in cultural consumption health consumption

and education consumption.China encourages art education and quality education for students deepens the integration of sports

and education and promotes the healthy development of teenagers. The Ministry of Education has

launched the Aesthetic Education Infiltration Action in schools which brings about new development

opportunities for painting and calligraphy supplies educational books cultural and creative student

supplies and digital and intelligent stationery. Five departments including the Ministry of Education

jointly issued the Opinion on Implementing the Student Physical Fitness Improvement Plan. Coupled

with the policy orientation of integrating sports and education as well as the development of campus

sports this has created new market space for teenagers’ sports equipment and training aids tailored to

campus physical exercise scenarios.According to the China Public Procurement Development Report (2024) compiled and released by

China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing the scale of public procurement transactions in China in

2024 amounted to RMB45 trillion. With the accelerated development of China’s unified public resource

trading platforms the market for public resource transactions has been increasing centralization in

trading regulation and data management. In the broader context of the digital economy digitalization

e-commerce and centralized procurement have become the main forms of public resource transactions

from central to local governments. These practices began with transparent procurement by government

agencies central and state-owned enterprises (“SOEs”) and financial institutions are gradually

extending to large private enterprises and local SOEs. The government continues to strengthen its

commitment to green procurement expanding both the scope and scale of green product purchasing and

is incorporating carbon footprint requirements into government procurement criteria in a timely manner.

2. Industry features

(1) Periodicity

Writing instruments student stationery and office supplies are less affected by economic

fluctuations. With low unit price writing instruments and student stationery are more of necessity goods

with relatively low income elasticity relatively less sensitive to economic fluctuations.

(2) Seasonality

There is seasonality in the demand for student stationery. Months before a new semester (summer

and winter vacation) is what the stationery industry calls “schooling peak season” during which sales of

3. Development trend of the industry

With the changes in the way of life and consumption habit of consumers China’s retail industry

entered a new stage of redevelopment and innovation. Stationery industry faces challenges with

uncertainty of external environment diversification of retail channels and more individualized demands

from main customers group (now being the post-00s and post-10s). With the changing demographics of

China in particular the decreasing birth rate stationery industry revenue growth comes less from by unit

volume growth and more from consumption upgrade and product upgrade. Domestic consumption for

stationery in China becomes more brand conscious innovative IP-oriented individualized and more

15 / 233Annual Report 2025

premium. There is a growing demand for premium cultural and creative products driving the industry to

transform from functional satisfaction to value consumption. Demand for mid-to-high-end products that

combine aesthetic design cultural connotations and quality has continued to rise providing broad

opportunities for high-quality enterprises that emphasize the integrated capabilities of R&D design

branding and supply chain management.Sales channels for stationery in the domestic market are continuously expanding and improving.Traditional retail stationery shops nearby school are still the dominant channel for China’s stationery

industry and shares of other retail formats are increasing faster. Sales terminals and channels of the

industry are becoming more diversified upgrading and competition in channels becomes more obvious.With the popularity of the Internet smart phones and online transactions people’s consumption habits

and consumption scenarios have changed. New-generation marketing means are becoming more

diversified including online media platforms (such as Weibo WeChat Xiaohongshu and Douyin) and

IP topic creation which further tests enterprises’ ability to make quick response to industry trends.Compared with small- and medium-sized enterprises leading enterprises boast stronger and richer whole

network marketing and operation capabilities. They formulate refined marketing strategies by city to

reach consumers. In addition to online traffic offline channels are also required to realize refined

management by empowering channels through organizational reform and information system.According to the National Bureau of Statistics online retail sales across the country recorded RMB15.9

trillion in 2025 an increase of 8.6%. Outstanding companies in the consumer industry seized the

development opportunities of online consumption and achieved continuous sales growth through online

and offline integration.The new generation of young people has become a major force in driving new consumption. The

consumption concepts of the youth group are changing shifting from material fulfillment to emotional

resonance and from standardized supply to personalized customizationfrom. With the shift from a focus

on the practicality of goods to an increasing emphasis on the emotional value of consumption they are

more eager to achieve emotional resonance and psychological satisfaction through their purchases.Emotional value has evolved from an added consumption benefit into a core factor influencing

consumption decisions among contemporary young consumers who seek more than just emotional

value and cultural connection from IP collaborations but also see consumption as a way to express their

identity and engage with communities built around shared interests. They value the sense of joy

belonging and companionship that products bring. What they purchase is not just stationery but a

vehicle for emotion and self-expression. ACGN and cultural and creative merchandise have already

broken through traditional boundaries reflecting youth consumers’ recognition of excellent cultural

works such as animation and comics. This trend reflects a shift in consumption demand from

“pragmatism” to “emotional value”.With continued development in the stationery industry there could be higher industry consolidation

and leading companies could gain larger market shares. China’s population of 1.4 billion accounts for

about 18% of global population while leading stationery companies in China can continue to mostly

rely on the huge domestic market they also have room for international expansion in international

markets which could reinforce each other under favorable conditions. The global influence of Chinese

culture continues to rise. Not only do domestic consumers seek emotional resonance by purchasing

“Chinese trend” products but overseas consumers are also beginning to embrace Chinese elements

showing a positive outlook on Chinese goods.In the broader context of the digital economy China’s public procurement sector has made

significant progress in digitalization e-commerce and centralized procurement driven by favorable

factors such as supportive policies the rapid expansion of centralized procurement by large- and

medium-sized enterprises and increased competition among various digital procurement service

providers.These forms of procurement have become the main form of public resource transactions from

central to local governments. According to the 2025 Smart Procurement Supply Chain Development

Report released by the China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing the total procurement amount for

enterprises reached RMB188.3 trillion in 2024 an increase of 7.3%. Among this the total amount of

digitalized procurement accounted for RMB21.7 trillion an increase of 16.2% with a penetration rate of

11.5% up by 0.9% from 2023. According to Ebrun Think Tank analysis the growth in digital

procurement penetration is driven by two key factors. First continued policy support: governments at all

levels have introduced targeted digital transformation initiatives that provide clear guidance and

financial incentives for adopting digital procurement. Second technological advancement: the deeper

application of big data and AI not only streamlines procurement processes but also significantly

16 / 233Annual Report 2025

improves efficiency through features such as intelligent matching and automated approvals. As supply

chain digitalization accelerates digital procurement is expected to play an increasingly important role in

helping enterprises reduce costs and improve operational efficiency. More than 70 central enterprises

have established online stores with a clear trend of product diversification. In addition to office supplies

and industrial products these procurement e-commerce platforms are expanding into production

materials and engineering equipment.With the further development and application of information technology data have become a new

production element. Recommendations of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China for

Formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development call for upgrading

and optimizing traditional industries advancing the quality and transformation of key sectors promoting

technological upgrading and accelerating the digital and intelligent transformation of manufacturing. It

also emphasizes the development of intelligent manufacturing green manufacturing and service-oriented

manufacturing while speeding up changes in industrial models and corporate organizational structures.The investment in the manufacturing industry has shifted from the investment in equipment and

assembly lines to the transformation of digital processes and digital transformation of products in a bid

to apply digital technology to reduce channel costs and management costs and become a digital-driven

modern enterprise.The future of stationery products will be shaped by personalization smart functionality and

sustainability. As the new generation of consumers expresses stronger individuality and more diverse

needs personalized stationery is gaining increasing popularity. At the same time advances in technology

are bringing intelligent features deeper into learning and office scenarios. Intelligent stationery enables

users to complete tasks more efficiently while offering support for learning and personalized guidance.Influenced by national policies and a shifting social landscape consumers are also paying closer

VI. Discussion and Analysis on Future Development of the Company

(I) Industry pattern and trend

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

With the changes in the way of life and consumption habit of consumers China’s retail industry

entered a new stage of redevelopment and innovation. Stationery industry faces challenges with

uncertainty of external environment diversification of retail channels and more individualized demands

from main customers group (now being the post-00s and post-10s). With the changing demographics of

China in particular the decreasing birth rate stationery industry revenue growth comes less from by unit

volume growth and more from consumption upgrade and product upgrade. Domestic consumption for

stationery in China becomes more brand conscious innovative IP-oriented individualized and more

premium. There is a growing demand for premium cultural and creative products driving the industry to

transform from functional satisfaction to value consumption. Demand for mid-to-high-end products that

combine aesthetic design cultural connotations and quality has continued to rise providing broad

opportunities for high-quality enterprises that emphasize the integrated capabilities of R&D design

branding and supply chain management.Sales channels for stationery in the domestic market are continuously expanding and improving.Traditional retail stationery shops nearby school are still the dominant channel for China’s stationery

industry and shares of other retail formats are increasing faster. Sales terminals and channels of the

industry are becoming more diversified upgrading and competition in channels becomes more obvious.With the popularity of the Internet smart phones and online transactions people’s consumption habits

and consumption scenarios have changed. New-generation marketing means are becoming more

diversified including online media platforms (such as Weibo WeChat Xiaohongshu and Douyin) and

IP topic creation which further tests enterprises’ ability to make quick response to industry trends.Compared with small- and medium-sized enterprises leading enterprises boast stronger and richer whole

network marketing and operation capabilities. They formulate refined marketing strategies by city to

reach consumers. In addition to online traffic offline channels are also required to realize refined

management by empowering channels through organizational reform and information system.According to the National Bureau of Statistics online retail sales across the country recorded RMB15.9

trillion in 2025 an increase of 8.6%. Outstanding companies in the consumer industry seized the

development opportunities of online consumption and achieved continuous sales growth through online

and offline integration.The new generation of young people has become a major force in driving new consumption. The

consumption concepts of the youth group are changing shifting from material fulfillment to emotional

resonance and from standardized supply to personalized customizationfrom. With the shift from a focus

on the practicality of goods to an increasing emphasis on the emotional value of consumption they are

more eager to achieve emotional resonance and psychological satisfaction through their purchases.Emotional value has evolved from an added consumption benefit into a core factor influencing

consumption decisions among contemporary young consumers who seek more than just emotional

value and cultural connection from IP collaborations but also see consumption as a way to express their

identity and engage with communities built around shared interests. They value the sense of joy

belonging and companionship that products bring. What they purchase is not just stationery but a

vehicle for emotion and self-expression. ACGN and cultural and creative merchandise have already

broken through traditional boundaries reflecting youth consumers’ recognition of excellent cultural

works such as animation and comics. This trend reflects a shift in consumption demand from

“pragmatism” to “emotional value”.With continued development in the stationery industry there could be higher industry consolidation

and leading companies could gain larger market shares. China’s population of 1.4 billion accounts for

about 18% of global population while leading stationery companies in China can continue to mostly

rely on the huge domestic market they also have room for international expansion in international

markets which could reinforce each other under favorable conditions. The global influence of Chinese

culture continues to rise. Not only do domestic consumers seek emotional resonance by purchasing

“Chinese trend” products but overseas consumers are also beginning to embrace Chinese elements

showing a positive outlook on Chinese goods.In the context of the digital economy thanks to favorable factors such as policy driving the rapid

advancement of centralized procurement by large- and medium-sized enterprises and the competition

among various digital procurement service providers great progress has been made in the digitalization

41 / 233Annual Report 2025

e-commerce and centralization of public procurement in China which have become the main form of

public resource transactions from central to local governments. According to the 2025 Smart

Procurement Supply Chain Development Report released by the China Federation of Logistics &

Purchasing the total procurement amount for enterprises nationwide reached RMB188.3 trillion in 2024

an increase of 7.3%. Among this the total amount of digitalized procurement was RMB21.7 trillion an

increase of 16.2% with a penetration rate increasing to 11.5% up by 0.9 percentage point compared

with 2023. According to Ebrun Think Tank analysis the rise in penetration is driven by two key factors.First continued policy support with governments at all levels rolling out targeted digital transformation

initiatives that provide clear guidance and financial backing for the digital procurement of enterprises;

second the growing impact of technology as the deeper application of big data and AI not only

streamlines procurement processes but also significantly improves efficiency through features such as

intelligent matching and automated approvals. As supply chain digitalization accelerates digital

procurement is expected to play an even greater role in helping enterprises reduce costs and improve

efficiency. More than 70 central enterprises have established online stores with a clear trend of product

diversification. In addition to office supplies and industrial products the procurement e-commerce

platforms of central enterprises have expanded into the areas of production materials and engineering

equipment.With the further development and application of information technology data have become a new

production element. Recommendations of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China for

Formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development call for upgrading

and optimizing traditional industries advancing the quality and transformation of key sectors promoting

technological upgrading and accelerating the digital and intelligent transformation of manufacturing. It

also emphasizes the development of intelligent manufacturing green manufacturing and service-oriented

manufacturing while speeding up changes in industrial models and corporate organizational structures.The investment in the manufacturing industry has shifted from the investment in equipment and

assembly lines to the transformation of digital processes and digital transformation of products in a bid

to apply digital technology to reduce channel costs and management costs and become a digital-driven

modern enterprise.The future of stationery products will be shaped by personalization smart functionality and

sustainability. As the new generation of consumers expresses stronger individuality and more diverse

needs personalized stationery is gaining increasing popularity. At the same time advances in technology

are bringing intelligent features deeper into learning and office scenarios. Intelligent stationery enables

users to complete tasks more efficiently while offering support for learning and personalized guidance.Influenced by national policies and a shifting social landscape consumers are also paying closer

attention to product safety environmental impact and sustainability. As a result green environmental

and sustainable development has become a key direction for the future of the stationery industry.(II) Development strategy of the Company

consolidated and parent company’s financial position of M&G as at December 31 2025 and of its

consolidated and parent company’s operating results and cash flows for the year of 2025.II. Basis of Auditors’ Opinion

We have conducted our audit in accordance with the Chinese Auditing Standards for CertifiedPublic Accountants. The “Responsibilities of Certified Public Accountants for Auditing of FinancialStatements” in the auditor’s report further illustrate our responsibilities under those standards. In

accordance with China Registered Accountants Independence Standards No. 1 – Independence

Requirements for Financial Statement Audit and Review Engagements and the Code of Professional

Ethics of Chinese Certified Public Accountants we are independent of M&G and have performed other

responsibilities in respect of professional ethics. We have complied with the independence requirements

applicable to audits of public interest entities in our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have

obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.III. Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that in our professional judgment were of most significance in

our audit of the financial statements for the current period. These matters were addressed in the context

of our audit of the financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon we do not

provide a separate opinion on these matters.The key audit matters identified in our audit are summarized as follows:

The management of M&G (hereinafter referred to as the “management”) is responsible for the other

information which comprises all the information covered in M&G 2025 Annual Report other than the

financial statements and this auditor’s report.Our audit opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not

express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.In conjunction with our audit to the financial statements our responsibility is to read the other

information. During the process we considered whether there is material inconsistency or there is likely

material misstatement between the other information and the financial statements or the information we

obtained during the audit.

80 / 233Annual Report 2025

As we have performed the work on the other information obtained before the date of our auditor’s

report we shall report if we confirmed there was a material misstatement among the other information.We have nothing needed to be reported on this case.V. Responsibilities of the Management and Governing Bodies for the Financial Statements

The management shall be responsible for the preparation of financial statements in accordance with

the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises to enable them to be fairly reflected and to design

implement and maintain the necessary internal controls so that there is no material misstatement due to

fraud or error in the financial statements.In the preparation of the financial statements the management is responsible for assessing M&G’s

continuous operating capacity disclosing matters relating to continuous operations (if applicable) and

applying the continuing operating assumptions unless the management plans to perform liquidation

cease operation or otherwise has no realistic choice.The governing bodies are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of M&G.VI. Responsibilities of CPA for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objective is to obtain reasonable assurance of the financial statements as a whole whether there

is a material misstatement due to fraud or error and to issue an auditor’s report containing audit opinion.Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in

accordance with China Standards on Auditing will always detect a material 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 the auditing standards we exercised professional judgment

and maintained professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also performed the following works:

(1) to 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.

(2) to understand the internal control related to the audit to design the appropriate audit procedures.

(3)to evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting

estimates and related disclosures made by the management.

(4) to draw a conclusion on the appropriateness of the 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 ability of M&G to continue as a going

concern. If we conclude that a 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 M&G to cease to continue

as a going concern.

(5) to evaluate the overall presentation structure and content (including disclosure) of the financial

statements and to assess whether the financial statements reflect the related transactions and events

fairly.

(6) to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence of the financial information of the entity or

business activity of the M&G in order to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements.We are responsible for directing supervising and performing group audits. We take full responsibility

for the audit opinion.

81 / 233Annual Report 2025

We communicated with the governing bodies 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 the audit.We also provided a statement to management on compliance with ethical requirements related to

independence and communicated with governing bodies about all relationships and other matters that

may be reasonably considered to affect our independence as well as related precautions (if applicable).From the matters we had discussed with the governing bodies we confirmed which matters were

most important to the audit of the financial statements for the current period and thus constituted the key

audit matters. We set out these matters in the auditor’s report. Unless the disclosure of these matters are

forbidden by the laws and regulations or in rare cases if it is reasonably expected that the negative

impacts caused by discussing certain matters in the auditor’s report would be larger than the benefits for

public interest we shall not disclose the matters in the auditor’s report under such circumstances.BDO China Shu Lun Pan CPAs Chinese Certified Public Accountant:

6. Accounting treatments for business combination under or not under common control

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Business combination under common control: the assets and liabilities acquired by the Company in

business combination (including goodwill incurred in the acquisition of the acquiree by ultimate

controlling party) shall be measured at the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of the acquiree in

the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party at the date of combination. The

difference between the carrying amount of the net assets obtained and the carrying amount of the

consideration paid for the merger (or total nominal value of the issued shares) is adjusted to capital

premium in capital reserve. If the capital premium in capital reserve is not sufficient to offset the

difference the remaining balance is adjusted against retained earnings.Business combination not under common control: the cost of business combination is the fair value

of the assets paid by the acquirer to obtain the control right of the acquiree the liabilities incurred or

assumed and the equity securities issued at the date of purchase. Where the cost of business

combination is higher than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired from the acquiree in

business combination the Company shall recognize such difference as goodwill; where the cost of

business combination is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired from the acquiree

in business combination such difference shall be included in the current profit or loss. The identifiable

assets liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree obtained in the business combination that meet

the recognition conditions are measured at their fair values at the date of purchase.The direct expenses incurred in business combination shall be included the current profit or loss;

transaction costs associated with the issue of equity or debt securities for the business combination shall

be included in the initially recognized amounts of the equity or debt securities.

7. Control judgment criteria and preparation of consolidated financial statements

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

(1) Control judgment criteria

The consolidation scope of consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis of control

including the Company and all of its subsidiaries. The term “control” refers to the power held by the

Company over the invested enterprise through which the Company is capable of enjoying variable

return by participating in relevant activities of the invested enterprise and having the ability to influence

the amount of return via such control.

(2) Consolidation procedure

The Company regards the entire enterprise group as an accounting entity and prepares the

consolidated financial statements in accordance with unified accounting policies to reflect the overall

financial status operating results and cash flow of the enterprise group. The influence of internal

transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries and among the subsidiaries shall be offset. If

internal transactions indicate that the relevant assets have suffered impairment losses the losses shall be

fully recognized. In preparing the consolidated financial statements where the accounting policies and

the accounting periods are inconsistent between the Company and its subsidiaries the financial

statements of the subsidiaries are adjusted in accordance with the accounting policies and accounting

period of the Company.The owners’ equity the net profit or loss and the comprehensive income attributable to minority

shareholders of a subsidiary of the current period are presented separately under the owners’ equity in

the consolidated balance sheet the net profit and the total comprehensive income in the consolidated

income statement respectively. Where losses attributable to the minority shareholders of a subsidiary

exceed the minority shareholders’ interest entitled in the shareholders’ equity of the subsidiary at the

beginning of the period the excess is allocated against the minority equity.* Addition of subsidiary or business

During the Reporting Period if there is an addition of subsidiary or business due to business

combination under common control the operating results and cash flows of the subsidiary or business

99 / 233Annual Report 2025

combination from the beginning of the current period to the end of the Reporting Period are included

into the consolidated financial statements and at the same time the amount at the end of the period of

the consolidated financial statements and the relevant items in the comparative statements are adjusted

as if the reporting entity after combination had been existing since the control of the ultimate controlling

party started.Where control over the investee under common control is obtained due to reasons such as increase

in investments for equity investment held before the control over the acquiree is obtained profit or loss

other comprehensive income and other changes in net assets recognized from the later of the acquisition

of the original equity interest and the date when the acquirer and the acquiree were placed under

common control until the date of combination are offset against the retained profit at the beginning of

the period of the comparative statements or the profit or loss of the current period respectively.During the Reporting Period if there is an addition of subsidiary or business due to business

combination not under common control it shall be included in the consolidated financial statements on

the basis of the fair value of the identifiable assets liabilities and contingent liabilities determined at the

date of purchase.Where control over the investee not under common control is obtained due to reasons such as

increase in investments for the equity interest of the acquiree held before the date of purchase the

Company remeasures the equity interest at its fair value as at the date of purchase and any difference

between the fair value and its book value will be accounted for as investment gains of the current period.Where equity interest of the acquiree held before the date of purchase is related to other comprehensive

income that can be reclassified into profit and loss in the future and other changes in owners’ equity

under the equity method such equity interest is transferred to investment gains of the period to which

the date of purchase belongs.* Disposal of subsidiaries

A. General treatment for disposal

When control over the investee is lost due to the disposal of part of the equity investment or other

reasons the Company remeasures the remaining equity investment at fair value as at the date on which

control is lost. The difference between the sum of the consideration received from equity disposal and

the fair value of the remaining equity interest and the sum of the net assets of the subsidiary

proportionate to the original shareholding accumulated from the date of purchase or combination and

goodwill is included in investment gains of the period during which the control is lost. Other

comprehensive income that is related to the equity investment in the original subsidiary and can be

reclassified into profit and loss in the future and other changes in owners’ equity under the equity

method are transferred to investment gains of the period during which the control is lost.B. Stepwise disposal of subsidiary

In respect of stepwise disposal of equity investment in a subsidiary through multiple transactions

until control is lost if the terms conditions and economic effects of the transactions of equity investment

in the subsidiary satisfy one or more of the following conditions the transactions are normally accounted

for as a basket of transactions:

i. these transactions were entered into simultaneously or after considering the effects of each other;

ii. these transactions constituted a complete commercial result as a whole;

iii. one transaction was conditional upon at least one of the other transaction;

iv. one transaction was not economical on its own but was economical when considering together

with other transactions.Where the transactions constitute a basket of transactions the Company accounts for the

transactions as a transaction of disposal of a subsidiary until control is lost; the difference between the

amount received each time for disposal before control is lost and the net assets of such subsidiary

corresponding to the disposal of investment is recognized as other comprehensive income in the

consolidated financial statements and is transferred to profit or loss of the period during which control is

lost upon loss of control.Where the transactions do not constitute a basket of transactions before the loss of control the

transactions are accounted for using the policies related to partial disposal of equity investment in a

subsidiary where no control is lost; when control is lost they are accounted for using the general method

for disposal of subsidiaries.* Purchase of minority interests in subsidiary

For the difference between the long-term equity investment newly acquired due to the purchase of

minority interests by the Company and the share of net assets of the subsidiary calculated according to

100 / 233Annual Report 2025

the new shareholding accumulated from the date of purchase (or date of combination) share premium of

the capital reserve in the consolidated balance sheet will be adjusted; where share premium of the capital

reserve is insufficient for the write-down retained profit will be adjusted.* Partial disposal of equity investment in subsidiaries without losing control

For the difference between the disposal consideration and the net assets of the subsidiary

corresponding to the disposal of long-term equity investment accumulated from the date of purchase or

date of combination share premium of the capital reserve in the consolidated balance sheet will be

adjusted; where share premium of the capital reserve is insufficient for the write-down retained profit

will be adjusted.

Cash refers to the cash on hand and deposits that are available for payment of the Company. Cash

equivalents refer to investments held by the Company that are short-term highly liquid readily

convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

10. Foreign currency transactions and translation of foreign currency financial statements

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

(1) Foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions shall be translated into RMB at the spot exchange rate on the day

when the transactions occur.Balance of monetary items in foreign currency as at the balance sheet date is translated at the spot

rates prevailing at the balance sheet date and any translation difference arising therefrom is included in

profit or loss of the period except for the translation difference arising from dedicated borrowings in

foreign currency related to the construction of assets qualified for capitalization which is accounted for

under the principle of capitalization of borrowing expenses.

(2) Translation of foreign currency financial statements

Asset and liability items in the balance sheet are translated at the spot rates prevailing at the balance

sheet date. Owners’ equity items other than “undistributed profit” adopt the spot rates on the dates when

transactions are incurred. Income and expense items in the income statement are translated at the

approximate rates prevailing at the transaction dates which are determined in a systematic and

reasonable way.On disposal of a foreign operation the exchange differences in the financial statements in foreign

currency relating to that foreign operation are transferred from owners’ equity to profit or loss of the

period during which the disposal occurs.

11. Financial instruments

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

The Company recognizes a financial asset financial liability or equity instrument when it becomes

a party to a financial instrument contract.

(1) Classification of the financial instruments

According to the business model of the Company’s management of financial assets and the

contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets financial assets are classified at the initial

recognition as: financial assets at amortized cost financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and

other financial assets at fair value through current profit or loss.The Company classifies financial assets that simultaneously meet the following conditions and are

not designated as financial assets at fair value through current profit or loss as financial assets measured

at amortized cost:

- the business model aims at collecting contractual cash flows; and

- contractual cash flows are only the payment made based on the principal and the interest of the

outstanding principal amount.The Company classifies financial assets that simultaneously meet the following conditions and are

not designated as financial assets at fair value through current profit or loss as financial assets (debt

instruments) at fair value through other comprehensive income:

- the business model aims at both collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets;

and

- contractual cash flows are only the payment made based on the principal and the interest of the

outstanding principal amount.For non-trading equity instrument investments the Company irrevocably designates them as

financial assets (equity instruments) at fair value through other comprehensive income at the time of

initial recognition. The designation is made on the basis of a single investment and the related

investment meets the definition of an equity instrument from the issuer’s perspective.Except for the above-mentioned financial assets measured at amortized cost and at fair value

through other comprehensive income the Company classifies all other financial assets as financial assets

at fair value through current profit or loss. At the time of initial recognition if accounting mismatches

can be eliminated or significantly reduced the Company can irrevocably designate financial assets that

should be classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other

comprehensive income as financial assets at fair value through current profit or loss.Financial liabilities at the initial recognition are classified into financial liabilities at fair value

through current profit or loss and financial liabilities at amortized cost.Financial liabilities at the initial recognition can be designated as financial liabilities at fair value

through current profit or loss if one of the following conditions can be met:

* Such designation can eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatches.* According to the enterprise risk management or investment strategy stated in the official written

document management and evaluation of the financial liabilities portfolio or financial assets and

financial liabilities portfolio are based on fair value which will be used as the basis for reporting to the

key management personnel.* The financial liabilities include embedded derivatives that need to be split separately.

(2) Recognition and measurement of financial instruments

* Financial assets at amortized cost

Financial assets at amortized cost include notes receivable accounts receivable other receivables

long-term receivables and debt investment which are initially measured at fair value and related

transaction costs are included in the initial recognition amount. The accounts receivable of major

financing components and the accounts receivable of the Company’s decision not to consider the

financing component with the term less than one year are initially measured at the contract transaction

price.

102 / 233Annual Report 2025

Interest calculated by the effective interest method during the period of holding is included in the

current profit or loss.Upon recovery or disposal the difference between the acquisition price and the carrying amount of

the financial asset shall be included in the current profit or loss.* Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (debt instruments)

Financial assets (debt instruments) at fair value through other comprehensive income including

receivables financing and other debt investments are initially measured at fair value and related

transaction costs are included in the initial recognition amount. The financial assets are subsequently

measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are included in other comprehensive income except for

interest impairment losses or gains and exchange gain or loss calculated using the effective interest

method.When the recognition is terminated the accumulated gain or loss previously included in other

comprehensive income is transferred from other comprehensive income and included in the current

profit or loss.* Financial assets (equity instruments) at fair value through other comprehensive income

Financial assets (equity instruments) at fair value through other comprehensive income including

other equity instruments are initially measured at fair value and related transaction costs are included in

the initial recognition amount. The financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value and changes

in fair value are included in other comprehensive income. The dividends obtained are included in the

current profit and loss.When the recognition is terminated the accumulated gain or loss previously included in other

comprehensive income is transferred from other comprehensive income and included in retained

earnings.* Financial assets at fair value through the current profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through the current profit or loss including held-for-trading financial

assets derivative financial assets and other non-current financial assets are initially measured at fair

value and related transaction costs are included in the current profit or loss. The financial assets are

subsequently measured at fair value and changes in fair value are included in the current profit or loss.* Financial liabilities at fair value through current profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through current profit or loss including held-for-trading financial

liabilities and derivative financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value and related transaction

costs are included in the current profit or loss. The financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair

value and changes in fair value are included in the current profit or loss.When the recognition is terminated the difference between the carrying amount and consideration

paid is included in the current profit and loss.* Financial liabilities at amortized cost

Financial liabilities at amortized cost including short-term borrowings bills payable and accounts

payable other payables long-term borrowings bonds payable long-term payables are initially

measured at fair value and related transaction costs are included in the initial recognition amount.Interest calculated by the effective interest method during the period of holding is included in the

current profit or loss.When the recognition is terminated the difference between consideration paid and the carrying

amount of the financial liabilities is included in the current profit and loss.

(3) Recognition basis and measurement methods for derecognition of financial assets and transfer

of financial assets

The Company derecognizes financial assets when one of the following conditions is met:

- the contractual rights to collect the cash flows from the financial assets expire;

- the financial assets have been transferred and nearly all the risks and rewards related to the

ownership of the financial assets have been transferred to the transferee; or

103 / 233Annual Report 2025

- the financial assets have been transferred and the Company have neither transferred nor retained

almost all risks and rewards related to the ownership of the financial assets but did not retain control

over the financial assets.When the Company modifies or renegotiates a contract with a counterparty in a manner that

constitutes a material modification the original financial asset is derecognized and a new financial asset

is recognized in accordance with the modified terms.Where a financial asset is transferred it shall not be derecognized if the Company has retained

nearly all the risks and rewards related to the ownerships of the financial asset.The substance-over-form principle shall be adopted while making a judgment on whether the

transfer of financial assets satisfies the above conditions for derecognition.The transfer of financial assets could be classified into entire transfer and partial transfer. If the

transfer of an entire financial asset satisfies the conditions for derecognition the difference between the

two amounts below shall be included in the current profit or loss:

* The carrying amount of the financial assets transferred;

* The consideration received as a result of the transfer plus the accumulative amount of the

change in fair value previously included into the owners’ equity (in cases where the transferred financial

assets are financial assets (debt instruments) at fair value through other comprehensive income).If the partial transfer of financial assets satisfies the conditions for derecognition the overall

carrying amount of the transferred financial assets shall be apportioned according to their respective

relative fair value between the portion of derecognized part and the remaining part and the difference

between the two amounts below shall be included in the current profit or loss:

* The carrying amount of the derecognized portion;

* The consideration of the derecognized portion plus the corresponding derecognized portion of

accumulated change in fair value previously included in owners’ equity (in cases where the transferred

financial assets are financial assets (debt instruments) at fair value through other comprehensive

income).If the transfer of financial assets does not meet the conditions for derecognition the financial assets

continue to be recognized and the consideration received is recognized as a financial liability.

(4) Derecognition of financial liabilities

When the current obligation under a financial liability is completely or partially discharged the

whole or relevant portion of the liability is derecognized; if an agreement is entered into between the

Company and a creditor to replace the original financial liabilities with new financial liabilities with

substantially different terms the original financial liabilities will be derecognized and the new financial

liabilities will be recognized.If the contract terms of the original financial liabilities are substantially amended in part or in full

the original financial liabilities will be derecognized in full or in part and the financial liabilities whose

terms have been amended will be recognized as a new financial liability.When financial liabilities are derecognized in full or in part the difference between the carrying

amount of the financial liabilities derecognized and the consideration paid (including transferred

non-cash assets or new financial liability) will be included in the current profit or loss.Where the Company repurchases part of its financial liabilities the carrying amount of such

financial liabilities will be allocated according to the relative fair value between the continuously

recognized part and derecognized part on the repurchase date. The difference between the carrying

amount of the derecognized portion of financial liabilities and the consideration paid (including

transferred non-cash assets or new financial liability) will be included in the current profit or loss.

(5) Method of determining the fair values of financial assets and liabilities

A financial instrument with an active market determines its fair value by quoted prices in an active

market. Financial instruments that do not exist in an active market shall use valuation techniques to

determine their fair value. During the valuation process the Company uses valuation techniques

appropriate to the prevailing circumstances with the support of sufficient data and other information

available selects inputs consistent with the characteristics of the assets or liabilities considered in the

transactions of relevant assets or liabilities by market participants and gives priority to relevant

104 / 233Annual Report 2025

observable inputs. Unobservable inputs are used only when the relevant observable inputs are not

accessible or the access to which is impracticable.

(6) Impairment test method and accounting treatment for impairment of financial instruments

Based on anticipated credit losses the Company carries out accounting treatments of impairment on

financial assets measured at amortized cost financial assets (debt instruments) at fair value through

other comprehensive income and financial guarantee contracts.The Company considers reasonable and evidence-based information about past events current

conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions and uses the risk of default as the weight to

calculate the probability-weighted amount of the present value of the difference between the contractual

cash flow receivable and the expected cash flow and recognizes the expected credit loss.Regarding one-year the receivables and contract assets formed from transactions regulated by the

Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue regardless of whether they contain

significant financing components or not the Company always measures their loss reserves in accordance

with the amount of anticipated credit losses for the entire lifetime.Regarding receivables from leasing formed from transactions regulated by the Accounting

Standards for Business Enterprises No. 21 - Leases the Company always measures their loss reserves in

accordance with the amount of anticipated credit losses for the entire lifetime.Regarding other financial instruments the Company assesses at each balance sheet date their credit

risk changes since initial recognition.The Company compares the risk of default on the balance sheet date of a financial instrument with

the risk of default on the date of initial recognition to determine the relative change in the risk of default

during the expected life of the financial instrument so as to assess whether the credit risk of the financial

instrument has increased significantly since the initial recognition. Usually after an overdue for more

than 30 days the Company believes that the credit risk of the financial instrument has increased

significantly unless there is conclusive evidence that the credit risk of the financial instrument has not

increased significantly since the initial recognition.If the credit risk of financial instrument at the balance sheet date is low the Company will believe

that the credit risk of the financial instrument has not increased significantly since the initial recognition.If the credit risk of the financial instruments has increased significantly since the initial recognition

the Company will measure its loss provision based on the amount of anticipated credit loss for the

lifetime of the financial instruments; if the credit risk of the financial instruments has not significantly

increased since the initial recognition the Company will measure its loss provision based on the amount

of anticipated credit loss for the financial instruments in the next 12 months. The increase or reversal of

the loss provision resulting therefrom is included in the current profit and loss as an impairment loss or

gain. Regarding financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (debt instruments)

the Company recognizes their loss reserves through other comprehensive income and includes

impairment losses or gains in the profit or loss for the current period without reducing the book value of

such financial assets presented in the balance sheet.If there is any objective evidence indicating that an account receivable has incurred credit

impairment the Company will make provision for impairment for that account receivable separately.Apart from the above-mentioned accounts receivable where bad debt provisions are accrued

separately the Company divides other financial instruments into several portfolios according to their

credit risk characteristics and determines the expected credit loss of each portfolio. Portfolios of notes

receivable accounts receivable and other receivables for provision of expected credit losses and the

basis for the Company’s determination are as follows:

* Portfolios for provision of expected credit losses and the determination basis:

Criteria for recognizing and providing for provision for decline in value of inventories

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

At the balance sheet date the inventories are measured according to the cost or the net realizable

value whichever is lower. If the cost of inventories is higher than the net realizable value the provision

for decline in value of inventories is made. The net realizable value refers in the ordinary course of

business to the amount after deducting the estimated cost of completion estimated sale expense and

relevant taxes from the estimated sale price of inventories.Net realizable value of held-for-sale commodity stocks such as finished goods goods-in-stock and

held-for-sale raw materials during the normal course of production and operation shall be determined

by their estimated selling price less the related selling expenses and taxes; the net realizable value of

material inventories which need to be processed during the normal course of production and operation

shall be determined by the amount after deducting the estimated cost of completion estimated selling

expenses and relevant taxes from the estimated selling price of finished goods; the net realizable value of

inventories held for execution of sales contracts or labor contracts shall be calculated on the ground of

the contracted price. If an enterprise holds more inventories than the quantity stipulated in the sales

contract the net realizable value of the exceeding part shall be calculated on the ground of general

selling price.If the factors which cause any value write-down of the inventories have disappeared thus causing

the inventories’ net realizable value to be higher than their carrying amount the amount of write-down is

reversed from the provision for the loss on decline in value of inventories which has been made. The

reversed amount is included in the profits and losses of the current period.Categories of groups and the basis for determining the allowance for decline in value of

108 / 233Annual Report 2025

The Company classifies a non-current asset or disposal group as held for sale when the carrying

amount of the non-current asset or disposal group will be recovered through a sale transaction (including

non-monetary asset exchange with commercial substance) rather than through continuing use.The Company classifies non-current assets or disposal groups meeting all of the following

conditions as held for sale:

(1) Assets or disposal groups can be sold immediately under current conditions based on the

practice of selling such assets or disposal groups in similar transactions;

(2) Sales are highly likely to occur that is the Company has already made a resolution on a sale

plan and obtained a certain purchase commitment and the sale is expected to be completed within one

year. The sale shall have been approved if the relevant regulations require the approval of the relevant or

regulatory authority governing the Company.If the carrying amount of non-current assets (excluding financial assets deferred income tax assets

or assets formed by employee remuneration) or disposal groups meeting all of the following conditions

as held for sale is higher than the fair value minus the net amount of the sale costs the carrying amount

will be written down to the net amount of fair value minus the sale costs the amount written down will

be recognized as asset impairment losses and included in the profit or loss for the current period and

provision for impairment of assets held for sale will be made.Criteria for identification and presentation of discontinued operation

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Discontinued operation is a component that satisfies one of the following conditions and is

separately identifiable and has been disposed of by the Company or is classified by the Company as

held for sale:

(1) It represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations;

(2) It is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or

geographical area of operations; or

(3) It is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.

The profit and loss from continuing operations and the profit and loss from discontinued operations

are separately presented in the income statement. Operational gains and losses such as impairment losses

and reversal amounts and disposal gains and losses from discontinued operations are reported as gains

and losses from discontinued operations. For the discontinued operations reported in the current period

the Company re-reports the information previously reported as profits and losses from continuing

operations as the profits and losses from discontinued operations for the comparable accounting period

in the current financial statements.

19. Long-term equity investments

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

(1) Joint control or significant influence criterion

Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement and exists only when

decisions about the relevant activities of the arrangement require the unanimous consent of the parties

sharing control. The Company together with the other joint venture parties can jointly control over the

investee and are entitled to the right of the net assets of the investee who is joint venture of the

Company.The term “significant influences” refers to the power to participate in making decisions on the

financial and operating policies of the invested enterprise but not to control or do joint control together

with other parties over the formulation of these policies. Where the investor can exercise significant

influence over the investee the investee is an associate of the Company.

(2) Determination of initial investment cost

* Long-term equity investments formed through business combination of entities

For long-term equity investments in subsidiaries formed by business combination under common

control the initial investment cost of long-term equity investments shall be determined based on share of

the book value of the owners’ equity of the acquiree in the consolidated financial statements of the

ultimate controlling party at the date of combination. The difference between the initial investment cost

of the long-term equity investment and the carrying value of the consideration paid is adjusted to the

equity premium in the capital reserve. If the capital premium in capital reserve is not sufficient to offset

109 / 233Annual Report 2025

the difference the remaining balance is adjusted against retained earnings. In connection with imposing

control over the investee under joint control as a result of additional investment and other reasons the

difference between the initial investment cost of the long-term equity investment recognized in

accordance with the above principles and the carrying amount of the long term equity investment before

the combination and the sum of carrying amount of newly paid consideration for additional shares

acquired on the date of combination is adjusted to equity premium. If the capital premium in capital

reserve is not sufficient to offset the difference the remaining balance is adjusted against retained

earnings.For long-term equity investment in subsidiaries formed by business combination not under common

control the cost of the combination ascertained on the date of acquisition shall be taken as the initial

investment cost of the long-term equity investments. In connection with imposing control over the

investee not under joint control as a result of additional investment and other reasons the initial

investment cost is the sum of the carrying amount of the equity investment originally held and the newly

increased initial investment cost.* Long-term equity investments acquired by means other than business combination

The initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment obtained by the Company by cash

payment shall be the purchase cost paid actually.The initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment obtained by the Company by means of

issuance of equity securities shall be the fair value of the equity securities issued.

(3) Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss

* Long-term equity investment accounted for by cost method

Long-term equity investment in subsidiaries of the Company is accounted for by cost method

unless the investment meets the conditions for holding for sale. except for the actual consideration paid

for the acquisition of investment or the declared but not yet distributed cash dividends or profits which

are included in the consideration investment gains are recognized as the Company’s shares of cash

dividends or profits declared by the investee.* Long-term equity investment accounted for by equity method

Long-term equity investments of associates and joint ventures are accounted for by equity method.Where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the investor’s interest in the

fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition no adjustment is made to the

initial investment cost of long-term equity investments; where the initial investment cost is less than the

investor’s interest in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition the

difference is included in the profits or losses of the current period and the cost of the long-term equity

investment is adjusted simultaneously.The Company recognizes the investment income and other comprehensive income according to the

shares of net profit or loss and other comprehensive income realized by the investee which it shall be

entitled or shared respectively and simultaneously makes adjustment to the carrying amount of

long-term equity investments; the carrying amount of long-term equity investments shall be reduced by

attributable share of the profit or cash dividends for distribution declared by the investee. In relation to

other changes of owners’ equity except for net profit and loss other comprehensive income and profit

distributions of the investee (hereinafter referred to as “other changes in owners’ equity”) the carrying

amount of long-term equity investments shall be adjusted and included in the owners’ equity.When determining the amount of proportion of net profit or loss other comprehensive income and

other changes in owners’ equity in the investee which it entitles fair value of each identifiable assets of

the investee at the time when the investment is obtained shall be used as the basis and adjustment shall

be made to the net profit and other comprehensive income of the investee according to the accounting

policies and accounting period of the Company.The unrealized profit or loss resulting from transactions between the Company and its associates or

joint ventures shall be offset in proportion to the investor’s equity interest of investee based on which

investment income or loss shall be recognized. However the situation that the assets invested or sold

constitute business is excluded. Any losses resulting from internal transactions which are attributable to

impairment of assets shall be fully recognized.The Company shall recognize the net losses of the joint ventures or associates until the book value

of the long-term equity investment and other long-term rights and interests which substantially form the

net investment made to the invested entity are reduced to zero unless the joint ventures or associates

have the obligation to undertake extra losses. If the joint ventures or associates realize net profits in the

110 / 233Annual Report 2025

future the Company resumes recognizing its share of profits after the share of profits makes up for the

share of unrecognized losses.* Disposal of long-term equity investments

For disposal of long-term equity investment the difference between the carrying amount and the

consideration actually received shall be included in the current profit or loss.For partial disposal of long-term equity investments accounted for by the equity method if the

remaining equity is still accounted for by the equity method the other comprehensive income calculated

and recognized by the original equity method shall be carried forward in corresponding proportion by

using the same basis as the investee used for direct disposal of relevant assets or liabilities. Other

changes in owners’ equity shall be carried forward to the profits or losses of the current period on a pro

rata basis.When the joint control or material influence over the investee is lost due to disposal of equity

investment and other reasons other comprehensive income recognized in the original equity investment

due to the use of the equity method shall when it is no longer calculated by the equity method be

subject to the accounting treatment on the same basis as the investee used for direct disposal of relevant

assets or liabilities. Other changes in owners’ equity shall be all transferred into the profits or losses of

the current period when they are no longer calculated by the equity method.When the control over the investee is lost due to partial disposal of equity investment and other

reasons the remaining equities after disposal shall be accounted for by equity method in preparing

individual financial statements provided that joint control or material influence over the investee can be

imposed and shall be adjusted as if such remaining equities has been accounted for by the equity

method since they are obtained. The other comprehensive income recognized before the control over the

investee is obtained shall be carried forward in proportion by using the same basis as the investee used

for direct disposal of relevant assets or liabilities and the other changes in owners’ equity calculated and

recognized using the equity method shall be carried forward to the profits or losses of the current period

on a pro rata basis. Where the remaining equities after disposal cannot impose joint control or material

influence over the investee they shall be recognized as financial assets and the difference between fair

value and the carrying amount on the date when control is lost shall be included in the profits or losses

of the current period. All other comprehensive income and other changes in owners’ equity recognized

before the control over the investee is obtained shall be carried forward.In respect of stepwise disposal of equity investment in a subsidiary through multiple transactions

until control is lost where the transactions constitute a basket of transactions the Company accounts for

the transactions as a transaction of disposal of a subsidiary until control is lost; however the difference

between the amount received each time for disposal before control is lost and the carrying amount of

long-term equity investments corresponding to the disposal of equity is recognized as other

comprehensive income in the individual financial statements and is transferred to the profits or losses of

the current period during which control is lost upon loss of control. Where the transactions do not

constitute a basket of transactions each transaction shall be accounted for separately.

20. Investment real estate

(1). If the cost measurement model is applied:

Depreciation or amortization method

Investment real estate is properties held to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both

and include leased land use rights land use rights held for capital appreciation and subsequent transfer

and buildings that are leased (including buildings constructed by the Company or developed for the

purpose of leasing and buildings under construction or development that are intended for leasing in the

future).Subsequent expenditures related to investment real estate are recognized in investment real estate

costs when it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the Company and the cost can be reliably

measured. Otherwise the expenditures are recognized in the current profit and loss when incurred.The Company uses the cost measurement model to measure existing investment real estate. For

investment real estate measured using the cost model—buildings intended for leasing—the same

depreciation policy as that for the Company’s fixed assets is applied. Land use rights held for leasing are

amortized in accordance with the same policy as for intangible assets.

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Fixed assets are tangible assets that are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services

for rental to others or for administrative purposes; and have a useful life of more than one accounting

year. Fixed assets are recognized when they meet the following conditions:

* It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the fixed assets will flow to the

enterprise;

* The cost of fixed assets can be reliably measured.A fixed asset is initially measured at its cost (and considering the impact of expected abandonment

cost factors).Subsequent expenditures related to fixed assets are included in the cost of fixed assets when their

related economic benefits are likely to flow in to the Company and their costs can be reliably measured;

the book value of the replaced part is derecognized; all other subsequent expenditures are included in the

profits or losses of the current period at the time of occurrence.

(2). Method for depreciation

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Fixed assets are depreciated by categories using the straight-line method and the depreciation rates

are determined by categories based upon their estimated useful lives and their estimated residual value.For fixed assets with provision for impairment accrued the depreciation amount shall be determined

according to the book value after deduction of the impairment provision and the remaining useful life in

the future period. Where the parts of a fixed asset have different useful lives or cause economic benefits

for the enterprise in different ways different depreciation rates or depreciation methods shall be applied

and each part shall be depreciated separately.The methods for depreciation useful lives of depreciation residual value and annual depreciation

rates of various categories of fixed assets are as follows:

Method for Useful lives of Residual value Annual

Category

depreciation depreciation (year) ratio depreciation rate

Property and buildings Straight-line method 20 5% 4.75%

Machinery and equipment Straight-line method 10 5-10% 9.5-9%

Transportation vehicles Straight-line method 4-10 0-10% 25-9%

Other equipment Straight-line method 2-10 0-10% 47.5-9.5%

22. Construction in progress

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Construction in progress is measured at the actual cost incurred. Actual cost includes construction

cost installation cost borrowing expense qualified for capitalization and other necessary expenditures

incurred before the construction in progress reaches its intended use status. When the construction in

progress reaches the intended use status it shall be transferred to fixed assets and its depreciation shall

be accrued from the next month. The standards and time point for carrying forward the Company’s

construction in progress to fixed assets are as follows:

Category Standards and time point for carrying forward them to fixed assets

(1) The construction project and ancillary projects are substantially completed; (2) the

construction project meets the predetermined design requirements and is accepted by

units responsible for surveying design construction supervision etc.; (3) the

construction project is accepted by fire department land department planning

Houses buildings and

department or other external authorities if such acceptance is required; (4) if the

decoration of fixed assets

construction project has reached the predetermined state for use but the final account

for completion has not been made the project shall be carried forward to fixed assets

at the value estimated according to the actual cost of the project from the date when it

reaches the predetermined state for use.Machines and other (1) The equipment and supporting facilities are installed; (2) the equipment can

equipment that need to be maintain normal and stable operation for a period of time after commissioning; (3) the

installed and production equipment can stably output qualified products in a period of time; (4) the

commissioned and other equipment is accepted by asset management personnel and users.long-term assets

23. Borrowing costs

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

(1) Criteria for recognition of capitalized borrowing costs

For borrowing costs incurred by the Company that are directly attributable to the acquisition

construction or production of assets qualified for capitalization the costs will be capitalized and

included in the costs of the related assets. Other borrowing costs shall be recognized as expense in the

period in which they incur and are included in the current profit or loss.Assets qualified for capitalization are assets (fixed assets investment property inventories etc.)

that necessarily take a substantial period of time for acquisition construction or production to get ready

for their intended use or sale.

(2) Capitalization period of borrowing costs

The capitalization period shall refer to the period between the commencement and the cessation of

capitalization of borrowing costs excluding the period in which capitalization of borrowing costs is

temporarily suspended.Capitalization of borrowing costs begins when the following three conditions are fully satisfied:

* expenditures for the assets (including cash paid transferred non-currency assets or expenditure

for holding debt liability for the acquisition construction or production of assets qualified for

capitalization) have been incurred;

* borrowing costs have been incurred;

* acquisition construction or production that are necessary to enable the asset reach its intended

usable or saleable condition have commenced.Capitalization of borrowing costs shall be suspended during periods in which the qualifying asset

under acquisition and construction or production ready for the intended use or sale.

(3) Suspension of capitalization period

Capitalization of borrowing costs shall be suspended during periods in which the acquisition

construction or production of a qualifying asset is interrupted abnormally when the interruption is for a

continuous period of more than 3 months; if the interruption is a necessary step for making the

qualifying asset under acquisition and construction or production ready for the intended use or sale the

capitalization of the borrowing costs shall continue. The borrowing costs incurred during such

suspension period shall be recognized as the current profit or loss. When the acquisition and construction

or production of the asset resumes the capitalization of borrowing costs commences.

(4) Calculation of capitalization rate and amount of borrowing costs

For specific borrowings for the acquisition construction or production of assets qualified for

capitalization the amount of borrowing costs for capitalization is determined through borrowing costs of

the specific borrowings actually incurred in the current period minus the interest income earned on the

unused borrowing loans as a deposit in the bank or as investment income earned from temporary

investment.For general borrowings for the acquisition construction or production of assets qualified for

capitalization the to-be-capitalized amount of interests on the general borrowings shall be calculated and

determined by multiplying the weighted average asset disbursement of the part of the accumulative asset

disbursements minus the specifically borrowed loans by the capitalization rate of the general borrowings

used. The capitalization rate shall be calculated and determined according to the weighted average actual

interest rate of the general borrowings.During the capitalization period the exchange difference between the principal and interest of

dedicated borrowings in foreign currency is capitalized and included in the cost of the assets qualified

for capitalization. Exchange differences arising from the principal and interest of borrowings in foreign

currency other than dedicated borrowings in foreign currency are included in the profits or losses of the

current period.

instruments and equipment used in R&D activities and the expenses amortized for software intellectual

property and non-patented technologies (proprietary technologies licenses design and calculation

methods etc.).D. Design and sample costs

Design and sample costs refer to the costs incurred in the conception development and

manufacturing of new products and new processes and the design of processes technical specifications

procedures and operational characteristics including the costs incurred in creative design activities for

the acquisition of innovative creative and breakthrough products.* Specific criteria for the division of research phase and development phase

The expenses for internal research and development projects of the Company are divided into

expenses in the research phase and expenses in the development phase.Research phase: scheduled innovative investigations and research activities to obtain and

understand scientific or technological knowledge.Development phase: apply the research outcomes or other knowledge to a plan or design prior to a

commercial production or use in order to produce new or essentially-improved materials devices

products etc.* Specific criteria for capitalization at development phase

Expenditure in the research phase is included in the profit or loss for the current period at the time

of occurrence. Expenses in the development phase are recognized as an intangible asset when all of the

following conditions are satisfied otherwise are included in the current profit or loss:

A. it is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or

sale;

B. there is an intention to complete the intangible asset for use or sale;

profit or loss.

27. Impairment of long-term assets

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Long-term assets such as long-term equity investments investment real estate measured at the cost

method fixed assets construction in progress right-of-use assets intangible assets with finite useful life

and oil and gas assets are tested for impairment if there is any indication that an asset may be impaired at

the balance sheet date. If the result of the impairment test indicates that the recoverable amount of the

asset is less than its carrying amount the difference shall be used to make impairment provision and an

impairment loss are recognized. The recoverable amount is the higher of the net amount of asset’s fair

value less costs to sell and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the

asset. Provision for asset impairment is determined and recognized on the individual asset basis. If it is

not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset the recoverable amount of a

group of assets to which the asset belongs to is determined. An assets group is the smallest group of

assets that is able to generate cash inflow independently.Impairment test to goodwill formed by business combination intangible assets with indefinite

useful life and intangible assets not ready to use shall be carried out at least at the end of each year

regardless of whether there are any indications of impairment.When the Company carries out impairment test to goodwill the Company shall as of the

purchasing day allocate on a reasonable basis the carrying amount of the goodwill formed by enterprise

115 / 233Annual Report 2025

merger to the relevant asset groups or if there is a difficulty in allocation the Company shall allocate it

to the portfolio of asset groups. Relevant asset groups or portfolio of asset groups refer to the asset

groups or portfolio of asset groups that can benefit from the synergistic effect of business combination.For the purpose of impairment test to the relevant asset groups or portfolio of asset groups

containing goodwill if any evidence shows that the impairment of asset groups or portfolio of asset

groups related to goodwill exists an impairment test will be made firstly on the asset groups or portfolio

of asset groups not containing goodwill thus calculating the recoverable amount and comparing it with

the relevant carrying amount so as to recognize the corresponding impairment loss. Then the Company

will make an impairment test to the asset groups or portfolio of asset groups containing goodwill and

compare their carrying value with their recoverable amount. Where the recoverable amount is lower than

the carrying value thereof the amount of impairment loss is first deducted and allocated to the carrying

value of goodwill in the asset groups or portfolio of asset groups and then the carrying value of other

assets other than goodwill in the asset groups or portfolio of asset groups is deducted according to the

percentages of the carrying value of such other assets. Once the above asset impairment loss is

recognized it will not be reversed in the subsequent accounting periods.

28. Long-term prepaid expenses

the relevant provisions of the local government for the employees. During the accounting period when

employees provide service the Company will calculate the amount payable which will be recognized as

116 / 233Annual Report 2025

liabilities in accordance with the local stipulated basis and proportions and the liabilities will be

included in the current profit or loss or costs of related assets.* Defined benefit scheme

The welfare responsibilities generated from defined benefit scheme based on the formula

determined by projected unit credit method will be vested to the service period of employees and

included into the current profit or costs of related assets.The deficit or surplus generated from the present value of obligations of the defined benefit scheme

minus the fair value of the assets of defined benefit scheme is recognized as net liabilities or net assets.When the defined benefit scheme has surplus the Company will measure the net assets of the defined

benefit scheme at the lower of the surplus of defined benefit scheme and the upper limit of the assets.All obligations of the defined benefit plan including the expected duty of payment within 12

months after the end of annual reporting period during which employees provide service shall be

discounted based on the bond market yield of sovereign bond matching the term of obligations of the

defined benefit plan and currency or corporate bonds of high quality in the active market on the balance

sheet date.The service cost incurred by defined benefit scheme and the net interest of the net liabilities and net

assets of the defined benefit scheme will be included in the current profit or loss or costs of relevant

assets. The changes as a result of re-measurement of the net defined benefit liabilities or assets shall be

recognized in other comprehensive income and shall not be reversed to profit or loss at subsequent

accounting period. When the original defined benefit plan is terminated amount originally included in

other comprehensive income shall be transferred to undistributed profit in the scope of equity.When the defined benefit scheme is settled the gain or loss is confirmed based on the difference

between the present value of obligations and the settlement price of the defined benefit scheme as at the

balance sheet date.

□ Applicable √ Not applicable

31. Estimated liabilities

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

The Company shall recognize the obligations related to contingencies when all of the following

conditions are satisfied:

(1) obligation is a present obligation of the Company;

(2) it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits of the Company will be required to settle the

obligation; and

(3) the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Estimated liabilities shall be initially measured at the best estimate of the expenses required to settle

the related present obligation.Factors pertaining to a contingency such as risk uncertainties and time value of money shall be

taken into account as a whole in getting the best estimate. Where the effect of the time value of money is

material the best estimate shall be determined by discounting the related future cash outflow.Where the expenses required have a successive range and the possibilities of occurrence of each

result are the same in the range the best estimate shall be determined according to the median value

within the range; in other cases the best estimate shall be determined as below:

* If contingencies involve a single item the best estimate shall be determined according to the most

possible occurrence amount.

117 / 233Annual Report 2025

* If contingencies involve multiple items the best estimate shall be calculated and determined in

accordance with various possible outcomes and related possibilities.Where some or all of the expenses required to settle an estimated liability are expected to be

reimbursed by a third party the reimbursement is separately recognized as an asset when it is virtually

certain that the reimbursement will be received. The amount recognized for the reimbursement is limited

to the carrying amount of the liability recognized.The Company reviews the carrying value of the estimated liabilities at the balance sheet date. If

there is any exact evidence indicating that the carrying value cannot really reflect the current best

estimate the carrying value shall be adjusted in accordance with the current best estimate.

32. Share-based payments

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Share-based payments are transactions that grant equity instruments or assume equity-instrument

based liabilities for receiving services rendered by employees or other parties. The Company’s

share-based payments included equity-settled share-based payments and cash-settled share-based

payments.

(1) Equity-settled share-based payments and equity instruments

Equity-settled share-based payments made in exchange for services rendered by employees are

measured at the fair value of equity instruments granted to employees. Share-based payment transactions

vested immediately after the date of grant shall be included in the relevant cost or expense based on the

fair value of equity instruments at the date of grant and the capital reserve shall be increased

accordingly. For share-based payment transactions vested only when the services during the waiting

period are completed or the specified performance conditions are satisfied after the grant the Company

shall at each balance sheet date during the waiting period include the services obtained during the

period in relevant cost or expense at the fair value of the date of grant according to the best estimate of

the number of vested equity instruments and the capital reserve shall be increased accordingly.If the terms of the equity-settled share-based payments are amended the Company shall recognize

the services received at least based on the situation before the amendment is made. In addition any

amendment resulting in the increase of the fair value of the equity instrument granted or changes that are

beneficial to employees on the amendment date will be recognized as an increase in the service

received.During the waiting period if the granted equity instrument is cancelled the Company will accelerate

the vesting thereof immediately include the remaining amount that should be recognized in the waiting

period in the current profit or loss and recognize the capital reserve. However if new equity instruments

are vested and they are verified at the vesting date of new equity instrument as alternatives vested to cancel

equity instruments the treatment on the new equity instrument is in conformity with the modified

treatment on disposal of equity instrument.

(2) Cash-settled share-based payments and equity instruments

Cash-settled share-based payments are measured at the fair value of the liabilities calculated and

determined on the basis of shares or other equity instruments undertaken by the Company. Share-based

payment transactions vested immediately after the date of grant shall be included in the relevant cost or

expense based on the fair value of liabilities undertook at the date of grant and the liabilities shall be

increased accordingly. For share-based payment transactions vested only when the services during the

waiting period are completed or the specified performance conditions are satisfied after the grant the

Company shall include the services obtained during the period in relevant cost or expense at the fair

value of the liabilities undertook by the Company based on the best estimate of the vesting situation and

the liabilities shall be included accordingly. At each balance sheet date before the settlement and the

settlement date of relevant liabilities the fair value of the liabilities is remeasured and its changes are

included in the current profit or loss.If the Company modifies the terms and conditions of a cash-settled share-based payment agreement

so that it becomes an equity-settled share-based payment on the date of modification (regardless of

whether it occurs within or after the vesting period) the Company measures the equity-settled

share-based payment at the fair value on the grant date of the equity instrument and recognizes the

services acquired in capital reserve and derecognizes the liability recognized for the cash-settled

share-based payment on the date of modification with the difference between the two being recognized

118 / 233Annual Report 2025

in profit or loss for the period. If the vesting period is lengthened or shortened as a result of the

modification the Company accounts for the modification in accordance with the modified vesting

period.

33. Preference shares perpetual bonds and other financial instruments

□ Applicable √ Not applicable

34. Revenue

(1). Accounting policies used in recognition and measurement of revenue by type of business

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

* Accounting policies used in recognition and measurement of revenue

The Company recognizes revenue when its performance obligations in the contract are fulfilled

that is the control over the relevant goods or services is obtained by the customer. Obtaining control

over related goods or services means being able to lead the use of the goods or services and obtain

almost all of the economic benefits from the goods or services.If the contract contains two or more performance obligations the Company will at the date of the

contract allocate the transaction price to each individual performance obligation in accordance with the

relative proportion of the stand-alone selling price of the goods or services promised by each individual

performance obligation. The Company measures revenue based on the transaction price allocated to each

individual performance obligation.Transaction price refers to the amount of consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to

receive due to the transfer of goods or services to customers excluding amounts collected on behalf of

third parties and amounts expected to be returned to customers. The Company determines the transaction

price in accordance with the terms of the contract and combined with its past customary practices. When

determining the transaction price the Company considers the impact of variable consideration major

financing components in the contract non-cash consideration consideration payable to customers and

other factors. The Company determines the transaction price that includes variable consideration at an

amount that does not exceed the amount of accumulated recognized revenue that is unlikely to be

significantly reversed when the relevant uncertainty is eliminated. If there is a major financing

component in the contract the Company determines the transaction price based on the amount payable

in cash when the customer obtains control over the goods or services and amortizes the difference

between the transaction price and the contract consideration with the actual interest rate method during

the contract period.The performance obligation is fulfilled during a certain period of time if one of the following

conditions is satisfied otherwise the performance obligation is fulfilled at a certain point in time:

* the customer obtains and consumes the economic benefits brought by the Company’s performance

at the same time as the Company’s performance.* the customer can control the products under construction during the Company’s performance.* the goods produced during the Company’s performance have irreplaceable uses and the Company

has the right to collect payment for the cumulative performance part that has been completed so far

during the entire contract period.For performance obligations performed within a certain period of time the Company recognizes

revenue in accordance with the performance progress during that period except where the performance

progress cannot be reasonably determined. The Company considers the nature of the goods or services

and adopts the output method or the input method to determine the performance progress. When the

performance progress cannot be reasonably determined and the cost incurred is expected to be

compensated the Company recognizes the revenue according to the amount of the cost incurred until the

performance progress can be reasonably determined.For performance obligations performed at a certain point in time the Company recognizes revenue

at the point when the customer obtains control over the relevant goods or services. When judging

whether the customer has obtained control over goods or services the Company considers the following

signs:

* the Company has the current right to receive payment for the goods or services that is the

customer has the current payment obligation for the goods or services;

119 / 233Annual Report 2025

* the Company has transferred the legal ownership of the goods to the customer that is the

customer has the legal ownership of the goods;

* the company has transferred the goods to the customer in kind that is the customer has taken

possession of the goods in kind;

* the company has transferred the main risks and rewards of the ownership of the goods to the

customer that is the customer has obtained the main risks and rewards of the ownership of the goods;

* the customer has accepted the goods or services.The Company determines whether the Company’s status is that of a principal or agent when

engaging in a transaction based on whether it has control over the goods or services prior to transferring

them to the customer. If the Company is able to control the goods or services before transferring them to

the customer the Company is the principal responsible party and recognizes revenue based on the total

consideration received or receivable. Otherwise the Company shall recognize revenue as an agent based

on the amount of commissions or fees to which it is expected to be entitled.* Disclosure of specific revenue recognition methods and measurement methods by the type of

business

A. Sale contract: The sale contract between the Company and its customers usually contains only

the performance obligation for the transfer of goods. The Company usually takes into account the

following factors in order to obtain the current right of collection of goods the transfer of primary risks

and rewards on the ownership of the goods the transfer of legal ownership of the goods the transfer of

physical assets of the goods and the customer’s acceptance of the goods as the time point of revenue

recognition.B. Supply chain service: The provision of integrated logistics and supply chain services is a

performance obligation performed at a certain time point and revenue is recognized when the

corresponding services have been provided the payment has been collected or the right to collect

payment has been obtained and the corresponding economic benefits are likely to flow in.C. Others (including franchise management fee hardware and software and material income):

Revenue is recognized at the time point when the customer obtains control over the corresponding goods

or services.

(2). Different revenue recognition and measurement methods for the same type of business

adopting different business models

□ Applicable √ Not applicable

35. Contract cost

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Contract cost includes contract performance cost and contract acquisition cost.If the cost incurred by the Company for the performance of the contract does not fall within the

scope of relevant standards and regulations for inventories fixed assets or intangible assets it shall be

recognized as an asset as the contract performance cost when the following conditions are met:

* the cost is directly related to a current or expected contract;

* the cost increases the Company’s future resources for fulfilling its performance obligations;

* the cost is expected to be recovered.If the incremental cost incurred by the Company to obtain the contract is expected to be recovered

it will be recognized as an asset as the cost of obtaining the contract.Assets related to contract costs are amortized on the same basis as the revenue recognition of goods

or services related to the assets; however if the amortization period of cost of obtaining the contract

does not exceed one year the Company will include it in the current profit or loss when it occurs.If the carrying value of the assets related to the contract cost is higher than the difference between

the following two items the Company will make provision for impairment of the excess part and

recognize it as an asset impairment loss:

(1) the remaining consideration expected to be obtained due to the transfer of goods or services

related to the assets; and

(2) the costs expected to be incurred due to the transfer of the related goods or services.

If the depreciation factors in the previous period change later causing the aforementioned

difference to be higher than the carrying value of the assets the Company will reverse the

120 / 233Annual Report 2025

previously-made provision for impairment and include it in the current profit or loss but the carrying

value of the assets after the reversal cannot exceed the carrying value of the assets at the date of reversal

under the assumption that no provision is made for the impairment.

36. Government subsidies

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

(1) Types

Government subsidies are monetary or non-monetary assets obtained by the Company from the

government free of charge. They are divided into government subsidies related to assets and government

subsidies related to income.Government subsidies related to assets refer to government subsidies obtained by the Company that

are used to purchase or construct or otherwise form long-term assets. Government subsidies related to

income refer to the government subsidies other than government subsidies related to assets.The specific standards for the Company to classify government subsidies into government subsidies

related to assets are as follows:

If obtained subsidies are used to purchase construct or otherwise form fixed assets intangible

assets and other long-term assets as expressly stipulated in government documents then such subsidies

are deemed as asset-related government subsidies.The specific standards for the Company to classify government subsidies into income-related

government subsidies are as follows:

If the government subsidies (excluding asset-related subsidies) are used to compensate relevant

costs or losses of the Company that have been already incurred or to be incurred in subsequent periods

then such subsidies are deemed as income-related government subsidies.Where there is no express regulation on the object of subsidies in government documents then the

Company will classify the government subsidies as assets-related or income-related depending on the

specific purpose that the subsidies are used for.

(2) Timing of recognition

Government subsidies are recognized when the Company can meet the conditions attached and can

receive them.

(3) Accounting treatment

Government subsidies related to assets shall offset the carrying amount of relevant assets or be

recognized as deferred income. If it is recognized as deferred income it shall be included in the current

profit and loss in a reasonable and systematic way within the useful life of the relevant assets (if it is

related to the daily activities of the Company it shall be included in other income; otherwise it shall be

included in the non-operating income);

Government subsidies related to income that are used for compensation for the relevant costs or

losses of the Company in subsequent periods are recognized as deferred income and are included in the

current profit or loss in the period in which the relevant costs expenses or losses are recognized (if they

are related to the daily activities of the Company they shall be included in other income; otherwise they

shall be included in the non-operating income) or offset the relevant costs or losses; Government

subsidies related to income that are used for compensation for the relevant costs or losses that the

Company has already incurred shall be directly included in the current profit or loss (if they are related

to the daily activities of the Company they shall be included in other income; otherwise they shall be

included in the non-operating income) or offset the relevant costs or losses.The Company’s policy-based concessional loans are classified into the following two conditions

and are accounted for respectively:

* If the lending bank provides loans to the Company at a policy-based preferential interest rate

after the Ministry of Finance allocates the interest-grant funds to the lending bank the actual borrowing

amount received is recognized as the entry value of the borrowing and the relevant borrowing expenses

are measured in accordance with the principal amount of the borrowing and policy-based preferential

interest rate.* When the government directly distributes the interest-grant funds to the Company the

corresponding discount will offset the relevant borrowing costs.

121 / 233Annual Report 2025

37. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Income taxes include current income tax and deferred income tax. Except for income tax arising

from business combination and transactions or events that are directly included in owners’ equity

(including other comprehensive income) the Company includes current income tax and deferred income

tax in the current profit or loss.Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are calculated and recognized based

on the difference (temporary difference) between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying

value.Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be

available against which deductible temporary differences can be offset. For deductible losses and tax

credits that can be reversed in the future period deferred tax assets shall be recognized to the extent that

it is probable that taxable profit will be available in the future to offset the deductible losses and tax

credits.Save as the exceptions deferred tax liabilities shall be recognized for the taxable temporary

difference.The exceptions for not recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities include:

* the initial recognition of the goodwill;

* other transactions or matters other than enterprise merger in which neither profit nor taxable

income (or deductible loss) will be affected when transactions occur and the initial recognition of assets

and liabilities does not result in taxable temporary differences and deductible temporary differences of

equal amount

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences arising from the

investments in subsidiaries joint ventures and associates except to the extent that both of the following

conditions are satisfied: the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary

differences; and it is likely that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences associated with

investments in subsidiaries joint ventures and associates if all of the following conditions are satisfied:

It is likely that the deductible temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and it is likely

that taxable profit in the future will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can

be offset.At the balance sheet date deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at tax rates

expected to be applied to the period when the assets are recovered or the liabilities are settled according

to the tax law.At the balance sheet date the Company reviews the carrying value of deferred income tax assets.The carrying value of the deferred income tax assets are reduced if it is unlikely to obtain sufficient

taxable income to offset the benefit of the deferred income tax assets in the future. When it is likely that

sufficient taxable income will be available the amount of write-down is reversed.

38. Lease

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

A lease is a contract whereby the lessor conveys to the lessee the right to use an asset in exchange

for consideration. On the commencement date of the contract the Company assesses whether the

contract is or contains a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if one party to the contract gives the

right to control the use of an identified asset or identified assets for a period of time in exchange for

consideration.If the contract contains multiple separate leases simultaneously the Company will split the contract

and conduct separate accounting treatment for each separate lease. If the contract contains lease

components and non-lease components simultaneously the lessee and the lessor will split the lease

components and the non-lease components.Judgmental basis and accounting treatment of short-term leases and leases of low-value assets for

which a simplified treatment is adopted as the lessee

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

The Company as the lessee

122 / 233Annual Report 2025

(1) Right-of-use assets

At the commencement date of the lease term the Company recognizes right-of-use assets for leases

other than short-term leases and low-value asset leases. Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost.The cost comprises:

* the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability;

* any lease payments made at or before the commencement date of the lease term less any lease

incentives received;

* any initial direct costs incurred by the Company; and

* an estimate of costs to be incurred by the Company in dismantling and removing the leased asset

restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the leased asset to the condition required by the

terms and conditions of the lease unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories.The Company subsequently adopts the straight-line method to depreciate the right-of-use assets. If

it can be reasonably determined that the ownership of the leased asset can be acquired upon the expiry of

the lease term depreciation will be prepared during the remaining useful life of the leased asset;

otherwise depreciation will be prepared during the lease term or the remaining useful life of the leased

asset whichever is shorter.The Company determines whether the right-of-use asset has been impaired in accordance with the

principles described in Note “V (27) Impairment of long-term assets” and performs accounting

treatment for the identified impairment losses.

(2) Lease liabilities

At the commencement date of the lease term the Company recognizes lease liabilities for leases

other than short-term leases and low-value asset leases. Lease liabilities are initially measured at the

present value of the lease payments that are not paid. Lease payments comprise:

* fixed payments (including substantial fixed payments) less any lease incentives received;

* variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate;

* amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees provided by the

Company;

* the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option;

and

* Payments for exercising an option to terminate the lease if the lease term reflects the lessee

exercising an option to terminate the lease.The Company uses the interest rate implicit in lease as the discount rate but if the interest rate

implicit in lease cannot be reasonably determined the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used as

the discount rate.The Company calculates the interest expense of the lease liability in each period of the lease term

according to the fixed periodic interest rate and includes it in the current profit and loss or the related

asset costs.Variable lease payments excluded in the measurement of lease liabilities are included in the current

profit and loss or the related asset costs when they are actually incurred.After the commencement date of the lease term the Company re-measures the lease liabilities and

adjusts the corresponding right-of-use assets under the following circumstances. If the carrying amount

of the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero but the lease liabilities still need to be further reduced the

difference is included in the current profit and loss:

* when there is a change in the assessment result of an option to purchase renew or terminate the

lease or the actual exercise of the aforementioned options is inconsistent with the original assessment

result the Company remeasures the lease liabilities at the present value calculated according to the

changed lease payments and the revised discount rate; and

* When there is a change in the substantial fixed payments a change in the amounts expected to be

payable under a residual value guarantee or a change in an index or a rate used to determine the lease

payments the Company remeasures the lease liabilities at the present value calculated according to the

changed lease payments and the unchanged discount rate. However the present value is calculated

according to the revised discount rate if the change in lease payments is caused by a change in floating

interest rates.

(3) Short-term leases and low-value asset leases

123 / 233Annual Report 2025

The Company chooses not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases

and low-value asset leases and includes relevant lease payments in the current profit and loss or related

asset costs over the lease term on straight-line basis. A short-term lease is a lease that at the

commencement date has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not contain a purchase option. A

low-value asset lease is a lease with a lower value when a single leased asset is a brand-new asset. If the

Company subleases or expects to sublease a leased asset the original lease is not a low-value asset lease.

(4) Lease modifications

The Company accounts for a lease modification as a separate lease if the following conditions are

satisfied simultaneously:

* the lease modification increases the lease scope by adding the right to use one or more lease assets;

and

* the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone price

for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price to reflect the

circumstances of the particular contract.When a lease modification is not treated as a separate lease at the effective date of the lease

modification the Company re-allocates the consideration of the contract after the change re-determines

the lease term and remeasures the lease liability at the present value calculated according to the changed

lease payments and the revised discount rate.When a lease modification decreases the lease scope or shortens the lease term the Company

reduces the carrying value of the right-of-use asset and includes the relevant gain or loss resulting from

partial of full termination of the lease in the current profit and loss. When other lease modifications

result in re-measurement of the lease liability the Company adjusts the carrying value of the right-of-use

asset accordingly.

(5) Sale and leaseback

The Company assesses and determines whether the transfer of the asset in the sale and leaseback

transactions is a sale according to Note “V (34) Income”.When the transfer of the asset in the sale and leaseback transactions is a sale the Company as the

lessor measures the right-of-use asset arising from the sale and leaseback at the proportion of the

previous carrying amount of the asset that relates to the right of use retained through leaseback and

recognizes the relevant gain or loss at the amount that relates to the rights transferred to the lessor.For details on the subsequent measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and leasemodifications after the commencement date of the lease term please refer to “1. The Company as thelessee” under Note “V (38) Lease”. When subsequently measuring the lease liabilities arising from a sale

and leaseback the Company determines the lease payments or the modified lease payments in a manner

that does not result in the recognition of gains or losses related to the right-of-use acquired through the

leaseback.When the transfer of the asset in the sale and leaseback transactions is not a sale the Company as

the lessor continues to recognize the transferred assets and also recognizes a financial liability equal tothe transfer income. Details of accounting treatment of financial liabilities are set out in Note “V (11)Financial Instruments”.Criteria for classification and accounting treatment of leases as the lessor

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

At the commencement date of the lease term the Company classifies lease into finance lease and

operating lease. Finance lease refers to a lease that has transferred in substance all the risks and rewards

related to the ownership of an asset regardless of whether the ownership is ultimately transferred.Operating lease refers to a lease other than a finance lease. When the Company acts as a sublease lessor

it classifies the sublease based on the right-of-use asset arising from the original lease.

(1) Accounting treatment of operating leases

Lease receipts from operating leases are recognized as rental income over the lease term on

straight-line basis. The Company capitalizes the initial direct expenses incurred in relation to operating

leases and amortizes and includes them in the current profit and loss on the same basis as the rental

income is recognized during the lease term. Variable lease payments excluded in lease receipts are

included in the current profit and loss when they are actually incurred. In case of any operating lease

124 / 233Annual Report 2025

modification the Company will account for it as a new lease from the effective date of the modification

and regard the lease advance or lease receivable related to the lease before the modification as the receipt

from the new lease.

(2) Accounting treatment of finance leases

At the commencement of the lease the Company recognizes a finance lease receivable for a finance

lease and derecognizes finance lease assets. At the initial measurement of the finance lease receivable

the Company regards the net investment in the lease as the entry value of the finance lease receivable.Net investment in the lease is the sum of the following items discounted at the interest rate implicit in

lease: any unguaranteed residual value; and any lease receipt which is received at the commencement of

the lease.The Company calculates and recognizes the interest income over the lease term at the fixed

periodic interest rate. Derecognition and impairment of finance lease receivables are subject to the

accounting treatment in accordance with Note “V (11) Financial Instruments”.Variable lease payments excluded in net investment in the lease are included in measurement the

current profit and loss when they are actually incurred.The Company accounts for a finance lease modification as a separate lease if the following

conditions are satisfied simultaneously:

* the modification increases the lease scope by adding the right to use one or more lease assets; and

* the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone price

for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price to reflect the

circumstances of the particular contract.When a finance lease modification is not treated as a separate lease the Company accounts for the

modified lease as follows:

* if the lease would have been classified as an operating lease had the modification been in effect at

the commencement date the Company accounts for the lease modification as a new lease from the

effective date of the modification and measures the carrying value of the lease asset as the net

investment in the lease immediately before the effective date of the lease modification.* if the lease would have been classified as a finance lease had the modification been in effect at the

commencement date the Company accounts for the lease modification according to the policies for

modification or renegotiation of contracts in Note “V (11) Financial Instruments”.

(3) Sale and leaseback transactions

The Company assesses and determines whether the transfer of the asset in the sale and leaseback

transactions is a sale according to Note “V (34) Income”.When the transfer of the asset in the sale and leaseback transactions is a sale the Company as the

lessor accounts for the purchase of the asset and accounts for the lease of the asset in accordance with

the aforementioned policy in “2. The Company as the lessor”; When the transfer of the asset in the sale

and leaseback transactions is not a sale the Company as the lessor does not recognize the transferred

asset but recognizes a financial asset equal to the transfer income. Details of accounting treatment of

financial assets are set out in Note “V (11) Financial Instruments”.

39. Other significant accounting policies and accounting estimates

√ Applicable □ Not applicable

Hedge accounting

(1) Classification of hedging

* Fair value hedge is a hedge of the exposure to changes in fair value of a recognized asset or

liability or an unrecognized firm commitment (except for foreign exchange risk).* Cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to changes in cash flows. Such changes in cash

flows mainly come from a specific type of risk related to a recognized asset or liability or an expected

transaction that is likely to occur or the foreign exchange risk included in an unrecognized firm

commitment.* Hedge of net investment in an overseas operation is a hedge of the foreign exchange exposure

arising from net investment in an overseas operation. Net investment in an overseas operation refers to

an enterprise’s equity proportion in the net assets in an overseas operation.

125 / 233Annual Report 2025

(2) Designation of hedging relationship and confirmation of hedging effectiveness

At the commencement of the hedging relationship the Company shall specify the hedging

relationship formally and prepare a formal written document on the hedging relationship risk

management objectives and the strategies of hedging. This document shall at least specify the contents

and number of the hedging instruments the nature and number of the hedged items the nature of the

hedged risk the type of hedge and the evaluation of the Company on the effectiveness of the hedging

instruments. Hedging effectiveness refers to the extent that the changes in the fair value or cash flow of a

hedging instrument may offset the changes resulted from the hedging risks in the fair value or cash flow

of a hedged item.The Company shall continuously evaluate the hedging effectiveness to determine whether the

hedging meets the requirements on effectiveness for using hedging accounting within the accounting

period when the hedging relationship is specified. If the hedging fails to meet the requirements the use

of hedging relationship shall be terminated.The use of hedge accounting shall meet the following requirements for the hedging effectiveness:

* There is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument.* In the value change caused by the economic relationship between the hedged item and the

hedging instrument the influence of credit risk is not dominant.* An appropriate hedging ratio is adopted and this ratio will not form an imbalance in the relative

weight of the hedged item and the hedging instrument thereby generating accounting results that are

inconsistent with the hedge accounting objectives. If the hedging ratio is no longer appropriate but the

hedging risk management objectives have not changed the number of hedged items or hedging

instruments shall be adjusted so that the hedging ratio meets the requirements on effectiveness again.

(3) Accounting treatment method of hedge

* Fair value hedge

Changes in the fair value of hedging derivatives are included in the current profit and loss. Changes

in the fair value of a hedged item due to hedging risk are included in the current profit and loss while

adjusting the book value of the hedged item.For fair value hedges related to financial instruments measured at amortized cost adjustments to

the carrying value of the hedged item are amortized in the remaining period between the adjustment date

and the maturity date and are included in the current profit and loss. Amortization carried out in

accordance with the effective interest rate method can begin immediately after the adjustment of the

carrying value and shall not be later than the adjustment made due to the changes in the fair values

caused by the hedging risk after the hedged item is terminated.If the hedged item is derecognized the un-amortized fair value is recognized as current profit or

loss.If the hedged item is an unrecognized firm commitment the accumulated changes in the fair value

of the firm commitment caused due to the hedged risk is recognized as an asset or liability and the

related gains or losses are included in the current profit and loss. Changes in the fair value of hedging

instruments are also included in the current profit and loss.* Cash flow hedge

The portion of the gains or losses from hedging instruments which belongs to the effective hedge

shall be directly recognized as other comprehensive income and the portion which belongs to the

ineffective hedge shall be included in the current profit and loss.If the hedged transaction affects the current profit or loss for example when the hedged financial

income or financial expense is confirmed or the expected sale occurs the amount recognized in other

comprehensive income will be transferred to the current profit and loss. If the hedged item is the cost of

a non-financial asset or liability the amount originally recognized in other comprehensive income is

transferred out and included in the initial recognition amount of the non-financial asset or liability (or the

amount originally recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred out in the same period in

which the non-financial asset or liability affects the profit and loss and included in the current profit and

loss).If the expected transaction or firm commitment is not expected to occur the cumulative gains or

losses of hedging instruments previously included in other comprehensive income are transferred out

and included in the current profit or loss. If the hedging instrument expires is sold terminated or

exercised (but has not been replaced or extended) or the designation of the hedging relationship is

126 / 233Annual Report 2025

revoked the amount previously included in other comprehensive income will not be transferred out until

the expected transaction or firm commitment affects the current profit and loss.* Hedge of net investment in an overseas operation

Hedge of net investment in an overseas operation including hedge of monetary items as part of net

investment is handled similarly to cash flow hedge. The portion of the gains or losses from hedging

instruments which is recognized as effective hedge shall be recorded in other comprehensive income

and the portion which is recognized as ineffective hedge shall be included in the current profit and loss.When disposing of overseas operations any accumulated gains or losses included in other

comprehensive income are transferred out and included in the current profit or loss.Repurchase of the Company’s shares

The Company manages the repurchased shares as treasury shares before cancellation or transfer

and transfers all the expenses for the repurchase to the costs of treasury shares. The consideration and

transaction costs paid for the repurchase reduce the owner’s equity and no gain or loss is recognized

when the Company’s shares are repurchased transferred or cancelled.

(1) Where the Company’s shares are acquired for reasons such as reduction of registered capital or

reward to employees they will be treated as treasury shares based on the amount actually paid for the

repurchase and also be registered for future reference. If the repurchased shares are cancelled the

difference between the total nominal value of the shares calculated based on the nominal value and

number of the cancelled shares and the amount actually paid for the repurchase will be offset against the

capital reserve and if the capital reserve is insufficient to offset the remaining difference will be offset

against the retained earnings. If the repurchased shares are awarded to employees of the Company as

equity-settled share-based payment when receiving the price from the exercise by the employees of the

option to purchase the Company’s shares the Company resells and delivers the cost of employees’

treasury shares and the accumulated amount of capital reserves (other capital reserves) during the

waiting period and adjusts the capital reserve (share premium) based on the difference between them.

(2) For the shares repurchased in accordance with the equity incentive plan the Company will

repurchase and cancel the restricted stocks that fail to meet the unlocking conditions. For the stocks

required to be repurchased due to failure to unlocking conditions for restricted stocks the Company

debits them to “Other payables - Repurchase obligations of restricted stocks” and other subjects and

credits them to “Bank deposits” and other subjects. At the same time the Company debits the amount of

share capital corresponding to the number of cancelled restricted stocks in the subject of “Share capital”

credits the carrying value of the treasury stocks corresponding to the number of cancelled restricted

stocks in the subject of “Treasury shares” and debits the difference of them to the subject of “CapitalReserve - Share premium”.Debt reorganisation

(1) The Company as the creditor

The Company terminates the recognition of claims when the contractual right to receive the cash

flow from claims terminates. In the event of debt reorganisation by means of extinguishing debts with

assets or converting debts into equity instruments the Company recognises the corresponding assets

when they meet the definition and the conditions for recognition.In the event of debt reorganisation by means of extinguishing debts with assets the Company

measures the transferred non-financial assets at cost upon initial recognition. The cost of inventory

includes the fair value of waived claims and other costs directly attributable to the asset such as taxes

transportation and handling fees insurance premiums and other costs incurred in bringing the asset to its

current position and condition. The cost of an investment in an associated enterprise or joint venture

includes other costs such as the fair value of waived claims and taxes directly attributable to the asset.The cost of an investment property includes the fair value of waived claims and other costs such as

taxes directly attributable to the asset. The cost of a fixed asset includes the fair value of waived claims

and other costs directly attributable to the asset such as taxes transportation handling and installation

fees service fees to professionals and other costs incurred in bringing the asset to the predetermined

state for use. The cost of a biological asset includes the fair value of waived claims and other costs such

as taxes directly attributable to the asset. The cost of an intangible asset includes the fair value of

waived claims and other costs such as taxes incurred in bringing the asset to its intended use. Where

debt reorganisation by converting debts into equity instruments causes creditors to convert their claims

into equity investments in an associated enterprise or joint venture the Company measures the initial

127 / 233Annual Report 2025

investment cost at the fair value of waived claims and other costs such as taxes directly attributable to

the asset. The difference between the fair value of waived claims and the carrying amount is included in

the profit or loss for the current period.For debt reorganisation by means of modifying other terms the Company recognises and measures

reorganised claims according to Note “V (11) Financial Instruments”.For debt reorganisation by means of extinguishing debts with multiple assets or by multiple means

the Company first recognises and measures transferred financial assets and reorganised claims according

to Note “V (11) Financial Instruments” and then distributes the net fair value of waived claims after

deducting the recognised amounts of transferred financial assets and reorganised claims according to the

proportion of the fair value of the assets other than the transferred financial assets and on that basis

separately determines the cost of each asset according to the aforementioned method. The difference

between the fair value of waived claims and the carrying amount is included in the profit or loss for the

current period.

(2) The Company as the debtor

The Company terminates the recognition of debts when its current obligation for debts is

discharged.In the event of debt reorganisation by means of extinguishing debts with assets the Company

terminates recognition when the corresponding assets and the debts to be extinguished meet the

conditions for termination of recognition and the difference between the carrying amount of the debts to

be extinguished and that of transferred assets is included in the profit or loss for the current period.In the event of debt reorganisation by means of converting debts into equity instruments the

Company terminates recognition when the debts to be extinguished meet the conditions for termination

of recognition. Upon initial recognition of equity instruments the Company measures at the fair value of

the equity instruments. If the fair value of equity instruments cannot be reliably measured the Company

measures at the fair value of the debts to be extinguished. The difference between the carrying amount of

the debts to be extinguished and the recognised amounts of equity instruments shall be included in the

profit or loss for the current period.For debt reorganisation by means of modifying other terms the Company recognises and measures

reorganised debts according to Note “V (11) Financial Instruments”.For debt reorganisation by means of extinguishing debts with multiple assets or by multiple means

the Company recognises and measures equity instruments and reorganised debts according to the

aforementioned methods and includes the difference between the carrying amount of the debts to be

extinguished and the sum of the carrying amount of transferred assets and the recognised amounts of

equity instruments and debts to be extinguished in the profit or loss for the current period.Segment reporting

The Company determines the operating segment based on the internal organizational structure

management requirements and internal reporting system and determines the reporting segment based

on the operating segment and discloses segment information.Operating segment refers to the component of the Company that meets the following conditions

simultaneously: (1) the component can generate income and incur expenses in daily activities; (2) the

management of the Company can regularly evaluate the operating results of the component to decide to

allocate resources to it and evaluate its performance; and (3) the Company can obtain relevant

accounting information such as the financial status operating results and cash flow of the component. If

two or more operating segments have similar economic characteristics and meet certain conditions they

can be combined into one operating segment.

Implementation of Q&A on Accounting Treatment for Standard Warehouse Receipt Transactions

under the Financial Instruments Standard

On July 8 2025 the Ministry of Finance issued the Implementation Q&A on Accounting

Treatment for Standard Warehouse Receipt (SWR) Transactions clearly stipulating that under the

Financial Instruments Recognition and Measurement Standard the act of an enterprise frequently

entering into SWR buy-and-sell contracts on a futures trading venue to earn price differences without

128 / 233Annual Report 2025

taking delivery of the underlying commodities typically indicates a practice of selling the contracts

shortly after acquisition to profit from short-term price fluctuations. In such cases the contracts shall be

treated as financial instruments and accounted for in accordance with the Financial Instruments

Recognition and Measurement Standard. For SWRs acquired under such contracts and subsequently sold

within a short period revenue from sales shall not be recognized. Instead the difference between the

consideration received and the carrying amount of the SWR sold shall be recorded as investment income

and SWRs held at the end of the reporting period that have not yet been sold shall be classified as other

current assets. Enterprises may elect at initial recognition to measure SWRs acquired under these

contracts at fair value with changes recognized in profit or loss provided this can eliminate or

significantly reduce accounting mismatches. This election must be applied consistently to all SWRs

meeting the criteria. Once SWRs are designated at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition

the election cannot be revoked in subsequent periods.According to the Notice on Strict Implementation of the Enterprise Accounting Standards and

Proper Preparation of 2025 Annual Reports (Caikuai [2025] No. 33) enterprises adjusting accounting

treatments due to the above SWR provisions shall restate comparable periods in their financial

statements. The implementation of these provisions did not have a material impact on the Company’s

financial position or operating results.

(III) Market risk

Market risk of financial instruments is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial

instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market prices including exchange rate risk interest rate risk

and other price risks.

1. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will

fluctuate due to changes in market rates.Interest-bearing financial instruments with fixed and floating rates expose the Company to fair

value interest rate risk and cash flow interest rate risk respectively. The Company determines the

percentages of fixed interest rate instruments and floating interest rate instruments according to the

market environment and maintains an appropriate combination of fixed interest rate instruments and

floating interest rate instruments through regular review and monitoring. When necessary the Company

adopts interest rate swap instruments to hedge the interest rate risk.As of December 31 2025 assuming all other variables remain constant a 100 basis points increase

or decrease in the borrowing interest rate calculated at a floating rate will result in a decrease or increase

of RMB280.96 in the net profit of the Company (as of December 31 2024: RMB3.51 million).

2. Exchange rate risk

Exchange rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will

fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates.The Company continuously monitors the scale of foreign-currency transactions and

foreign-currency assets and liabilities to minimize foreign exchange risks. In addition the Company may

also sign forward foreign exchange contracts or currency swap contracts to avoid exchange rate risk.During the current period and prior periods the Company did not sign any forward foreign exchange

contracts or currency swap contracts.

204 / 233Annual Report 2025

Foreign exchange risk faced by the Company mainly comes from financial assets and liabilities

denominated in USD and the amounts of foreign currency financial assets and liabilities converted into

RMB are shown below:

liabilities

As of December 31 2025 assuming all other variables remain constant a 5% appreciation or

depreciation of the RMB against USD will result in an increase or decrease of RMB12.57 million in the

net profit of the Company (as of December 31 2024: RMB14.53 million).

3. Other price risk

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will

fluctuate because of changes in market prices other than exchange rate risk and interest rate risk.The Company’s other price risk arises mainly from investments in various types of equity

instruments and is subject to the risk of changes in the price of equity instruments.

According to the Company’s internal organizational structure management requirements and

internal reporting system two reporting segments are identified namely: direct office supplies business

and traditional business. The Company’s reporting segments provide different products or services or

engages in operational activities in different regions. Since each segment requires different technical or

marketing strategies the management of the Company separately manages the operating activities of

each reporting segment and regularly evaluates the operating results of these reporting segments to

determine the allocation of resources to them and the evaluation of their performance.The transfer price between segments is determined on the basis of the actual transaction price and

the expenses indirectly attributable to each segment are grouped according to the actual share of each

segment. Allocation among segments is conducted accordingly. Assets are allocated according to the

operation of the segment and the location of the asset. Segment liabilities include liabilities that can be

attributed to the segment formed by the segment’s operating activities. If the expenses associated with

liabilities shared by multiple operating segments are allocated to these operating segments the jointly

assumed liabilities are also allocated to these operating segments.
