INTERIM REPORT 2022III Management Discussion and Analysis

I. Principal activities of the Company during the Reporting Period

(I) Industry overview and industry position

The industry in which the Company operates is the paper making and paper product industry. After decades of

development the Company has developed into a large modern conglomerate principally engaged in pulp production

and paper making. Its key indicators in respect of economic efficiency have been in a leading position in the industry

for more than 20 years in a row. The Company has been on the Fortune 500 China list for 13 consecutive years.Taking “revitalising the Chinese papermaking industry” as its mission the Company has been adhering to its green

development philosophy committing itself to implementing a pulp and paper integration strategy and promoting the

integrated development in the industry chain and the value chain. The Company has established 6 production bases in

among others Shandong Guangdong Hubei Jiangxi and Jilin with annual pulp and paper production capacity of more

than 11 million tonnes. It is the first large-scale integrated pulp and paper company in China that achieves a balance

between pulp and paper production.In the first half of 2022 affected by factors such as the evolution of public health events the changing international

political landscape and high inflation commodity prices and international logistics prices surged resulting in a

significant increase in operating costs of papermaking companies. In the downstream market the price transmission

mechanism did not work due to weak demand in the domestic market resulting in lower machine-made paper prices

than the corresponding period of the prior year and limiting the scope for corporate earnings. According to the National

Bureau of Statistics of China the total profit of the paper making and paper product industry from January to June 2022

amounted to RMB25.99 billion representing a year-on-year decrease of 46.2%. Recently large pulp companies such as

Arauco in Chile had announced their expansion and production plans which would be expected to mitigate the pressure

on pulp supply. In addition raw material prices would be expected to fall due to the global tightening of monetary policy

and declining inflation. At the same time with the epidemic under better control and the implementation of the policies

to stabilise growth in China domestic demand would improve. It was expected that the papermaking industry would

rebound gradually with recovery in profitability for the industry.Although the complex and changing external environment increased the difficulty factor of corporate development

the Company consolidated its profitability by strengthening its internal management optimising its cost structure

checking raw material cost hikes and seizing opportunities in overseas markets. During the reporting period the

Company recorded machine-made paper production of 2.58 million tonnes and sales of 2.69 million tonnes revenue of

RMB16676 million and total profit of RMB275 million.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 9

XI. Risk factors of the Company and the measures to be taken

1. Macroeconomic and policy risk

As a basic raw materials industry the papermaking industry is supported by national industry policies in many ways. Its

prosperity is closely related to national macroeconomic policies. With a view to improving industry structure enhancing

product technology standard energy saving and emission reduction and eliminating outdated production capacity

relevant departments have issued the Policy on the Development of Papermaking Industry to promote the high-quality

development of the papermaking industry. If the support of relevant national industrial policies is weakened in the future

or the above-mentioned industrial policies or economic policies such as fiscal financial taxation and import and export

policies are adjusted the operation and development of the Company will be affected.The Company pays attention to various policies and regulations of relevant industries in China in a timely manner and

actively adjusts its business development strategy in a timely manner based on the policy orientation. While focusing

on the development of its principal activities i.e. pulp production and paper making the Company adheres to its

innovation-driven strategy and comprehensively optimise its industrial structure and regional layout. thus ensuring

that the development of its principal activities is in compliance with the requirements of the policies of the industries

and realising steady growth in its operating results. The Company will also strengthen the financial information system

construction regulate financial management expand financing channels lower capital cost and strengthen its aversion

capability against macro-economic risk.

2. Environmental protection risk

The paper making industry is a heavily polluting industry listed by the Ministry of Environmental Protection. As China’s

ecological civilisation construction enters a critical period of focusing on carbon reduction promoting synergy of

pollution reduction and carbon reduction promoting comprehensive green transformation of economic and social

development and realising the improvement of ecological environment quality from quantitative changes to qualitative

changes relevant departments have successively formulated and issued a series of policies such as Guiding Opinions

on Accelerating the Establishment of a Sound Economic System with Green Low-carbon and Circular Development the

Announcement on Adjusting the Catalogue of Prohibited Products in Processing Trade the 14th Five-Year Plan for the

Implementation of National Clean Production and the Implementation Plan for Carbon Peaking in the Industrial Sector.Environmental protection requirements are becoming more and more stringent. With the higher national environmental

protection standards the Company further increases its investment in pollution governance which will increase the

Company’s operating costs in the short term.The Company always adheres to the development idea of “placing green development and environmental protectionas its priority” widely adopts new technologies for energy saving and emission reduction fully implements clean

production and strives to achieve its waste emission target. In recent years the Company has invested RMB8000

million in total and actively supported the construction of projects such as alkali recycling middle water treatment

and middle water reuse. Relying on technological innovation the Company comprehensively carries out environmentalprotection governance. At present the Company adopts the world’s most advanced “ultrafiltration membrane + reverseosmosis membrane” technology to complete the reclaimed water recycling membrane treatment project. The reclaimed

water recycle rate reaches more than 75% and the reclaimed water quality meets drinking water standards. At the

same time the Company actively explores the comprehensive utilisation of innovative resources and industrial recyclingdevelopment models and built three major circular economy ecological chains of “resources-products-renewableresources” further improving its green level.

INTERIM REPORT 2022III Management Discussion and Analysis

XI. Risk factors of the Company and the measures to be taken (Cont’d)

3. Risk of price fluctuation of raw materials

Wood pulp and wood clips are the major raw materials of the industry. If the prices of wood pulp and wood chips

fluctuate sharply in the future they will bring upward pressure on the production costs of enterprises which will have a

certain impact on the normal production and operation of enterprises in the industry.The Company strives to implement the development strategy of pulp and paper integration. At present its production

capacity of pulp has reached 4.3 million tonnes and it has cultivated a strong self-sufficiency of wood pulp. At the same

time the Company has established a more comprehensive supply chain management mechanism and practiced source

procurement to reduce procurement costs. The Company continued to improve its production technology improved the

utilisation rate of raw materials and optimised operational efficiency to reduce the risk of raw material price fluctuations

to the Company.

4. Risk of intensifying market competition

As a strategic and fundamental industry closely related to the national economy the papermaking industry continuously

matures along with the steady development of the Chinese economy. Although the papermaking industry has

accelerated the elimination of outdated production capacity after several rounds of environmental protection policies

and its structure has been optimised there remains the phenomena of a large number of enterprises excess and

scattered production capacity a large number of mid- and low-end products and product homogeneity. In addition

technological upgrade in the papermaking industry is relatively rapid and related products are replaced quite often thus

causing a fierce market competition.The Company actively studies the development trend of the industry correctly grasps the market dynamics in a

timely manner and reduces its production costs and achieves increased production and efficiency by adjusting and

optimising technological processes. It adheres to being market-oriented enhances its R&D and innovation capabilities

produces products that meet market demand and enriches products types and application fields. It also improves the

professional level of its sales staff expands sales channels strengthens business cooperation with customers provides

comprehensive customer services and increases its market share.

5. Risk on financial leasing business

The Company may suffer from loss if the lessees of its financial leasing business cannot make full rental payment on

time due to any reason and there are abuses on equipment or any other short-term behaviour. Although the risk of such

rental being unrecoverable is minimal the Company will also make bad debt provision as required under its accounting

policy. If such amounts cannot be recovered on time the Company may be exposed to risk of bad debts.Chenming Leasing has comprehensive risk prevention and control measures for the financial leasing business with

strong risk resistance and low risk of default. At present Chenming Leasing continues to implement the business

strategy of continuous reduction which effectively put risk exposures under control.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 23

amounts as recorded by the ultimate controlling party in the consolidated financial statements at the combination

date except for the adjustments of different accounting policies. The difference between the carrying amount

subsidiaries for the period attributable to minority interest is presented in the consolidated income statement

under the “profit or loss of minority interest”. When the amount of loss attributable to the minority shareholders of

a subsidiary exceeds the minority shareholders’ portion of the opening balance of owners’ equity of the subsidiary

the excess amount shall be allocated against minority interest.

(3) Acquisition of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries

The difference between the long-term equity investments costs acquired by the acquisition of non-controlling

interests and the share of the net assets from subsidiaries from the date of acquisition or the date of combination

based on the new shareholding ratio as well as the difference between the proceeds from the partial disposal

of the equity investment without losing control over its subsidiary and the disposal of the long-term equity

investment corresponding to the share of the net assets of the subsidiaries from the date of acquisition or the date

of combination is adjusted to the capital reserve (share capital premium) if the capital reserve is not sufficient

any excess is adjusted to retained earnings.

(4) Accounting treatment for loss of control over subsidiaries

For the loss of control over a subsidiary due to disposal of a portion of the equity investment or other reasons

the remaining equity is measured at fair value on the date when the control is lost. The difference arising from

the sum of consideration received for disposal of equity interest and the fair value of remaining equity interest

over the sun of the share of the carrying amount of net assets of the former subsidiary calculated continuously

from the purchase date based on the shareholding percentage before disposal and the goodwill is recognised as

investment income in the period when the control is lost.Other comprehensive income related to equity investment in the former subsidiary shall be transferred to current

profit or loss at the time when the control is lost except for other comprehensive income arising from changes in

net assets or net liabilities due to remeasurement of defined benefit plan by the investee.

10. Financial instruments

A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one party and a financial liability or equity instrument

of another party.

(1) Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments

Financial asset or financial liability will be recognised when the Company became one of the parties under a

financial instrument contract.Financial asset that satisfied any of the following criteria shall be derecognised:

* the contract right to receive the cash flows of the financial asset has terminated;

* the financial asset has been transferred and meets the derecognition criteria for the transfer of financial

asset as described below.A financial liability (or a part thereof) is derecognised only when the present obligation is discharged in full or in

part. If an agreement is entered between the Company (debtor) and a creditor to replace the existing financial

liabilities with new financial liabilities and the contractual terms of the new financial liabilities are substantially

different from those of the existing financial liabilities the existing financial liabilities shall be derecognised and the

new financial liabilities shall be recognised.Conventionally traded financial assets shall be recognised and derecognised at the trading date.

(2) Classification and measurement of financial assets

The Company classifies the financial assets according to the business model for managing the financial assets

and characteristics of the contractual cash flows as follows: financial assets measured at amortised cost financial

assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets measured at fair value

through profit or loss.Financial assets measured at amortised cost

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated

at fair value through other comprehensive income:

The Company’s business model for managing such financial assets is to collect contractual cash flows;

The contractual terms of the financial asset stipulate that cash flows generated on specific dates are solely

payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.Subsequent to initial recognition such financial assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest

method. A gain or loss on a financial asset that is measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging

relationship shall be recognised in profit or loss for the current period when the financial asset is derecognised

amortised using the effective interest method or with impairment recognised.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 79

(2) Classification and measurement of financial assets (Cont’d)

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

A financial asset is classified as measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it meets both of the

following conditions and is not designated at fair value through profit or loss:

The Company’s business model for managing such financial assets is achieved both by collecting collect

contractual cash flows and selling such financial assets;

The contractual terms of the financial asset stipulate that cash flows generated on specific dates are solely

payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.Subsequent to initial recognition such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest calculated

using the effective interest method impairment losses or gains and foreign exchange gains and losses are

recognised in profit or loss for the current period and other gains or losses are recognised in other comprehensive

income. On derecognition the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is

reclassified from other comprehensive income to profit or loss.Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss

The Company classifies the financial assets other than those measured at amortised cost and measured at fair

value through other comprehensive income as financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. Upon

initial recognition the Company irrevocably designates certain financial assets that are required to be measured

at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income as financial assets measured at fair value

through profit or loss in order to eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatch.Upon initial recognition such financial assets are measured at fair value. Except for those held for hedging

purposes gains or losses (including interests and dividend income) arising from such financial assets are

recognised in the profit or loss for the current period.The business model for managing financial assets refers to how the Company manages its financial assets in

order to generate cash flows. That is the Company’s business model determines whether cash flows will result

from collecting contractual cash flows selling financial assets or both. The Company determines the business

model for managing financial assets on the basis of objective facts and specific business objectives for managing

financial assets determined by key management personnel.The Company assesses the characteristics of the contractual cash flows of financial assets to determine whether

the contractual cash flows generated by the relevant financial assets on a specific date are solely payments of

principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The principal refers to the fair value of the financial

assets at the initial recognition. Interest includes consideration for the time value of money for the credit risk

associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending

risks costs and profits. In addition the Company evaluates the contractual terms that may result in a change in

the time distribution or amount of contractual cash flows from a financial asset to determine whether it meets the

requirements of the above contractual cash flow characteristics.

(2) Classification and measurement of financial assets (Cont’d)

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss (Cont’d)

All affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in

the business model where the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets; otherwise

financial assets shall not be reclassified after initial recognition.Financial assets are measured at fair value upon initial recognition. For financial assets measured at fair value

through profit or loss relevant transaction costs are directly recognised in profit or loss for the current period.For other categories of financial assets relevant transaction costs are included in the amount initially recognised.Accounts receivable or notes receivable arising from sales of goods or rendering services without significant

financing component are initially recognised based on the transaction price expected to be entitled by the

Company.

(3) Classification and measurement of financial liabilities

At initial recognition financial liabilities of the Company are classified as financial liabilities measured at fair value

through profit or loss and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost. For financial liabilities not classified

as measured at fair value through profit or loss relevant transaction costs are included in the amount initially

recognised.Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss comprise held-for-trading financial liabilities and

financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. Such financial liabilities

are subsequently measured at fair value and the gains or losses from the change in fair value and the dividend or

interest expenses related to the financial liabilities are included in the profit or loss of the current period.Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost

Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method

and the gains or losses arising from derecognition or amortisation are recognised in profit or loss for the current

period.Classification between financial liabilities and equity instruments

A financial liability is a liability if:

* it has a contractual obligation to pay in cash or other financial assets to other parties.* it has a contractual obligation to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities under potential adverse

condition with other parties.* it is a non-derivative instrument contract which will or may be settled with the entity’s own equity

instruments and the entity will deliver a variable number of its own equity instruments according to such

contract.* it is a derivative instrument contract which will or may be settled with the entity’s own equity instruments

except for a derivative instrument contract that exchanges a fixed amount of cash or other financial asset

with a fixed number of its own equity instruments.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 81

Classification between financial liabilities and equity instruments (Cont’d)

Equity instruments are any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all

of its liabilities.If the Company cannot unconditionally avoid the performance of a contractual obligation by paying cash or

delivering other financial assets the contractual obligation meets the definition of financial liabilities.Where a financial instrument must or may be settled with the Company’s own equity instruments the Company’s

own equity instruments used to settle such instrument should be considered as to whether it is as a substitute

for cash or other financial assets or for the purpose of enabling the holder of the instrument to be entitled to the

remaining interest in the assets of the issuer after deducting all of its liabilities. For the former it is a financial

liability of the Company; for the latter it is the Company’s own equity instruments.

(4) Fair value of financial instruments

The methods for determining the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities are set out in Note V. 41.

(5) Impairment of financial assets

The Company makes provision for impairment based on expected credit losses (ECLs) on the following items:

Financial assets measured at amortised cost;

Receivables and debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income;

Contract assets as defined in the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 – Revenue;

Lease receivables;

Financial guarantee contracts (except those measured at fair value through profit or loss or formed by continuing

involvement of transferred financial assets or the transfer does not qualify for derecognition).

Measurement of ECLs

ECLs are the weighted average of credit losses of financial instruments weighted by the risk of default. Credit

losses refer to the difference between all contractual cash flows receivable according to the contract and

discounted according to the original effective interest rate and all cash flows expected to be received i.e. the

present value of all cash shortages.The Company takes into account reasonable and well-founded information such as past events current conditions

and forecasts of future economic conditions and calculates the probability-weighted amount of the present value

of the difference between the cash flows receivable from the contract and the cash flows expected to be received

weighted by the risk of default.The Company measures ECLs of financial instruments at different stages. If the credit risk of the financial

instrument did not increase significantly upon initial recognition it is at the first stage and the Company makes

provision for impairment based on the ECLs within the next 12 months; if the credit risk of a financial instrument

increased significantly upon initial recognition but has not yet incurred credit impairment it is at the second stage

and the Company makes provision for impairment based on the lifetime ECLs of the instrument; if the financial

instrument incurred credit impairment upon initial recognition it is at the third stage and the Company makes

provision for impairment based on the lifetime ECLs of the instrument.For financial instruments with low credit risk on the balance sheet date the Company assumes that the credit

risk did not increase significantly upon initial recognition and makes provision for impairment based on the ECLs

within the next 12 months.Lifetime ECLs represent the ECLs resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial

instrument. The 12-month ECLs are the ECLs resulting from possible default events on a financial instrument

within 12 months (or a shorter period if the expected life of the financial instrument is less than 12 months) after

the balance sheet date and is a portion of lifetime ECLs.The maximum period to be considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the

Company is exposed to credit risk including renewal options.For the financial instruments at the first and second stages and with low credit risks the Company calculates

the interest income based on the book balance and the effective interest rate before deducting the impairment

provisions. For financial instruments at the third stage interest income is calculated based on the amortised cost

after deducting impairment provisions made from the book balance and the effective interest rate.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 83

Bills receivable and accounts receivable

For bills receivable and accounts receivable regardless of whether there is a significant financing component the

Company always makes provision for impairment at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.When the Company is unable to assess the information of ECLs for an individual financial asset at a reasonable

cost it classifies bills receivable and accounts receivable into portfolios based on the credit risk characteristics

and calculates the ECLs on a portfolio basis. The basis for determining the portfolios is as follows:

A. Bills receivable

Bills receivable portfolio 1: Bank acceptance bills

Bills receivable portfolio 2: Commercial acceptance bills

B. Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable portfolio 1: Due from related party customers

Accounts receivable portfolio 2: Receivables from non-related party customers

Accounts receivable portfolio 3: Factoring receivables

For bills receivable and contract assets classified as a portfolio the Company refers to the historical credit loss

experience combined with the current situation and the forecast of future economic conditions to calculate the

ECLs based on default risk exposure and lifetime ECL rate.For accounts receivable classified as a portfolio the Company refers to the historical credit loss experience

combined with the current situation and the forecast of future economic conditions to prepare a comparison table

of the ageing/overdue days of accounts receivable and the lifetime ECL rate to calculate the ECLs.Other receivables

The Company classifies other receivables into portfolios based on credit risk characteristics and calculates the

ECLs on a portfolio basis. The basis for determining the portfolios is as follows:

Other receivables portfolio 1: Amount due from government authorities

Other receivables portfolio 2: Amount due from related parties

Other receivables portfolio 3: Other receivables

For other receivables classified as a portfolio the Company calculates the ECLs based on default risk exposure

and the ECL rate over the next 12 months or the entire lifetime.

the ECLs based on default risk exposure and lifetime ECL rate.Except for those of finance lease receivables and deposits receivable the ECLs of other receivables and long-term

receivables classified as a portfolio are measured based on default risk exposure and ECL rate over the next 12

months or the entire lifetime.Debt investments and other debt investments

For debt investments and other debt investments the Company measures the ECLs based on the nature of the

investment the types of counterparty and risk exposure and default risk exposure and ECL rate within the next

12 months or the entire lifetime.

Assessment of significant increase in credit risk

In assessing whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly upon initial recognition the

Company compares the risk of default of the financial instrument at the balance sheet date with that at the date

of initial recognition to determine the relative change in risk of default within the expected lifetime of the financial

instrument.In determining whether the credit risk has increased significantly upon initial recognition the Company considers

reasonable and well-founded information including forward-looking information which can be obtained without

unnecessary extra costs or efforts. Information considered by the Company includes:

The debtor’s failure to make payments of principal and interest on their contractually due dates;

An actual or expected significant deterioration in a financial instrument’s external or internal credit rating (if any);

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

Existing or expected changes in the technological market economic or legal environment that have a significant

adverse effect on the debtor’s ability to meet its obligation to the Company.Depending on the nature of the financial instruments the Company assesses whether there has been a significant

increase in credit risk on either an individual basis or a collective basis. When the assessment is performed on a

collective basis the financial instruments are grouped based on their common credit risk characteristics such as

past due information and credit risk ratings.The Company determines that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30

days past due.Credit-impaired financial assets

At balance sheet date the Company assesses whether financial assets measured at amortised cost and debt

investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are credit-impaired. A financial asset is

credit-impaired when one or more events that have an adverse effect on the estimated future cash flows of the

financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable

events:

Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;

A breach of contract by the debtor such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

For economic or contractual reasons relating to the debtor’s financial difficulty the Company having granted to

the debtor a concession that would not otherwise consider;

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

The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties of the issuer or

debtor.

Presentation of provisions for ECLs

ECLs are remeasured at each balance sheet date to reflect changes in the financial instrument’s credit risk upon

initial recognition. Any change in the ECL amount is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss for

the current period. For financial assets measured at amortised cost the provisions of impairment is deducted

from the carrying amount of the financial assets presented in the balance sheet; for debt investments at fair value

through other comprehensive income the Company makes provisions of impairment in other comprehensive

income without reducing the carrying amount of the financial asset.Write-offs

The book balance of a financial asset is directly written off to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of

recovery of the contractual cash flows of the financial asset (either partially or in full). Such write-off constitutes

derecognition of such financial asset. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtor

does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject

to the write-off. However financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in

order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.If a write-off of financial assets is subsequently recovered the recovery is credited to profit or loss in the period in

which the recovery occurs.

(6) Transfer of financial assets

Transfer of financial assets refers to the transfer or delivery of financial assets to another party other than the

issuer of such financial assets (the transferee).If the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset to the

transferee the financial asset shall be derecognised. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards

of ownership of a financial asset the financial asset shall not be derecognised.If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial

asset it accounts for the transaction as follows: if the Company does not retain control it derecognises the

financial asset and recognises any resulting assets or liabilities; if the control over the financial asset is not waived

the relevant financial asset is recognised according to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferred

financial asset and the relevant liability is recognised accordingly.

(7) Offset of financial assets and financial liabilities

If the Company owns the legitimate rights of offsetting the recognised financial assets and financial liabilities

which are enforceable currently and the Company plans to realise the financial assets or to clear off the financial

liabilities on a net amount basis or simultaneously the net amount of financial assets and financial liabilities shall

be presented in the balance sheet upon offsetting. Otherwise financial assets and financial liabilities are presented

separately in the balance sheet without offsetting.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 87

11. Bills receivable

Method for determining the ECLs of bills receivable

The Company measures the loss provisions for bills receivable in accordance with the ECLs amount for the entire

period. Based on the credit risk characteristics of bills receivable bills receivable are divided into different groups:

Item Basis for determining the groups

Bank acceptance bills The acceptance party is a bank with less credit risk

Commercial acceptance bills The acceptance party is a company with higher credit risk

12. Accounts receivable

Method for determining the ECLs of accounts receivable

For receivables and contract assets that do not contain significant financing components the Company measures loss

provisions based on the ECL amount for the entire period.For receivables contract assets and lease receivables that contain significant financing components the Company

chooses to always measure the loss provision based on the ECL amount for the entire period.In addition to accounts receivable and contract assets which are individually assessed for credit risk they are also

classified into different groups based on their credit risk characteristics:

Item Basis for determining the groups

Amount due from related parties This group comprises amounts due from related parties with lower risks.Factoring receivables This group comprises factoring receivables with special risks.Amount due from distributor customers This group comprises receivables with their ageing as credit risk

characteristics.

As for notes receivable and Accounts receivable that classified as measured at fair value through other comprehensive

income the portion within one year (inclusive) from the date of acquisition is presented as financing receivables. For

relevant accounting policies please refer to note V. 10. Financial instruments.

14. Other receivables

Determination and accounting treatment of ECLs of other receivables

The Company measures impairment losses using the ECL amount in the next 12 months or the entire duration based

on whether the credit risk of other receivables has increased significantly upon initial recognition. In addition to other

receivables which are individually assessed for credit risk they are also classified into different groups based on their

credit risk characteristics:

Item Basis for determining the groups

Dividends receivable This group comprises dividends receivable.Interest receivable This group comprises interest due from financial institutions.Amount due from government agencies This group comprises amount due from government agencies with less

risks.Amount due from related parties This group comprises amount due from related parties with less risks.Other receivables This group comprises for all types of deposits advances and premiums

receivable during daily and recurring activities.

15. Inventories

(1) Classification of inventories

Inventories of the Company mainly include raw materials work in progress goods in stock development products

and consumable biological assets etc.

(2) Pricing of inventories dispatched

Inventories of the Company are measured at their actual cost when obtained. Cost of raw materials goods in

stock and others will be calculated with weighted average method when being dispatched.Consumable biological assets refer to biological assets held-for-sale which include growing timber. Consumable

biological assets without a stock are stated at historical cost at initial recognition and subsequently measured

at fair value when there is a stock. Changes in fair values shall be recognised as profit or loss in the current

period. The cost of self-planting self-cultivating consumable biological assets is the necessary expenses

directly attributable to such assets prior to canopy closure including borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.Subsequent expenses such as maintenance cost incurred after canopy closure shall be included in profit or loss

for the current period.The cost of consumable biological assets shall at the time of harvest or disposal be carried forward at carrying

amount using the stock volume proportion method.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 89

15. Inventories (Cont’d)

(3) Recognition of net realisable value of inventories and provision for inventory impairment

Net realisable value of inventories refers to the amount of the estimated price of inventories less the estimated cost

incurred upon completion estimated sales expenses and taxes and levies. The realisable value of inventories shall

be determined on the basis of definite evidence purpose of holding the inventories and effect of after-balance-

sheet-date events.At the balance sheet date provision for inventory impairment is made when the cost is higher than the net

realisable value. The Company usually make provision for inventory impairment based on categories of inventories.At the balance sheet date in case the factors causing inventory impairment no longer exists the original provision

for inventory impairment shall be reversed.

(4) Inventory stock taking system

The Company implements permanent inventory system as its inventory stock taking system.

(5) Amortisation of low-value consumables and packaging materials

The low-value consumables of the Group are amortised when issued for use.Packaging materials for turnover are amortised when issued for use.

16. Contract assets

Contract assets are the Company’s right to consideration in exchange for goods that the Company has transferred to

customers when that right is conditioned on something other than the passage of time. The Company’s unconditional

right to receive consideration from customers (only the passage of time is required) is accounted for as accounts

receivable.The methods for determination and accounting treatment of the ECLs on contract assets are detailed in Note V. 10

Financial instruments.

17. Contract costs

Contract costs are either the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer or the costs to fulfil a contract

with a customer.Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that the Company incurs to obtain a contract with a customer

that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained e.g. an incremental sales commission. The

Company recognises as an asset the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if it expects to recover

those costs. Other costs of obtaining a contract are expensed when incurred.If the costs to fulfil a contract with a customer are not within the scope of inventories or other accounting standards

the Company recognises an asset from the costs incurred to fulfil a contract only if those costs meet all of the following

criteria:

* the costs relate directly to an existing contract or to a specifically identifiable anticipated contract including direct

labour direct materials allocations of overheads (or similar costs) costs that are explicitly chargeable to the

customer and other costs that are incurred only because the Group entered into the contract;

* the costs generate or enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy)

performance obligations in the future;

* the costs are expected to be recovered.

17. Contract costs (Cont’d)

Assets recognised for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and assets recognised for the costs to fulfil a

contract (the “assets related to contract costs”) are amortised on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer

to the customer of the goods or services to which the assets relate and recognised in profit or loss for the current

period. An expense is recognised when incurred if the amortisation period is less than one year.The Company recognises an impairment loss in profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of an asset related

to contract costs exceeds:

* remaining amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services to

which the asset relates;

* the cost estimated to be happened for the transfer of related goods or services.The costs of contract performance recognised as assets if the amortisation period is less than one year or a normal

operating cycle upon the initial recognition are presented as “Inventories” item and if the amortisation period is more

than one year or a normal operating cycle upon the initial recognition are presented as “Other non-current assets” item.The contract obtaining costs recognised as assets if the amortisation period is less than one year or a normal operating

cycle upon the initial recognition are presented as “Other current assets” item and if the amortisation period is more

than one year or a normal operating cycle upon the initial recognition are presented as “Other non-current assets” item.

18. Assets held for sale

A non-current asset or disposal group is classified as held for sale if its carrying amount will be recovered principally

through a sale transaction (including a non-monetary asset exchange with commercial substance) rather than through

continuing use.The aforesaid non-current asset does not include the investment property subsequently measured at fair value the

biological assets measured at the net amount of the fair value deducting the sales expense the assets generated from

remuneration financial assets deferred income tax assets and rights from insurance contract.A disposal group is a group of assets to be disposed of together as a whole by sale or other means in a transaction and

liabilities directly associated with those assets that will be transferred in the transaction. In certain circumstances the

disposal group includes the goodwill acquired in the business combination.A non-current asset or a disposal group is classified as held for sale if it meets all of the following conditions: the

noncurrent asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that

are usual and customary for sales of such asset or disposal group; the sale is highly probable i.e. a sale plan has been

resolved and a firm purchase commitment has been obtained and the sale is expected to be completed within one year.When the Group loses control of a subsidiary due to reasons such as disposal of investment in a subsidiary regardless

of whether the Group retains part of the equity investment after the disposal when the investment in a subsidiary

intended to be disposed of meets the conditions for classification as held for sale the investment in a subsidiary is

classified as held for sale as a whole in the separate financial statements and all assets and liabilities of the subsidiary

are classified as held for sale in the consolidated financial statements.When the non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale are initially measured or remeasured at the balance sheet

date the excess of the carrying amount over the net amount of the fair value less selling expenses is recognised as

asset impairment loss. For the amount of impairment loss recognised on disposal groups held for sale the carrying

amount of the goodwill of the disposal group shall be offset against first and then be offset against the carrying amount

of non-current assets according to the proportion of the carrying amount of non-current assets.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 91

18. Assets held for sale (Cont’d)

If the net amount of the fair value of the non-current assets or disposal groups held for sale less the selling expenses

increases on the subsequent balance sheet date the amount previously written down shall be recovered and reversed

in the amount of asset impairment loss recognised after be classified as held for sale and the reversed amount shall be

included in the current profit and loss. The carrying amount of goodwill written off shall not be reversed.Non-current assets held for sale and assets in disposal group held for sale are not depreciated or amortised. Interest

and other expenses of a disposal group classified as held for sale continue to be recognised. For all or part of an

investment in an associate or a joint venture that is classified as held for sale the part of being classified as held for sale

shall cease to be accounted for using the equity method while any retained portion (not classified as held for sale) shall

continue to be accounted for using the equity method; The Group ceases to use the equity method from the date when

the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate or a joint venture.If a non-current asset or disposal group is classified as held for sale but subsequently no longer meets the criteria for

being classified as held for sale the Group shall cease to classify it as held for sale and measure it at the lower of:

(1) the carrying amount of the asset or disposal group before being classified as held for sale is adjusted by the

depreciation amortisation or impairment that would have been recognised if the asset or disposal group had not

been classified as held for sale;

(2) recoverable amount.

19. Long-term receivables

The Company measures the impairment loss of long-term receivables at an amount equal to the ECLs in the next 12

months or the lifetime ECLs depending on whether its credit risk has significantly increased upon initial recognition.Other than the long-term receivables assessed individually for credit risks long-term receivables are classified into

different groups based on their credit risk characteristics:

Item Basis for determining the groups

Long-term receivables not yet past due The group is comprised of long-term receivables not yet past due with

normal exposures.Long-term receivables overdue This group is comprised of long-term receivables with higher past due

exposures.

20. Long-term equity investments

Long-term equity investments include the equity investments in subsidiaries joint ventures and associates. Associates

of the Company are those investees that the Company imposes significant influence over.

(1) Determination of initial investment cost

Long-term equity investments acquired through business combinations: for a long-term equity investment

acquired through a business combination involving enterprises under common control the investment cost shall

be the absorbing party’s share of the carrying amount of the owners’ equity under the consolidated financial

statements of the ultimate controlling party on the date of combination. For a long-term equity investment

acquired through a business combination involving enterprises not under common control the investment cost of

the long-term equity investment shall be the cost of combination.Long-term equity investments acquired through other means: for a long-term equity investment acquired by cash

payment the initial investment cost shall be the purchase cost actually paid; for a long-term equity investment

acquired by issuing equity securities the initial investment cost shall be the fair value of equity securities issued.

(2) Subsequent measurement and method for profit or loss recognition

Investments in subsidiaries shall be accounted for using the cost method. Except for the investments which meet

the conditions of holding for sale investments in associates and joint ventures shall be accounted for using the

equity method.For a long-term equity investment accounted for using the cost method the cash dividends or profits declared by

the investees for distribution shall be recognised as investment gains and included in profit or loss for the current

period except the case of receiving the actual consideration paid for the investment or the declared but not yet

distributed cash dividends or profits which is included in the consideration.For a long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method where the initial investment cost

exceeds the investor’s interest in the fair value of the investee’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date no

adjustment shall be made to the investment cost of the long-term equity investment. 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 acquisition

date adjustment shall be made to the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment and the difference shall

be charged to profit or loss for the current period.Under the equity method investment gain and other comprehensive income shall be recognised based on the

Company’s share of the net profits or losses and other comprehensive income made by the investee respectively.Meanwhile the carrying amount of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted. The carrying amount of

long-term equity investment shall be reduced based on the Company’s share of profit or cash dividend distributed

by the investee. In respect of the other movement of net profit or loss other comprehensive income and profit

distribution of investee the carrying amount of long-term equity investment shall be adjusted and included in the

capital reserves (other capital reserves). The Company shall recognise its share of the investee’s net profits or

losses based on the fair values of the investee’s individual separately identifiable assets at the time of acquisition

after making appropriate adjustments thereto according to the accounting policies and accounting periods of the

Company.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 93

(2) Subsequent measurement and method for profit or loss recognition (Cont’d)

For additional equity investment made in order to obtain significant influence or common control over investee

without resulted in control the initial investment cost under the equity method shall be the aggregate of fair value

of previously held equity investment and additional investment cost on the date of transfer. For investments

in non-trading equity instruments that were previously classified as at fair value through other comprehensive

income the cumulative fair value changes associated with them that were previously included in other

comprehensive income are transferred to retained earnings upon the change to the equity method of accounting.In the event of loss of common control or significant influence over investee due to partial disposal of equity

investment the remaining equity interest after disposal shall be accounted for according to the Accounting

Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and measurement of Financial Instruments. The difference

between its fair value and carrying amount shall be included in profit or loss for the current period. In respect

of other comprehensive income recognised under previous equity investment using equity method it shall be

accounted for in accordance with the same accounting treatment for direct disposal of relevant asset or liability by

investee at the time when equity method was ceased to be used. Movement of other owners’ equity related to the

previous equity investment shall be transferred to profit or loss for the current period.In the event of loss of control over investee due to partial disposal of equity investment the remaining equity

interest which can apply common control or impose significant influence over the investee after disposal shall be

accounted for using equity method. Such remaining equity interest shall be treated as accounting for using equity

method since it is obtained and adjustment was made accordingly. For the remaining equity interest which cannot

apply common control or impose significant influence over the investee after disposal it shall be accounted for

using the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and measurement of Financial

Instruments. The difference between its fair value and carrying amount as at the date of losing control shall be

included in profit or loss for the current period.If the shareholding ratio of the Company is reduced due to the capital increase of other investors and as a result

the Company loses the control of but still can apply common control or impose significant influence over the

investee the net asset increase due to the capital increase of the investee attributable to the Company shall be

recognised according to the new shareholding ratio and the difference with the original carrying amount of the

long-term equity investment corresponding to the shareholding ratio reduction part that should be carried forward

shall be recorded in the profit or loss for the current period; and then it shall be adjusted according to the new

shareholding ratio as if equity method is used for accounting when acquiring the investment.In respect of the transactions between the Company and its associates and joint ventures the share of unrealised

gain or loss arising from internal transactions shall be eliminated by the portion attributable to the Company.Investment gain or loss shall be recognised accordingly. However any unrealised loss arising from internal

transactions between the Company and an investee is not eliminated to the extent that the loss is impairment loss

of the transferred assets.

(3) Basis for determining the common control and significant influence on the investee

Common control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an arrangement which relevant activities of

such arrangement must be decided by unanimously agreement from parties who share control. When determining

if there is any common control it should first be identified if the arrangement is controlled by all the participants

or the group consisting of the participants and then determined if the decision on the arranged activity can be

made only with the unanimous consent of the participants sharing the control. If all the participants or a group

of participants can only decide the relevant activities of certain arrangement through concerted action it can

be considered that all the participants or a group of participants share common control on the arrangement. If

there are two or more participant groups that can collectively control certain arrangement it does not constitute

common control. When determining if there is any common control the relevant protection rights will not be taken

into account.Significant influence is the power of the investor to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of

an investee but to fail to control or joint control the formulation of such policies together with other parties. When

determining if there is any significant influence on the investee the influence of the voting shares of the investee

held by the investor directly and indirectly and the potential voting rights held by the investor and other parties

which are exercisable in the current period and converted to the equity of the investee including the warrants

stock options and convertible bonds that are issued by the investee and can be converted in the current period

shall be taken into account.When the Company holds directly or indirectly through the subsidiary 20% (inclusive) to 50% of the voting shares

of the investee it is generally considered to have significant influence on the investee unless there is concrete

evidence to prove that it cannot participate in the production and operation decision-making of the investee and

cannot pose significant influence in this situation. When the Company owns less than 20% of the voting shares

of the investee it is generally considered that it has not significantly influenced on the investee unless there is

concrete evidence to prove that it can participate in the production and operation decision-making of the investee

and cannot pose significant influence in this situation.

(4) Held-for-sale equity investments

The equity investments to associates or joint ventures are all or partially classified as assets held for sale.The remaining equity investments that are not classified as assets held for sale shall be accounted for using equity

method.The equity investments to associates or joint ventures already classified as held for sale no longer meet the

conditions of assets held for sale shall be adjusted retroactively using equity method from the date of being

classified as assets held for sale.

(5) Impairment test method and Impairment provision

For the method for making impairment provision for the investment in subsidiaries associates and joint ventures

please refer to Note V. 28.

21. Investment property

Investment property refers to real estate held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. The investment property

of the Company includes leased land use rights land use rights held for sale after appreciation and leased buildings.The investment property of the Company is measured initially at cost upon acquisition and subject to depreciation or

amortisation in the relevant periods according to the relevant provisions on fixed assets or intangible assets.For the method for making impairment provision for the investment property adopted cost method for subsequent

measurement please refer to Note V. 28.When an investment property is sold transferred retired or damaged the amount of proceeds on disposal of the

property net of the carrying amount and related tax and surcharges is recognised in profit or loss for the current period.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 95

22. Fixed assets

(1) Conditions for recognition

Fixed assets represent the tangible assets held by the Company using in the production of goods rendering of

services and for operation and administrative purposes with useful life over one year.Fixed assets are recognised when it is probable that the related economic benefits will flow to the Company and

the costs can be reliably measured.The Company’s fixed assets are initially measured at the actual cost at the time of acquisition.Subsequent expenditures incurred for a fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset when it is probable

that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Company and the related cost can be reliably measured.The cost of routine repairs of fixed assets that do not qualify as capitalised subsequent expenditure is charged to

current profit or loss or included in the cost of the related assets in accordance with the beneficiary object when

incurred. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.

(2) Depreciation method

The Company adopts the straight-line method for depreciation. Provision for depreciation will be started when the

fixed asset reaches its expected usable state and stopped when the fixed asset is derecognised or classified as a

non-current asset held for sale. Without regard to the depreciation provision the Company determines the annual

depreciation rate by category estimated useful lives and estimated residual value of the fixed assets as below:

Useful lives Estimated Annual

Depreciation of depreciation residual depreciation

Category method (Year) value (%) rate (%)

Housing and building structure Straight-line 20-40 5-10 2.25-4.75

method

Machinery and equipment Straight-line 8-20 5-10 4.50-11.88

method

Transportation equipment Straight-line 5-8 5-10 11.25-19.00

method

Electronic equipment and others Straight-line 5 5-10 18.00-19.00

method

Where for the fixed assets for which impairment provision is made to determine the depreciation rate the

accumulated amount of the fixed asset impairment provision that has been made shall be deducted.

(3) The impairment test method and impairment provision method of the fixed assets are set out in Note V. 28.

(4) The Company will re-check the useful lives estimated net residual value and depreciation method of the fixed

assets at the end of each year.When there is any difference between the useful lives estimate and the originally estimated value the useful

lives of the fixed asset shall be adjusted. When there is any difference between the estimated net residual value

estimate and the originally estimated value the estimated net residual value shall be adjusted.

(5) Disposal of fixed assets

A fixed asset is derecognised on disposal or when it is expected that there shall be no economic benefit arising

from using or after disposal. Where the fixed assets are sold transferred retired or damaged the income received

after disposal after deducting the carrying amount and related taxes are recognised in profit or loss for the current

period.

23. Construction in progress

Construction in progress of the Company is recognised based on the actual construction cost including all necessary

expenditures incurred for construction projects capitalised borrowing costs for the construction in progress before it

has reached the working condition for its intended use and other related expenses during the construction period.A construction in progress is reclassified to fixed assets when it has reached the working condition for its intended use.The method for impairment provision of construction in progress is set out in Note V. 28.

24. Borrowing costs

(1) Recognition principle for the capitalisation of the borrowing costs

The borrowing costs incurred by the Company directly attributable to the acquisition construction or production

of a qualifying asset will be capitalised and included in the cost of relevant asset. Other borrowing costs will be

recognised as expenses when incurred according to the incurred amount and included in the profit or loss for the

current period. When the borrowing costs meet all the following conditions capitalisation shall be started:

* The capital expenditure has been incurred which includes the expenditure incurred by paying cash

transferring non-cash assets or undertaking interest-bearing liabilities for acquiring constructing or

producing the qualifying assets;

* The borrowing costs have been incurred;

* The acquisition construction or production activity necessary for the asset to be ready for its intended use

or sale has been started.

(2) Capitalisation period of borrowing costs

When a qualifying asset acquired constructed or produced by the Company is ready for its intended use or sale

the capitalisation of the borrowing costs shall discontinue. The borrowing costs incurred after a qualifying asset

is ready for its intended use or sale shall be recognised as expenses when incurred according to the incurred

amount and included in the profit or loss for the current period.Capitalisation 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. The capitalisation of the borrowing costs shall be continued in the normal interruption period.

(3) Calculation methods for capitalisation rate and capitalised amount of the borrowing costs

Where funds are borrowed for a specific purpose the amount of interest to be capitalised shall be the actual

interest expense incurred on that borrowing for the period less any bank interest earned from depositing the

borrowed funds before being used into banks or any investment income on the temporary investment of those

funds. Where funds are borrowed for general purpose the Company shall determine the amount of interest

to be capitalised on such borrowings by applying a capitalisation rate to the weighted average of the excess

amounts of cumulative expenditures on the asset over and above the amounts of specific-purpose borrowings.The capitalisation rate shall be the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the general-purpose

borrowings.During the capitalisation period exchange differences on a specific purpose borrowing denominated in foreign

currency shall be capitalised. Exchange differences related to general-purpose borrowings denominated in foreign

currency shall be included in profit or loss for the current period.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 97

25. Biological assets

Bearer biological assets refer to biological assets held for the purpose of producing agricultural products providing

labour services or renting including economic forests firewood forests productive livestock and draught animals.Bearer biological assets are initially measured at cost. The cost of a planted or propagated bearer biological asset

includes the expenses directly attributable to the asset and necessarily incurred before the asset is ready for its intended

production and operation including the borrowing costs that are eligible for capitalisation.The management protection and feeding costs of a biological asset subsequent to crown closure or after the asset is

ready for its intended production and operation are expensed and recognised in profit or loss as incurred.Depreciation of bearer biological assets is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of

each biological asset less its residual value.

26. Right-of-use assets

Conditions for recognition of right-of-use assets

Right-of-use assets are defined as the right of underlying assets in the lease term for the Company as a lessee.Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost at the commencement date of the lease. The cost includes the amount

of the initial measurement of lease liability; lease payments made at or before the inception of the lease less any lease

incentives enjoyed; initial direct costs incurred by the Company as lessee; costs to be incurred in dismantling and

removing the underlying assets restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition

required by the terms and conditions of the lease incurred by the Company as lessee. As a lessee the Company

recognises and measures the costs of dismantling and restoration in accordance with the Accounting Standard for

Business Enterprises No. 13 – Contingencies. Subsequently the lease liability is adjusted for any remeasurement of the

lease liability.Depreciation method of right-of-use assets

The Company uses the straight-line method for depreciation. Where the Company as a lessee is reasonably certain to

obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term such asset is depreciated over the remaining useful

life of the leased asset. Where ownership of the lease assets during the lease term cannot be reasonably determined

right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term or the remainder of useful lives of the lease assets whichever is

shorter.For the methods of impairment test and impairment provision of right-of-use assets please refer to Note V. 28.

27. Intangible assets

The intangible assets of the Company include land use rights software and certificates of third party right.The intangible asset is initially measured at cost and its useful life is determined upon acquisition. If the useful life is

finite the intangible asset will be amortised over the estimated useful life using the amortisation method that can reflect

the estimated realisation of the economic benefits related to the asset starting from the time when it is available for use.If it is unable to reliably determine the estimated realisation straight-line method shall be adopted for amortisation. The

intangible assets with uncertain useful life will not be amortised.The amortisation methods for the intangible assets with finite useful life are as follows:

Type Useful life (year) Method of amortisation Remark

Land use rights 50-70 Straight-line method

Software 5-10 Straight-line method

Certificates of third party right 3 Straight-line method

The Company reviews the useful life and amortisation method of the intangible assets with finite useful life at the end of

each year. If it is different from the previous estimates the original estimates will be adjusted and will be treated as a

change in accounting estimate.If it is estimated on the balance sheet date that certain intangible asset can no longer bring future economic benefit to

the company the carrying amount of the intangible asset will be entirely transferred into the profit or loss for the current

period.The impairment method for the intangible assets is set out in Note V. 28.

28. Asset impairment

Impairment of long-term equity investments in subsidiaries associates and joint ventures asset impairment on

investment property fixed assets construction in progress materials for project right-of-use assets intangible assets

goodwill and others (excluding inventories deferred tax assets and financial assets) subsequently measured at cost is

determined as follows:

The Company determines if there is any indication of asset impairment as at the balance sheet date. If there is any

evidence indicating that an asset may be impaired recoverable amount shall be estimated for impairment test. Goodwill

arising from business combinations intangible assets with an indefinite useful life and intangible assets not ready for

use will be tested for impairment annually regardless of whether there is any indication of impairment.The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and the present value of the

future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. The Company estimates the recoverable amount of an

individual asset. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset the Company shall

determine the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the asset belongs. The determination of an asset group

is based on whether major cash inflows generated by the asset group are independent of the cash inflows from other

assets or asset groups.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 99

INTERIM REPORT 2022X Financial Report

V. Significant Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates (Cont’d)

28. Asset impairment (Cont’d)

When the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount the carrying amount is

reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction amount is charged to profit or loss and an impairment provision is

made accordingly.For the purpose of impairment test of goodwill the carrying amount of goodwill acquired in a business combination is

allocated to the relevant asset groups on a reasonable basis from the acquisition date; where it is difficult to allocate

to the related asset groups it is allocated to the combination of related asset groups. The related asset groups or

combination of asset groups are those which can benefit from the synergies of the business combination and are not

larger than the reportable segments identified by the Company.In the impairment test if there is any indication that an asset group or a combination of asset groups related to goodwill

may be impaired the Group first tests the asset group or set of asset groups excluding goodwill for impairment

calculates the recoverable amount and recognises the corresponding impairment loss. An impairment test is then carried

out on the asset group or combination of asset groups containing goodwill by comparing its carrying amount with its

recoverable amount. If the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount an impairment loss is recognised for

goodwill.An impairment loss recognised shall not be reversed in a subsequent period.

29. Long-term prepaid expenses

The long-term prepaid expenses incurred by the Company shall be recognised based on the actual cost and evenly

amortised over the estimated benefit period. For the long-term prepaid expense that cannot benefit the subsequent

accounting periods its value after amortisation shall be entirely included in the profit or loss for the current period.

30. Contract liabilities

A contract liability represents the Company’s obligation to transfer goods to a customer for which the Company has

received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If the customer has already paid

the contract consideration before the Company transfers goods to the customer or the Company has obtained the

unconditional collection right the Company will recognise such amount received or receivable as contract liabilities

at earlier of the actual payment by the customer or the amount payable becoming due. Contract assets and contract

liabilities under the same contract are presented on a net basis and contract assets and contract liabilities under

different contracts are not offset.

31. Employee benefits

(1) Scope of employee benefits

Employee benefits are all forms of considerations or compensation given by an entity in exchange for services

rendered by employees or for the termination of employment. Employee benefits include short-term staff

remuneration post-employment benefits termination benefits and other long-term employee benefits. Employee

benefits include benefits provided to employees’ spouses children other dependants survivors of the deceased

employees or to other beneficiaries.Employee benefits are presented as “employee benefits payable” and “long-term employee benefits payable” in

the balance sheet respectively according to liquidity.

(2) Short-term staff remuneration

Employee wages or salaries actually incurred bonuses and social insurance contributions such as medical

insurance work injury insurance maternity insurance and housing fund contributed at the applicable benchmarks

and rates are recognised by the Company as a liability during the accounting period when the employees render

services with a corresponding charge to profit or loss or included in the cost of assets where appropriate. Where

the payment of liability is expected not to be fully settled within 12 months after the end of the annual reporting

period in which the employees render the related services and the financial impact would be material these

liabilities are measured at their discounted values.

(3) Post-employment benefits

Post-employment benefit plans include defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. A defined

contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a

separate fund and the Group has no further obligations for payment. A defined benefit plan is a postemployment

benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan.Defined contribution plans

Defined contribution plans include basic pension insurance and unemployment insurance.During the accounting period when an employee renders services the amount payable calculated according to

the defined contribution plan is recognised as a liability and included in the profit or loss for the current period or

the cost of relevant assets.

(4) Termination benefits

When the Company provides termination benefits to employees employee benefits liabilities arising from

termination benefits are recognised in profit or loss for the current period at the earlier of the following dates: when

the Company cannot revoke unilaterally compensation for dismissal due to the cancellation of labour relationship

plans and employee redundant proposals; the Company recognises cost and expenses related to payment of

compensation for dismissal and restructuring.For the early retirement plans economic compensations before the actual retirement date were classified as

termination benefits. During the period from the date of cease of render of services to the actual retirement

date relevant wages and contribution to social insurance for the employees proposed to be paid are recognised

in profit or loss on a one-off basis. Economic compensation after the official retirement date such as normal

pension is accounted for as post-employment benefits.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 101

32. Lease liabilities

(1) Initial measurement

At the commencement date of a lease term the Company shall initially measure the lease liabilities at the present

value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date.

1) Lease payments

The lease payments mean the payments made by the Company to a lessor for the right to use the leased

assets during the lease term including: * fixed payments and in-substance fixed payments less any lease

incentives receivable; * variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate initially measured using

the index or rate as at the commencement date of the lease term; * the exercise price of a purchase option

if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; * payments for terminating the lease if the

lease term reflects the Company exercising an option to terminate the lease; * amounts expected to be

payable by the Company under residual value guarantees.

2) Discount rate

The present value of the lease payments shall be calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing

rate.

(2) Subsequent measurement

After the commencement date of a lease term the Company shall subsequently measure the lease liabilities by: *

increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liabilities; * reducing the carrying amount to reflect

the lease payments made; * remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect the change in the lease payments due to

any reassessment or lease modifications.The interest expense on the lease liabilities in each period during the lease term is calculated using a constant

periodic rate of interest and is recognised in profit or loss for the current period except for the interest expense to

be capitalised. The periodic rate of interest is the discount rate used by the Company in the initial measurement of

lease liabilities or the revised discount rate used by the Company when the Company has to remeasure the lease

liabilities based on a revised discount rate due to a change in the lease payments or lease modifications.

(3) Remeasurement

After the commencement date of a lease term the Company shall remeasure the lease liabilities using the

changes to the lease payments and the revised discount rate and adjust the carrying amount of the right-of-use

assets accordingly in the circumstances set out below. If the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets is reduced

to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liabilities the Company shall recognise

any remaining amount of the remeasurement in profit or loss: * there is any change in the amount of in-substance

fixed payments; * there is any change in the amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee;

* there is any change in the index or rate used to determine the lease payments; * there is any change in the

assessment results in the purchase option; and * there is any change in the assessment results or the exercise of

the extension option or termination option.

33. Provisions

Obligations pertinent to the contingencies which satisfy the following conditions are recognised by the Company as

provisions:

(1) the obligation is a current obligation borne by the Company;

(2) it is likely that an outflow of economic benefits from the Company will be resulted from the performance of the

obligation;

(3) the amount of the obligation can be reliably measured.

The provisions shall be initially measured based on the best estimate for the expenditure required for the performance

of the current obligation after taking into account relevant risks uncertainties time value of money and other

factors pertinent to the contingencies. If the time value of money has significant influence the best estimates shall

be determined after discounting the relevant future cash outflow. The Company reviews the carrying amount of the

provisions on the balance sheet date and adjust the carrying amount to reflect the current best estimates.If all or some expenses incurred for settlement of recognised provisions are expected to be borne by the third party

the compensation amount shall on a recoverable basis be recognised as asset separately and compensation amount

recognised shall not be more than the carrying amount of provisions.

34. Share-based payments

(1) Category of share-based payment

The Company’s share-based payment is either equity-settled or cash-settled.

(2) Determination of fair value of equity instruments

For the existence of an active market for options and other equity instruments granted by the Company the fair

value is determined at the quoted price in the active market. For options and other equity instruments with no

active market option pricing model shall be used to estimate the fair value of the equity instruments. The following

factors shall be taken into account using option pricing models: A. the exercise price of the option; B. the validity

period of the option; C. the current market price of the share; D. the expected volatility of the share price; E.predicted dividend of the share; and F. risk-free rate of the option within the validity period.

(3) Recognition of vesting of equity instruments based on the best estimate

On each balance sheet date within the vesting period the estimated number of equity instruments expected to

vest is revised based on the best estimate made by the Company according to the latest available subsequent

information as to changes in the number of employees with exercisable rights. On the vesting date the final

estimated number of equity instruments expected to vest should equal the actual number of equity instruments

expected to vest.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 103

(4) Accounting treatment of implementation modification and termination of share-based payment

Equity-settled share-based payment shall be measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted to

employees. For those may immediately vest after the grant the fair value of equity instrument at the grant date

shall be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the capital reserve shall be increased accordingly. If the

right may not be exercised until the vesting period comes to an end or until the specified performance conditions

are met within the vesting period the services obtained in the current period shall based on the best estimate of

the number of vested equity instruments be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the capital reserve at

the fair value of the equity instrument at the grant date. After the vesting period relevant costs or expenses and

total shareholders’ equity which have been recognised will not be adjusted.Cash-settled share-based payment shall be measured in accordance with the fair value of liability calculated

and recognised based on the shares or other equity instruments undertaken by the Company. For those may

immediately vest after the grant the fair value of the liability undertaken by the Company shall on the date of the

grant be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the liabilities shall be increased accordingly. If the right

may not be exercised until the vesting period comes to an end or until the specified performance conditions are

met within the vesting period the services obtained in the current period shall based on the best estimate of

the information about the exercisable right be included in the relevant costs or expenses and the corresponding

liabilities at the fair value of the liability undertaken by the Company. For each of the balance sheet date and

settlement date before the settlement of the relevant liabilities fair value of the liabilities shall be remeasured and

the changes will be included in the profit or loss for the current period.When there are changes in Company’s share-based payment plans if the modification increases the fair value of

the equity instruments granted corresponding recognition of service increase in accordance with the increase in

the fair value of the equity instruments; if the modification increases the number of equity instruments granted

the increase in fair value of the equity instruments is recognised as a corresponding increase in service achieved.Increase in the fair value of equity instruments refer to the difference between the fair values of the modified date.If the modification reduces the total fair value of shares paid or not conductive to the use of other employees

share-based payment plans to modify the terms and conditions of service it will continue to be accounted for in

the accounting treatment as if the change had not occurred unless the Company cancelled some or all of the

equity instruments granted.During the vesting period if the cancelled equity instruments (except for failure to meet the conditions of the

non-market vesting conditions) granted by the Company to cancel the equity instruments granted amount

treated as accelerated vesting of the remaining period should be recognised immediately in profit or loss while

recognising capital reserves. If employees or other parties can choose to meet non-vesting conditions but they are

not met in the vesting period the Company will treat them as cancelled equity instruments granted.

35. Preference shares Perpetual Bonds and other financial instruments

(1) Classification of financial liabilities and equity instruments

Financial instruments issued by the Company are classified into financial assets financial liabilities or equity

instruments on the basis of the substance of the contractual arrangements and the economic nature not only

its legal form together with the definition of financial asset financial liability and equity instruments on initial

recognition.

(2) Accounting treatment of preference shares Perpetual Bonds and other financial instruments

Financial instruments issued by the Company are initially recognised and measured in accordance with the

financial instrument standards; thereafter interest or dividends are accrued on each balance sheet date and

accounted for in accordance with relevant specific ASBEs i.e. to determine the accounting treatment for interest

expenditure or dividend distribution of the instrument based on the classification of the financial instrument issued.For financial instruments classified as equity instruments their interest expenses or dividend distributions are

treated as profit distribution of the Company and their repurchases and cancellations are treated as changes in

equity; for financial instruments classified as financial liabilities their interest expenses or dividend distribution are

in principle accounted for with reference to borrowing costs and the gains or losses arising from their repurchases

or redemption are included in the profit or loss for the current period.For the transaction costs such as fees and commissions incurred by the Company for issuing financial

instruments if such financial instruments are classified as debt instruments and measured at amortised cost they

are included in the initial measured amount of the instruments issued; if such financial instruments are classified

as equity instruments they are deducted from equity.

36. Revenue

(1) General principles

The Company recognises revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in the contract i.e. when the

customer obtains control of the relevant goods or services.Where a contract has two or more performance obligations the Company allocates the transaction price to each

performance obligation based on the percentage of respective unit price of goods or services guaranteed by

each performance obligation and recognises as revenue based on the transaction price that is allocated to each

performance obligation.If one of the following conditions is fulfilled the Company performs its performance obligation within a certain

period; otherwise it performs its performance obligation at a point of time:

* when the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company when the

Company performs its obligations under the contract;

* when the customer is able to control the goods in progress in the course of performance by the Company

under the contract;

* when the goods produced by the Company under the contract are irreplaceable and the Company has the

right to payment for performance completed to date during the whole contract term.For performance obligations performed within a certain period the Company recognises revenue by measuring

the progress towards complete of that performance obligation within that certain period. When the progress

of performance cannot be reasonably determined if the costs incurred by the Company are expected to be

compensated the revenue shall be recognised at the amount of costs incurred until the progress of performance

can be reasonably determined.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 105

36. Revenue (Cont’d)

(1) General principles (Cont’d)

For performance obligation performed at a point of time the Company recognises revenue at the point of time at

which the customer obtains control of relevant goods or services. To determine whether a customer has obtained

control of goods or services the Company considers the following indications:

* The Company has the current right to receive payment for the goods which is when the customer has the

current payment obligations for the goods.* The Company has transferred the legal title of the goods to the customer which is when the client

possesses the legal title of the goods.* The Company has transferred the physical possession of goods to the customer which is when the

customer obtains physical possession of the goods.* The Company has transferred all of the substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the goods to the

customer which is when the customer obtain all of the substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the

goods to the customer.* The customer has accepted the goods.* Other information indicates that the customer has obtained control of the goods.The Company’s right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Company has transferred to

customers (and such right depends on factors other than passage of time) is accounted for as contract assets

and contract assets are subject to impairment based on ECLs (Note V. 10). The Company’s unconditional right to

receive consideration from customers (only depends on passage of time) is accounted for as accounts receivable.The Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to customers for which the Company has received or

should receive consideration from customers is accounted for as contract liabilities.Contract assets and contract liabilities under the same contract are presented on a net basis. Where the net

amount has a debit balance it is presented in “contract assets” or “other non-current assets” according to its

liquidity. Where the net amount has a credit balance it is presented in “contract liabilities” or “other non-currentliabilities” according to its liquidity.

(2) Specific methods

Specific method for revenue recognition of machine-made paper business of the Company: in terms of domestic

sales of machine-made paper revenue is recognised when goods are delivered to the customers and such

deliveries are confirmed; while in terms of overseas sales of machine-made paper revenue is recognised on the

day when goods are loaded on board and declared.Specific method for recognition of finance lease income of the Company: according to the repayment schedule

the income is recognised by instalments according to the effective interest rate.Specific method for recognition of revenue from real estate of the Company: revenue is recognised by amortising

the rental income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

37. Government grants

A government grant is recognised when the grant will be received and that the Company will comply with the conditions

attaching to the grant.If a government grant is in the form of a monetary asset it is measured at the amount received or receivable. If a

government grant is in the form of non-monetary asset it is measured at fair value; if the fair value cannot be obtained in

a reliable way it is measured at the nominal amount of RMB1.Government grants obtained for acquisition or construction of long-term assets or other forms of long-term asset

formation are classified as government grants related to assets while the remaining government grants are classified as

government grants related to revenue.Regarding the government grant not clearly defined in the official documents and can form long-term assets the part

of government grant which can be referred to the value of the assets is classified as government grant related to assets

and the remaining part is government grant related to revenue. For the government grant that is difficult to distinguish

the entire government grant is classified as government grant related to revenue.A government grant related to an asset shall be recognised as deferred income and evenly amortised to profit or loss

over the useful life of the asset in a reasonable and systematic manner. For a government grant related to revenue if

the grant is a compensation for related costs expenses or losses incurred the grant shall be recognised in profit or loss

for the current period; if the grant is a compensation for related costs expenses or losses to be incurred in subsequent

periods the grant shall be recognised as deferred income and recognised in profit or loss over the periods in which the

related costs expenses or losses are recognised. A government grant measured at nominal amount is directly included

in profit or loss for the current period. The Company adopts a consistent approach to the same or similar government

grants.A government grant related to daily activities is recognised in other gains relying on the essence of economic business;

otherwise recognised in non-operating income or non-operating expenses.For the repayment of a government grant already recognised if there is any related deferred income the repayment

shall be off set against the carrying amount of the deferred income and any excess shall be recognised in profit or loss

for the current period; otherwise the repayment shall be recognised immediately in profit or loss for the current period.For the policy preferential interest subsidy if it is provided by the financial authority through banks it is recognised

at the amount of borrowings actually received and the borrowings costs are calculated based on the principal of the

borrowings and the policy preferential interest rate; if it is provided by the financial authority directly the corresponding

interest will be used to offset the relevant borrowing expenses.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 107

38. Deferred income tax assets/deferred income tax liabilities

Income tax comprises current income tax expense and deferred income tax expense which are included in profit or

loss for the current period as income tax expenses except for deferred tax related to transactions or events that are

directly recognised in owners’ equity which are recognised in owners’ equity and deferred tax arising from a business

combination which is adjusted against the carrying amount of goodwill.Temporary differences arising from the difference between the carrying amount of an asset or liability and its tax base

at the balance sheet date of the Company shall be recognised as deferred income tax using the balance sheet liability

method.All the taxable temporary differences are recognised as deferred income tax liabilities except for those incurred in the

following transactions:

(1) The initial recognition of goodwill and the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is neither

a business combination nor affects accounting profit or taxable profit (or deductible loss) when the transaction

occurs;

(2) The taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries associates and joint ventures and

the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the

temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.The Company recognises a deferred income tax asset for the carry forward of deductible temporary differences

deductible losses and tax credits to subsequent periods to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits

will be available against which the deductible temporary differences deductible losses and tax credits can be utilised

except for those incurred in the following transactions:

(1) The transaction is neither a business combination nor affects accounting profit or taxable profit (or deductible loss)

when the transaction occurs;

(2) The deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries associates and joint ventures

the corresponding deferred income tax asset is recognised when both of the following conditions are satisfied: it is

probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and it is probable that taxable profits

will be available in the future against which the temporary difference can be utilised.At the balance sheet date deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are measured at the tax

rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled and their tax effect is

reflected accordingly.At the balance sheet date the Company reviews the carrying amount of a deferred income tax asset. If it is probable

that sufficient taxable profits will not be available in future periods to allow the benefit of the deferred tax asset to be

utilised the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset is reduced. Any such reduction in amount is reversed when it

becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

39. Lease

(1) Identification of leases

On the beginning date of the contract the Company (as a lessee or lessor) assesses whether the customer in

the contract has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset

throughout the period of use and has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period of

use. If a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset and multiple identified assets for a

period of time in exchange for consideration the Company identifies such contract is or contains a lease.

(2) The Company as lessee

On the beginning date of the lease the Company recognises right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases

except for short-term lease and low-value asset lease with simplified approach.The accounting policy for right-of-use assets is set out in Note V. 26.The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the beginning

date of the lease using the interest rate implicit in the lease. Where the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be

determined the incremental borrowing rate is used as the discount rate. Lease payments include fixed payments

and in-substance fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable; variable lease payments that are based

on an index or a rate; the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise

that option; payments for terminating the lease if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option of

terminating; and amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees. Subsequently

the interest expense on the lease liability for each period during the lease term is calculated using a constant

periodic rate of interest and is recognised in profit or loss for the current period. Variable lease payments not

included in the measurement of lease liabilities are charged to profit or loss in the period in which they actually

arise. The Company calculates the interest expense of the lease liability for each period of the lease term based

on the fixed periodic interest rate and is included in the current profit and loss. The variable lease payments that

are not included in the measurement of the lease liability are recognised in profit or loss when incurred.Short-term lease

Short-term leases refer to leases with a lease term of less than 12 months from the commencement date except

for those with a purchase option.Lease payments on short-term leases are recognised in the cost of related assets or current profit or loss on a

straight-line basis over the lease term.For short-term leases the Company chooses to adopt the above simplified approach for the following types of

assets that meet the conditions of short-term lease according to the classification of leased assets.Low-value equipment

Transportation vehicles

(2) The Company as lessee (Cont’d)

Low-value asset lease

A low-value asset lease is a lease that the value of a single leased asset is below RMB40000 when it is a new

asset.Lease payments on low-value asset leases are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term and either

included in the cost of the related asset or charged to profit or loss for the current period.For a low-value asset lease the Company chooses the above simplified approach based on the specific

circumstances of each lease.Lease modification

The Company accounts for a lease modification as a separate lease when the modification occurs and the

following conditions are met: * the lease modification expands the scope of lease by adding the right to use

one or more of the leased assets; and * the increase in consideration is equivalent to the separate price for the

expanded scope of lease adjusted for that contractual situation.Where a lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease at the effective date of the lease modification

the Company reallocates the consideration of the modified contract re-determines the lease term and remeasures

the lease liability based on the present value of the lease payments after the modification and the revised discount

rate.If a lease modification results in a reduction in the scope of the lease or a shortening of the lease term the

Company reduces the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset accordingly and includes in the profit or loss for

the period the gain or loss associated with the partial or complete termination of the lease.Where other lease modifications result in a remeasurement of the lease liability the Company adjusts the carrying

amount of the right-of-use asset accordingly.

(3) The Company as lessor

When the Company is a lessor a lease is classified as a finance lease whenever the terms of the lease transfer

substantially all the risks and rewards of asset ownership to the lessee. All leases other than financial leases are

classified as operating leases.Finance leases

Under finance leases the Company accounts for finance lease receivables at the beginning of the lease term at

the net lease investment which is the sum of the unsecured residual value and the present value of the lease

receipts outstanding at the commencement date of the lease discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease.The Company as lessor calculates and recognises interest income for each period of the lease term based on

a fixed periodic interest rate. Variable lease payments acquired by the Company as lessor that are not included

in the net measurement of lease investments are included in profit or loss for the period when they are actually

incurred.Derecognition and impairment of finance lease receivables are accounted for in accordance with the requirements

under the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial

Instruments and the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 23 – Transfer of Financial Assets.Operating lease

Lease payments under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.Initial direct costs incurred in relation to operating leases are capitalised and amortised over the lease term on the

same basis as rental income and recognised in profit or loss for the current period. The variable lease payments

obtained in relation to operating leases that are not included in the lease payments are recognised in profit or loss

in the period in which they actually incurred.Lease modification

The Company accounts for a modification in an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date of the

modification and the amount of lease receipts received in advance or receivable in respect of the lease prior to the

modification is treated as a receipt under the new lease.The Company accounts for a modification in a finance lease as a separate lease when the change occurs and

the following conditions are met: * the modification expands the scope of lease by adding the right to use one

or more of the leased assets; and * the increase in consideration is equivalent to the separate price for the

expanded scope of lease adjusted for that contractual situation.Where a finance lease is modified and not accounted for as a separate lease the Company accounts for the

modified lease in the following circumstances: * If the modification takes effect on the lease commencement

date the lease will be classified as an operating lease the Company will account for it as a new lease from the

effective date of the lease modification and use the net lease investment before the effective date of the lease

modification; * If the modification takes effect on the lease commencement date the lease will be classified as a

finance lease and the Company will conduct accounting treatment in accordance with the Accounting Standards

for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments on modifying or

renegotiating contracts.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 111

(4) Sublease

When the Company is an intermediate lessor the sublease is classified with reference to the right-of-use assets

arising from the head lease. If the head lease is a short-term lease for which the Company adopts a simplified

approach then the Company classifies the sublease as an operating lease.

(5) Sale and leaseback

The lessee and the lessor shall assess and determine whether the transfer of assets in a sale and leaseback

transaction is a sale in accordance with the requirements of the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.

14 – Revenue.

Where asset transfer under the sale and leaseback transactions is a sale the lessee shall measure the right-of-use

assets created by the sale and leaseback based on the portion of carrying amount of the original assets related

to right of use obtained upon leaseback and only recognise relevant profit or loss for the right transferred to

the lessor. The lessor shall account for the purchase of assets in accordance with other applicable ASBEs and

account for the lease of assets in accordance with this standard.Where asset transfer under the sale and leaseback transactions is not a sale the lessee shall continue to

recognise the transferred assets while recognising a financial liability equal to the transfer income and account

for such liability according to the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and

Measurement of Financial Instruments; or not to recognise the transferred assets but recognise a financial asset

equal to the transfer income and account for such asset according to the Accounting Standard for Business

Enterprises No. 22 – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments.

41. Others

The fair value refers to the price that will be received when selling an asset or the price to be paid to transfer a liability in

an orderly transaction between market participants on the date of measurement.The Group measures the relevant assets or liabilities at fair value assuming that the orderly transaction of selling the

assets or transferring the liabilities is conducted in the main market of the relevant assets or liabilities; in the absence of

the main market the Group assumes that the transaction is conducted in the most advantageous market for the relevant

asset or liability. The main (or the most advantageous) market must be accessible to by the Group on the measurement

date. The Group uses assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability assuming that

market participants act in their economic best interest.For financial assets or financial liabilities exist in an active market fair value is determined based on the quoted price

in such market. While financial instruments do not exist in an active market the fair value is determined using valuation

techniques.Fair value measurement for a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic

benefits by using the asset in its best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its

best use.The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are

available to measure fair value and gives priority to relevant observable inputs. Unobservable inputs are used only when

relevant observable inputs are not accessible or the access to which is impracticable.All assets and liabilities measured at fair value or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair

value hierarchy described as follows based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement

as a whole: Level 1 inputs are available quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at

the measurement date; Level 2 inputs are inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability

either directly or indirectly; Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis the Group

reassess them at each balance sheet date to determine whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 113

Note: The Company assessed the recoverable amount of goodwill and determined that the goodwill related to the Company’s plastic

business was not impaired. The Company determines the reporting segments based on the category of the principal activities

and categorises Kunshan Tuoan Plastic Products Co. Ltd. as an asset group. The recoverable amount is determined based on

the current value of the estimated future cash flows. Future cash flows are determined based on the financial budget for 2022 to

2026 as approved by the management and adopts a discount rate of 7.28% the interest rate of the 5-year bonds issued by the

Company in 2018. The cash flows for more than 5 years are calculated based on the growth rate of 5%. Other key assumptions

used in estimating future cash flows include the estimated sales and gross profit based on the performance of such asset group in

the past and the expectation to market development by the management. The management believed that any reasonable change

in the above assumptions will not result in the total carrying value of the asset group Kunshan Tuoan Plastic Products Co. Ltd.exceeding its recoverable amount.

Changes (increase or decrease) in other equity instruments during the period the reasons for such changes and

the basis for relevant accounting treatment:

The Company issued medium-term notes amounting to RMB1000 million on 12 July 2017 at a coupon rate of

6.80%. The proceeds net of issue costs amounted to RMB996.00 million. The notes are debts without a defined

maturity date and will continue indefinitely until the exercise of the right of redemption by the Company. The

interest rate of the bills is determined by the basic interest rate + the initial interest rate + 300BP. It has the feature

of capped interest rates and the capped interest rate does not exceed the average interest rate level of the same

type of instruments in the same industry in the same period; The Company has the right to defer any payment of

interest. The right of redemption of the notes is vested in the Company so that it is up to the Company to decide

whether to redeem or not; the priority of repayment of the principal and interest of medium-term notes for the

period is the same as other outstanding debt financing instruments of the issuers in the event of winding up

because there is low probability of bankruptcy that the Company will not be liable for contractual obligations to

deliver cash or other financial assets expected.Based on the above the notes do not contain any term giving rise to any contractual obligation to deliver cash

or other financial assets to any other entity or to exchange any financial asset or financial liability with any other

entity under potential adverse circumstances. Consequently they are eligible to be recognised and accounted for

as equity instruments and included under other equity instruments – Perpetual Bonds.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 151

Other explanations including changes (increase or decrease) during the period and reasons for such changes:

* The Company estimated that due to the second batch of 30% restricted shares the capital surplus recognised in

previous years was eliminated in the current period and the final share-based payment was recognised as a reduction

of capital surplus of RMB6850012.78; * a capital increase of Zhanjiang Chenming Pulp & Paper Co. Ltd. a subsidiary

of the Company was contributed on the part of other investors causing a decrease in the Company’s shareholding

without loss of control and an increase of capital reserves of RMB29676814.69; * in 2021 Guangdong Nanyue

Bank Co. Ltd. an associate of the Company introduced investment on the part of other investors which diluted the

Company’s equity interest and as the 2021 annual report of Guangdong Nanyue Bank Co. Ltd. was disclosed later

than the Company the Company reduced the capital reserves by RMB55547014.21 based on the audited amount in

(3) Market risk (Cont’d)

Interest rate risk (Cont’d)

The Company’s interest rate risk arises from long-term interest-bearing liabilities including long-term borrowing

and bonds payable. Financial liabilities issued at floating rate expose the Company to cash flow interest rate

risk. Financial liabilities issued at fixed rate expose the Company to fair value interest rate risk. The Company

determines the relative proportions of its fixed rate and floating rate contracts depending on the prevailing market

conditions and to maintain an appropriate combination of financial instruments at fixed rate and floating rate

through regular reviews and monitors.The Company closely monitors the interest rate risk due to changes in interest rate. At present the Company does

not adopt any interest rate hedging policies. However the management is responsible for monitoring interest rate

risk and considers hedging significant interest rate risk as necessary. Interest rate hikes will increase the cost of

new interest-bearing borrowings and the interest expenses with respect to the Company’s outstanding floating

rate interest-bearing borrowings and therefore could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial

result. The management will make adjustments with reference to the latest market conditions. These adjustments

may include interest swap arrangements to mitigate its exposure to the interest rate risk.Interest-bearing financial instruments held by the Company are as follows (in ten thousand RMB):

The sensitivity analysis above indicates the instantaneous change in the net profit and equity that would arise

assuming that the change in interest rates had occurred at the balance sheet date and had been applied to

remeasure those financial instruments held by the Company which expose the Company to fair value interest

rate risk at the balance sheet date. In respect of the exposure to cash flow interest rate risk arising from floating

rate non-derivative instruments held by the Company at the balance sheet date the impact on the net profit and

equity is estimated as an annualised impact on interest expense or income of such a change in interest rates. The

analysis is performed on the same basis for the previous year.SHANDONG CHENMING PAPER HOLDINGS LIMITED 181

Exchange rate risk refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flow of a financial instrument will fluctuate

due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Exchange rate risk may arise from financial instruments denominated in

foreign currencies other than the functional currency.The principal business of the Company is situated within the PRC and is denominated in RMB. However foreign

exchange risks still exist for the assets and liabilities in foreign currencies and future foreign currency transactions

as recognised by the Company (assets and liabilities in foreign currencies and foreign currency transactions are

mainly denominated in US dollar Japanese yen South Korean Won Euro Hong Kong dollar and British pound).The following table details the financial assets and liabilities held by the Company which denominated in foreign

currencies and amounted to RMB as at 30 June 2022 are as follows (in RMB ten thousands):

The Company closely monitors the impact of exchange rate changes on the Company’s foreign exchange

risk. The Company has not taken any measures to avoid foreign exchange risks. However the management is

responsible for monitoring exchange rate risks and will consider hedging significant exchange rate risks when

necessary.With other variables unchanged the after-tax effect of the possible reasonable changes in the exchange rate of

foreign currency to RMB on the current profit and loss of the Company is as follows (in RMB ten thousands):
