To all the shareholders of China Merchants Port Group Co. Ltd.I. Audit Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of China Merchants Port Group Co. Ltd. (hereinafter

referred to as "the Company") which comprise the consolidated and Company's balance sheets as at

31 December 2022 and the consolidated and Company's income statements the consolidated and

Company's cash flow statements and the consolidated and Company's statements of changes in

shareholders' equity for the year then ended and the notes to the financial statements.In our opinion the accompanying financial statements of the Company are prepared and present fairly

in all material respects the consolidated and Company's financial position as at 31 December 2022

and the consolidated and Company's results of operations and cash flows for the year then ended in

accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises.II. Basis for the Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with China Standards on Auditing. Our responsibilities under

those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial

Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with China Code

of Ethics for Certified Public Accountants and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in

accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and

appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.III. Key Audit Matters

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

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

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

a separate opinion on these matters. We determine the followings are key audit matters that need to be

addressed in our report.

1. Subsequent measurement of long-term equity investments in associates

As disclosed in Note (VIII) 13 to the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2022 the

carrying amount of the Company's long-term equity investments in associates amounts to RMB

82647500863.33 accounting for 64.44% of the total shareholder's equity. In 2022 the investment

income from associates recognized under the equity method amounts to RMB 6765840426.95

accounting for 82.19% of the consolidated net profit. Since the amount of income from investments in

associates recognized by the Company for the year is significant and its correctness depends on the

financial status and operating results of the investee we determine the above-mentioned subsequent

measurement of the long-term equity investments in associates as a key audit matter of the

consolidated financial statements.- 1 -AUDITOR'S REPORT - continued

III. Key Audit Matters - continued

1. Subsequent measurement of long-term equity investments in associates - continued

Principal audit procedures we performed for the above key audit matter are as follows:

(1) Understood the certified public accountants of major associates and evaluated their

independence and professional competence;

(2) Identified and assessed the risk of material misstatement in the financial statements of the major

associates from the perspective of auditing the consolidated financial statements of the

Company by reading the financial statements of the major associates and discussing with the

management about the financial performance of the major associates and the significant

judgments and estimates made in the preparation of the financial statements;

(3) Discussed with the component certified public accountants of the major associates about their

assessment of the component audit risk the identification of key audit areas and the

implementation of the corresponding audit procedures to evaluate whether the audit of the

component certified public accountants was appropriate;

(4) Verified whether the accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by the major

associates were consistent with those of the Company. If not checked whether the financial

statements of the major associates have been adjusted according to the accounting policies and

accounting periods of the Company and recognized the amount of investment income under

equity method on that basis.

2. Goodwill impairment

As disclosed in Note (VIII) 22 to the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2022 the

goodwill presented in the consolidated financial statements of the Company is RMB 6411426891.09.The management of the Company uses the net amount of fair value less costs of disposal or the present

value of the estimated future cash flows to determine the recoverable amount of the relevant asset

group when testing the goodwill for impairment of which the fair value assessment is based on the

market approach and the forecast of future cash flows and the calculation of the present value include

key assumptions such as growth rate and discount rate. We determine goodwill impairment as a key

audit matter of the consolidated financial statements due to the significant amount of goodwill and that

the management needs to make significant judgments and estimates when conducting goodwill

impairment testing.- 2 -AUDITOR'S REPORT - continued

IV. Other Information

The management of the Company is responsible for the other information. The other information

any form of assurance conclusion.- 3 -AUDITOR'S REPORT - continued

De Shi Bao (Shen) Zi (23) No. P03194

(Page 4 of 6)

IV. Other Information - continued

In combination with our audit of the financial statements our responsibility is to read the other

information and in doing so consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the

financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially

misstated.If based on the audit work performed we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other

information we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.V. Responsibilities of the Management and Those Charged with Governance for the

Financial Statements

The management of the Company is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements that

give a true and fair view in accordance with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises and for

the design performance and maintenance of such internal control that is necessary to enable that the

preparation of financial statements are free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error.In preparing the financial statements the management is responsible for assessing the Company's

ability to continue as a going concern disclosing as applicable matters related to going concern and

using the going concern basis of accounting unless the management either intends to liquidate the

Company or to cease operations or has no realistic alternative but to do so.These charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting

process.VI. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from

material misstatement whether due to fraud or error and to issue an auditor's report that includes an

audit opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit

conducted in accordance with China Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement

when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if individually

or in the aggregate they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users

taken on the basis of these financial statements.As part of an audit in accordance with China Standards on Auditing we exercise professional

judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

(Page 5 of 6)

VI. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements - continued

(1) Identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements whether

due to fraud or error designed and performed audit procedures responsive to those risks and

obtained audit evidence that was sufficient and appropriate to form our opinion. The risk of not

detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud was higher than for one resulting from

error as fraud may involve collusion forgery intentional omissions misrepresentations or the

override of internal control.

(2) Understood audit-related internal control in order to design audit procedures that were

appropriate in the circumstances.

(3) Evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policies applied and the reasonableness of

accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.

(4) Concluded on the appropriateness of the management' application of the going concern basis of

accounting. Based on audit evidence obtained concluded on whether the material uncertainty of

events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a

going concern existed. If we concluded that a material uncertainty existed we were required to

draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or to

modify our opinion if such disclosures were inadequate. Our conclusions were based on the

audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However future events or

conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

(5) Evaluated the overall presentation (including the disclosures) structure and content of the

financial statements and whether the financial statements represented the underlying

transactions and events in a manner that achieved fair presentation.

(6) Obtained sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities

or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We

were responsible for the direction supervision and performance of the group audit. We

remained solely responsible for our audit opinion.We communicated with those charged with governance regarding among other matters the planned

scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including any significant deficiencies in

internal control that we identified during our audit.We also provided those charged with governance with a statement that we had complied with relevant

ethical requirements of independence and communicated with those charged with governance over all

relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence and

where applicable related safeguards.- 5 -AUDITOR'S REPORT - continued

VI. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements - continued

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance we determined those matters

that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current year and were

therefore the key audit matters. We described these matters in our auditor's report unless law or

regulation precluded public disclosure about the matter or when in extremely rare circumstances we

determined that a matter should not be addressed in our report because the adverse consequences of

doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such

communication.Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu CPA LLP Chinese Certified Public Accountant

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

(Unless otherwise specified the monetary unit shall be RMB.)

(I) GENERAL INFORMATION OF THE COMPANY

China Merchants Port Group Co. Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the "Company") is a stock

limited company incorporated in Shenzhen Guangdong Province on 16 January 1993.The headquarters of the Company is located in Shenzhen Guangdong Province. The Company

and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group") are principally engaged in the rendering of port

service bonded logistics service and other businesses such as property development and

investment.The Company's and consolidated financial statements have been approved by the Board of

Directors on 31 March 2023.See Note (X) "Equity in Other Entities" for details of the scope of consolidated financial

statements in the current year. See Note (IX) "Changes in Scope of Consolidation" for details of

changes in the scope of consolidated financial statements in the current year.(II) BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The Group has adopted the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises ("ASBE") issued by

the Ministry of Finance ("MoF"). In addition the Group has disclosed relevant financial

information in accordance with Information Disclosure and Presentation Rules for Companies

Offering Securities to the Public No. 15 - General Provisions on Financial Reporting (Revised in

2014).

Going concern

As at 31 December 2022 the Group had total current liabilities in excess of total current assets of

RMB 6123555489.62. As at 31 December 2022 the Group had available and unused line of

credit and bonds amounting to RMB 74112485433.51 which is greater than the balance of the

net current liabilities. The Group can obtain financial support from the available line of credit and

bonds when needed. Therefore the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern

basis.(III) STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE ASBE

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with ASBE and

present truly and completely the Company's and consolidated financial position as at 31

December 2022 and the Company's and consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the

year then ended.- 18 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

(Unless otherwise specified the monetary unit shall be RMB.)

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

1. Accounting year

The Group has adopted the calendar year as its accounting year e.g. from 1 January to 31

December.

2. Operating cycle

An operating cycle refers to the period since when an enterprise purchases assets for processing

purpose till the realization of those assets in cash or cash equivalents. The Group is principally

engaged in the rendering of port service bonded logistics service and other businesses such as

property development and investment with one year being an operating cycle.

3. Functional currency

Renminbi ("RMB") is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company

and its domestic subsidiaries operate. Therefore the Company and its domestic subsidiaries

choose RMB as their functional currency. The Company's overseas subsidiaries choose their

functional currencies on the basis of the primary economic environment in which they operate.The Company adopts RMB to prepare its financial statements.

4. Basis of accounting and principle of measurement

The Group has adopted the accrual basis of accounting. Except for certain financial instruments

which are measured at fair value the Group adopts the historical cost as the principle of

measurement of the financial statements. Upon being restructured into a stock company the fixed

assets and intangible assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized

based on the valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department.Where assets are impaired provisions for asset impairment are made in accordance with the

relevant requirements.Where the historical cost is adopted as the measurement basis assets are recorded at the amount

of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the consideration given to acquire them at the

time of their acquisition. Liabilities are recorded at the amount of proceeds or assets received or

the contractual amounts for assuming the present obligation or at the amounts of cash or cash

equivalents expected to be paid to settle the liabilities in the normal course of business.Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an

orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date regardless of whether

that price is directly observable or estimated using valuation technique. Fair value measurement

and/or disclosure in the financial statements are determined according to the above basis.In the measurement of non-financial assets at fair value market participants' ability to best utilize

such assets to generate most economic benefits or the ability to sell such assets to other market

participants who are able to best utilize the assets to generate economic benefits is taken into

account.- 19 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

4. Basis of accounting and principle of measurement - continued

For financial assets of which transaction prices are the fair value on initial recognition and of

which valuation technique involving unobservable input is used in subsequent measurement the

valuation technique in the course of valuation is adjusted to enable the result of initial recognition

based on the valuation technique equal to the transaction price.Fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the

inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair

value measurement in its entirety which are described as follows:

Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that

the entity can access at the measurement date;

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are

observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

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

5. Business combinations

Business combinations are classified into business combinations involving enterprises under

common control and business combinations not involving enterprises under common control.

5.1 Business combinations involving enterprises under common control

A business combination involving enterprises under common control is a business combination in

which all of the combining enterprises are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both

before and after the combination and that control is not transitory.Assets and liabilities obtained shall be measured at their respective carrying amounts as recorded

by the combining entities at the date of the combination. The difference between the carrying

amount of the net assets obtained and the carrying amount of the consideration paid for the

combination is adjusted to the share premium in capital reserve. If the share premium is not

sufficient to absorb the difference any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings.Costs that are directly attributable to the combination are charged to profit or loss in the period in

which they are incurred.

5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill

A business combination not involving enterprises under common control is a business

combination in which all of the combining enterprises are not ultimately controlled by the same

party or parties before and after the combination.- 20 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unless otherwise specified the monetary unit shall be RMB.)

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

5. Business combinations - continued

5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill -

continued

The cost of combination is the aggregate of the fair values at the acquisition date of the assets

given liabilities incurred or assumed and equity securities issued by the acquirer in exchange for

control of the acquiree. Where a business combination not involving enterprises under common

control is achieved in stages that involve multiple transactions the cost of combination is the sum

of the consideration paid at the acquisition date and the fair value at the acquisition date of the

acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree. The intermediary expenses (fees in respect of

auditing legal services valuation and consultancy services etc.) and other administrative

expenses attributable to the business combination are recognized in profit or loss in the periods

when they are incurred.The acquiree's identifiable assets liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired by the acquirer in a

business combination that meet the recognition criteria shall be measured at fair value at the

acquisition date.When a business combination contract provides for the acquirer's recovery of consideration

previously paid contingent on one or multiple future event(s) the Group recognizes the contingent

consideration provided in the contract as an asset as part of the consideration transferred in the

business combination and includes it in the cost of business combination at the fair value at the

acquisition date. Within 12 months after the acquisition where the contingent consideration needs

to be adjusted as new or further evidences are obtained in respect of the circumstances existed at

the acquisition date the adjustment shall be recognized and the amount originally recognized in

goodwill or non-operating income shall be adjusted. A change in or adjustment to the contingent

consideration under other circumstances shall be accounted for in accordance with Accounting

Standards for Business Enterprise No. 22 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement

and Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 13 - Contingencies. Any change or

adjustment is included in profit or loss for the current period.Where the cost of combination exceeds the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's

identifiable net assets the difference is treated as an asset and recognized as goodwill which is

measured at cost on initial recognition. Where the cost of combination is less than the acquirer's

interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets the acquirer reassesses the

measurement of the fair values of the acquiree's identifiable assets liabilities and contingent

liabilities and measurement of the cost of combination. If after that reassessment the cost of

combination is still less than the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable

net assets the acquirer recognizes the remaining difference immediately in profit or loss for the

current period.- 21 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

5. Business combinations - continued

5.2 Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill - continued

If either the fair values of identifiable assets liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired in a

combination or the cost of business combination can be determined only provisionally by the end

of the period in which the business combination was effected the acquirer recognizes and

measures the combination using those provisional values. Any adjustments to those provisional

values within twelve months after the acquisition date are treated as if they had been recognized

and measured on the acquisition date.Goodwill arising from a business combination is measured at cost less accumulated impairment

losses and is presented separately in the consolidated financial statements.For the purpose of impairment testing goodwill is considered together with the related assets

groups i.e. goodwill is reasonably allocated to the related assets groups or each of assets groups

expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. In testing an assets group with

goodwill for impairment an impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount of the assets

group or sets of assets groups (including goodwill) is less than its carrying amount. The

impairment loss is firstly allocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to

such assets group or sets of assets groups and then to the other assets of the group pro-rata on the

basis of the carrying amount of each asset (other than goodwill) in the group.Recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value of an asset less cost of disposal and the present

value of estimated future cash flows.The impairment loss of goodwill is recognized in profit or loss for the period and shall not be

reversed in subsequent periods.

6. Consolidated financial statements

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

control. Control exists when the investor has power over the investee; is exposed or has rights to

variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power over

the investee to affect its returns. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if

facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes in the above elements of the definition of

control.Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and

ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary.For a subsidiary already disposed of by the Group the operating results and cash flows before the

date of disposal (the date when control is lost) are included in the consolidated income statement

and consolidated cash flow statement as appropriate.- 22 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unless otherwise specified the monetary unit shall be RMB.)

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

6. Consolidated financial statements - continued

For subsidiaries acquired through a business combination involving enterprises not under

common control the operating results and cash flows from the acquisition date (the date when

control is obtained) are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated cash flow

statement as appropriate.No matter when the business combination occurs in the reporting period subsidiaries acquired

through a business combination involving enterprises under common control or the party being

absorbed under merger by absorption are included in the Group's scope of consolidation as if they

had been included in the scope of consolidation from the date when they first came under the

common control of the ultimate controlling party. Their operating results and cash flows from the

date when they first came under the common control of the ultimate controlling party are included

in the consolidated income statement and consolidated cash flow statement as appropriate.The significant accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by the subsidiaries are

determined based on the uniform accounting policies and accounting periods set out by the

Company.Where the accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by subsidiaries are inconsistent

with those of the Company appropriate adjustments are made to the subsidiaries' financial

statements in accordance with the accounting policies of the Company.All significant intra-group balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.The portion of subsidiaries' equity that is not attributable to the Company is treated as minority

interests and presented as "minority interests" in the consolidated balance sheet under the line

item of shareholders' equity. The portion of net profits or losses of subsidiaries for the period

attributable to minority interests is presented as "minority interests" in the consolidated income

statement under the line item of "net profit". The portion of comprehensive income of subsidiaries

for the period attributable to minority interests is presented as "total comprehensive income

attributable to minority shareholders" in the consolidated income statement under the line item of

"total comprehensive income".When the amount of loss for the period 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 is still allocated against minority interests.Acquisition of minority interests or disposal of interests in a subsidiary that does not result in the

loss of control over the subsidiary is accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts

of the Company's interests and minority interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their

relative interests in the subsidiary. The difference between the amount by which the minority

interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is adjusted to capital

reserve. If the capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference the excess is adjusted

against retained earnings.- 23 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

6. Consolidated financial statements - continued

For the stepwise acquisition of equity interest till acquiring control after a few transactions and

leading to business combination not involving enterprises under common control it shall be dealt

with based on whether it belongs to 'package deal': if it belongs to 'package deal' it will be

accounted for as a transactions to acquire control; if it does not belong to 'package deal' it will be

accounted for as a transaction to acquire control on acquisition date and the fair value of acquiree'

shares held before acquisition date will be revalued and the difference between fair value and

carrying amount will be recognized in profit or loss of the current period; if acquiree' shares held

before acquisition date involve changes in other comprehensive income and other changes in

owners' equity under equity method it will be transferred to income of acquisition date.When the Group loses control over a subsidiary due to disposal of equity investment or other

reasons any retained interest is re-measured at its fair value at the date when control is lost. The

difference between (i) the aggregate of the consideration received on disposal and the fair value of

any retained interest and (ii) the share of the former subsidiary's net assets cumulatively calculated

from the acquisition date according to the original proportion of ownership interests is recognized

as investment income in the period in which control is lost and the goodwill is offset accordingly.Other comprehensive income associated with investment in the former subsidiary is reclassified to

investment income in the period in which control is lost.When the Group loses control of a subsidiary in two or more arrangements (transactions) terms

and conditions of the arrangements (transactions) and their economic effects are considered. One

or more of the following indicate that the Group shall account for the multiple arrangements as a

'package deal': (i) they are entered into at the same time or in contemplation of each other; (ii)

they form a complete transaction designed to achieve an overall commercial effect; (iii) the

occurrence of one transaction is dependent on the occurrence of at least one other transaction; (iv)

one transaction alone is not economically justified but it is economically justified when

considered together with other transactions. Where the transactions of disposal of equity

investments in a subsidiary until the loss of control are assessed as a package deal these

transactions are accounted for as one transaction of disposal of a subsidiary with loss of control.Before losing control the difference of consideration received on disposal and the share of net

assets of the subsidiary continuously calculated from acquisition date is recognized as other

comprehensive income. When losing control the cumulated other comprehensive income is

transferred to profit or loss of the period of losing control. If the transactions of disposal of equity

investments in a subsidiary are not assessed as a package deal these transactions are accounted

for as unrelated transactions.- 24 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

7. Joint arrangements

Joint arrangement refers to the arrangement jointly controlled by two or more than two

participants. The Group's joint arrangements have the following characteristics: (1) all the

participants are restricted by the arrangement; (2) the arrangement is jointly controlled by two or

more than two participants. Any participant cannot control the arrangement separately and any

participant to the joint control of the arrangement can stop other participants or the group of

participants from the separate control over the arrangement.Joint control refers to the joint control over an arrangement in accordance with relevant

agreements and relevant activities of the arrangement shall be decided after the unanimous

consent by participants sharing the controlling rights.There are two types of joint arrangements - joint operations and joint ventures. A joint operation

is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to

the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint

arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net

assets of the arrangement.

8. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and deposits that can be readily withdrawn on demand. Cash

equivalents are the Group's short-term (generally due within 3 months since the acquisition date)

highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are

subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

9. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies and translation of financial

statements denominated in foreign currencies

9.1 Transactions denominated in foreign currencies

A foreign currency transaction is recorded on initial recognition by applying the spot exchange

rate on the date of the transaction.At the balance sheet date foreign currency monetary items are translated into functional currency

using the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from the

differences between the spot exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date and those on

initial recognition or at the previous balance sheet date are recognized in profit or loss for the

period except that (1) exchange differences related to a specific-purpose borrowing denominated

in foreign currency that qualify for capitalization are capitalized as part of the cost of the

qualifying asset during the capitalization period; (2) exchange differences related to hedging

instruments for the purpose of hedging against foreign currency risks are accounted for using

hedge accounting; (3) exchange differences arising from changes in the carrying amounts (other

than the amortized cost) of monetary items at fair value through other comprehensive income are

recognized as other comprehensive income.- 25 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

9.1 Transactions denominated in foreign currencies - continued

When the consolidated financial statements include foreign operation(s) if there is foreign

currency monetary item constituting a net investment in a foreign operation exchange differences

arising from changes in exchange rates are recognized as "exchange differences arising from

translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies" in other comprehensive

income and in profit or loss for the period upon disposal of the foreign operation.Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated to the amounts in

functional currency at the spot exchange rates on the dates of the transactions; the amounts in

functional currency remain unchanged. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair

value are re-translated at the spot exchange rate on the date when the fair value is determined.Difference between the re-translated functional currency amount and the original functional

currency amount is treated as changes in fair value (including changes in exchange rate) and is

recognized in profit or loss or as other comprehensive income.

9.2 Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies

For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements financial statements of a

foreign operation are translated from the foreign currency into RMB using the following method:

assets and liabilities on the balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rate prevailing at the

balance sheet date; shareholders' equity items except for unappropriated profit are translated at the

spot exchange rates at the dates on which such items arose; all items in the income statement as

well as items reflecting the distribution of profits are translated at the average exchange rates of

the accounting period of the consolidated financial statements; the opening balance of

unappropriated profit is the translated closing balance of the previous year's unappropriated profit;

the closing balance of unappropriated profit is calculated and presented on the basis of each

translated income statement and profit distribution item. The difference between the translated

assets and the aggregate of liabilities and shareholders' equity items is recognized as other

comprehensive income and included in shareholders' equity.Cash flows arising from a transaction in foreign currency and the cash flows of a foreign

subsidiary are translated at average exchange rate during the accounting period of consolidated

financial statements. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents is regarded

as a reconciling item and presented separately in the cash flow statement as "effect of exchange

rate changes on cash and cash equivalents".The closing balances and the comparative figures of previous year are presented at the translated

amounts in the previous year's financial statements.- 26 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

9.2 Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies - continued

On disposal of the Group's entire interest in a foreign operation or upon a loss of control over a

foreign operation due to disposal of certain interest in it or other reasons the Group transfers the

accumulated exchange differences arising from translation of financial statements of this foreign

operation attributable to the owners' equity of the Company and presented under other

comprehensive income to profit or loss in the period in which the disposal occurs.In case of a disposal of part equity investments or other reason leading to lower interest

percentage in foreign operations but does not result in the Group losing control over a foreign

operation the exchange differences arising from the translation of foreign currency statements

related to this disposed part are re-attributed to minority interests and are not recognized in profit

or loss. For partial disposals of equity interests in foreign operations which are associates or joint

ventures the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences arising from translation

of statements of foreign operations is reclassified to profit or loss.

10. Financial instruments

The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability when it becomes a party to the

contractual provisions of the financial instrument.For financial assets purchased or sold in regular ways assets to be received and liabilities to be

assumed are recognized on the transaction date or assets sold are derecognized on that date.Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. For financial assets

and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss transaction costs are immediately

recognized in profit or loss. For other financial assets and financial liabilities transaction costs are

included in their initial recognized amounts. Upon initial recognition of contract assets accounts

receivable and notes receivable that do not contain significant financing component or without

considering the financing component included in the contract with a term not exceeding one year

under the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 14 - Revenue ("Revenue

Standards") the Group adopts the transaction price as defined in the Revenue Standards for initial

measurement.The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or a

financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expenses over the relevant

accounting periods.- 27 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

10. Financial instruments - continued

The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows through the

expected life of the financial asset or financial liability to the gross carrying amount of the

financial asset or to the amortized cost of the financial liability. When calculating the effective

interest rate the Group estimates future cash flows considering all contractual terms of the

financial asset or financial liability (such as repayment in advance extension call option or other

similar options etc.) (without considering the expected credit losses).The amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability is the amount of a financial asset or a

financial liability initially recognized net of principal repaid plus or less the cumulative amortized

amount arising from amortization of the difference between the amount initially recognized and

the amount at the maturity date using the effective interest method net of cumulative credit loss

allowance (only applicable to financial assets).

10.1 Classification recognition and measurement of financial assets

Subsequent to initial recognition the Group's financial assets of various categories are

subsequently measured at amortized cost at fair value through other comprehensive income or at

fair value through profit or loss.If the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are

solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding and the financial

asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by collecting contractual cash

flows the Group classifies such financial asset as financial assets at amortized cost which include

cash and bank balances notes receivable accounts receivable other receivables debt

investments and long-term receivables etc.If the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are

solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding and the financial

asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual

cash flows and selling the financial asset the Group classifies such financial asset as financial

assets at FVTOCI. The accounts receivable and notes receivable classified as at FVTOCI upon

acquisition are presented under receivables financing while the remaining items due within one

year (inclusive) upon acquisition are presented under other current assets. Other financial assets of

such type are presented as other debt investments if they are due after one year since the

acquisition or presented under non-current assets due within one year if they are due within one

year (inclusive) since the balance sheet date.On initial recognition the Group may irrevocably designate non-trading equity instruments other

than contingent consideration recognized through business combination not involving enterprises

under common control as financial assets at FVTOCI on an individual basis. Such financial

assets at FVTOCI are presented as investments in other equity instruments.- 28 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

10.1 Classification recognition and measurement of financial assets - continued

A financial asset is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied:

It has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near term; or

On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the

Group manages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual

pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as a

hedging instrument.Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") include those classified

as financial assets at FVTPL and those designated as financial assets at FVTPL.Financial assets not satisfying the criteria of classification as financial assets at amortized

cost and financial assets at FVTOCI are classified as financial assets at FVTPL.Upon initial recognition the Group may irrevocably designate the financial assets as at

FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces accounting mismatch.Financial assets at FVTPL other than derivative financial assets are presented as financial assets

held-for-trading. Financial assets with a maturity over one year since the balance sheet date (or

without a fixed maturity) and expected to be held for over one year are presented under other non-

current financial assets.

10.1.1 Financial assets measured at amortized cost

Financial assets measured at amortized cost are subsequently measured at amortized cost using

the effective interest method. Gain or loss arising from impairment or derecognition is recognized

in profit or loss.For financial assets measured at amortized cost the Group recognizes interest income using

effective interest method. The Group calculates and recognizes interest income through gross

carrying amount of financial assets multiplying effective interest rate except for the following

circumstances:

For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets the Group calculates and

recognizes the interest income based on amortized cost of the financial asset and the

effective interest rate through credit adjustment since initial recognition.- 29 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

10.1.2 Financial assets at FVTOCI

For financial assets classified as at FVTOCI except for the impairment losses or gains and the

interest income and exchange losses or gains calculated using the effective interest method which

are included in profit or loss for the period the changes in fair value are included in other

comprehensive income. The amounts included in profit or loss for each period are equivalent to

that as if the financial assets have been always measured at amortized cost. Upon derecognition

the accumulated gains or losses previously included in other comprehensive income are

transferred to profit or loss for the period.Changes in fair value of non-trading equity instrument investments designated as financial assets

at FVTOCI are recognized in other comprehensive income and the cumulative gains or losses

previously recognized in other comprehensive income allocated to the part derecognized are

transferred and included in retained earnings. During the period in which the Group holds the

non-trading equity instruments revenue from dividends is recognized in profit or loss for the

current period when (1) the Group has established the right of collecting dividends; (2) it is

probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Group; and (3) the amount of

dividends can be measured reliably.

10.1.3 Financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value. Gain or loss arising from

changes in fair value and dividends and interest related to the financial assets are recognized in

profit or loss.

10.2 Impairment of financial instruments

For financial assets at amortized cost financial assets classified as at FVTOCI lease receivables

contract assets loan commitments that are not financial liabilities at FVTPL financial liabilities

that are not at FVTPL and financial guarantee contracts that are not qualified for derecognition

due to the transfer of financial assets or financial liabilities arising from continuing involvement

of the transferred financial assets the Group accounts for the impairment and recognizes the

provision for losses on the basis of expected credit loss ("ECL").For all contract assets accounts receivable and notes receivable arising from transactions

regulated by Revenue Standards and lease receivables arising from transactions regulated by the

Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 21 - Leases the Group recognizes the

provision for losses at an amount equivalent to lifetime ECL.- 30 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

10.2 Impairment of financial instruments - continued

For other financial instruments (other than purchased or originated credit-impaired financial

assets) the Group assesses the changes in credit risk since initial recognition of relevant financial

instruments at each balance sheet date. If the credit risk has increased significantly since initial

recognition of the financial instruments the Group recognizes the provision for losses at an

amount equivalent to lifetime ECL; if the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial

recognition of the financial instruments the Group recognizes the provision for losses at an

amount equivalent to 12-month ECL. The increase or reversal of credit loss provision for financial

assets other than those classified as at FVTOCI is recognized as impairment loss or gain and

included in profit or loss for the period. For financial assets classified as at FVTOCI the credit

loss provision is recognized in other comprehensive income and the impairment loss or gain is

included in profit or loss for the period without reducing the carrying amount of the financial

assets in the balance sheet.Where the Group has measured the provision for losses at an amount equivalent to lifetime ECL

of a financial instrument in prior accounting period but the financial instrument no longer

satisfies the criteria of significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition at the current

balance sheet date the Group recognizes the provision for losses of the financial instrument at an

amount equivalent to 12-month ECL at the current balance sheet date with any resulting reversal

of provision for losses recognized as impairment gains in profit or loss for the period.

10.2.1 Significant increase of credit risk

The Group uses reasonable and supportable forward-looking information to assess whether the

credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition by comparing the risk of a default

occurring on the financial instrument at the balance sheet date with the risk of a default occurring

on the financial instrument at the date of initial recognition. For loan commitments and financial

guarantee contracts the date on which the Group becomes a party to the irrevocable commitment

is considered to be the date of initial recognition in the application of criteria related to the

financial instrument for impairment.In particular the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk

has increased significantly:

(1) Significant changes in internal price indicators resulting from changes in credit risk;

(2) Significant changes in the rates or other terms of an existing financial instrument if the

instrument was newly originated or issued at the balance sheet date (such as more

stringent covenants increased amounts of collateral or guarantees or higher rate of return

etc.);

(3) Significant changes in the external market indicators of credit risk of the same financial

instrument or similar financial instruments with the same expected duration. These

indicators include: credit spreads credit default swap prices against borrower length of

time and extent to which the fair value of financial assets is less than their amortized cost

and other market information related to the borrower (such as the borrower's debt

instruments or changes in the price of equity instruments);

(4) An actual or expected significant change in the financial instrument's external credit

rating;

(5) An actual or expected decrease in the internal credit rating for the debtor;

(6) Adverse changes in business financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a

significant decrease in the debtor's ability to meet its debt obligations;

(7) An actual or expected significant change in the operating results of the debtor;

(8) Significant increase in credit risk of other financial instruments issued by the same debtor;

(9) Significant adverse changes in the regulatory economic or technological environment of

the debtor;

enhancements provided by third parties which are expected to reduce the debtor's

economic motives to repay within the time limit specified in contract or affect the

probability of default;

(11) Significant change in the debtor's economic motives to repay within the time limit

specified in contract;

(12) Expected changes to loan contract including the exemption or revision of contractual

obligations the granting of interest-free periods the jump in interest rates the requirement

for additional collateral or guarantees or other changes in the contractual framework for

financial instruments that may result from the breach of contract;

10.2.1 Significant increase of credit risk - continued

The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly

since initial recognition if the financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk at the

balance sheet date. A financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk if: i) it has a

lower risk of default ii) the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow

obligations in the near term and iii) adverse changes in economic and business conditions in the

longer term may but will not necessarily reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfil its

contractual cash flow obligations.

10.2.2 Credit-impaired financial assets

When an event or several events that are expected to have adverse impact on the future cash flows

of the financial assets have occurred the financial assets become credit-impaired. The evidences

of credit impairment of financial assets include the following observable information:

(1) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor.

(2) A breach of contract by the debtor such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal

payments.

(3) The creditor for economic or legal reasons relating to the debtor's financial difficulty

granting a concession to the debtor.

(4) It becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganizations.

(5) The disappearance of an active market for the financial asset because of financial

difficulties of the issuer or the debtor.

(6) Purchase or origination of a financial asset with a large scale of discount which reflects

the fact of credit loss.Based on the Group's internal credit risk management the Group considers an event of default

occurs when information developed internally or obtained from external sources indicates that the

debtor is unlikely to pay its creditors including the Group in full (without taking into account any

collaterals held by the Group).

10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss

The Group determines the credit losses on lease receivables on an individual asset basis and on

notes receivable accounts receivable other receivables contract assets debt investments and

other debt investments on a portfolio basis using an impairment matrix for related financial

instruments. The financial instruments are grouped based on common risk characteristics. The

common credit risk characteristics adopted by the Group include credit risk rating initial

recognition date remaining contractual term industry of the debtor geographical location of the

debtor etc.- 33 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss - continued

The Group determines the ECL of relevant financial instruments using the following methods:

For financial assets the credit loss is the present value of the difference between the

contractual cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that

the Group expects to receive;

For lease receivables the credit loss is the present value of the difference between the

contractual cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that

the Group expects to receive;

For undrawn loan commitments (refer to Note IV 10.4.1.3 for the detail of accounting

policies) the credit loss is the present value of the difference between the contractual cash

flows that are due to the Group if the holder of the loan commitments draws down the loan

and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive if the loan is drawn down. The Group's

estimation of the ECL for loan commitments is consistent with its expectation of the loan

commitments drawn down.For financial guarantee contracts (refer to Note IV 10.4.1.3 for the detail of accounting

policies) the credit loss is the present value of the expected payments to reimburse the

holder for the credit loss incurred less any amounts that the Group expects to receive from

the holder the debtor or any other party.For financial assets credit-impaired at the balance sheet date but not purchased or originated

credit-impaired the credit loss is the difference between the gross carrying amount of the

financial assets and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the

original effective interest rate.The factors reflected by the Group's measurement of ECL of financial instruments include:

unbiased probability weighted average amount recognized by assessing a series of possible

results; time value of money; reasonable and supportable information related to historical events

current condition and forecast of future economic position that is available without undue cost or

effort at the balance sheet date.

10.2.4 Write-down of financial assets

When the Group no longer reasonably expects that the contractual cash flows of financial assets

can be collected in aggregate or in part the Group will directly write down the gross carrying

amount of the financial assets which constitutes derecognition of relevant financial assets.- 34 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

10.3 Transfer of financial assets

The Group will derecognize a financial asset if one of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) the

contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; (ii) the financial asset has been

transferred and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset is

transferred to the transferee; or (iii) although the financial asset has been transferred the Group

neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial

asset but has not retained control of the financial asset.If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a

financial asset and it retains control of the financial asset the Group will recognize the financial

asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferred financial asset and recognize an

associated liability. The Group will measure relevant liabilities as follows:

For transferred financial assets carried at amortized cost the carrying amount of relevant

liabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvement

less amortized cost of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upon

transfer of financial assets) with addition of amortized cost of obligations assumed by the

Group (if the Group assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Relevant

liabilities are not designated as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.For transferred financial assets carried at fair value the carrying amount of relevant

liabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvement

less fair value of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upon

transfer of financial assets) with addition of fair value of obligations assumed by the Group

(if the Group assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Accordingly

the fair value of relevant rights and obligations shall be measured on an individual basis.For the transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that satisfies the derecognition criteria the

difference between (1) the carrying amount of the financial asset transferred and (2) the sum of

the consideration received from the transfer and any cumulative gain or loss that has been

recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss. Where the transferred

assets are non-trading equity instrument investments designated as at FVTOCI cumulative gains

or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred out and included in

retained earnings.- 35 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

10.3 Transfer of financial assets - continued

If a part of the transferred financial asset qualifies for derecognition the overall carrying amount

of the financial asset prior to transfer is allocated between the part that continues to be recognized

and the part that is derecognized based on the respective fair value of those parts at the date of

transfer. The difference between (1) the carrying amount allocated to the part derecognized on the

date of derecognition; and (2) the sum of the consideration received for the part derecognized and

any cumulative gain or loss allocated to the part derecognized which has been previously

recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss. Where the transferred

assets are non-trading equity instrument investments designated as at FVTOCI cumulative gains

or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred out and included in

retained earnings.For a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that does not satisfy the derecognition criteria the

Group continues to recognize the transferred financial asset in its entirety. The consideration

received from transfer of assets is recognized as a liability upon receipt.

10.4 Classification of financial liabilities and equity instruments

Financial instruments issued by the Group or their components are classified into financial

liabilities or equity instruments on the basis of the substance of the contractual arrangements and

the economic nature not only the legal form together with the definition of financial liability and

equity instrument on initial recognition.

10.4.1 Classification recognition and measurement of financial liabilities

On initial recognition financial liabilities are classified into financial liabilities at FVTPL and

other financial liabilities.

10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities at FVTPL consist of financial liabilities held for trading (including derivatives

classified as financial liabilities) and those designated as at FVTPL. Except for derivative

financial liabilities presented separately the financial liabilities at FVTPL are presented as held-

for-trading financial liabilities.A financial liability is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied:

It has been acquired principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term; or

On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the

Group manages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual

pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL - continued

A financial liability is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied: -

continued

It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as a

hedging instrument.A financial liability may be designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition when one of the

following conditions is satisfied: (i) Such designation eliminates or significantly reduces

accounting mismatch; or (ii) The Group makes management and performance evaluation on a fair

value basis in accordance with the Group's formally documented risk management or investment

strategy and reports to key management personnel on that basis. (iii) The qualified hybrid

financial instrument combines financial asset with embedded derivatives.Held-for-trading financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value. Any gains or losses

arising from changes in fair value and any dividends or interest expenses paid on the financial

liabilities are recognized in profit or loss.For a financial liability designated as at FVTPL the amount of changes in fair value of the

financial liability that are attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability shall be

presented in other comprehensive income while other changes in fair value are included in profit

or loss for the current period. Upon the derecognition of such financial liability the accumulated

amount of changes in fair value that are attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability

which was recognized in other comprehensive income is transferred to retained earnings. Any

dividend or interest expense on the financial liabilities is recognized in profit or loss. If the

accounting treatment for the impact of the change in credit risk of such financial liability in the

above ways would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss the Group shall

present all gains or losses on that liability (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of

that liability) in profit or loss for the period.For financial liabilities arising from contingent consideration recognized by the Group as the

acquirer in the business combination not involving enterprises under common control the Group

measures such financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and includes the changes in

the financial liabilities in profit or loss for the period.- 37 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Except for financial liabilities financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments arising from

transfer of financial assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising from

continuing involvement in the transferred financial assets other financial liabilities are

subsequently measured at amortized cost with gain or loss arising from derecognition or

amortization recognized in profit or loss.If the modification or renegotiation for the contract by the Group and its counterparties does not

result in derecognition of a financial liability subsequently measured at amortized cost but the

changes in contractual cash flows the Group will recalculate the carrying amount of the financial

liability with relevant gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. The Group will determine the

carrying amount of the financial liability based on the present value of renegotiated or modified

contractual cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate of the financial liability.For all costs or expenses arising from modification or renegotiation of the contract the Group will

adjust the modified carrying amount of the financial liability and make amortization during the

remaining term of the modified financial liability.

10.4.1.3 Financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to

reimburse the holder of the contract for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make

payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.Subsequent to initial recognition financial guarantee contracts that are not designated as financial

liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities arising from transfer of

financial assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising from continuing

involvement in the transferred financial assets and loan commitments to provide a loan at a

below-market interest rate which are not designated at fair value through profit or loss are

measured at the higher of: (1) amount of loss provision; and (2) the amount initially recognized

less cumulative amortization amount determined based on the revenue standards.

10.4.2 Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Group derecognizes a financial liability (or part of it) when the underlying present obligation

(or part of it) is discharged. An agreement between the Group (the debtor) and the creditor to

replace the original financial liability with a new financial liability with substantially different

terms is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition

of a new financial liability.- 38 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

When the Group derecognizes a financial liability or a part of it it recognizes the difference

between the carrying amount of the financial liability (or part of the financial liability)

derecognized and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or new

financial liabilities assumed) in profit or loss.

10.4.3 Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group

after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued (including refinanced) repurchased

sold and cancelled by the Group are recognized as changes in equity. Changes in fair value of

equity instruments are not recognized by the Group. Transaction costs related to equity

transactions are deducted from equity.The Group recognizes the distribution to holders of the equity instruments as distribution of

profits and dividends paid do not affect total amount of shareholders' equity.

10.5 Derivatives and embedded derivatives

Derivatives include forward exchange contracts currency swaps interest rate swaps and foreign

exchange options etc. Derivatives are initially measured at fair value at the date when the

derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently measured at fair value.Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts with a financial asset host are not separated by the

Group. The hybrid contract shall apply the relevant accounting standards regarding the

classification of financial assets as a whole.Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts with hosts that are not financial assets are separated and

treated as separate derivatives by the Group when they meet the following conditions:

(1) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to

those of the host contract;

(2) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the

definition of a derivative;

(3) the hybrid contracts are not measured at fair value through profit or loss.

10.5 Derivatives and embedded derivatives - continued

For the embedded derivative separated from the host contracts the Group accounts for the host

contracts in the hybrid contracts with applicable accounting standards. When the embedded

derivatives whose fair value cannot be measured reliably by the Group according to the terms and

conditions of the embedded derivatives the fair value of such derivatives are measured at the

difference between the fair value of the hybrid contracts and the fair value of the host contracts.By adopting the above method if the embedded derivative cannot be measured on a stand-alone

basis at the time when it is acquired or at subsequent balance sheet dates the hybrid instrument is

designated as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss as a whole.

10.6 Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities

Where the Group has a legal right that is currently enforceable to set off the recognized financial

assets and financial liabilities and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the financial

asset and settle the financial liability simultaneously a financial asset and a financial liability shall

be offset and the net amount is presented in the balance sheet. Except for the above

circumstances financial assets and financial liabilities shall be presented separately in the balance

sheet and shall not be offset.

10.7 Compound instruments

For convertible bonds issued by the Group that contain both liabilities and conversion option that

may convert the liabilities to its own equity instrument upon initial recognition the bonds are

splitted into liabilities and conversion option which are separately recognized. Therein the

conversion option that exchanges a fixed amount of cash or other financial assets for a fixed

amount of equity instruments is accounted for as an equity instrument.Upon initial recognition the fair value of liability portion is determined based on the prevailing

market price of the bonds containing no conversion option. The overall issue price of the

convertible bonds net of the fair value of the liability portion is considered as the value of the

conversion option that enables the bonds holder to convert the bonds to equity instruments and is

included in other equity instruments.The liability portion of the convertible bonds is subsequently measured at amortized cost using

effective interest method; the value of the conversion option classified as equity instrument is

remained in equity instrument. The expiry or conversion of convertible bonds will not result in

loss or gain.- 40 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The transaction costs incurred for issuance of the convertible bonds are allocated between the

liability portion and equity instrument portion in proportion to their respective fair values. The

transaction cost relating to the equity instrument portion is directly included in equity instrument;

while the transaction cost relating to the liability portion is included in the carrying amount of the

liability and amortized over the lifetime of the convertible bonds using effective interest method.

10.8 Reclassification of financial instruments

When the Group changes the business model to manage the financial assets the financial assets

affected will be reclassified and no financial liabilities will be reclassified.The financial assets are reclassified by the Group and are accounted for prospectively since the

date of reclassification (i.e. the first date of the initial reporting period after the business model of

which the financial assets are reclassified by the enterprise is changed).Where a financial asset at amortized cost is reclassified as a financial asset at fair value through

profit or loss ("FVTPL") by the Group such financial asset is measured at fair value at the date of

reclassification and the difference between the original carrying amount and the fair value is

recognized in profit or loss for the period.Where a financial asset at amortized cost is reclassified as a financial asset at fair value through

other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI") by the Group such financial asset is measured at fair

value at the date of reclassification and the difference between the original carrying amount and

the fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income.Where a financial asset at FVTOCI is reclassified as a financial asset at amortized cost by the

Group the accumulated gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are

transferred out and the fair value at the date of reclassification is adjusted. The adjusted fair value

is determined as the new carrying amount as if the financial asset has been always measured at

amortized cost. The reclassification of the financial asset shall not affect its effective interest rate

or the measurement of ECL.Where a financial asset at FVTOCI is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTPL by the Group

such financial asset continues to be measured at fair value. At the same time the accumulated

gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to profit or

loss for the period.Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified as a financial asset at amortized cost by the

Group the fair value at the date of reclassification is determined as the new gross carrying

amount.- 41 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

11. Accounts receivable

The Group makes internal credit ratings on customers and determines expected loss rate of notes

receivable accounts receivable other receivables and long-term receivables. Basis for

determining ratings and the expected loss rates are as follows:

Internal Expected average

Basis for determining portfolio

credit rating loss rate (%)

Customers can make repayments within credit term and have good

A credit records based on historical experience. The probability of default 0.00-0.10

on payment of due amounts is extremely low in the foreseeable future.The customers may have overdue payment based on historical

B 0.10-0.30

experience but they can make repayments.The evidence indicates that the overdue credit risks of the customers are

C 0.30-50.00

significantly increased and there is probability of default on payment.The evidence indicates that the accounts receivable are impaired or the

D customers have significant financial difficulty. The amounts cannot be 50.00-100.00

recovered in the foreseeable future.

12. Receivables financing

Notes receivable classified as at FVTOCI should be listed as receivables financing within one

year (including one year) from the date of acquisition. Those over one year should be listed as

other debt investments. For related accounting policies refer to Note (IV) 10.

13. Inventories

13.1 Category of inventories

The Group's inventories mainly include raw materials merchandise and others. Inventories are

initially measured at cost. Cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase costs of conversion

and other expenditures incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.- 42 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

13.2 Valuation method of inventories upon delivery

The actual cost of inventories upon delivery is calculated using the weighted average method and

first-in-first-out method.

13.3 Basis for determining net realizable value of inventories and provision methods for

decline in value of inventories

At the balance sheet date inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. If

the cost of inventories is higher than the net realizable value a provision for decline in value of

inventories is made.Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the

estimated costs of completion the estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes.Net realizable value is determined on the basis of clear evidence obtained after taking into

consideration the purposes of inventories being held and effect of post balance sheet events.Provision for decline in value of inventories is made based on the excess of cost of inventory over

its net realizable value on an item-by-item basis.After the provision for decline in value of inventories is made if the circumstances that

14. Contract assets

14.1 Recognition and criteria of contract assets

A contract asset represents the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services

that the Group has transferred to a customer and such right depends on factors other than the

passage of time. The Group's unconditional (i.e. depending on the passage of time only) right to

receive consideration from the customer is separately presented as receivables.

14.2 Determination and accounting treatment for expected credit loss ("ECL") of contract

assets

Refer to Note (IV) 10.2 "Impairment of financial instruments" for determination and accounting

treatment for expected credit loss of contract assets.

15. Assets held-for-sale

Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held-for-sale category when the Group

recovers the carrying amount through a sale (including an exchange of nonmonetary assets that

has commercial substance) rather than continuing use.Non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held-for-sale are required to satisfy the

following conditions: (1) the 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; (2) the sale is highly probable i.e. the Group has made a resolution about selling plan and

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

year.When there is loss of control over a subsidiary due to disposal of investments in the subsidiary

and the proposed disposal of investments in the subsidiary satisfies classification criteria of held-

for-sale category the investments in subsidiaries are classified as held-for-sale category as a

whole in the Company's separate financial statements and all assets and liabilities of subsidiaries

are classified as held-for-sale category in the consolidated financial statements regardless of

whether that part of the equity investments are remained after the sale.The Group measures the non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held-for-sale at the

lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Where the carrying amount is

higher than the net amount of fair value less costs to sell carrying amount should be reduced to

the net amount of fair value less costs to sell and such reduction is recognized in impairment loss

of assets and included in profit or loss for the period. Meanwhile provision for impairment of

held-for-sale assets is made. When there is an increase in the net amount of fair value of non-

current assets held-for-sale less costs to sell at the balance sheet date the original deduction

should be reversed in impairment loss of assets recognized after the classification of held-for-sale

category and the reversal amount is included in profit or loss for the period. The impairment

losses recognized before such assets are classified as held-for-sale category shall not be reversed.- 44 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Non-current assets classified as held-for-sale or non-current assets in disposal groups are not

depreciated or amortized and interest and other costs of liabilities of disposal groups classified as

held-for-sale continue to be recognized.All or part of equity investments in associates or joint ventures are classified as held-for-sale

assets. For the part that is classified as held-for-sale it is no longer accounted for using the equity

method since the date of the classification.If an asset or a disposal group has been classified as held-for-sale but the recognition criteria for

held-for-sale are no longer met the Group shall cease to classify the asset or disposal group as

held-for-sale. It shall be measured at the lower of (1) the carrying amount before the asset or

disposal group was classified as held-for-sale adjusted for any depreciation amortization or

impairment that would have been recognized had the asset or disposal group not been classified as

held-for-sale; and (2) the recoverable amount at the date of the decision not to sell.For equity investments in associates or joint ventures that are classified as held-for-sale but the

classification criteria for held-for-sale are no longer met such investments are accounted for

retrospectively using the equity method from the date when they are classified as held-for-sale.The financial statements for the period in which the held-for-sale assets are held are adjusted

accordingly.

16. Long-term equity investments

16.1 Basis for determining joint control and significant influence over investee

Control is archived when the Group has the power over the investee and has rights to variable

returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect its

returns. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an economic activity and

exists only when the strategic financial and operating policy decisions relating to the activity

require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Significant influence is the power to

participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint

control over those policies. When determining whether an investing enterprise is able to exercise

control or significant influence over an investee the effect of potential voting rights of the

investee (for example warrants and convertible debts) held by the investing enterprises or other

parties that are currently exercisable or convertible shall be considered.- 45 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

16.2 Determination of initial investment cost

For a long-term equity investment acquired through business combination involving enterprises

under common control share of carrying amount of owners' equity of the acquiree in the

consolidated financial statements of ultimate controlling party is recognized as initial investment

cost of long-term equity investment at the date of combination. The difference between initial

investment cost of long-term equity investment and cash paid non-cash assets transferred and

carrying amount of liabilities assumed is adjusted in capital reserve. If the balance of capital

reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference any excess is adjusted to retained earnings. If the

consideration of the combination is satisfied by the issue of equity securities the initial

investment cost of the long-term equity investment is the share of carrying amount of owners'

equity of the acquiree in the consolidated financial statements of ultimate controlling party at the

date of combination. The aggregate face value of the shares issued is accounted for as share

capital. The difference between the initial investment cost and the aggregate face value of the

shares issued is adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient to

absorb the difference any excess is adjusted to retained earnings. Where equity interests in an

acquiree are acquired in stages through multiple transactions ultimately constituting a business

combination involving enterprises under common control the acquirer shall determine if these

transactions are considered to be a "package deal". If yes these transactions are accounted for as a

single transaction where control is obtained. If no the initial investment cost of the long-term

equity investment is the share of carrying amount of owners' equity of the acquiree in the

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

difference between the initial investment cost and the sum of carrying amount of equity

investments previously held in the acquiree and the new investment cost is adjusted to capital

reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference any excess is

adjusted to retained earnings. Other comprehensive income recognized for the previously held

equity investments by accounting treatment of equity method or non-trading equity instrument

investments designated as at FVTOCI is not subject to accounting treatment temporarily.For a long-term equity investment acquired through business combination not involving

enterprises under common control the investment cost of the long-term equity investment

acquired is the cost of acquisition.The expenses incurred by the acquirer in respect of auditing legal services valuation and

consultancy services and other associated administrative expenses attributable to the business

combination are recognized in profit or loss when they are incurred.- 46 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

16.2 Determination of initial investment cost - continued

The long-term equity investment acquired otherwise than through a business combination is

initially measured at its cost. When the entity is able to exercise significant influence or joint

control (but not control) over an investee due to additional investment the cost of long-term

equity investments is the sum of the fair value of previously-held equity investments determined

in accordance with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.22 - Financial Instruments:

Recognition and Measurement (ASBE No. 22) and the additional investment cost.

16.3 Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss

16.3.1 Long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method

Long-term equity investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method in the

Company's separate financial statements. A subsidiary is an investee that is controlled by the

Group.Under the cost method a long-term equity investment is measured at initial investment cost. When

additional investment is made or the investment is recouped the cost of the long-term equity

investment is adjusted accordingly. Investment income is recognized in the period in accordance

with the attributable share of cash dividends or profit distributions declared by the investee.

16.3.2 Long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method

Except for investments in associates and joint ventures classified as held-for-sale partly or wholly

the Group accounts for investment in associates and joint ventures using the equity method. An

associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and a joint venture is a joint

arrangement whereby the Group only has rights to the net assets of the arrangement.Under the equity method where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment

exceeds the Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of

acquisition no adjustment is made to the initial investment cost. Where the initial investment cost

is less than the Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of

acquisition the difference is recognized in profit or loss for the period and the cost of the long-

term equity investment is adjusted accordingly.- 47 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

16.3 Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss - continued

16.3.2 Long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method - continued

Under the equity method the Group recognizes its share of the net profit or loss and other

comprehensive income of the investee for the period as investment income and other

comprehensive income for the period. Meanwhile the carrying amount of long-term equity

investment is adjusted; the carrying amount of long-term equity investment is decreased in

accordance with its share of the investee’s declared profit or cash dividends; other changes in

owners’ equity of the investee other than net profit or loss and other comprehensive income are

correspondingly adjusted to the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment and

recognized in capital reserve. The Group recognizes its share of the investee’s net profit or loss

based on the fair value of the investee’s individual identifiable assets etc. at the acquisition date

after making appropriate adjustments. When the investee’s accounting policies and accounting

period are inconsistent with those of the Group the Group recognizes investment income and

other comprehensive income after making appropriate adjustments to conform to the Group's

accounting policies and accounting period. However unrealized gains or losses resulting from the

Group’s transactions with its associates and joint ventures which do not constitute a business are

eliminated based on the proportion attributable to the Group and then investment gains or losses

are recognized. However unrealized losses resulting from the Group's transactions with its

associates and joint ventures which represent impairment losses on the transferred assets are not

eliminated.The Group discontinues recognizing its share of net losses of the investee after the carrying

amount of the long-term equity investment together with any long-term interests that in substance

form part of its net investment in the investee are reduced to zero. In addition if the Group has

incurred obligations to assume additional losses a provision is recognized according to the

obligation expected and recorded in the investment loss for the period. Where net profits are

subsequently made by the investee the Group resumes recognizing its share of those profits only

after its share of the profits exceeds the share of losses previously not recognized.

16.4 Disposal of long-term equity investments

On disposal of a long-term equity investment the difference between the proceeds actually

received and receivable and the carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss for the period.- 48 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method if the remaining interest

after disposal is still accounted for using the equity method other comprehensive income

previously recognized using the equity method is accounted for on the same basis as would have

been required if the investee had directly disposed of related assets or liabilities and transferred to

profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis; owners' equity recognized due to other changes in

owners' equity of the investee (other than net profit or loss other comprehensive income and

profit distribution) is transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis. For long-term

equity investments accounted for using the cost method if the remaining interest after disposal is

still accounted for using the cost method other comprehensive income previously recognized

using the equity method or in accordance with the standards for the recognition and measurement

of financial instruments before obtaining the control over the investee is accounted for on the

same basis as would have been required if the investee had directly disposed of related assets or

owners' equity in the investee's net assets recognized under the equity method (other than net

profit or loss other comprehensive income and profit distribution) is transferred to profit or loss

for the period on a pro rata basis.Where the Group loses control over the investee due to disposal of part of shares and in preparing

the separate financial statements remaining shares after disposal can have joint control or

significant influence over the investee the equity method shall be adopted to adjust the remaining

shares as they are accounted for under equity method since the acquisition date. If remaining

shares after disposal cannot have joint control or significant influence over the investee they are

accounted for in accordance with the standards for recognition and measurement of financial

instruments and the difference between fair value on date of losing control and carrying amount

is recognized in profit or loss for the period. Other comprehensive income recognized using the

equity method or in accordance with the standards for the recognition and measurement of

financial instruments before losing control over the investee is accounted for on the same basis as

would have been required if the investee had directly disposed of related assets or liabilities when

the control over the investee is lost; other changes in owners' equity in the investee's net assets

recognized under the equity method (other than net profit or loss other comprehensive income

and profit distribution) is transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis. Where

remaining shares after disposal are accounted for under equity method other comprehensive

income and other owners' equity are transferred on a pro rata basis. Where remaining shares after

disposed of related assets or liabilities when the equity method is not adopted and other changes

in owners' equity other than net profit or loss other comprehensive income and profit distribution

are transferred to investment income for the period when the equity method is not adopted.The Group disposes of its equity investment in subsidiaries through multiple transactions step by

step until it loses control over the subsidiaries. If these transactions belong to "package deal" all

transactions are deemed as one transaction on disposal of equity investment in subsidiaries and

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

investment is recognized as other comprehensive income and transferred to profit or loss for the

period when the control is lost.

17. Investment properties

Investment property is the property held by the Group to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or

both. It includes a land use right that is leased out and a building that is leased out.An investment property is measured initially at cost. Subsequent expenditures incurred for such

investment property are included in the cost of the investment property if it is probable that

economic benefits associated with the investment property will flow to the Group and the

subsequent expenditures can be measured reliably. Other subsequent expenditures are recognized

in profit or loss for the period in which they are incurred.The Group uses the cost model for subsequent measurement of investment property and adopts a

depreciation or amortization policy for the investment property which is consistent with that for

buildings or land use rights.An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when the investment property is

permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal.When an investment property is sold transferred retired or damaged the Group recognizes the

amount of any proceeds on disposal net of the carrying amount and related taxes in profit or loss

for the period.- 50 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

18. Fixed assets and depreciation

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

services for rental to others or for administrative purposes and have useful lives of more than

one accounting year. A fixed asset is recognized only when it is probable that economic benefits

associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.Fixed assets are initially measured at cost. Upon being restructured into a stock company the

fixed assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on the

valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department.Subsequent expenditures incurred for the fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset if it

is probable that economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the

subsequent expenditures can be measured reliably. Meanwhile the carrying amount of the

replaced part is derecognized. Other subsequent expenditures are recognized in profit or loss for

the period in which they are incurred.A fixed asset is depreciated over its useful life using the straight-line method starting from the

month subsequent to the one in which it is ready for intended use. The useful life estimated net

residual value rate and annual depreciation rate of each category of fixed assets are as follows:

Estimated net Annual

Category residual value rate depreciation rate

Useful life

(%)(%)

Port and terminal facilities 5-50 years 5.00 1.90-19.00

Buildings and structures 5-50 years 5.00 1.90-19.00

Machinery and equipment furniture

3-20 years 5.00 4.75-31.67

and fixture and other equipment

Motor vehicles and cargo ships 5-25 years 5.00 3.80-19.00

Estimated net residual value of a fixed asset is the estimated amount that the Group would

currently obtain from disposal of the asset after deducting the estimated costs of disposal if the

asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life.If a fixed asset is upon disposal or no future economic benefits are expected to be generated from

its use or disposal the fixed asset is derecognized. When a fixed asset is sold transferred retired

or damaged the amount of any proceeds on disposal of the asset net of the carrying amount and

related taxes is recognized in profit or loss for the period.The Group reviews the useful life and estimated net residual value of a fixed asset and the

depreciation method applied at least once at each financial year-end and accounts for any change

as a change in accounting estimates.- 51 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

19. Construction in progress

Construction in progress is measured at its actual costs. The actual costs include various

construction expenditures during the construction period borrowing costs capitalized before it is

ready for intended use and other relevant costs. Construction in progress is not depreciated.Construction in progress is transferred to a fixed asset when it is ready for intended use.

20. Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition construction or production of qualifying

asset are capitalized when expenditures for such asset and borrowing costs are incurred and

activities relating to the acquisition construction or production of the asset that are necessary to

prepare the asset for its intended use or sale have commenced. Capitalization of borrowing costs

ceases when the qualifying asset being acquired constructed or produced becomes ready for its

intended use or sale. Capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended during periods in which the

acquisition construction or production of a qualifying asset is interrupted abnormally and when

the interruption is for a continuous period of more than 3 months. Capitalization is suspended

until the acquisition construction or production of the asset is resumed. Other borrowing costs are

recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.Where funds are borrowed under a specific-purpose borrowing the amount of interest to be

capitalized is the actual interest expense incurred on that borrowing for the period less any bank

interest earned from depositing the borrowed funds before being used on the asset or any

investment income on the temporary investment of those funds. Where funds are borrowed under

general-purpose borrowings the Group determines the amount of interest to be capitalized on

such borrowings by applying a capitalization rate to the weighted average of the excess of

cumulative expenditures on the asset over the amounts of specific-purpose borrowings. The

capitalization rate is the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the general-purpose

borrowings. During the capitalization period exchange differences related to a specific-purpose

borrowing denominated in foreign currency are all capitalized. Exchange differences in

connection with general-purpose borrowings are recognized in profit or loss for the period in

which they are incurred.- 52 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

21. Intangible assets

21.1 Intangible assets

Intangible assets include land use rights terminal operating rights and others.An intangible asset is measured initially at cost. Upon being restructured into a stock company

the intangible assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on

the valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department. Except for

terminal operating rights when an intangible asset with a finite useful life is available for use its

original cost is amortized over its estimated useful life. The terminal operating rights under the

output method are amortized over periods according to the ratio of the estimated minimum

guaranteed throughput to the estimated minimum guaranteed total throughput during the operation

period. When the estimated minimum guaranteed throughput cannot be measured reliably the

straight-line method will be used for amortization. An intangible asset with indefinite useful life

will not be amortized.The amortization method useful life and estimated net residual value of various intangible assets

are as follows:

Category Amortization method Useful life (year) Residual value (%)

Land use rights Straight-line method 40-50 -

Terminal operating right Output/Straight-line method 30-50 -

Others Straight-line method 5-50 -

For an intangible asset with a finite useful life the Group reviews the useful life and amortization

method at the end of the year and makes adjustments when necessary.

21.2 Research and development expenditure

Expenditure during the research phase is recognized in profit or loss for the period in which it is

incurred.Expenditure during the development phase that meets all of the following conditions at the same

time is recognized as intangible asset. Expenditure during development phase that does not meet

the following conditions is recognized in profit or loss for the period.

(1) it is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use

or sale.

(2) the Group has the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it.

(3) the Group can demonstrate the ways in which the intangible asset will generate economic

benefits including the evidence of the existence of a market for the output of the

intangible asset or the intangible asset itself or if it is to be used internally the usefulness

of the intangible asset.- 53 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

the Group recognizes all of them in profit or loss for the year. The costs of intangible assets

generated by the internal research only include the total expenditure incurred for the period from

the time point of capitalization to the time point when the intangible assets are ready for intended

use. For the identical intangible asset the expenditures recorded as expenses before they qualify

for capitalization during the development process are not adjusted.

22. Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill

The Group assesses at the balance sheet date whether there is any indication that long-term equity

investments investment properties measured at cost method fixed assets construction in

progress right-of-use assets intangible assets with a finite useful life and assets related to contract

costs may be impaired. If there is any indication that such assets may be impaired recoverable

amounts are estimated for such assets. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life and intangible

assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually irrespective of whether there is

any indication that the assets may be impaired.Recoverable amount is estimated on an individual basis. If it is not practical to estimate the

recoverable amount of an individual asset the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the

asset belongs will be estimated. 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.If the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount the deficit

is accounted for as an impairment loss and is recognized in profit or loss.Once the impairment loss of above-mentioned assets is recognized it shall not be reversed in any

subsequent period.

23. Long-term prepaid expenses

Long-term prepaid expenses represent expenses incurred that should be borne and amortized over

the current and subsequent periods (together of more than one year). Long-term prepaid expenses

are amortized using the straight-line method over the expected periods in which benefits are

derived.- 54 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

25.1 Short-term employee benefits

Short-term benefits refer to the employee benefits that the Group is required to make full

payments within 12 months after the annual reporting period during which relevant services are

provided by the employees except the post-employment benefits and termination benefits.Specifically the short-term benefits include: employee salaries bonuses allowances and

subsidies employee benefits social insurance contributions such as the medical insurance and the

work injury insurance housing funds trade union funds and employee education funds short-

term paid absence short-term profit sharing plan non-monetary welfare and other short-term

benefits.Short-term employee benefits payable are recognized as liabilities with a corresponding charge to

profit or loss for the period or in the costs of relevant assets in the accounting period in which

employees provide services to the Group. Staff welfare expenses incurred by the Group are

recognized in profit or loss for the period or the costs of relevant assets based on the actually

occurred amounts when they actually occurred. Non-monetary staff welfare expenses are

measured at fair value.Payment made by the Group of social security contributions for employees such as premiums or

contributions on medical insurance work injury insurance and maternity insurance etc. and

payments of housing funds as well as union running costs and employee education costs provided

in accordance with relevant requirements are calculated according to prescribed bases and

percentages in determining the amount of employee benefits and recognized as relevant liabilities

with a corresponding charge to profit or loss for the period or the costs of relevant assets in the

accounting period in which employees provide services.- 55 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Post-employment benefits refer to the rewards and benefits of various forms provided by the

Group after the employees have retired or terminated the labor relationship with the enterprise for

the services rendered by the employees except the short-term benefits and the termination

benefits. The post-employment benefits consist of the pension insurance the annuity the

unemployment insurance and other post-employment benefits.Post-employment benefit plans are classified by the Group into defined contribution plans and

defined benefit plans. The post-employment benefit plan refers to the agreements the Group

entered into with the employees on the post-employment benefits or the regulations or measures

established by the Group for provisions of the post-employee benefits among which the defined

contribution plans refer to the post-employment benefit plan under which the Group shall no

longer undertake any obligations of payments after paying fixed expenses to independent funds;

the defined benefit plans refer to the post-employment benefit plans other than the defined

contribution plans. During the accounting period in which employees render services to the

Group the amounts payable calculated based on the defined contribution plans are recognized as

liabilities and included in profit or loss for the period or costs of related assets.For defined benefit plans the Group attributes the welfare obligations arising from the defined

benefit plans to the period in which employees provide services to the Group according to the

formula determined based on the projected cumulative benefit unit method and includes them in

profit or loss for the period or costs of related assets. Defined benefit costs are categorized as

follows:

Service cost (including current service cost past service cost as well as gains and losses on

settlements);

Net interest of net liabilities or assets of defined benefit plans (including interest income of

planned assets interest expenses of defined benefit plan liabilities and effect of asset

ceiling); and

Changes arising from remeasurement of net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans.Service costs and net interest of net liabilities and net assets of defined benefit plans are

recognized in profit or loss for the period or costs of related assets. Remeasurement of the net

defined benefit liabilities (assets) (including actuarial gains and losses the return on planned

assets excluding amounts included in net interest on net defined benefit liabilities (assets) and

any changes in the effect of the asset ceiling excluding amounts included in net interest on net

defined benefit liabilities (assets)) are recognized in other comprehensive income.The deficit or surplus resulting from the present value of the defined benefit plan obligations less

the fair value of the defined benefit plan assets is recognized as a net defined benefit plan liability

25.3 Termination benefits

Termination benefits refer to the compensations the Group pay to the employees for terminating

the employment relationship with employees before the expiry of the employment contracts or

encouraging employees to accept voluntary redundancy. When the Group provides termination

benefits to employees employee benefit liabilities are recognized for termination benefits with a

corresponding charge to profit or loss for the period at the earlier of: (1) when the Group cannot

unilaterally withdraw the offer of termination benefits because of the termination plan or a

curtailment proposal; and (2) when the Group recognizes costs or expenses related to restructuring

that involves the payment of termination benefits.

25.4 Other long-term employee benefits

Other long-term employee benefits refer to all employee benefits except for short-term benefits

post-employment benefits and termination benefits.Other long-term employee benefits that qualify as defined contribution plans are treated in

accordance with the relevant provisions of the defined contribution plans mentioned above except

that the net liability or net asset for other long-term employee benefits is recognized and measured

in accordance with the relevant provisions of the defined benefit plans. At the end of the reporting

period employee compensation costs arising from other long-term employee benefits are

recognized as three components: service cost net interest on net liability or net asset for other

long-term employee benefits and changes resulting from the remeasurement of the net liability or

net asset for other long-term employee benefits. The total net amount of these items is included in

profit or loss for the period or in the costs of related assets.The Group provides internal retirement benefits to employees accepting the internal retirement

arrangements. Internal retirement benefits refer to the payments of salaries and social security

contributions for employees who reach the retirement age regulated by the country and are

approved to quit the job voluntarily. For internal retirement benefits the internal retirement

benefits the Group is expected to pay during the period from the date when employees stop

providing services to the date of normal retirement are recognized as liabilities at the present

value and included in profit or loss for the period when relevant recognition requirements of the

internal retirement benefits are met.

26. Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation related to a contingency it is

probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and the

amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.- 57 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

26. Provisions - continued

The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle

the present obligation at the balance sheet date taking into account factors pertaining to a

contingency such as the risks uncertainties and time value of money. Where the effect of the time

value of money is material the amount of the provision is determined by discounting the related

future cash outflows.Where all or some of the expenditure required to settle a provision is expected to be reimbursed

by a third party the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset only when it is virtually

certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of reimbursement recognized does

not exceed the carrying amount of the provision.

27. Revenue recognition

The Group's revenue is mainly from the following business types:

(1) Port service;

(2) Bonded logistics service;

(3) Other business such as property development and investment.

The Group recognizes revenue based on the transaction price allocated to the performance

obligation when the Group satisfies a performance obligation in the contract namely when the

customer obtains control over relevant goods or services. A performance obligation is a

commitment that the Group transfers a distinct goods or service to a customer in the contract. The

transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in

exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer excluding amounts collected

on behalf of third parties and amounts expected to be refunded to a customer.It is a performance obligation satisfied during a period of time and the Group recognizes revenue

during a period of time according to the progress of performance if one of the following

conditions is met: (i) the customer obtains and consumes economic benefits at the same time of

the Group's performance; (ii) the customer is able to control goods or services in progress during

the Group's performance; (iii) goods or services generated during the Group's performance have

irreplaceable utilization and the Group is entitled to collect amounts of cumulative performance

part which have been done up to now. Otherwise revenue is recognized at a point in time when

the customer obtains control over the relevant goods or services.The Group adopts output method i.e. the value of goods or services transferred to customers to

determine the appropriate progress of performance. Where the progress cannot be determined

reasonably the revenue is recognized based on the amount of cost that is expected to be

compensated based on the cost already incurred until the progress of performance is reasonably

determined.- 58 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

27. Revenue recognition - continued

Contract assets refer to the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that

the Group has transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than

the passage of time. For the details of accounting policies on impairment of contract assets please

see Note (IV) 10. The Group's unconditional (i.e. depending on the passage of time only) right to

receive consideration from the customer is separately presented as receivables.Contract liabilities refer to the Group's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for

consideration received or receivable from the customer.Contract assets and contract liabilities under the same contract will be presented on a net basis.If there are two or more of performance obligations included in the contract at the inception of

the contract the Group allocates the transaction price to each single performance obligation based

on the proportion of stand-alone selling price of goods or services promised in each stand-alone

performance obligation. However if there is conclusive evidence indicating that the contract

discount or variable consideration is only relative with one or more (not the whole) performance

obligations in the contract the Group will allocate the contract discount or variable consideration

to relative one or more performance obligations. Stand-alone selling price refers to the price of a

single sale of goods or services. If the stand-alone selling price cannot be observed directly the

Group estimates the stand-alone selling price through comprehensive consideration of all relative

information that can be reasonably acquired and maximum use of observable inputs.In case of the existence of variable consideration (such as sales discount) in the contract the

Group shall determine the best estimate of variable consideration based on the expected value or

the most probably occurred amount. The transaction price including variable consideration shall

not exceed the amount of the cumulatively recognized revenue which is unlikely to be

significantly reversed when relevant uncertainty is eliminated. At each balance sheet date the

Group re-estimates the amount of variable consideration which should be included in transaction

price.If the customer pays non-cash consideration the Group determines the transaction price based on

the fair value of the non-cash consideration. If the fair value of non-cash consideration cannot be

reasonably estimated the Group shall determine the transaction price indirectly by reference to

the stand-alone selling price of the goods or services promised to transfer to the customer.In case of the existence of a significant financing component in the contract the Group shall

determine the transaction price on the assumption that the customer has paid the amount payable

by cash when obtaining the control over the goods or services. Differences between transaction

price and contract consideration are amortized using effective interest method during the contract

life. At the inception of the contract if the period between when the Group transfers a promised

goods or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that goods or service will be one

year or less the Group would not consider the significant component in the contract.- 59 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IV) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

27. Revenue recognition - continued

The Group assesses whether it controls each specified goods or service before that goods or

service is transferred to the customer to determine whether the Group is a principal or an agent. If

the Group controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a

customer the Group is a principal and recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration

received or receivable. Otherwise the Group is an agent and recognizes revenue in the amount of

any fee or commission to which it expects to be entitled. The fee or commission is the net amount

of consideration that the Group retains after paying the other party the consideration received in

exchange for the goods or services to be provided by that party or is determined in accordance

with the established commission amount or percentage etc.Where the Group receives receipts in advance from a customer for sales of goods or rendering of

services the amount is first recognized as a liability and then transferred to revenue when the

related performance obligation has been satisfied. When the Group's receipts in advance are not

required to be refunded and it is probable that the customer will waive all or part of its contractual

rights the Group recognizes the said amounts as revenue on a pro-rata basis in accordance with

the pattern of exercise of the customer's contractual rights if the Group expects to be entitled to

the amounts relating to the contractual rights waived by the customer; otherwise the Group

reverses the related balance of the said liabilities to revenue only when it is highly unlikely that

the customer will require performance of the remaining performance obligations.

28. Contract costs

28.1 Costs of obtaining a contract

For the incremental cost of obtaining the contract (cost that will not occur if the contract is not

obtained) that is expected to be recoverable it is recognized as an asset. If the amortization period

of such asset is less than one year it is recognized in profit or loss for the period when incurred.Other expenses incurred for obtaining the contract is included in profit or loss for the period when

incurred except for those explicitly assumed by the customer.

28.2 Costs to fulfil a contract

If the costs incurred in fulfilling a contract are not within the scope of any standards other than

Revenue Standards the Group recognizes an asset only if those costs meet all of the following

criteria: (1) the costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Group can

specifically identify; (2) the costs enhance resources of the Group that will be used in satisfying

performance obligations in the future; and (3) the costs are expected to be recovered. The asset

mentioned above shall be amortized on a basis that is consistent with the revenue recognition of

the goods or services to which the asset relates and recognized in profit or loss for the period.- 60 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

28.3 Losses of assets related to contract costs

In determining the impairment losses of assets related to contract costs the Group first determines

the impairment losses of other assets related to contracts recognized in accordance with other

ASBE; then for assets related to contract costs if the carrying amount of the assets is higher than

the difference between: (1) the remaining consideration that the Group expects to obtain for the

transfer of the goods or services related to the assets; and (2) the estimated costs to be incurred for

the transfer of the related goods or services any excess is provided for impairment and recognized

as impairment loss of assets.After the provision for impairment of assets related to contract costs is made if the factors of

impairment in previous periods change so that the difference between the above two is higher than

the carrying amount of the assets the original provision for impairment of the assets is reversed

and recognized in profit or loss for the period provided that the carrying amount of the assets

after the reversal does not exceed the carrying amount of the assets at the date of reversal

assuming no provision for impairment was made.

29. Government grants

Government grants are transfer of monetary assets or non-monetary assets from the government to

the Group at no consideration. A government grant is recognized only when the Group can

comply with the conditions attached to the grant and the Group will receive the grant.If a government grant is in the form of a transfer of a monetary asset it is measured at the amount

received or receivable. If a government grant is in the form of a non-monetary asset it is

measured at fair value. If the fair value cannot be reliably determined it is measured at a nominal

amount. A government grant measured at a nominal amount is recognized immediately in profit

or loss for the period.A government grant related to an asset is recognized as deferred income and evenly amortized to

profit or loss over the useful life of the related asset. A government grant measured at a nominal

amount is recognized immediately in profit or loss in the current period. Where the relevant asset

is sold transferred retired or damaged prior to the end of its useful life the related undistributed

deferred income is transferred to profit or loss of the disposal period.- 61 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

29. Government grants - continued

For a government grant related to income if the grant is a compensation for related expenses or

losses to be incurred in subsequent periods the grant is recognized as deferred income and

recognized in profit or loss for the period in which the related costs or losses are recognized; If the

grant is a compensation for related expenses or losses already incurred the grant is recognized

immediately in profit or loss.For government grants both related to asset and income different parts are distinguished for

accounting treatment; if it is difficult to distinguish they should be classified as government

grants related to income as a whole.A government grant related to the Group's daily activities is recognized in other income based on

the nature of economic activities; a government grant not related to the Group's daily activities is

recognized in non-operating income.

30. Income tax

The income tax expenses include current income tax and deferred income tax.

30.1 Current income tax

At the balance sheet date current income tax liabilities (or assets) for the current and prior periods

are measured at the amount expected to be paid (or recovered) according to the requirements of

tax laws.

30.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities

For temporary differences between the carrying amounts of certain assets or liabilities and their

tax base or between the nil carrying amount of those items that are not recognized as assets or

liabilities and their tax base that can be determined according to tax laws deferred tax assets and

liabilities are recognized using the balance sheet liability method.Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred

tax assets for deductible temporary differences are recognized to the extent that it is probable that

taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be

utilized. However for temporary differences associated with the initial recognition of goodwill

and the initial recognition of an asset or liability arising from a transaction which is not a

business combination that affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profits (or deductible

losses) at the time of transaction no deferred tax asset or liability is recognized.For deductible losses and tax credits that can be carried forward deferred tax assets are

recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against

which the deductible losses and tax credits can be utilized.- 62 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

30.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities - continued

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with

investments in subsidiaries associates and joint ventures except where the Group is able to

control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the

temporary differences will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising

from deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries associates and

joint ventures are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be

available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized and they are expected

to be reversed in the foreseeable future.At the balance sheet date deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates

applicable in the period in which the asset is realized or the liability is settled according to tax

laws.Current and deferred tax expenses or income are recognized in profit or loss for the period except

when they arise from transactions or events that are directly recognized in other comprehensive

income or shareholders' equity in which case they are recognized in other comprehensive income

or shareholders' equity and when they arise from business combinations in which case they

adjust the carrying amount of goodwill.At the balance sheet date the carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed and reduced if it

is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available in the future to allow the

benefit of deferred tax assets to be utilized. Any such reduction in amount is reversed when it

becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

30.3 Income tax offsetting

When the Group has a legal right to settle on a net basis and intends either to settle on a net basis

or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously current tax assets and current tax

liabilities are offset and presented on a net basis.When the Group has a legal right to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis and

deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation

authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle

current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and liabilities

simultaneously in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or

liabilities are expected to be reversed deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset and

presented on a net basis.- 63 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

31. Leases

A lease is a contract in which the lessor for a certain period of time gives the lessee the right to

use the assets to obtain a consideration.For contracts entered into the Group assesses whether the contract is or contains a lease at the

commencement date. Such contract will not be reassessed unless the terms and conditions of the

contract are subsequently changed.

31.1 The Group as lessee

31.1.1 Separating components of a lease

For a contract that contains one or more lease components or non-lease components the Group

separates each individual lease and non-lease component and allocates the contract consideration

in the relative proportion of the sum of the individual price of each lease component and the

individual price of the non-lease component.

31.1.2 Right-of-use assets

Except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets the Group recognizes the right-of-use

assets of the leases at the commencement date. The commencement date of the lease is the date

from which the lessor provides the leased assets to make them available for use by the Group.Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost. The cost includes:

the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities.any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives.any initial direct costs incurred by the Group.an estimate of costs to be incurred by the Group in dismantling and removing the underlying

asset 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.Right-of-use assets are depreciated by the Group in accordance with the ASBE No.4 Fixed

Assets. If the Group is reasonably certain that the lease will transfer ownership of the underlying

asset to the Group by the end of the lease term the right-of-use assets are depreciated from the

commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise the right-of-

use assets are depreciated from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life

of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease term.The Group applies ASBE No. 8 Impairment of Assets to determine whether the right-of-use

assets are impaired and to account for any impairment loss identified.- 64 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

31.1.3 Lease liabilities

Except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets the Group initially measures lease

liabilities at the present value of the outstanding lease payments at the commencement date. In

calculating the present value of the lease payments the Group uses the implicit interest rate of the

lease as the discount rate. If it is not possible to determine the implicit interest rate of the lease

the incremental borrowing rate shall be applied.The lease payments comprise the following payments by the Group for the right to use the

underlying asset during the lease term:

fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives.variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate.the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that

option.payments for terminating the lease if the lease term reflects the Group exercising an option

to terminate the lease.amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees.Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are initially measured using the index

or rate as at the commencement date. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of

the lease liabilities are recognized in profit or loss or in the cost of relevant assets in the period

of those payments.After the commencement date interest expenses on the lease liabilities in each period during the

lease term is calculated by a constant periodic rate of interest and included in profit or loss or

charged to cost of related assets.After the commencement date the Group shall remeasure the lease liabilities and make

corresponding adjustments to the related right-of-use assets in the following circumstances. 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 Group shall recognize the difference in profit or loss:

where there is a change in the lease term or in the assessment of an option to purchase the

underlying asset the Group remeasures the lease liabilities on the basis of the revised lease

term and the revised discount rate;

where there is a change in the amounts expected to be payable under a residual value

guarantee or in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to

determine those payments the Group remeasures the lease liabilities on the basis of the

revised lease payments and the unchanged discount rate unless the change in the lease

payments results from a change in floating interest rates in which case a revised discount

rate is applied to calculate the present value.- 65 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

31.1.4 Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The Group elects not to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for short-term leases and

leases of low-value assets i.e. port and terminal facilities buildings machinery and equipment

furniture fixture and other equipment motor vehicles and cargo ships and others. A short-term

lease is a lease that at the commencement date has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not

contain a call option. A lease of low-value assets is a lease that the value of the underlying asset

is less than RMB50000 when it is new. For short-term leases and leases of low-value assets the

Group recognizes the lease payments in profit or loss or in the cost of related assets on a straight-

line basis over each period within the lease term.

31.1.5 Lease modifications

A lease modification should be accounted for as a separate lease if both of the following apply:

the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more

underlying assets.the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone

price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price

according to the circumstances of the particular contract.For a lease medication that is not accounted for as a separate lease at the effective date of the

lease modification the Group should allocate the consideration in the modified contract

determine the lease term of the modified lease and remeasure the lease liabilities based on the

present value of the changed lease payments and the revised discount rate.For lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease or shorten the term of the lease the

Group should decrease the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets with any gain or loss

relating to the partial or full termination of the lease recognized in profit or loss. For re-

measurement of lease liabilities due to other lease modifications a corresponding adjustment is

made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets.

31.2 The Group as lessor

31.2.1 Separating components of a lease

For a contract that contains lease components and non-lease components the Group allocates the

contract consideration in accordance with the Revenue Standards on allocation of transaction

prices based on the respective individual prices of the lease components and the non-lease

components.- 66 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

31.2.2 Classification of leases

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the

risks and rewards of ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

31.2.2.1 The Group as lessor under operating leases

The Group recognizes lease receipts from operating leases as rental income using a straight-line

method over the respective periods of the lease term. The Group's initial direct costs incurred in

connection with operating leases are capitalized when the costs incurred and are allocated to

profit or loss for the period over the lease term on the same basis as the recognition of rental

income.Variable lease receipts acquired by the Group in connection with operating leases that are not

included in the lease receipts are recognized in profit or loss for the period when they are actually

incurred.

31.2.2.2 The Group as lessor under finance leases

At the commencement date the Group recognizes a finance lease receivable at the amount equal

to the net lease investment with assets under finance lease derecognized. The net lease investment

is the sum of any unguaranteed residual value and the present value of the lease receipts over the

lease term discounted at the interest rate implicit in lease.The lease receivable comprises the following payments collected by the Group from the lessee for

the transfer of the right to use the underlying assets during the lease term:

fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) paid by the lessee less any lease

incentives.variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate.the exercise price of a purchase option provided that it is reasonably determined that the

lessee will exercise the option.payments for terminating the lease provided that the lease term reflects that the lessee will

exercise the option to terminate the lease;

residual value of guarantee provided to the Group by the lessee a party related to the lessee

and an independent third party with the financial ability to fulfil the guarantee obligations.Variable lease receipts not included in the net lease investment are recognized in profit or loss

when they are actually incurred.Interest income for each period over the lease term is calculated and recognized by the Group at a

fixed periodic rate.- 67 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

31.2.3 Subleases

As the lessor of a sublease the Group accounts for the original lease contract and the sublease

contract on a separate basis. The Group classifies the subleases based on the right-of-use assets

generating from the original lease rather than the underlying assets of the original lease.

31.2.4 Lease modifications

The Group accounts for a modification to an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date

of the modification considering any lease advances or receivables relating to the original lease as

the lease receipts for the new lease.A lease modification should be accounted for as a separate lease if there is a modification in a

finance lease and both of the followings apply:

the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more

underlying assets; and

the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone

price for the increase in scope with any appropriate adjustment to that stand-alone price.For a modification to a finance lease that is not accounted for as a separate lease the Group

accounts for the modification as follows:

If the lease would have been classified as an operating lease had the modification been

effective at the commencement date the Group should account for the lease modification as

a new lease from the effective date of the modification and measure the carrying amount of

the underlying assets at the amount equal to the net lease investment before the effective

date of the modification;

If the lease would have been classified as a finance lease had the modification been effective

at the commencement date the Group should account for it in accordance with the

provisions on contract modification and renegotiation under Accounting Standards for

Business Enterprises No. 22 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.- 68 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

31.3 Sale and leaseback transactions

31.3.1 The Group as the seller-lessee

The Group assesses and determines whether the transfer of an asset in a sale and leaseback

transaction constitutes a sale according to the requirements of Revenue Standards. If the transfer

of an asset does not constitute a sale the Group continues to recognize the transferred asset and

recognizes a financial liability at an amount equal to the transfer proceeds which is accounted for

under the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 22 - Financial Instruments:

Recognition and Measurement. If the transfer of an asset constitutes a sale the Group measures

the right-of-use assets arising from the leaseback transaction at the proportion of the original

carrying amount of the asset that relates to the use right obtained from leaseback and recognizes

any gain or loss only on the basis of the rights transferred to the lessor.

31.3.2 The Group as the buyer-lessor

If the transfer of an asset in a sale and leaseback transaction does not constitute a sale the Group

does not recognize the transferred asset but a financial asset at an amount equal to the transfer

proceeds and accounts for such financial asset under the Accounting Standards for Business

Enterprises No. 22 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. If the transfer of an

asset constitutes a sale the Group accounts for the purchase of the asset in accordance with other

applicable Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises and accounts for the lease of the asset.

32. Exchange of non-monetary assets

When the non-monetary assets are of commercial substance and the fair value of assets received

or the assets given up can be measured reliably the non-monetary transactions are measured at

fair value. For the asset received the fair value of the asset given up and related taxes payable are

recognized as the cost at initial recognition; For the asset given up at derecognition the

difference between the fair value and the carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss for the

current period. When there is clear evidence indicating that the fair value of the received asset is

more reliable for the asset received the fair value of the asset received and related taxes payable

are recognized as the cost at initial recognition; For the asset given up at derecognition the

difference between the fair value of the asset received and the carrying amount of the asset given

up is recognized in profit or loss for the current period.When the non-monetary transactions fail to meet criteria to be measured at fair value the

transactions are measured at carrying amounts. For the asset received the carrying amount of the

asset given up and relevant taxes payable are recognized as the cost of at initial recognition. For

the asset given up at derecognition no profit or loss is recognized.- 69 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that can be clearly distinguished and satisfies

one of the following conditions and such component has been disposed of or is classified as held-

for-sale:

(1) Such component represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations.

(2) Such component is part of the separate major line of business or geographical area of operations

to be disposed of based on the associated plan.

(3) Such component is a subsidiary acquired exclusively for the purpose of resale.

Gains or losses from discontinued operations are presented separately from those from continuing

operations in the income statement. Operating gains or losses such as impairment losses from

discontinued operations and the amount of reversals and the gains or losses from disposals are

presented as discontinued operations. For discontinued operations presented in the current period

the Group restates the information previously presented as gains or losses from continuing

Emergency Department on 13 December 2022 safety production cost set aside by the Group is

directly included in the cost of relevant products or recognized in profit or loss for the period and

transferred to special reserve simultaneously. When safety production cost set aside is utilized if

the costs incurred can be categorized as expenditure the costs incurred should be charged against

the special reserve. If the costs set aside are used to build up fixed assets the costs should be

charged to construction in progress and reclassified to fixed assets when the safety projects are

ready for intended use. Meantime expenditures in building up fixed assets are directly charged

against the special reserve with the accumulated depreciation recognized at the same amount.Depreciation will not be made in the future period on such fixed assets.

35. Share-based payments

A share-based payment is a transaction which the Group grants equity instruments in return for

services rendered by employees or other parties. The Group's share-based payments include

equity-settled share-based payments.Equity-settled share-based payments in exchange for services rendered by employees are

measured at fair value of the equity instruments granted to employees at the grant date. Such

amount is recognized as related costs or expenses on a straight-line basis over the vesting period

based on the best estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest/ as related costs or

expenses at the grant date if the equity instruments could be vested immediately with a

corresponding increase in capital reserve.- 70 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(V) CRITICAL JUDGMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND KEY

ASSUMPTIONS AND UNCERTAINTIES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

In the application of accounting policies and accounting estimates as set out in Note (IV) the

Group is required to make judgments estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of

items in the financial statements that cannot be measured accurately due to the internal

uncertainty of the operating activities. These judgments estimates and assumptions are based on

historical experience of the Group's management as well as other factors that are considered to be

relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.The Group regularly reviews the judgments estimates and assumptions on a going concern basis.Changes in accounting estimates which only affect the current period should be recognized in the

current period; changes which not only affect the current but the future periods should be

recognized in the current and future periods. At the balance sheet date key assumptions and

uncertainties in critical judgments and accounting estimates that are likely to lead to significant

adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the future are as follows:

Goodwill impairment

For the purpose of impairment testing the present value of the expected future cash flows of the

assets group or portfolio including goodwill shall be calculated and such expected future cash

flows shall be estimated. Meantime a pre-tax rate shall be determined that should reflect the time

value of money on the current market and the specific interest risks.Recognition of deferred income tax

The Group calculates and makes provision for deferred tax liabilities according to the profit

distribution plans of subsidiaries associates and joint ventures and relevant provisions of tax law.For retained earnings of the investee which are not expected to be distributed since the profits

will be used for the daily operation and future development of the investee no deferred tax

liabilities are recognized. If the profits to be actually distributed in future years are more or less

than those expected corresponding deferred tax liabilities will be recognized or reversed in profit

or loss for the period at the earlier of the date on which the profit distribution plan is changed and

the date on which the profit distribution is declared.Deferred tax assets are recognized based on the deductible temporary differences and the

corresponding tax rate to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available

against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. If the actual taxable income in

future years are more or less than that expected corresponding deferred tax assets will be

recognized or reversed in profit or loss for the period in which they are actually incurred.- 71 -CHINA MERCHANTS PORT GROUP CO. LTD.NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

ASSUMPTIONS AND UNCERTAINTIES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - continued

Estimated useful lives and residual value of fixed assets and intangible assets

The Group assesses the estimated useful lives and residual value of fixed assets and intangible

assets. Such estimate is made by reference to the historical experience of actual useful lives and

residual value of fixed assets and intangible assets of similar nature and function and is subject to

significant changes due to technical innovation and fierce industry competition. Where the

estimated useful lives and residual value of fixed assets and intangible assets are less than the

previous estimates the Group will increase the depreciation and amortization or write off or

eliminate the technically obsolete fixed assets or intangible assets.(VI) CHANGES IN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING

the land use rights for berth and storage yard within Chiwan Port area obtained by the

Group from Nanshan Group with an area of 815234.87 ㎡ and the land use rights for

Dachanwan Port area Phase II obtained by ASJ of which the costs are RMB

1235852249.87 and RMB 918521317.23 respectively.

The land use rights for berth and storage yard within Chiwan Port area obtained by the

Company upon restructuring of the Company while the remaining land use rights are

obtained from Nanshan Group by way of long-term lease. Up to date Nanshan Group has

not yet obtained the land use rights in respect of the lands within Chiwan watershed

including aforementioned capital contribution and land lease to the Group therefore the

Group cannot obtain the ownership certificate for relevant land and buildings on such

land. The Company's management understood that Nanshan Group is negotiating with

relevant government departments regarding the historical issues and the date when the

Group can obtain the ownership certificate of relevant land and buildings on such land

cannot be estimated reliably.

(4) Impairment test of goodwill and key parameters

When testing the goodwill for impairment the Group compares the carrying amount of related

asset groups and portfolio of asset groups (including goodwill) with the recoverable amount. If the

recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount the difference is included in profit or loss for

the period. The Group determines the recoverable amount of the asset groups and portfolio of

asset groups that generate goodwill at fair value less cost of disposal or at present value of

expected future cash flows. The fair value is determined using market approach. The present

value of cash flows is estimated based on the forecast of cash flows for 5 years to 26 years

detailed forecast period and subsequent forecast period. The estimated future cash flows for the

detailed forecast period are based on the business plan established by the management; the

expected future cash flows for the subsequent forecast period are determined in conjunction with

the level of the final year of the detailed forecast period combined with the Group's business

plans industry trends and inflation rates. The growth rate adopted will not exceed the long-term

average growth rate of the country where the asset groups and portfolio of asset groups are

located. The key assumptions used by the Group in estimating the present value of future cash

flows include growth rate and discount rate etc. The pre-tax discount rate and the growth rate for

subsequent forecast period adopted in 2022 are 11.20%-20.47% and 2.00%-2.62% respectively.The parameters of key assumptions determined by the Group's management are in line with the

Group's historical experience or external source of information.

(3) Description of performance obligations

The Group provides port service bonded logistics service and other services. These services are

obligations performed over a period of time. For port services as the handling time for containers

and bulk cargos is short the management believes that it is not necessary to recognize revenue

according to the progress towards the completion of contract and it is an appropriate method to

recognize the fulfilment of performance obligation and revenue upon the completion of the

service. For bonded logistics service and other services the customers evenly obtain and consume

the economic benefits from the Group's performance of contract meanwhile the charging rules as

agreed in the contract terms usually adopt daily/month/yearly basis. During the process of

rendering services the Group recognizes revenue using straight-line method.Part of the Group's handling contracts are established with discount terms i.e. the customers

whose business volume reaches agreed level are granted with preferential charge rate or discount.At the end of the year as the business volume finally realized within the contract period is

uncertain the contract consideration is subject to variable factors. The management includes this

part of discount in other payables and provisions. At the end of the year the variable

considerations arising from sales discount are set out in Note (VIII) 33 (3) and Note (VIII) 41.

(XI) RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

1. Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that losses will occur because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The

Group's exposure to the currency risk is primarily associated with HKD USD and EUR. Except

for part of the purchases and sales the Group's other principal activities are denominated and

settled in RMB. As at 31 December 2022 the balances of the Group's assets and liabilities are

both denominated in functional currency except that the assets and liabilities set out below are

recorded using foreign currencies. Currency risk arising from the foreign currency balance of

assets and liabilities may have impact on the Group's performance.Item 31/12/2022 31/12/2021

Long-term payables - 3433175756.61

The Group closely monitors the effects of changes in the foreign exchange rates on the Group's

currency risk exposures. According to the current risk exposure and judgment on the exchange

rate movements the management considers it is unlikely that the exchange rate changes in the

next year will result in significant loss to the Group.Sensitivity analysis on currency risk

The assumption for the sensitivity analysis on currency risk is that all the cash flow hedges and

hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation are highly effective. On the basis of the above

assumption where all other variables are held constant the reasonably possible changes in the

foreign exchange rate may have the following pre-tax effect on the profit or loss for the period

and shareholders' equity:

(XI) RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - continued

2. Interest rate risk - changes in cash flows

Risk of changes in cash flows of financial instruments arising from interest rate changes is mainly

related to bank loans with floating interest rate. (See Note (VIII) 26 and Note (VIII) 36). The

Group continuously and closely monitors the impact of interest rate changes on the Group's

interest rate risk. The Group's policy is to maintain these borrowings at floating rates. Presently

the Group has no arrangement such as interest rate swaps.Sensitivity analysis on interest rate risk

Sensitivity analysis on interest rate risk is based on the following assumptions:

Fluctuations of market interest rate can affect the interest income or expense of a financial

instrument with floating interest rate;

For a financial instrument at fair value with fixed interest rate the fluctuations of market interest

rate can only affect its interest income or expense;

For a derivative financial instrument designated as hedging instrument the fluctuations of market

interest rate affect its fair value and all interest rate hedges are expected to be highly effective;

The changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments and other financial assets and

liabilities are calculated using cash flow discounting method by applying the market interest rate at

balance sheet date.On the basis of above assumptions where the other variables held constant the pre-tax effect of

possible and reasonable changes in interest rate on the profit or loss for the period and

shareholders' equity are as follows:
