Dear Sirs,
VERY SUBSTANTIAL AND DEEMED CONNECTED
TRANSACTION IN RELATION TO CAPITAL
COMMITMENT INTO AN INVESTMENT FUND
I.INTRODUCTION
The Company announced on 17 November 2014, among other things, that Chance Bright
(being a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) entered into the Subscription Agreement and
the Second GP Amendment Agreement, pursuant to which Chance Bright agreed to increase its
capital commitment to the Fund and the General Partner by USD250 million and USD3.95 million,
respectively.
The Fund is a jointly controlled and managed investment platform of the Group established to
invest in real estate projects in the PRC.
—6—
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
As (i) the highest applicable percentage ratio calculated with reference to Rule 14.07 of the
Listing Rules exceeds 100% and (ii) the Capital Commitment may be funded by the proceeds to be
raised from the issue of 1.3 billion convertible preference shares in the capital of the Company to a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Sino-Ocean Land, a controlling shareholder and a connected person of
the Company, the Capital Commitment constitutes a very substantial transaction and is expected to
constitute a deemed connected transaction for the Company under the Listing Rules.
The purpose of this circular is to provide you with, among other things, (i) details of the
Second GP Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement and the Capital Commitment; (ii)
the letter from the Independent Board Committee setting out its recommendation to the Independent
Shareholders; (iii) the letter of advice from the Independent Financial Adviser to the Independent

On 26 September 2014, SOL HK (through its wholly-owned subsidiary), the General
Partner, KKR SPRE and the then other limited partners of the Fund entered into a first
amendment agreement to amend the Fund LPA (the “First Amendment Agreement”), pursuant
to which KKR SPRE and the then other limited partners of the Fund withdrew as limited
partners of the Fund. Following the date of the First Amendment Agreement and before the

In addition, on 26 September 2014, Chance Bright, the Ultimate General Partner, KKR
SPRE and CCAH entered into a first amendment agreement to amend the GP LPA (the “First
GP Amendment Agreement”) pursuant to which (i) KKR SPRE withdrew as a limited partner
of the General Partner and (ii) CCAH was admitted as a new limited partner of the General
Partner. As a result, Chance Bright and CCAH are the only two limited partners of the General
Partner each with a capital commitment to the General Partner of USD1.05 million, as at the
Latest Practicable Date.
Further, on 26 September 2014, KKR SPRE sold and transferred all its interests in the
JV Entities to CCAH. As a result, Chance Bright and CCAH co-own the JV Entities on an
equal basis.

On 21 October 2014, the General Partner, SOL HK (through its wholly-owned

Hence, Chance Bright, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, as another limited
partner of the Fund, opted and agreed to increase its capital commitment to the Fund by

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
III. COMPANY’S INVESTMENT IN THE GENERAL PARTNER AND THE FUND
On 17 November 2014 (after trading hours), the Ultimate General Partner, CCAH and
Chance Bright entered into a second amendment agreement to amend the GP LPA (the “Second
GP Amendment Agreement”), pursuant to which each of CCAH and Chance Bright agreed to
increase their respective capital commitments to the General Partner, from USD1.05 million, by
USD3.95 million, to USD5 million, as they wish to maintain their respective capital commitments
to the General Partner on an equal basis. Completion of the Second GP Amendment Agreement is
conditional upon the Independent Shareholders’ approval of the Capital Commitment at the EGM.
Pursuant to a subscription agreement dated 17 November 2014 entered into between the General
Partner and the Fund, the General Partner agreed to make a capital commitment to the Fund of USD10
million, representing around 2% of the total capital commitment to the Fund, so that its interest is
aligned with other limited partners of the Fund. Completion of such subscription agreement is also
conditional upon Independent Shareholders’ approval of the Capital Commitment at the EGM. The
Directors are of the view that this structure is in line with the market practice to align the interests of
the general partner and the limited partners and therefore, benefit the Fund’s fund raising ability.
On 17 November 2014 (after trading hours), the General Partner, the Fund and Chance Bright
entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), pursuant to which Chance
Bright agreed to increase its capital commitment to the Fund by USD250 million, which is conditional
upon the passing by the Independent Shareholders of the resolution(s) to approve the Subscription
Agreement and the Capital Commitment at the EGM.
The terms of the Second GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement, including
the amount of the Capital Commitment, are determined after arms’ length negotiation between the
parties with reference to the capital requirement of the Fund and anticipated expenses of the JV
Entities, respectively.
The Company intends to fund the Capital Commitment from the proceeds to be raised from the
issue of 1.3 billion convertible preference shares in the capital of the Company to a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Sino-Ocean Land, details of which were set out in the Company’s joint announcement
with Sino-Ocean Land dated 26 October 2014 and the announcement and circular of the Company
dated 24 November 2014 and 27 November 2014 respectively. Should such issuance of convertible
preference shares not proceed, the Company intends to fund the Capital Commitment from its internal
resources or borrowings from Sino-Ocean Land Group.
If the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement and the Capital
Commitment are not approved at the EGM:
(a)
no additional capital commitment will be made to the General Partner by either Chance
Bright or CCAH such that Chance Bright and CCAH will maintain their interests
(including rights and benefits) in each of the General Partner and the JV Entities (being
the Ultimate General Partner and the Management Company) on an equal basis; and
(b)
no additional capital commitment by Chance Bright will be made to the Fund, and
Chance Bright will only maintain a USD100 capital commitment to the Fund.
— 13 —
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
In such event, the Board understands from CCAH that it intends to increase its capital
commitment to the Fund from USD250 million to at least USD463 million to enable the Fund SPV to
complete the Acquisition. As such, the economic interest of the Company in the Fund will be diluted
to nearly 0% (as CCAH’s capital commitment to the Fund will amount to at least USD463 million
but Chance Bright’s capital commitment to the Fund will only be at a nominal amount of USD100),
but its interest (including rights and benefits) in each of the General Partner and the JV Entities will
remain unchanged.
The following chart sets forth the shareholding structure of the Fund following the execution
of the Second GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement (and after the Independent
Shareholders’ approval has been obtained):

V.
FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE CAPITAL COMMITMENT ON THE GROUP
As the Company holds 50% of the issued share capital of the JV Entities (being the Ultimate
General Partner and the Management Company), none of the Fund, the General Partner and the JV
Entities are subsidiaries of the Company, and the financial results of the Fund are not consolidated
to the Group. After drawdown of Capital Commitment by the Fund, the profit or loss of the Fund is
equity accounted-for by the Group as interests in joint ventures and share of result of joint ventures
disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position and consolidated income statement of the
Group respectively. The net asset value of the Group is expected to remain unchanged as the increase
in interests in joint ventures is expected to be offset by the decrease in cash balances by, utilising,
possibly, the proceeds to be raised from the issue of 1.3 billion convertible preference shares in the
capital of the Company to fund the Capital Commitment.
VI.
INVESTMENT BY THE FUND
Since the Fund fully realised its then only invested property project in early 2013, the Fund
was dormant and did not make any investment until the entering into the Acquisition Agreement

On 5 November 2014, the Fund SPV (as purchaser) entered into the Acquisition Agreement

mentioned above, the Fund has not identified any suitable investment opportunities so far.
(a)Consideration
Subject to adjustment, the total consideration payable by the Fund SPV to SOL HK
for the Acquisition is USD463 million. The total consideration was determined after arm’s
length negotiations between the parties to the Acquisition Agreement with reference to, among
others, the valuation of projects held by the Target Group, unaudited financial statements of
Target Group as well as the principal amount of the Shareholder’s Loan of Target Group of
RMB2,603.3 million as at 30 September 2014.
Under the Acquisition Agreement, SOL HK has agreed to a comprehensive set of
warranties, including but not limited, to those in respect the unaudited financial statements of
the Target Group as at 30 September 2014. These warranties shall be true, accurate and not
misleading at the date of the Acquisition Agreement, at Acquisition Completion and at all times
before Acquisition Completion. SOL HK has further agreed to indemnify the Fund SPV for any
losses, expenses or claims resulting from any breach of warranties by SOL HK. In addition, the
Fund SPV has been conducting its own legal and financial due diligence on the Target Group,
the satisfactory result of which is one of the conditions precedent to Acquisition Completion.

30 days after signing of the Acquisition Agreement; and
(iii) the Fund SPV shall pay USD231.50 million (being 50% of the total consideration) upon

fulfilled or (if applicable) waived, which include, amongst others, (a) the due diligence results
on the Target Group and the Shareholder’s Loan of Target Group being satisfactory to the
Fund SPV; (b) an aggregate of at least USD463 million capital commitment to the Fund being
available for drawdown; (c) SOL HK having obtained all necessary consents, permissions and
authorisations to perform its obligations under the Acquisition Agreement and to duly assign
the Shareholder’s Loan of Target Group; and (d) the entry into the Acquisition Agreement by
the parties thereto not materially breaching any laws, rules, regulations or binding documents.
The Fund SPV may waive condition (a) above. SOL HK does not have the right to waive
any of the conditions precedent under the Acquisition Agreement.
Currently, the Fund SPV has no intention to waive any condition precedent.
If the conditions precedents are not fulfilled or (if applicable) waived on or before
31 December 2014 (or such other date as the parties may agree in writing), the Acquisition
Agreement shall terminate, without prejudice to the rights and interests accrued to the parties
prior to such termination. As at the Latest Practicable Date, none of the above conditions

the 12-month-period following the date of the completion, the Directors understand
from the Fund that the Fund will raise more capital as required, including but not
limited to by (i) introducing more investors as limited partners of the Fund and (ii)
disposal of any properties of the Target Group to realise cash, to ensure sufficient
working capital.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
VIII. REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE CAPITAL COMMITMENT
The Fund was established to invest in property projects in the PRC in 2011. After realignment
of senior management resources in 2013 (details of which can be found in the announcement of the
Company dated 9 August 2013) and introducing CCAH as a new partner into the Fund in 2014, the
Group intends to provide more resources, through investing into the Fund, in upgrading and enhancing
quality to property projects that are in development stage or distressed and special situation, in
addition to its existing strategy of direct investment in Hong Kong and overseas property projects, as
mentioned in the Company’s 2014 interim report.
The Directors are of the view that the Fund will serve as a convenient platform through which
the Group can tap into a larger pool of potential value-enhancing property acquisitions through its
participation in the Fund, as the Fund has higher fund raising flexibility by admitting new limited
partners such that the Group (indirectly through the Fund) may take advantage of timely market
opportunities.
The Directors consider the Acquisition to be a good starting point to implement this investment
strategy which the Directors believe the long-term development potential of the property projects can
be realised through proactive asset management and asset enhancement by the Fund. The Directors
understood that the Fund has been in discussions with various parties and is currently considering
different investment opportunities of property projects that are in the development stage or distressed
and in special situations (such as properties in foreclosure or any other situations where the Company
may consider suitable) in the PRC. As disclosed in page 30 of this circular, the principal business
of the Group is properties and securities investment, fund investment and management. Despite the
Company’s strategy to explore investment opportunities in Hong Kong and overseas property under
its property investment business, the Fund’s decision to enter into the Acquisition investing in the
PRC property market is in line with the Company’s fund investment and management business.
The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors whose views have been
set out in the letter from the Independent Board Committee on pages 35 to 36 of this circular after
taking into account the advice of the Independent Financial Adviser) consider that the terms of
each of the Second GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement which sets out the
amount of the Capital Commitment to the General Partner and to the Fund respectively are on normal
commercial terms and are fair and reasonable. Although the Fund is not a subsidiary of the Company,
the Company can still exert its influence on the Fund through its joint control as a general partner
of the Fund. Therefore, the Directors consider that the Capital Commitment is in the interests of the
Company and its Shareholders as a whole.
As (i) Mr. Li Ming, a non-executive director of Company and a director of Sino-Ocean Land,
and (ii) Mr. Sum Pui Ying, an executive director of the Company, are both directors of Grand Beauty
Management Limited (being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sino-Ocean Land and the subscriber
of the 1.3 billion convertible preference shares), each of them was considered to have a potential
material conflict of interests in the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement
and the Capital Commitment and had abstained from voting at the Board meeting of the Company
which approved the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement and the Capital
Commitment. Save as aforesaid, none of the Directors had a material interest in the transactions in
the Capital Commitment, and none of them was required to abstain from voting on the relevant Board
resolution(s) to approve the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement and the
Capital Commitment.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
IX. FINANCIAL ADVISER, INDEPENDENT BOARD COMMITTEE AND INDEPENDENT
FINANCIAL ADVISER
Anglo Chinese Corporate Finance, Limited has been appointed as the financial adviser to the
Company in relation to the Capital Commitment.
The Independent Board Committee comprising Mr. Law Tze Lun, Mr. Lo Woon Bor, Henry
and Mr. Zheng Yun, being all the independent non-executive Directors, has been formed to advise
the Independent Shareholders on matters in relation to the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the
Subscription Agreement and the Capital Commitment.
The Company has, with the approval of the Independent Board Committee, appointed Yu Ming
as the independent financial adviser in accordance with the requirements under the Listing Rules to
advise the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders on matters in relation to
the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement and the Capital Commitment.
X.
LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS
As the Capital Commitment may be funded by the proceeds to be raised from the issue of 1.3
billion convertible preference shares in the capital of the Company to a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Sino-Ocean Land, a controlling shareholder and a connected person of the Company, the Capital
Commitment is expected to constitute a deemed connected transaction for the Company under the
Listing Rules.
As the highest applicable percentage ratio calculated with reference to Rule 14.07 of the
Listing Rules exceeds 100% in relation to the Capital Commitment, it constitutes a very substantial
transaction for the Company under the Listing Rules. The Company is subject to the reporting,
announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14 and 14A of the
Listing Rules.
Sino-Ocean Land and its associates, which directly and indirectly held 312,504,625 Shares
(representing approximately 69.74% of the issued share capital of the Company) as at the Latest
Practicable Date, will abstain from voting in respect of the resolution(s) approving the Second GP
Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement and the Capital Commitment at the EGM.
However, the Fund, the General Partner and the JV Entities (being the Ultimate General
Partner and the Management Company) are not subsidiaries of the Company and the Group has not
consolidated the financial results of the Fund, the General Partner and the JV Entities since their
establishment in 2011. The Acquisition is decided solely by the Fund, and Acquisition Completion
is not subject to the funding from the Capital Commitment. Therefore, the Acquisition does not
constitute a transaction for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules, nor a connected
transaction for the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

Committee in relation to the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement and the

13 December 2014
To the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders
Dear Sirs,
Very Substantial and Deemed Connected Transaction in relation to
Capital Commitment into an Investment Fund
INTRODUCTION
Reference is made to the announcement issued by the Company dated 17 November 2014
(the “Announcement”) in relation to, among others, the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the
Subscription Agreement and the Capital Commitment, details of which are set out in the letter from
the Board (“Letter from the Board”) contained in the circular of the Company to its shareholders
dated 13 December 2014 (the “Circular”), of which this letter forms part. Unless the context

On 17 November 2014, Chance Bright (being a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company)
entered into the Second GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement, pursuant to
which Chance Bright agreed to increase its capital commitment to the General Partner and the Fund

(“CPS”) to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sino-Ocean Land, a controlling shareholder and a connected
person of the Company, the Capital Commitment constitutes a very substantial transaction of the
Company and it is expected to constitute a deemed connected transaction for the Company under
the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Capital Commitment is subject to reporting, announcement and

representing approximately 69.74% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest

advise the Independent Shareholders as to whether (1) each of the Second GP Amendment Agreement
and the Subscription Agreement was entered into in the ordinary and usual course of business of
the Group, (2) the terms of the Second GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement
are fair and reasonable and on normal commercial terms, and (3) the Capital Commitment is in the

BASIS OF OUR OPINION
In formulating our opinion, we have relied on the statements, information, opinions and
representations contained in the Circular and the statements, information, opinions and representations
provided to us by the Directors through management, officers and professional advisers of the
Company (“Relevant Information”). We have assumed that all Relevant Information provided to
us by the Directors for which they are solely responsible are, to the best of their knowledge, true,
complete and accurate at the time they were made and continue to be so on the date of this letter.
We have no reason to suspect that any Relevant Information has been withheld, nor are
we aware of any fact or circumstance which would render the Relevant Information provided and
presented to us untrue, inaccurate, incomplete or misleading. Having made all reasonable enquiries,
the Directors have further confirmed that, to the best of their knowledge, they believe there are
no other facts or representations the omission of which would make any statement in the Circular,
including this letter, misleading. We have not, however, carried out any independent verification on
the Relevant Information provided to us by the Directors, nor have we conducted any independent
investigation into the business and affairs of the Group.
Principal factors and reasons considered
In arriving at our recommendation in respect of the terms of the Second GP Amendment
Agreement and the Subscription Agreement and the Capital Commitment and the transactions
contemplated thereunder, we have taken into consideration of the following principal factors and
reasons:
— 38 —
Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
I.
Background, reason and benefit of the Capital Commitment as proposed under the Second
GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement
(a)
Background , reasons and benefit of the Capital Commitment
The Company is a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong with limited
liability, the shares of which are listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange. The principal
business of the Company is investment holding. The Group has been principally engaged in
properties and securities investment, fund investment and management.
SOL HK is a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong and is a whollyowned subsidiary of Sino-Ocean Land whose shares are listed on the Main Board of the Stock
Exchange. SOL HK is a substantial shareholder of the Company. Sino-Ocean Land Group
is one of the leading property developers with developments in key economic regions in the
PRC and actively accomplishing the Sino-Ocean Land Group’s national strategic plan with a
coastal and riparian focus. The Sino-Ocean Land Group focuses on developing mid-to-high end
residential properties, high-end office premises and retail properties.
CCAH is a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and co-owned by a
number of investors in the PRC. The senior management of CCAH has years of experience
in economic research, corporate finance and asset management in the PRC. To the best of the
Directors’ knowledge, information and belief and having made all reasonable enquiries, each of
CCAH and its beneficial owner is an Independent Third Party.
As stated in the Letter from the Board, the Fund was established to invest in property
projects in the PRC in 2011. After realignment of senior management resources in 2013 (details
can be found in the announcement of the Company dated 9 August 2013) and introducing
CCAH as a new partner into the Fund in 2014, the Group intends to provide more resources,
through investing into the Fund, in upgrading and enhancing quality to property projects
that are in development stage or distressed and special situation, in addition to its existing
strategy of direct investment in Hong Kong and overseas property projects, as mentioned in the
Company’s 2014 interim report.
The Directors are of the view that the Fund will serve as a convenient platform through
which the Group can tap into a larger pool of potential value-enhancing property acquisitions
through its participation in the Fund, as the Fund has higher fund raising flexibility by
admitting new limited partners such that the Group (indirectly through the Fund) may take
advantage of timely market opportunities.
The Directors consider the Acquisition to be a good starting point to implement this
investment strategy which the Directors believe the long-term development potential of the
property projects can be realized through proactive asset management and asset enhancement by
the Fund. The Directors understood that the Fund has been conducting discussions with various
parties and is currently considering different investment opportunities of property projects
that are in the development stage or distressed and special situations (such as properties in
foreclosure or any other situations where the Company may consider suitable) in the PRC.
As disclosed in page 30 of the Circular, the principal business of the Group is properties

Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
and securities investment, fund investment and management. Despite the Company’s strategy
to explore investment opportunities in Hong Kong and overseas property under its property
investment business, the Fund’s decision to enter into the Acquisition investing in the PRC
property market is in line with the Company’s fund investment and management business.
The Directors consider that the terms of the Second GP Amendment Agreement and the
Subscription Agreement which sets out the amount of the Capital Commitment to the Fund are
on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable. Although the Fund is not a subsidiary
of the Company, the Company can still exert its influence on the Fund through its joint control
as a general partner of the Fund. Therefore, the Directors consider that the Capital Commitment
is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
(i)
For the year ended 31 December 2013
For the year ended 31 December 2013, the Group recorded a total revenue of
approximately HK$186.7 million (2012: approximately HK$50.5 million), representing
an increase of approximately 269.7%. The rise in revenue was mainly due to increase in
sales of gold bullions and management fee income by approximately HK$119.6 million
and HK$15.8 million respectively. The Group recorded a profit attributable to owners of
the Company of approximately HK$39.2 million (2012: approximately HK$6.6 million).
The significant increase in profit attributable to owners of the Company in 2013 was
mainly as a result of (i) the gain on one-off disposal of a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company, which owned certain units in Shui On Plaza in Shanghai, of approximately
HK$45.7 million; and (ii) the share of profit of joint ventures of approximately HK$26.7
million, offset by (a) the increase in overall staff costs of approximately HK$19.6
million which mainly arose from the amortization of share options granted during the
year; and (b) decrease in fair value gain from financial instruments held for trading of
approximately HK$12.4 million.
As at 31 December 2013, the audited net current assets and net assets of the Group
amounted to approximately HK$322.0 million and approximately HK$544.6 million,
respectively.
(ii)
For the six months ended 30 June 2014
For the six months ended 30 June 2014, the Group recorded total revenue of
approximately HK$61.7 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2013: approximately
HK$110.4 million), representing a decrease of approximately 44.1%. The decrease in
revenue was mainly as a result of, among other things, decrease in sales of gold bullions
by approximately HK$51.1 million. The Group recorded a loss attributable to owners
of the Company of approximately HK$18.0 million (for the six months ended 30 June
2013: a profit of approximately HK$58.2 million). Such loss was mainly attributable to
the absence of an one-off gain of approximately HK$45.7 million from the disposal of a
subsidiary recorded for the first half of 2013, decrease in share of profit of joint ventures
of approximately HK$25.3 million, and an increase in finance cost of approximately
HK$9.8 million due to the interest expenses arising from the unsecured and subordinated
shareholder’s loan amounted to HK$1,000 million granted by a subsidiary of Sino-Ocean
Land in August 2013.
As at 30 June 2014, the unaudited net current assets and net assets of the Group
amounted to approximately HK$697.1 million and approximately HK$508.3 million
respectively.

Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
II.
Terms of the Second GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement
On 17 November 2014, the Ultimate General Partner, CCAH and Chance Bright entered into
a second amendment agreement to amend the GP LPA (the “Second GP Amendment Agreement”),
pursuant to which each of CCAH and Chance Bright agreed to increase their respective capital
commitments to the General Partner by USD3.95 million from USD1.05 million to USD5 million,
as they wish to maintain their respective capital commitments to the General Partner on an equal
basis. Completion of the Second GP Amendment Agreement is conditional upon the Independent
Shareholders’ approval of the Capital Commitment at the EGM. Pursuant to a subscription agreement
dated 17 November 2014 entered into between the General Partner and the Fund, the General Partner
agreed to make a capital commitment to the Fund of USD10 million, representing around 2% of the
total capital commitment to the Fund, so that its interest is aligned with other limited partners of the
Fund. Completion of such subscription agreement is also conditional upon Independent Shareholders’
approval of the Capital Agreement at the EGM. The Directors are of the view that this structure is in
line with the market practice to align the interests of the general partner and the limited partners and
therefore, benefit the Fund’s fund raising ability.
On 17 November 2014, the General Partner, the Fund and Chance Bright entered into a
subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), pursuant to which Chance Bright agreed
to increase its capital commitment to the Fund by USD250 million, which is conditional upon the
passing by the Independent Shareholders of the resolution(s) to approve the Subscription Agreement
and the Capital Commitment at the EGM.
The terms of the Second GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement, including
the amount of the Capital Commitment, are determined after arms’ length negotiation between the
parties with reference to the capital requirement of the Fund and anticipated expenses of the JV
Entities respectively.
The Company intends to fund the Capital Commitment from the proceeds to be raised from
the issue of 1.3 billion CPS to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sino-Ocean Land, details of which
were set out in the Company’s joint announcement with Sino-Ocean Land dated 26 October 2014
and the announcement and circular of the Company dated 24 November 2014 and 27 November
2014 respectively. Should such issuance of the CPS not proceeded, the Company intends to fund the
Capital Commitment from its internal resources or borrowings from Sino-Ocean Land Group.
If the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement and the Capital
Commitment are not approved at the EGM:
(a)
no additional capital commitment will be made to the General Partner by either Chance Bright
or CCAH such that Chance Bright and CCAH will maintain their interests (including rights and
benefits) in each of the General Partner and the JV Entities (being the Ultimate General Partner
and the Management Company) on an equal basis; and
(b)
no additional capital commitment will be made by Chance Bright to the Fund, and Chance
Bright will only maintain a USD100 capital commitment to the Fund.

In such event, the Board understands from CCAH that it intends to increase its capital
commitment to the Fund from USD250 million to at least USD463 million to enable the Fund SPV to
complete the Acquisition. As such, the economic interest of the Company in the Fund will be diluted
to nearly 0% (as CCAH’s capital commitment to the Fund will amount to at least USD463 million
but Chance Bright’s capital commitment to the Fund will only be at a nominal amount of USD100),
but its interests (including rights and benefits) in each of the General Partner and the JV Entities will
remain unchanged.
Our view
In respect of terms and structure of the Capital Commitment as proposed in the Second GP
Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement, we noted that (i) the Fund is intended to
be jointly controlled by the Company and CCAH on equal basis at each level of the Fund, General
Partner and the Ultimate General Partner through general partnership or limited partnership interest
holding; (ii) the capital commitment of the additional USD3.95 million to be contributed by the
Company through Chance Bright to the General Partner and then to the Fund is in proportion to its
50% shareholding interest in the Ultimate General Partner and 50% limited partner interest at the
General Partner level; and (iii) the capital commitment of USD250 million to be contributed by the
Company through Chance Bright to the Fund will enable the Company to maintain its economic
interests to be the same as CCAH on an equitable basis, thus no unfair term is observed.
If the Capital Commitment is not approved to be made, the economic interests of the Company
at the Fund will be reduced while its interests in each of the General Partner and the JV Entities will
be maintained.
III. Management and policies of the Fund
(a)
Management of the Fund
The management and operation of the Fund (being an exempted limited partnership
registered under the laws of the Cayman Islands) shall be vested exclusively in the General
Partner, who shall have the power on behalf and in the name of the Fund to carry out any and
all of the purposes of the Fund and to perform all acts and enter into and perform all contracts
and other undertakings that it may deem necessary or advisable or incidental thereto. Without
limiting the foregoing, among other things, the General Partner is authorised and empowered
in the name of and on behalf of the Fund to make, own, manage, supervise and dispose of
investments of the Fund and to execute and deliver in the Fund’s name any and all instruments
necessary to effectuate such transactions. The limited partners of the Fund are passive investors
in the Fund and have no right to take part in the management or control of the Fund’s business
or to act for or bind the Fund.
— 43 —
Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
(b)
Management of the General Partner
The management and operation of the General Partner (being an exempted limited
partnership registered under the laws of the Cayman Islands) shall be vested exclusively in the
Ultimate General Partner, who shall have the power on behalf and in the name of the General
Partner to carry out any and all of the purposes of the General Partner and to perform all acts
and enter into and perform all contracts and other undertakings that it may deem necessary
or advisable or incidental thereto. The board of directors of the Ultimate General Partner
consists of four directors, two of which are appointed by Chance Bright and two of which are
appointed by CCAH. Resolutions shall be passed by simple majority votes. Through the board
representation, the Company can exert influence and exercise joint control over the Ultimate
General Partner, the General Partner and ultimately the Fund.
(c)
Distribution policy
At the Fund level
The net proceeds received by the Fund from each investment will be apportioned
among the General Partner and those limited partners who participated in such investment
based on their respective capital contributions to such investment, and distributed as
follows:
•
The portion of net proceeds so apportioned to the General Partner will be
distributed to the General Partner.
•
The portion of net proceeds so apportioned to each limited partner will be
distributed as follows:
(i) First, to such limited partner until it receives distributions equal to
all capital contributions made by it to fund such investment, any
previously disposed investments and its share of investment expenses,
management fees and partnership expenses allocated to those
investments.
(ii) Second, to such limited partners until it receives distributions equal
to a preferred return of 8% per annum, compounded annually, on the
amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (i) above.
(iii) Third, 100% to the General Partner until it receives distributions
equal to 20% of the sum of: (A) the distributions made to such limited
partner pursuant to sub-paragraph (ii) above; and (B) the distributions
made to the General Partner pursuant to this sub-paragraph (iii).
(iv) Thereafter, (A) 80% of any net proceeds remaining will be distributed
to such limited partner; and (B) 20% of any net proceeds remaining
will be distributed to the General Partner.
— 44 —
Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
The amount so distributed to the General Partner under (iii) and (iv) above is
referred to as its carried interest.
The net proceeds for distributions of each investment (or a portion thereof) are
determined by calculating the excess of:
(i)
the sum of (x) all cash received by the Fund (other than
contributions) in connection with such investment (or a portion
and (y) the fair value of such investment (or a portion thereof) that
of marketable securities that the General Partner determines (in
discretion) to distribute to the partners, over
capital
thereof)
consists
its sole
(ii) the Fund’s cash expenses paid or then due and payable and a reasonable
reserve (as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion) for
accrued or anticipated expenses and contingent liabilities of the Fund.
Distribution of proceeds must be made within 90 days following the receipt of the
amount determined to be distributed, if any (as calculated above) for each investment.
Limited partners of the Fund shall be obligated to return amounts distributed to
them to fund partnership expenses, including indemnification obligations, provided that
such obligations shall terminate on the third anniversary of the date of such distribution
and will not exceed 20% of such limited partner’s capital commitment.
At the General Partner level
Carried interest distributions received by the General Partner from the Fund
pursuant to the terms of the Fund LPA shall be distributed to the limited partners of
the General Partner in proportion to their respective capital commitment to the General
Partner.
(d)
Transfer of limited partnership interest
At the Fund level
A limited partner of the Fund may not sell, assign or otherwise transfer any
interest in the Fund without the prior written consent of the General Partner, which
consent may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion.
At the General Partner level
A limited partner of the General Partner may not sell, assign or otherwise transfer
any interest in the General Partner without the prior written consent of the Ultimate
General Partner, which consent may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion.
— 45 —
Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
Our view
As the management and operation of the Fund shall be vested exclusively in the General
Partner, the management and operation of the General Partner shall be vested exclusively in
the Ultimate General Partner, and Board of the Ultimate General Partner is structured to be
represented on equal basis by the Company and CCAH, we consider Chance Bright would
be able to have proportionate management representation and control in line with its equity
interest in the Ultimate General Partner and such management structure is fair and equitable.
It is noted that the net proceeds from investments of the Fund would be firstly be
distributed to the General Partner and limited partners of the Fund participated in such
investment on a prorate basis with reference to their respective capital contributions, and then
distributed to the General Partner and limited partners on different scales and percentage.
We have reviewed distribution policy of other funds which the Company formed with
other third parties and noted that while the distribution scale amongst general partners and the
limited partners may be different as compared to the Fund which was a result of arm’s length
negotiations between the general partners and limited partners of each fund, the distribution
model of the Fund is not peculiar. In addition, each of the general partners and limited partners
will receive the distributions on the same scales amongst themselves within their respective
rank with reference to their capital contributions to the funds. Accordingly, we consider the
distribution policy fair and reasonable.
The interest transfer policy set out above reflects common terms of funds of this type
which enhances the management control of the General Partner and the Ultimate General
Partner.
Based on the management and policies of the Fund discussed above, and the fact that
the Capital Commitment, if made to the Fund, economic benefits/return of the Company
would be levelled up to be the same as CCAH and well protected through the management and
distribution mechanism of the Fund, we are of the view that relevant terms of the Fund are
normal commercial terms and fair and reasonable.
IV.
The Fund and its proposed investment
(a)
Information on the Fund
Since the Fund fully realised its only invested property project in early 2013, the
Fund was dormant and did not make any investment until the entering into the Acquisition
Agreement by the Fund SPV on 5 November 2014. As such, the Fund is essentially a new fund
after the recent restructuring as set out in Section II in the “Letter from the Board”.
The Directors understood that the Fund has been in discussions with various parties and
is currently considering different investment opportunities of property projects that are in the
development stage or distressed and in special situations in the PRC. Save for the Acquisition
mentioned above, the Fund has not identified any suitable investment opportunities so far.

Net assets
For the year ended 31 December 2012, the Fund recorded net profit of approximately
USD46 million, due to the sale of a number of property units from its then only invested
property project in the PRC.
For the year ended 31 December 2013, the Fund recorded net loss of approximately
USD7.7 million, which was mainly attributed to the withholding tax incurred by the realisation
of such investment in early 2013. The Fund distributed a dividend of approximately HK$30.3
million to the Group, which represented a returned share capital of HK$2.7 million and a
distribution of HK$27.6 million.
(b)
Proposed investment by the Fund
On 5 November 2014, the Fund SPV (as purchaser) entered into the Acquisition
Agreement with SOL HK (as seller) pursuant to which the Fund SPV has conditionally agreed
to purchase, and SOL HK has conditionally agreed to sell, the entire equity interest of Target,
and SOL HK shall assign and procure Fame Gain to assign the Shareholder’s Loan of Target
Group to the Fund SPV at Acquisition Completion.
— 47 —
Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
Subject to adjustment, the total consideration payable by the Fund SP to SOL HK for the
Acquisition is USD463 million (equivalent to approximately RMB2,824.0 million), which was
determined after arm’s length negotiations between the parties to the Acquisition Agreement
with reference to, among others, the valuation of projects held by Target Group, unaudited
financial statements of Target Group as well as the principal amount of the Shareholder’s Loan
of Target Group of RMB2,603.3 million as at 30 September 2014.
Under the Acquisition Agreement, SOL HK has agreed to a comprehensive set of
warranties, including but not limited to those in respect the unaudited financial statements of
the Target Group as at 30 September 2014. These warranties shall be true, accurate and not
misleading at the date of the Acquisition Agreement, at Acquisition Completion and at all times
before Acquisition Completion. SOL HK has further agreed to indemnify the Fund SPV for any
losses, expenses or claims resulting from any breach of warranties by SOL HK. In addition, the
Fund SPV has been conducting its own legal and financial due diligence on the Target Group, a
satisfactory result of which is one of the conditions precedent to Acquisition Completion.
(c)
Information on the Target and the Target Group
According to the “Letter from the Board”, the Target is a company incorporated in the
British Virgin Islands on 28 August 2009 and is wholly owned by SOL HK. As at the Latest
Practicable Date, the Target Group held nine property projects located across seven cities in
the PRC, which are principally engaged in real estate development and property development
investment in the PRC. The Target also holds a business operation engaged in the provision of
upfitting and decoration services to the property projects.

The Target Group recorded revenue of approximately RMB4,467 million for the nine
months ended 30 September 2014 (nine months ended 30 September 2013: approximately
RMB2,449 million). Increase in revenue was mainly due to the increased delivered of property
units from Ocean Chanson Mansion (Shanghai) and Grand Canal Milestone (Hongzhou) and the
expansion of Sino-Ocean Decor during the period.
For the nine months ended 30 September 2014, the Target Group recorded gross profit of
approximately RMB20 million (nine months ended 30 September 2013: approximately RMB306
million). Decrease in gross profit was mainly due to inflated construction cost and the delivery
of property units from high land cost projects, including Ocean Chanson Mansion (Shanghai)
and Grand Canal Milestone (Hongzhou) during the period.
The Target Group recorded loss attributable to owners of Target of approximately
RMB143.8 million during the nine months ended 30 September 2014 (nine months ended 30
September 2013: profit of approximately RMB73.2 million). The loss was mainly due to the
decrease in gross profit of the projects as explained above.

Valuation of the Properties
Based on the valuation report prepared by DTZ Debenham Tie Leung Limited (the
“Valuer”) on the Properties as at 30 September 2014 as set out in Appendix IV to the Circular
(the “Valuation Report”), it is noted that the aggregate valuation of the Properties held by
the Target Group amounts to RMB20,836.0 million, of which attributable interest to SOL HK
amounts to RMB18,493.9 million.
We have discussed with the Valuer on the basis, assumptions and methodology of the
Valuation Report and noted that the Valuer had provided the market value of the Properties
using the direct comparison approach by making reference to comparable sale evidences as
available on the market.
The Valuer also stated in the Valuation Report that, given the nature of the property,
mostly being residential units, ancillary retail podium units and car parking spaces, sales
activities are frequent and thus sales evidence are readily available, the direct comparison
approach is considered appropriate and in line with market practice.
(g)
Consideration of the Acquisition
Subject to adjustment, total consideration payable by the Fund SPV to SOL HK for the
Acquisition is USD463 million (equivalent to approximately RMB2,824.3 million), which was
determined after arm’s length negotiations between the parties to the Acquisition Agreement
with reference to, among others, the valuation of projects held by the Target Group, unaudited
financial statements of Target Group as well as the principal amount of Shareholder’s Loan of
Target Group of RMB2,603.3 million as at 30 September 2014.
We understand from the Directors that subject to completion of the Acquisition, the
Shareholder’s Loan of Target Group will be assigned to the Fund SPV on a dollar to dollar
basis.
The implied consideration for the net asset value of the Target Group is approximately
RMB221 million (“Implied NAV Consideration”), which is calculated by deducting the
Shareholder’s Loan of Target Group of RMB2,603.3 million from the consideration of USD463
million (equivalent to approximately RMB2,824.3 million).
Based on the unaudited management account of the Target Group as at 30 September
2014, the net asset value of the Target Group is RMB619.1 million (which reflected the
carrying value of the Properties at RMB20,816.2 million and Shareholder’s Loan of Target
Group of RMB2,603.3 million), and net asset value of the Target Group attributable to SOL
HK is RMB208.0 million (“NAV Carrying Amount”).
Based on the NAV Carrying Amount of RMB208 million as at 30 September 2014 and
the Implied NAV Consideration of RMB221 million, the Implied NAV Consideration represents
a premium of approximately 6.25% or RMB13 million over the NAV Carrying Amount as
disclosed in the announcement of Sino-Ocean Land dated 5 November 2014.
— 52 —
Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
The net asset value of the Target Group attributable to SOL HK after adjustment of
the valuation gain of the Properties attributable to SOL HK of RMB100.4 million (which
represents the sum of the valuation gain or loss, where appropriate, of each of the Properties
attributable to SOL HK) amounts to approximately RMB308.4 million as at 30 September 2014
(“Adjusted NAV”). Based on the Implied NAV Consideration of RMB221 million, the Implied
NAV Consideration represents a discount of approximately 28.3% or RMB87.4 million to the
Adjusted NAV of the Target Group attributable to SOL HK.
Although the Acquisition does not constitute a transaction to the Company under the
Listing Rules, considering the intended use of the Capital Commitment, if were to be made to
the Fund, is for the Fund to complete the Acquisition from SOL HK of the Target, which held
the Properties, we had compiled a comparable table on consideration paid by other listed issuers
in property acquisitions based on a limited research we carried out on a best effort basis using
the following selection criteria: (i) acquisition of PRC properties by companies listed on the
Stock Exchange in the past three months from 18 August 2014 to 17 November 2014 (being the
date of the Announcement) (“Research Period”); and (ii) the valuation of the subject property
or the calculation of the adjusted net asset value of the target company taking into account the
valuation of the subject property(ies) was demonstrated in the circular of relevant transactions.
Transactions for acquiring property assets (i) which located in non-mainland PRC areas, such
as Hong Kong or overseas; or (ii) which located in mainland PRC areas, but relevant circular
has not set out valuation of subject property or calculation of adjusted net asset value of target
companies after taking into account valuation of the subject properties, are excluded in order
to make the comparable transactions more relevant and representative, and calculations more
accurate. We have identified and made references to 8 comparable transactions (“Comparable
Transactions”) which meet the aforesaid criteria, and consider these Comparable Transactions
exhaustive and representative. We have compared the considerations paid by listed companies
for these Comparable Transactions with the valuation of relevant PRC properties or net asset
value (“NAV”) or adjusted NAV of target companies holding relevant PRC properties. We did
not expand the Research Period to a longer course as we consider reasonable number of samples
are identified and recent transactions are more relevant for consideration as they closely
reflect market conditions and dynamics, including relevant administrative policies, of the PRC
property sector. Brief Summary of relevant information of the Comparable Transactions are set
out in Table-5 below:

A total of 8 Comparable Transactions were identified during the Research Period, and it
is noted that considerations paid by relevant companies for the Comparable Transactions were
either equal to or at a discount from 1% to 42.7% to the valuation or adjusted NAV of relevant
PRC properties, with average discount of 21.1%. The discount of 28.3% represented by the
Implied NAV Consideration to the Adjusted NAV of the Target Group attributable to SOL HK
is within the range of and above the average of the discount paid by listed companies for the
Comparable Transactions.
Our view
Having considered that: (i) the Fund is essentially a new fund after fully realised its
invested property project in early 2013 and was dormant and did not make any investment
until the entering into the Acquisition Agreement; (ii) the proposed investment by the Fund
is to acquire the Properties held by the Target Group through the Acquisition; (iii) the
— 54 —
Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
Adjusted NAV of the Target Group attributable to SOL HK after taking into account of the
valuation of the Properties is RMB308.4 million, (iv) the Shareholder’s Loan of Target Group
will be assigned to the Fund SPV on a dollar to dollar basis; and (v) the consideration of
the Acquisition represents a discount of 28.3% to the Adjusted NAV of the Target Group
attributable to SOL HK after taking into account of the Shareholder’s Loan of Target Group
and valuation of the Properties, which is in line with market Comparable Transactions, we
consider the proposed investment by the Fund to acquire the Target Group (which in turn held
the Properties) through the Acquisition at the consideration of USD463 million (equivalent to
approximately RMB2,824.0 million) fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders
are concerned and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
V.
Possible Financial Effects of the Second GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription
Agreement
As the Company holds 50% of the issued share capital of the JV Entities (being the Ultimate
General Partner and the Management Company), the Fund, the General Partner and the JV Entities are
not subsidiaries of the Company, and the financial results of the Fund will not be consolidated into
the Group but accounted for on equity basis.
(i)
Effects on net asset value and earnings
According to the Interim Report 2014, the unaudited net asset value of the Group was
approximately HK$508.3 million as at 30 June 2014.
Assuming the Capital Commitment (as proposed under the Second GP Amendment
Agreement and the Subscription Agreement) and the CPS are approved by the Shareholders,
after drawdown of the Capital Commitment by the Fund, the profit or loss of the Fund is equity
accounted for by the Group as interest in joint venture, and the net asset value of the Group is
expected to remain unchanged as the increase in interest in joint venture of USD253.95 million
(equivalent to approximately HK$1,969.97 million) is expected to be offset by the decrease in
bank balances and short-term deposits to the same amount.
Accordingly, the Capital Commitment will have no immediate material impact on the net
asset value of the Group as well as consolidated earnings of the Group.
(ii)
Effects on gearing
With reference to the Interim Report 2014, the interest-bearing borrowings and
gearing ratio of the Group was approximately HK$1,495.0 million and approximately 0.73
times (calculated based on interest-bearing borrowings over total assets) as at 30 June 2014
respectively.
If the Capital Commitment were to be funded by the proceeds from the issue of 1.3
billion CPS to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sino-Ocean Land, there will be no immediate
financial effect on the gearing of the Group.

Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
RECOMMENDATION
Having considered the principal factors analysed above, in particular that:
(i)
the Fund is intended to be jointly controlled by the Company and CCAH on equal basis
at each level of the Fund, General Partner and the Ultimate General Partner through
general partnership or limited partnership interest holding;
(ii) the Capital Commitment, if were to be made, will be contributed by Chance Bright
to the General Partner and the Fund which will enable the Company to maintain its
economic interests to be levelled up to be the same as CCAH on an equitable basis and
in proportion to its equity interest in the Ultimate General Partner;
(iii) the management and operation of the Fund shall be vested exclusively in the General
Partner, the management and operation of the General Partner shall be vested exclusively
in the Ultimate General Partner, and board of the Ultimate General Partner is structured
to be represented on equal basis by the Company and CCAH, which enable Chance
Bright to have proportionate management representation and control in line with its
equity interest in the Ultimate General Partner;
(iv) proceeds from investments of the Fund would be firstly be distributed to the General
Partner and limited partners of the Fund participated in such investment on a prorate
basis with reference to their respective capital contributions, and then distributed to
the General Partner and limited partners on different scales and percentage, and such
distribution model of the Fund is not peculiar;
(v)
the fact that the Capital Commitment, if made to the Fund, and economic benefits/return
for the Company would be levelled up to be the same as CCAH and well protected
through the management and distribution mechanism of the Fund, which is fair and
reasonable;
(vi) the proposed investment by the Fund is to acquire the Target Group (which held the
Properties) through the Acquisition, and the Implied NAV Consideration represents a
discount of 28.3% to the Adjusted NAV of the Target Group after taking into account
of the valuation of the Properties and assignment of the Shareholder’s Loan of Target
Group, which is within the range and above the average of the discounts as presented by
the Comparable Transactions; and
(vii) the Capital Commitment will have no immediate material impact on the net asset value,
earnings as well as gearing ratio of the Group if it were to be funded by the proceeds
from the CPS,
— 56 —
Letter from the Independent Financial Adviser
we concur with the Directors that the Capital Commitment could allow the Company to build
up a portfolio of properties (developed and developing) and land reserve through the Fund to
capture long-term development potential of the property market in the PRC through proactive
asset management and asset enhancement by the Fund and that the terms of each of the Second
GP Amendment Agreement and the Subscription Agreement and the amount of the Capital
Commitment are on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable so far as the Independent
Shareholders are concerned, and the entering into the Second GP Amendment Agreement,
the Subscription Agreement and the Capital Commitment and all transactions contemplated
thereunder are in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Company and are in the
interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
Accordingly, we recommend the Independent Board Committee to advise the Independent
Shareholders to vote in favour of the ordinary resolution(s) to be proposed at the EGM to approve
the Second GP Amendment Agreement, the Subscription Agreement, the Capital Commitment and all
transactions contemplated thereunder.
Yours faithfully,

Following completion of the Capital Commitment, the Group continues to engage in its four
existing business segments, namely property investments, securities investments, fund investments
and fund management business.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE GROUP
Set out below is the management discussion and analysis and other pertaining information on
the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2014 and each of the years ended 31 December 2013,
2012 and 2011 extracted (and modified as appropriate) from the Company’s interim report for the six
months ended 30 June 2014 and annual reports for each of the three years ended 31 December 2013,
2012 and 2011.

For the six months ended 30 June 2014
Review of results and operation
For the six months ended 30 June 2014 (the “Interim Period”), the Group recorded
total revenue of approximately HK$61,734,000 (for the six months ended 30 June 2013:
approximately HK$110,415,000). The decrease in revenue was mainly as a result of, among
other things, decrease in sales of gold bullions by approximately HK$51,116,000.
The Group recorded a loss attributable to owners of the Company of approximately
HK$18,027,000 (for the six months ended 30 June 2013: a profit of approximately

APPENDIX I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
4.1 HK cents for the six months ended 30 June 2014, versus basic earnings per share of
approximately 13.1 HK cents for the six months ended 30 June 2013. The decrease in basic
earnings per share was mainly attributable to the absence of an one-off gain of approximately
HK$45,667,000 from the disposal of a subsidiary recorded for the first half of 2013, decrease in
gain from share of results of joint ventures of approximately HK$25,336,000, and an increase
in finance cost of approximately HK$9,812,000 for the six months ended 30 June 2014 due to
the interest expenses arising from the unsecured and subordinated shareholder’s loan amounted
to HK$1,000 million (“Sino-Ocean Land Loan”) granted by a subsidiary of Sino-Ocean Land,
the controlling shareholder of the Company, in August 2013.

liabilities) at 15.51 times (31 December 2013: 1.56 times). Increase in current ratio was mainly
due to the decrease in short-term borrowings, as the Group renewed an existing bank loan
facility on 23 January 2014 of HK$500,000,000, which was originally repayable within 2014,
for a further three-year term. The Group adopts a prudent funding and treasury policy with

2017 (31 December 2013: in 2014) and bearing interest at floating rate. The average interest
rate for the bank borrowing as at 30 June 2014 is 2.49% (31 December 2013: 2.45%) per

1 January 2014 to 31 December 2014 as continued support to the Group for the implementation
of its investment strategy. The total amount of interest being waived for the period ended 30

Comments on segment information
Property investments
As at 30 June 2014, the Group’s investment properties comprised A-grade office
premises in Hong Kong and residential units in New York. Total rental income for the six
months ended 30 June 2014 amounted to approximately HK$5,039,000 (for the six months
ended 30 June 2013: approximately HK$6,719,000). Decrease in rental income was mainly
due to no rental income generated from PRC properties during the Interim Period as the Group
disposed of the entire issued share capital of a wholly-owned subsidiary, which owned certain
units in Shui On Plaza in Shanghai, the PRC, in the first half of 2013, though additional rental
income was generated by the office premise in prime location in Hong Kong acquired in June
2013.
In May 2014, our Group acquired 10 residential condominiums in the heart of
Manhattan’s financial district of New York for a total cash consideration of approximately
US$12,897,000. Details of such acquisition were disclosed in the announcement of the
Company dated 24 May 2014. In July 2014, our Group further entered into a sale and purchase
agreement with an independent third party for the purchase of 1 more residential unit in the
same condominium in New York as mentioned above for a total consideration of approximately
US$1,145,000. The acquisition was completed in August 2014.

APPENDIX I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
Securities and other investments
Securities and other investment portfolio formed part of our Group’s cash management
activities, and the management of our Group is pleased to maintain a scalable investment
portfolio with proper diversification to avoid the fluctuation of any single market.
Our Group recognised a total revenue from securities and other investments for the
Interim Period of approximately HK$44,622,000 (for the six months ended 30 June 2013:
approximately HK$98,413,000). Decrease in revenue was mainly due to decrease in sales of
gold bullions amounting to approximately HK$51,116,000. A loss from changes in fair value of
financial instruments held for trading of approximately HK$2,643,000 was recognised during
the Interim Period, as a result of the volatile market condition (for the six months ended 30
June 2013: a loss of approximately HK$7,648,000).
Fund investments
The carrying value of our fund investment portfolio as at 30 June 2014 amounted to
approximately HK$820,729,000 (31 December 2013: approximately HK$871,433,000). Fund
investments will enable our Group to diversify its investment risk through efficient access to a
wider variety of investment channels to which our Group may not have direct access. It is our
Group’s objective to grow its investment return by adopting a proactive but prudent approach
in its investments. No revenue or gain has yet been recognised from fund investments for the
Interim Period. Apart from other movement, decrease in fair value of fund investments was
mainly because an amount of HK$30,704,000 was charged to other comprehensive income for
the Interim Period as a result of a decrease in fair value of fund investments (for the period
ended 30 June 2013: Nil).
Fund Management
Revenue from fund management business of approximately HK$12,073,000 was recorded
during the Interim Period (for the six months ended 30 June 2013: HK$5,283,000). Increase in
revenue from fund management business resulted from more service fee received from our fund
management business.
Our Group recognised a gain of approximately HK$1,056,000 from share of results of
joint ventures for the Interim Period (for the six months ended 30 June 2013: HK$26,392,000).
Decrease in gain from share of results of joint ventures was mainly because our Group had
recognised dividend distribution from Sino Prosperity Real Estate Fund L.P., on disposal of its
interest in a property development project in Dalian, during the first half of 2013.

APPENDIX I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
Employee and remuneration policy
As at 30 June 2014, the total number of staff employed was 17 (31 December 2013:
16). During the Interim Period, taking into account the amortisation of share options of
approximately HK$3,192,000 (for the six months ended 30 June 2013: Nil), the level of
our overall staff cost was about HK$8,627,000 (for the six months ended 30 June 2013:
HK$3,470,000).
With a view to encouraging and rewarding contribution made by our staff, our Group
has adopted a share option scheme and believes that this will be an effective tool for achieving
this purpose. Our Group recruits and promotes individuals based on their performance and
development potentials in the positions offered. When formulating staff salary and benefit
policies, our Group gives primary consideration to their individual performance and prevailing
salary levels in the market.
Exchange rate exposure
During the Interim Period, our Group’s assets and liabilities were mainly denominated in
HKD, USD, Renminbi (“RMB”) and Australian Dollar (“AUD”). In the view of the potential
RMB and AUD exchange rate fluctuations, our Group will closely monitor the foreign currency
exchange risk exposure and will regularly review if any related hedging should be necessary.
Pledge of assets
As at 30 June 2014, our Group did not have any pledged assets.
Contingent liabilities
As at 30 June 2014, our Group had no significant contingent liabilities.
Material acquisitions and disposals
In January 2014, our Group made an investment in a direct interest in a property
development project in Melbourne, Australia, for a total consideration of approximately
AUD14,286,000, which gives a guaranteed pre-tax return of 8% per annum to control the risk
exposure of our Group.
In May 2014, our Group acquired 10 residential condominiums located in the heart of
Manhattan’s financial district, New York, for an aggregate consideration of approximately
US$12,897,000, which is expected to generate an annual rental yield of approximately 3.1%.

For the year ended 31 December 2013
Review of results and operation
During 2013, our Group recorded a total revenue of approximately HK$186,676,000
(2012: approximately HK$50,545,000). The rise in revenue was mainly due to increase in
sales of gold bullions and management fee income by approximately HK$119,568,000 and
HK$15,790,000, respectively.
The following table sets forth our Group’s revenue breakdown for 2013 and 2012:

During 2013, our Group recorded a profit attributable to owners of the Company of
approximately HK$39,153,000 (2012: approximately HK$6,645,000). Consequently, our Group
recorded basic earnings per share of 8.79 HK cents in 2013 versus 1.49 HK cents in 2012.
Significant increase in profit attributable to owners of the Company in 2013 was mainly as a
result of the gain on disposal of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company of approximately
HK$45,667,000 and the share of results of joint ventures of approximately HK$26,714,000,
offset by the increase in overall staff costs, taking into account of the share-based compensation
cost, of approximately HK$19,579,000 which mainly arose from the amortization of share
options granted during 2013 and decrease in gain arising from changes in fair value of financial
instruments held for trading of approximately HK$12,377,000.
Liquidity, financial resources and capital structure
Total assets and net asset value of our Group as at 31 December 2013 were
approximately HK$2,121,161,000 (2012: approximately HK$1,074,616,000) and approximately
HK$544,605,000 (2012: approximately HK$492,554,000), respectively.
On 15 August 2013, our Group entered into the Sino-Ocean Land Loan. Such loan will
definitely support our future business development.
As at 31 December 2013, our Group had total cash resources (including bank balances
and cash and short-term bank deposits) of approximately HK$715,343,000 (2012: approximately
HK$399,244,000) and the current ratio was 1.56 times (2012: 8.10 times). As at 23 January
2014, an existing bank loan facility of HK$500,000,000 of our Group has been renewed prior
to the date of its expiry for a further three-year term. We are confident that we have ample

A bank borrowing of HK$498,833,000 (2012: HK$496,833,000 under non-current
liabilities), which is unsecured, wholly repayable in 2014 and bearing interest at floating rates.
The average interest rate for the bank borrowing as at 31 December 2013 is 2.45% (2012:
2.26%) per annum. The bank borrowing is guaranteed by Sino-Ocean Land, the ultimate
holding company of the Group.
An entrusted loan of HK$50,876,000 (2012: HK$61,664,000) in the PRC provided
by Sino-Ocean Land Limited, a fellow subsidiary of the Group, which is unsecured, wholly
repayable within one year and bearing interest at fixed rates as at 31 December 2013. The
average interest rate for the entrusted loan as at 31 December 2013 is 7.34% (2012: 7.34%) per
annum.
In terms of net gearing ratio, calculated as total borrowings less cash resources divided
by total shareholders’ equity, our Group’s net gearing ratio increased from 0.32 times to
1.53 times as at 31 December 2013, which was attributable mainly to the utilisation of cash
resources from the Sino-Ocean Land Loan.

HK$31,940,000). Moreover, our Group recorded a gain from changes in fair value of financial
instruments held for trading of approximately HK$8,895,000, which include a realised gain
of about HK$4,544,000 (2012: about HK$7,181,000) and an unrealised gain of approximately

at 31 December 2013 amounted to approximately HK$206,568,000 (2012: approximately
HK$259,703,000). Decrease in the aforesaid carrying value was mainly because we realised
profit in last quarter of 2013, so as to reduce our exposure on securities investment.

subscription agreement with an independent third party to invest a minority interest with a

investment return by adopting a proactive but prudent approach in its investments. No revenue
has yet been recognised from fund investments segment during 2013. Changes in fair value
of fund investments, which were recorded as available-for-sale investments, of approximately
HK$9,868,000 was recognised in other comprehensive income in 2013.
Fund Management
Revenue from fund management business of approximately HK$18,711,000 was recorded
during 2013 (2012: approximately HK$2,921,000). Increase in revenue from fund management
business was due to our Group starting to receive revenue from this business segment only

APPENDIX I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
Our Group recognised a gain of approximately HK$26,714,000 from share of result
of joint ventures, which was mainly from dividend distribution from Sino Prosperity Real
Estate Fund L.P., on disposal of its interest in a property development project in Dalian, at a
consideration of approximately US$103,318,000 in March 2013.
Employee and remuneration policy
As at 31 December 2013, the total number of staff employed was 16 (2012: 24). The
decrease in the headcount was due to the fact that, after the Disposal during 2013, the scope
of our PRC business was further narrowed and accordingly the headcount in our PRC region
was reduced. During 2013, taking into account the expense arising from the amortisation of
share options, the level of our overall staff cost increased from about HK$7,838,000 to about
HK$27,417,000 in 2013.
With a view to encouraging and rewarding contribution made by our staff, our Group
has adopted a share option scheme (the “Scheme”) and believes that this will be an effective
tool. During 2013, our Group granted 35,400,000 share options under the Scheme to executive
and non-executive directors and certain other employees of the Group. Our Group recruits
and promotes individuals based on their performance and development potentials in the
positions offered. When formulating staff salary and benefit policies, our Group gives primary
consideration to their individual performance and prevailing salary levels in the market.
Exchange rate exposure
During 2013, our Group’s assets and liabilities were mainly denominated in HKD, USD,
RMB and Japanese Yan (“JPY”). In the view of the potential RMB and JPY exchange rate
fluctuations, our Group will closely monitor the foreign currency exchange risk exposure and
will regularly review if any related hedging should be necessary.
Pledge of assets
As at 31 December 2013, our Group did not have any pledged assets.
Contingent liabilities
As at 31 December 2013, our Group had no significant contingent liabilities.
Material acquisitions and disposals
In May 2013, our Group disposed of a subsidiary which owned certain units in Shui
On Plaza in Shanghai for a price of approximately RMB138,311,000. Such disposal reflected
our Group’s seizing opportunities to realise its property portfolio at good market prices and
provided funding for our Group towards other capital projects to capture opportunities with
higher return.

APPENDIX I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
Our Group has invested in several investments funds during 2013 with an aggregate
carrying value of approximately HK$856,221,000 as at 31 December 2013. The investment
scope of these funds mainly covers the areas of listed and unlisted securities, derivative
contracts, foreign exchange and commodities, and real estates and related investments in
developed countries, primarily in the United States of America, Europe and Australia. Those
investments funds are well managed by investment professionals with experiences and expertise
in capital market, real estate and private equity.
In January 2014, our Group has invested in a minority interest in a property development
project in Melbourne, Australia, for a total consideration of approximately HK$97,701,000.
Such investment has a guaranteed pre-tax return of 8% per annum which enable the Group to
control its investment risk exposure.

Review of results and operation
During 2012, our Group recorded a total revenue of approximately HK$50,545,000
(2011: approximately HK$67,363,000) and a profit attributable to owners of the Company
of approximately HK$6,645,000 (2011: a loss of approximately HK$18,699,000). A profit
recorded in our Group during the financial year ended 31 December 2012 was mainly due to
the gain arising from changes in the fair value of financial instruments held for trading of
approximately HK$21,272,000 and rental income on investment properties of approximately
HK$11,855,000, offset by the finance costs of approximately HK$16,682,000 from our
borrowings. Consequently, our Group recorded earnings per share of 1.49 HK cents in 2012
versus losses per share of 4.20 HK cents in 2011.
Liquidity, financial resources and capital structure
As at 31 December 2012, the cash and cash equivalents of our Group amounted to
approximately HK$399,244,000 (2011: approximately HK$274,489,000). The larger amount
of cash level as at the end of 2012 was due to disposal of some of our securities investment
in order to crystalise our gain. The Group adopts a prudent funding and treasury policy with
regard to its overall business operations.
The borrowing of the Group under current liabilities represents an entrusted loan in
the PRC provided by Sino-Ocean Land Limited, a fellow subsidiary of the Group, which is
unsecured, wholly repayable in May 2013 and bearing interest at fixed rates. The average
interest rate for the entrusted loan as at 31 December 2012 is 7.34% (2011: Nil) per annum.
The borrowing of the Group and the Company under non-current liabilities represents
bank borrowing, which is unsecured, wholly repayable in 2014 and bearing interest at floating
rates. The average interest rate for the bank borrowing as at 31 December 2012 is 2.26%
(2011: 2.69%) per annum. The bank borrowing is guaranteed by Sino-Ocean Land, the
ultimate holding company of the Group. The net gearing ratio (total net debt divided by total
shareholders’ equity) of our Group as at 31 December 2012 was 0.32 times (2011: 0.46 times).

HK$558,002,000 (2011: approximately HK$618,965,000) respectively. The current ratio of our
Group as at 31 December 2012 was approximately 8.1 times (2011: approximately 4.2 times).
The net asset value of our Group as at 31 December 2012 was approximately HK$492,554,000
(31 December 2011: approximately HK$488,124,000).
With our improvement in financial strength, together with the resources on hand, our
Group is ready for deploying our resources to capture opportunities in 2013.
Comments on segment information
Property investments
Total rental income for 2012 amounted to approximately HK$11,855,000 (2011:
approximately HK$12,272,000), representing a decrease of approximately HK$417,000. The
decrease was attributed to our Group’s disposal of the shares of a non-wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company, Klendo Limited, which held certain units in Novel Building in Shanghai in
2011, while the newly acquired investment properties were mostly completed in the second
quarter 2012 and hence their actual contribution towards rental income will only be reflected in
the second half of 2012.
Subsequent to the year end, on 8 February 2013, the Company entered into a sale and
purchase agreement with an independent third party to dispose of the entire issued share capital
in a directly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Trendex Investment Limited, which held
Units 1501-1512 on the 15th floor of Shui On Plaza in Shanghai, PRC as mentioned above, at
an aggregate consideration of approximately RMB138,000,000 (equivalent to approximately
HK$171,000,000) (subject to adjustments under the sale and purchase agreement). Subject
to fulfillment (or, where applicable, waiver) of the conditions under the sale and purchase
agreement, the disposal is expected to be completed within twelve months from the date of the
sale and purchase agreement.
Our Group will remain focus on this business segment and will continue to keep
searching for good property investment opportunities.
Securities and other investments
Our Group recognised a total revenue for 2012 of about HK$35,769,000 (2011:
about HK$55,091,000) from securities investment which included dividend income about
HK$3,829,000 (2011: about HK$600,000) and revenue from sales of gold bullions about
HK$31,940,000 (2011: about HK$54,491,000). On the other hand, gain from the trading of
our financial instruments held for trading for 2012 was about HK$7,181,000 (2011: about
HK$13,776,000). Our Group also recorded an unrealised holding gain of approximately
HK$14,091,000 (2011: a loss of approximately HK$5,581,000) from the fair value changes of
our remaining securities portfolio during 2012.
— I-12 —
APPENDIX I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
The market value of our investment portfolio as at 31 December 2012 amounted to
approximately HK$270,262,000 (2011: HK$559,809,000). The decrease in our total investment
portfolio was mainly because our Group reduced its exposure on the US Treasury Bill in
view that the return (including the coupon) from the US Treasury Bill during 2012 was not as
attractive as the case in the last quarter of 2011. The management of our Group is pleased to
maintain a scalable investment portfolio with proper diversification to avoid the fluctuation of
any single market. With about HK$399,244,000 in cash and bank balances as at 31 December
2012, we believe that we have the capacity to upsize our investment portfolio when market
opportunity arises.
Employee and remuneration policy
As at 31 December 2012, the total number of staff employed was 24 (2011: 19). The
increase in the total number of staff was in line with our target to make steady growth of the
core business segments of our Group.
Our Group recruits and promotes individuals based on their performance and development
potentials in the positions offered. When formulating staff salary and benefit policies, our
Group gives primary consideration to their individual performance and prevailing salary levels
in the market. With a view to encouraging and rewarding contribution made by our staff, our
Group has adopted a share option scheme and believes that this will be an effective tool for
achieving this purpose.
Exchange rate exposure
During 2012, our Group’s assets and liabilities were mainly denominated in HKD,
USD and RMB. As HKD is pegged with USD and our RMB exposure mainly comes from our
investment properties in the PRC, while RMB remains stable against USD, the Board does
not consider that our Group is exposed to any significant foreign currency exchange risk. The
Board will closely monitor the foreign currency exchange risk exposure and will regularly
review if any related hedging should be necessary.
Pledge of assets
As at 31 December 2012, our Group pledged equity securities listed on the Hong
Kong Stock Exchange and New York Stock Exchange with market value of approximately
HK$65,905,000 (2011: Nil) and bank balances of approximately HK$21,210,000 (2011: Nil) to
a bank to secure credit facilities granted to the Group. None of the credit facilities was utilised
by the Group as at 31 December 2012.
Contingent liabilities
As at 31 December 2012, our Group had no significant contingent liabilities.
— I-13 —
APPENDIX I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
Material acquisitions and disposals
Considering that the rental income growth of our property in the PRC has been lagging
behind the market growth, and given that the commercial property market is getting better in
the PRC, the Company entered into a sale and purchase agreement to dispose of its directly
wholly-owned subsidiary which held our property in the PRC, Shui On Plaza, in February 2013
in order to help provide funding to our Group to support future property-related investments
and to capture property investment opportunities with higher return.
Fund management business began to crystalise in 2012, including the result from the
Fund, through a share of result on joint venture. Revenue from fund management business
increased to HK$2,921,000 (2011: Nil) and share of profit from joint venture increased to
HK$2,184,000 (2011: HK$1,006,000). Our Group anticipates that fund management business
will continue to grow. Moreover, our Group has a positive view on the longterm outlook for
the PRC and believes that the PRC market offers ample investment opportunities. Therefore our
Group will continuously endeavor to seek for other property-related investment opportunities in
the PRC so as to further broaden its income base.

For the year ended 31 December 2011
Review of results and operation
During 2011, our Group recorded a total revenue of approximately HK$12,872,000
(2010: approximately HK$18,727,000) and a loss attributable to owners of the Company of
approximately HK$18,699,000 (2010: approximately HK$29,490,000). A loss was recorded
mainly due to the one-off loss of approximately HK$27,994,000 (excluding approximately
HK$12,689,000 recognised from the reclassification from translation reserve upon disposal)
arising from the restructuring cost of our Group to clean up investment properties with
relatively low return. In addition, our Group recorded a one-off expense for employee
share option of approximately HK$5,579,000 and the relevant one-off professional fee of
approximately HK$2,156,000 incurred in connection with the two aforesaid transactions in
2011. As a result, our Group recorded a loss per share of 4.20 HK cents in 2011 versus a loss
per share of 5.76 HK cents in 2010.
Nevertheless, excluding the above one-off items, a profit before taxation of
approximately HK$6,513,000 and a profit attributable to owners of the Company of
approximately HK$4,341,000 would be recorded in 2011 from our continuing operation.
Therefore, the management remains optimistic towards our existing operation.
Liquidity, financial resources and capital structure
As at 31 December 2011, the cash and short term bank deposits of our Group amounted
to approximately HK$274,489,000 (2010: approximately HK$128,471,000). The Group adopts a
prudent funding and treasury policy with regard to its overall business operations.

APPENDIX I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

bank in Hong Kong in August 2011 and bearing interest at floating rates. The average interest
rate for the Group and the Company as at 31st December, 2011 is 2.69% per annum. As at

Group as at 31 December 2011 was approximately HK$488,124,000 (2010: approximately

During 2011, our Group disposed the shares of a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company,

— I-15 —
APPENDIX I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
Subject to completion of the above acquisitions, these newly added investment properties
will start contributing rental income to our Group in 2012.
Securities and other investments
Gain from the trading of our financial assets for 2011 was about HK$11,932,000
(2010: about HK$2,030,000). On the other hand, our Group recorded a loss of approximately
HK$3,850,000 (2010: gain of HK$7,425,000) from the fair value changes of our securities
portfolio during 2011. Therefore the securities investment segment generates a net gain of
HK$8,082,000 in 2011.
The market value of our investment portfolio as at 31 December 2011 amounted to
approximately HK$559,809,000 (2010: HK$85,563,000). With about HK$274,489,000 in cash
and bank balances as at 31 December 2011, we believe that we have the capacity to upsize our
investment portfolio when market opportunity arises.
Employee and remuneration policy
As at 31 December 2011, the total number of staff employed by our Group was 19 (2010:
10). The increase in the total number of staff was in line with our Group’s growing business
in the second half of 2011. Staff cost, including expense recorded for employee share option,
of the on-going operation was approximately HK$8,348,000 for 2011 (2010: approximately
HK$8,428,000), being controlled at a reasonable level.
Our Group recruits and promotes individuals based on their performance and development
potentials in the positions offered. When formulating staff salary and benefit policies, our
Group gives primary consideration to their individual performance and prevailing salary levels
in the market. With a view to encouraging and rewarding contribution made by our staff, our
Group has adopted a share option scheme during 2011 and believes that this scheme will be an
effective tool for achieving this purpose.
Exchange rate exposure
During 2011, our Group’s assets and liabilities were mainly denominated in HKD,
USD and RMB. As HKD is pegged with USD and our RMB exposure mainly comes from our
investment in the PRC, while RMB is appreciating against USD, the Board does not consider
that our Group is exposed to any significant foreign currency exchange risk. The Board will
closely monitor the foreign currency exchange risk exposure and will regularly review if any
related hedging should be necessary.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
Contingent liabilities
As at 31 December 2011, our Group had no significant contingent liabilities.
Material acquisitions and disposals
During 2011, the Group disposed of one of our investment properties in Shanghai, Novel
Building, at a consideration of HK$137,000,000. The transaction was completed in July 2011.
The disposal not only enabled the Group to restructure our property investment portfolio to
clean up investment properties with low returns, but also helped recoup cash to the Group to
support its future property-related investments and to capture property investment opportunities
which may arise in the property market of the PRC and Hong Kong in 2012.
In order to expand our foothold in the property investment sector and to capture property
investment opportunities that may arise from the turbulent real estate market in the PRC, in the
second half of 2011, the Group established a property investment fund, the Fund, with SOL
HK and KKR SPRE, which will act as one of the vehicles for the Group to invest in certain
property investment projects in the PRC and to expand the Group’s revenue source from our
existing property investment segment. The Board believes that through participation in the
Fund, the Group can leverage the expertise of Sino-Ocean Land in the property development
sector in the PRC and the fund management experience of KKR SPRE to generate higher
returns from property investment projects. The Board expects that the Fund will start to
contribute profits to the Group in 2012.
The Group believes that scarcity in the supply of Grade-A offices in Hong Kong will
continue in 2012. Therefore, we believe that the return of the commercial property market in
Hong Kong will remain healthy in the long run. As a result, the Group entered into agreements
to acquire certain units with a total gross floor area of approximately 3,203 square feet in
Tower Two, Lippo Centre, No. 89 Queensway, Hong Kong in November 2011, and a total gross
floor area of approximately 2,930 square feet in China Merchants Tower, Shun Tak Centre,
168-200 Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong in February 2012. The Group considers that
these investment properties would generate stable rental income and provide potential capital
appreciation for the Group. Completion of the acquisition of these units is expected to be in the
first half of 2012.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
A review consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially
less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and
consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant
matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on the
Corresponding Financial Information.
Based on our review, for the purpose of this report, nothing has come to our attention that

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Significant accounting policies
(a)
Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International
Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”), which collective term includes International Accounting
Standards (“IASs”) and related interpretation issued by the International Accounting Standards Board
(“IASB”). Further details of the significant accounting policies adopted are set out in Section B.
The IASB has issued a number of new IFRSs and amendments to IFRSs. For the purpose of
preparing this Financial Information, the Fund has adopted all applicable new IFRSs and amendments to
IFRSs to the Relevant Periods, except for any new standards or interpretations that are not yet effective
for the Relevant Periods. The revised and new accounting standards and interpretations issued but not
yet effective for the accounting periods for the Relevant Periods are set out in note 17.
The Financial Information also complied with the applicable disclosure requirements of the Hong
Kong Companies Ordinance, which for the Relevant Periods continue to be those of the predecessor
Companies Ordinance (Cap. 32) in accordance with transitional and saving arrangements for Part 9 of the
new Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622), “Accounts and Audit”, which are set out in sections
76 to 87 of Schedule 11 to that Ordinance. The Financial Information also complied with the applicable
disclosure provisions of the Listing Rules.
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in
the Financial Information.
The Corresponding Financial Information for the eight months ended 31 August 2013 has been
prepared in accordance with the same basis and accounting policies adopted in respect of the Financial
Information.
(b)
Basis of preparation and presentation
The Financial Information comprises the Fund and its subsidiaries and has been prepared on a
consolidated basis.
Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised profit or loss arising from intragroup transactions, are eliminated in preparing the Financial Information of the Fund. Unrealised losses
resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains but only to the
extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
There were no transactions between the Fund and the Company during the Relevant Periods.
(c)
Basis of measurement
The Financial Information is presented in United States Dollars, rounded to the nearest thousand
unless otherwise indicated. The measurement basis used in the preparation of the Financial Information
is the historical cost basis.
— II-11 —
APPENDIX II
(d)
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of Financial Information in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make
judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical
experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to
accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects
only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current
and future periods.
Judgements made by management in the application of IFRSs that have significant effect on the
Financial Information and major sources of estimation uncertainty are discussed in note 16.
(e)
Subsidiaries and non-controlling interests
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Fund. The Fund controls an entity when it is exposed,
or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those
returns through its power over the entity. When assessing whether the Fund has power, only substantive
rights (held by the Fund and other parties) are considered.
An investment in a subsidiary is consolidated into the Financial Information from the date that
control commences until the date that control ceases. Intra-group balances, transactions and cash flows
and any unrealised profits arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full in preparing the
Financial Information. Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in the
same way as unrealised gains but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
Non-controlling interests represent the equity in a subsidiary not attributable directly or indirectly
to the Fund, and in respect of which the Fund has not agreed any additional terms with the holders of
those interests which would result in the Fund as a whole having a contractual obligation in respect of
those interests that meets the definition of a financial liability. For each business combination, the Fund
can elect to measure any non-controlling interests either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests
proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net identifiable assets.
Non-controlling interests are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within
equity, separately from equity attributable to the partners of the Fund. Non-controlling interests in the
results of the Fund are presented on the face of the consolidated income statement and the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income as an allocation of the total profit or loss and total comprehensive
income for the year between non-controlling interests and the partners of the Fund. Loans from holders
of non-controlling interests and other contractual obligations towards these holders are presented as
financial liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position in accordance with note 2(i).
Changes in the Fund’s interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are
accounted for as equity transactions, whereby adjustments are made to the amounts of controlling and
non-controlling interests within consolidated equity to reflect the change in relative interests, but no
adjustments are made to goodwill and no gain or loss is recognised.
When the Fund loses control of a subsidiary, it is accounted for as a disposal of the entire
interest in that subsidiary, with a resulting gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss.
— II-12 —
APPENDIX II
(f)
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Joint venture
A joint venture is an arrangement whereby the Fund and other parties contractually agree to share
control of the arrangement, and have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
An investment in a joint venture is accounted for in the consolidated financial statements under
the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost, adjusted for any
excess of the Fund’s share of the acquisition-date fair values of the investee’s identifiable net assets over
the cost of the investment (if any). Thereafter, the investment is adjusted for the post-acquisition change
in the Fund’s share of the investee’s net assets and any impairment loss relating to the investment
(see note 2(g)). Any acquisition-date excess over cost, the Fund’s share of the post-acquisition, posttax results of the investees and any impairment losses for the year are recognised in the consolidated
income statement, whereas the Fund’s share of the post-acquisition post-tax items of the investees’ other
comprehensive income is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
When the Fund’s share of losses exceeds its interest in the joint venture, the Fund’s interest
is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Fund
has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the investee. For these
purposes, the Fund’s interest is the carrying amount of the investment under the equity method together
with the Fund’s long-term interests that in substance form part of the Fund’s net investment in the joint
venture.
Unrealised profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Fund and its joint venture
are eliminated to the extent of the Fund’s interest in the investee, except where unrealised losses provide
evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred, in which case they are recognised immediately in
profit or loss.
If an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or vice versa, retained
interest is not remeasured. Instead, the investment continues to be accounted for under the equity
method.
In all other cases, when the Fund ceases to have joint control over a joint venture, it is accounted
for as a disposal of the entire interest in that investee, with a resulting gain or loss being recognised
in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former investee at the date when joint control is lost is
recognised at fair value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial
asset.
(g)
Impairment of assets
Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at the end of each reporting period
to identify indications that the interest in a joint venture and interest in a subsidiary (except for those
classified as held for sale) may be impaired or an impairment loss previously recognised no longer exists
or may have decreased.
If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.
(i)
Calculation of recoverable amount
The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its fair value less costs of disposal
and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their
present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time
value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows
largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the
smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e. a cash-generating unit).
— II-13 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(ii)
Recognition of impairment losses
An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss if the carrying amount of an asset, or
the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, exceeds its recoverable amount.
(iii)
Reversals of impairment losses
An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates
used to determine the recoverable amount.
A reversal of impairment loss is limited to the asset’s carrying amount that would have
been determined had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years. Reversals of impairment
losses are credited to profit or loss in the period in which the reversals are recognised.
(h)Receivables
Receivables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter at amortised cost using the
effective interest method, less allowance for impairment of doubtful debts, except where the receivables
are interest-free loans made to related parties without any fixed repayment terms or the effect of
discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less allowance for
impairment of doubtful debts.
Impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts are recognised when there is objective evidence of
impairment and are measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and
the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate where the effect
of discounting is material. Objective evidence of impairment includes observable data that comes to the
attention of the Fund about events that have an impact on the asset’s estimated future cash flows such as
significant financial difficulty of the debtor.
Impairment losses for trade debtors included within receivables whose recovery is considered
doubtful but not remote are recorded using an allowance account. When the Fund is satisfied that
recovery is remote, the amount considered irrecoverable is written off against trade debtors directly and
any amounts held in the allowance account relating to that debt are reversed. Subsequent recoveries of
amounts previously charged to the allowance account are reversed against the allowance account. Other
changes in the allowance account and subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off directly
are recognised in profit or loss.
(i)Payables
Payables are initially recognised at fair value and are subsequently stated at amortised cost unless
the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
(j)
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand, demand deposits with banks and
other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into
known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been
within three months of maturity at acquisition.
— II-14 —
APPENDIX II
(k)
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Income tax
Income tax for the period comprises current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and
liabilities. Current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised in profit or
loss except to the extent that they relate to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly
in equity, in which case the relevant amounts of tax are recognised in other comprehensive income or
directly in equity, respectively.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates
enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period, and any adjustment to tax payable in
respect of previous years.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from deductible and taxable temporary differences
respectively, being the differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets also arise from unused tax losses and unused
tax credits. Apart from differences which arise on initial recognition of assets and liabilities, all deferred
tax liabilities, and all deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will
be available against which the asset can be utilised, are recognised.
The amount of deferred tax recognised is measured based on the expected manner of realisation
or settlement of the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively
enacted at the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
(l)
Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognised for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Fund has a legal
or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time
value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to
settle the obligation.
Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount
cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of
outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by
the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities
unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.
(m)
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Provided it
is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Fund and the revenue and costs, if applicable,
can be measured reliably, interest income is recognised in profit or loss as it accrues using the effective
interest method.
(n)
Translation of foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions during the period are translated at the foreign exchange rates ruling
at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated
at the foreign exchange rates ruling at the end of the reporting period. Exchange gains and losses are
recognised in profit or loss.
Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign
currency are translated using the foreign exchange rates ruling at the transaction dates.
— II-15 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
The results of foreign operations are translated into United States dollars (“USD”) at the
exchange rates approximating the foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates of the transactions.
Statement of financial position items are translated at the closing foreign exchange rates at the end of the
reporting period. The resulting exchange difference are recognised in other comprehensive income and
accumulated separately in equity in the exchange reserve.
On disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences relating to
that foreign operation is reclassified from equity to profit or loss when the profit or loss on disposal is
recognised.
(o)
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an
asset which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are
capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which
they are incurred.
The capitalisation of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when
expenditure for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are
necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation of borrowing
costs is suspended or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset
for its intended use or sale are interrupted or complete.

Accounting judgement and estimates
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience
and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances. The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgements and other uncertainties
affecting application of those policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions
and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing the Financial Information. The principal
accounting policies are set forth in note 2. The Fund believes the following critical accounting policies
involve the significant judgements and estimates used in the preparation of the Financial Information.
(a)
Impairment losses on interest in a joint venture
Interest in a joint venture is reviewed periodically to assess whether impairment losses exist. The
Fund makes judgements as to whether there is any objective evidence that the interest in a joint venture
is impaired. If the Fund as determined, based on their judgement, that objective evidence of impairment
exists, expected future cash flows are estimated based on historical loss experience for assets with credit
risk characteristics similar to those of the Fund. Historical loss experience is adjusted on the basis of
the current observable data. Management reviews the methodology and assumptions used in estimating
future cash flows regularly to reduce any difference between loss estimates and actual loss experience.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
METRO SPLENDID LIMITED
Accountant’s Report
The following is the text of a report received from PricewaterhouseCoopers, Certified Public
Accountants, Hong Kong, for the purpose of incorporation in this circular.
13 December 2014
The Directors
Gemini Investments (Holdings) Limited
Dear Sirs,
We report on the financial information of Metro Splendid Limited (the “Target”) and its
subsidiaries (together, the “Target Group”), which comprises the combined balance sheets of the
Target as at 31 December 2011, 2012 and 2013, and the combined income statements, the combined
statements of comprehensive income, the combined statements of changes in equity and the combined
cash flow statements of the Target for each of the years ended 31 December 2011, 2012 and 2013
(the “Relevant Periods”) and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information. This financial information has been prepared by the directors of Gemini Investments
(Holdings) Limited (the “Company”) and is set out in Sections I to III below for inclusion in
Appendix II to the circular of the Company dated 13 December 2014 (the “Circular”) in connection
with the proposed acquisition of the Target by the Company (the “Transaction”).
The Target was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on 28 August 2009 as a limited
liability company. Pursuant to a group reorganization as described in Note 1 (b) of Section II headed
“Reorganization” below, which was completed on 31 October 2014, the Target became the holding
company of the subsidiaries now comprising the Target Group (the “Reorganization”).
As at the date of this report, the Target has direct and indirect interests in the subsidiaries as
set out in Note 8 of Section II below. All of these companies are private companies or, if incorporated
or established outside Hong Kong, have substantially the same characteristics as a Hong Kong
incorporated private company.
No audited financial statements have been prepared by the Target as it has not involved in any
significant business transactions since its date of incorporation, other than the Reorganization. The
audited financial statements of the other companies now comprising the Target Group as at the date
of this report for which there are statutory audit requirements have been prepared in accordance with
the relevant accounting principles generally accepted in their place of incorporation. The details of
the statutory auditors of these companies are set out in Note 8 of Section II below.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION
1.
Group structure, reorganization and principal activities
(a)
General information
Metro Splendid Limited (the “Target”) was incorporated with limited liability in the British
Virgin Islands on 28 August 2009. The address of its registered office is P.O. Box 957, Offshore
Incorporations Centre, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands.
The Target, being an investment holding company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to
as the “Target Group”) are principally engaged in property development and upfitting services in the
People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). At the date of this report and during the Relevant Periods, the
ultimate holding company of the Target Group is Sino-Ocean Land Holding Limited (the “SOLH”), a
company incorporated in Hong Kong with its shares listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of
Hong Kong Limited.
The combined financial statements are presented in Renminbi (“RMB”), unless otherwise stated.
(b)Reorganization
Prior to the Reorganization and during the Relevant Periods, the property development and the
upfitting services of the Target Group were conducted through nine real estate project companies and
one decoration company, respectively, all of which were incorporated in the PRC. At the date of this
report, the Target indirectly holds these ten companies through three investment holding companies. The
Target Group was ultimately controlled by the SOLH during the Relevant Periods.
Moral (HK) Investment Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Target, is the holding
company of Dalian Hongze Property Development Company Limited (“Dalian Hongze”) and Dalian
Xinrong Property Development Company Limited. Blue Team Trading Limited (“Blue Team”), another
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Target, has indirectly held the entire equity interest of Dalian Yuanjia
Industrial Park Development Company Limited (“Dalian Yuanjia”) during the Relevant Periods through
Dynamic Linkage Limited, a holding company (collectively referred to as the “Blue Team Group”).
Pursuant to the Reorganization in preparation for the proposed acquisition, the Target acquired all other
companies now comprising the Target Group from the SOLH’s subsidiaries and disposed of the Blue
Team Group to a subsidiary of the SOLH. The major steps undertaken to effect the Reorganization were
as follows:
(i)
On 20 October 2014, Dalian Hongze set up a wholly-owned subsidiary, Beijing Shengjia Hongze
Investment Management Company Limited (“Beijing Hongze”).
(ii)
On 27 October 2014, Beijing Hongze acquired the entire equity interest in Beijing Yuanhui
Property Development Company Limited (“Beijing Yuanhui”) from Beijing Yuankun Real Estate
Development Company Limited (“Beijing Yuankun”), which was indirectly controlled by the
SOLH. Beijing Yuanhui held a 55% equity interest in Sino-Ocean Land (Zhenjiang) Company
Limited during the Relevant Periods. Prior to and shortly after this acquisition, Beijing Yuanhui
completed a series of transactions and became the holding company of seven subsidiaries of the
Target Group, details of which are set out in (iii) to (vi) below.
(iii)
On 23 October 2014, Beijing Yuanhui acquired the entire equity interest of Qinhuangdao Ocean
Land Development Company Limited (“Qinhuangdao Ocean Land”) from Beijing Yuankun.
Qinhuangdao Ocean Land held the entire equity interest in Qinhuangdao Yuanlian Property
Development Company Limited and Qinhuangdao Yuanhao Property Development Company
Limited.

APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(iv)
On 29 October 2014, Beijing Yuanhui acquired the entire equity interest of Shanghai Yuanzheng
Property Development Company Limited from Sino-Ocean Land (Shanghai) Company Limited,
which was indirectly controlled by the SOLH.
(v)
On 29 October 2014 and 31 October 2014, Beijing Yuanhui acquired the entire equity interest
of Shanghai Yuanxin Property Development Company Limited and Sino-Ocean Decoration
Engineering Company Limited, respectively, from Beijing Yuanqian Property Development
Company Limited, which was indirectly controlled by the SOLH.
(vi)
On 31 October 2014, Beijing Yuanhui acquired a 70% equity interest of Hangzhou Yuan Yang
Lai Fu Real Estate Development Company Limited from Sino-Ocean Land Limited, a whollyowned subsidiary of the SOLH.
(vii)
On 21 October 2014, the Target disposed of the entire equity interest of the Blue Team Group to
Sino-Ocean Land (Hong Kong) Limited, an immediate shareholder of the Target and a whollyowned subsidiary of the SOLH.
As at the date of this report, the Target has direct and indirect interests in the subsidiaries, which are set
out in Note 8 below.
2.
Basis of presentation
Prior to and following the Reorganization, all the businesses carried out by the companies comprising
the Target Group are ultimately controlled by the SOLH. Accordingly, the Reorganization has been accounted
for as business combinations under common control using merger accounting.
For the purpose of this report, the combined Financial Information of the Target Group has been
prepared using the principles of merger accounting, as prescribed in Hong Kong Accounting Guidance 5
“Merger Accounting for Common Control Combinations” issue by the HKICPA. Accordingly, the Target
Group’s combined balance sheets as at 31 December 2011, 2012 and 2013, and its combined income statements,
combined statements of comprehensive income, combined statements of changes in equity and combined cash
flow statements for the Relevant Periods have been prepared using the financial information of the companies
now comprising the Target Group as if the current group structure had been in existence since 1 January 2011,
or since their respective dates of incorporation/establishment.
The financial information of the Blue Team Group has been included in the combined Financial
Information of the Target Group as they are being disposed of subsequent to 31 December 2013.
3.
Summary of significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Financial Information are set out
below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the relevant years presented, unless otherwise stated.
3.1
Basis of preparation
The Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting
Standards (“HKFRS”). They have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The preparation of the Financial Information in conformity with HKFRS requires the use of
certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process
of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment
or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the combined financial
statements, are disclosed in Note 5.
— II-37 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
As at 31 December 2013, the Target Group’s total liabilities exceeded total equity exclusive
of non-controlling interest by 23 times and the Target Group’s gearing ratio was 87%, which created
doubt about the Target Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The directors of the Target have
prepared cash flow projections by taking into account the financial resources available to the Target
Group, mainly including cash generated from operating activities. Moreover, other borrowings from
a fellow subsidiary amounting to RMB6,752,013,000 (see Note 19(b)) were replaced by long term
entrusted loans as a result of an agreement reached between the Target Group and a subsidiary of SOLH
after 31 December 2013 (see Note 33). Taking these into account, the directors of the Company believe
that the Target Group will have sufficient financial resources for its operations in the next twelve
months from 31 December 2013. Consequently the directors of the Company have prepared the Financial
Information on a going concern basis.
3.2
New and amended standards and interpretations not yet adopted
The following new standard has been issued but is not effective for the financial year beginning
1 January 2014 and has not been early adopted:
HKFRS 9, “Financial instruments”, addresses the classification, measurement and recognition
of financial assets and financial liabilities. HKFRS 9 was issued in November 2009 and October 2010
and amended in July 2014. It replaces the whole of HKAS 39. HKFRS 9 has three financial asset
classification categories for investments in debt instruments: amortized cost, fair value through other
comprehensive income (“OCI”) and fair value through profit or loss. Classification is driven by the
entity’s business model for managing the debt instruments and their contractual cash flow characteristics.
Investments in equity instruments are always measured at fair value. However, management can make
an irrevocable election to present changes in fair value in OCI, provided the instrument is not held for
trading. If the equity instrument is held for trading, changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss.
For financial liabilities there are two classification categories: amortized cost and fair value through
profit or loss. Where non-derivative financial liabilities are designated at fair value through profit or
loss, the changes in the fair value due to changes in the liability’s own credit risk are recognized in
OCI, unless such changes in fair value would create an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, in which
case, all fair value movements are recognized in profit or loss. There is no subsequent recycling of the
amounts in OCI to profit or loss. For financial liabilities held for trading (including derivative financial
liabilities), all changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss.
HKFRS 9 introduces a new model for the recognition of impairment losses – the expected credit
losses (ECL) model, which constitutes a change from the incurred loss model in HKAS 39. HKFRS 9
contains a “three stage” approach, which is based on the change in credit quality of financial assets since
initial recognition. Assets move through the three stages as credit quality changes and the stages dictate
how an entity measures impairment losses and applies the effective interest rate method. The new rules
mean that on initial recognition of a non-credit impaired financial asset carried at amortised cost a day1 loss equal to the 12-month ECL is recognised in profit or loss. In the case of accounts receivables
this day-1 loss will be equal to their lifetime ECL. Where there is a significant increase in credit risk,
impairment is measured using lifetime ECL rather than 12-month ECL.
HKFRS 9 applies to all hedging relationships, with the exception of portfolio fair value hedges of
interest rate risk. The new guidance better aligns hedge accounting with the risk management activities
of an entity and provides relief from the more “rule-based” approach of HKAS39.
The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. Earlier
application is permitted. Entities applying the standard before 1 February 2015 continue to have the
option to apply the standard in phases. Therefore the Target Group is yet to assess HKFRS 9’s full
impact.

APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
HKFRS 15, “Revenue from contracts with customers”, is based on the principle that revenue
is recognized when control of a good or service transfers to the customer. HKFRS 15 was issued in
July 2014. It replaces the separate models for goods, services and construction contracts under current
HKFRS. HKFRS 15 is a single model that distinguishes between performance obligations satisfied at
a point in time and those are satisfied over time. The criteria are provided to determine when a good
or service transfers over time. But not all the criteria are intuitive and might change practice in some
industries such as real estate and construction. If the criteria are not met, indicators of control are used
to determine when revenue is recognized.
The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. Earlier
application is permitted. The Target Group is yet to assess HKFRS 15’s full impact.
3.3Subsidiaries
3.3.1Consolidation
A subsidiary is an entity (including a structured entity) over which the Target Group has
control. The Target Group controls an entity when the Target Group is exposed to, or has rights
to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns
through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is
transferred to the Target Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
(a)
Business combinations under common control
The combined financial information incorporate the financial statements of the
combining entities or businesses in which the common control combination occurs as if
they had been combined from the date when the combining entities or businesses first
came under the control of the controlling party.
The net assets of the combining entities or businesses are combined using the
existing book values from the controlling parties’ perspective. No amount is recognized
in combination for goodwill or excess of acquirers’ interest in the net fair value of
acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the time of
common control combination, to the extent of the continuation of the controlling party’s
interest.
The combined income statement includes the results of each of the combining
entities or businesses from the earliest date presented or since the date when the
combining entities or businesses first came under the common control, where there is a
shorter period, regardless of the date of the common control combination.
The comparative amounts in the combined financial information are presented as
if the entities or businesses had been combined at the previous balance sheet date or when
they first came under common control, whichever is shorter.
A uniform set of accounting policies is adopted by those entities. All intra-group
transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between combining entities or
businesses are eliminated on combination.
Transaction costs, including professional fees, registration fees, costs of
furnishing information to shareholders, costs or losses incurred in combining operations
of the previously separate businesses, etc., incurred in relation to the common control
combination that is to be accounted for by using merger accounting is recognized as an
expense in the period in which it is incurred.
— II-39 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(b)
Business combinations not under common control
The Target Group applies the acquisition method to account for business
combinations with parties that are not under common control. The consideration
transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred,
the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued
by the Target Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset
or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets
acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are
measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Target Group recognizes
any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either
at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the recognized
amounts of acquiree’s identifiable net assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying
value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is re-measured to
fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement
are recognized in profit or loss.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the Target Group is recognized
at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent
consideration that is deemed to be an asset or liability is recognized in accordance
with HKAS 39 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income.
Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured, and its subsequent
settlement is accounted for within equity.
The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling
interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest
in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as
goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognized
and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the
subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognized directly
in the income statement.
Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between
group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated. When necessary,
amounts reported by subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform with the Target Group’s
accounting policies.
(c)
Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control
Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control
are accounted for as equity transactions – that is, as transactions with the owners of
the subsidiary in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any
consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying amount of net assets
of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling
interests are also recorded in equity.
— II-40 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(d)
Disposal of subsidiaries
When the Target Group ceases to have control, any retained interest in the entity
is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying
amount recognized in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the
purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture
or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive
income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Target Group had directly
disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously
recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.
3.3.2 Separate financial statements
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment. Cost includes direct
attributable costs of investment. The results of subsidiaries are accounted for by the company on
the basis of dividend received and receivable.
Impairment testing of the investments in subsidiaries is required upon receiving a
dividend from these investments if the dividend exceeds the total comprehensive income of the
subsidiary in the period the dividend is declared or if the carrying amount of the investment
in the separate financial statements exceeds the carrying amount in the combined financial
information of the investee’s net assets including goodwill.
3.4
Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to
the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating
resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the executive
committee that makes strategic decisions.
3.5
Foreign currency translation
(a)
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Target Group’s entities are
measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates
(the “functional currency”).The combined financial statements are presented in Renminbi
(“RMB”), which is the Company’s functional and the Target Group’s presentation currency.
(b)
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the
exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the
translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognized in the combined income statement.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents
are presented in the income statement within “finance income or cost”. All other foreign
exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement within “other gains/(losses) –
net”.
— II-41 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency
classified as available-for-sale are analyzed between translation differences resulting from
changes in the amortized cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the
security. Translation differences related to changes in amortized cost are recognized in profit or
loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities, such as equity
instruments held at fair value through profit or loss, are recognized in profit or loss as part of the
fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary items such as equities classified
as available-for-sale financial assets are included in other comprehensive income.
(c)
Group companies
The results and financial position of all the group entities (none of which has the currency
of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation
currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
3.6
(i)
assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing
rate at the date of that balance sheet;
(ii)
income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange
rates(unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative
effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and
expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and
(iii)
all resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to
the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to
the Target Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced
part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the combined income statement
during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to
allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Buildings
Machineries
Vehicles
Office equipment
Electronic equipment
25-50
8
8
5
3
years
years

years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each
balance sheet date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if
the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount (Note 3.7).
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amounts.
These are recognized within “other gains/(losses) — net”, in the combined income statement.
— II-42 —
APPENDIX II
3.7
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets that have an indefinite useful life or are not yet available for use are not subject to
amortization and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not
be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount
exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs
to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels
for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other
than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each
reporting date.
3.8
Financial assets
3.8.1Classification
The Target Group classifies its financial assets into financial assets at fair value through
profit or loss, loans and receivables, and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification
depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines
the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition and re-evaluates this designation at
every reporting date.
(a)
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for
trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the
purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading
unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current
assets if expected to be settled within 12 months; otherwise, they are classified as noncurrent.
(b)
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or
determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in
current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the
reporting period, which are classified as non-current assets. The Target Group’s loans and
receivables comprise “trade and other receivables”, “restricted bank deposit” and “cash
and cash equivalents” in the balance sheet (Note 3.11 and 3.12).
(c)
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated
in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in
non-current assets unless the investment matures or management intends to dispose of it
within 12 months of the end of the reporting period.
3.8.2 Recognition and measurement
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on trade-date, the
date on which the Target Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially
recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value
through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially
— II-43 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the combined income statement.
Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments
have expired or have been transferred and the Target Group has transferred substantially all
risks and rewards of ownership. Available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently carried at
fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective
interest method.
Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the “financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss” category are presented in the income statement within “other gains/(losses)
– net” in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss is recognized in the income statement as part of other income when the
Target Group’s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of monetary and non-monetary securities classified as availablefor-sale are recognized in other comprehensive income.
When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair
value adjustments recognized in equity are included in the combined income statement as part of
“other gains/(losses) – net”.
Interest on available-for-sale securities calculated using the effective interest method are
recognized in the combined income statement as part of other income. Dividends on availablefor-sale equity instruments are recognized in the combined income statement as part of other
income when the Target Group’s right to receive payments is established.
3.9
Impairment of financial assets
(a)
Assets carried at amortized cost
The Target Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective
evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or
a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is
objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial
recognition of the asset (a “loss event”) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the
estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably
estimated.
Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors
is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal
payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization, and
where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash
flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
For loans and receivables category, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference
between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows
(excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s
original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of
the loss is recognized in the combined income statement. If a loan or held-to-maturity investment
has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current
effective interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Target Group
may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market
price.
— II-44 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease
can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized (such as an
improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognized impairment
loss is recognized in the combined income statement.
(b)
Assets classified as available-for-sale
The Target Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective
evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. For debt securities, the
Target Group uses the criteria referred to (a) above. In the case of equity investments classified
as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its
cost is also evidence that the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-forsale financial assets, the cumulative loss — measured as the difference between the acquisition
cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously
recognized in profit or loss — is removed from equity and recognized in the combined income
statement. Impairment losses recognized in the combined income statement on equity instruments
are not reversed through the combined income statement. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value
of a debt instrument classified as available-for-sale increases and the increase can be objectively
related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss, the
impairment loss is reversed through the combined income statement.
3.10Inventories
(a)
Properties under development
Properties under development are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value.
Net realizable value is determined by reference to estimated sales proceeds of the properties
sold in the ordinary course of business less costs to complete development and estimated selling
expenses.
Development costs of properties comprises land use rights, construction costs, borrowing
costs and professional fees as incurred during the development period. On completion, all
development costs of the properties are transferred to completed properties held for sale.
(b)
Completed properties held for sale
Completed properties held for sale are completed properties remaining unsold at the
balance sheet date and are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable values. Cost comprises
development costs attributable to the unsold properties. Net realizable values is determined
by reference to the sale proceeds of properties sold in the ordinary course of business, less
applicable variable selling expenses, or by management estimates based on prevailing marketing
conditions.
3.11
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed
in the ordinary course of business. If collection of trade and other receivables is expected in one year or
less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets. If
not, they are presented as non-current assets.
Trade and other receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at
amortized cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment.
— II-45 —
APPENDIX II
3.12
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Cash and cash equivalents
In the combined cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits
held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three
months or less.
3.13
Combined capital
As the financial information has been prepared on a combined basis, the combined capital in the
combined financial information represents the parent’s net investment in the Target Group.
3.14
Trade payables
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the
ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if
payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If
not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade payables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost
using the effective interest method.
3.15
Borrowings and Borrowing costs
Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings
are subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs)
and the redemption value is recognized in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using
the effective interest method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Target Group has an unconditional right
to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.
General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or
production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get
ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are
substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment
of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing
costs eligible for capitalization. All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period
in which they are incurred.
3.16
Current and deferred income tax
The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred income tax. Tax is recognized in the
income statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income
or directly in equity. In this case the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity, respectively.
3.16.1 Current income tax
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the country where the Target’s subsidiaries
operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax
returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation
and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the
tax authorities.
— II-46 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
3.16.2 Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences
arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the combined
financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the
initial recognition of goodwill, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from
initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination
that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred
income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax
asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future
taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred income tax liabilities are provided on taxable temporary differences arising
from investments in subsidiaries, except for deferred income tax liability where the timing of the
reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Target Group and it is probable that the
temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Generally the Target Group is
unable to control the reversal of the temporary difference for associates. Only where there is an
agreement in place that gives the Target Group the ability to control the reversal of the temporary
difference not recognized.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized on deductible temporary differences arising
from investments in subsidiaries only to the extent that it is probable the temporary difference
will reverse in the future and there is sufficient taxable profit available against which the
temporary difference can be utilized.
3.16.3 Offsetting
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable
right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes
assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the
taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a
net basis.
3.17
Employee benefits
(a)
Employee leave entitlements
Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognized when they accrue to employees. A
provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by
employee up to the balance sheet date. Employee entitlements to sick leave and maternity leave
are not recognized until the time of leave.
(b)
Bonus entitlements
Expected costs of bonus payments are recognized as liabilities when constructive
obligations are present, as a result of services rendered by employees and reliable estimations of
the obligations can be made.
— II-47 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(c)
Retirement benefits
In accordance with the rules and regulations in the PRC, the PRC based employees of
the Target Group participate in various defined contribution retirement plans organized by the
relevant municipal and provincial governments in the PRC under which the Target Group and the
PRC based employees are required to make monthly contributions to these plans calculated as a
percentage of the employees’ salaries.
The municipal and provincial governments undertake to assume the retirement benefit
obligations of all existing and future retired PRC based employees payable under the plans
described above. Other than the monthly contributions, the Target Group has no further obligation
for the payment of retirement and other post retirement benefits of its employees. The assets of
these plans are held separately from those of the Target Group in independently administrated
funds managed by the PRC government.
The Target Group’s contributions to the defined contribution retirement schemes are
expensed as incurred.
3.18Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Target Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as
a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation;
and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required
in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized
even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of
obligations may be small.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to
settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is
recognized as interest expense.
3.19
Financial guarantee liabilities
Financial guarantee liabilities are recognized in respect of the financial guarantee provided by the
Target Group to the property purchasers.
Financial guarantee liabilities are recognized initially at fair value plus transaction costs that
are directly attributable to the issue of the financial guarantee liabilities. After initial recognition, such
contracts are measured at the higher of the present value of the best estimate of the expenditure required
to settle the present obligation and the amount initially recognized less cumulative amortization.
Financial guarantee liabilities are derecognized from the balance sheet when, and only when, the
obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expired.
3.20
Contract work
Contract costs are recognized when incurred.
When the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognized
only to the extent of contract costs incurred that are likely to be recoverable by reference to the stage of
completion.
— II-48 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
When the outcome of a contract can be estimated reliably and it is probable that the contract will
be profitable, contract revenue is recognized over the period of the contract. When it is probable that
total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected losses are recognized as expense
immediately.
The Target Group uses the “percentage of completion method” to determine the appropriate
amount to be recognized in a given period. Depending on the nature of contracts, the stage of completion
is measured by reference to (a) the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date to
estimated total contract costs; (b) the amount of work certified by site engineers; or (c) completion of
physical proportion of the contract work. Costs incurred in the year in connection with future activity on
a contract are excluded from contract costs in determining the stage of completion. They are presented
as inventories, prepayments or other assets, depending on their nature.
Contract work-in-progress is valued at the cost price of the work done, plus a part of the
expected profit upon completion of the project in proportion to the progress made and less progress
receivables and provisions. Provisions are recognized for expected losses on contract work-in-progress,
as soon as they are foreseen, and deducted from the cost price. The cost price includes direct project
costs, consisting of direct payroll costs, materials, costs of subcontracted work, other direct costs, rental
charges and maintenance costs for the equipment used. The progress of a project is determined on the
basis mentioned in preceding paragraph. Profits are not recognized unless a reliable estimate can be
made of the result on completion of the project. The balance of the value of contract work-in-progress
and progress receivables is determined on a project by project basis.
The Target Group presents as an asset the “amounts due from customers for contract work” for
all contracts in progress for which costs incurred plus recognized profits exceed progress receivables.
Progress receivables not yet paid by customers and retention are included within “trade and other
receivables”.
3.21
Revenue recognition
Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods
and services in the ordinary course of the Target Group’s activities. Revenue is shown, net of returns,
discounts and after eliminating sales within the Target Group.
The Target Group recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is
probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and when specific criteria have been met
for each of the Target Group’s activities as described below. The Target Group bases its estimates on
historical results, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.
(a)
Sale of properties
Revenue from sales of properties is recognized when the risks and rewards of the
properties transferred to the purchaser, which is when the construction of the relevant properties
have been completed and properties have been delivered to the purchaser pursuant to the
sale agreements, and collectability of related receivables is reasonably assured. Deposits and
instalments received on properties sold prior to the date of revenue recognition are included
in current liabilities, and are separately stated in the balance sheet as advances receipts from
customers.
(b)
Revenue from upfitting contracts
Revenue from individual upfitting contract is recognized, over the period of the contracts,
when the outcome of the contracts can be estimated reliably and it is probable that these contracts
will be profitable.
— II-49 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
When the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is
recognized only to the extent of contract costs incurred that are likely to be recoverable.
The Target Group uses the “percentage of completion method” to determine the
appropriate amount to be recognized in a given period. Depending on the nature of contracts,
the stage of completion is measured by reference to the proportion of contract costs incurred for
work performed to date to estimated total contract costs.
(c)
Interest income
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. When a loan and
receivable is impaired, the Target Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount,
being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the
instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income.
4.
Financial risk management
4.1
Financial risk factors
The Target Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including
foreign exchange risk, cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk), credit risk and
liquidity risk. The Target Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability
of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Target Group’s financial
performance. The board of directors reviews and approves policies for managing each of these risks and
they are summarized below.
(a)
Market risk
(i)
Foreign exchange risk
The operations and majority of the Target Group’s customers are located in the
PRC with most of the assets/liabilities and transactions denominated and settled in RMB.
As the commercial transactions settled in foreign currencies are not material, the directors
of the Target are of the view that the Target Group’s exposure to foreign exchange risk
would be immaterial.
(ii)
Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
As the Target Group has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Target Group’s
income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market
interest rates.
The Target Group’s interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with
prevailing market interest rates. Such risk is partly offset by cash at banks held at
prevailing market interest rates. During the Relevant Periods, the Target Group’s
borrowings at prevailing market interest rates were denominated in RMB.
The Target Group currently does not utilize any derivative contracts to hedge its
exposure to interest rate risk. However, management will consider hedging significant
interest rate exposure should the need arise.
The directors of the Target consider that the fluctuation in interest rate has no
material impact on the Group’s post-tax profit for the Relevant Periods as most of interest
expenses were capitalized.

(b)
Credit risk
Credit risk arises from restricted bank deposits, cash and cash equivalents, trade and other
receivables. The carrying amounts of restricted bank deposits, cash and cash equivalents, trade
and other receivables, represent the Target Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation
to its financial assets.
To manage such exposure, the Target Group has policies in place to ensure that sales
are made to purchasers with appropriate financial strengths and credit history, at the same
time appropriate percentages of down payments are made. Deposits are placed with banks with
appropriate credit ratings. Monitoring procedures are also in place to ensure that follow-up
action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Target Group reviews and assesses the
recoverable amount of each individual trade receivables on a regular basis to ensure that adequate
impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. The Target Group has no significant
concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a number of counterparties and customers.
Credit risk arises from restricted bank deposits is limited, as all counterparties are banks
with appropriate credit rankings.
The Target Group has provided guarantees to banks in favor of certain customers to
secure their repayment obligations to banks, for their purchases of property units. If a customer
defaults on the payment of its mortgage during the term of the guarantee, banks holding the
mortgage may demand the Target Group to repay the outstanding amount together with any
accrued interest thereon. Under such circumstances, the Target Group is able to sell the property
to recover any amounts paid by the Target Group to banks. The directors of the Target consider
that the Group’s exposure to credit risk in this regard is minimal.
(c)
Liquidity risk
Cash flow forecast by the Target Group and the Target Group monitors rolling forecasts
of the Target Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational
needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities at
all times so that the group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on
any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecast takes into consideration the Target Group’s debt
financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with internal balance sheet ratio targets.
As at 31 December 2011, 2012 and 2013, the Target Group held cash and cash equivalents
of RMB674,433,000, RMB1,661,309,000 and RMB1,328,957,000 (Note 17) and trade and other
receivables of RMB2,944,264,000, RMB3,859,009,000 and RMB3,448,522,000 (Note 13) that are
expected to readily generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk.

Capital risk management
The Target Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Target Group’s
ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other
stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Target Group may adjust the amount of
dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
Consistent with others in the industry, the Target Group monitors capital on the basis of the
gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total
borrowings (including current and non-current borrowings as shown in the combined balance sheet) less
cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as “equity” as shown in the combined balance sheet
plus net debt.

As at respective balance sheet dates, the Target Group has gearing ratio of over 70%, which
created doubt about the Target Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The directors of the Target
Group have prepared cash flow projections by taking into account the financial resources available to the
Target Group which mainly includes cash generated from operating activities. In addition, subsequent to
31 December 2013, borrowings from a fellow subsidiary amounting to RMB6,752,013,000 were replaced
by long term entrusted loans (see Note 33). On this basis, the directors of the Company believe that
the Target Group will have sufficient financial resources for its operations at least for the next twelve
months from 31 December 2013.
5.
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The Target Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting
estimates will, by definition, seldom equal actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant
risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial
year are discussed below.
(a)
Income taxes and land appreciation tax (“LAT”)
The Target Group is primarily subject to various PRC taxes, as it is principally engaged in
property development in the PRC. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for
income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is
uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Target recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax
audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of
these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the
income tax and deferred income tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
The implementation and settlement of LAT varies among various tax jurisdictions in cities
of the PRC. LAT is levied at progressive rates ranging from 30% to 60% on the appreciation of land
value, being the proceeds from sales of properties less deductible expenditures including land use rights,
borrowing costs, business taxes, property development and other related expenditures. These taxes are
incurred upon transfer of property ownership.
— II-53 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Significant judgment is required in determining the extent of land appreciation and its related
taxes. The Target Group recognized LAT based on management’s best estimates according to the
understanding of the tax rules. The final tax outcome could be different from the amounts that were
initially recorded, and these differences will impact the combined income statement in the periods in
which such taxes are finalized with local tax authorities.
(b)
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax assets relating to certain temporary differences and tax losses are recognized
when management considers it probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the
temporary differences or tax losses can be utilized. The outcome of their actual utilization may be
different.
(c) Estimations for total properties construction cost
The Target Group estimates properties construction cost upon recognition of respective costs
of sales. Such estimates are substantiated by detailed budgetary information as developed by the
management, and will be assessed periodically, as the constructions progress. Should these estimates
depart from their actual finalized costs, such differences would affect the accuracy of costs of sales
recognized.
(d)
Revenue recognition
The Target Group has recognized revenue from the sale of properties held for sale as disclosed
in Note 3.21. The assessment of when an entity has transferred the significant risks and rewards of
ownership to buyers requires the examination of the circumstances of the transaction. In most cases,
the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership coincides with the date when the equitable interest in the
property vests to the buyer, upon release of the respective property to the purchaser.
As disclosed in Note 30, the Target Group provided guarantees in respect of mortgage facilities
granted by certain banks relating to the mortgage loans arranged for certain purchasers of the Target
Group’s properties. These guarantees will expire when relevant property ownership certificates are
lodged with the banks by the purchasers. In order to obtain mortgages, the purchasers would have settled
certain percentage of the total contract amount in accordance with related PRC regulations upon delivery
of the properties. The directors of the Target are of the opinion that such settlements provide sufficient
evidence of the purchasers’ commitment to honour contractual obligation of the bank loans. In addition,
based on past experiences, there were no significant defaults of mortgage facilities by the purchasers
resulted in the bank guarantees provided. Accordingly, the directors believe that significant risks and
rewards associated to the ownership of the properties have been transferred to the purchasers.
(e)
Construction contracts
Revenue from individual upfitting contract is recognized under the percentage of completion
method which requires estimation made by management. Because of the nature of the activity undertaken
in upfitting services, the date at which the contract activity is entered into and the date when the activity
is completed sometimes fall into different accounting periods.
The Target Group reviews and revises the estimates of both contract revenue and contract costs
in each contract budget as the contract progresses and regularly reviews the progress of the contracts.
The Target Group also monitors the progress payments from customers against the contract terms, and
periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of the customers. If circumstances arise which make it likely
that a customer would default on all or part of its payments or otherwise fail to fulfil its performance
obligations under the contract terms, the Target Group will reassess the outcome of the relevant contract
— II-54 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
and may revise the relevant estimates. The revision will be reflected in the combined income statement
in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by the Target
Group.
(f)
Estimated impairment of assets
The Target Group tests at least annually whether assets have suffered any impairment in
accordance with the accounting policies stated in Note 3.7. Assets are also reviewed for impairment,
whenever events or changes in circumstances that may cause the carrying amounts of the assets to exceed
their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash generating unit is determined as
the higher of cash generating unit’s fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use which requires the use
of assumptions and estimates.
6.
Segment information
Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the chief operating
committee (the “Committee”) that are used to make strategic decisions. The Committee considers the business’
performance from a product perspective and has categorized its business into property development and upfitting
services.
The Committee assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of operating
profit. This measurement basis excludes the effects of non-recurring expenditure from the operating segments.
Finance costs and corporate finance income are not included in the result for each operating segment that is
reviewed by the Committee, as they are driven by activities of the central treasury function, which manages
the cash position of the Target Group. Other information provided to the Committee, except as noted below, is
measured in a manner consistent with that in the financial statements.
Total segment assets exclude corporate cash and cash equivalents and deferred income tax assets, both
of which are managed on a central basis. Total segment liabilities exclude borrowings and deferred income tax
liabilities, both of which are managed on a central basis as well. These are part of the reconciliation to total
balance sheet assets and liabilities.
Transactions between segments are carried out at arm’s length. The revenue from external parties
reported to the Committee is measured in a manner consistent with that in the combined income statement.
Turnover consists of sales from property development and contract revenue as derived from upfitting
services, which are as follows:

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION
1.
Group information
Max Great Holdings Limited (“Max Great Holdings”) was incorporated with limited liability in the
British Virgin Islands on 4 January 2008. The address of its registered office is P.O. Box 957, Offshore
Incorporations Centre, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands.
Max Great Holdings, being an investment holding company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to
as the “Max Great Holdings Group”) are principally engaged in property development in the People’s Republic
of China (the “PRC”).
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Renminbi(“RMB”), unless otherwise stated.
Sino-Ocean Land Holdings Limited (the “SOLH”) is the ultimate holding company of Max Great
Holdings Group during the Relevant Periods and up to the date of this report.
2.
Basis of preparation
The Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting
Standards (“HKFRS”). They have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The preparation of the Financial Information in conformity with HKFRS requires the use of certain
critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the
Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where
assumptions and estimates are significant to the Financial Information, are disclosed in Note 5.
3.
Summary of significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Financial Information are set out
below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the relevant years presented, unless otherwise stated.
3.1
New and amended standards and interpretations not yet adopted
The following new standard has been issued but is not effective for the financial year beginning
1 January 2014 and has not been early adopted:
HKFRS 9, “Financial instruments”, addresses the classification, measurement and recognition
of financial assets and financial liabilities. HKFRS 9 was issued in November 2009 and October 2010
and amended in July 2014. It replaces the whole of IAS/HKAS 39. HKFRS 9 has three financial asset
classification categories for investments in debt instruments: amortised cost, fair value through other
comprehensive income (“OCI”) and fair value through profit or loss. Classification is driven by the
entity’s business model for managing the debt instruments and their contractual cash flow characteristics.
Investments in equity instruments are always measured at fair value. However, management can make
an irrevocable election to present changes in fair value in OCI, provided the instrument is not held for
trading. If the equity instrument is held for trading, changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss.
For financial liabilities there are two classification categories: amortised cost and fair value through
profit or loss. Where non-derivative financial liabilities are designated at fair value through profit or
loss, the changes in the fair value due to changes in the liability’s own credit risk are recognised in
OCI, unless such changes in fair value would create an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, in which
case, all fair value movements are recognised in profit or loss. There is no subsequent recycling of the
amounts in OCI to profit or loss. For financial liabilities held for trading (including derivative financial
liabilities), all changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss.
— II-104 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
HKFRS 9 introduces a new model for the recognition of impairment losses – the expected credit
losses (ECL) model, which constitutes a change from the incurred loss model in HKAS 39. HKFRS
9 contains a “three stage” approach, which is based on the change in credit quality of financial assets
since initial recognition. Assets move through the three stages as credit quality changes and the stages
dictate how an entity measures impairment losses and applies the effective interest rate method. The new
rules mean that on initial recognition of a non-credit impaired financial asset carried at amortised cost a
day-1 loss equal to the 12-month ECL is recognised in profit or loss. In the case of accounts receivables
this day-1 loss will be equal to their lifetime ECL. Where there is a significant increase in credit risk,
impairment is measured using lifetime ECL rather than 12-month ECL.
HKFRS 9 applies to all hedging relationships, with the exception of portfolio fair value hedges of
interest rate risk. The new guidance better aligns hedge accounting with the risk management activities
of an entity and provides relief from the more “rule-based” approach of IAS/HKAS39.
The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. Earlier
application is permitted. Entities applying the standard before 1 February 2015 continue to have the
option to apply the standard in phases. Therefore Max Great Holdings Group is yet to assess HKFRS 9’s
full impact.
HKFRS 15, “Revenue from contracts with customers”, is based on the principle that revenue
is recognized when control of a good or service transfers to the customer. HKFRS 15 was issued in
July 2014. It replaces the separate models for goods, services and construction contracts under current
HKFRS. HKFRS 15 is a single model that distinguishes between performance obligations satisfied at
a point in time and those are satisfied over time. The criteria are provided to determine when a good
or service transfers over time. But not all the criteria are intuitive and might change practice in some
industries such as real estate and construction. If the criteria are not met, indicators of control are used
to determine when revenue is recognized.
The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. Earlier
application is permitted. Max Great Holdings Group is yet to assess HKFRS 15’s full impact.
3.2Subsidiaries
3.2.1Consolidation
A subsidiary is an entity (including a structured entity) over which Max Great Holdings
Group has control. Max Great Holdings Group controls an entity when Max Great Holdings
Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity
and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are
consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to Max Great Holdings Group. They
are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
— II-105 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(a)
Business combinations
Max Great Holdings Group applies the acquisition method to account for business
combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the
fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the
acquiree and the equity interests issued by Max Great Holdings Group. The consideration
transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent
consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent
liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values
at the acquisition date. Max Great Holdings Group recognizes any non-controlling
interests in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at
the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the recognized amounts of acquiree’s
identifiable net assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying
value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is re-measured to
fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement
are recognized in profit or loss.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by Max Great Holdings Group is
recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of
the contingent consideration that is deemed to be an asset or liability is recognized in
accordance with HKAS 39 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive
income. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured, and its
subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.
The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling
interests in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest
in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as
goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interests recognized
and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the
subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognized directly
in the income statement.
Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between
group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated. When necessary,
amounts reported by subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform with Max Great Holdings
Group’s accounting policies.
(b)
Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control
Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control
are accounted for as equity transactions – that is, as transactions with the owners of
the subsidiary in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any
consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying amount of net assets
of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling
interests are also recorded in equity.
— II-106 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(c)
Disposal of subsidiaries
When Max Great Holdings Group ceases to have control, any retained interest in
the entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change
in carrying amount recognized in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying
amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an
associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized
in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if Max Great
Holdings Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean
that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to
profit or loss.
3.2.2 Separate financial statements
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment. Cost includes direct
attributable costs of investment. The results of subsidiaries are accounted for by the company on
the basis of dividend received and receivable.
Impairment testing of the investments in subsidiaries is required upon receiving a
dividend from these investments if the dividend exceeds the total comprehensive income of the
subsidiary in the period the dividend is declared or if the carrying amount of the investment
in the separate financial statements exceeds the carrying amount in the consolidated financial
statements of the investee’s net assets including goodwill.
3.3
Foreign currency translation
(a)
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of Max Great Holdings Group’s
entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the
entity operates (the “functional currency”).The consolidated financial statements are presented
in Renminbi (“RMB”), which is the Company’s functional and Max Great Holdings Group’s
presentation currency.
(b)
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the
exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the
translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognized in the consolidated income statement.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents
are presented in the income statement within “finance income or cost”. All other foreign
exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement within “other gains/(losses) –
net”.
Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency
classified as available-for-sale are analyzed between translation differences resulting from
changes in the amortized cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the
security. Translation differences related to changes in amortized cost are recognized in profit or
loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognized in other comprehensive income.
— II-107 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities, such as equity
instruments held at fair value through profit or loss, are recognized in profit or loss as part of the
fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary items such as equities classified
as available-for-sale financial assets are included in other comprehensive income.
(c)
Group companies
The results and financial position of all the group entities (none of which has the currency
of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation
currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
3.4
(i)
assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing
rate at the date of that balance sheet;
(ii)
income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange
rates(unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative
effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and
expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and
(iii)
all resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to
the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset,
as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow
to Max Great Holdings Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount
of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the consolidated
income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to
allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Vehicles
Office equipment
Electronic equipment
8 years
5 years
3 years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each
balance sheet date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if
the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount (Note 3.5).
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amounts.
These are recognized within “other gains/(losses) — net”, in the consolidated income statement.
3.5
Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets that have an indefinite useful life or are not yet available for use are not subject to
amortization and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not
be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount

to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels
for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other
than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each
reporting date.
3.6
Financial assets
3.6.1Classification
Max Great Holdings Group classifies its financial assets into financial assets at fair
value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, and available-for-sale financial assets. The
classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management
determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition and re-evaluates this
designation at every reporting date.
(a)
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for
trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the
purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading
unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current
assets if expected to be settled within 12 months; otherwise, they are classified as noncurrent.
(b)
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or
determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in
current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the
reporting period, which are classified as non-current assets. Max Great Holdings Group’s
loans and receivables comprise “trade and other receivables”, “restricted bank deposit”
and “cash and cash equivalents” in the balance sheet (Note 3.9 and 3.10).
(c)
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated
in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in
non-current assets unless the investment matures or management intends to dispose of it
within 12 months of the end of the reporting period.
3.6.2 Recognition and measurement
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on trade-date, the
date on which Max Great Holdings Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments
are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at
fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are
initially recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the consolidated income
statement. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the
investments have expired or have been transferred and Max Great Holdings Group has transferred
substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Available-for-sale financial assets are
subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortized
cost using the effective interest method.
— II-109 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the “financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss” category are presented in the income statement within “other gains/(losses)
– net” in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss is recognized in the income statement as part of other income when Max
Great Holdings Group’s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of monetary and non-monetary securities classified as availablefor-sale are recognized in other comprehensive income.
When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair
value adjustments recognized in equity are included in the consolidated income statement as part
of “other gains/(losses) – net”.
Interests on available-for-sale securities calculated using the effective interest method are
recognized in the consolidated income statement as part of other income. Dividends on availablefor-sale equity instruments are recognized in the consolidated income statement as part of other
income when Max Great Holdings Group’s right to receive payments is established.
3.7
Impairment of financial assets
(a)
Assets carried at amortized cost
Max Great Holdings Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there
is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial
asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is
objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial
recognition of the asset (a “loss event”) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the
estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably
estimated.
Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors
is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal
payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization, and
where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash
flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
For loans and receivables category, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference
between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows
(excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s
original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount
of the loss is recognized in the consolidated income statement. If a loan or held-to-maturity
investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the
current effective interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, Max Great
Holdings Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an
observable market price.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease
can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized (such as an
improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognized impairment
loss is recognized in the consolidated income statement.
— II-110 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(b)
Assets classified as available-for-sale
Max Great Holdings Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there
is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. For debt
securities, Max Great Holdings Group uses the criteria referred to (a) above. In the case of equity
investments classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value
of the security below its cost is also evidence that the assets are impaired. If any such evidence
exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss — measured as the difference
between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial
asset previously recognized in profit or loss — is removed from equity and recognized in the
consolidated income statement. Impairment losses recognized in the combined income statement
on equity instruments are not reversed through the consolidated income statement. If, in a
subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available-for-sale increases
and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was
recognized in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through the consolidated income
statement.
3.8Inventories
(a)
Properties under development
Properties under development are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value.
Net realizable value is determined by reference to estimated sales proceeds of the properties
sold in the ordinary course of business less costs to complete development and estimated selling
expenses.
Development costs of properties comprises land use rights, construction costs, borrowing
costs and professional fees as incurred during the development period. On completion, all
development costs of the properties are transferred to completed properties held for sale.
(b)
Completed properties held for sale
Completed properties held for sale are completed properties remaining unsold at the
balance sheet date and are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable values. Cost comprises
development costs attributable to the unsold properties. Net realizable values is determined
by reference to the sale proceeds of properties sold in the ordinary course of business, less
applicable variable selling expenses, or by management estimates based on prevailing marketing
conditions.
3.9
Other receivables
If collection of other receivables is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle
of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current
assets.
Other receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized
cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment.
3.10
Cash and cash equivalents
In the consolidated cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand,
deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of
three months or less.
— II-111 —
APPENDIX II
3.11
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental cost directly attributable to the issue of new
shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
3.12
Trade payables
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the
ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if
payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If
not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade payables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost
using the effective interest method.
3.13
Borrowings and Borrowing costs
Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings
are subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs)
and the redemption value is recognized in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using
the effective interest method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless Max Great Holdings Group has an
unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.
General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or
production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get
ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are
substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment
of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing
costs eligible for capitalization. All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period
in which they are incurred.
3.14
Current and deferred income tax
The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred income tax. Tax is recognized in the
income statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income
or directly in equity. In this case the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity, respectively.
3.14.1 Current income tax
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the country where Max Great Holdings’s
subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions
taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to
interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to
be paid to the tax authorities.
3.14.2 Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences
arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the
consolidated financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if they
— II-112 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
arise from the initial recognition of goodwill, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if
it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business
combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit
or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted
or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related
deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future
taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred income tax liabilities are provided on taxable temporary differences arising
from investments in subsidiaries, except for deferred income tax liability where the timing of
the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by Max Great Holdings Group and it is
probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Generally Max
Great Holdings Group is unable to control the reversal of the temporary difference for associates.
Only where there is an agreement in place that gives Max Great Holdings Group the ability to
control the reversal of the temporary difference not recognized.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized on deductible temporary differences arising
from investments in subsidiaries only to the extent that it is probable the temporary difference
will reverse in the future and there is sufficient taxable profit available against which the
temporary difference can be utilized.
3.14.3Offsetting
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable
right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes
assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the
taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a
net basis.
3.15
Employee benefits
(a)
Employee leave entitlements
Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognized when they accrue to employees. A
provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by
employee up to the balance sheet date. Employee entitlements to sick leave and maternity leave
are not recognized until the time of leave.
(b)
Bonus entitlements
Expected costs of bonus payments are recognized as liabilities when constructive
obligations are present, as a result of services rendered by employees and reliable estimations of
the obligations can be made.
(c)
Retirement benefits
In accordance with the rules and regulations in the PRC, the PRC based employees of
Max Great Holdings Group participate in various defined contribution retirement plans organized
by the relevant municipal and provincial governments in the PRC under which Max Great
Holdings Group and the PRC based employees are required to make monthly contributions to
these plans calculated as a percentage of the employees’ salaries.
— II-113 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
The municipal and provincial governments undertake to assume the retirement benefit
obligations of all existing and future retired PRC based employees payable under the plans
described above. Other than the monthly contributions, Max Great Holdings Group has no further
obligation for the payment of retirement and other post retirement benefits of its employees.
The assets of these plans are held separately from those of Max Great Holdings Group in
independently administrated funds managed by the PRC government.
Max Great Holdings Group’s contributions to the defined contribution retirement schemes
are expensed as incurred.
3.16Provisions
Provisions are recognized when Max Great Holdings Group has a present legal or constructive
obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle
the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future
operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required
in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized
even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of
obligations may be small.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to
settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is
recognized as interest expense.
3.17
Revenue recognition
Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods
and services in the ordinary course of Max Great Holdings Group’s activities. Revenue is shown, net of
returns, discounts and after eliminating sales within Max Great Holdings Group.
Max Great Holdings Group recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably
measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and when specific criteria
have been met for each of Max Great Holdings Group’s activities as described below. Max Great
Holdings Group bases its estimates on historical results, the type of transaction and the specifics of each
arrangement.
(a)
Sale of properties
Revenue from sales of properties is recognized when the risks and rewards of the
properties transferred to the purchaser, which is when the construction of the relevant properties
have been completed and properties have been delivered to the purchaser pursuant to the
sale agreements, and collectability of related receivables is reasonably assured. Deposits and
instalments received on properties sold prior to the date of revenue recognition are included
in current liabilities, and are separately stated in the balance sheet as advances receipts from
customers.
(b)
Interest income
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. When a loan and
receivable is impaired, Max Great Holdings Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable
amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of
the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income.

Great Holdings Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the
markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on Max Great
performance. The board of directors reviews and approves policies for
and they are summarized below.
Market risk
(i)
Foreign exchange risk
The operations and majority of Max Great Holdings Group’s customers are located
in the PRC with most of the assets/liabilities and transactions denominated and settled
in RMB. As the commercial transactions settled in foreign currencies are not material,
the directors of Max Great Holdings are of the view that Max Great Holdings Group’s
exposure to foreign exchange risk would be immaterial.
(ii)
Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
As Max Great Holdings Group has no significant interest-bearing assets, Max
Great Holdings Group’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of
changes in market interest rates.
Max Great Holdings Group’s interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings
with prevailing market interest rates. Such risk is partly offset by cash at banks held
at prevailing market interest rates. During the Relevant Periods, Max Great Holdings
Group’s borrowings at prevailing market interest rates were denominated in RMB.
Max Great Holdings Group currently does not utilize any derivative contracts
to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk. However, management will consider hedging
significant interest rate exposure should the need arise.
The directors of Max Great Holdings consider that the fluctuation in interest rate
has no material impact on Max Great Holdings Group’s post-tax profit for the Relevant
Periods as most of interest expenses were capitalized.
(b)
Credit risk
Credit risk arises from restricted bank deposits, cash and cash equivalents, trade and other
receivables. The carrying amounts of restricted bank deposits, cash and cash equivalents, other
receivables, represent Max Great Holdings Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation
to its financial assets.
To manage such exposure, Max Great Holdings Group has policies in place to ensure
that sales are made to purchasers with appropriate financial strengths and credit history, at the
same time appropriate percentages of down payments are made. Deposits are placed with banks
with appropriate credit ratings. Monitoring procedures are also in place to ensure that followup action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, Max Great Holdings Group reviews and
assesses the recoverable amount of each individual receivable on a regular basis to ensure that
adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. Max Great Holdings Group has
no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a number of counterparties
and customers.
— II-115 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Credit risk arises from restricted bank deposits is limited, as all counterparties are banks
with appropriate credit rankings.
(c)
Liquidity risk
Cash flow forecast by Max Great Holdings Group and Max Great Holdings Group
monitors rolling forecasts of Max Great Holdings Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure
it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its
undrawn committed borrowing facilities at all times so that the group does not breach borrowing
limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecast takes
into consideration Max Great Holdings Group’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance,
compliance with internal balance sheet ratio targets.
As at 31 December 2011, 2012 and 2013, Max Great Holdings Group held cash and
cash equivalents of RMB 1,387,000, RMB 50,883,000 and RMB 204,201,000 (Note 13) and
other receivables of RMB 391,000, RMB 57,201,000 and RMB 124,825,000 (Note 10) that are
expected to readily generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk.

Capital risk management
Max Great Holdings Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard Max Great
Holdings Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and
benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, Max Great Holdings Group may adjust the
amount of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
Consistent with others in the industry, Max Great Holdings Group monitors capital on the basis
of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated
as total borrowings (including current and non-current borrowings as shown in the consolidated balance
sheet) less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as “equity” as shown in the consolidated
balance sheet plus net debt.
The gearing ratios at 31 December 2011, 2012 and 2013 were as follows.

Critical accounting estimates and judgements
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Max Great Holdings Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting
accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a
significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next
financial year are discussed below.
(a)
Income taxes and land appreciation tax (“LAT”)
Max Great Holdings Group is primarily subject to various PRC taxes, as it is principally engaged
in property development in the PRC. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for
income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination
is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Max Great Holdings recognizes liabilities for
anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final
tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences
will impact the income tax and deferred income tax provisions in the period in which such determination
is made.
The implementation and settlement of LAT varies among various tax jurisdictions in cities
of the PRC. LAT is levied at progressive rates ranging from 30% to 60% on the appreciation of land
value, being the proceeds from sales of properties less deductible expenditures including land use rights,
borrowing costs, business taxes, property development and other related expenditures. These taxes are
incurred upon transfer of property ownership.
Significant judgment is required in determining the extent of land appreciation and its related
taxes. Max Great Holdings Group recognized LAT based on management’s best estimates according to
the understanding of the tax rules. The final tax outcome could be different from the amounts that were
initially recorded, and these differences will impact the consolidated income statement in the periods in
which such taxes are finalized with local tax authorities.
(b)
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax assets relating to certain temporary differences and tax losses are recognized
when management considers it probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the
temporary differences or tax losses can be utilized. The outcome of their actual utilization may be
different.
(c)
Estimations for total properties construction cost
Max Great Holdings Group estimates properties construction cost upon recognition of respective
costs of sales. Such estimates are substantiated by detailed budgetary information as developed by the
management, and will be assessed periodically, as the constructions progress. Should these estimates
depart from their actual finalized costs, such differences would affect the accuracy of costs of sales
recognized.
(d)
Revenue recognition
Max Great Holdings Group has recognized revenue from the sale of properties held for sale
as disclosed in Note 3.17. The assessment of when an entity has transferred the significant risks and
rewards of ownership to buyers requires the examination of the circumstances of the transaction. In most
cases, the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership coincides with the date when the equitable interest
in the property vests to the buyer, upon release of the respective property to the purchaser.

Estimated impairment of assets
Max Great Holdings Group tests at least annually whether assets have suffered any impairment
in accordance with the accounting policies stated in Note 3.5. Assets are also reviewed for impairment,
whenever events or changes in circumstances that may cause the carrying amounts of the assets to exceed
their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash generating unit is determined as
the higher of cash generating unit’s fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use which requires the use
of assumptions and estimates.

certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process
of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment
or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the combined financial
statements, are disclosed in Note 5.
As at 31 December 2013, the Bright Shining Group’s gearing ratio is 100%, which created doubt
about Bright Shining Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The directors of the Bright Shining
have prepared cash flow projections by taking into account the financial resources available to the Bright
Shining Group, mainly including cash generated from operating activities. Moreover, other borrowings
from a fellow subsidiary amounting to RMB1,170,434,000 (see Note 11) were replaced by long term
entrusted loans as a result of an agreement reached between the Bright Shining Group and a subsidiary
of SOLH after 31 December 2013 (see Note 22). Taking these into account, the directors of the Company
believe that the Bright Shining Group will have sufficient financial resources for its operations in the
next twelve months from 31 December 2013. Consequently the directors of the Company have prepared
the Financial Information on a going concern basis.
3.2
New and amended standards and interpretations not yet adopted
The following new standard has been issued but is not effective for the financial year beginning
1 January 2014 and has not been early adopted:
HKFRS 9, “Financial instruments”, addresses the classification, measurement and recognition
of financial assets and financial liabilities. HKFRS 9 was issued in November 2009 and October 2010
and amended in July 2014. It replaces the whole of HKAS 39. HKFRS 9 has three financial asset
classification categories for investments in debt instruments: amortised cost, fair value through other
comprehensive income (“OCI”) and fair value through profit or loss. Classification is driven by the
entity’s business model for managing the debt instruments and their contractual cash flow characteristics.
Investments in equity instruments are always measured at fair value. However, management can make
an irrevocable election to present changes in fair value in OCI, provided the instrument is not held for
trading. If the equity instrument is held for trading, changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss.
For financial liabilities there are two classification categories: amortised cost and fair value through
profit or loss. Where non-derivative financial liabilities are designated at fair value through profit or
loss, the changes in the fair value due to changes in the liability’s own credit risk are recognised in
OCI, unless such changes in fair value would create an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, in which
case, all fair value movements are recognised in profit or loss. There is no subsequent recycling of the
amounts in OCI to profit or loss. For financial liabilities held for trading (including derivative financial
liabilities), all changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss.
HKFRS 9 introduces a new model for the recognition of impairment losses – the expected credit
losses (ECL) model, which constitutes a change from the incurred loss model in HKAS 39. HKFRS 9
contains a “three stage” approach, which is based on the change in credit quality of financial assets since
initial recognition. Assets move through the three stages as credit quality changes and the stages dictate
how an entity measures impairment losses and applies the effective interest rate method. The new rules
mean that on initial recognition of a non-credit impaired financial asset carried at amortised cost a day1 loss equal to the 12-month ECL is recognised in profit or loss. In the case of accounts receivables
this day-1 loss will be equal to their lifetime ECL. Where there is a significant increase in credit risk,
impairment is measured using lifetime ECL rather than 12-month ECL.
— II-150 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
HKFRS 9 applies to all hedging relationships, with the exception of portfolio fair value hedges of
interest rate risk. The new guidance better aligns hedge accounting with the risk management activities
of an entity and provides relief from the more “rule-based” approach of HKAS39.
The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. Earlier
application is permitted. Entities applying the standard before 1 February 2015 continue to have the
option to apply the standard in phases. Therefore the Bright Shining Group is yet to assess HKFRS 9’s
full impact.
HKFRS 15, “Revenue from contracts with customers”, is based on the principle that revenue
is recognized when control of a good or service transfers to the customer. HKFRS 15 was issued in
July 2014. It replaces the separate models for goods, services and construction contracts under current
HKFRS. HKFRS 15 is a single model that distinguishes between performance obligations satisfied at
a point in time and those are satisfied over time. The criteria are provided to determine when a good
or service transfers over time. But not all the criteria are intuitive and might change practice in some
industries such as real estate and construction. If the criteria are not met, indicators of control are used
to determine when revenue is recognized.
The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. Earlier
application is permitted. The Bright Shining Group is yet to assess HKFRS 15’s full impact.
3.3Subsidiaries
3.3.1Consolidation
A subsidiary is an entity (including a structured entity) over which the Bright Shining
Group has control. The Bright Shining Group controls an entity when the Bright Shining
Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity
and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are
consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Bright Shining Group. They are
deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
(a)
Business combination under common control
The combined financial information incorporate the financial statements of the
combining entities or businesses in which the common control combination occurs as if
they had been combined from the date when the combining entities or businesses first
came under the control of the controlling party.
The net assets of the combining entities or businesses are combined using the
existing book values from the controlling parties’ perspective. No amount is recognized
in consideration for goodwill or excess of acquirers’ interest in the net fair value of
acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the time of
common control combination, to the extent of the continuation of the controlling party’s
interest.
The combined income statement includes the results of each of the combining
entities or businesses from the earliest date presented or since the date when the
combining entities or businesses first came under the common control, where there is a
shorter period, regardless of the date of the common control combination.
The comparative amounts in the combined financial information are presented as
if the entities or businesses had been combined at the previous balance sheet date or when
they first came under common control, whichever is shorter.
— II-151 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
A uniform set of accounting policies is adopted by those entities. All intra-group
transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between combining entities or
businesses are eliminated on combination.
Transaction costs, including professional fees, registration fees, costs of
furnishing information to shareholders, costs or losses incurred in combining operations
of the previously separate businesses, etc., incurred in relation to the common control
combination that is to be accounted for by using merger accounting is recognized as an
expense in the period in which it is incurred.
(b)
Business combinations not under common control
Bright Shining Group applies the acquisition method to account for business
combinations with parties that are not under common control. The consideration
transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred,
the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued
by the Bright Shining Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any
asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets
acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination
are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Bright Shining Group
recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition
basis, either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the
recognized amounts of acquiree’s identifiable net assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying
value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is re-measured to
fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement
are recognized in profit or loss.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the Bright Shining Group is
recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of
the contingent consideration that is deemed to be an asset or liability is recognized in
accordance with HKAS 39 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive
income. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured, and its
subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.
The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling
interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest
in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as
goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognized
and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the
subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognized directly
in the income statement.
Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between
group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated. When necessary,
amounts reported by subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform with the Bright Shining
Group’s accounting policies.
— II-152 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(c)
Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control
Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control
are accounted for as equity transactions – that is, as transactions with the owners of
the subsidiary in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any
consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying amount of net assets
of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling
interests are also recorded in equity.
(d)
Disposal of subsidiaries
When the Bright Shining Group ceases to have control, any retained interest in the
entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in
carrying amount recognized in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount
for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate,
joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in other
comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Bright Shining
Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that
amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or
loss.
3.3.2 Separate financial statements
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment. Cost includes direct
attributable costs of investment. The results of subsidiaries are accounted for by the company on
the basis of dividend received and receivable.
Impairment testing of the investments in subsidiaries is required upon receiving a
dividend from these investments if the dividend exceeds the total comprehensive income of the
subsidiary in the period the dividend is declared or if the carrying amount of the investment
in the separate financial statements exceeds the carrying amount in the combined financial
information of the investee’s net assets including goodwill.
3.4
Foreign currency translation
(a)
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Bright Shining Group’s
entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the
entity operates (the “functional currency”). The combined financial statements are presented
in Renminbi (“RMB”), which is the Company’s functional and the Bright Shining Group’s
presentation currency.
(b)
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the
exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the
translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognized in the combined income statement.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents
are presented in the income statement within “finance income or cost”. All other foreign
exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement within “other gains/(losses) –
net”.
— II-153 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency
classified as available-for-sale are analyzed between translation differences resulting from
changes in the amortized cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the
security. Translation differences related to changes in amortized cost are recognized in profit or
loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities, such as equity
instruments held at fair value through profit or loss, are recognized in profit or loss as part of the
fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary items such as equities classified
as available-for-sale financial assets are included in other comprehensive income.
(c)
Group companies
The results and financial position of all the group entities (none of which has the currency
of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation
currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
3.5
(i)
assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing
rate at the date of that balance sheet;
(ii)
income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange
rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative
effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and
expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and
(iii)
all resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to
the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset,
as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow
to the Bright Shining Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of
the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the combined income
statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to
allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Machineries
Vehicles
Office equipment
Electronic equipment
8
8
5
3
years
years
years
years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each
balance sheet date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if
the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount (Note 3.6).
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amounts.
These are recognized within “other gains/(losses) — net”, in the combined income statement.
— II-154 —
APPENDIX II
3.6
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets that have an indefinite useful life or are not yet available for use are not subject to
amortization and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not
be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount
exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs
to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels
for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other
than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each
reporting date.
3.7
Financial assets
3.7.1Classification
The Bright Shining Group classifies its financial assets into financial assets at fair
value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, and available-for-sale financial assets. The
classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management
determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition and re-evaluates this
designation at every reporting date.
(a)
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for
trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the
purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading
unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current
assets if expected to be settled within 12 months; otherwise, they are classified as noncurrent.
(b)
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or
determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in
current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the
reporting period, which are classified as non-current assets. The Bright Shining Group’s
loans and receivables comprise “other receivables” and “cash and cash equivalents” in the
balance sheet (Note 3.10 and 3.11).
(c)
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated
in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in
non-current assets unless the investment matures or management intends to dispose of it
within 12 months of the end of the reporting period.
3.7.2 Recognition and measurement
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on trade-date, the date
on which the Bright Shining Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially
recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value
through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially
recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the combined income statement.
— II-155 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments
have expired or have been transferred and the Bright Shining Group has transferred substantially
all risks and rewards of ownership. Available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently carried at
fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective
interest method.
Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the “financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss” category are presented in the income statement within “other gains/(losses)
– net” in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss is recognized in the income statement as part of other income when the
Bright Shining Group’s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of monetary and non-monetary securities classified as availablefor-sale are recognized in other comprehensive income.
When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair
value adjustments recognized in equity are included in the combined income statement as part of
“other gains/(losses) – net”.
Interests on available-for-sale securities calculated using the effective interest method are
recognized in the combined income statement as part of other income. Dividends on availablefor-sale equity instruments are recognized in the combined income statement as part of other
income when the Bright Shining Group’s right to receive payments is established.
3.8
Impairment of financial assets
(a)
Assets carried at amortized cost
The Bright Shining Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there
is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial
asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is
objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial
recognition of the asset (a “loss event”) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the
estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably
estimated.
Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors
is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal
payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization, and
where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash
flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
For loans and receivables category, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference
between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows
(excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s
original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of
the loss is recognized in the combined income statement. If a loan or held-to-maturity investment
has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current
effective interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Bright Shining
Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable
market price.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease
can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized (such as an
improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognized impairment
loss is recognized in the combined income statement.
— II-156 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(b)
Assets classified as available-for-sale
The Bright Shining Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there
is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. For debt
securities, the Bright Shining Group uses the criteria referred to (a) above. In the case of equity
investments classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value
of the security below its cost is also evidence that the assets are impaired. If any such evidence
exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss — measured as the difference
between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial
asset previously recognized in profit or loss — is removed from equity and recognized in the
combined income statement. Impairment losses recognized in the combined income statement on
equity instruments are not reversed through the combined income statement. If, in a subsequent
period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available-for-sale increases and the
increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized
in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through the combined income statement.
3.9Inventories
(a)
Properties under development
Properties under development are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value.
Net realizable value is determined by reference to estimated sales proceeds of the properties
sold in the ordinary course of business less costs to complete development and estimated selling
expenses.
Development costs of properties comprises land use rights, construction costs, borrowing
costs and professional fees as incurred during the development period. On completion, all
development costs of the properties are transferred to completed properties held for sale.
(b)
Completed properties held for sale
Completed properties held for sale are completed properties remaining unsold at the
balance sheet date and are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable values. Cost comprises
development costs attributable to the unsold properties. Net realizable values is determined
by reference to the sale proceeds of properties sold in the ordinary course of business, less
applicable variable selling expenses, or by management estimates based on prevailing marketing
conditions.
3.10
Other receivables
If collection of other receivables is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle
of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current
assets.
Other receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized
cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment.
3.11
Cash and cash equivalents
In the combined cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits
held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three
months or less.
— II-157 —
APPENDIX II
3.12
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Combined capital
As the financial information has been prepared on a combined basis, the combined capital in the
combined financial information represents the parent’s net investment in the Bright Shining Group.
3.13
Trade payables
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the
ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if
payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If
not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade payables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost
using the effective interest method.
3.14
Borrowings and Borrowing costs
Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings
are subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs)
and the redemption value is recognized in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using
the effective interest method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Bright Shining Group has an
unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.
General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or
production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get
ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are
substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment
of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing
costs eligible for capitalization. All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period
in which they are incurred.
3.15
Current and deferred income tax
The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred income tax. Tax is recognized in the
income statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income
or directly in equity. In this case the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity, respectively.
3.15.1 Current income tax
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the country where the Bright Shining’s
subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions
taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to
interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to
be paid to the tax authorities.
— II-158 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
3.15.2 Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences
arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the combined
financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the
initial recognition of goodwill, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from
initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination
that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred
income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax
asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future
taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred income tax liabilities are provided on taxable temporary differences arising
from investments in subsidiaries, except for deferred income tax liability where the timing of the
reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Bright Shining Group and it is probable
that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Generally the Bright
Shining Group is unable to control the reversal of the temporary difference for associates. Only
where there is an agreement in place that gives the Bright Shining Group the ability to control
the reversal of the temporary difference not recognized.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized on deductible temporary differences arising
from investments in subsidiaries only to the extent that it is probable the temporary difference
will reverse in the future and there is sufficient taxable profit available against which the
temporary difference can be utilized.
3.15.3 Offsetting
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable
right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes
assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the
taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a
net basis.
3.16
Employee benefits
(a)
Employee leave entitlements
Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognized when they accrue to employees. A
provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by
employee up to the balance sheet date. Employee entitlements to sick leave and maternity leave
are not recognized until the time of leave.
(b)
Bonus entitlements
Expected costs of bonus payments are recognized as liabilities when constructive
obligations are present, as a result of services rendered by employees and reliable estimations of
the obligations can be made.
— II-159 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(c)
Retirement benefits
In accordance with the rules and regulations in the PRC, the PRC based employees of the
Bright Shining Group participate in various defined contribution retirement plans organized by
the relevant municipal and provincial governments in the PRC under which the Bright Shining
Group and the PRC based employees are required to make monthly contributions to these plans
calculated as a percentage of the employees’ salaries.
The municipal and provincial governments undertake to assume the retirement benefit
obligations of all existing and future retired PRC based employees payable under the plans
described above. Other than the monthly contributions, the Bright Shining Group has no further
obligation for the payment of retirement and other post retirement benefits of its employees. The
assets of these plans are held separately from those of the Bright Shining Group in independently
administrated funds managed by the PRC government.
The Bright Shining Group’s contributions to the defined contribution retirement schemes
are expensed as incurred.
3.17Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Bright Shining Group has a present legal or constructive
obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle
the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future
operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required
in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized
even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of
obligations may be small.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to
settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is
recognized as interest expense.
3.18
Revenue recognition
Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods
and services in the ordinary course of the Bright Shining Group’s activities. Revenue is shown, net of
returns, discounts and after eliminating sales within the Bright Shining Group.
The Bright Shining Group recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably
measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and when specific criteria
have been met for each of the Bright Shining Group’s activities as described below. The Bright
Shining Group bases its estimates on historical results, the type of transaction and the specifics of each
arrangement.
(a)
Sale of properties
Revenue from sales of properties is recognized when the risks and rewards of the
properties transferred to the purchaser, which is when the construction of the relevant properties
have been completed and properties have been delivered to the purchaser pursuant to the
sale agreements, and collectability of related receivables is reasonably assured. Deposits and
instalments received on properties sold prior to the date of revenue recognition are included
in current liabilities, and are separately stated in the balance sheet as advances receipts from
customers.
— II-160 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
(b)
Interest income
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. When a loan and
receivable is impaired, the Bright Shining Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable
amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of
the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income.
4.
Financial risk management
4.1
Financial risk factors
The Bright Shining Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk
(including foreign exchange risk, cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk), credit
risk and liquidity risk. The Bright Shining Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the
unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Bright
Shining Group’s financial performance. The board of directors reviews and approves policies for
managing each of these risks and they are summarized below.
(a)
Market risk
(i)
Foreign exchange risk
The operations and majority of the Bright Shining Group’s customers are located
in the PRC with most of the assets/liabilities and transactions denominated and settled in
RMB. As the commercial transactions settled in foreign currencies are not material, the
directors of the Bright Shining are of the view that the Bright Shining Group’s exposure
to foreign exchange risk would be immaterial.
(ii)
Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
As the Bright Shining Group has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Bright
Shining Group’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of
changes in market interest rates.
The Bright Shining Group’s interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings
with prevailing market interest rates. Such risk is partly offset by cash at banks held at
prevailing market interest rates. During the Relevant Periods, the Bright Shining Group’s
borrowings at prevailing market interest rates were denominated in RMB.
The Bright Shining Group currently does not utilize any derivative contracts to
hedge its exposure to interest rate risk. However, management will consider hedging
significant interest rate exposure should the need arise.
The directors of the Bright Shining consider that the fluctuation in interest rate
has no material impact on the Group’s post-tax profit for the Relevant Periods as most of
interest expenses were capitalized.

(b)
Credit risk
Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, other receivables. The carrying amounts
of cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, represent the Bright Shining Group’s maximum
exposure to credit risk in relation to its financial assets.
To manage such exposure, the Bright Shining Group has policies in place to ensure that
sales are made to purchasers with appropriate financial strengths and credit history, at the same
time appropriate percentages of down payments are made. Deposits are placed with banks with
appropriate credit ratings. Monitoring procedures are also in place to ensure that follow-up action
is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Bright Shining Group reviews and assesses
the recoverable amount of each individual trade receivables on a regular basis to ensure that
adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. The Bright Shining Group has
no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a number of counterparties
and customers.
(c)
Liquidity risk
Cash flow forecast by the Bright Shining Group and the Bright Shining Group monitors
rolling forecasts of the Bright Shining Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient
cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed
borrowing facilities at all times so that the group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants
(where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecast takes into consideration the
Bright Shining Group’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with internal
balance sheet ratio Targets.
As at 31 December 2011, 2012 and 2013, the Bright Shining Group held cash and cash
equivalents of RMB333,000, RMB1,332,000 and RMB2,256,000 (Note 10) and other receivables
of RMB1,000, RMB5,000 and RMB54,000 (Note 9) that are expected to readily generate cash
inflows for managing liquidity risk.

Capital risk management
The Bright Shining Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Bright
Shining Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and
benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Bright Shining Group may adjust the
amount of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
Consistent with others in the industry, the Bright Shining Group monitors capital on the basis of
the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as
total borrowings (including current and non-current borrowings as shown in the combined balance sheet)
less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as “equity” as shown in the combined balance
sheet plus net debt.

As at respective balance sheet dates, Bright Shining has gearing ratio of over 95%, which created
doubt about the Bright Shining Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The directors of Bright
Shining have prepared cash flow projections by taking into account the financial resources available
to Bright Shining Group which mainly includes cash generated from operating activities. In addition,
subsequent to 31 December 2013, borrowings from a fellow subsidiary amounting to RMB1,170,434,000
were replaced by long term entrusted loans (see Note 22). On this basis, the directors of the Company
believe that Bright Shining Group will have sufficient financial resources for its operations at least for
the next twelve months from 31 December 2013.
5.
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The Bright Shining Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting
accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a
significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next
financial year are discussed below.
(a)
Income taxes and land appreciation tax (“LAT”)
The Bright Shining Group is primarily subject to various PRC taxes, as it is principally engaged
in property development in the PRC. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for
income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is
uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Bright Shining recognizes liabilities for anticipated
tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome
of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact
the income tax and deferred income tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
The implementation and settlement of LAT varies among various tax jurisdictions in cities
of the PRC. LAT is levied at progressive rates ranging from 30% to 60% on the appreciation of land
value, being the proceeds from sales of properties less deductible expenditures including land use rights,
borrowing costs, business taxes, property development and other related expenditures. These taxes are
incurred upon transfer of property ownership.
— II-164 —
APPENDIX II
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE FUND and the target group
Significant judgment is required in determining the extent of land
taxes. The Bright Shining Group recognized LAT based on management’s
the understanding of the tax rules. The final tax outcome could be different
initially recorded, and these differences will impact the combined income
which such taxes are finalized with local tax authorities.
(b)
appreciation and its related
best estimates according to
from the amounts that were
statement in the periods in
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax assets relating to certain temporary differences and tax losses are recognized
when management considers it probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the
temporary differences or tax losses can be utilized. The outcome of their actual utilization may be
different.
(c)
Estimations for total properties construction cost
The Bright Shining Group estimates properties construction cost upon recognition of respective
costs of sales. Such estimates are substantiated by detailed budgetary information as developed by the
management, and will be assessed periodically, as the constructions progress. Should these estimates
depart from their actual finalized costs, such differences would affect the accuracy of costs of sales
recognized.
(d)
Estimated impairment of assets
The Bright Shining Group tests at least annually whether assets have suffered any impairment
in accordance with the accounting policies stated in Note 3.6. Assets are also reviewed for impairment,
whenever events or changes in circumstances that may cause the carrying amounts of the assets to exceed
their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash generating unit is determined as
the higher of cash generating unit’s fair value less cost to sell and its value-in-use which requires the use
of assumptions and estimates.

Gross Profit
For the nine months ended 30 September 2014, the Target Group recorded gross profit of
approximately RMB20 million (nine months ended 30 September 2013: approximately RMB306

and Grand Canal Milestone (Hangzhou) during the period.
Selling and marketing expenses
Selling and marketing expenses mainly represented the advertisement and marketing
fees. For the nine months ended 30 September 2014, the Target Group recorded the selling and
marketing expenses of approximately RMB93 million (nine months period ended 30 September
2013: approximately RMB111 million). Decrease in selling and marketing expenses was mainly
due to cost control measures related to property development projects during the period.

nine months ended 30 September 2014, the Target Group recorded the administrative expenses
of approximately RMB49 million (nine months ended 30 September 2013: approximately

million). Decrease in taxation was mainly due to decrease in operating profit during the period

HK$’000
Capital Commitment to the General Partner (note (a))

its capital commitment by US$250 million (equivalent to approximately
HK$1,939 million) to subscribe the limited partner interests in the Fund.

Dear Sirs,
Re: Portfolio Valuation
Instructions, Purpose &
Date of Valuation
In accordance with the instructions from Gemini Investments (Holdings)
Limited (the “Company”) and Sino Prosperity Real Estate Fund L.P. for
us to value the properties set out in this letter in which Sino-Ocean Land
Holdings Limited (“Sino-Ocean Land”) and its subsidiaries (hereinafter
together referred to as the “Sino-Ocean Land Group”) have interests in
the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), we confirm that we have
inspected the properties, made relevant enquiries and obtained such
further information as we consider necessary to provide you with our
opinion of the values of such properties as at 30 September 2014 (the
“date of valuation”).
Basis of Valuation
Our valuation of each of the properties represents its market value
which in accordance with The HKIS Valuation Standards (2012 Edition)
published by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors is defined as “the
estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on
the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an
arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing and where the parties had
each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion”.
— IV-1 —
Appendix IV
Valuation Assumptions
Property Valuation report oN THE PROPERTIES
Our valuations exclude an estimated price inflated or deflated by special
terms or circumstances such as atypical financing, sale and leaseback
arrangement, special considerations or concessions granted by anyone
associated with the sale, or any element of special value.
In valuing the properties, we have complied with the requirements set out
in Chapter 5 and Practice Note 12 of the Rules Governing the Listing of
Securities published by The Stock Exchange of the Hong Kong Limited
and The HKIS Valuation Standards (2012 Edition) published by the Hong
Kong Institute of Surveyors.
Unless otherwise stated, in the course of our valuation of the properties
in the PRC, we have assumed that the transferable land use rights of
the properties for their respective terms at nominal annual land use fees
have been granted and that any premium payable has already been fully
paid. We have relied on the information regarding the title to each of
the properties and the interests of the Sino-Ocean Land Group in the
properties. In valuing the properties, we have assumed that the SinoOcean Land Group has an enforceable title to each of the properties and
has free and uninterrupted rights to use, occupy or assign the properties
for the whole of the respective unexpired land use term as granted.
No allowance has been made in our valuations for any charges,
mortgages or amounts owing on the properties nor for any expenses or
taxation which may be incurred in effecting a sale. Unless otherwise
stated, it is assumed that the properties are free from encumbrances,
restrictions and outgoings of an onerous nature which could affect their
values.
Method of Valuation
We have mainly adopted Direct Comparison Approach by making
reference to comparable sale evidences as available on the market.
Regarding the properties which are currently held by the Sino-Ocean
Land Group under development, we have valued on the basis that each
property will be developed and completed in accordance with the SinoOcean Land Group’s latest development proposals provided to us. We
have assumed that all consents, approvals and licences from relevant
government authorities for the development proposals have been obtained
without onerous conditions or delays. We have also assumed that the
design and construction of the development are in compliance with
the local planning regulations and have been approved by the relevant
authorities. The development value of the property when completed
represents our opinion of the aggregate value of the development
assuming it would have been completed at the date of valuation. In
arriving at the final value of the property in existing state, we have also
taken into account the construction costs expended and the costs that will
be expended to reflect the quality of the completed development.
Given the nature of the properties, mostly being residential units,
ancillary retail podium units and car parking spaces, sales activities are
frequent and thus sales evidence are readily available, Direct Comparison
Approach is therefore used in the valuations which is in line with the
market practice.

Appendix IV
Source of Information
Property Valuation report oN THE PROPERTIES
We have not been provided by the Sino-Ocean Land Group with any title
documents of the properties. However, we have been provided by the
Sino-Ocean Land Group with fundamental information for carrying out
the valuations. However, we have not inspected the original documents
to ascertain any amendments which may not appear on the copies handed
to us.
In the course of our valuation, we have relied to a very considerable
extent on the information given to us by the Sino-Ocean Land Group
or the Company’s legal adviser, Fenxun Law Office ( 奮 迅 律 師 事 務
所 ) regarding the title to each of the properties and the interests of the
Sino-Ocean Land Group in the properties in respect of the properties
in the PRC and have accepted advice given by the Sino-Ocean Land
Group on such matters as planning approvals or statutory notices,
easements, tenure, identification of land and buildings, completion date
of buildings, number of units, particulars of occupancy, development
scheme, construction costs, tenancy details, site and floor areas, interest
attributable to the Sino-Ocean Land Group and all other relevant matters.
Dimensions, measurements and areas included in the valuations are based
on information provided to us and are therefore only approximations. We
have had no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information
provided to us by the Sino-Ocean Land Group which is material to the
valuations. We were also advised by the Sino-Ocean Land Group that no
material facts have been omitted from the information provided.
Title Investigation
We have not been provided with any title documents relating to the titles
of the properties in the PRC, and no searches have been made in respect
of the properties. We have not searched the original documents to verify
ownership or to ascertain any amendment which may not appear on the
information handed to us. We are also unable to ascertain the title of the
properties in the PRC and we have therefore relied on the advice given
by the Sino-Ocean Land Group regarding the Sino-Ocean Land Group’s
interests in the properties.

Site Inspection
Property Valuation report oN THE PROPERTIES
Delly Chen, Zien Ding, David Zhu, Huiqiu Yin, Kevin Xu, Amy
Zhang, Chelsea Liu and Jeffery Wang, ranking from Assistant Valuer
to Manager, inspected the exterior and, whenever possible, the interior
of the properties between October and November 2014. However, we
have not carried out any soil investigations to determine the suitability
of the soil conditions and the services etc. for any future development.
Our valuations are prepared on the assumption that these aspects are
satisfactory and that no extraordinary expenses or delays will be incurred
during the construction period. Moreover, no structural survey has been
made, but in the course of our inspection, we did not note any serious
defects. We are, however, not able to report that the properties are free
of rot, infestation or other structural defects. No test was carried out on
any of the services. Our valuations are prepared on the assumption that
these aspects are satisfactory.
Unless otherwise stated, we have not been able to carry out on-site
measurements to verify the site and floor areas of the properties and we
have assumed that the areas shown on the documents handed to us are
correct.
Currency
Unless otherwise stated, all money amounts indicated herein our
valuations are in Renminbi (“RMB”) which is the official currency of the
PRC.
We enclose herewith a summary of valuations and our valuation certificates.
Yours faithfully,
For and on behalf of
