To the Shareholders

Dear Sir or Madam,

  1. VERY SUBSTANTIAL ACQUISITION AND CONNECTED TRANSACTION IN RELATION TO ACQUISITION OF A PROPERTY GROUP; AND
  2. CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS IN RELATION TO

REVISION OF ANNUAL CAPS

INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to (i) the announcement of the Company dated 27 September 2019 in relation to the acquisition of the entire issued share capital of the Target Company by the Group; (ii) the announcement of the Company dated 6 August 2019 in relation to the provision of the Services by Fujian BE and/or its subsidiaries to the Group; and (iii) the announcement of the Company dated 22 November 2019 in relation to the revision of the Existing Annual Caps.

On 27 September 2019 (after trading hours of the Stock Exchange), the Purchaser, (a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) and the Vendor entered into the Agreement, pursuant to which the Purchaser has conditionally agreed to acquire and the Vendor (the

- 7 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

controlling Shareholder) has conditionally agreed to sell the Sale Shares at the Consideration. The Sale Shares represent the entire issued share capital of the Target Company which is engaged in property development projects in the PRC through its subsidiaries upon completion of the Reorganisation. The Acquisition constitutes a very substantial acquisition for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules as certain percentage ratios (as defined under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules) exceed 100%.

On 6 August 2019, the Company entered into the Master Agreement with Fujian BE, pursuant to which Fujian BE and/or its subsidiaries agreed to provide the supporting services in showrooms (i.e. the Services) to property projects owned by the Group for a term from 6 August 2019 to 31 December 2021 (both days inclusive). In view that the development schedule of certain property projects owned by the Group were accelerated and two property projects acquired by the Group since 6 August 2019 were not taken into account in determining the Existing Annual Caps (the "Existing Business Needs"), the Company proposes to increase the Existing Annual Caps to Revised Annual Caps I. In addition, as the Project Companies in relation to the Acquisition have been engaging Fujian BE and its subsidiaries to provide the Services to their respective property projects, upon Completion, it is expected that the Existing Annual Caps will not be sufficient to cover the Services required by the Target Group from 2020 onwards (the "Acquisition Need"). As such, the Company further proposes to increase the Existing Annual Caps to Revised Annual Caps II to cover the Existing Business Needs and the Acquisition Need. On 22 November 2019 (after trading hours of the Stock Exchange), the Company and Fujian BE entered into the Supplemental Agreement to amend the Existing Annual Caps to the Revised Annual Caps under the Master Agreement. Save for the revision of the Existing Annual Caps, all other terms and conditions under the Master Agreement remain unchanged. Given Fujian BE is a connected person of the Company, the transactions contemplated under the Master Agreement as amended by the Supplemental Agreement constitute connected transactions for the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with (i) details of the Agreement;

  1. details of the Master Agreement (as amended by Supplemental Agreement); (iii) letter of recommendation from the Independent Board Committee to the Independent Shareholders;

(iv) letter of advice from Crescendo to the Independent Board Committee and the

Independent

Shareholders;

(v)

financial

information

the

Group;

  1. financial information of the Target Group; (vii) unaudited pro forma financial information of the Enlarged Group; (viii) valuation report; (ix) notice convening the EGM; and (x) other information as required under the Listing Rules for the purpose of considering and approving the Agreement, the Master Agreement (as amended by the Supplement Agreement) and the transactions contemplated thereunder.
  1. ACQUISITION OF A PROPERTY GROUP

    Date:

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Parties:

Purchaser:

Total Prestige Holdings Limited (全耀控股有限公司), a direct

wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company

Vendor :

Mega Regal

Mega Regal was the controlling Shareholder holding 296,348,127 Shares (representing approximately 70.71% of the issued share capital of the Company) as at the Latest Practicable Date, and therefore a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Mega Regal was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands with limited liability and principally engaged in investment holding. The ultimate beneficial owner of Mega Regal is Mr. Lin, the Chairman of the Board and an executive Director.

Subject Matter

The Sale Shares represent the entire issued share capital of the Target Company, which was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on 31 May 2019. Following completion of the Reorganisation, the Target Company held the Project Companies principally engaged in property development projects in the PRC. Further information on the Project Companies is set out in the section headed "Information on the Target Group" below.

Consideration

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Consideration of HK$231.0 million shall be payable to the Vendor by way of issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares, being 22,000,000 new Shares, at the issue price of HK$10.5 per Consideration Share, by the Company to the Vendor on Completion Date.

The Consideration was determined based on 95% of the valuation surplus derived from (a) the preliminary valuation of the properties held by the Project Companies of RMB9,505.0 million (equivalent to approximately HK$10,561.1 million) applied with a discount of approximately 8.8% as agreed by the parties to the Agreement; and (b) the book value of the properties held by the Project Companies as at 31 May 2019 of approximately RMB8,452.0 million (equivalent to approximately HK$9,391.1 million), having considered that the net asset value of the Target Group as at Completion (before taking into account the valuation surplus) will be close to zero after a dividend of RMB50.0 million (equivalent to approximately HK$55.6 million) is to be distributed by Xiamen Sansheng to its original owner, namely Fuzhou Sansheng, which is indirectly held by Mr. Lin and Ms. Cheng and for the purpose of the Reorganisation, the Project Companies are to be sold to the Newco by Fuzhou Sansheng at its net asset value (i.e. RMB52.4 million (equivalent to approximately HK$58.2 million)), which is to be fully settled by offsetting the Inter-Company Loans owing by Fuzhou Sansheng to the Target Group.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Consideration Shares

The Consideration Shares to be allotted and issued at the issue price of HK$10.5 per Consideration Share represents:

  1. a discount of approximately 0.9% to the closing price of HK$10.60 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the date of the Agreement;
  2. the same price as the average closing price of approximately HK$10.50 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of the Agreement;
  3. a premium of approximately 9.6% over the closing price of HK$9.58 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date; and
  4. a premium of approximately 255.9% over the unaudited consolidated net asset value per Share of approximately HK$2.95 (based on the unaudited equity attributable to the Shareholders of approximately RMB1,112.9 million (equivalent to approximately to HK$1,236.6 million) as at 30 June 2019 as disclosed in the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2019 and 419,114,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date).

The issue price was determined after arm's length negotiations between the Purchaser and the Vendor, with reference to the recent price performance of the Shares and current market conditions.

The Consideration Shares also represent:

  1. approximately 5.2% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date; and
  2. approximately 5.0% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares.

The allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares will not result in a change of control of the Company.

The Consideration Shares will be issued under the specific mandate to be sought from the Independent Shareholders at the EGM. The Consideration Shares, when allotted and issued, shall rank pari passu in all respects with the outstanding Shares in issue on the date of the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares.

Application for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consideration Shares to be allotted and issued pursuant to the Agreement will be made by the Company to the Stock Exchange.

In 2017 and 2018, the pre-sold units of Zhangzhou Deyousheng were gradually delivered to customers and revenue in relation to the sale of these pre-sold units was recognised for FY2017 and FY2018. As most of the delivery of pre-sold units of the Project Companies took place on or before 2018, revenue of the Target Group for the five months ended 31 May 2019 reduced significantly and led to a net loss of the Target Group for the five months ended 31 May 2019.

The net asset value of the Target Group attributable to equity shareholders was approximately RMB101.3 million (equivalent to approximately HK$112.6 million) as at 31 May 2019. The total investment cost of the Vendor in the Target Group was approximately RMB553.5 million (equivalent to approximately HK$615.0 million).

REASONS AND BENEFITS OF THE AGREEMENT

The Group is principally engaged in property development and sale, and property investment. As disclosed in the 2018 annual report of the Company, it is the strategy of the Group to identify land in prime locations suitable for property development and investment in order to increase its land reserve and further promote development of the Group. To this end, the Group has acquired land plots in different cities in the PRC through acquisitions and land biddings. As at 30 June 2019, the Group had a total of 15 ongoing property development projects with a total site area of over 796,500 sq.m..

As mentioned in the section headed "Information on the Target Group" above, the property projects owned by the Project Companies are located in Fujian Province. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of the PRC, the average selling price of residential units in Fujian Province increased from approximately RMB6,100 per sq.m. in 2011 to approximately RMB9,300 per sq.m. in 2018, representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 6.2%. Besides, the Group had pre-sale of 3 property projects located in Fujian Province during the first half of 2019 and all of them recorded promising results.

Based on the above, the Directors are confident with the sustainable development of the property market in Fujian Province and has commenced to negotiate with the Vendor in May 2019 for acquisition of potential property projects to supplement the land reserve of the Group in Fujian Province. The property projects under the Target Group are currently under construction and are expected to complete within three years, whereas other property projects owned by private group of the Vendor (as set out in the section headed "Directors' interest in competing business" in Appendix V to this circular) (i) have completed the sale and delivery of most of the property units built; (ii) have limited room for further development due to stipulated plot ratios; or (iii) require consent of joint venture partners in relation to any transfer. Accordingly, the Directors are of the view that the acquisition of the Target Group provides a good opportunity for the Group to supplement the land reserve in Fujian Province. The Group had no intention to acquire other property projects in Fujian Province owned by Mr. Lin as at the Latest Practicable Date. The Directors are also of the view that the terms of the Acquisition are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE ACQUISITION

Immediately upon Completion, the Target Company will become an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The financial statements of the Target Group will be consolidated into the financial statements of the Group. Based on the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Enlarged Group set out in Appendix III to this circular, the financial effects of the Acquisition are summarised below:

Earnings

As extracted from the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2018, the loss attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company was approximately RMB166.5 million. As set out in Appendix III to this circular, assuming Completion had taken place on 1 January 2018, the unaudited pro forma net loss attributable to the equity shareholders of the Enlarged Group for the year ended 31 December 2018 would decrease to approximately RMB149.5 million.

Net assets

As extracted from the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2019, the unaudited consolidated total assets and total liabilities of the Group were approximately RMB11,467.8 million and RMB10,290.0 million respectively. The unaudited net asset value attributable to Shareholders as at 30 June 2019 was approximately RMB1,112.9 million. As set out in Appendix III to this circular, assuming Completion had taken place on 30 June 2019, the unaudited pro forma consolidated total assets and total liabilities of the Enlarged Group would increase to approximately RMB20,983.8 million and RMB19,804.1 million respectively. The unaudited pro forma net asset value attributable to equity shareholders of the Enlarged Group would decrease to approximately RMB1,110.3 million.

Gearing

As extracted from the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2019, the gearing ratio of the Group, calculated with reference to total liabilities of approximately RMB10,290.0 million and the Group's total equity attributable to the Shareholders of approximately RMB1,112.9 million, was 9.2 as at 30 June 2019. As set out in Appendix III to this circular, assuming the Completion had taken place on 30 June 2019, the gearing ratio of the Enlarged Group upon Completion would be 17.8.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

As certain percentage ratios (as defined under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules) in respect of the Acquisition exceed 100%, the Acquisition constitutes a very substantial acquisition for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and therefore is subject to reporting, announcement and Shareholders' approval requirements. In addition, given the Vendor was the controlling Shareholder holding 296,348,127 Shares (representing approximately 70.71% of the issued share capital of the Company) as at the Latest Practicable Date, the Vendor was therefore a connected person of the

- 21 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Company. Accordingly, the Acquisition also constitutes a connected transaction of the Company and is subject to the reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. The Consideration Shares will be issued under a specific mandate of the Company under the Listing Rules.

As such, the Company further proposes to increase the Existing Annual Caps to Revised Annual Caps II to cover the Existing Business Needs and the Acquisition Need. On 22 November 2019 (after trading hours of the Stock Exchange), the Company and Fujian BE entered into the Supplemental Agreement to amend the Existing Annual Caps to the Revised Annual Caps under the Master Agreement. Save for the revision of the Existing Annual Caps, all other terms and conditions under the Master Agreement remain unchanged.

In view that the development schedule of certain property projects owned by the Group were accelerated and two property projects acquired by the Group since 6 August 2019 were not taken into account in determining the Existing Annual Caps, the Company proposes to increase the Existing Annual Caps to Revised Annual Caps I. In addition, as the Project Companies in relation to the Acquisition have been engaging Fujian BE and its subsidiaries to provide the Services to their respective property projects, upon Completion, it is expected that the Existing Annual Caps will not be sufficient to cover the Services required by the Target Group from 2020 onwards.

Mr. Lin, the Chairman of the Board and an executive Director and Ms. Cheng, an executive Director and the spouse of Mr. Lin, considered themselves having material interests in the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder by reason of Mr. Lin's ownership of Mega Regal and had abstained from voting on the Board resolution approving the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder. Also, Mr. Lin, Ms. Cheng and Mega Regal, considered themselves having material interests in the Master Agreement as amended by the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder by virtue of their interests and/or directorship in Fujian BE and had abstained from voting on the Board resolution approving the Master Agreement as amended by the Supplemental Agreement and transactions contemplated thereunder (including the Revised Annual Caps). Given the ultimate beneficial owner of Mega Regal is Mr. Lin and Mega Regal is the Vendor of the Sale Shares, Mega Regal will also be required to abstain from voting on the proposed resolution in the EGM. The voting in relation to the aforesaid resolution to be proposed at

Dear Sirs,

VERY SUBSTANTIAL ACQUISITION AND CONNECTED TRANSACTION

IN RELATION TO ACQUISITION OF A PROPERTY GROUP; AND CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSATIONS IN RELATION TO REVISION OF ANNUAL CAPS

INTRODUCTION

We refer to our engagement as the independent financial adviser to advise the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders with respect to the terms of the Acquisition contemplated under the Agreement and the continuing connected transactions contemplated under the Master Agreement (as amended by the Supplemental Agreement) (the "Continuing Connected Transactions"), details of which are set out in the Letter from the Board contained in the circular of the Company dated 25 November 2019 to the Shareholders (the "Circular"), of which this letter forms part. Capitalized terms used in this letter have the same meanings as defined elsewhere in the Circular unless the context requires otherwise.

On 27 September 2019 (after trading hours of the Stock Exchange), the Purchaser (a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) and the Vendor (the controlling Shareholder) entered into the Agreement, pursuant to which the Purchaser has conditionally agreed to acquire, and the Vendor has conditionally agreed to sell, the Sale Shares, which represent the entire issued share capital of the Target Company, for the Consideration of HK$231.0 million, payable by issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares, being

- 32 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

22,000,000 new Shares, at the issue price of HK$10.5 per Consideration Share. The Consideration Shares will be issued under a specific mandate of the Company under the Listing Rules.

As certain percentage ratios (as defined under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules) in respect of the Acquisition exceed 100%, the Acquisition constitutes a very substantial acquisition for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and therefore is subject to the reporting, announcement and Shareholders' approval requirements. In addition, given the Vendor was the controlling Shareholder which held 296,348,127 Shares, representing approximately 70.71% of the issued share capital of the Company, as at the Latest Practicable Date, the Vendor is therefore a connected person of the Company. Accordingly, the Acquisition also constitutes a connected transaction for the Company and is subject to the reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

On 22 November 2019, (after trading hours of the Stock Exchange), the Company and Fujian BE entered into the Supplemental Agreement to increase the Existing Annual Caps for the Services under the Master Agreement to the Revised Annual Caps so as to cope with the Existing Business Needs and the Acquisition Need (as defined below).

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Fujian BE was owned as to (i) 63.01% by Fujian JMK, which was owned as to 41.10% by Mr. Lin and 9.90% by Ms. Cheng; and (ii) 18.00% by Xiamen BS, which was owned as to 56.00% by Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin and Ms. Cheng are directors of Fujian BE, and Mr. Lin is an executive Director and is interested in total of 296,348,127 Shares through Mega Regal, representing approximately 70.71% of the issued share capital of the Company. Ms. Cheng is an executive Director and the spouse of Mr. Lin. As such, Fujian BE is a connected person of the Company and the provision of the Services constitute continuing connected transactions for the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

As at least one of the applicable percentage ratios in respect of the Revised Annual Caps exceed 5%, the Master Agreement as amended by the Supplemental Agreement and transactions contemplated thereunder (including the Revised Annual Caps) shall be subject to the reporting, announcement, annual review and Independent Shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

The EGM will be convened and held for the purpose of considering and, if thought fit, approving, by way of poll, the resolutions in respect of (i) the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder, including the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares; and (ii) the Master Agreement as amended by the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder, including the Revised Annual Caps. Given the ultimate beneficial owner of Mega Regal, being the Vendor of the Sale Shares, is Mr. Lin, the Chairman of the Board and an executive Director, Mega Regal will be required to abstain from voting on the proposed resolutions at the EGM.

The Independent Board Committee, comprising all independent non-executive Directors, namely Mr. Pan Dexiang, Mr. Yuan Chun and Mr. Zhong Bin, has been established to advise the Independent Shareholders in relation to (i) the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder; and (ii) the Master Agreement as amended by the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder (including the

- 33 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

Revised Annual Caps). We, Crescendo Capital Limited, have been appointed to advise the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in this regard, in particular as to whether (i) the terms of the Acquisition are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned, the Acquisition is on normal commercial terms and in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group as well as whether the Acquisition is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole; and (ii) the terms of the Master Agreement as amended by the Supplemental Agreement are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned, the Continuing Connected Transactions are on normal commercial terms and in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group as well as whether the Continuing Connected Transactions are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

We are not associated with the Group and its associates and do not have any shareholding in any member of the Group or right (whether legally enforceable or not) to subscribe for, or to nominate persons to subscribe for, securities in any member of the Group. Save for acting as an independent financial adviser in this appointment, we have not acted as a financial adviser or an independent financial adviser to the Company and its associates in the past two years from the date hereof. Apart from normal professional fees payable to us in connection with this appointment, no arrangements exist whereby we will receive any fee or benefit from the Group and its associates. We are not aware of any relationship or interest between us and the Company or any other parties that would be reasonably considered to affect our independence to act as an independent financial adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders.

BASIS OF OUR OPINION

In formulating our opinion and recommendation, we have relied on the information and representations supplied, and the opinions expressed, by the Directors and management of the Company and have assumed that such information and statements, and representations made to us or referred to in the Circular are true, accurate and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof and will continue as such at the date of the EGM. The Directors have collectively and individually accepted full responsibility for the Circular, including particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Group and having made all reasonable enquiries have confirmed that, to the best of their knowledge and belief, the information contained in the Circular is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement in the Circular misleading.

We consider that we have reviewed sufficient information to reach an informed view, to justify reliance on the accuracy of the information contained in the Circular and to provide a reasonable basis for our recommendation. We have no reasons to suspect that any material information has been withheld by the Directors or management of the Company, or is misleading, untrue or inaccurate, and consider that they may be relied upon in formulating our opinion. We have not, however, for the purposes of this exercise, conducted any independent detailed investigation or audit into the businesses or affairs or future prospects of the Group and the related subject of, and parties to, the Agreement and the Master Agreement (as supplemented by the Supplemental Agreement). Our opinion is necessarily based on the financial, economic, market and other conditions in effect and the information

made available to us as at the Latest Practicable Date. Shareholders should note that subsequent developments (including any material change in market and economic conditions) may affect and/or change this opinion.

For the year ended 31 December 2018

No revenues were recorded by the Group for the year ended 31 December 2017 as its investment properties remained vacant throughout the year. The revenue of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018 amounted to approximately RMB934.0 million, of which approximately 98.9% was derived from the sale of properties located in the West District and North District of Zhangqiu, Jinan, Shandong while the remaining revenue was contributed by the rental income generated from the commercial investment properties in Harbin and Qingdao. The gross profit of the Group amounted to approximately RMB55.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2018. In line with the substantial increase in the business scale of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018, the selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses increased by a total of approximately RMB65.3 million.

For the year ended 31 December 2018, the net valuation gain on investment properties decreased by approximately RMB32.1 million as compared to that for the year ended 31 December 2017. The Group's other income/loss, which mainly comprised net exchange gain/loss and fair value changes on listed equity securities, changed from a net gain of approximately RMB41.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 to a net loss of approximately RMB43.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2018. Such change was mainly attributable to the recognition of a net exchange loss of approximately RMB41.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2018 as a result of the appreciation of United State dollar against Renminbi in respect of the United State dollar bonds issued by the Company during the year, while a net exchange gain of approximately RMB12.2 million was recorded for the year ended 31 December 2017. In addition, the

- 36 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

Group recorded a mark-to-market unrealized fair value gain on the financial assets of approximately RMB29.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 while a mark-to-market unrealized fair value loss on the financial assets of approximately RMB10.6 million was recorded for the year ended 31 December 2018. Due to the aforementioned unfavorable market conditions, the Group recorded a loss from operations of approximately RMB103.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2018 as compared to a profit from operations of approximately RMB24.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2017. Being further impacted by the increase in finance costs of approximately RMB59.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2018, the Group's loss before taxation increased from approximately RMB11.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 to approximately RMB199.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2018. Loss attributable to owners of the Company also increased from approximately RMB16,000 for the year ended 31 December 2017 to approximately RMB166.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2018 after taking into account the tax credit recognized during the years.

For the six months ended 30 June 2019

The revenue of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2018 amounted to approximately RMB680.8 million, of which approximately 99.5% was derived from the sale of properties located in the West District of Zhangqiu, Jinan, Shandong while the remaining revenue was contributed by the rental income generated from the commercial investment properties in Harbin. Given that a majority of the Group's development projects were under construction or in the pre-sale stage and conditions to recognize revenue from sale of properties were not satisfied during the six months ended 30 June 2019, the revenue of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2019 decreased substantially to approximately RMB13.0 million as only rental income from the commercial investment properties in Harbin and Qingdao was recorded as revenue of the Group. The Group did not record any cost of sales for the six months ended 30 June 2019 as the pre-sale properties had not been delivered during the period. Therefore, the gross profit of the Group decreased by approximately RMB20.7 million from approximately RMB33.7 million for the six months ended 30 June 2018 to approximately RMB13.0 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019. With the continued expansion in the business scale of the Group and the launch of pre-sale marketing campaigns during the six months ended 30 June 2019, the selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses increased by a total of approximately RMB41.2 million.

For the six months ended 30 June 2019, the net valuation gain on investment properties amounted to approximately RMB3.8 million while no such gain/loss was recorded for the six months ended 30 June 2018. The Group's other income, which mainly comprised net exchange gain/loss, fair value changes on listed equity securities and fair value changes on derivative financial instruments, increased by approximately RMB2.5 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 as compared to the prior corresponding period. The Group recorded a loss from operations of approximately RMB55.1 million for the six months ended 30

- 37 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

June 2019 as compared to a profit from operations of approximately RMB1.0 million for the six months ended 30 June 2018. Notwithstanding a reduction in finance costs of approximately RMB23.6 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019, the loss before taxation increased from approximately RMB31.5 million for the six months ended 30 June 2018 to approximately RMB66.2 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019. Loss attributable to owners of the Company also increased from approximately RMB18.0 million for the six months ended 30 June 2018 to approximately RMB41.1 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 after taking into account the tax credit recognized during the period.

As at 30 June 2019, the non-current assets of the Group amounted to approximately RMB1,501.2 million, of which approximately RMB605.9 million were investment properties, approximately RMB110.3 million were properties under development, approximately RMB456.7 million were prepaid lease payments and approximately RMB288.8 million were interests in joint ventures. The current assets of the Group amounted to approximately RMB9,966.6 million as at 30 June 2019, which mainly consisted of inventories and other contract costs of approximately RMB9,076.5 million, trade and other receivables of approximately RMB380.7 million and cash and cash equivalents of approximately RMB468.3 million. The current liabilities of the Group as at 30 June 2019 amounted to approximately RMB5,559.2 million, which mainly comprised bank loans and borrowings from financial institutions of approximately RMB1,248.9 million, trade and other payables of approximately RMB2,868.9 million, contract liabilities of approximately RMB1,219.8 million and current taxation of approximately RMB220.5 million. As at 30 June 2019, the non-current liabilities of the Group amounted to approximately RMB4,730.8 million, which mainly comprised bank loans and borrowings from financial institutions of approximately RMB2,052.9 million, bond payable of approximately RMB898.9 million, loans from a related party of approximately RMB1,658.8 million and deferred tax liabilities of approximately RMB94.3 million. As at 30 June 2019, the net current assets of the Group amounted to approximately RMB4,407.4 million while the net assets attributable to the owners of the Company amounted to approximately RMB1,112.9 million. As at 30 June 2019, the current ratio, as expressed as current assets over current liabilities, was approximately 1.79 while the gearing ratio, as expressed as total liabilities over total assets, of the Group was approximately 0.90. In general, the Group is financially sound.

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

For the year ended 31 December 2018

The revenue of the Target Group for the years ended 31 December 2018 and 2017 was mainly derived from the sale of property units of Zhangzhou Deyousheng. The revenue of the Target Group for the year ended 31 December 2018 amounted to approximately RMB1,178.0 million, representing an increase of approximately 0.3% as compared to the last year. The gross profit of the Target Group also increased from approximately RMB306.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 to approximately RMB326.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2018. However, owing to the increases in selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses in an aggregate amount of approximately RMB40.7 million and the increase in penalty for default of approximately RMB13.3 million, the profit before taxation decreased by approximately RMB31.5 million from approximately RMB208.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 to approximately RMB176.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2018. Taking into account the income tax, the profit of the Target Group reduced by approximately RMB60.5 million to approximately RMB20.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2018.

For the five months ended 31 May 2019

The revenue of the Target Group for the five months ended 31 May 2019 amounted to approximately RMB39.8 million, representing a drop of approximately 85.2% as compared to the previous corresponding period. There was a substantial decrease in revenue because most of the pre-sold property units of the Target Group had been delivered to the customers on or before 2018. Accordingly, the gross profit of the Target Group also decreased significantly from approximately RMB150.5 million for the five months ended 31 May 2018 to approximately RMB26.0 million for the five months ended 31 May 2019. In spite of the reduction in sales activities, the selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses increased by a total of approximately RMB11.3 million for the five months ended 31 May 2019 as compared to the prior corresponding period. Such increase was mainly due to the acquisition of 90% equity interest in Fujian Tianren in September 2018, the expenses of which were consolidated into the results of the Target Group since then. In addition, other income of approximately RMB25.6 million was recorded for the five months ended 31 May 2019 as the income from counter-party default had increased by approximately

24.0 million for the relevant period, while other loss of approximately RMB1.8 million was recorded for the last corresponding period. The profit before taxation decreased by approximately RMB107.9 million from approximately RMB113.1 million for the five months ended 31 May 2018 to approximately RMB5.2 million for the five months ended 31 May 2019. Taking into account the income tax, the Target Group recorded a loss of approximately RMB4.2 million for the five months ended 31 May 2019 as compared to a profit of approximately RMB35.6 million for the five months ended 31 May 2018. The loss of the Target Group attributable to the equity shareholder of the Target Company amounted to

- 43 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

approximately RMB4.0 million for the five months ended 31 May 2019 as compared to a profit of approximately RMB35.6 million for the five months ended 31 May 2018.

As at 31 May 2019, the non-current assets of the Target Group amounted to approximately RMB685.5 million, which mainly consisted of investment properties of approximately RMB137.0 million and property, plant and equipment of approximately RMB487.4 million. The current assets of the Target Group as at 31 May 2019 amounted to approximately RMB9,603.0 million, which mainly included inventories and other contract costs of approximately RMB7,885.2 million, other receivables of approximately RMB1,403.9 million, restricted deposits of approximately RMB151.7 million and cash and cash equivalents of approximately RMB151.1 million. The current liabilities of the Target Group as at 31 May 2019 amounted to approximately RMB8,952.7 million, which comprised bank loans and borrowings from financial institutions of approximately RMB2,196.5 million, trade and other payables of approximately RMB2,038.2 million, contract liabilities of approximately RMB4,374.6 million and current taxation of approximately RMB343.4 million. As at 31 May 2019, the non-current liabilities of the Target Group amounted to approximately RMB1,233.0 million, which mainly consisted of bank loans and borrowings from financial institution of approximately RMB1,215.0 million. As at 31 May 2019, the Target Group had net current assets of approximately RMB650.2 million and net assets of approximately RMB102.7 million. The net assets attributable to equity shareholders of the Target Company amounted to approximately RMB101.3 million as at 31 May 2019. Its current ratio, as expressed as current assets over current liabilities, was approximately 1.07 as at 31 May 2019. The gearing ratio, as expressed as total liabilities over total assets, of the Target Group was approximately 0.99 as at 31 May 2019.

A.3 Reasons for the Acquisition

As disclosed in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2018, it is the strategy of the Group to identify land in prime locations suitable for property development and investment in order to increase its land reserve and further promote development of the Group. The Group has acquired land plots in different cities in the PRC through acquisition and land biddings. According to the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2019, the Group had a total of 15 ongoing property development projects with a total site area of over 796,500 sq.m. as at 30 June 2019. The Group will continue to seek for new opportunities in property development, especially to commence the development of residential properties in the Mainland China market. The Directors consider that the Acquisition is a good opportunity to supplement the land reserve of the Group in Fujian Province and are of the view that the Acquisition is in line with the business development strategy of the Group.

According to the information released by National Bureau of Statistics of the PRC as summarized in the table below, the national gross domestic product ("GDP") of the PRC continued to grow at rates between 6.6% and 6.9% during the period from 2015

- 44 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

to 2018. The total sales amount and sales area of commercial housing (including residential, office and commercial properties) also shown an increasing trend from 2015 to 2018. The average selling price of housing in the PRC increased continuously during the period from approximately RMB6,792 per sq.m. in 2015 to approximately RMB8,735 per sq.m. in 2018, representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 8.8%. The average selling price of housing in the PRC increased to approximately RMB9,369 per sq.m. for the eight months ended 31 August 2019.

Since all property projects owned by the Project Companies are located in Fujian Province, we have also considered the statistics released by National Bureau of Statistics of the PRC regarding the sales of housing in the Eastern area of the PRC (including Fujian Province). We noted that the average selling price of housing in the Eastern area of the PRC increased continuously from approximately RMB8,989 per sq.m. in 2015 to approximately RMB11,725 per sq.m. in 2018, representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 9.3%. The average selling price of housing in the Eastern area of the PRC further increased to approximately RMB12,590 per sq.m. for the eight months ended 31 August 2019 although the total sales area of housing in the Eastern area of the PRC showed a decrease of approximately 3.6% for the eight months ended 31 August 2019 as compared to the prior corresponding period.

We noted that the revenue of the Target Group for the five months ended 31 May

2019 decreased substantially as compared to the revenue recorded for the years ended 31 December 2017 and 2018 as most of the pre-sold property units of the Target Group had been delivered to the customers on or before 2018. Meanwhile, Mr. Lin has another nine property projects in Fujian Province, details of which were set out in the section headed "Directors' interest in competing business" in Appendix V to the Circular. We were advised by management of the Company that the Directors commenced negotiation with the Vendor in May 2019 for acquisition of potential

- 45 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

property projects to supplement the land reserve of the Group in Fujian Province. Given that (a) the property projects under the Target Group are currently under construction and are expected to complete and be ready for delivery within three years;

  1. the remaining shareholdings of the Project Companies not acquired by the Group are held by Independent Third Parties; and (c) other property projects owned by private group of the Vendor in Fujian Province (i) have completed the sale and delivery of most of the property units built; (ii) have limited room for further development due to stipulated plot ratios; or (iii) require consent of the joint venture partners in relation to any transfer of ownership, the Directors consider that the property projects under the Project Companies are suitable property projects for the Group to supplement its land reserve.

In light of the above, we concur with the view of the Directors that the prospects of the property projects owned by the Project Companies are promising and the Acquisition represents a good opportunity to supplement the land reserve of the Group and is in the interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

A.4 Consideration

The Consideration is HK$231.0 million, which shall be payable by issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares, being 22,000,000 new Shares, at the issue price of HK$10.5 per Consideration Share, by the Company to the Vendor on Completion Date.

The Consideration was determined based on 95% of the valuation surplus derived from (a) the preliminary valuation of the properties held by the Project Companies of RMB9,505.0 million (equivalent to approximately HK$10,561.1 million) applied with a discount of approximately 8.8% as agreed by the parties to the Agreement; and (b) the book value of the properties held by the Project Companies as at 31 May 2019 of approximately RMB8,452.0 million (equivalent to approximately HK$9,391.1 million), having considered that the net asset value of the Target Group as at Completion (before taking into account the valuation surplus) will be close to zero after a dividend of RMB50.0 million (equivalent to approximately HK$55.6 million) is to be distributed by Xiamen Sansheng to its original owner, namely Fuzhou Sansheng, which is indirectly held by Mr. Lin and Ms. Cheng and for the purpose of the Reorganisation, the Project Companies are to be sold to the Newco by Fuzhou Sansheng at its net asset value (i.e. RMB52.4 million (equivalent to approximately HK$58.2 million)), which is to be fully settled by offsetting the Inter-Company Loans owing by Fuzhou Sansheng to the Target Group.

Valuation of the properties held by the Project Companies

To assess the fairness and reasonableness of the Consideration, we have considered the valuation of the properties held by the Project Companies (the "Properties") as at 31 August 2019 prepared by Jones Lang LaSalle Corporate Appraisal and Advisory Limited (the "Valuer"), an independent professional valuer, in an aggregate amount of RMB9,665.1 million as set out in the valuation report (the "Valuation Report") contained in Appendix IV to the Circular.

- 46 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

We have performed works as required under Note 1(d) to Rule 13.80 of the Listing Rules in respect of the valuation of the Properties performed by the Valuer, which included discussion with the Valuer as to its experiences in valuing properties in the PRC similar to those of the Properties and its relationship with the Group and other parties to the Agreement, and review of the terms of the Valuer's engagement for the assessment of the valuation of the Properties, in particular to its scope of work.

We understand that Mr. Eddie T. W. Yiu, a senior director of the Valuer and the signor of the Valuation Report, is a Chartered Surveyor with 25 years of experience in valuation of properties in Hong Kong and the PRC as well as relevant experience in the Asia Pacific region. As such, we are of the view that the signor of the Valuation Report is qualified, experienced and competent in performing the valuation of properties in the PRC and to form a reliable opinion in respect of the valuation of the Properties. We noted from the engagement letter entered into between the Company and the Valuer that the scope of work was appropriate for the Valuer to form the opinion required to be given and there were no limitations on the scope of work which might adversely impact the degree of assurance given by the Valuer in the Valuation Report. The Valuer confirmed us that apart from normal professional fees payable to it in connection with its engagement for the valuation, no arrangements exist whereby it will receive any fee or benefit from the Group and its associates. We have enquired with the Valuer as to its independence from the Group and the parties to the Agreement and were given to understand that the Valuer is an Independent Third Party. The Valuer also confirmed us that it was not aware of any relationship or interest between it and the Company or any other parties that would be reasonably considered to affect its independence to act as an independent valuer for the Company.

We have reviewed the Valuation Report in respect of the valuation of the Properties prepared by the Valuer and discussed with the Valuer the methodology, basis and assumptions adopted in arriving at the valuation of the Properties as at 31 August 2019. We understand from the Valuer that the Valuation Report was prepared in compliance with the RICS Valuation - Global Standards 2017 published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, the HKIS Valuation Standards published by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors, the International Valuation Standards published by the International Valuation Standards Council and the requirements as set out in Chapter 5 and Practice Note 12 of the Listing Rules.

We noted that the comparison approach was adopted for assessing the value of the properties which are held for sale and held under development while the income approach was adopted for assessing the value of the properties which are held for investment. The Valuer advised us that given there were sufficient market transactions available for comparison purposes, it considered comparison approach was the most appropriate valuation method in arriving at the valuation of the properties which are held for sale and held under development. Meanwhile, as the value of the properties which are held for investment is income-driven and such

- 47 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

properties have been rented to third parties under the existing leases, the Valuer considered that income approach was the most appropriate valuation method in valuing the properties which are held for investment.

As set out in the Valuation Report, for assessing the properties held for sale, the Valuer assumed that the properties are sold in their existing states with the benefit of immediate vacant possession and reference was made to comparable sales transactions as available in the market. For the properties held under development, the Valuer has adopted comparison approach by making reference to comparable sales evidence as available in the market and also taken into account the accrued construction costs and professional fees relevant to the stage of construction and the remaining costs and fees expected to be incurred for completion of the development. We have discussed with the Valuer the selection criteria of, and reviewed, the comparables used by the Valuer for assessing the values of the properties which are held for sale and held under development respectively and noted that the comparables are similar assets located in vicinity of the properties which are held for sale and held under development for which price information is available. As such, we concur with the view of the Valuer that the comparables used in valuation are reasonable and comparable to the Target Group's properties which are held for sale and held under development.

In valuing the Target Group's properties which are held for investment, the Valuer has adopted the income approach by taking into account the net rental income of the properties derived from the existing leases and/or achievable in the existing market with due allowance for the reversionary income potential of the leases, which was then capitalized to determine the market value at an appropriate capitalization rate. We have discussed with the Valuer, and reviewed, the list of leasing information provided by the Valuer and noted that such information is predominately from lease data readily available in the market. We also understand from the Valuer that it had carried out on-site inspections and made relevant enquiries and searches for the purpose of the assessment and no irregularities were noted during the course of the assessment.

Given the methodologies applied by the Valuer are the generally accepted procedures and practices of professional surveyors and is in compliance with valuation standards published by the recognized professional surveying organizations as stated above, we consider that the methodology and basis adopted by the Valuer for determining the market values of the Properties are appropriate. Together with the fact that no unusual matters had come to our attention that led us to believe that the valuation of the Properties was not prepared on a reasonable basis, we believe that the valuation of the Properties fairly represents the market value of the Properties and form a fair and reasonable basis for our further assessment on the Consideration.

We have conducted a research on the website of the Stock Exchange for companies which (a) are currently listed on the Stock Exchange; and (b) have conducted transactions relating to acquisition/disposal of property development and related business in the PRC during the period from 26 June 2019, being three months immediately preceding the date of the Agreement, to the date of the Agreement (the "Comparison Period") which constitute a notifiable transaction. We consider the Comparison Period is fair and reasonable for comparison purposes as it covers a current period that reveals the prevailing market transactions regarding acquisition/disposal of property development and related business in the PRC and contains sufficient samples and information to enable the Shareholders to have a general understanding on the recent transactions of property development and related business conducted in the PRC. Based on the above-mentioned criteria, we have, on our best effort, identified six comparable transactions (the "Transaction Comparables"), which we consider are exhaustive based on the said criteria and are representative samples as those transactions involved the acquisition/disposal of property development and related business in the PRC.

Note: No information regarding the valuation of the properties were disclosed in the announcements of these Transaction Comparables and they are considered as outliers as their premia are extremely high as compared to other comparables.

We noted that all the Transaction Comparables made reference to the net asset value of the target companies (taking into account the property valuation, if any) as the basis of determining the consideration of the transactions. Therefore, we consider that it is a common practice to make reference to the adjusted net asset value of the target companies in determination of the consideration for acquisition or disposal of companies principally engaged in property development and related business. Meanwhile, we noted that the consideration of the Transaction Comparables ranged from a discount of approximately 30.9% to a premium of approximately 14.9% to/over the respective adjusted net asset value of the target company with an average of a discount of approximately 6.6%. The discount of approximately 82.0% of the Consideration to the adjusted net asset value of the Target Group is much greater than the consideration discounts of the Transaction Comparables.

Having considered that (i) it is not uncommon for the consideration of transactions relating to property development business making reference to the net asset value of the target companies (taking into account property valuation, if any); (ii) the Consideration represents a discount of approximately 82.0% to the adjusted net asset value of the Target Group as at 31 May 2019, which is presumed to be the fair value of the Target Group; and (iii) the discount of approximately 82.0% of the Consideration to the adjusted net asset value of the Target Group is much greater than the consideration discounts of the Transaction Comparables, we consider that the Consideration is in the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders and it is on normal commercial terms.

A.5 Settlement method of the Consideration

The Consideration shall be settled fully by the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares. We were advised by management of the Company that the Company has considered other settlement alternatives for the Acquisition such as cash payment or issue of debt instruments. As disclosed in the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2019, the Group had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of approximately RMB468.3 million. Having considered the cash consideration of approximately RMB458.0 million payable by the Group for the land acquisition as disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 20 August 2019, the Directors consider that it is more desirable for the Company to retain more cash for general working capital and future business expansion (such as land acquisitions) of the Group. In addition, settlement by borrowings or issue of debt instruments shall increase the Group's interest burden and adversely impact the profitability of the Group immediately. Therefore, the Directors consider that issue of Consideration Shares is a preferred method for settlement of the Consideration.

- 53 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

Given that (i) the issue of the Consideration Shares shall not affect the cash flow, liquidity position and financial leverage of the Group, while enlarging and strengthening the capital base of the Company; (ii) settlement by borrowings or debt instruments shall increase the Group's interest burden and adversely impact the profitability of the Group immediately; and (iii) other equity financing alternatives would also introduce dilution to the existing shareholders, we concur with the view of the Directors that it is in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to settle the Consideration by issuing the Consideration Shares so as to retain more cash resources for its general working capital and future development when opportunities arise.

A.6 Consideration Shares

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Consideration of HK$231.0 million shall be settled by the issue and allotment of 22,000,000 Consideration Shares, representing approximately 5.2% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date and approximately 5.0% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares, at the issue price of HK$10.5 per Consideration Share, which represents: (i) a premium of approximately 9.6% over the closing price of HK$9.58 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date; (ii) a discount of approximately 0.9% to the closing price of HK$10.6 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the date of the Agreement;

  1. the same price as the average closing price of approximately HK$10.5 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of the Agreement; and (iv) a premium of approximately 255.9% over the unaudited consolidated net asset value per Share of approximately HK$2.95 (based on the unaudited equity attributable to the Shareholders of approximately RMB1,112.9 million (equivalent to approximately to HK$1,236.6 million) as at 30 June 2019 as disclosed in the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2019 and 419,144,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date).

The issue price of the Consideration Shares was determined after arm's length negotiations between the Purchaser and the Vendor with reference to the recent price performance of the Shares and current market conditions. For the purposes of assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the issue price of the Consideration Shares, we have reviewed the movements in trading price of the Shares during the period from 26 March 2019, being six months immediately preceding the date of the Agreement, to the Latest Practicable Date (the "Review Period"). We consider that a period of six months is adequate to illustrate the recent price movements of the Shares for conducting a reasonable comparison between the closing price of the Shares and the issue price of the Consideration Shares.

As illustrated in the above chart, the closing price of the Shares has shown a general decreasing trend during the Review Period. The highest closing price of the Shares was HK$12.84 on 1 April 2019 while the lowest closing price of the Shares was HK$8.74 on 20 November 2019 with an average closing price of the Shares of approximately HK$11.07 during the Review Period. The issue price of the Consideration Share of HK$10.5 per Consideration Share represents (i) a premium of approximately 20.1% over the lowest closing price of the Shares of the Review Period; and (ii) a discount of approximately 18.2% and 5.1% to the highest and average closing price of the Shares of the Review Period respectively.

The closing price of the Shares continued to rise following the Company's publication of its annual results for the year ended 31 December 2018 on 20 March 2019 and increased from HK$12.02 on 26 March 2019, being the first day of the Review Period, to HK$12.84, being the highest closing price of the Shares during the Review Period, on 1 April 2019. The closing price of the Shares then decreased gradually to HK$11.30 on 16 April 2019. After a small rebound to HK$12.08 on 18 April 2019, the closing price of the Shares dropped to the short-term lowest level of HK$11.18 on 31 May 2019. Subsequently, the closing price of the Shares fluctuated narrowly in the range of HK$11.20 and HK$11.30 during the period from 3 June 2019 to 13 June 2019. After publication of a voluntary announcement in relation to an acquisition of a parcel of land with a land area of approximately 28,000 sq.m. and a plot ratio-based floor area of approximately 72,800 sq.m. in Gutian County, Ningde City, the PRC on 13 June 2019, the closing price of the Shares started to rise on the following trading day and reached HK$11.84 on 28 June 2019. Thereafter, the closing price of the Shares gradually decreased to HK$10.82 on 28 August 2019. Before the trading hours on 29 August 2019, the Company published its interim results announcement for the six months ended 30 June 2019 and the price of the Shares increased slightly and closed at HK$10.86 on 29 August 2019. Since then, the closing

- 55 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

price of the Shares showed a downward trend and decreased to HK$10.60 on 27 September 2019, being the date of the Agreement. After the publication of the announcement in relation to the Acquisition on 27 September 2019, the closing price of the Shares was generally on a downtrend and reached the lowest closing price of the Shares during the Review Period of HK$8.74 on 20 November 2019. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the closing price of the Shares was HK$9.58.

Given that the issue price of the Consideration Shares represents a premium of approximately 9.6% over the closing price of the Shares on the Latest Practicable Date and was the same as the average closing price of approximately HK$10.5 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of the Agreement, we are of the view that the issue price of the Consideration Shares is fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and it is on normal commercial terms.

A.7 Potential dilution effect on shareholding interests

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had 419,114,000 Shares in issue. Pursuant to the Agreement, 22,000,000 Consideration Shares will be issued upon Completion, representing approximately 5.2% of the total issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date; and (ii) approximately 5.0% of the total issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares, assuming that there shall be no changes in the issued share capital of the Company other than the issue of the Consideration Shares after the Latest Practicable Date and up to Completion. The following table sets out the shareholding structure of the Company (i) as at the Latest Practicable Date; and, for illustrative purposes only, (ii) immediately upon Completion and the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares:

Having considered the fairness of the Consideration and the issue price of the Consideration Shares and the potential benefits of acquiring the Target Group without cash outlay for the Acquisition, we consider that the dilution effect on the shareholding interests of the existing public Shareholders is justifiable.

- 56 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

A.8 Financial effects of the Acquisition

Upon Completion, the Target Company will become an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and its assets, liabilities and financial results will be consolidated into the consolidated financial statements of the Group. The financial effects of the Acquisition on the Group's earnings, cash flow, net asset value and gearing are set out below. However, it should be noted that the analysis below is for illustrative purpose only and does not purport to represent how the financial position of the Group would be upon Completion.

Earnings

With reference to the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Enlarged Group as set out in Appendix III to the Circular, had the Acquisition been completed on 1 January 2018, the loss for the year ended 31 December 2018 would have decreased by approximately RMB18.0 million from approximately RMB186.5 million to approximately RMB168.4 million.

Cash flow

The Consideration of HK$231.0 million shall be settled by issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares upon Completion. Therefore, the Group shall have no immediate cash outflow for the Acquisition, save for the estimated transaction costs directly attributable to the Acquisition of approximately RMB2.5 million.

Net asset value

According to the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Enlarged Group as set out in Appendix III to the Circular, had the Acquisition been completed on 30 June 2019, the total assets of the Group would have increased by approximately RMB9,516.0 million from approximately RMB11,467.8 million to approximately RMB20,983.8 million while the total liabilities of the Group would have increased by approximately RMB9,514.1 million from approximately RMB10,290.0 million to approximately RMB19,804.1 million. Therefore, the net asset value of the Group would have increased by approximately RMB1.9 million had the Acquisition been completed on 30 June 2019.

Gearing

Having considered the effects of the Acquisition on the total assets and total liabilities of the Group as mentioned above, the gearing of the Group, as expressed in the ratio of total liabilities to total assets, would have increased from approximately 0.90 to approximately 0.94 had the Acquisition been completed on 30 June 2019.

- 57 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

Based on the above analysis, we noted that the Acquisition would have positive effects on the earnings and net asset value of the Group but negative effects on the Group's cash position and gearing. However, having considered the reasons and benefits of the Acquisition and the fairness and reasonableness of the Consideration, we are of the view that the adverse financial impacts of the Acquisition to the Group in respect of cash position and gearing are commercially justifiable.

  1. CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

In arriving at our opinion regarding the Continuing Connected Transactions, we have considered the following principal factors and reasons:

B.1 Background and reasons for the Continuing Connected Transactions

On 6 August 2019, the Company entered into the Master Agreement with Fujian BE, which is principally engaged in the provision of property management services including customer services, sales activities assistance, visiting arrangement, catering services, security and order maintenance, cleaning services and equipment maintenance. Pursuant to the Master Agreement, Fujian BE and/or its subsidiaries agreed to provide the Services to property projects owned by the Group for a term from 6 August 2019 to 31 December 2021 (both days inclusive). The Existing Annual Caps were set with reference to, among other things, the development schedule of the property projects owned by the Group, the estimated number of showrooms to be supported and the estimated growth in salary at the relevant time.

In view that the development schedule of certain property projects owned by the Group were accelerated and two property projects acquired by the Group since 6 August 2019 were not taken into account in determining the Existing Annual Caps (the "Existing Business Needs"), the Company proposes to increase the Existing Annual Caps to the Revised Annual Caps I to cater for the Existing Business Needs. In addition, as the Project Companies have been engaging Fujian BE and its subsidiaries to provide the Services to their respective property projects, it is expected that, upon Completion, the Existing Annual Caps will be insufficient to cover the Services required by the Target Group from 2020 onwards (the "Acquisition Need"). As such, the Company proposes to increase the Existing Annual Caps to the Revised Annual Caps II to cater for both the Existing Business Needs and the Acquisition Need.

On 22 November 2019 (after trading hours of the Stock Exchange), the Company and Fujian BE entered into the Supplemental Agreement to amend the Existing Annual Caps to the Revised Annual Caps under the Master Agreement. Save for the revision of the Existing Annual Caps, all other terms and conditions under the Master Agreement remain unchanged.

We were advised by management of the Company that in promoting and selling the Group's properties, it is necessary to set up showrooms to illustrate the real environment, design and facilities of those properties to the potential purchasers. The Company considers that good showroom supporting services can create a positive

- 58 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

purchase experience to the customers and therefore the Company has been exploring opportunities to improve and/or complement the existing showrooms to enrich the experiences offered to potential purchasers. Given that showroom supporting services are only needed in the Group's property pre-sales/sales activities, which are not conducted regularly throughout the year, the Company considers that it is more cost effective for the Group to engage an external service provider to provide such services instead of hiring and training staffs internally for the provision of the showroom supporting services.

Having considered that (i) Fujian BE is specialized in the provision of the Services; (ii) the Group needs the Services for the promotion and sales of the Group's properties from time to time in its daily operation; (iii) the maintenance of a showroom supporting service team by the Group may not be cost effective as compared to outsourcing the Services; and (iv) the Project Companies and the Group have been using the Services provided by Fujian BE since 2015 and August 2019 respectively and consider Fujian BE a reliable partner which is capable of providing the Services that meet their needs and standard, we concur with the view of the Directors that the Continuing Connected Transactions are conducted in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and it is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

B.2 Principal terms of the Master Agreement (as amended by the Supplemental Agreement)

Pursuant to the Master Agreement, the Company agreed to engage Fujian BE and/ or its subsidiaries to provide the Group with supporting services in showrooms, including customer services, sales activities assistance, visiting arrangement, catering services, security and order maintenance, cleaning services and equipment maintenance, for a term from 6 August 2019 to 31 December 2021 (both days inclusive). The parties shall enter into individual agreements setting out the detailed service fee and the payment terms for each particular showroom as required by the Group.

The fee for the Services will be determined between the parties after arm's length negotiations (i) with reference to normal commercial terms and the prevailing market rates for the provision of similar services; and (ii) not more than that charged by the Independent Third Parties to the Group. The fees for the Services will include (i) labor costs plus a service charge of 20% and a tax rate of 6%; (ii) tea break fee plus a service charge of 10% and a tax rate of 6%; (iii) catering fee plus a service charge of 45% and a tax rate of 6%; and (iv) purchasing agent fee plus a service charge of 10% and a tax rate of 6%. Pursuant to the Master Agreement, Fujian BE shall be responsible for the insurance, wages, labor insurance benefits and all other expenses of Fujian BE's employees. Disputes relating to Fujian BE and its employees shall be handled by Fujian BE and not related to the Group.

We were given to understand that the Group has been outsourcing the Services since August 2019 and Fujian BE is the one and only service provider providing the Services to the Group since then. As such, we were unable to compare the terms offered to the Group by Fujian BE and the Independent Third Parties. As an alternative

- 59 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

assessment, we have reviewed the statistics published in the China Top 100 Property Management Companies Research Report (the "Research Report") issued by China Index Academy, an independent property research organization in the PRC which has been issuing the Research Report annually since 2008. Fujian BE was one of the top 100 companies researched under the Research Report in 2017. According to the Research Report, the gross profit margin of the top 100 property management companies in the PRC ranged from approximately 21.2% to 23.9% during the period from 2016 to 2018.

We have reviewed samples of the service agreements, representing around 40% of the total number of service agreements, entered into between the Group and Fujian BE during the period from August 2019 to the Latest Practicable Date and the breakdown of the underlying costs and service charges, which we considered are representative, and noted that the labor costs accounted for more than 90% of the total service fee charged by Fujian BE while the other fees accounted for less than 10% of the total service fee. We also noted that the gross profit margins of Fujian BE for providing the Services to the Group under these service agreements were approximately 21.4%, which fall within, and close to the lower end of, the range of gross profit margins of the top 100 property management companies in the PRC of approximately 21.2% to 23.9% during the period from 2016 to 2018.

Having considered that (i) the gross profit margins of Fujian BE for providing the Services to the Group fall within, and close to the lower end of, the range of the gross profit margins of the top 100 property management companies in the PRC during 2016 to 2018; (ii) the Group is not obligated, but could exercise its sole discretion to determine whether, to use the Services to be provided by Fujian BE on a case-by-case basis; and (iii) adequate measures as detailed in the section headed "B.3. Internal control measures" below have been, and will be, implemented by the Group to ensure the terms offered by Fujian BE are not less favorable to the Group than those offered by the Independent Third Parties, we consider that the terms of the Master Agreement are on normal commercial terms and fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned.

B.3 Internal control measures

The Group has adopted the following internal control procedures and corporate governance measures in relation to the Continuing Connected Transactions to ensure that the terms of each individual agreement to be entered into between Fujian BE and

- 60 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

the Company are in line with the terms of the Master Agreement and no less favourable to the Company than those available from the independent service providers:

  1. each time the Group requires the Services, the Group will send Fujian BE the particulars of the property project for the purpose of obtaining quotation. Upon receipt of the quotation, the business department of the Group will compare the estimated salary in the quotation with the salary paid for similar services by at least three independent property developers in the city where the project is located. The business department of the Group is responsible to ensure that the salary quoted by Fujian BE is no less favourable to the Company;
  2. the business department of the Group will calculate the gross margin to be recorded by Fujian BE for that particular property project based on the quotation and ensure that such gross margin will not be higher than the average gross margin for providing similar services as indicated in the latest China Top 100 Property Management Companies research report;
  3. in the event that the salary paid by other independent property developers in paragraph (a) or the latest China Top 100 Property Management Companies research report in paragraph (b) are not available, the business department shall obtain quotations for the Services from at least three independent service providers. Fujian BE will only be chosen if its quotation is the most competitive among all quotations received;
  4. in addition, the finance department of the Group shall be responsible for reviewing the usage of the Revised Annual Caps to ensure the entering into of each individual agreement will not result in exceeding the Revised Annual Caps;
  5. general manager of the business department will conduct a final review to ensure the above procedures are all fulfilled and completed before any individual service agreement is entered into by the Group; and
  6. the finance department of the Group shall be responsible for monitoring the total fee paid or payable by the Group to Fujian BE during the financial year to ensure that the annual caps under the Master Agreement are not exceeded, and inform the executive Directors in the event that the annual caps are almost fully utilized. Where appropriate, the Company shall seek to renew the annual caps and re-comply with the requirements of Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules in case the total transaction amount is expected to exceed the Revised Annual Caps.

We have discussed the above internal control measures with management of the Company and reviewed samples of internal control documents, representing around 40% of the total number of service agreements entered into between the Group and Fujian BE during the period from August 2019 to the Latest Practicable Date, including

- 61 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

the quotation from Fujian BE, the list of salary paid by independent property developers, the calculation of the gross margin to be recorded by Fujian BE and the comparison to the China Top 100 Property Management Companies research report and the approval form signed by the general manager of the business department, which we considered are representative, and noted that the procedures mentioned above were properly followed. Management of the Company confirmed us that the abovementioned internal control policies were, and would be, consistently applied to all the Continuing Connected Transactions.

Having considered the internal control measures implemented by the Group, we concur with the Directors' view that adequate internal control measures are in place to govern the Continuing Connected Transactions and ensure the terms of the Continuing Connected Transactions are no less favourable to the Company than those offered by the Independent Third Parties. With the implementation of the abovementioned internal control measures, we believe that the Continuing Connected Transactions will be conducted on normal commercial terms and on terms that are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

B.4 Revised Annual Caps

According to the Supplemental Agreement, the Existing Annual Caps shall be increased to the Revised Annual Caps I in the event that the conditions precedent to the Supplemental Agreement set out in the Letter from the Board are fulfilled. In the event that the conditions precedent to the Supplemental Agreement are fulfilled and the Acquisition is completed, the Existing Annual Caps shall be increased to the Revised Annual Caps II.

The Revised Annual Caps II were determined based on factors similar to the Revised Annual Caps I, having accounted for the additional four property projects to be owned by the Enlarged Group upon Completion.

- 62 -

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

To assess whether the Revised Annual Caps are fair and reasonable, we have discussed with management of the Company and reviewed the development plan of the Group's properties and the breakdown and calculations of the Revised Annual Caps. We noted that the labor costs plus a service charge of 20% and a tax rate of 6% accounted for over 90% of the Revised Annual Caps while the other fees accounted for less than 10% of the Revised Annual Caps.

Revised Annual Caps I

Based on the calculation of the Revised Annual Caps I, the Revised Annual Caps I would be RMB 28 million for the period from 6 August 2019 to 31 December 2019, RMB51 million for the year ending 31 December 2020 and RMB47 million for the year ending 31 December 2021. Having considered the development plan of the Group's property projects, the Company expects that the number of property projects which require the Services from Fujian BE would be 10, 11 and 9 for the period from 6 August 2019 to 31 December 2019, the year ending 31 December 2020 and the year ending 31 December 2021 respectively.

As the Revised Annual Caps I for the year ending 31 December 2019 only represent service fees to be charged by Fujian BE for projects with service period of one month to five months, the service fees to be charged by Fujian BE for the year ending 31 December 2020 are expected to increase significantly by 82.1% as compared to that of 2019. Given that the Company expects the number of staff working in the showrooms will decrease from around 650 for the period from 6 August 2019 to 31 December 2019 to around 370 for the year ending 31 December 2021, the transaction amount of the Continuing Connected Transactions under the Master Agreement, and thus the Revised Annual Caps I, for the year ending 31 December 2021 is anticipated to decrease by approximately 7.8% as compared to that of

LETTER FROM CRESCENDO

2020. We were advised by management of the Company that pre-sale usually launches one year to two years before completion of the construction and more staff is required for showroom services at the hot-sale period, which usually lasts for 1 year, when the property projects are newly launched for pre-sale while less staff is required after the hot-sale period. Based on the development plan of the Group, the eleven projects required the Services during the period from 6 August 2019 to 31 December 2021 shall be completed during 2020 and 2021, among which four and six projects have commenced pre-sale during late 2018 and 2019 respectively while the pre-sale of the remaining project is expected to commence in early 2020. Therefore, the number of staff required for showroom services is expected to decrease during the period.

We noted that the average monthly salary is expected to increase at an annual rate of approximately 10% having considered the increase in salary of 5% per annum and the changes in personnel mix of staff required for provision of the Services throughout the period. We were advised by management of the Company that the number of staff required shall reduce but the personnel mix would change with a larger proportion of staff with a higher salary after the hot-sale period. Therefore, the average monthly salary is expected to increase during the three years ending 31 December 2021.

With reference to the latest statistics released by the National Bureau of Statistics of the PRC, the GDP of the PRC for the nine months ended 30 September 2019 was approximately RMB69,780 billion, representing an increase of approximately 6.2% as compared to the previous corresponding period. The national per capita disposable income was approximately RMB22,882 for the nine months ended 30 September 2019, representing an actual growth of approximately 6.1% over the last corresponding period after deducting the price factor. The statistics also showed that the national consumer price had increased by 2.5% for the nine months ended 30 September 2019 as compared to the prior corresponding period. The OECD Economic Outlook, Interim Report released in September 2019 by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, an international organization with 34 country members, revealed that the economic growth in the PRC eased only gradually, amidst ongoing policy stimulus but import demand weakened considerably. The escalating trade tensions are weighing on investment and adding to uncertainty, but new fiscal and quasi-fiscal stimulus measures and the easing of monetary policy are expected to help cushion credit growth and demand. It is expected that the GDP growth rate of the PRC for 2019 and 2020 would be 6.1% and 5.7% respectively. Based on the above, we consider that the annual increase in salary of 5% adopted by the Company is fair and reasonable.

Having considered the above factors, we are of the view that the Revised Annual Caps I proposed by the Directors are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

Revised Annual Caps II

The Revised Annual Caps II, being the sum of the Revised Annual Caps I and the annual caps for the additional four property projects owned by the Project Companies (the "Project Companies Annual Caps"), are proposed to be RMB 28 million for the period from 6 August 2019 to 31 December 2019, RMB71 million for the year ending 31 December 2020 and RMB69 million for the year ending 31 December 2021. The Project Companies Annual Caps are projected to be nil for the period from 6 August 2019 to 31 December 2019, RMB20 million for the year ending 31 December 2020 and RMB22 million for the year ending 31 December

We understand from management of the Company that the number of staff working in the showrooms would decrease from around 170 for the year ending 31 December 2020 to around 140 for the year ending 31 December 2021 as one of the property projects owned by the Project Companies which requires the Services during August 2020 to December 2020 would no longer require the Services in 2021.

According to the development schedule of the Project Companies' property projects, two, out of four, projects would be provided with the Services under their respective existing agreements until July 2020 and the Project Companies would renew such agreements for the Services upon expiry of the existing agreements. Therefore, service fees for a service period of around five months only are expected to incur for two projects for the year ending 31 December 2020. On the other hand, the Services will be required for the three projects throughout 2021. Together with the expected annual increment of 5% in average monthly salary, the Project Companies Annual Caps are projected to increase by approximately 10% for the year ending 31 December 2021 although the number

of property projects of the Project Companies which require the Services from Fujian BE are expected to decrease from four for the year ending 31 December 2020 to three for the year ending 31 December 2021.

Given the average salary growth rate of 5% per annum is in line with the growth of the economy of the PRC as mentioned above, we are of the view that the annual increase in salary adopted by the Company is fair and reasonable.

Having considered the above factors, we are of the view that the Project Companies Annual Caps proposed by the Directors are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole. Since both the Revised Annual Caps I and the Project Companies Annual Caps are fair and reasonable, we consider the Revised Annual Caps II proposed by the Directors are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

RECOMMENDATION

Having considered the principal factors and reasons stated above, we consider that (i) the terms of the Acquisition contemplated under the Agreement are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned, the Acquisition is on normal commercial terms and conducted in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and in the interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole; and (ii) the terms of the Master Agreement as amended by the Supplemental Agreement are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and the Continuing Connected Transactions are on normal commercial terms and conducted in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and in the interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

- I-2 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

the development projects explored by the Group were under construction or pre-sale stage and conditions to recognise revenue were not satisfied during the period.

The Group's investment properties rental income recorded approximately RMB13.0 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 (for the six months ended 30 June 2018: approximately RMB3.6 million), representing an increase of approximately 263% as compared to the amount in the corresponding period in 2018. It was derived from commercial investment properties in Harbin and commercial investment properties in Qingdao, which were leased out in January and August 2018 respectively.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales mainly represents the cost directly related to the development of the Group's properties. It comprises cost of land use rights, acquisition premium, construction costs, decoration costs, capitalised interest expenses and finance cost of advance payment. For the six months ended 30 June 2019, the Group did not record any cost of sales accordingly (for the six months ended 30 June 2018: approximately RMB647.1 million), which was due to the pre-sale properties have not been delivered during period under review.

Gross profit

For the six months ended 30 June 2019, gross profit was approximately RMB13.0 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2018: approximately RMB33.7 million).

Valuation gain on investment properties

For the six months ended 30 June 2019, the Group recorded unrealised fair value gain on investment properties in Qingdao and Harbin of approximately RMB3.8 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2018: Nil).

Other income

Other income mainly comprised net exchange gain/(loss), bank interest income, fair value changes on derivative financial instruments, mark-to-market realised fair value changes and mark-to-market unrealised fair value changes on financial assets. The Group's other income increased from approximately RMB3.1 million for the six months ended 30 June 2018 to approximately RMB5.6 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019. Such increases were mainly due to the turnaround of Group's mark-to-market fair value loss on the financial assets from the prior period of approximately RMB4.3 million to gain of approximately RMB8.4 million during the period. The turnaround of the fair value gain on the derivative financial instruments for the prior period of approximately RMB8.8 million to a loss of approximately RMB5.8 million during the period.

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

In addition, exchange difference changed from exchange loss of approximately RMB 3.7 million in the corresponding period in 2018 to exchange gain of approximately RMB 2.6 million in current period. The exchange gain was recorded mainly because of the decreased United States dollar ("USD" or "US$") exchange rate when the Company was paying the USD bond interest in current period, which was recognised at the beginning of the period (the functional currency of the Company is RMB and the exchange rate of USD against RMB had depreciated up to 3% during the period). Exchange loss recorded in the corresponding period in 2018 was mainly due to the continued increase in exchange rate of USD against RMB in the first half of last year, which resulting in a net exchange loss arising from the US$135 million bond and USD deposits held by the Company.

Selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses

For the six months ended 30 June 2019, selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses amounted to approximately RMB77.0 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2018: approximately RMB35.8 million), representing an increase of approximately 115% as compared with the corresponding period in 2018. The increase in selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses was mainly due to the increase in overall sales and marketing expenses owing to the increase in contracted sales amount during the period, boosted by the Group's new launches of property projects available for pre-sale in 2019 and continued expansion in business scale of the Group, resulting in increases in staff costs and administrative expenses accordingly.

Share of losses of joint ventures

For the six months ended 30 June 2019, the Group's share of losses of joint ventures amounted to approximately RMB2.2 million (for the six months ended 30 June 2018: Nil).

For the six months ended 30 June 2019, basic loss per share was approximately RMB9.81 cents (for the six months ended 30 June 2018: approximately RMB4.30 cents).

- I-6 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

approximately RMB0.1 million), which will be terminated upon the completion of the transfer procedures with the buyers in respect of the legal title of the properties.

The Directors do not consider it probable that the Group will sustain a loss under these guarantees as the bank has the right to sell the property and recovers the outstanding loan balance from the sale proceeds if the property buyer defaults payment. The Group has not recognised any deferred income in respect of these guarantees as its fair value is considered to be minimal by the directors.

Foreign exchange risk

The functional currency of the Company and its major subsidiaries is RMB, in which most of their transactions and assets are denominated. The Group has exposure to USD exchange risk arising from its bonds in the amount of USD135.0 million issued during the prior year.

Review of Operations

The Group's principal activities are property development and sale, and property investment.

The Board is of the view that the overall operation of the Group was satisfactory and its financial position remained stable and healthy in the current period, while substantial contracted sales of approximately RMB2,117.8 million were achieved during the six months ended 30 June 2019, forming a solid basis for the Group's future growth in recognised revenue.

With the support from Sansheng Group Limited and its subsidiaries ("Sansheng Group"), the Group has smoothly implemented its strategic plan during the period under review, it has proactively selected property development projects from those cities with a robust economy and avoided the projects from areas where stringent real estate policies such as restrictions on purchases and prices were in effect. The Group has obtained a quality project through acquisition, which has contributed to its land bank and has laid a cornerstone for its property development business in the future.

Property investment

The Group's portfolio of investment properties comprises certain properties in Hong Kong and mainland China. During the year 2018, the Group's investment properties in Harbin and Qingdao have been leased out. The Group is proactively considering leasing or selling its industrial building units in Hong Kong.

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Net valuation gain on investment property

During the year, the Group recorded unrealized net fair value gain on investment properties in Hong Kong, Qingdao and Harbin of approximately RMB1.5 million. An unrealized fair value gain of approximately RMB33.6 million was recorded in 2017.

Other loss/income

These mainly comprised net exchange loss, bank interest income, mark-to-market unrealized fair value changes on the financial assets and fair value changes on derivative financial instruments. The Group's other income decreased from approximately RMB41.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 to other loss of approximately RMB43.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2018. Such decreases were mainly due to the turnaround of exchange gain of approximately RMB12.2 million from the year ended 31 December 2017 to exchange loss of approximately RMB41.0 million in the current year. The exchange loss was mainly due to the issuance of bonds in an amount of USD135.0 million by the Group during the year and the USD against the RMB appreciating by more than 5% in this year. Besides, the Group's mark-to-market unrealized fair value gain on the financial assets of approximately RMB29.2 million for the previous year changed to a loss of approximately RMB10.6 million in the current year.

Selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses

For the year ended 31 December 2018, selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses amounted to approximately RMB116.0 million (for the year ended 31 December 2017: approximately RMB50.7 million), representing an increase of approximately 128.8% as compared with that in 2017. The increase in selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses was mainly due to substantial increase in the number of properties and business scale of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018 after the Group has completed the layout in all medium-sized cities in China in 2018, resulting in increase in staff costs, advertisement and marketing costs accordingly.

Share of profits less losses of joint ventures

For the year ended 31 December 2018, the Group's share of profits less losses of joint ventures amounted to loss of approximately RMB1.5 million (for the year ended 31 December 2017: Nil).

Income tax

For the year ended 31 December 2018, the Group's income tax credit was approximately RMB13.3 million. The income tax credit mainly included PRC corporate income tax and reversal of temporary differences on deferred tax, which amounted to approximately RMB5.9 million and RMB19.4 million respectively.

- I-12 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The reversal of temporary differences on the deferred tax was mainly due to the fact that the investment properties of Harbin and Qingdao have been leased out. Therefore, the presumption that the carrying amounts of investment properties measured using fair value model are recovered entirely through sale is not applicable, and the corresponding deferred income tax is re-assessed. The impact of deducting items such as land appreciation tax and business tax shall be reversed and the deferred income tax was reversed by approximately RMB31.2 million.

Loss for the year attributable to the Shareholders

For the year ended 31 December 2018, the Group recorded a loss attributable to the Shareholders of approximately RMB166.5 million (for the year ended 31 December 2017: approximately RMB0.02 million).

For the year ended 31 December 2018, basic loss per share was approximately RMB39.72 cents (for the year ended 31 December 2017: RMB0.00 cents).

The higher loss in the current year was mainly due to the augment in the Group's scale of financing resulting in increased total interest costs, and interest expenses rising from approximately RMB36.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 to approximately RMB95.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2018, thus the gross profit was offset by the increase of interest costs, selling and marketing expenses and administrative expenses during the current year. The majority of the land development projects newly explored by the Group were under construction and/or at the pre-sale stages and criteria for recognition of revenue were not satisfied and certain operating costs during the year were not offset by corresponding revenue.

The Directors do not consider it probable that the Group will sustain a loss under these guarantees as the bank has the rights to sell the property and recovers the outstanding loan balance from the sale proceeds if the property buyers default payment. The Group has not recognised any deferred income in respect of these guarantees as its fair value is considered to be minimal by the Directors.

Outlook and Plan

Capitalizing on Sansheng Group's brand, capital, professional experience and its professional workforce, the Group has been actively acquiring quality land for its land bank resources through both acquisitions and cooperation as well as participation in public land auctions. Meanwhile, the Group will pursue industrial and real estate integration in order to attain significant enhancement on the area and quality of land acquired.

The Group has established a new property development platform through the joint venture company (the "JV Company") established together with Fuzhou Sansheng. Leveraging the resource integration, development capabilities and industry expertise shared between both parties, the JV Company has, following its establishment, acquired a number of land parcels in economically vibrant regions in the PRC, such as the West Coast Economic Zone, Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone and Bohai Economic Rim, and commenced residential and commercial property development there.

- I-18 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The Group will continue to enhance the returns from its commercial properties and their capitalization, periodically review its property portfolio and make every endeavor to increase its rental income.

Over the past 40 years of reform and liberalization in Mainland China, the economy has substantially grown with broadening urbanization and rising income of residents. The real estate market has shifted from "satisfying the needs of living" to "pursuing a better living." The Group believes that, adhering to the aim of developing high-quality products, the development of quality projects to be launched to the market can stimulate further growth.

Looking ahead to the coming year, we believe that the macroeconomic policies in respect of the real estate industry promulgated by the Chinese Government will continue to maintain a regulatory direction of "prohibition of speculation in properties," and city-oriented policies will be adopted within the real estate markets in different regions. Under the volatile economic environment, the Group believes that long-term fundamental factors that fuel the steady growth in the PRC's property market will remain unchanged.

Accordingly, in order to develop the PRC's property market, the Group will closely monitor the changes in market conditions and governmental policies, allocate resources for deeper research and business development, and look for appropriate opportunities through careful selection of investment choices. The Group is actively expanding its property business and acquiring suitable targets, and on the back of its strategic geographical layout, cultivating a professional and highly efficient workforce, and developing of sophisticated products and quality services. In this way the Group can maintain its competitiveness and promising prospects as it continuously strives to achieve excellent operational efficiency and outstanding profitability.

Future Plans for Material Investments or Capital Assets

Save for the business plan as disclosed in the section headed "Outlook and Plan" above, there was no other plan for material investments or acquisition of capital assets as at 31 December 2018.

Employees

As at 31 December 2018, the Group employed a total of 333 employees, 329 of them were based in Mainland China. Staff costs (excluding directors' emoluments) for the year ended 31 December 2018 amounted to approximately RMB27.6 million (2017: approximately RMB10.6 million). The Group ensures that the pay levels of its employees are competitive and in line with the market trend and its employees are rewarded on a performance related basis within the general framework of its own salary and bonus system.

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

  1. FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017
    Financial Review

Turnover

As the Group's investment properties remained vacant throughout the year, no turnover was recorded for the year ended 31 December 2017 (commercial investment properties in Harbin have been leased out on 5 January 2018 for a term of 10 years). However, the Group's main source of income for the year continued to be deriving from the provision of project management services which is accounted for as other income.

Upon the completion of brand renewal in 2017, capitalizing on Sansheng Group's capital, experience and its professional workforce, the Group has been actively acquiring quality land for its land bank resources by adhering to its principle of focusing on mergers and acquisitions as well as cooperative development, and being supported by the participation in public land auctions. Meanwhile, the Group will pursue industrial and real estate integration in order to attain significant enhancement on the number and quality of land acquired.

Loss for the year

Loss for the year amounted to approximately HK$85,000 as compared to a loss of approximately HK$31.0 million in the previous year. During the year, the Group's investment properties remained vacant and did not generate any rental income. The Group's main sources of income included gains on disposal of the Group's investments in listed financial assets, mark-to-market unrealized gains on the Group's listed financial assets and interest income from bank deposits.

The Group's loss for the year significantly narrowed down as compared with the previous year, which was mainly attributable to the net investment income from the Group's financial assets portfolio of approximately HK$23.1 million, and the unrealized fair value gains on the Group's investment properties of approximately HK$38.9 million.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses mainly comprised property related expenses and tax, utilities charges, legal and professional fees and rental expenses. The higher operating expenses this year was mainly due to the engagements of external legal advisor and financial advisor in relation to the General Offer exercise following the change of controlling shareholder of the Group during the year, the formation of the JV Company, the acquisitions in Fujian Pingtan and Jinan Zhangqiu, which generated consulting fee of approximately HK$9.2 million in total.

- I-20 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Other income

Other income mainly comprised bank interest income, project management services income and exchange gains. The exchange gains for the year posted a year-on-year decrease, which was mainly due to the fact that the Group mainly held USD and HKD denominated assets last year. As Renminbi, the Group's functional currency, depreciated by more than 5% in the previous year, the Group recorded a higher exchange gains when converting HKD/USD denominated bank deposits into RMB. The exchange losses on USD and HKD denominated assets resulting from the appreciation of Renminbi during the year, coupled with new bonds in an amount of US$135.0 million, resulted in recording USD denominated liabilities, which generated exchange gains. In light of the above, exchange gains was recorded with a lower amount as compared with the previous year. In addition, project management services income for the year decreased by approximately HK$6.3 million, which was calculated based on the cost-plus arrangement on the Mainland China project team's staff cost. The decrease in project management services income was mainly due to the lower man hours of services provided.

Staff costs

Staff costs for the year decreased by 22.1% to approximately HK$16.3 million, which was mainly due to certain staff being transferred to Lifestyle China Group Limited and its subsidiaries since Lifestyle International Holdings Limited ceased to be the controlling shareholder of the Group on 13 April 2017 following the disposal of its entire interest in the Group, resulting in a significant decrease in staff costs.

Depreciation and amortisation

The significant increase for the year was a result of charging to the profit and loss account the amortized prepaid lease payment of HK$16.8 million in respect of the Group's Yifu Land in Shenyang, the PRC. The same has been capitalized in the past as part of the properties under development, but charged to the profit and loss account in the middle of last year. Therefore, the amortization for the whole year was doubled from last year. As there has been a long delay in getting approval from the relevant government authorities in respect of the master layout plan, it is expected that the construction work will continue to be postponed.

Financial investments and net investment income

During the year, the Group recorded an investment income of approximately HK$26.9 million in aggregate, which mainly comprised gains on disposal of the Group's investments in listed financial assets, mark-to-market unrealized fair value gains on the financial assets and fair value change on derivative financial instruments of approximately HK$18.5 million and dividend income from investments in listed financial assets of HK$4.6 million.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Fair value changes on investment properties

During the year, the Group recorded unrealized fair value gains on investment properties in Harbin, Qingdao and Hong Kong of approximately HK$26.1 million, HK$9.0 million and HK$3.8 million, respectively. An unrealized fair value loss on investment properties in Hong Kong of approximately HK$900,000 was recorded in 2016.

Liquidity and financial resources

In 2017, the issuance and sales of property bonds experienced difficulties in general. In the context of frequent credit risk events in the capital market and investors becoming much more cautious about investing in private property issuers, the Company quickly acted to catch up with the window period for issuing bonds. In November 2017, the Group, through Industrial Bank Co., Ltd. Hong Kong Branch, the placing agent, successfully issued corporate bonds in an amount of US$135.0 million, at an interest rate of the sum of 4.3% per annum and a rate with reference to LIBOR for deposits in USD for the relevant interest period, reflecting the market recognition of the Company in terms of its credit qualifications, financial performance and operating capabilities.

Following the successful issuance of corporate bonds in an amount of US$135.0 million by the Group, as at 31 December 2017, the Group's total loans amounted to approximately HK$3,168.0 million, of which 67% were denominated in RMB and the remaining in USD. About 65% of the Group's borrowings were fixed-rate borrowings. As at 31 December 2017, the Group's bank loans and borrowings from financial institutions amounted to approximately HK$936.6 million (2016: nil) and bonds payables were approximately HK$1,045.6 million (2016: nil). Fixed deposits, cash and bank balances amounted to approximately HK$1,018.2 million (2016: HK$414.7 million), of which approximately 49% were deposited with banks in Hong Kong (2016: 86%) and the remaining approximately 51% with banks in the PRC (2016: 14%). About 49% of the bank balances were denominated in RMB and the remaining in USD and HKD. The current ratio of

1.08 times, together with the outstanding credit facilities of approximately RMB4,726.8 million, revealed that the Group has maintained a solid financial position. As mentioned above, as part of the Group's cash management, certain cash has been used for purchase shares of Hong Kong listed companies with a value of approximately HK$69.6 million as at 31 December 2017. The Group did not have any banking facilities available as at 31 December 2017 (2016: nil), but will make appropriate banking facility arrangements when required. The Group has sufficient financial resources and flexible financial management policies in place to meet the needs of business development in the coming years.

Finance cost

As the Group successfully issued corporate bonds in an amount of US$135.0 million, coupled with other financing, the weighted average interest rate was 7.2% (2016: nil) in 2017, and the total interest expense paid or payable was approximately HK$41.7 million (2016: nil).

The Group's gearing ratio was approximately 75.6% (2016: 19.3%) and the gearing ratio excluding receipts in advance was approximately 59.9% (2016: 19.3%).

As at 31 December 2017, the Group's inventories with a carrying amount of approximately HK$1,471.7 million were pledged to secure the bank and financial institution loans of the Group (2016: nil).

Capital expenditure

For the year ended 31 December 2017, the Group's capital expenditure amounted to approximately HK$1,410.6 million, which was mainly attributable to the acquisitions of projects in Pingtan, Fujian and Zhangqiu, Jinan (2016: HK$2.3 million).

Material acquisition, disposal and significant events

Fujian Pingtan project

On 16 August 2017, Sansheng Land Development Limited*(三盛置地發展有 限公司), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Mr. Wang Peng*(王鵬) entered into an agreement, pursuant to which Sansheng Land Development Limited*(三盛置地發展有限公司)conditionally agreed to acquire, and Mr. Wang Peng conditionally agreed to sell 90% of the issued share capital of Hong Kong Zhong Sheng Property Investment Limited* (香港中盛置業投資有限公司) ("HK Zhong Sheng Property") (the "Fujian Pingtan project"). HK Zhong Sheng Property is principally engaged in property investment and property management. As one of the conditions precedent to the agreement, HK Zhong Sheng Property will set up a new company as a wholly-owned subsidiary in the PRC with the scope of business of property investment and property development. Upon the establishment of the new company, Pingtan Yanggung Guohang Land Limited*

(平潭陽光國航置地有限公司)will be acquired.

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Pingtan Yanggung Guohang Land Limited was established in 2012 in the PRC, and its principal assets are the land, being (i) a parcel of land with an area of approximately 75,500.41 square metres for residential or commercial use, the plot ratio of which shall not exceed 2.0; and (ii) a parcel of land with an area of approximately 122,122 square metres for residential and commercial use, the plot ratio of which shall not exceed 2.8.

The land is located in Pingtan comprehensive experimental zone. The PRC government has been implementing more liberal measures to facilitate investment and trade, capital and personnel exchanges. Amid the development of the region, the property market of Pingtan is also growing at an increasing pace. The average sales price per square metres for residential units was recorded at RMB8,400 per square metres for 2016, representing a year-on-year increase of approximately 10.5%. The property sales volume has remained steady for recent years, but has recorded a rapid year-on-year increase of approximately 81.7% in 2016. As part of the framework for developing the free trade zone, the Fujian government has also been promoting the tourism industry in Pingtan with plans to develop coastal resort areas and granting funds to support infrastructure projects, which are expected to encourage further investment incentive, creating a strong demand in the property market. Having considered the location of the land, its development potentials and recent comparable transactions in Pingtan comprehensive experimental zone, the Directors consider that the acquisition represents a prime opportunity for the Group to leverage the expertise of the Group's management team and Mr. Lin's strong presence in the Fujian property market, and thus enhancing long-term growth potentials of the Group.

Jinan Zhangqiu project

On 23 August 2017, Fuzhou Shangsheng Investment Limited*(福州上盛投資 有限公司), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the sole shareholder of Zhangqiu Zhengda Tianyuan Development Limited* (章丘正大天源置業有限公司) ("ZQ Zhengda Tianyuan Development") entered into an agreement, pursuant to which Fuzhou Shangsheng Investment Limited* (福州上盛投資有限公司) conditionally agreed to acquire 80% of the issued share capital of ZQ Zhengda Tianyuan Development (the "Jinan Zhangqiu project"). ZQ Zhengda Tianyuan Development was incorporated in the PRC with limited liability in 2014. It is principally engaged in property development and has completed the development of three projects in Zhangqiu district of Jinan City with an aggregate area of 241,109 square metres. These projects involve the construction of relocation housings and other residential buildings in Zhangqiu district. All construction work of these projects has been completed. Subsequent to the announcement of the Fujian Pingtan project, the Board targets to further enhance its existing property development business by way of acquisition. The Board in substance aims at acquiring the land to increase its land bank in economically vibrant cities where the residential property markets are of promising prospects. The aforementioned land is located in Zhangqiu district of Jinan City and the Board is optimistic about the prospects of Jinan's residential property market.

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The Directors consider that the acquisition can enhance the long-term growth potentials of the Group leveraging on the expertise of the Group's management team and Mr. Lin's strong presence in the PRC property market.

Contingent liabilities

As at 31 December 2017, the group has issued guarantees to banks to secure the mortgage arrangement of property buyers. The outstanding guarantees to the banks amounted to $505,205,000 (2016: HK$Nil), which will be terminated upon the completion of the transfer procedures with the buyers in respect of the legal title of the properties.

The directors do not consider it probable that the group will sustain a loss under these guarantees as the bank has the rights to sell the property and recovers the outstanding loan balance from the sale proceeds if the property buyers default payment. The group has not recognised any deferred income in respect of these guarantees as its fair value is considered to be minimal by the directors.

Foreign exchange risk

The functional currency of the Company and its major subsidiaries is RMB, in which most of their transactions and assets are denominated. The Group has exposure to USD exchange risk arising from its bonds in an amount of US$135.0 million issued during the year. The Group has not taken any measures to hedge the foreign currency exposure currently but will monitor closely the situation and review such a need from time to time.

Review of Operations

In 2017, the real estate market continued to focus on the top 100 property enterprises under the macroeconomic control. The Chinese government proposed to accelerate the establishment of housing system such as "multi-agent supply", "multi-channel protection" and "lease/purchase option" so as to maintain the continuity and stability of the control policies imposed on the real estate market. The government has strived to perfect an effective mechanism to promote the steady and healthy development of the real estate market in the long run.

The Group's principal activities are property development and property investment. During the year under review, none of the Group's properties were leased out or sold and there was no progress in respect of the Group's Yifu Land development project in Shenyang. The Group will continue holding the investment properties for capital appreciation, and will actively seek commercial opportunities at the same time to lease out the investment properties or carry out cooperation so as to contribute income and cash flow to the Group as soon as possible. The Group will pay close attention to the changes in policies, economic environment and property market, actively vitalize the Group's assets to obtain

Final approval for the master layout plan has not yet been obtained, mainly due to a number of issues which the Group and the government are still working together for a resolution. Notwithstanding the delay in getting final approval for the master layout plan, the Group has received acknowledgement from the relevant government department that the delay was not caused by the Group and therefore they will continue to provide assistance to the Group and work with other relevant authorities to resolve these problems.

The Company will be required to obtain a license for planning of construction projects (建設工程規劃許可證); and construction permits (施工證) before the commencement of the construction and permits for pre-sales prior to the commencement of the pre-sale of the properties. Leveraging on the in-depth knowledge of the Board members in the property development market, the Board considers that there is no foreseeable difficulties in obtaining the aforementioned licenses.

Preliminary development plan of the Jinan Land

The Company intends to develop the Jinan Land (a parcel of land located in Zhangqiu district of Jinan City with an area of approximately 60,032 sqm for residential use) into multistory westernstyle houses and high-rise residential towers, basement car park lots, activity rooms, and underground storage units.

HK$3.564 billion). The Group intends to finance the capital commitment by the internal resources (including but not limited to revenue generated from the pre-sales of the projects) and/or the Revolving Facility.

The Company will be required to obtain license for planning of construction projects and construction permits before the commencement of the construction and permits for pre-sales prior to the commencement of the pre-sale of the properties. Leveraging on the Board's experience, expertise and in-depth knowledge of the property development market in the PRC, the Board is of the view that there is not any foreseeable difficulties in obtaining the aforementioned licenses.

Land Bank

In 2017, the Group acquired 2 parcels of land. The newly acquired land has a total site area of 257,654.41 square metres and a total gross floor area of 830,191.16 square metres, with an average land cost amounting to approximately RMB3,309.37 (excluding underground area). As of 31 December 2017, save for the undeveloped commercial land with a site area of 31,376 square metres and the acquired undeveloped land with a total site area of 257,654.41 square metres, the Group's land bank has a total gross floor area of approximately 830,191.16 square metres.

Outlook and Plan

Capitalizing on Sansheng Group's brand, capital, professional experience and its excellent workforce, the Group has been actively acquiring quality land for its land bank resources by adhering to its principle of focusing on acquisitions as well as cooperation, and being supported by the participation in public land auctions. Meanwhile, the Group will pursue industrial and real estate integration in order to attain significant enhancement on the number and quality of land acquired.

The JV Company established by the Group and Fuzhou Sansheng during the year will provide a new platform for the Group to integrate their resources, capabilities and industry expertise, so as to focus on the development of property development business in the PRC. Following its establishment, the JV Company will participate in residential and commercial property development projects located in economically vibrant cities.

All the properties invested in and held by the Group are commercial properties. In order to enhance the returns from the properties and its capitalization, the Group will from time to time review its property portfolio and make every endeavour to increase its rental income. Over the past 30 years, given the rapid urbanization and continual increase in average income per capita brought by the significant economic growth in the PRC, the real estate market has become more maturely developed. The Group believes that the development of such

- I-29 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

business will further drive the growth of the Groups in view of the promising residential property market in the PRC. Furthermore, more diversified property portfolio can alleviate the Group's reliance on commercial properties.

In the coming year, it is believed that lingering uncertainties in macroscopic policies in respect of the real estate industry promulgated by the government and ever-changing economic environment may give rise to various performances in different real estate market. However, we believe that long-term fundamental factors that fuel the growth in PRC's property market will remain unchanged. Accordingly, in order to develop the PRC's property market, the Group will closely monitor the changes in market conditions and governmental policies, input resources for deeper research and business development, and look for appropriate opportunities through careful selection of investment choices. Riding steadfastly on strategic geographical layout, building of excellent and highly efficient workforce, and development of sophisticated products and quality services, the Group maintains its competitiveness and promising prospect with an expectation to become a leading real estate developer in the PRC with excellent operational efficiency and profitability in the near future.

Employees

As at 31 December 2017, the Group employed a total of 22 employees, 19 of them were based in Mainland China. Staff costs (excluding directors' emoluments) for the year ended 31 December 2017 amounted to approximately HK$12.2 million (2016: HK$17.1 million). The Group ensures that the pay levels of its employees are competitive and in line with the market trend and its employees are rewarded on a performance related basis within the general framework of the Group's salary and bonus system.

IV. FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016

Financial Review

Turnover

As the Group's investment properties remained vacant throughout the year, no turnover was recorded for the year ended 31 December 2016. However, the Group's main income source during the year continued to be deriving from the provisioning of project management services which is accounted for as other income.

Loss/Profit for the Year Attributable to Owners of the Company

Loss for the year attributable to owners of the Company amounted to approximately HK$31.0 million as comparing to a profit of approximately HK$17.2 million in the previous year. During the year, the Group's investment properties continued to remain vacant and did not generate any rental income and the Group's main income source continued to rely on interest income from its

- I-30 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

bank deposits and project management services fee from its parent company, Lifestyle International Holdings Limited, before July 2016 and a related company, Lifestyle China Group, after July 2016.

The turnaround from last year's profit to loss this year was mainly caused by the provision for impairment in the amount of approximately HK$29.1 million in respect of the Group's 10% unlisted equity investment in the PRC, coupled by expensing, rather than capitalizing as properties under development during the year, the amortised prepaid lease payments of HK$8.4 million with respect to the Yifu Land.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses comprised mainly property related expenses and tax, utilities charges, legal and professional fees and rental expenses. The higher operating expenses this year was due mainly to a donation of RMB3.0 million (approximately HK$3.5 million) made to the Harbin local government.

Other Income, Gains and Losses

These mainly comprised bank interest income and project management services income and net exchange gain. While project management services income remained relatively stable during the year, the increase in other income, gains and losses was attributable to higher exchange gain recorded primarily from translating HKD/USD denominated bank balances to Renminbi, the Company's functional currency, which depreciated for more than 5% during the year. This higher exchange gain however was partly offset by a drop in bank interest income as deposit rates for HKD/USD were much lower than deposit rates for Renminbi in which the Group's bank balances was denominated for most part of last year before they were converted into USD in the second half of last year.

Staff Costs

Staff costs for the year increased 10.7% to approximately HK$20.9 million which was mainly due to an increase in director's emolument following the appointment of an additional executive director in March 2016.

Depreciation and Amortisation

The significant increase during the year was a result of charging to the profit and loss account of the amortised prepaid lease payments of HK$8.4 million in respect of the Group's Yifu Land. The same has been capitalized in the past as part of the properties under development. The change in accounting treatment was due to the fact that there has been a long delay in getting approval from the relevant government authorities in respect of the master layout plan and hence prolonged construction work postponement is anticipated.

- I-31 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Financial Investments and Net Investment Loss

The Group recorded during the year an aggregate investment loss of approximately HK$32.2 million which mainly comprised (i) mark-to market unrealized loss of HK$3.6 million on the Group's listed financial assets; and (ii) provision for impairment in respect of the Group's 10% unlisted equity investment in Shenyang Jiajian Property Development Company Limited ("Jiajian"), amounting to approximately HK$29.1 million.

As part of the Group's cash management with an aim to enhance the yield on the cash, the Group started during the year building a small investment portfolio consisting of Hong Kong listed equity securities and as at 31 December 2016, the market value of the investment portfolio was approximately HK$91.2 million.

The financial position of Jiajian, in which the Group has been maintaining

10% interest, has been deteriorating in recent years amid the oversupply situation in the commercial property sector in Shenyang. Management is of the view that the operation and financial position of Jiajian is unlikely to turn any better in the foreseeable future and it would be appropriate and prudent to make full impairment provision for this investment.

Fair Value Changes on Investment Properties

The unrealised fair value loss of HK$0.9 million was from the Group's investment properties situated in Hong Kong, whereas it was an unrealized fair value gain of HK$3.0 million in 2015.

Liquidity and Financial Resources

As at 31 December 2016, the Group was debt free and had no contracted financial instrument. Fixed deposits and cash and bank balances amounted to approximately HK$414.7 million (2015: HK$533.0 million), of which approximately 86% were held at banks in Hong Kong (2015: 88%) and the remaining approximately 14% were deposited with banks in the PRC (2015: 12%). Approximately 16% of the bank balances are denominated in RMB and the remaining are in USD and HKD. As mentioned above, as part of the Group's cash management, certain cash has been used for purchase of listed equity securities which was worth approximately HK$91.2 million at 31 December 2016. The Group did not have any banking facilities available at 31 December 2016 (2015: nil) but will make appropriate banking facility arrangements when required.

Pledge of Assets

At 31 December 2016, none of the Group's assets was pledged (2015: none).

Foreign Exchange Risk

The functional currency of the Company and its major subsidiaries is RMB in which most of their transactions and assets are denominated. The Group does not have significant foreign currency transactions which may expose the Group to foreign currency risk, apart from holding certain bank balances and payment of certain administrative expenses which are denominated in USD and HKD. The Group has not taken any measures to hedge the foreign currency exposure but will monitor closely the situation and review from time to time such a need.

Review of Operations

The Group's principal activities are property development and property investment. During the year under review, none of the Group's properties were leased out or sold and that there was no progress in respect of the Group's Yifu Land development project in Shenyang.

Leveraging the management team's extensive experience in property development and project management, the Group continued to provide project management services to connected parties during the year. These services are charged on a cost-plus basis and constitute continuing connected transaction for the Group.

Property Investment

The Group's portfolio of investment properties includes certain office units/ workshops and a car park space in Hong Kong and two retail properties each in Harbin and Qingdao in mainland China. During the year, no offers received by the Group for renting or buying of the Group's investment properties were attractive enough, both in terms of the price/rental as well as the amount of space they are willing to lease, and hence the properties have been left vacant throughout the

- I-33 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

year. While the Group's priority is still to look for buyers for disposing of these investment properties, the Group may consider leasing them out for rental income should attractive offers arise.

Property Development

The Group's only project under development is still the Yifu Land project in Shenyang and the Group has not secured new project for development purpose during the year. Based on the master layout plan ("MLP") the Group submitted to the relevant Planning Bureau in 2013, the plan was to develop a commercial complex with a three-level basement consisting of retail shops, offices, serviced apartment and car parking spaces on this Yifu Land. Final approval for the MLP has not yet been obtained due to a number of issues which the Group and the local government are still working together for a resolution. Notwithstanding the delay in getting approval for the MLP, the Group has received acknowledgement from the District Government Office that they understand the delay was not caused by the Group and therefore they will continue to lend assistance to the Group and work with other relevant authorities to resolve the problem. Accordingly, the Group will continue to work closely with the relevant government authorities to getting the necessary approvals and permits for commencing construction work. In view of the complexity of the issues involved, there is no guarantee as to the time required to resolve the issues. On the other hand, in view of the change of the competitive landscape in the commercial/retail property market in Shenyang, the Group will take into account the then market conditions and will evaluate again the cost and return on this project before incurring significant development costs. During the year, there was minimal preparation/ development works being carried out on the site as a result.

Outlook and Plan

In view of the prolonged delay in getting the relevant approval for the MLP for starting the construction work with respect to the Yifu Land, the Group is not under pressure to raising cash for funding the construction works and therefore it may take its time in terms of monetarizing its investment properties on hand. The Group however will continue to look for buyers or tenants so as to maximize to the extent possible returns on these properties. At the same time, the Group will continue utilising its human capital in providing project management services to Lifestyle China Group for generating stable income and cash flow to the Group.

While the Group will continue to look for new business opportunities, given the uncertainties in the overall economy and property market in both mainland China and Hong Kong, the Group will remain cautious in terms of seeking expansion or acquisition opportunities.

As at 30 September 2019, the Enlarged Group has lease liabilities with outstanding principal amount of approximately RMB4,826,000.

Save as aforementioned and apart from intra-group liabilities, as at the close of business on 30 September 2019, the Enlarged Group did not have any other outstanding borrowings, loan capital issued and outstanding or agreed to be issued, bank overdrafts,

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

loans or other similar indebtedness, liabilities under acceptances (other than normal trade bills), acceptance credits, debentures, mortgages, charges, finance leases, hire purchase commitments, guarantees or other material contingent liabilities.

4. WORKING CAPITAL

The Directors are of the opinion that, taking into account the effects of the Acquisition, the internal resources presently available to the Group, in the absence of unforeseeable circumstances, the Group has sufficient working capital for its present requirements, that is, for at least the next twelve months from the date of this circular.

5. MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors were not aware of any material adverse change in the financial or trading position of the Group since 31 December 2018, being the date to which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Group were made up.

6. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

The Group is principally engaged in property development and sale, and property investment. As disclosed in the interim report for the six months period ended 30 June 2019, the Group has obtained a quality project through acquisition, which has contributed to its land bank and has laid a cornerstone for its property development business in the future. Riding on the substantial experience and professionalism of Sansheng Group Limited which is controlled by Mr. Lin and Ms. Cheng, and adhering to the aim of developing high quality residential products and services to customers, the Group has won market recognition and achieved its performance target. The Group will closely monitor the changes in macroeconomic policies of the China's real estate industry, accelerate the innovation, actively adjust the strategic plan and achieve the development targets with its competitive strengths. The Group intends to actively explore possible business opportunities and strive for a sustainable development while enlarging the income from the existing investment properties, and to conduct more land acquisitions, especially to maintain sufficient land bank in the PRC market.

In 2019, the Group acquired additional land parcels by bid, auction and listing or directly from Independent Third Parties and the Acquisition will allow the Group to leverage on Mr. Lin's experience and network in the property market in the PRC, in particular the Fujian Province. It is expected that the Acquisition will further expand its reserve of new high-quality land bank and will further strengthen its revenue stream given certain property projects developed by the Project Companies are expected to complete by the end of 2019.

Following the Completion, the Group will continue to be principally engaged in the business of property development and sale, and property investment, and continue to explore the business opportunities which would strengthen profitability under the acceptable risk and expand its reserve of new high-quality land resources.

  1. ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT ON HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION TO THE DIRECTORS OF SANSHENG HOLDINGS (GROUP) CO. LTD.

Introduction

We report on the historical financial information of Time Fortune Investments Limited (the "Target Company") and its subsidiaries (together, the "Target Group") set out on pages II-4 to II-58, which comprises the combined statements of financial position of the Target Group as at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019, the combined statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the combined statements of changes in equity and the combined statements of cash flows, for each of the years ended 2016, 2017 and 2018 and the five months ended 31 May 2019 (the "Relevant Periods"), and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (together, the "Historical Financial Information"). The Historical Financial Information set out on pages II-4 to II-58 forms an integral part of this report, which has been prepared for inclusion in the circular of Sansheng Holdings (Group) Co. Ltd. (the "Company") dated 25 November 2019 (the "Circular") in connection with the proposed acquisition of the entire issued share capital of the Target Company by the Company.

Directors' responsibility for Historical Financial Information

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of Historical Financial Information that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in note 1 to the Historical Financial Information.

The Underlying Financial Statements of the Target Group as defined on page II-4, on which the Historical Financial Information is based, were prepared by the directors of the Target Company. The directors of the Target Company are responsible for the preparation of the Underlying Financial Statements that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA"), and for such internal control as the directors of the Target Company determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the Underlying Financial Statements that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Reporting accountants' responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Historical Financial Information and to report our opinion to you. We conducted our work in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Investment Circular Reporting Engagements 200 "Accountants' Reports on Historical Financial Information in Investment Circulars" issued by the HKICPA. This

- II-1 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

standard requires that we comply with ethical standards and plan and perform our work to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Financial Information is free from material misstatement.

Our work involved performing procedures to obtain evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Financial Information. The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountants' judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the Historical Financial Information, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the reporting accountants consider internal control relevant to the entity's preparation of Historical Financial Information that give a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in note 1 to the Historical Financial Information in order to design procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Our work also included evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Historical Financial Information.

We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Historical Financial Information gives, for the purpose of the accountants' report, a true and fair view of the Target Group's financial position as at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019 and of the Target Group's financial performance and cash flows for the Relevant Periods in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in note 1 to the Historical Financial Information.

Review of stub period corresponding financial information

We have reviewed the stub period corresponding financial information of the Target Group which comprises the combined statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the combined statement of changes in equity and the combined statement of cash flows for the five months ended 31 May 2018 and other explanatory information (the "Stub Period Corresponding Financial Information"). The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Stub Period Corresponding Financial Information in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in note 1 to the Historical Financial Information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Stub Period Corresponding Financial Information based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the HKICPA. 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 Hong Kong 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. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Stub Period Corresponding Financial

Pursuant to the announcement dated 27 September 2019 (the "Announcement"), Total Prestige Holdings Limited (the "Purchaser"), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a sale and purchase agreement to conditionally acquire the entire issued share capital of Time Fortune Investments Limited (the "Target Company") from Mega Regal Limited ("Mega Regal" or "Vendor") which is controlled by Mr. Lin Rongbin.

The Target Company was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands ("BVI") on 31 May 2019 and is an investment holding company which has not carried on any business since the date of its incorporation save for the reorganisation below. The Target Company and its subsidiaries (together, the "Target Group") are principally engaged in property investment and development and sales of commercial properties and residential properties in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC") (the "Relevant Businesses").

Prior to the incorporation of the Target Company, the Relevant Businesses were conducted through four domestic project companies established in the PRC, namely Fujian Shengchuang Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., Fuzhou Hongsheng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., Zhangzhou Deyousheng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. and Fujian Tianren Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., all of which are indirectly controlled by Mr. Lin Rongbin. To facilitate the Purchaser's proposed acquisition of the Target Company, the Target Group underwent a reorganisation (the "Reorganisation") as disclosed in the section headed "Information on the Target Group" in the Circular. Upon completion of the Reorganisation on 30 September 2019, the Target Company became the holding company of the Target Group.

Prior to and after the Reorganisation, the companies now comprising the Target Group were under the common control of Mr. Lin Rongbin. The control is not transitory and, consequently, there was a continuation of risks and benefits to Mr. Lin Rongbin. Accordingly, the Reorganisation is treated as a combination of businesses under common control, and the Historical Financial Information has been prepared and presented using the merger basis of accounting as if the Target Group has always been in existence throughout the Relevant Periods. The net assets of the companies now comprising the Target Group are combined using the existing book values from the perspective of Mr. Lin Rongbin.

The combined statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, combined statements of changes in equity and combined statements of cash flows of the Target Group for the Relevant Periods include the financial performance and cash flows of the companies now comprising the Target Group as if the current group structure had been in existence and remained unchanged throughout the Relevant Periods. The combined statements of financial position of the Target Group as at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019 as set out in this report have been prepared to present the financial position of the companies now comprising the Target Group as at those dates as if the current group structure had been in existence as at the respective dates.

Intra-group balances and transactions are eliminated in full in preparing the Historical Financial Information.

As of the date of this report, no audited financial statements have been prepared for the Target Company, as it is not subject to statutory audit requirement under relevant rules and regulations in the jurisdiction of incorporation.

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

  • Pursuant to certain contractual arrangements, Yiwu Chunchun Investment Management Partnership (Limited Partnership)**(義烏淳醇投資管理合夥企業(有限合夥))("Yiwu Chunchun"), an independent third party, holds 20% of ownership interests in Fuzhou Shengchun which is subject to a guaranteed return from this shareholdings and shall be purchased by Fujian Shengchuang upon the end of the investment period. As such, the investment in Fuzhou Shengchun by Yiwu Chunchun is treated as a debt and no non-controlling interest with respect to the independent third party is accounted for.
    Notes:
    1. At the date of the report, no audited financial statements have been prepared for these entities, as they were newly incorporated companies and have not carried on any business since the date of incorporation.
    2. At the date of the report, no audited financial statements have been prepared for these entities, as they are not subject to audit requirements under the relevant rules and regulations in the jurisdiction of incorporation.
    3. The statutory auditors of these entities are Fujian Junzheng Certified Public Accountants Co., Ltd.** (福建鈞正會計師事務所有限公司)during the Relevant Periods.
  • The English translation of the company names is for reference only. The official names of the companies are in Chinese.

All companies now comprising the Target Group have adopted 31 December as their financial year end

date.

The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with all applicable Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRSs") which collective term includes all applicable individual HKFRSs, Hong Kong Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the HKICPA. Further details of the significant accounting policies adopted are set out in note 2.

The HKICPA has issued a number of new and revised HKFRSs. For the purpose of preparing this Historical Financial Information, the Target Group has adopted all applicable new and revised HKFRSs that are effective for the financial year beginning on 1 January 2019 throughout the Relevant Periods, including HKFRS 9, Financial instruments, HKFRS 15, Revenue from contracts with customers and HKFRS 16, Lease.

The revised and new accounting standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective for the accounting year beginning 1 January 2019 which the Target Group has not early adopted are set out in note 29.

The Historical Financial Information also complies with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange").

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the Historical Financial Information.

The Stub Period Corresponding Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the same basis of preparation and presentation adopted in respect of the Historical Financial Information.

2 Significant accounting policies

  1. Basis of measurement

The measurement basis used in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information is the historical cost basis except that the following assets are stated at their fair value as explained in the accounting policies set out below:

  • investment properties (see note 2(d)); and
  • financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

- II-13 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

The functional currency of the Target Company is Hong Kong dollar ("HKD"). The Historical Financial Information presented in RMB have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise indicated.

  1. Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of Historical Financial Information in conformity with HKFRSs requires management to make judgments, 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 judgments 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 HKFRSs that have significant effect on the Historical Financial Information and major sources of estimation uncertainty are discussed in note 3.

  1. Interests in other entities
    1. Subsidiaries and non-controlling interests

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Target Group. The Target Group 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 Target Group has power, only substantive rights (held by the Target Group and other parties) are considered.

An investment in a subsidiary is included in the Historical 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 Historical 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 Target Company, and in respect of which the Target Group has not agreed any additional terms with the holders of those interests which would result in the Target Group 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 Target Group 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 combined statement of financial position within equity, separately from equity attributable to the equity shareholders of the Target Company. Non-controlling interests in the results of the Target Group are presented on the face of the combined statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as an allocation of the total profit or loss and total comprehensive income for the year/period between non-controlling interests and the equity shareholders of the Target Company. Loans from holders of non-controlling interests and other contractual obligation towards these holders are presented as financial liabilities in the combined statement of financial position in accordance with notes 2(k) or 2(l) depending on the nature of the liability.

Changes in the Target Group's interest 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 combined equity to reflect the change in relative interests, but no adjustments are made to goodwill and no gain or loss is recognised.

- II-14 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

When the Target Group 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. Any interest retained in that former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is recognised at fair value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset or, when appropriate, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture.

  1. Joint operations

Joint operations are joint arrangements in which the parties with joint control have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement. The activities of a joint operations are primarily designed for the provision of output to the parties to the arrangement, indicating that:

  • the parties have the rights to substantially all the economic benefits of the assets of the arrangement; and
  • all liabilities are satisfied by the joint participants through their purchase of that output. This indicates that, in substance, the joint participants have an obligation for the liabilities of the arrangement.

The Historical Financial Information of the Target Group include its share of the assets in joint operations, together with its share of the liabilities, revenues and expenses arising jointly or otherwise form those operations and its revenue derived from the sales of its share of output from the joint operation. All such amounts are measured in accordance with the terms of each arrangement, which are usually in proportion to the Group's interest in the joint operation.

  1. Investment properties

Investment properties are land and/or buildings which are owned or held under a leasehold interest (see note 2(f)) to earn rental income and/or for capital appreciation. These include land held for a currently undetermined future use and property that is being constructed or developed for future use as investment property.

Investment properties are stated at fair value, unless they are still in the course of construction or development at the end of the reporting period and their fair value cannot be reliably measured at that time. Any gain or loss arising from a change in fair value or from the retirement or disposal of an investment property is recognised in profit or loss. Rental income from investment properties is accounted for as described in note 2(q)(ii).

  1. Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see note 2(g)).

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment, less their estimated residual value, if any, using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

-

Leasehold improvements

3 years

-

Other properties leased for own use

2-3

years

-

Equipment and motor vehicles

3-5

years

Both the useful life of an asset and its residual value, if any, are reviewed annually.

Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised in profit or loss on the date of retirement or disposal.

- II-15 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

Construction in progress represents buildings and property and plant under construction, and is stated at cost less impairment losses (see note 2(g)). Cost comprises direct costs of construction. Capitalisation of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to property and plant when substantially all of the activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are complete.

No depreciation is provided in respect of construction in progress until it is substantially completed and ready for its intended use.

  1. Leased assets

At inception of a contract, the Target Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control is conveyed where the customer has both the right to direct the use of the identified asset and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from that use.

  1. As a lessee

Where the contract contains lease component(s) and non-lease component(s), the Target Group has elected not to separate non-lease components and accounts for each lease component and any associated non-lease components as a single lease component for all leases.

At the lease commencement date, the Target Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, except for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets which, for the Target Group are primarily laptops and office furniture. When the Target Group enters into a lease in respect of a low-value asset, the Target Group decides whether to capitalise the lease on a lease-by-lease basis. The lease payments associated with those leases which are not capitalised are recognised as an expense on a systematic basis over the lease term.

Where the lease is capitalised, the lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments payable over the lease term, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, using a relevant incremental borrowing rate. After initial recognition, the lease liability is measured at amortised cost and interest expense is calculated using the effective interest method. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and hence are charged to profit or loss in the accounting period in which they are incurred.

The right-of-use asset recognised when a lease is capitalised is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability plus any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, and any initial direct costs incurred. Where applicable, the cost of the right-of-use assets also includes an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, discounted to their present value, less any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see notes 2(e) and 2(g)(iii)), except for the following types of right-of-use asset:

  • right-of-useassets that meet the definition of investment property are carried at fair value in accordance with note 2(d); and
  • right-of-useassets related to interests in leasehold land where the interest in the land is held as inventory are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value in accordance with note 2(h).

The lease liability is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, or there is a change in the Target Group's estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or there is a change arising from the reassessment of whether the Target Group will be reasonably certain to exercise a purchase, extension or termination option. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

- II-16 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

The Target Group presents right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property and inventory in "property, plant and equipment" and presents lease liabilities in "trade and other payables".

  1. As a lessor

When the Target Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease inception whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of an underlying assets to the lessee. If this is not the case, the lease is classified as an operating lease.

When a contract contains lease and non-lease components, the Target Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each component on a relative stand-alone selling price basis. The rental income from operating leases is recognised in accordance with note 2(q)(ii).

When the Target Group is an intermediate lessor, the sub-leases are classified as a finance lease or as an operating lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease. If the head lease is a short-term lease to which the Target Group applies the exemption described in note 2(f)(i), then the Target Group classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease.

  1. Credit losses and impairment of assets
    1. Credit losses from financial instruments and lease receivables

The Target Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) on the following

items:

  • financial assets measured at amortised cost (including cash and cash equivalents, restricted deposits, trade and other receivables); and
  • lease receivables.

Financial assets measured at fair value like units in trust protection funds are not subject to the ECL assessment.

Measurement of ECLs

ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all expected cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the Target Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Target Group expects to receive).

The expected cash shortfalls are discounted using the following discount rates where the effect of discounting is material:

  • fixed-ratefinancial assets, trade and other receivables: effective interest rate determined at initial recognition or an approximation thereof;
  • variable-ratefinancial assets: current effective interest rate;
  • lease receivables: discount rate used in the measurement of the lease receivables.

The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Target Group is exposed to credit risk.

In measuring ECLs, the Target Group takes into account reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort. This includes information about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

- II-17 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

ECLs are measured on either of the following bases:

  • 12-monthECLs: these are losses that are expected to result from possible default events within the 12 months after the reporting date; and
  • lifetime ECLs: these are losses that are expected to result from all possible default events over the expected lives of the items to which the ECL model applies.

Loss allowances for trade receivables and lease receivables are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. ECLs on these financial assets are estimated using a provision matrix based on the Target Group's historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors and an assessment of both the current and forecast general economic conditions at the reporting date.

For all other financial instruments, the Target Group recognises a loss allowance equal to 12-month ECLs unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk of the financial instrument since initial recognition, in which case the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

Significant increases in credit risk

In assessing whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Target Group compares the risk of default occurring on the financial instrument assessed at the reporting date with that assessed at the date of initial recognition. In making this reassessment, the Target Group considers that a default event occurs when the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Target Group in full, without recourse by the Target Group to actions such as realising security (if any is held). The Target Group considers both quantitative and qualitative information that is reasonable and supportable, including historical experience and forward-looking information that is available without undue cost or effort.

In particular, the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition:

  • failure to make payments of principal or interest on their contractually due dates;
  • an actual or expected significant deterioration in a financial instrument's external or internal credit rating (if available);
  • an actual or expected significant deterioration in the operating results of the debtor; and
  • existing or forecast changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment that have a significant adverse effect on the debtor's ability to meet its obligation to the Target Group.

Depending on the nature of the financial instruments, the assessment of a significant increase in credit risk is performed on either an individual basis or a collective basis. When the assessment is performed on a collective basis, the financial instruments are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics, such as past due status and credit risk ratings.

ECLs are remeasured at each reporting date to reflect changes in the financial instrument's credit risk since initial recognition. Any change in the ECL amount is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss. The Target Group recognises an impairment gain or loss for all financial instruments with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account, except for investments in debt securities that are measured at FVOCI (recycling), for which the loss allowance is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the fair value reserve (recycling).

- II-18 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

Basis of calculation of interest income

Interest income is calculated based on the gross carrying amount of the financial asset unless the financial asset is credit-impaired, in which case interest income is calculated based on the amortised cost (i.e. the gross carrying amount less loss allowance) of the financial asset.

At each reporting date, the Target Group assesses whether a financial asset is credit-impaired. A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable events:

  • significant financial difficulties of the debtor;
  • a breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
  • it becoming probable that the borrower will enter into bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
  • significant changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment that have an adverse effect on the debtor; or
  • the disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties of the issuer.

Write-off policy

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset or lease receivable is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Target Group determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off.

Subsequent recoveries of an asset that was previously written off are recognised as a reversal of impairment in profit or loss in the period in which the recovery occurs.

  1. Credit losses from financial guarantees issued

Financial guarantees are contracts that require the issuer (i.e. the guarantor) to make specified payments to reimburse the beneficiary of the guarantee (the "holder") for a loss the holder incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.

Financial guarantees issued are initially recognised within "trade and other payables" at fair value, which is determined by reference to fees charged in an arm's length transaction for similar services, when such information is obtainable, or to interest rate differentials, by comparing the actual rates charged by lenders when the guarantee is made available with the estimated rates that lenders would have charged, had the guarantees not been available, where reliable estimates of such information can be made. Where consideration is received or receivable for the issuance of the guarantee, the consideration is recognised in accordance with the Target Group's policies applicable to that category of asset. Where no such consideration is received or receivable, an immediate expense is recognised in profit or loss.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the amount initially recognised as deferred income is amortised in profit or loss over the term of the guarantee as income from financial guarantees issued.

The Target Group monitors the risk that the specified debtor will default on the contract and recognises a provision when ECLs on the financial guarantees are determined to be higher than the amount carried in "trade and other payables" in respect of the guarantees (i.e. the amount initially recognised, less accumulated amortisation).

- II-19 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

To determine ECLs, the Target Group considers changes in the risk of default of the specified debtor since the issuance of the guarantee. A 12-month ECL is measured unless the risk that the specified debtor will default has increased significantly since the guarantee is issued, in which case a lifetime ECL is measured. The same definition of default and the same assessment of significant increase in credit risk as described in note 2(g)(i) apply.

As the Target Group is required to make payments only in the event of a default by the specified debtor in accordance with the terms of the instrument that is guaranteed, an ECL is estimated based on the expected payments to reimburse the holder for a credit loss that it incurs less any amount that the Target Group expects to receive from the holder of the guarantee, the specified debtor or any other party. The amount is then discounted using the current risk-free rate adjusted for risks specific to the cash flows.

  1. Impairment of other non-current assets

Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to identify indications that property, plant and equipment, including right-of-use assets 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.

  • 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).
  • 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. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (or group of units) on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less costs of disposal (if measurable) or value in use (if determinable).
  • Reversals of impairment losses
    In respect of assets other than goodwill, an impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.
    A reversal of an 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 year in which the reversals are recognised.

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

  1. Inventories and other contract costs
    1. Inventories

Inventories in respect of property development activities are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost and net realisable values are determined as follows:

  • Property held for sale and under development for sale
    The cost of properties under development for sale comprises specifically identified cost, including the acquisition cost of land, aggregate cost of development, materials and supplies, wages and other direct expenses, an appropriate proportion of overheads and borrowing costs capitalised (see note 2(r)). Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in selling the property.
  • Completed property held for sale
    The cost of completed properties held for sale comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

In the case of completed properties developed by the Target Group, cost is determined by apportionment of the total development costs for that development project, attributable to the unsold properties. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less costs to be incurred in selling the property.

When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised.

The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories is recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

  1. Other contract costs

Other contract costs are either the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer or the costs to fulfil a contract with a customer which are not capitalised as inventory (see note 2(h)(i)) or property, plant and equipment (see note 2(e)).

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that the Target Group incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained e.g. an incremental sales commission. Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are capitalised when incurred if the costs relate to revenue which will be recognised in a future reporting period and the costs are expected to be recovered. Other costs of obtaining a contract are expensed when incurred.

Costs to fulfil a contract are capitalised if the costs relate directly to an existing contract or to a specifically identifiable anticipated contract; generate or enhance resources that will be used to provide goods or services in the future; and are expected to be recovered. Costs that relate directly to an existing contract or to a specifically identifiable anticipated contract may include direct labour, direct materials, allocations of costs, costs that are explicitly chargeable to the customer and other costs that are incurred only because the Target Group entered into the contract (for example, payments to sub-contractors). Other costs of fulfilling a contract, which are not capitalised as inventory or property, plant and equipment, are expensed as incurred.

- II-21 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

Capitalised contract costs are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Impairment losses are recognised to the extent that the carrying amount of the contract cost asset exceeds the net of (i) remaining amount of consideration that the Target Group expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services to which the asset relates, less (ii) any costs that relate directly to providing those goods or services that have not yet been recognised as expenses.

Amortisation of capitalised contract costs is charged to profit or loss when the revenue to which the asset relates is recognised. The accounting policy for revenue recognition is set out in note 2(q).

  1. Contract liabilities

A contract liability is recognised when the customer pays consideration before the Target Group recognises the related revenue (see note 2(q)). A contract liability would also be recognised if the Target Group has an unconditional right to receive consideration before the Target Group recognises the related revenue. In such cases, a corresponding receivable would also be recognised (see note 2(j)).

When the contract includes a significant financing component, the contract balance includes interest accrued under the effective interest method (see note 2(r)).

  1. Trade and other receivables

A receivable is recognised when the Target Group has an unconditional right to receive consideration. A right to receive consideration is unconditional if only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due. If revenue has been recognised before the Target Group has an unconditional right to receive consideration, the amount is presented as a contract asset.

Receivables are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method less allowance for credit losses (see note 2(g)(i)).

  1. Interest-bearingborrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are measured initially at fair value less transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between the amount initially recognised and redemption value being recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings, together with any interest and fees payable, using the effective interest method.

  1. Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value. Except for financial guarantee liabilities measured in accordance with note 2(g)(ii), trade and other payables are subsequently stated at amortised cost unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

  1. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on 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. Cash and cash equivalents are assessed for expected credit losses (ECL) in accordance with the policy set out in note 2(g)(i).

  1. Employee benefits

Salaries, annual bonuses, paid annual leave, contributions to defined contribution retirement plans and the cost of non-monetary benefits are accrued in the year in which the associated services are rendered by employees. Where payment or settlement is deferred and the effect would be material, these amounts are stated at their present values.

- II-22 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

  1. Income tax

Income tax for the year 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 year, 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.

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. Future taxable profits that may support the recognition of deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences include those that will arise from the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, provided those differences relate to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity, and are expected to reverse either in the same period as the expected reversal of the deductible temporary difference or in periods into which a tax loss arising from the deferred tax asset can be carried back or forward. The same criteria are adopted when determining whether existing taxable temporary differences support the recognition of deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and credits, that is, those differences are taken into account if they relate to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity, and are expected to reverse in a period, or periods, in which the tax loss or credit can be utilised.

Where investment properties are carried at their fair value in accordance with the accounting policy set out in note 2(d), the amount of deferred tax recognised is measured using the tax rates that would apply on sale of those assets at their carrying value at the reporting date unless the property is depreciable and is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the property over time, rather than through sale. In all other cases, 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.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the related tax benefit to be utilised. Any such reduction is reversed to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

Current tax balances and deferred tax balances, and movements therein, are presented separately from each other and are not offset. Current tax assets are offset against current tax liabilities, and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities, if the Target Company or the Target Group has the legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the following additional conditions are met:

  • in the case of current tax assets and liabilities, the Target Company or the Target Group intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously; or
  • in the case of deferred tax assets and liabilities, if they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either:
    • the same taxable entity; or
    • different taxable entities, which, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered, intend to realise the current tax assets and settle the current tax liabilities on a net basis or realise and settle simultaneously.

- II-23 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

  1. Provisions and contingent liabilities

Provisions are recognised for other liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Target Group or the Target Company 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.

  1. Revenue and other income

Income is classified by the Target Group as revenue when it arises from the sale of goods, the provision of services or the use by others of the Target Group's assets under leases in the ordinary course of the Target Group's business.

Revenue is recognised when control over a product or service is transferred to the customer, or the lessee has the right to use the asset, at the amount of promised consideration to which the Target Group is expected to be entitled, excluding those amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Revenue excludes value added tax or other sales taxes and is after deduction of any trade discounts.

Where the contract contains a financing component which provides a significant financing benefit to the customer for more than 12 months, revenue is measured at the present value of the amount receivable, discounted using the discount rate that would be reflected in a separate financing transaction with the customer, and interest income is accrued separately under the effective interest method. Where the contract contains a financing component which provides a significant financing benefit to the Target Group, revenue recognised under that contract includes the interest expense accreted on the contract liability under the effective interest method. The Target Group takes advantage of the practical expedient in paragraph 63 of HKFRS 15 and does not adjust the consideration for any effects of a significant financing component if the period of financing is 12 months or less.

Further details of the Target Group's revenue and other income recognition policies are as follows:

  1. Sale of properties

Revenue arising from the sale of properties developed for sale in the ordinary course of business is recognised when the property is delivered to customer, which is the point in time when the customer has the ability to direct the use of the property and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the property. Deposits and instalments received on properties sold prior to the date of revenue recognition are included in the statement of financial position under contract liabilities (see note 2(i)).

When residential and commercial properties are marketed by the Target Group while the property is still under construction, the Target Group may offer a discount compared to the listed sales price, provided the customer agrees to pay the balance of the consideration early. In such cases, if the advance payments are regarded as providing a significant financing benefit to the Target Group, interest expense arising from the adjustment of time value of money will be accrued by the Target Group during the period between the payment date and the date of delivery of properties to the customers. This accrual increases the balance of the contract liability during the period of construction, and therefore increases the amount of revenue recognised when control of the completed property is transferred to the customer. The interest is expensed as accrued unless it is eligible to be capitalised under HKAS 23, Borrowing costs, in accordance with the policies set out in note 2(r).

- II-24 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

  1. Rental income from operating leases

Rental income receivable under operating leases is recognised in profit or loss in equal instalments over the periods covered by the lease term, except where an alternative basis is more representative of the pattern of benefits to be derived from the use of the leased asset. Lease incentives granted are recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of the aggregate net lease payments receivable. Contingent rentals are recognised as income in the accounting period in which they are earned.

  1. Interest income

Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method. For financial assets measured at amortised cost or FVOCI (recycling) that are not credit-impaired, the effective interest rate is applied to the gross carrying amount of the asset. For credit-impaired financial assets, the effective interest rate is applied to the amortised cost (i.e. gross carrying amount net of loss allowance) of the asset (see note 2(g)(i)).

  1. 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.

  1. Related parties
    1. A person, or a close member of that person's family, is related to the Target Group if that person:
      1. has control or joint control over the Target Group;
      2. has significant influence over the Target Group; or
      3. is a member of the key management personnel of the Target Group or the Target Group's parent.
    2. An entity is related to the Target Group if any of the following conditions applies:
      1. The entity and the Target Group are members of the same group (which means that each parent, subsidiary and fellow subsidiary is related to the others).
      2. One entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity (or an associate or joint venture of a member of a group of which the other entity is a member).
      3. Both entities are joint ventures of the same third party.
      4. One entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third entity.
      5. The entity is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the Target Group or an entity related to the Target Group.
      6. The entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in (a).
      7. A person identified in (a)(i) has significant influence over the entity or is a member of the key management personnel of the entity (or of a parent of the entity).

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

  1. The entity, or any member of a group of which it is a part, provides key management personnel services to the Target Group or to the Target Group's parent.

Close members of the family of a person are those family members who may be expected to influence, or be influenced by, that person in their dealings with the entity.

  1. Segment reporting

Operating segments, and the amounts of each segment item reported in the financial statements, are identified from the financial information provided regularly to the Target Group's most senior executive management for the purposes of allocating resources to, and assessing the performance of, the Target Group's various lines of business and geographical locations.

Individually material operating segments are not aggregated for financial reporting purposes unless the segments have similar economic characteristics and are similar in respect of the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, the type or class of customers, the methods used to distribute the products or provide the services, and the nature of the regulatory environment. Operating segments which are not individually material may be aggregated if they share a majority of these criteria.

The Target Group's operating activities are attributable to a single operating segment focusing on property investment and development and sales of commercial properties and residential properties in Mainland China. This operating segment has been identified on the basis of internal management reports prepared in accordance with accounting policies conform with HKFRS 8, that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). The CODM regularly reviews property portfolio by locations and considers them as one single operating segment since all properties are held by the Target Group for development and earning rental income. No revenue analysis, operating results or other discrete financial information is available for the assessment of performance of the respective locations.

3 Accounting judgement and estimates

  1. Critical accounting judgements in applying the Target Group's accounting policies

In the process of applying the Target Group's accounting policies, management has made the follow accounting judgements:

Classification between investment properties and properties held for sale

The Target Group develops properties held for sale and properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation. Judgement is made by management on determining whether a property is designated as an investment property or a property held for sale.

For purchased properties, the Target Group considers its intention for holding the properties at an early stage when initially obtaining control of the related properties. The related properties are accounted for as inventories included in current assets if the properties are intended for sale, whereas, the properties are accounted for as investment properties if the properties are intended to be held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation.

  1. Sources of estimation uncertainty

Notes 10 and 23 contain information about the assumptions and their risk factors relating to valuation of investment property and financial instruments. Other key sources of estimation uncertainty are as follows:

  1. Income tax

Deferred tax assets in respect of tax losses and other deductible temporary differences carried forward are recognised and measured based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of the assets, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. In determining the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets, expected taxable profits are estimated which involves a number of assumptions relating to the operating environment of the Target Group and

- II-26 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

require a significant level of judgement exercised by the directors. Any change in such assumptions and judgement would affect the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets to be recognised and hence the net profit in future years.

  1. Investment properties

As described in note 10, the fair value of the Target Group's investment properties situated in Mainland China had been arrived at based on a valuation carried out at that date by Jones Lang LaSalle Corporate Appraisal and Advisory Limited ("JLL"), an independent professional valuer. The fair values of the Target Group's investment properties at 31 December 2017, 2018 and 31 May 2019 were arrived at based on income approach.

At 31 December 2017, 2018 and 31 May 2019, the carrying amount of the Target Group's investment properties are disclosed in note 10. By relying on the valuation reports of the independent professional valuer, the management has exercised its judgment and is satisfied that the method of valuation is reflective of the market conditions prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Any changes in the market conditions will affect the fair value of the investment properties of the Target Group.

  1. Inventories

As explained in note 2(h), the Target Group's land held for future development, properties under development and completed properties held for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Based on the Target Group's recent experience and the nature of the subject property, the Target Group makes estimates of the selling price, the costs of completion in case for properties under development, and the costs to be incurred in selling the properties. If there is an increase in costs to completion or a decrease in net sales value, impairment provision for inventories may be resulted. Such provision requires the use of judgment and estimates. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, the carrying value and provision for properties in the periods in which such estimate is changed will be adjusted accordingly.

Given the volatility of Mainland China's property market and the distinctive nature of individual properties, the actual outcomes in terms of costs and revenue may be higher or lower than estimated at the end of the reporting period. Any increase or decrease in the provision would affect profit or loss in future years.

4 Revenue

The principal business activities of the Target Group include property investment and development and sales of commercial properties and residential properties. All the revenue are generated in Mainland China.

  1. Fair value hierarchy

The fair values of the Target Group's investment properties situated in Fuzhou, Mainland China at 31 December 2017, 31 December 2018 and 31 May 2019 had been arrived based on a valuation carried out by JLL, an independent qualified professional valuer not connected to the Target Group whose address is 7th Floor, One Taikoo Place 979 King's Road, Hong Kong. JLL is a member of the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors with recent

- II-32 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

experience in the location and category of property being valued. The Target Group's management have discussion with the surveyors on the valuation assumptions and valuation results when the valuation is performed for financial reporting.

In estimating the fair value of the properties, the highest and best use of the properties is their current use. The same valuation techniques were used when carrying out the valuations on respective date during the Relevant Periods.

The fair value of the Target Group's investment properties measured at the end of each reporting period on a recurring basis, are categorised into the three-level fair value hierarchy as defined in HKFRS 13, Fair value measurement. The level into which a fair value measurement is classified is determined with reference to the observability and significance of the inputs used in the valuation technique as set out below:

  • Level 1 valuations: Fair value measured using only Level 1 inputs i.e. unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date
  • Level 2 valuations: Fair value measured using Level 2 inputs i.e. observable inputs which fail to meet Level 1, and not using significant unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs are inputs for which market data are not available
  • Level 3 valuations: Fair value measured using significant unobservable inputs

The following table gives information about how the fair values of these investment properties are determined (in particular, the valuation techniques and inputs used), as well as the fair value hierarchy into which the fair value measurements are categorised.

properties.

In estimating the fair value of the Target Group's investment properties, the Target Group uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, the Target Group engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation of the Target Group's investment properties. At the end of each reporting period, the management of the Target Group works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish and determine the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The Target Group will first consider and adopt Level 2 inputs where inputs can be transaction prices or derived observable quoted prices in the active market. When Level 2 inputs are not available, the Target Group will adopt valuation techniques that include Level 3 inputs. Where there is a material change in the fair value of the assets, the causes of the fluctuations will be reported to the board of directors of the Target Company.

(漳州德友盛房地產開發有限公司) ("Zhangzhou Deyousheng")

Zhangzhou Deyousheng is engaged in two real estate development projects on separate land use rights it holds. They are Gulf Taiwu City* ("海灣 太武城", the "first project") and International Harbour* ("國際海岸", the "second project"). In 2013, Mr. Lin Rongbin became the controlling party of Zhangzhou Deyousheng and by December 2015, the first project had been substantially completed and delivered, with certain residual assets and liabilities subject to further disposition and settlement.

Xiamen Sansheng, a subsidiary of the Target Group, acquired 83.15% of the registered capital of Zhangzhou Deyousheng from Mr. Lin Rongbin and others in September 2015. Xiamen Sansheng further acquired the additional 16.85% of the registered capital of Zhangzhou Deyousheng in December 2017. For the purposes of defining and securing their respective interests in the first and the second projects, Xiamen Sansheng in conjunction with the acquisition of the second project in Zhangzhou Deyousheng entered into a contractual arrangement with Mr. Lin Rongbin in 2015. Under the arrangement, the parties undertook to jointly sustain the ongoing segregation of the business operations while maintaining their unilateral rights to manage the ongoing development and being fully exposed to the risks and rewards of their respective projects. As such, the parties' respective rights and obligations in Zhangzhou Deyousheng differ from the percentage of shareholdings in Zhangzhou Deyousheng. The contractual arrangement took effect from September 2015 and will remain effective until the remaining business dealings of the first project are fully completed. The impact to assets and liabilities of the Target Group is summarised as follows:

Contract costs capitalised as at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019 relate to the incremental sales commissions paid to property agents and employees whose selling activities resulted in customers entering into sale and purchase agreements for the Target Group's properties included in inventories at the reporting date. Contract costs are recognised as part of "selling and marketing expenses" in the statement of profit or loss in the period in which revenue from the related property sales is recognised. The amount of capitalised costs recognised in profit or loss during the years ended 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and five

- II-38 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

months ended 31 May 2018 and 2019 were RMB854,000, RMB5,354,000 and RMB4,551,000 and RMB2,131,000 and RMB599,000 respectively. There was no impairment in relation to the balance of capitalised costs or the costs capitalised during the years ended 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and five months ended 31 May 2018 and 2019 respectively.

The Target Group applies the practical expedient in paragraph 94 of HKFRS 15 and recognises the incremental costs of obtaining contracts relating to the sale of inventories as an expense when incurred if the amortisation period of the assets that the Target Group otherwise would have recognised is within the same reporting period as the date of entering into the contract.

The amount of capitalised contract costs that is expected to be recovered after more than one year were RMB1,515,000, RMB7,343,000 and RMB19,292,000 and RMB34,634,000 as at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019, respectively.

Notes:

  1. Mega Regal, the parent company of the Target Company will procure the amounts due from related parties to be fully settled upon completion of the proposed acquisition of the entire issued share capital of the Target Company.
  2. Management considers that the other receivables that were past due but not impaired was insignificant. Management considered there is not significant increase in credit risk and no possible default events for all other receivables expected within the 12 months after the reporting date. Accordingly, no expected credit loss is recorded. The Target Group does not hold any collateral over these balances.
  3. The amount of prepaid tax and surcharges expected to be recovered or recognised as expense after more than one year were RMB44,618,000, RMB146,899,000 and RMB363,807,000 and RMB508,375,000 at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019, respectively. All of remaining other receivables are expected to be recovered or recognised as expense within one year.
  4. Deposits during the Relevant Periods mainly included performance bond for the land transfer contract amounted to RMB100,000,000 which was paid to the State-owned Land Resources Bureau of Fuzhou city in 2016 and recovered in cash in 2019.

  1. Deferred tax assets not recognised

As at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019, the Target Group has not recognised deferred tax assets in respect of cumulative tax losses of RMB1,404,000, RMB992,000 and RMB1,704,000 and RMB2,732,000 respectively as it is not probable that future taxable income against which the losses can be utilized will be available in the relevant tax jurisdiction and entity. The tax losses of the Target Group's subsidiaries in Mainland China expire in 5 years from the year of the tax losses were incurred.

22 Capital, reserves and dividends

  1. Share capital

The Target Company was incorporated in BVI on 31 May 2019 with an initial authorised share capital of USD100 divided into 100 shares of par value of USD1 each. As at the date of this report, the share capital of the Target Company has not been paid up.

In January 2017, Fuzhou Sansheng Property Co., Ltd. ("Fuzhou Sansheng") made capital injection of RMB50,000,000 into Fuzhou Hongsheng. In January 2019, Fuzhou Shengchun acquired 100% equity interest of Fuzhou Hongsheng from Fuzhou Sansheng at a consideration of RMB50,000,000.

For the purposes of this report, the capital as at 1 January 2016, 31 December 2016, 31 December 2017, 31 December 2018, and 31 May 2019 represented the aggregated amount of the paid-in capital of the companies now comprising the Target Group at the respective dates, after the elimination of investments in subsidiaries.

  1. Capital management

The Target Group's primary objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Target Group's ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to fund its property development projects, provide returns for equity-holders and benefits for other stakeholders, by pricing products and services commensurately with the level of risk and by securing access to finance at a reasonable cost.

The Target Group actively and regularly reviews and manages its capital structure to maintain a balance between the higher equity-holder returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position, and makes adjustments to the capital structure in light of changes in economic conditions.

The Target Group monitors its capital structure on the basis of debt-to-assets ratio and adjusted net debt-to-assets ratio which deducted contract liabilities from total liabilities. The Target Group's debt-to-assets ratio and adjusted net debt-to-assets ratio at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019 was as follows:

  1. Dividends

No dividends have been declared or paid by the Target Company and its subsidiaries during the Relevant Periods.

  1. Statutory reserves

According to the PRC Company Law, the Target Company's PRC subsidiaries are required to transfer 10% of their profit after taxation, as determined under the PRC accounting regulations, to statutory surplus reserve until the reserve balance reaches 50% of the registered capital. The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of a dividend to shareholders.

Statutory surplus reserve can be used to reduce previous years' losses, if any, and may be converted into paid-in capital in proportion to the existing equity interest of investors.

23 Financial risk management and fair values

Exposure to credit, liquidity, interest rate and currency risks arises in the normal course of the Target Group's business.

The Target Group's exposure to these risks and the financial risk management policies and practices used by the Target Group to manage these risks are described below.

  1. Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Target Group. The Target Group's credit risk is primarily attributable to other receivables. The Target Group's exposure to credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents is limited because the counterparties are banks and financial institutions for which the Target Group considers to have low credit risk. Thus the carrying amounts of other receivables represent the Target Group's maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposures to these credit risks are monitored on an ongoing basis.

In respect of other receivables due from third parties, the Target Group reviews the exposures and manages them based on the need of operation.

In respect of amounts due from related parties, the Target Group facilitates their capital demand by assessing and closely monitoring their financial conditions and profitability.

- II-51 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

At each reporting date, the Target Group measures the expected credit losses of other receivables in following ways:

If, at the reporting date, the credit risk on other receivable has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Target Group measures the loss allowance for other receivable at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit loss. The Target Group measures the loss allowance for other receivables at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit loss if the credit risk on other receivable has increased significantly since initial recognition.

Financial guarantees

Except for the financial guarantees given by the Target Group as set out in note 25, the Target Group does not provide any other guarantees which would expose the Target Group to credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk in respect of these financial guarantees at the end of the reporting period is disclosed in note 25.

  1. Liquidity risk

The Target Group are responsible for all individual operating subsidiaries' cash management, including the short-term investment of cash surpluses and the raising of loans to cover expected cash demands. The Target Group regularly monitors its liquidity requirements and its compliance with lending covenants, to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash and readily realisable marketable securities and adequate committed lines of funding from major financial institutions to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term.

The following tables show the remaining contractual maturities at the respective end of each reporting period of the Target Group's financial liabilities, which are based on contractual undiscounted cash flows (including interest payments computed using contractual rates or, if floating, based on rates current at the end of each reporting period) and the earliest date the Target Group can be required to pay:

  1. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.

Borrowings issued at variable rates and at fixed rates expose the Target Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk respectively. The Target Group has a policy ensuring that most of its borrowings are effectively on a fixed basis, through the contractual terms of the interest-bearing financial liabilities. As at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019, the Target Group's bank loans and borrowings from financial institutions are all at fixed rates, thus the Target Group considered that the overall interest rate risk resulting from

- II-53 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

change in market interest rate was not significant and no sensitivity analysis on interest rate risk was presented. The interest rate and terms of repayment of the Target Group's interest-bearing borrowings are disclosed in note 18.

  1. Currency risk

The Target Group is not exposed to foreign currency risk since all the financial assets and liabilities of the Target Company and its subsidiaries are denominated in the functional currencies.

  1. Fair value measurement
    1. Fair value of financial assets and liabilities carried at other than fair value

The carrying amounts of the financial instruments carried at cost or amortised cost are not material different from their fair values as at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019.

  1. Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value

The Target Group measured the financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (see note 15) at the end of the reporting period on a recurring basis, categorised into the Level 2 fair value hierarchy as defined in HKFRS 13, Fair value measurement. The level into which a fair value measurement is classified is determined with reference to the observability and significance of the inputs used in the valuation technique as follows:

  • Level 1 valuations: Fair value measured using only Level 1 inputs i.e. unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date
  • Level 2 valuations: Fair value measured using Level 2 inputs i.e. observable inputs which fail to meet Level 1, and not using significant unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs are inputs for which market data are not available
  • Level 3 valuations: Fair value measured using significant unobservable inputs

During the Relevant Periods, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, or transfers into or out of Level 3. The Target Group's policy is to recognise transfers between levels of fair value hierarchy as at the end of the reporting period in which they occur.

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

25 Contingent liabilities

As at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019, the Target Group has issued guarantees to banks to secure the mortgage arrangements of certain property buyers. The outstanding guarantees to the banks amounted to RMB225,900,000, RMB70,619,000 and RMB590,852,000 and RMB491,285,000 as at 31 December 2016, 2017 and 2018 and 31 May 2019, respectively, which will be terminated upon the completion of the transfer procedures with the property buyers in respect of the legal title of the properties.

The directors do not consider that the Target Group will sustain a loss under these guarantees as the bank has the rights to sell the property and recovers the outstanding loan balance from the sale proceeds if the property buyers default their payments. The Target Group has not recognised any deferred income in respect of these guarantees as its fair value is considered to be insignificant by the directors.

26 Material related party transactions

In addition to the related party information disclosed elsewhere, the Target Group entered into the following significant related party transactions during the Relevant Periods.

  1. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS ON THE TARGET GROUP
    Business and Financial Results of the Target Group

The Target Company is a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands with limited liability and is principally engaged in investment holding.

The Target Company holds the Project Companies which are principally engaged in property development and are currently engaged in construction and development of certain residential/commercial projects in Fujian Province of the PRC. Save for the Project Companies comprising Fujian Shengchuang Real Estate Development Co., Ltd.* (福建盛創房地產開發有限公司)("Fujian Shengchuang"), Fuzhou Hongsheng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd.*(福州宏盛房地產開發有限公司)("Fuzhou Hongsheng"), Fujian Tianren Real Estate Development Co., Ltd.* (福建天壬房地產開發有限公司)("Fujian Tianren") and Zhangzhou Deyousheng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd.*(漳州市德 友盛房地產開發有限公司) ("Zhangzhou Deyousheng"), other members of the Target

For the financial years ended 31 December 2016, 31 December 2017 and 31 December 2018 and five months ended 31 May 2019 respectively, the Target Group recorded:

  1. revenue of approximately RMB221.1 million, RMB1,174.7 million and RMB1,178.0 million and RMB39.8 million respectively. Revenue for the years ended 31 December 2016 was contributed by delivery of the property units of Fujian Shengchuang. The increase in revenue for the years ended 31 December 2017 and 31 December 2018 were mainly due to sale of property units of Fujian Shengchuang and Zhangzhou Deyousheng. As most of the delivery of pre-sold units of the Project Companies took place on or before 2018, revenue of the Target Group for the five months ended 31 May 2019 reduced significantly;
  2. gross profit of approximately RMB24.4 million, RMB306.2 million and RMB326.0 million and RMB26.0 million respectively, and gross profit margin of 11.0%, 26.1% and 27.7% and 65.4% respectively. The increase in gross profit margins for the years end 31 December 2017 and 31 December 2018 was driven primarily by the delivery of the property units of Zhangzhou Deyousheng, whose unit land acquisition cost was lower than that of Fujian Shengchuang. The gross profit margin increased substantially during five months ended 31 May 2019 as all properties units were delivered by Zhangzhou Deyousheng;
  3. net valuation gain on investment property of approximately nil, RMB9.6 million and RMB11.5 million and RMB0.4 million respectively, which is contributed by the offices and commercial properties held by Fujian Shengchuang;

- II-59 -

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

  1. other income of approximately RMB1.8 million, other income of approximately RMB0.7 million, other loss of approximately RMB11.9 million and other income of approximately RMB25.6 million respectively, which mainly comprised of interest income, investment income, forfeited deposits from customers and donation. The other loss in 2018 was mainly due to the compensations of approximately RMB15.0 million recorded by Fujian Shengchuang as a result of delayed processing of property rights certificates for the customers. Save for the compensations paid in 2018, there is no other contractual obligation shall be born by Fujian Shengchuang;
  2. selling and marketing expenses of approximately RMB41.4 million, RMB73.1 million and RMB106.1 million and RMB32.9 million respectively, which comprise sales commissions paid to independent third-party sales agents, salary of selling and marketing staff of the Target Group and advertisement and promotion expenses;
  3. administrative expenses of approximately RMB17.8 million, RMB34.9 million and RMB42.6 million and RMB14.0 million respectively, which mainly comprised consultation service fee, utility charges, administrative staff costs, transportation and entertainment expenses, general office expenses, legal and professional expenses, other taxes and depreciation. The increase in administrative expenses for the years ended 31 December 2017 and 31 December 2018 was driven primarily by the increase of administrative staff costs, consultancy fee and other taxes. During the years ended 31 December 2017 and 2018, the Project Companies paid approximately RMB4.5 million and RMB11.7 million respectively for the consultation services provided by Fuzhou Sansheng. The consultation services are for the preliminary stage of the construction and ended in 2018. Thus the administrative expenses decreased for the five months ended 2019;
  4. finance costs of approximately RMB4.0 million, nil and nil and nil respectively after capitalising qualified borrowing costs into inventories. The borrowing costs comprised primarily interest on borrowings and interest accrued on receipts in advance from property pre-sales;
  5. income tax credit of approximately RMB5.3 million, income tax expense of approximately RMB127.4 million and RMB156.3 million and RMB9.3 million respectively, which primarily comprise PRC corporate income tax expense based on the estimated taxable income in the PRC of the Target Group, origination and reversal of temporary difference on deferred tax and the PRC land appreciation tax expense; and
  6. loss after taxation of approximately RMB31.8 million, profit after taxation of approximately RMB81.0 million and profit after taxation of approximately RMB20.5 million and loss after taxation of approximately RMB4.2 million respectively.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

  1. The financial information of the Group as at 30 June 2019 and for the year ended 31 December 2018 are extracted from the published interim report of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2019 and the published annual report of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2018 respectively.
  2. The financial information of the Target Group as at 31 May 2019 and for the year ended 31 December 2018 are extracted from the accountants' report of the Target Group as set out in Appendix II to this circular.

The functional currency and presentation currency of the Target group are RMB. For illustraive purpose, the exchange rates used when preparing the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position of the Enlarged Group is the exchange rate as at 30 June 2019 of RMB1 to HK$1.1137 and the exchange rate used when preparing the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of profit or loss, unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of cash flows of the Enlarged Group is the monthly average exchange rate for the year ended 31 December 2018 of the Group of RMB1 to HK$1.171.

No representation is made that the Renminbi amounts have been, could have been or could be converted to Hong Kong dollars, or vice versa, at those rates or at any other rates.

- III-8 -

APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

  1. As one of the conditions precedent to the Acquisition, a Reorganisation of the Target Group is required prior to the Acquisition. For the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position, the adjustments represent:
    1. distribution dividend of RMB50,000,000 by Xiamen Sansheng Real Estate Co., Ltd. ("Xiamen Sansheng", one of the subsidiaries of the Target Group) to its then equity holder, Fuzhou Sansheng Property Co., Ltd. ("Fuzhou Sansheng");
    2. capital injection of RMB11,210,000 by an independent third party in Fujian Shengchuang Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. ("Fujian Shengchuang", one of the subdiaries of the Target Group);
    3. the transfer of 95% of equity interest in Fujian Shengchuang held by Fuzhou Sansheng to Newco (the "Transfer") for a consideration of RMB59,418,000, which is to be fully settled by offsetting the Inter-Company Loans owing by Fuzhou Sansheng to the Target Group. The Transfer is considered as a non-cash transation and will not affect the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of cash flows.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Reorganisation has been completed. Upon completion of the Reorganisation, Newco and the independent third party held 95% and 5% equity interest in Fujian Shengchuang respectively. Non-controlling interest of RMB3,127,000 was recorded in the Target Group's consolidated statement of financial position, which is determined at 5% of total equity attributable to equity interest holders of Fujian Shengchuang as at 31 May 2019 after taking into account the dividend distribution and capital injection mentioned in (3)(a) and (b) above respectively.

  1. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Consideration of HK$231.0 million for the Acquisition shall be payable to the Vendor by way of issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares, being 22,000,000 new Shares, at the issue price of HK$10.5 per Consideration Share, by the Company to the Vendor on Completion Date. For the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position, the adjustments represented the par value of HK$2,200,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB1,935,000 using the exchange rate of RMB1:HK$1.137) for the 22,000,000 new shares allotted and issued by the Company.
    Since both the Group and the Target Group are ultimately controlled by Mr Lin Rongbin before and after the Acquisition and the control is not transitory, the Acquisition is treated as a combination of businesses under common control by applying the principles and procedures stipulated in the Hong Kong Accounting Guideline 5, "Merger Accounting for Common Control Combinations". The net assets of the Target Group are combined using their existing book values from the perspective of Mr. Lin Rongbin.
  2. For the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position, the adjustments represent the offset of the Target Group's receivables from Fuzhou Sansheng of RMB671,711,000 against the loans drawn by the Group from Fuzhou Sansheng.
    Since the offset of the Target Group's receivables from Fuzhou Sansheng against the loans drawn by the Group is considered as a non-cash transaction, there is no related adjustment for the the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of cash flows.
  3. The adjustments represent the profit and other comprehensive income attributable to non-controlling interests which is calculated as 5% of the combined profit and other comprehensive income of the Target Group for the year ended 31 December 2018. This adjustment is expected to have a continuing effect on the Enlarged Group's consolidated statement of profit or loss and consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
  4. The adjustment represents the estimated transaction costs (including fees to legal advisers, financial adviser, reporting accountants, valuer and other expenses) of RMB2,515,000 payable by the Enlarged Group in connection with the Re-organisation and Acquisition. This adjustment is not expected to

- III-9 -

APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

have a continuing effect on the Enlarged Group's consolidated statement of profit or loss, consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and consolidated statement of cash flows.

  1. The Group has adopted Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards 16, Lease ("HKFRS 16") from 1 January 2019 while the Target Group had early adopted HKFRS 16 on 1 January 2016. No adjustment in respect of the Target Group's early adoption of HKFRS 16 has been made for the purpose of the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of profit or loss, unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of cash flowsas the directors are of the opinion that such adjustment is insignificant.
  2. Other than the adjustments in relation to the Acquisition set out in the notes above, no other adjustment have been made to the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information to reflect any trading results or other transactions of the Enlarged Group subsequent to 30 June 2019 for the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position and 31 December 2018 for the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of profit or loss, unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and unaudited consolidated statement of cash flows.

  1. INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANTS' ASSURANCE REPORT ON THE COMPILATION OF PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following is the text of a report received from the reporting accountants, KPMG, Certified Public Accountants, Hong Kong, in respect of the Group's pro forma financial information for the purpose in this circular.

TO THE DIRECTORS OF SANSHENG HOLDINGS (GROUP) CO.LTD.

We have completed our assurance engagement to report on the compilation of pro forma financial information of Sansheng Holdings (Group) Co.Ltd. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group") by the directors of the Company (the "Directors") for illustrative purposes only. The pro forma financial information consists of the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2019 and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of profit or loss, pro forma consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and pro forma consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended 31 December 2018, and related notes as set out in Part A of Appendix III to the circular dated 25 November 2019 (the "Circular") issued by the Company. The applicable criteria on the basis of which the Directors have compiled the pro forma financial information are described in Part A of Appendix III to the Circular.

The pro forma financial information has been compiled by the Directors to illustrate the impact of the proposed acquisition of Time Fortune Investments Limited (the "Target Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Target Group") (the "Proposed Acquisition") on the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2019 and the Group's financial performance and cash flows for the year ended 31 December 2018 as if the Proposed Acquisition had taken place at 30 June 2019 and 1 January 2018, respectively. As part of this process, information about the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2019 has been extracted by the Directors from the interim report of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2019, on which a review report has been published. Information about the Group's financial performance and cash flows for the year ended 31 December 2018 has been extracted by the Directors from the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2018, on which an audit report has been published.

Directors' Responsibilities for the Pro Forma Financial Information

The Directors are responsible for compiling the pro forma financial information in accordance with paragraph 4.29 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Listing Rules") and with reference to Accounting Guideline 7 "Preparation of Pro Forma Financial Information for Inclusion in Investment Circulars" ("AG 7") issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA").

- III-11 -

APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

Our Independence and Quality Control

We have complied with the independence and other ethical requirements of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the HKICPA, which is founded on fundamental principles of integrity, objectivity, professional competence and due care, confidentiality and professional behavior.

The firm applies Hong Kong Standard on Quality Control 1 "Quality Control for Firms That Perform Audits and Reviews of Financial Statements, and Other Assurance and Related Services Engagements" issued by the HKICPA and accordingly maintains a comprehensive system of quality control including documented policies and procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Reporting Accountants' Responsibilities

Our responsibility is to express an opinion, as required by paragraph 4.29(7) of the Listing Rules, on the pro forma financial information and to report our opinion to you. We do not accept any responsibility for any reports previously given by us on any financial information used in the compilation of the pro forma financial information beyond that owed to those to whom those reports were addressed by us at the dates of their issue.

We conducted our engagement in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Assurance Engagements ("HKSAE") 3420 "Assurance Engagements to Report on the Compilation of Pro Forma Financial Information Included in a Prospectus" issued by the HKICPA. This standard requires that the reporting accountants plan and perform procedures to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Directors have compiled the pro forma financial information in accordance with paragraph 4.29 of the Listing Rules, and with reference to AG 7 issued by the HKICPA.

For purpose of this engagement, we are not responsible for updating or reissuing any reports or opinions on any historical financial information used in compiling the pro forma financial information, nor have we, in the course of this engagement, performed an audit or review of the financial information used in compiling the pro forma financial information.

The purpose of pro forma financial information included in an investment circular is solely to illustrate the impact of a significant event or transaction on the unadjusted financial information of the Group as if the event had occurred or the transaction had been undertaken at an earlier date selected for purposes of the illustration. Accordingly, we do not provide any assurance that the actual outcome of the events or transactions at 30 June 2019 or 1 January 2018 would have been as presented.

A reasonable assurance engagement to report on whether the pro forma financial information has been properly compiled on the basis of the applicable criteria involves performing procedures to assess whether the applicable criteria used by the Directors in the

- III-12 -

APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

compilation of the pro forma financial information provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects directly attributable to the event or transaction, and to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence about whether:

  • the related pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those criteria; and
  • the pro forma financial information reflects the proper application of those adjustments to the unadjusted financial information.

The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountants' judgement, having regard to the reporting accountants' understanding of the nature of the Group, the event or transaction in respect of which the pro forma financial information has been compiled, and other relevant engagement circumstances.

The engagement also involves evaluating the overall presentation of the pro forma financial information.

We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion:

  1. the pro forma financial information has been properly compiled on the basis stated;
  2. such basis is consistent with the accounting policies of the Group, and
  3. the adjustments are appropriate for the purposes of the pro forma financial information as disclosed pursuant to paragraph 4.29(1) of the Listing Rules.

25 November 2019

Dear Sirs,

Jones Lang LaSalle Corporate Appraisal and Advisory Limited ("JLL" or "we") is instructed by Sansheng Holdings (Group) Co. Ltd. (the "Company") to provide valuation service on the properties in which Fujian Shengchuang Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. ("Fujian Shengchuang"), Fujian Tianren Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. ("Fujian Tianren"), Fuzhou Hongsheng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. ("Fuzhou Hongsheng") and Zhangzhou Deyousheng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. ("Zhangzhou Deyousheng") (hereinafter together referred to as the "Target Companies") have interests in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC") for disclosure purpose.

We confirm that we have carried out inspections, made relevant enquiries and searches and obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing you with our opinion on the market values of the property interests as at 31 August 2019 (the "valuation date").

Our valuation is carried out on a market value basis. Market value is defined as "the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date 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" in accordance with the HKIS Valuation Standards.

- IV-1 -

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE PROJECT COMPANIES

We have valued the property interests in Group I which are held for sale by the Target Companies by the comparison approach assuming sale of the property interests in their existing states with the benefit of immediate vacant possession and by making reference to comparable sales transactions as available in the market. This approach rests on the wide acceptance of the market transactions as the best indicator and pre-supposes that evidence of relevant transactions in the market place can be extrapolated to similar properties, subject to allowances for variable factors.

For the purpose of our valuation, real estate developments for sale are those the Construction Work Completion and Inspection Certificates/Tables or Building Ownership Certificates/Real Estate Title Certificates thereof are issued by the relevant local authorities or are in the process of application, this also includes those property interests which have been contracted to be sold, but the formal assignment procedures of which have not yet been completed.

In valuing the property interests in Group II which are held under development by the Target Companies, we have assumed that they will be developed and completed in accordance with the latest development proposals provided to us by the Target Companies. In arriving at our opinion of values, we have adopted the comparison approach by making reference to comparable sales evidence as available in the relevant market and have also taken into account the accrued construction cost and professional fees relevant to the stage of construction as at the valuation date and the remainder of the cost and fees expected to be incurred for completing the development. We have relied on the accrued construction cost and professional fees information provided by the Target Companies according to the different stages of construction of the properties as at the valuation date, and we did not find any material inconsistency from those of other similar developments.

For the purpose of our valuation, real estate developments under development are those for which the Construction Works Commencement Permit(s) has(have) been issued while the Construction Works Completion and Inspection Certificate(s)/Table(s) of the building(s) have not been issued.

For the property interests in Group III which are held for investment by the Target Companies, we have adopted the income approach in our valuation by taking into account the net rental income of the property derived from the existing leases and/or achievable in the existing market with due allowance for the reversionary income potential of the leases, which has been then capitalized to determine the market value at an appropriate capitalization rate. Where appropriate, reference has also been made to comparable sale transactions as available in the relevant market.

Our valuation has been made on the assumption that the seller sells the property interests in the market without the benefit of a deferred term contract, leaseback, joint venture, management agreement or any similar arrangement, which could serve to affect the values of the property interests.

- IV-2 -

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE PROJECT COMPANIES

No allowance has been made in our report for any charge, mortgage or amount owing on any of the property interests valued nor for any expense 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.

In valuing the property interests, we have complied with all requirements contained in Chapter 5 and Practice Note 12 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities issued by the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited; the RICS Valuation - Global Standards 2017 published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors; the HKIS Valuation Standards published by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors, and the International Valuation Standards published by the International Valuation Standards Council.

We have relied to a very considerable extent on the information given by the Company and the Target Companies and have accepted advice given to us on such matters as tenure, planning approvals, statutory notices, easements, particulars of occupancy and all other relevant matters.

We have been shown copies of title documents including State-owned Land Use Rights Certificates, Real Estate Title Certificates and other official plans relating to the property interests and have made relevant enquiries. Where possible, we have examined the original documents to verify the existing title to the property interests in the PRC and any material encumbrance that might be attached to the property interests or any tenancy amendment. We have summarized the major certificates/approvals of the properties in the notes of each valuation certificate. In these summaries, we state "no" if the Target Companies has not obtained such certificates/approvals which are required for the current construction stages, and we state "portion" if the Target Companies has not yet obtained some of such certificates/approvals of the properties as these properties consist of different groups mentioned above/construction stages (different certificates/approvals are required for different groups/construction stages). We have relied considerably on the legal opinion given by the Company's PRC legal advisors - Commerce & Finance Law Offices, concerning the validity of the property interests in the PRC.

We have had no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information provided to us by the Company and the Target Companies. We have also sought confirmation from the Company and the Target Companies that no material factors have been omitted from the information supplied. We consider that we have been provided with sufficient information to arrive an informed view, and we have no reason to suspect that any material information has been withheld.

We have not carried out detailed measurements to verify the correctness of the areas in respect of the properties but have assumed that the areas shown on the title documents and official site plans handed to us are correct. All documents and contracts have been used as reference only and all dimensions, measurements and areas are approximations. No on-site measurement has been taken.

- IV-3 -

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE PROJECT COMPANIES

We have inspected the exterior and, where possible, the interior of the properties. However, we have not carried out investigation to determine the suitability of the ground conditions and services for any development thereon. Our valuation has been prepared on the assumption that these aspects are satisfactory and that no unexpected cost and delay will be incurred during construction. Moreover, no structural survey has been made, but in the course of our inspection, we did not note any serious defect. We are not, however, able to report whether the properties are free of rot, infestation or any other structural defect. No tests were carried out on any of the services.

Inspection of the properties was carried out in October 2019 by Mr. Steven Zeng who graduates with master degree having subjects in urban planning and real estate related fields and has 2 years' experience in the property valuation in the PRC, and Mr. Tony Zhai who graduates with master degree having subjects in finance and real estate related fields and has 4 years' experience in the property valuation in the PRC.

Unless otherwise stated, all monetary figures stated in this report are in Renminbi (RMB).

Our summary of values and valuation certificates are attached below for your attention.

Yours faithfully,

For and on behalf of

Jones Lang LaSalle Corporate Appraisal and Advisory Limited
