DIRECTORS' REPORT

Trading in the shares of Mingyuan Medicare Development Company Limited (the "Company") has been suspended from trading on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange") since 1 April 2015 as the Company failed to publish its audited financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2014 and onwards.

After the special general meeting held on 10 September 2014, the Company failed to hold an annual general meeting ("AGM") within the time limits prescribed by the Bermuda Companies Act 1981 ("BCA 1981") and by Bye-law 67 of the Company's New Bye-laws. The Chief Justice of Bermuda granted the relief to permit Greater Achieve Limited, a substantial shareholder of the Company, to convene the AGM itself. The AGM convened by Greater Achieve Limited was held on 20 May 2016. At that meeting, each of the directors was either retired or removed and the entire board of the Company was replaced, and Crowe Horwath (HK) CPA Limited was appointed as auditor of the Company in place of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu ("Deloitte"). The board of directors of the Company since 20 May 2016 is defined as the "Board" in this report.

The new members of the board of directors of the Company do not have access to a substantial part of the accounting books and records held by the Company prior to 20 May 2016. Prior to the appointments of the new directors, the Company's hard drives had been removed as a result of which its computer records were no longer accessible, and its banking records had been removed. Substantial part of the accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries, in particular 上海數康生物科 技有限公司 Shanghai HealthDigit Company Limited ("Shanghai H e a l t h D i g i t " ) a n d 上海銘源數康生物芯片有限公司 S H M Y HealthDigit Biochip Company Limited ("SHMY Biochip") is no longer accessible.

The board of directors of the Company herein presents its report together with the audited financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group") for the year ended 31 December 2015 (the "Year") based on the books and records made available to them. Members of the Board make no representation as to the completeness of the information contained in this report.

FINANCIAL RESULTS AND DIVIDENDS

For the Year, the Group's turnover was approximately HK$59.7 million (2014: HK$45.2 million), representing an increase of approximately 31.9% from the last financial year. The consolidated loss attributable to owners of the Company amounted to approximately HK$7.4 million (2014: HK$868.2 million) for the year. Loss per share was approximately HK0.17 cents as compared with loss per share of approximately HK19.80 cents for that of 2014. There will be no payment of dividend for the Year (2014: Nil).

BUSINESS REVIEW

As at the date of this report, the Board is still in the process of getting back the control over the Group's two key subsidiaries, Shanghai HealthDigit and SHMY Biochip, and cannot access to their books and records. As a result, the Group cannot consolidate the results of these two subsidiaries and their related investments for the year ended 31 December 2015 and 2014 into the Group ("Derecognition").

After the Derecognition of the above subsidiaries, the Group only maintained Health Care Division which sells HPV DNA testing kits to female patients at hospital nationwide. The division recorded total sales of HK$59.7 million (2014: HK$45.2 million).

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Up to 31 December 2013, the Group operated five business segments, namely the protein chips division ("PCD"), health care division ("HCD"), medical centres management ("MCM"), individualized target therapy division ("ITTD"), and bio-drugs division ("BDD").

However, as disclosed in note 2 and note 34 to the consolidated financial statements, the Board of the Company has been unable to gain access to the books and records of Shanghai Subsidiaries and no financial information of the Shanghai Subsidiaries were made available, the financial performance and the financial position of Shanghai Subsidiaries were not consolidated into group consolidated financial statements in 2014 and 2015.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

The Company is an investment holding company. Details of the principal activities of the subsidiaries of the Company as at 31 December 2015 are set out in note 32 to the financial statements.

Annual Report 2015

DIRECTORS' REPORT

The Group's operations and transactions are principally located in the PRC. Other than bank balances and cash denominated in Hong Kong dollars or Renminbi, other assets and liabilities are mainly denominated in Renminbi. The Directors do not consider that there will be material fluctuations in the exchange rate of Renminbi against Hong Kong dollars, the reporting currency of the Group, in the foreseeable future, even though the steadily decrease in the exchange rate of Renminbi against Hong Kong dollars would result in a translation loss for the Group when the net assets of the Group's operating subsidiaries in the PRC are denominated in Renminbi. Although the Group currently does not have a foreign exchange currency hedging policy, it does and will continue to monitor the foreign exchange exposure closely, and will consider hedging if there is significant foreign currency exposure.

Gearing ratio

Gearing ratio of 2015 was 0% (2014: 0%) representing bank borrowings divided by the owners' total equity.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty, capital risk management and financial risk management are disclosed in notes 5 and 7 to the consolidated financial statements respectively. Save as disclosed herein, the Board cannot ascertain if there were any other material non-compliance with the relevant laws and regulations that have a significant impact on the Group's other businesses during the Year. In addition, the Board does not have sufficient information to report the Group's corporate governance for the Year. In order to ensure the business is conducted with fit and proper persons and entities, the Board values business/ professional ethics as the key criterion in hiring employees and service providers. In future, the Company will also value social responsibilities in providing health care services and in dealing with its employees and vendors.

KEY TRANSACTIONS CONDUCTED BY THE GROUP DURING THE YEAR

Foreign Exchange Agreement

On 23 December 2013, SHMY Biochip entered into an agreement in writing (the "Foreign Exchange Agreement") by which it agreed to transfer RMB396 million (the "Payment") to Beijing Nong Long Investment Management Company Limited 北京農龍投資管理有限公司 ("BJ Nong Long"), and BJ Nong Long agreed in return to convert that sum into Hong Kong Dollars and to pay HK$507 million to SHMY Biochip. If for any reason BJ Nong Long was unable to effect the conversion on or before 22 March 2014, then the RMB396 million had to be

returned to SHMY Biochip within 3 banking days. Based on the published annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2013, the Group deposited RMB396 million pursuant to the treasury arrangement but BJ Nong Long failed to deliver the Hong Kong currency in Hong Kong and no agreement had been reached as to the date of repayment of such sum. As such, the entire amount had been impaired during 2013. The Company later in an announcement dated 9 June 2014, "RECOVERY OF OTHER RECEIVABLE PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN OFF", stated that the full amount of RMB396 million was recovered on 9 June 2014.

Due to the limited books and records available and accessible by the Board, whether or not the Payment had been fully recovered as announced by the former directors on 9 June 2014 cannot be ascertained by the Board.

The Payment had raised the concern of the Listing Department of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("HKEx") and a hearing was conducted by the Listing Committee of HKEx into the conduct of the Company and its directors in respect of this transaction. The Listing Committee found that the Payment constituted a financial assistance by the Company to BJ Nong Long and it was a non-exempt transaction subject to requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and it constituted a major transaction subject to the announcement requirement under Rule 13.34 and shareholder approval requirement under Rule 14.40 of the Listing Rules. The Payment was made without shareholders' approval and the Listing Committee concluded that the Company breached Rules 14.34 and 14.40 of the Listing Rules. The Company and six former directors of the Company were therefore publicly censured by the Stock Exchange on 28 September 2016. Details of the listing decision issued by the Stock Exchange can be downloaded from the Stock Exchange's website (http://www.hkexnews.hk/ listedco/listconews/SEHK/2016/0928/LTN20160928385.PDF")

Missing Fund of RMB420 million

In 2015, during the course of audit procedures for preparing the audited results of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2014, Deloitte, the then auditors of the Company, attempted to but was unable to verify the bank balance of RMB420 million (the "Bank Balance") as of 31 December 2014 supposedly held in SHMY Biochip's name at the Agricultural Bank of China (the "Unresolved Matter"). Deloitte advised the former Board to establish an independent board committee ("IBC") to conduct independent forensic investigation for the Unresolved Matter but the former management of the Company failed to do so. Therefore, in the absence of any independent forensic investigation being performed, Deloitte tendered their resignation as auditors of the Company with effect from 21 December 2015.

6 Mingyuan Medicare Development Company Limited

DIRECTORS' REPORT

Following the appointment of new directors at the AGM held on 20 May 2016 to replace the former management, IBC has been formed and Control Risks Pacific Limited ("Control Risk"), an independent forensic accountant, has been engaged since 3 June 2016 to conduct a forensic investigation on the Unresolved Matter. Control Risk's initial findings on the missing Bank Balance of RMB420 million were announced by the Company on 29 August 2016 (http://www.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/ SEHK/2016/0829/LTN20160829581.pdf). As at the date of this report, the question of the Unresolved Matter remains outstanding as the investigation cannot move on without gaining access to the banking and accounting records of SHMY Biochip.

However, Control Risk had concluded that the Bank Balance, allegedly represented by a bank deposit certificate that was provided to Deloitte by the former management was a fake, hence the holding of the Bank Balance never existed.

SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT

Based on the published information, available books and records to the Board, the Group did not have any significant investment during the Year.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

Resumption of Trading

Trading in the shares of the Company (the "Shares") has been suspended since 1 April 2015 as disclosed hereinabove this report. In the letter issued by the Stock Exchange to the Company dated 14 July 2015, in which the Stock Exchange has imposed the following resumption conditions ("Resumption Conditions"):

  1. conduct a forensic investigation on the Unresolved Matter, disclose the findings of the investigation, assess the impact on the Company's financial and operational positions, and take appropriate remedial actions;
  2. publish all outstanding financial results under the Listing Rules and address any audit qualifications;
  3. demonstrate that the Company has put in place adequate financial reporting procedures and internal control systems to meet its Listing Rules obligations; and
  4. inform the market of all material information for the shareholders and the investors to appraise the Company and SHMY Biochip's position.

On 11 April 2019, the Stock Exchange issued a letter to the Company informing that the Stock Exchange has considered it appropriate to require the Company, as an additional resumption guidance, to demonstrate a sufficient level of operations or assets under Rule 13.24 of the Listing Rules to warrant the continued listing of the Company's shares.

The Company must also comply with the Listing Rules and all applicable laws and regulations in Hong Kong and its place of incorporation before resumption. The Stock Exchange may modify any of the above Resumption Conditions and/or impose further conditions if the situation changes.

On 23 October 2017, the Securities and Futures Commission ("SFC") has directed the HKEx to suspend all dealing in the shares of the Company from 9: 00 a.m. 23 October 2017 pursuant to Section 8(1) of the Securities and Futures (Stock Market Listing) Rules ("SMLR"). SFC has raised concerns about the Company's 2013 Annual Results/Annual Report and 2014 Interim Results/Interim Report and certain bank statements and bank transfer documents provided by the then management of the Company that had contained materially false, incomplete or misleading information.

The Company will seek legal advice and contemplating to make representations under Section 9(1) in response to SFC's directions.

Shareholders may refer to the announcements made by the Company on 10 August 2018, 15 November 2018, 11 February 2019 and 2 May 2019 respectively on the updates on trading suspension. A summary of the progress is as follows: -

1. In June 2016, the Company has appointed Control Risks as an independent forensic accountant to conduct forensic investigation on the bank balance of a subsidiary as of 31 December 2014 amounting to approximately RMB 420 million which the Company's former auditors was unable to verify (the "Unresolved Matter"). A preliminary report was published by Control Risks in August 2016 and it was concluded that the said bank balance of RMB 420 million was not legitimate (the "Control Risks Report"). Findings of the Control Risks Report have been disclosed by the Company in its announcement dated 29 August 2016. The Company is of the view that the relevant resumption condition has been fulfilled.

Annual Report 2015

DIRECTORS' REPORT

  1. The Company has engaged FTI Consulting to conduct a review on the Company's financial reporting procedures and internal control systems and an internal control review report was issued by FTI Consulting in July 2018. The major findings of the internal control report have been set out by the Company in its announcement dated 15 November 2018 and the relevant measures taken by the Company in response to the internal control deficiencies have been disclosed in its announcement dated 11 February 2019. The Company is of the view that the relevant resumption condition has been fulfilled.
  2. The Company has been informing the market of all material information from time to time by way of announcements.

Upon the publication of all outstanding financial results of the Group, the Board will demonstrate to the Stock Exchange that all the resumption conditions have been fulfilled and to the SFC that its concerns have been properly addressed.

Legal Action against Deloitte

  1. On 19 December 2016, the Company and its other 2 indirectly wholly owned subsidiaries (the "Plaintiffs") commenced an action (HCA3339 of 2016) against the Company's predecessor auditors, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu ("DTT"), claiming against DTT for, inter alia, breach of its duties of reasonable skill and care owed to the Plaintiffs arising out of DTT's failure to detect, suspect or report fraudulent activity and/or other irregularities in the management of the Plaintiffs and/or other subsidiaries of the Company.
  1. On 29 September 2017, an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary commenced an action (HCA 2282 of 2017) against the Company's predecessor auditors, DTT, claiming against DTT for, inter alia, breach of its duties of reasonable skill and care owed to the Plaintiff arising out of DTT's failure to detect, suspect or report fraudulent activity and/or other irregularities in the management of the Plaintiff and its subsidiaries.
  2. On 6 July 2018, Master J. Wong of the High Court ordered, inter alia, that HCA 3339 of 2016 and HCA 2282 of 2017 be consolidated and thereafter be carried on as one action (the "Consolidated Action") with HCA3339 of 2016 being the lead action.

As at the date of this report, the Consolidated Action has not been determined.

Financial Support

The Company has also obtained facilities totaling HK$39 million from an independent third party on 27 September 2016 and 23 August 2018, of HK$5 million and of HK$40 million from the Chairman and Lam & Co. on 12 September 2016 and 18 May 2018 respectively. With their strong and continuous financial support, it is expected that the Group will be able to maintain its operation and its existing businesses. In addition, the Company is in the course of appraising potential business proposals with a view to expanding the Group's healthcare business. Hence, the current management believes that the Group shall have sufficient operations to maintain its listing status.

Control over SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit

The current management of the Company has been making vigorous attempt to take control of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit. Two civil actions against Yao Yuan and Iu Chung, being the current respective legal representatives of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit, for the return of the company seals and business licenses of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit in early November 2016. Shareholders may refer to the Company's announcement dated 1 December 2016, 10 October 2017, 20 October 2017, 31 October 2017 and 29 January 2018 for details of the two civil actions. On 28 February 2018, Chairman Mr. Lam Ping Cheung, on behalf of the Company, wrote to the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the "Liaison Office") to seek the Liaison Office's assistance in re-gaining control of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit. From March 2018 to October 2018, officers of Shanghai Administration for Industry & Commerce ("SHAIC") had several meetings with the Company's PRC lawyer concerning the registration of change of legal representative, the reported loss of the business licenses and company seals and the re-issuance of the same. The PRC lawyer had fulfilled the relevant requirements as informed by an official of the Registration Division of Foreign Invested Enterprises of SHAIC. Prior to the re-issuance of the business licenses and company seals, some staff members of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit had informed SHAIC that the business licenses and company seals were in their possession. As such, SHAIC was unable to treat the business licenses and company seals as loss properties and to re-issue the same to the new management. Having considered further advice from the PRC lawyer, the Company decided to apply for retrial of the civil claims against Mr. Yao Yuan and Mr. Iu Chung for the recovery of the business licenses and company seals.

DIRECTORS' VIEW ON AUDITORS' BASIS FOR DISCLAIMER OF OPINION

In relation to the missing fund of RMB420 million

The findings of the Forensic Investigation Report are well acknowledged by the Board. The Board will endeavor to take all necessary actions to recover the said missing fund of RMB420 million if and after the Company has regained access to and control of the Shanghai Subsidiaries.

1. Derecognition of loss arising from Shanghai Subsidiaries

The Board has been making vigorous attempts to take control over the two major subsidiaries, Shanghai HealthDigit and SHMY Biochip, and their subsidiaries (the "Shanghai Subsidiaries") and so far is not able to do so. The following steps have been taken:

  1. On 12 August 2016, the legal representatives and the old board of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit were removed by way of shareholder's resolutions.
  2. On 9 September 2016, the senior management and the director of the new board of HD Global, being the holding company of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit, in the company of a lawyer in Shanghai, a local lawyer from the Feng Xian district (奉賢區) and security guards, entered into the premises of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit at 699 Hui Feng Bei Lu, Fengxian Qu, Shanghai (上海市奉賢區奉 賢現代農業園區匯豐北路699 ) . The group

later met with Mr. Zhou Li Qun (周立群), the former executive director of the Company and then current managing director of the two companies. Mr. Zhou refused to surrender the seals and the original licence certificates of the two companies. Mr. Zhou further informed the group that he would only act on the instructions by Mr. Yao Yuan (the former chairman of the Company).

  1. Advertisement on two newspapers in Shanghai was placed on 19 September 2016 in order to report to the public about the refusal by the old management of the two companies to surrender the three licenses and company seals.
  2. Lawyer in Shanghai for the Company informally approached the Shanghai Administration of Industry and Commerce ("SHAIC") with a view to changing the official records of the new legal representatives and board members of the two companies but was refused. SHAIC advised that it would require a court's order to do so.
  3. Respectively on 3 November 2016 and 8 November 2016, the lawyer in Shanghai acted on instructions by the Company issued two civil complaints against Mr. Yao Yuan and Mr. Iu Chung, being the legal representatives of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit respectively seeking the PRC court's order for the return of the seals and the original licence certificates. As the Board was unable to gain control of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit, the Company had no other alternatives but to resort to commencing civil actions for the purpose of regaining access and control of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit. Upon the issuance of the two civil complaints against Mr. Yao Yuan and Mr. Iu Chung, the Board considered that the Group lost access and control over SHMY Biochip since 3 November 2016 and over Shanghai HealthDigit since 8 November 2016 respectively.
  1. The judgment made in the civil complaint by SHMY Biochip was handed down on 28 September 2017 ("the 28/9/17 Judgment") which was against the Company. The Company then made an appeal against the 28/9/17 Judgment but was unsuccessful. The appeal court upheld the 28/9/17 Judgment.
  2. In relation to the civil complaint made by Shanghai HealthDigit, Mr. Iu was ordered to surrender the company seals of Shanghai HealthDigit and its business licenses by a judgment handed down on 20 October 2017 ("the 20/10/17 Judgment"). Mr. Iu made an appeal on 2 April 2018 against the 20/10/17 Judgment. On 30 August 2018, the appeal court revoked the 20/10/17 Judgment on the basis that there was no evidence that the relevant instruments were in Mr. Iu's possession ("the 30/8/18 Judgment").
  3. After the Company had considered the legal opinion of its PRC lawyer, it decided not to appeal against the judgments, namely the 28/9/17 Judgment and the 30/8/18 Judgment, in respect of the two civil complaints delivered by the appeal courts.
  4. On 28 February 2018, Chairman Mr. Lam Ping Cheung, on behalf of the Company, wrote to the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the "Liaison Office") to seek the Liaison Office's assistance in re- gaining control of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit.
  5. From March 2018 to October 2018, officers of SHAIC had several meetings with the Company's PRC lawyer concerning the registration of change of legal representative, the reported loss of the business licenses and company seals and the re-issuance of the same. The PRC lawyer had fulfilled the relevant requirements as informed by an officer of

  1. Other payables
    It was noted that there were other payables in an amount of HK$3,830,000 due to a company called "香 港港龍科技有限公司" recorded in the books of Genetel Shenzhen. The new management noted that the staff members concerned had left and no information was available to show why Genetel Shenzhen owed the said amount to such company. After conducting the company searches in Hong Kong and the PRC, there was no record in relation to such company. The Board will seek an advice from the PRC lawyer in relation to such amount, if necessary.
  2. Receipts in advance
    The Board acknowledged that the basis of the auditors' disclaimer opinion under "Receipts in advance" is inter- related to the discussions made in paragraph 3b above and will use best endeavor to seek for a feasible solution under the current business model of Genetel Shenzhen.
  3. Income tax, income tax payable and deferred tax liabilities
    The Board noted the lack of supporting documents for the auditors to ascertain the completeness and accuracy of the income tax credit, income tax payable and deferred tax liabilities.
    In relation to the lack of information regarding the Shanghai Subsidiaries, the Board repeated its view under paragraph 1 above.
  4. Technical service fee
  1. Payments made to an ex-director and Mr. Iu Chung
    The Board had no information to ascertain the purpose, substance and nature of the payments made to Mr. Yao Yuan, an ex-director and Mr. Iu Chung, and had therefore tried to make enquiry with Mr. Iu Chung. Up to the date of this report, the Company is unable to obtain any response from Mr. Iu Chung. The Board will keep shareholders informed on the progress from time to time.
  2. Write back of an amount due to an ex-director
    As the legal proceedings commenced by Mr Chien in HCA1837/2014 was dismissed with no order as to costs on 27 October 2016, the Board considered that Mr Chien had no merit nor any justification to claim the Company at the outset. Therefore, the Company did not owe Mr Chien the alleged amount back in 2014 and considered the write back of the alleged amount appropriate.
  3. Directors' and chief executive's and employees' emoluments and amounts due to ex-directors
    The Board noted the lack of information due to missing records in relation to the ex-directors' and ex- employees' emoluments as well as the amounts due to ex-directors. All those ex-directors and ex-employees had left the Company. The Company will endeavor to maintain proper records in relation to the directors' and employees' remuneration.
  4. Litigations and contingent liabilities

The Board acknowledged that the basis of the auditors' disclaimer opinion under "Receipts in advance" is interrelated to the discussions made in paragraph 3b above and will use best endeavor to seek for a feasible solution under the current business model of Genetel Shenzhen.

The Board noted the lack of information for the auditor to ascertain the completeness and accuracy of the disclosure regarding the litigations and contingent liabilities of the Group.

The Board will use best endeavor to obtain relevant information on all outstanding litigations and keep the shareholders informed in due course.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF

MINGYUAN MEDICARE DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LIMITED

(Incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability)

We were engaged to audit the consolidated financial statements of Mingyuan Medicare Development Company Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (together the "Group") set out on pages 27 to 95, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2015, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Directors' responsibility for the consolidated financial statements

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRSs") issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. This report is made solely to you, as a body, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

Except for the inability to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence as explained below, we conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. Because of the matters described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion paragraphs, however, we were not able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion.

Basis for disclaimer of opinion

As disclosed in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, the predecessor auditor (the "Predecessor Auditor") of the Company reported to the then board of directors and audit committee their findings during a visit to a PRC bank to confirm a bank account with a balance of RMB420,245,000 (equivalent to HK$525,044,000) (the "Bank Account") as at 31 December 2014. The Predecessor Auditor was told by the bank staff that the Bank Account purportedly held by the Company's subsidiary namely SHMY HealthDigit Biochip Company Limited ("SHMY Biochip") belonged to an individual. The findings call into question the validity of the Bank Account and the underlying transactions.

Annual Report 2015

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

Basis for disclaimer of opinion (Continued)

An independent board committee (the "IBC") comprising two of the then independent non-executive directors of the Company was established to conduct an investigation into the matter. At the annual general meeting held on 20 May 2016, the 7 former directors were replaced by a new board of directors From then on, under the board of directors of the Company (the "Board"), a new IBC was formed which then engaged an independent professional firm to conduct an independent forensic investigation. According to the findings of the investigation, the Board understood that SHMY Biochip entered into an agreement with a PRC company in Beijing (the "Beijing Company") on 23 December 2013 for the exchange of foreign currency whereby SHMY Biochip transferred RMB396 million (equivalent to HK$507,197,000) to the Beijing Company in return for the Beijing Company agreeing to exchange the sum into Hong Kong dollars within 3 months from the day of the agreement in Hong Kong. The Beijing Company failed to deliver the Hong Kong currency in Hong Kong but purportedly the whole amount of RMB396 million was recovered by SHMY Biochip in May and June in 2014. Subsequently, a sum of RMB420 million was withdrawn from a bank account but the details of the transfer were unknown. The investigation concluded that SHMY Biochip did not hold the Bank Account. Up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, this matter remained outstanding as the Company was unable to gain access to the accounting books and records of SHMY Biochip and, therefore, the independent forensic investigation could not be continued.

In addition, the Board noted that the Company's hard drives in the computers in its Hong Kong office had been removed and its banking documents taken away as a result of which their computer records including details of all bank transactions were no longer accessible. A substantial part of the accounting and computer records of the Company and its subsidiaries is no longer accessible. The Company reported the matter to the Hong Kong Police. The Board further identified questionable transactions in the previous years as disclosed in note 2(f) to the consolidated financial statements.

Up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, except for Genetel Pharmaceuticals (Shenzhen) Company Limited, the Board was unable to take over the control of the Company's other subsidiaries in the PRC.

These events, together with other matters as set out in the following paragraphs, form the basis of our disclaimer of opinion:

1. Derecognition of and loss arising from Shanghai Subsidiaries

As disclosed in note 2(e) to the consolidated financial statements, pursuant to the resolution passed at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 20 May 2016, all the then directors (the "ex-directors") were either removed or retired from the board of the Company and the Company appointed seven new directors. From then on, the Board began to take over the control of the Company and its subsidiaries from the ex-directors. However, save for the equity interest owned by the Group and the removal of former directors and legal representatives and the appointment of new directors and legal representatives by way of shareholders' resolutions, the Board was unable to take control over the management and operations of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit Co., Limited and their subsidiaries (the "Shanghai Subsidiaries") notwithstanding the Board took actions against Mr. Yao Yuan and Mr. Iu Chung for the return of the company seals and business licenses of the Shanghai Subsidiaries. The Board was also unable to gain access to the premises, assets and books and records of the Shanghai Subsidiaries and to direct their relevant activities. Under these circumstances, the Board considered that the control over the Shanghai Subsidiaries was lost and therefore the financial performance and financial position of the Shanghai Subsidiaries were not consolidated into these consolidated financial statements. The Board also considered that the balances relating to the Shanghai Subsidiaries brought forward from 31 December 2013 should be derecognised and therefore the financial effects were charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014. The Shanghai Subsidiaries were accounted for as available-for-sale investments as at 31 December 2015 and 2014.

In the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we were unable to ascertain whether it was appropriate to continue to derecognise the Shanghai Subsidiaries from the consolidated financial statements for the years ended 31 December 2015 and 2014. The derecognition of the financial position and results of the Shanghai Subsidiaries in the consolidated financial statements is a departure from the requirements of Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements". Due to the absence of the books and records of the Shanghai Subsidiaries, we were unable to quantify the financial effects arising from the departure from Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements".

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

Basis for disclaimer of opinion (Continued)

  1. Derecognition of and loss arising from Shanghai Subsidiaries (Continued)
    In addition, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to determine whether it was appropriate to account for the Shanghai Subsidiaries as available-for-sale investments and as to whether the carrying values of the investments in the Shanghai Subsidiaries was free from material misstatement. Any adjustments that might have been found to be necessary would have a consequential significant effect on the Group's net assets as at 31 December 2015 and the Group's financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended and the related classification and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
  2. Opening balances and corresponding figures
    The corresponding figures disclosed in the consolidated financial statements are based on the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2014. The auditor did not express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014.

As disclosed in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Board identified irregularities in the previous years' financial statements and the Securities and Futures Commission suggested that the bank statements and bank transfer documents provided by the Company were forged. The Securities and Futures Commission also concerned that the Company's annual results announcement and annual report for the year ended 31 December 2013 and the interim results and interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2014 had contained materially false, incomplete or misleading information and, as the Board was unable to gain access to the books and records of the Shanghai Subsidiaries and substantial part of accounting and computer records of the Company and its subsidiaries was no longer accessible, the Board believed that it was not practical, if not impossible, to verify the financial information as reported in the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2014 and past years. Accordingly, the comparative financial information disclosed in these consolidated financial statements may contain errors and omissions and has not been adjusted or reclassified and therefore may not be comparable with the figures for the current year.

The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014 therefore might not comply with the Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, or the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

As a result, in performing our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2015, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to satisfy ourselves as to whether the opening balances of assets, liabilities and reserves as at 1 January 2015 and the corresponding figures were fairly stated.

Any adjustments found to be necessary in respect thereof had we obtained sufficient appropriate audit evidence would have had a consequential effect on the net assets of the Group as at 1 January 2015, and of its financial performance and cash flows for the current and prior years, and the related disclosures thereof in the consolidated financial statements.

3. Revenue

As disclosed in note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the revenue of the Group mainly represented the sales of HPV detection products by a subsidiary namely Genetel Pharmaceuticals (Shenzhen) Company Limited ("Genetel Shenzhen") to hospitals and other customers (the "End Users"). However, Genetel Shenzhen did not enter into any sales contracts with the End Users. Genetel Shenzhen only entered into agreements (the "Sales Agreements") with distributors pursuant to which Genetel Shenzhen sold goods to the distributors. Under the Sales Agreements, Genetel Shenzhen shall deliver goods to the End Users upon receiving payments from the distributors (the "Payments") and issue sales invoices for the distributors to the End Users under the instructions from the distributors. The sales invoices issued by Genetel Shenzhen to the End Users were to be in amounts specified by the distributors without the Group having a price negotiating right. The selling price stated in the sales invoices to the End Users were higher than the selling price stated in the Sales Agreement with the distributors. In addition, there were no acknowledgement of goods receipt by the End Users available for our inspection. Notwithstanding the fact that no written agreements for sales were entered into between Genetel Shenzhen and the End Users, the Board considered that the End Users were customers of Genetel Shenzhen, therefore, the sales invoices issued for the End Users were recognised as revenue of the Group.

  1. Revenue (Continued)
    Under another agreement with the distributors, the distributors were appointed to perform technical and ancillary services to the End Users. Upon receiving of settlements of trade receivables from the End Users, Genetel Shenzhen was required to pay the distributors the technical service fees and refund the Payments to the distributors net of appropriate value added tax.
    In the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we were unable to ascertain whether the recognition of sales invoice amounts to the End Users as revenue was appropriate and the existence and accuracy of the revenue of HK$59,670,000 for the year ended 31 December 2015.
  2. Intangible assets, property, plant and equipment and impairment on intangible assets and property, plant and equipment
    As detailed in note 17 to the consolidated financial statements, there were intangible assets with cost of HK$1,271,609,000 and accumulated amortisation and impairment of HK$464,230,000 brought forward from 2013 of which HK$23,820,000 were fully impaired and HK$762,039,000 were derecognised upon derecognition of Shanghai Subsidiaries for the year ended 31 December 2014. Amortisation for intangible assets of HK$4,007,000 and HK$4,082,000 were charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the years ended 31 December 2015 and 2014 respectively. The carrying amount of the intangible assets as at 31 December 2015 and 2014 were HK$12,295,000 and HK$16,934,000, respectively. The intangible assets represented technical know-how held and used by Genetel Shenzhen. The Board was unable to locate the purchase agreements nor valuation reports at the date of the acquisition of these technical know-how. There were no other documents to support the costs and the carrying amount of these intangible assets. In this connection, the Board was unable to ascertain the accuracy of the cost and carrying amount of the intangible assets of HK$12,295,000 as at 31 December 2015 nor the amortisation of HK$4,007,000 charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2015.
    The Board carried out an impairment assessment on the cash generating unit of the manufacture and trading of HPV detection products and related equipment. As a result of the assessment, no impairment loss nor reversal of impairment loss was made for the year ended 31 December 2015. The recoverable amount of the cash generating unit has been determined by the Board based on value in use calculations. In preparing cash flow projections for the cash generating unit, the Board used certain bases and assumptions and the historical performance of Genetel Shenzhen. Given the facts that the revenue, trade receivables, technical services fees and other items of Genetel Shenzhen were qualified, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to ascertain the reasonableness of the assumptions and bases upon which the Board has employed in determining the recoverable amounts of the cash generating unit. There were no alternative audit procedures that we could perform to satisfy ourselves as to the carrying amount of the intangible assets of HK$12,295,000 and property, plant and equipment of HK$1,441,000 as at 31 December 2015 or whether any impairment loss or reversal of impairment loss for the year ended 31 December 2015 is necessary. Any adjustments to the carrying amounts of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment found to be necessary would affect the Group's net assets as at 31 December 2015, the Group's financial performance for the year then ended and the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
  3. Investments in a joint venture
    As disclosed in note 35 to the consolidated financial statements, the Group held 50% equity interest in a joint venture namely 天 津紅鬃馬醫院投資管理有限公司 ("天津紅鬃馬"), with a carrying amount of HK$14,765,000 as at 31 December 2013 which had been derecognised since 1 January 2014.
    The interest in 天津紅鬃馬 was held by the Shanghai Subsidiaries. Given that the Board was unable to take over the control of the Shanghai Subsidiaries, the Board was unable to obtain the books and records of 天津紅鬃馬. Therefore, the Group has not equity accounted for the financial statements of the joint venture for the years ended 31 December 2015 and 2014. In the absence of the relevant books and records, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to ascertain whether it was appropriate to derecognise the interest in a joint venture and not to equity account for the joint venture in the consolidated financial statements.

  1. Investments in an associate
    As disclosed in note 36 to the consolidated financial statements, the Group held 30% equity interest in an associate namely 天津中新科炬生物製藥有限公司 ("NewScen Coast"), with a carrying amount of HK$58,754,000 as at 31 December 2013 which had been derecognised since 1 January 2014.
    According to the information obtained, the 30% interest in NewScen Coast was held by the Shanghai Subsidiaries. Given that the Board was unable to take over the control of the Shanghai Subsidiaries, the new management was unable to obtain the books and records of NewScen Coast and therefore the Group has not equity accounted for the financial statements of the associate for the years ended 31 December 2015 and 2014. In addition, the Board noted that the Group was no longer the registered owner of the 30% interest in NewScen Coast in 2015. The new registered owners of the 30% interest in NewScen Coast were several individuals. The Board was unable to explain why the Group lost its 30% interest in NewScen Coast.
    In the absence of the relevant books and records, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to ascertain whether it was appropriate to derecognise the interest in an associate and not to equity account for the associate in the consolidated financial statements.
  2. Loan receivable and loan interest income
    As disclosed in note 20 to the consolidated financial statements, there was a loan receivable together with interest receivable totalling HK$83,738,000 due from an individual in the PRC (the "Individual"). On 14 November 2014, the Group entered into a loan agreement with the Individual pursuant to which the Group granted a loan of RMB66,000,000 (equivalent to HK$82,500,000) to the Individual. Pursuant to the loan agreement, the loan was secured by the Individual's 21% shareholding interest in the Company, bearing interest at 1% per month and repayable on 16 May 2015. The Individual failed to make repayment upon maturity and the loan became overdue for more than three years up to the date of approval of the consolidated financial statements. The Board noted that there was only one director's signature on the board minutes approving the loan and the security as stated in the board minutes was the Individual's interests in NewScen Coast, an associate of the Group instead of the individual's 21% shareholding interest in the Company as stated in the loan agreement. In addition, based on the information obtained, the Board noted that the Individual was neither a shareholder of the Company nor a shareholder of the associate of the Group.
    According to the available accounting records, the loan was made to the Individual through the current account with SHMY Biochip. Due to the fact that the Board was unable to gain access to the books and records of SHMY Biochip, the Board was unable to verify whether the loan was properly made to the Individual.

The Board was also unable to verify if the Individual hold 21% shareholding interest in the Company. In addition, up to the date of approval of the consolidated financial statements, no settlement was made by the Individual for the loan of HK$82,500,000 nor accrued interest receivable of HK$1,238,000. Therefore, the amount of loan and interest receivable of HK$83,738,000 was fully impaired during the year ended 31 December 2014. The Board was also unable to confirm if the loan of HK$118,000,000 brought forward from 2013 and the related loan interest income of HK$3,510,000 for the year ended 31 December 2014 was actually received by SHMY Biochip.

In the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we were unable to ascertain the existence and accuracy of the loan receivable of HK$82,500,000 and the related interest receivable of HK$1,238,000 and the impairment loss of HK$83,738,000 as at 31 December 2015 and 2014, the loan receivable of HK$118,000,000 brought forward from 2013 and the total interest income of HK$4,748,000 recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and whether the impairment loss on loan receivables of HK$83,738,000 charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014 were appropriate.

  1. Trade receivables
    As mentioned in paragraph 3, we were unable to ascertain the existence and accuracy of the revenue for the year ended 31 December 2015 and whether the recognition of sales invoice amounts to the End Users as revenue was appropriate. The trade receivables of HK$18,513,000 as at 31 December 2015 as stated in note 21 to the consolidated financial statements were arising from these revenue. No satisfactory confirmation replies were obtained from the End Users in relation to the outstanding trade receivables. Because of these scope limitations, there were no alternative audit procedures that we could perform to satisfy ourselves as to the existence, accuracy and valuation of the Group's trade receivables of HK$18,513,000 as at 31 December 2015 and the impairment loss on trade receivables of HK$114,000 charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2015. Consequently, we were unable to determine whether any adjustment to these amounts and disclosures was necessary.
  2. Other receivables
    As disclosed in note 21(c) to the consolidated financial statements, there were other receivables of RMB3,008,000 (equivalent to HK$3,590,000) brought forward from 2013 which had been outstanding in the books of Genetel Shenzhen for several years. The Board noted that there were no documentary evidence to confirm the nature and existence of these other receivables. At the same time, there were certain long outstanding receipts in advance of RMB2,242,000 (equivalent to HK$2,676,000) due to the same parties brought forward from 2013. The Board set off these other receivables with receipts in advance in 2015 and 2014 and the net balance of HK$957,000 was charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014 as an impairment loss on other receivables.
    In the absence of supporting documents, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to ascertain the existence, valuation, nature and accuracy of the other receivable and receipts in advance brought forward from previous years and whether the Group had the right to set off and the impairment loss on other receivable of HK$957,000 charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014 was appropriately recognised in the proper accounting period.
  3. Other payables
    As disclosed in note 23(e) to the consolidated financial statements, there was an amount of RMB3,209,000 (equivalent to HK$3,830,000) due to 香港港龍科技有限公司 in the books of Genetel Shenzhen. The Board noted that the amount was brought forward from previous years and there was no sufficient information to confirm the nature of this amount. In addition, according to the available information, there was no company registered in the name of 香港港龍科技有限公司 either in the PRC or Hong Kong.
    In the absence of appropriate supporting documents, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to ascertain the nature, existence and accuracy of the amount of HK$3,830,000 as included in the other payables as at 31 December 2015.
  4. Receipts in advance
    As disclosed in notes 23 and 23(b) to the consolidated financial statements, there were receipts in advance of HK$3,949,000 as at 31 December 2015 which represented the payments received from the distributors upon delivery of goods to the End Users as mentioned in paragraph 3 above. In the absence of the sufficient documentary evidence, we were unable to verify whether the recognition of the payments received from the distributors as liabilities is appropriate and as to the accuracy of the outstanding balances as at 31 December 2015.

  1. Income tax, income tax payable and deferred tax liabilities
    As disclosed in notes 12, 24 and 25 to the consolidated financial statements, the Group recorded income tax expense of HK$1,667,000 for the year ended 31 December 2015 and income tax payable of HK$1,487,000 and deferred tax liabilities of HK$4,298,000 as at 31 December 2015. We were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the revenue and certain expenses as mentioned in paragraphs 3 and 13 and note 24 to the consolidated financial statements and the books and records were incomplete. As a consequence, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence for us to verify the related taxes payable.
    There were no other practical alternative audit procedures that we could perform to satisfy ourselves as to the completeness and accuracy of the income tax expense of HK$1,667,000 recorded in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2015 and the income tax payable of HK$1,487,000 and deferred tax liabilities of HK$4,298,000 as at 31 December 2015.
  2. Technical service fees
    As disclosed in note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, there were technical service fees of HK$25,950,000 payable to the distributors as included in the administrative expenses for the year ended 31 December 2015. No sufficient documentary evidence were made available for us to ascertain the nature of the actual technical services provided by the distributors. Certain technical service fees of HK$22,034,000 were supported by invoices issued by third parties unrelated to the provision of the technical services.
    In the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we were unable to ascertain the completeness, existence and accuracy of the technical service fees of HK$25,950,000 for the year ended 31 December 2015 and the outstanding technical service fees payable of HK$10,112,000 as at 31 December 2015 as stated in note 23 to the consolidated financial statements.
  3. Payments made to an ex-director and Mr. Iu Chung
    As disclosed in note 31(c)(ii) to the consolidated financial statements, there were certain payments of HK$2,728,000 made to Mr. Yao Yuan, the ex-director of the Company and HK$1,233,000 to Mr. Iu Chung, by Genetel Shenzhen which were included in the administrative expenses for the year ended 31 December 2015. There were no supporting documents to substantiate the purpose, substance and nature of these payments. The Board advised that these payments were approved by the ex-directors of the Company who had left the Company.
    In the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we were unable to ascertain the purpose, substance and nature of these payments and there were no other satisfactory audit procedures that we could adopt to satisfy ourselves that the payments made to an ex-director and recognised as administrative expenses were properly accounted for and disclosed.
  4. Write back of an amount due to an ex-director
    As disclosed in note 10(a)(ii) to the consolidated financial statements, the write back of an amount due to an ex-director Mr. Chien Hoe Yong, Henry of HK$3,478,000 included an amount of HK$3,047,000 credited to the current account with the ex- director without any supporting documents made in 2014. The ex-director took legal actions against the Company for a total claim of HK$41,347,000 plus interest. In view of the fact that the case was dismissed in October 2016, the Board was of the opinion that the amount payable to the ex-director as recorded in the books of the Company should be written back to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended in 31 December 2014.
    In the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we were unable to ascertain the nature and accuracy of the amount of HK$3,478,000 and whether the write back of the amount due to an ex-director as other income was appropriate and recognised in the proper accounting period.

  1. Directors' and chief executive's and employees' emoluments and amounts due to ex-directors
    As disclosed in note 13 the consolidated financial statements, there were directors' emoluments of HK$2,382,000 and employees' emoluments of HK$1,523,000 for the year ended 31 December 2015 for ex-directors and ex-employees respectively. As a substantial part of the accounting records is no longer accessible and the ex-directors and ex-employees had left the Company, the Board was unable to locate documentary evidence to verify the accuracy and payments of the directors' emoluments and employees' emoluments.
    As disclosed in note 31(a) to the consolidated financial statements, there were amounts due to ex-directors of HK$1,976,000 as at 31 December 2015. The Board noted that amounts were mainly comprised of accrued directors' emoluments for the ex-directors. Up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the amounts remained outstanding. As the ex-directors had left the Company, the Board was unable to provide documentary evidence to verify the accuracy of the outstanding balances as at 31 December 2015.
    In the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we were unable to ascertain the existence, accuracy and completeness of the directors' emoluments of HK$2,382,000 and an amount of HK$1,523,000 as included in the employees' emoluments of HK$3,508,000 for the year ended 31 December 2015 as disclosed in note 13 to the consolidated financial statements and the amounts due to ex-directors of HK$1,976,000 as at 31 December 2015 as disclosed in note 31(a) to the consolidated financial statements.
  2. Litigations and contingent liabilities
    As disclosed in notes 37 and 38 to the consolidated financial statements, the Group, its joint venture and ex-directors of the Company were involved in a number of litigations in the PRC. Given the fact that the Board was unable to take over the control of the Shanghai Subsidiaries and gain access to their books and records, the Board was unable to ascertain the accuracy or completeness of the disclosure regarding the litigations and contingent liabilities of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2015 and the subsequent period up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements.
    In the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we were unable to determine whether all provisions and contingent liabilities have been properly accounted for and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Hong Kong Accounting Standard 37 "Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets".
  3. Incomplete books and records and the Board's representations
    As disclosed in note 2(e) to the consolidated financial statements, the Board began to take over the control of the Company and its subsidiaries from 20 May 2016. As the Board was not appointed until 20 May 2016, the Board could not ensure whether the accounting books and records of the Group had been properly maintained for the years ended 31 December 2014 and 2015. Together with the facts that the consolidated financial statements were prepared based on incomplete books and records, the Board was also unable to confirm that the consolidated financial statements comply with HKFRSs, or that the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited have been complied with.
    Accordingly, we have been unable to obtain written representations from the Board that the accounting records were properly maintained, the consolidated financial statements complied with HKFRSs, the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited throughout the two years ended 31 December 2014 and 2015.

  1. Incomplete books and records and the Board's representations (Continued)
    The lack of written representations as mentioned above from the Board has called into question the reliability of the financial and other information and documents provided by the management that undermined our ability to rely on the Group's system of internal control to safeguard the proper maintenance of accounting records and documentation. Given these circumstances, there were no practicable audit procedures that we could perform to satisfy ourselves that the information and documents presented to us for the purpose of our audit are complete and accurate in all material respects, or to quantify the extent of adjustments that might be necessary in respect of the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015, including the corresponding figures and the opening balances as at 1 January 2015.
  2. Amounts due from subsidiaries
    As at 31 December 2015, included in the statement of financial position of the Company as disclosed in note 33 to the consolidated financial statements are amounts due from subsidiaries of HK$148,277,000. Due to the scope limitations as detailed in paragraphs 1 to 18 above, we have not been able to satisfy ourselves as to the fairness of the amounts carried as amounts due from subsidiaries in the statement of financial position of the Company or to determine whether any provision for impairment loss is necessary as at 31 December 2015. Any adjustments that might have been found to be necessary in respect of the above would have a consequential effect on the net assets of the Company as at 31 December 2015.

Disclaimer of opinion

Because of the significance of the matters described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion paragraphs, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as to whether they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group as at 31 December 2015 and of the Group's financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards and as to whether the consolidated financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

Emphasis of matter

We draw attention to note 2(g) to the consolidated financial statements which indicated that the Group had net current liabilities of HK$3,030,000 as at 31 December 2015 and incurred a loss of HK$7,389,000 for the year ended 31 December 2015 and based on management accounts, the Group was still operating at a loss up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements. The Group's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the ongoing availability of finance to the Group, including financial

support from a substantial shareholder who is also the Chairman and a director of the Company. If the finance is

not available, the Group

would be unable to meet its financial

obligations as and when they fall

due.

These

conditions,

along

with

other

matters as set forth in

note 2(g) to the consolidated financial

statements, indicate the existence

of a

material

uncertainty

which

may

cast

significant doubt about

the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter,

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 31 December 2015

1. GENERAL

The Company is a public limited liability company incorporated in Bermuda and its shares are listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange"). The address of the registered office and principal place of business of the Company are located at Canon's Court, 22 Victoria Street, Hamilton HM 12, Bermuda and 11/F, Shum Tower, 268 Des Voeux Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong respectively.

The Company is an investment holding company. The principal activities of its principal subsidiaries at 31 December 2015 are set out in Note 32.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

  1. Suspension of trading in shares of the Company
    At the request of the Company, trading in the shares of the Company has been suspended since 1 April 2015 as the Company was unable to publish annual results for the year ended 31 December 2014 by 31 March 2015. In addition, the Securities and Futures Commission (the "SFC") has directed the Stock Exchange to suspend all dealings in the shares of the Company commencing from 23 October 2017 under Rule 8(1) of the Securities and Futures (Stock Market Listing) Rules ("SMLR").
    The Company received a letter dated 4 October 2017 from the SFC which set out the SFC's concern about the Company's annual results announcement and annual report for the year ended 31 December 2013 and the interim results and interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2014 and that certain bank statements and bank transfer documents provided by the Company contained materially false, incomplete or misleading information. The SFC suggested that the bank statements and bank transfer documents provided by the Company were forged. The Company has still to assess the impact of the SFC's direction under Rule 8(1) of SMLR and will seek legal advice accordingly.
  2. Comparative information
    The comparative figures disclosed in the consolidated financial statements are based on the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014. The auditor did not express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014. In addition, in view of (i) the findings of the SFC as set out

in note 2(a) above, (ii) the issues as set out in notes 2(d), 2(e) and 2(f) below which relating to the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the previous years and (iii) incomplete books and records, the board of directors of the Company since 20 May 2016 (the "Board") believed that it was not practical, if not impossible, to verify the financial information as stated in the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2014 and past years. The Board was of the view that the comparative financial information disclosed in those consolidated financial statements may contain errors and omissions and not be reliable. The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014 therefore might not comply with the Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, or the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. The comparative financial information has not been adjusted or reclassified and therefore may not be comparable and any adjustments to the opening balances as at 1 January 2015 would have a significant consequential effect on the financial performance of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2015 and/ or the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2015.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 31 December 2015

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Continued)

  1. Removal of a director Mr. Zhao Chao
    Since the end of December 2014, the Group was unable to contact Mr. Zhao Chao ("Mr. Zhao"), a former executive director of the Company who was responsible for overseeing the operation of the medical centres management division of the Group. On 2 March 2015, Mr. Zhao had been arrested by the People's Procuratorate of Binhai New Area, Tianjin (天津市濱海新區人民檢察院) (the "PPT") in relation to a bribery criminal charge. Mr. Zhao was further detained by the PPT on a detention order dated 16 March 2015 on corruption charges. A bail order dated 14 April 2015 was issued to Mr. Zhao pending trial. On 5 June 2015, Mr. Zhao was removed as director by the board of directors for reasons of Mr. Zhao's failure of reporting his detention and arrest by the PPT on bribery and corruption related charges. On 9 June 2015, the Company and the ex-directors namely Mr. Yao Yuan ("Mr. Yao"), Mr. Yu Ti Jun, Mr. Yao Liang and Mr. Yang Chun Bao received an originating summons issued by the Court of the First Instance of the High Court of Hong Kong (the "High Court") pursuant to which Mr. Zhao sought the removal of him from his office as executive director be set aside and the reinstatement of Mr. Zhao as executive director. On 22 March 2016, the High Court issued a judgment pursuant to which the application from Mr. Zhao was dismissed. Mr. Zhao was the legal representative of 天津紅鬃馬醫院投資管 理有限公司, a joint venture of the Group which was derecognised since 1 January 2014.
  2. Unresolved Matter identified by the predecessor auditor
    During the audit in respect of the financial year ended 31 December 2014, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, the predecessor auditor (the "Predecessor Auditor") of the Company visited a bank in the PRC to confirm a bank account balance of

RMB420,245,000 (equivalent to HK$525,044,000). However, the Predecessor Auditor was told by the bank staff that the bank account belonged to an individual instead of the Company's subsidiary SHMY HealthDigit Biochip Company Limited ("SHMY Biochip") and the bank account was opened in a branch elsewhere (the "Unresolved Matter"). The findings call into question the validity of the bank account with a balance totaling RMB420,245,000 as at 31 December 2014 and the underlying transactions. The Predecessor Auditor reported the Unresolved Matter to the then board of directors and audit committee and recommended that an independent forensic investigation be undertaken to address the Unresolved Matter. On 6 October 2015, an independent board committee (the "IBC") comprising two of the independent non-executive directors of the Company was established to conduct an investigation on the Unresolved Matter. However, no independent forensic investigation was conducted. On 21 December 2015, the Predecessor Auditor resigned with the reason that the Company failed to undertake an independent forensic investigation in respect of the Unresolved Matter. The then management was replaced by the Board on 20 May 2016. After the change of directors on 20 May 2016 as stated in note 2(e) to the consolidated financial statements, a new IBC was formed. On 3 June 2016 Control Risks Pacific Limited (the "Independent Forensic Investigator") was engaged to conduct a forensic investigation on the Unresolved Matter.

The Independent Forensic Investigator has confirmed that the bank confirmation produced by the then management to the Predecessor Auditor of the Company was forged and that SHMY Biochip did not and does not hold the bank account. Up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the Unresolved Matter remains outstanding as the Company was unable to gain access to the accounting and banking records of SHMY Biochip and thus, the Independent Forensic Investigator was unable to conduct further investigations.

The Board noted that the bank balances of RMB420,245,000 included an amount of RMB396,000,000 which was allegedly recovered from an unrelated entity in the PRC. The details are set out in note 2(f)(iii).

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Continued)

  1. Matters subsequent to the change in directors on 20 May 2016
    As at 19 May 2016, the Company has 7 directors (the "ex-directors") with Mr. Yao Yuan as the Chairman of the board. Pursuant to the resolution passed at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 20 May 2016, Mr. Yao Yuan and Mr. Yu Ti Jun were removed as executive director and non-executive director respectively and the remaining one executive and four independent non-executive directors retired from the board of the Company and 7 new directors were appointed.
    Since 20 May 2016, the Board began to take over the control of the Company and its subsidiaries from the ex-directors. As at the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the Board has successfully taken over the control of the Company and its subsidiaries, with the following exceptions:
    1. 上海銘源數康生物芯片有限公司 SHMY HealthDigit Biochip Company Limited ("SHMY Biochip") and its subsidiary
      On 12 August 2016, HD Global Limited removed the former directors and legal representative of SHMY Biochip and appointed new directors and a legal representative by way of a shareholder's resolution. However, the Board is still unable to gain access to the premises of SHMY Biochip. In early November 2016, the Company issued civil claims against Mr. Yao Yuan, being the registered legal representative of SHMY Biochip for the return of the company seals and business licenses of SHMY Biochip. The Company lost the lawsuit and the appeal against such judgement was unsuccessful. At present, the Board is unable to gain access to the premises of SHMY Biochip. The Company under the advice of its PRC lawyer, reported the loss of the company seals and business licenses and to apply for the issuance of new company seals and business licenses of SHMY. Although the Group was able to obtain agreement from Mr. Yao Yuan to cooperate to change the legal representative of Genetel Shenzhen from Mr. Yao Yuan to a person nominated by the Board in May 2018, the Board was unable to obtain the signature from Mr. Yao Yuan to change the legal representative of SHMY Biochip. On 28 February 2018, Chairman Mr. Lam Ping Cheung, on behalf of the Company, wrote to the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the "Liaison Office") to seek the Liaison Office's assistance in re-gaining control of SHMY Biochip. From March 2018 to October 2018, officers of the Shanghai Administration for Industry and Commerce ("SHAIC") had several meetings with the Company's PRC lawyer concerning the registration of change of legal representative, the reported loss of the business licenses and company seals and the re-issuance of the same. The PRC lawyer had fulfilled the relevant requirements as informed by an official of the Registration Division of Foreign Invested Enterprises of SHAIC. Prior to the re-issuance of the business licenses and company seals, some staff members of SHMY Biochip had informed SHAIC that the business licenses and company seals were in their possession. As such, SHAIC was unable to treat the business licenses and company seals as loss properties and to re-issue the same to the new management. Having considered further advice from the PRC lawyer, the Company decided to apply for retrial of the civil claims against Mr. Yao Yuan for the recovery of the business licenses and company seals. As at the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, Mr. Yao Yuan remained the registered legal representative of SHMY Biochip. In these circumstances, the Board was unable to take control over the management and operations of SHMY Biochip and its subsidiary.

  1. Matters subsequent to the change in directors on 20 May 2016 (Continued)
    1. 上海數康生物科技有限公司 Shanghai HealthDigit Co., Ltd ("Shanghai HealthDigit") and its subsidiaries
      On 12 August 2016, HD Global removed the former directors and legal representative of Shanghai HealthDigit and appointed new directors and a legal representative by way of a shareholders' resolution. However, the Board is still unable to gain access to the premises of Shanghai HealthDigit. In early November 2016, the Company issued civil claims against Mr. Iu Chung ("Mr. Iu"), being the registered legal representative of Shanghai HealthDigit for the return of the company seals and business licenses of Shanghai HealthDigit. The Shanghai Xu Hui People's Court ruled in favour of Shanghai HealthDigit and Mr. Iu was ordered to surrender the company seals and the business licenses within 10 days from the date when the judgment took effect (that was, 8 March 2018). The Company was later informed by its lawyer in the PRC that Mr. Iu filed an appeal in respect of the judgment made by the Shanghai Xu Hui People's Court. On 30 August 2018, the appeal was successful and the appeal court revoked the judgment made by lower court. On 28 February 2018, Chairman Mr. Lam Ping Cheung, on behalf of the Company, wrote to the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region to seek the Liaison Office's assistance in re-gaining control of Shanghai HealthDigit. From March 2018 to October 2018, officers of SHAIC had several meetings with the Company's PRC lawyer concerning the registration of change of legal representative, the reported loss of the business licenses and company seals and the re-issuance of the same. The PRC lawyer had fulfilled the relevant requirements as informed by an official of the Registration Division of Foreign Invested Enterprises of

SHAIC. Prior to the re-issuance of the business licenses and company seals, some staff members of Shanghai HealthDigit had informed SHAIC that the business licenses and company seals were in their possession. As such, SHAIC was unable to treat the business licenses and company seals as loss properties and to re-issue the same to the new management. Having considered further advice from the PRC lawyer, the Company decided to apply for retrial of the civil claims against Mr. Iu Chung for the recovery of the business licenses and company seals. As at the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, Mr. Iu Chung remained the registered legal representative of Shanghai HealthDigit. In addition, the Board was unable to gain access to the premises of Shanghai HealthDigit. In these circumstances, the Board was unable to take control over the management and operations of Shanghai HealthDigit.

Given the above circumstances, the Board was unable to take control over the management and operations of SHMY Biochip and Shanghai HealthDigit and their subsidiaries (together the "Shanghai Subsidiaries") nor direct the relevant activities of the Shanghai Subsidiaries which significantly affected the Shanghai Subsidiaries' return and could not gain access to the premises, assets and the accounting books and records of the Shanghai Subsidiaries. The Board considered that the control over the Shanghai Subsidiaries was lost.

In the absence of relevant books and records of the Shanghai Subsidiaries, the Board has no information to consolidate the financial statements of the Shanghai Subsidiaries into these consolidated financial statements and the financial statements of the Shanghai Subsidiaries were derecognised from these consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 31 December 2015

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Continued)

  1. Matters subsequent to the change in directors on 20 May 2016 (Continued)
    The Board of the Company acknowledged that it is the responsibility of the directors to prepare consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (the "HKFRSs") issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the "HKICPA"). However, prior to their appointment, the Company's hard drives in the computers in its Hong Kong office had been removed and its banking documents taken away, as a result of which its computer records including details of all bank transactions were no longer accessible. A substantial part of the accounting and computer records of the Company and its subsidiaries, which was contained in the hard drives, is also no longer accessible. The Company reported the matter to the Hong Kong police. The Board of the Company can only prepare the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2015 based on the books and records made available to them. As the Board was not appointed until 20 May 2016, the Board could not ensure whether the accounting books and records of the Group had been properly maintained for the years ended 31 December 2015 and 2014.
    As a result, the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 have been prepared based on incomplete records and since no financial information of the Shanghai Subsidiaries was made available, the financial performance and financial position of the Shanghai Subsidiaries were not consolidated into these consolidated financial statements. The Board considered that the balances relating to the Shanghai Subsidiaries brought forward from 31 December 2013 should be derecognised and therefore the financial effects were charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014, the details of which are set out in note 34.

Any adjustments arising from the matters described above would have a consequential significant effect on the loss of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2015 and net assets of the Group as at 31 December 2015.

Due to the limited financial information available and as most of the former key accounting personnel of the Group had left, the Board was unable to obtain sufficient documentary information to satisfy itself regarding the validity and completeness of the Group's books and records and the appropriateness of the treatment of various balances as included in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 and 2014.

As the consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on incomplete books and records, the Board is unable to represent that proper accounting books and records have been maintained for the years ended 31 December 2014 and 2015, or whether all transactions entered into by the Group for the years ended 31 December 2014 and 2015 have been properly reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The Board is also unable to represent as to the completeness, existence and accuracy of information contained in and the disclosures of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the HKFRSs, the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and the Listing Rules.

Genetel Shenzhen adopted "Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises" for the preparation of its financial statements. Although the Standards were in line with "The Accounting Law of the People's Republic of China," and were accepted by The Ministry of Finance, they were not in total compliance with the disclosure requirements of the HKFRSs. As certain records had not been kept by Genetel Shenzhen, the existing directors could not locate all the necessary documents and information to compile the financial statements in accordance with the HKFRSs.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 31 December 2015

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Continued)

  1. Irregularities identified by the Board
    Since the Board took over the control of the Group, the Board identified the following questionable transactions in previous years.
    1. Shanghai Yuanqi Acquisition and loss of 70% equity interest in Shanghai Yuanqi
      On 5 August 2011, the Company announced the acquisition of 70% equity interest in a company, 上海源 奇生物醫藥科技有限公司 (Shanghai Yuanqi Bio-Pharmaceutical Company Limited) ("Shanghai Yuanqi") in the PRC by a wholly-owned subsidiary, SHMY Biochip for a consideration of RMB354,000,000, of which RMB225,000,000 was to be paid in cash and the remaining balance of RMB129,000,000 to be satisfied by the issue of 326,871,967 new shares of the Company at HK$0.478 per share as consideration shares (the "Acquisition Announcement").
      In the Acquisition Announcement, the 70% equity interest of Shanghai Yuanqi was alleged to have been sold by Mr. Yan Rong Rong ("Yan") as to 51% and Madam Xiong Hui ("Xiong") as to 19% to SHMY Biochip.
      On 18 May 2015, Xiong commenced a civil complaint at the People's Court of Feng Xian District, City of Shanghai, the PRC. The civil complaint of Xiong and a search of the documents kept at the Administration of Industry and Commerce revealed that:
      1. A different Equity Transfer Agreement to what the Company announced was entered into on the same day of 5 August 2011 between SHMY Biochip, Yan and Xiong whereat the total consideration for the 70% equity interest of Shanghai Yuanqi was agreed at RMB354,000,000 represented by the issuance of 896,997,491 shares of the Company of which 243,470,711 shares were to be issued to Xiong to satisfy the payment for her 19% equity interest in Shanghai Yuanqi. No cash was required to be paid by SHMY Biochip to either Yan or Xiong. At the material times, Mr. Iu, the brother of the then chairman of the board Mr. Yao Yuan, was the legal representative of SHMY Biochip.
      2. By an agreement dated 18 March 2014 between SHMY Biochip and Xiong whereat it was agreed that SHMY Biochip would pay Xiong RMB60 million to settle the unpaid consideration shares for her 19% interest before 30 August 2014.
      3. On the same day of 18 March 2014, a Debt Convert-to-Shares Agreement was entered into between SHMY Biochip and Xiong whereat SHMY Biochip acknowledged the debt of RMB60 million owed to Xiong and agreed to transfer all the 70% equity interest in Shanghai Yuanqi to Xiong if the debt was not paid.
      4. SHMY Biochip did not pay the debt to Xiong and Xiong commenced the civil complaint to enforce her alleged right under the Debt Convert-to-Shares Agreement. In the statement of civil complaint dated 18 May 2015 issued by Xiong, it was stated that SHMY Biochip only gave Xiong a confirmation of entitlement to 88,722,391 shares in the Company on 21 December 2011 (as opposed to the actual delivery of the shares). The balance of 154,748,320 shares had never been issued to Xiong.

According to the records in the Administration of Industry and Commerce, the 70% equity interest in Shanghai Yuanqi owned by SHMY Biochip was transferred to Xiong by agreement between SHMY Biochip and Xiong on 18 February 2016. As a result, the Group lost its 70% equity interest in Shanghai Yuanqi.

  1. Irregularities identified by the Board (Continued)
    1. Shanghai Yuanqi Acquisition and loss of 70% equity interest in Shanghai Yuanqi (Continued)
      Findings by the Board
      Shortly before the acquisition, Yan's 51% interest in Shanghai Yuanqi was acquired from a person called Mr. Zhu Cong Zhen (朱從真) ("Zhu") for RMB1.02 million on 21 June 2011. When Yan sold his 51% interest, the Company paid (allegedly) cash RMB163,928,571 and 238,149,576 consideration shares of the Company at HK$0.478 per share. The Equity Transfer Agreement produced by Xiong, to which Yan was a party, stated that no cash payment was to be paid to Yan as well.
      At all material times, Zhu and Xiong were directors of Shanghai Yuanqi.
      The then management of the Company had not disclosed to the shareholders the relationship of Zhu and Xiong and that Yan only acquired the 51% equity interest from Zhu, less than 2 months ago at the price of RMB1.02 million.
      Further enquiry with the branch share registrar of the Company in Hong Kong has confirmed the issuance of a total of 238,149,576 shares of the Company to Yan and 88,722,391 shares to Xiong on 23 December 2011 as consideration shares pursuant to the terms of the acquisition as mentioned in the Acquisition Announcement.
      The consideration shares issued to Yan exceeded 5% of the then total issued capital of the Company and Yan was required to disclose his interest to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Company according to the SFO. But Yan had not done so. There is no evidence available to the existing directors that the consideration shares were actually delivered to Yan and Xiong, albeit they were issued in their names. Records show that Yan transferred all his 238,149,576 shares from January 2012 to May 2012 except 50,000,000 shares which are still in Yan's name. Xiong transferred all her 88,722,391 shares in May 2014.

The Board does not have information to confirm the actual payment of the cash consideration of RMB163,928,571 and RMB61,071,429 to Yan and Xiong respectively. In her civil complaint in a PRC court, Xiong claimed the agreement to sell her 19% equity interest was for consideration shares of the Company only and she had only received a confirmation as to her entitlement to 88,722,391 shares as opposed to the actual shares. The loss of Shanghai Yuanqi's interest had a significant impact on the net asset of the Company.

  1. Disposal of Shanghai Weiyi Hospital Investment and Management Limited
    On 19 December 2011, the then company secretary Mr. Kenny Poon ("Mr. Poon") announced on behalf of the board the disposal of the Group's 51% interest in a PRC subsidiary namely, Shanghai Weiyi Hospital Investment and Management Limited ("Shanghai Weiyi") by its wholly-owned subsidiary, Shanghai HealthDigit to Madam Jiang Yi (蔣毅) ("Jiang") for a consideration of RMB65,000,000 (the"Disposal Announcement"). On 4 January 2012, the Company announced the completion of the disposal.
    At all material times, Mr. Yao was the chairman of board of the Company and his brother Mr. Iu was the legal representative of Shanghai HealthDigit.
    On 25 April 2014, more than two years after the completion of the disposal, the Company announced that a loan agreement dated 20 December 2011 was entered into between Shanghai HealthDigit and Shanghai Weiyi whereby Shanghai HealthDigit agreed to lend to Shanghai Weiyi a loan of RMB85,240,000 for a term of two years ended on 19 December 2013 (the "Loan Announcement"). It was said in the Loan Announcement that Shanghai HealthDigit had subsequently recovered the loan from Shanghai Weiyi.

    1. Disposal of Shanghai Weiyi Hospital Investment and Management Limited (Continued)
      The Board located a judgment dated 30 July 2013 issued by the Shanghai City First Intermediate People's Court, the PRC which has revealed different facts from those announced by the Company.
      According to the judgement located, the action was brought by 上海銘源實業集團有限公司 Shanghai Mingyuan Enterprises Group Limited ("Shanghai Mingyuan") as plaintiff against 道格特醫療科技(深圳)有限公 司 Dao Ge Te Medical Technology (Shenzhen) Company Limited ("Dao Ge Te") and 上海天壇普華醫院有限公 司 ("Tian Tan") Shanghai Tian Tan Pu Hwa Hospital Company Limited ("Tian Tan") as defendants to enforce a share charge of all the Shanghai Weiyi shares (see below). According to the evidence produced by Shanghai Mingyuan at the trial, the following facts were presented:
  1. By an agreement dated 9 August 2010 ("9 August 2010 agreement") entered into between Jiang, Mr. Yang Xing (楊興) ("Yang") and Mr. Tang Hon Ming (唐洪明) ("Tang") as sellers (the "Sellers") and Dao Ge Te and 亞太醫療集團有限公司 as purchasers (the "Purchasers"), the Sellers sold all their 100% shares in Shanghai Weiyi to the Purchasers for a consideration of RMB40 million in cash and RMB120 million worth of floating listed company's shares. The Purchasers designated Dao Ge Te and Tian Tan as the registered owners as to 51% and 49% of the registered capital of Shanghai Weiyi respectively.
  2. Shanghai Mingyuan is a company in PRC owned and controlled by Mr. Yao and Mr. Iu.
  3. Pursuant to the agreement, cash consideration of RMB40,000,000 was paid on 7 December 2010 in Hong Kong currency by a cheque of HK$46,790,000 issued by a Hong Kong solicitors firm Messrs Angela Ho & Associates to Ming Yuan Holdings Limited, which was owned and controlled by Mr. Yao and Mr. Iu.
  4. Completion of the sale took place on 21 December 2010. On 31 December 2010, Dao Ge Te and Tian Tan each executed a share charge on all 100% shares in Shanghai Weiyi in favour of Shanghai Mingyuan for their obligations to pay the balance of consideration of RMB120 million worth of floating listed shares.
  5. The share charges were registered in January 2011 with the Hong-Kou Branch of the Shanghai Administration of Industry and Commerce.
  6. Jiang, Yang and Tang held the 100% shares in Shanghai Weiyi for Shanghai Mingyuan as nominee holders.
  7. After the hearing of the action, Shanghai City First Intermediate People's Court ordered the validity of the share charge which was later confirmed by the Shanghai City Higher People's Court on appeal by the Purchasers in 2015.

The evidence Shanghai Mingyuan produced in the hearing of the action contradicted with what the Company announced on 6 July 2006 about the independence of the sellers, namely Tang and Yang from whom the Company acquired the 51% equity interest. All along, Tang and Yang were nominees of the 51% equity interest in Shanghai Weiyi for Shanghai Mingyuan, a company owned by Mr. Yao and Mr. Iu.

    1. Disposal of Shanghai Weiyi Hospital Investment and Management Limited (Continued) Further findings by the Board

Contrary to what the Disposal Announcement of the Company disclosed, on 8 November 2010, Shanghai HealthDigit transferred all its 51% equity interest in Shanghai Weiyi to Jiang at the price of RMB68,000,000 and the transfer agreement dated the same day of 8 November 2010 between Shanghai HealthDigit and Jiang was filed with the Hong-Kou Branch of the Shanghai Administration of Industry and Commerce.

In fact, by 8 November 2010, Shanghai HealthDigit had transferred the 51% equity interest in Shanghai Weiyi in favour of Jiang, for RMB68,000,000. Jiang was the nominee for Shanghai HealthDigit which in turn was owned by Mr. Yao and Mr. Iu. The cheque in the sum of HK$46,790,000 issued by the Hong Kong solicitors firm Messrs Angela Ho & Associates as cash consideration paid by the Purchasers under the 9 August 2010 agreement was paid to Ming Yuan Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands company owned and controlled by Mr. Yao and Mr. Iu. Mr. Poon issued an acknowledgment of receipt of the payment on behalf of the Sellers. On the acknowledgement of receipt, Mr. Yao also signed for Shanghai Mingyuan.

At the time of making the Disposal Announcement for the purported disposal of 51% equity interest in Shanghai Weiyi by Shanghai HealthDigit to Jiang, the Company had already transferred the 51% equity interest to Jiang on 8 November 2010, who subsequently transferred the same to the Dao Ge Te and Tian Tan on 21 December 2010. Mr. Poon acknowledged the receipt of the cash consideration paid by the Purchasers and the recipient of the cheque was a company owned by Mr. Yao and Mr. Iu.

As such, when the Disposal Announcement was made, Mr. Poon and Mr. Yao knew that the contents of the Disposal Announcement were not true.

The existing directors of the Company could not identify any evidence showing that the loan to Shanghai Weiyi in the sum of RMB85.24 million had been paid to Shanghai HealthDigit as announced by the then management in the Loan Announcement.

The purported sale of the 51% interest in Shanghai Weiyi on 19 December 2011 was a fraud, given the fact that the Company had already transferred such interest to Jiang on 8 November 2010.

  1. Irregularities identified by the Board (Continued)
    1. Foreign Exchange Agreement
      During the year ended 31 December 2013, the Group deposited RMB396,000,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$507,197,000) (the "Payment") to a company incorporated in Beijing, the PRC namely 北京農龍投資管理 有限公司 (Beijing Nong Long Investment Management Company Limited) (the "Beijing Company") for certain treasury arrangement. The Payment was made pursuant to an agreement dated 23 December 2013 between the Beijing Company and SHMY Biochip pursuant to which the Beijing Company agreed to exchange the Payment into Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong within three months, at an agreed exchange rate and subject to a service charge by the PRC Entity, and convert the Payment into Hong Kong dollars to the Company on or before 22 March 2014. If the Beijing Company was unable to effect the conversion, the Beijing Company would refund the Payment to SHMY Biochip within three working days. The amount is interest-free, unsecured and repayable on demand. The Beijing Company failed to deliver the Hong Kong currency in Hong Kong. The ex- directors were still in the negotiation with the Beijing Company in relation to the repayment of such amount. Despite the ex-directors were of the view that such amount could be recovered but since no agreement had been reached in relation to the date of repayment, the entire amount had been impaired during the year ended 31 December 2013.
      On 9 June 2014, the Company announced that the full amount was recovered and the Group recognized the full amount recovered as "recovery of other receivable previously written off" in other gains in the interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2014. Purportedly, the whole amount of RMB396,000,000 was recovered by SHMY Biochip in May and June 2014. However, the Board was unable to ascertain whether or not the Payment had been fully recovered as the Board was unable to gain access to the books and records of SHMY Biochip. Subsequently, a sum of RMB420,000,000 was withdrawn from a bank account but details of the transfer were unknown. For reasons as disclosed in note 34, the financial performance of SHMY Biochip were derecognised in these consolidated financial statements. Therefore, no other gains in respect of the allegedly recovery is recognized in these consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014.
      The Payment had raised concern of the Listing Department of the Stock Exchange. On 28 June 2016, the Listing Committee conducted a hearing into the conduct of the Company and the relevant directors in respect of this transaction. The Listing Committee found that the Payment constituted financial assistance by the Company to the Beijing Company and it was a non-exempt transaction and subject to the requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. Based on the size of the Payment, it constituted a major transaction subject to announcement requirements under Rule 14.34 and shareholder approval requirement under Rule 14.40 of the Listing Rules. The Company had not obtained shareholders' approval before the Payment was made and only disclosed, with delay, on 31 March 2014. The Listing Committee concluded that the Company breached Rules 14.34 and 14.40 of the Listing Rules. The Company and six ex-directors were censured by the Stock Exchange on 28 September 2016.

  1. Going concern
    During the year ended 31 December 2015, the Group incurred a loss of HK$7,389,000 (2014: HK$868,182,000) and had net current liabilities of HK$3,030,000 as at 31 December 2015. Based on management accounts, the Group was still operating at a loss up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements.
    The major loan liabilities of the Group as at the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements included loans and loan interests payable to Mr. Lam Ping Cheung and Lam & Co. of HK$10,075,000 and loans and interests payable to Eastern Wealth Development Limited ("Eastern Wealth") of HK$27,292,000.
    In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the Board has given careful consideration to the impact of the current and anticipated future liquidity of the Group and the ability of the Group to attain profit and positive cash flows from operations in the immediate and longer term. The ability of the Group to operate as a going concern is dependent upon the availability of the credit facilities provided by Mr. Lam Ping Cheung, a substantial shareholder of the Company and being the Chairman and director of the Company and Eastern Wealth and the future business performance of the Group. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Notwithstanding the above, the Board considered that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these consolidated financial statements.
    The Board is satisfied that the Group will have sufficient financial resources to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due in the foreseeable future after taking into consideration of the following:
    1. Loan facilities from Mr. Lam Ping Cheung and Lam & Co
      On 12 September 2016, the Company and Mr. Lam Ping Cheung entered into a loan agreement pursuant to which Mr. Lam agreed to make available to the Company a credit facility of HK$5,000,000 for two years for the ordinary course of business of the Group. The loan bears interest at 8% per annum which shall not be payable unless and until the maturity of the loan.
      On 18 May 2018, the Company and Mr. Lam Ping Cheung entered into a supplementary agreement pursuant to which the term of the loan agreement shall be extended for 2 years to 11 September 2020.
      As of the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the outstanding loan and accrued interests amounted to HK$2,992,000 and HK$655,000 respectively. The remaining loan facility available for future use under the loan agreement amounted to HK$2,008,000.
      On 18 May 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Lam & Co for a loan facility of HK$40,000,000 for use in the ordinary course of business of the Group. The loan bears interest at 8% per annum. Interest on loan shall not be payable unless and until the maturity of the loan under the loan agreement.
      All outstanding principal and accrued interest under the loan agreement shall be repayable by the Company within 3 months upon written demand by Lam & Co. However, Lam & Co undertakes not to demand repayment of all outstanding principal and accrued interest under the loan agreement within 5 years from the date of the loan agreement.
      As of the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the outstanding loan and accrued interests amounted to HK$6,000,000 and HK$428,000 respectively. The remaining loan facility available for future use under the loan agreement amounted to HK$34,000,000.

    1. Loan facilities from Eastern Wealth
      On 27 September 2016, the Company and Eastern Wealth entered into a loan agreement pursuant to which Eastern Wealth made available to the Company a credit facility of HK$30,000,000 (the first loan agreement). The loan bears interest at 10% per annum and shall not be payable unless and until the maturity of the loan under the terms of the first loan agreement. The credit facility was for a period of three years from the date of the first loan agreement.
      On 18 May 2018, the Company and Eastern Wealth entered into a supplementary agreement to extend the term of the loan to 26 September 2020 and Eastern Wealth undertakes not to demand for repayment of the loan and accrued interest by one more year to 26 September 2020.
      As of the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the outstanding loan and accrued interests amounted to HK$15,000,000 and HK$2,880,000 respectively. The remaining loan facility available for future use under the first loan agreement amounted to HK$15,000,000.
      On 23 August 2018, the Company and Eastern Wealth entered into another loan agreement pursuant to which Eastern Wealth made available to the Company a new credit facility of HK$9,000,000 (the second loan agreement). The loan bears interest at 10% per annum and shall not be payable unless and until the maturity of the loan under the terms of the second loan agreement. The credit facility was for a period of three years from the date of the second loan agreement.

As of the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the outstanding loan and accrued interests amounted to HK$9,000,000 and HK$412,000 respectively. There was no remaining loan facility available for future use under the second loan agreement.

Based on the cash flow projections of the Group and having taken into account the available financial resources of the Group and the above measures, the Board considered that the Group will be able to obtain sufficient financing to enable it to operate, as well as to meet its liabilities as and when they become due, and the capital expenditure requirements for the upcoming twelve months. Accordingly, the Board believes that it is appropriate to prepare these consolidated financial statements on a going concern.

Should the Group be unable to continue in business as a going concern, adjustments would have to be made to write down the value of assets to their recoverable amounts, to provide for further liabilities which might arise and to reclassify non-current assets and liabilities to current assets and liabilities respectively. The effects of these potential adjustments have not been reflected in these consolidated financial statements.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED HONG KONG FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS

In the current year, the Group has applied the following new and revised HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA.

Amendments to HKAS 19 Amendments to HKFRSs Amendments to HKFRSs

Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions Annual improvements to HKFRSs 2010 - 2012 cycle Annual improvements to HKFRSs 2011 - 2013 cycle

The impacts of the adoption of new and revised HKFRSs are described below:

  1. Amendments to HKAS 19 introduce a relief to reduce the complexity of accounting for certain contributions from employees or third parties under defined benefit plans. When the contributions are eligible for the practical expedient provided by the amendments, a company is allowed to recognise the contributions as a reduction of the service cost in the period in which the related service is rendered, instead of including them in calculating the defined benefit obligation. The amendments do not have an impact on these financial statements as the Group only operated the defined contribution plans for its employees.
  2. Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle and 2011- 2013 Cycle These two cycles of annual improvements contain amendments to nine standards with consequential amendments to other standards. Among them, HKAS 24, Related party disclosures has been amended to expand the definition of a "related party" to include a management entity that provides key management personnel services to the reporting entity, and to require the disclosure of the amounts incurred for obtaining the key management personnel services provided by the management entity. These amendments do not have an impact on the Group's related party disclosures as the Group does not obtain key management personnel services from management entities.
    The application of the amendments to HKFRSs in the current year has had no material impact on the Group's financial performance and positions for the current and prior years and/or on the disclosures set out in these consolidated financial statements.

HKFRS 16 Leases

HKFRS 16, which upon the effective date will supersede HKAS 17 Leases, introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. Specifically, under HKFRS 16, a lessee is required to recognize a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. Accordingly, a lessee liability should recognize depreciation of the right-of-use asset and interest on the lease liability, and also classifies cash payments of the lease liability into a principal portion and an interest portion and presents them in the statement of cash flows.

Also, the right-of-use asset and these lease liability are initially measured on a present value basis. The measurement includes non-cancellable lease payments and also includes payments to be made in optional periods if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend the lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate the lease. This accounting treatment is significantly different from the lessee accounting for leases that are classified as operating leases under the predecessor standard, HKAS 17.

In respect of the lessor accounting, HKFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in HKAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases and to account for these two types of leases differently.

As at 31 December 2015, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of HK$792,000, as disclosed in note

29. A preliminary assessment indicates that these arrangements will meet the definition of a lease under HKFRS 16, and hence the Group will recognise a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability in respect of all the leases.

The directors of the Company anticipate that the application of other new and revised HKFRS will have no material effect on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  1. Statement of compliance
    Except for the matters referred in note 2, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRSs"), which collective term includes all applicable individual Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards ("HKASs") and Interpretations issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA"), accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. The consolidated financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.
    The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. A summary of significant accounting policies adopted by the Group is set out below:
  2. Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved where the Company:

  • has power over the investee;
  • is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
  • has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

Consideration of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date when the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Profit or loss and each item of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the Group.

All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income and expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 31 December 2015

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Basis of consolidation (Continued)
    Changes in the Group's ownership interests in existing subsidiaries
    When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non-controlling interests. All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred to another category of equity as specified/permitted by applicable HKFRSs). The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for subsequent accounting under HKAS 39, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture.
  2. Goodwill
    Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment losses, if any.
    For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the cash-generating units (or groups of cash- generating units), that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
    A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently whenever there is indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit on a pro-rata basis based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
    On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.
  3. Investments in an associate and a joint venture

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control of joint control over those policies.

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

The result and assets and liabilities of an associate and a joint venture are incorporated in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate or joint venture. When the Group's share of loss of an associate or a joint venture exceeds the Group's interest in that associate or joint venture (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group's net investment in the associate or joint venture), the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal and constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Investments in an associate and a joint venture (Continued)
    An investment in an associate or a joint venture is accounted for using the equity method from the date on which the investee becomes an associate or a joint venture.
    The requirements of HKAS 39 are applied to determine whether it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with respect to the Group's investment in an associate or a joint venture. When necessary, the entire carrying amount of the investment is tested for impairment in accordance with HKAS 36 Impairment of Assets as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell) with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognised form part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognised in accordance with HKAS 36 to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.
  2. Revenue recognition
    Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, and represents amounts receivable for goods sold and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts and sales related taxes.
    Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the goods are delivered and titles have passed, at which time all the following conditions are satisfied:
    • the Group has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;
    • the Group retain neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
    • the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
    • it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group; and
    • the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Service income is recognised when the relevant services are provided.

Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset's net carrying amount on initial recognition.

  1. Property, plant and equipment
    Property, plant and equipment including buildings held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes (other than properties under construction as described below) are stated in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost less subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses, if any.
    Properties in the course of construction for production, supply or administrative purposes are carried at cost, less any recognized impairment loss. Costs include professional fees and, for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Group's accounting policy. Such properties are classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Property, plant and equipment (Continued)
    Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets (other than properties under construction) less their residual values over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of the reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
    An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.
  2. Leasing
    Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
  3. The Group as lessee
    Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.
  4. Leasehold land for own use

Interest in leasehold land that is accounted for as an operating lease is presented as "prepaid lease payments" in the consolidated statement of financial position and is amortised over the lease term on a straight-line basis.

  1. Foreign currencies
    In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of that entity (foreign currencies) are recorded in the respective functional currency (i.e. the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates) at the rates of exchanges prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the retranslation of monetary items, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

For the purposes of presenting the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group are translated into the presentation currency of the Group (i.e. Hong Kong dollars) using exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Income and expenses items are translated at the average exchange rates for the year, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during the period, in which case, the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under the heading of translation reserve (attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Foreign currencies (Continued)
    On derecognition of a group entity which is a foreign operation, exchange differences accumulated in the translation reserve arising from translating the assets and liabilities of the relevant entity into the presentation currency of the Group, will be transferred directly to accumulated profits.
    Goodwill and fair value adjustments on identifiable assets acquired arising on an acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of that subsidiary and retranslated into the presentation currency at the rate of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Exchange differences arising are recognised in equity under the heading of translation reserve.
  2. Borrowing costs
    Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

  1. Government grants
    Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received.
    Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Specifically, government grants whose primary condition is that the Group should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognised as a deduction from the carrying amount of the relevant asset in the consolidated statement of financial position and transferred to profit or loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful lives of the related assets.
    Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs to be incurred are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they become receivable.
  2. Retirement benefits costs
    Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans, government-managed retirement benefit schemes and the Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme are recognised as expenses when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.
  3. Taxation
    Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
    The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from "profit before tax" as reported in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible.
    The Group's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Taxation (Continued)
    Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences arise from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
    Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and an associate, and interest in a joint venture, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
    The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of the reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss.

  1. Intangible assets
    Intangible assets acquired separately
    Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Intangible assets (Continued)
    Internally-generated intangible assets - research and development expenditure Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
    An internally-generated intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and only if, all of the following have been demonstrated:
    • the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
    • the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
    • the ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
    • how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
    • the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and
    • the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

The amount initially recognised for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Where no internally-generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred.

Subsequent to initial recognition, internally-generated intangible assets are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately.

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognised separately from goodwill are initially recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost).

Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately.

Derecognition of intangible assets

An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains and losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

  1. Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs of inventories are determined on a first-in-first-out basis. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Financial instruments
    Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
    Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
    Financial assets
    Financial assets are classified into loans and receivables. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
    Effective interest method
    The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
    Interest income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments. Loans and receivables
    Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables (including trade and other receivables, pledged bank deposits, amount due from a director, amounts due from related parties, amounts due from subsidiaries of a joint venture, loan receivable and bank balances and cash) are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
    Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables where the recognition of interest would be immaterial.
    Impairment of financial assets
    Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of the reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the financial assets have been affected.

For the year ended 31 December 2015

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Financial instruments (Continued) Financial assets (Continued) Impairment of financial assets (Continued) Objective evidence of impairment could include:
    • significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or
    • breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or
    • it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation; or
    • the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Group's past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the credit period of 270 days, observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment losses was recognised, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments

Debt and equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities (including trade and other payables, amounts due to related companies/a subsidiary of a joint venture and bank borrowings) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

  1. Financial instruments (Continued)
    Financial liabilities and equity instruments (Continued) Effective interest method
    The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
    Interest expense is recognised on an effective interest basis.
    Derecognition
    The Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity.
    On the derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss.
    The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group's obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.
  2. Available-for-salefinancial assets
    Investments in securities which do not fall into securities held for trading and held-to-maturity securities are classified as available-for-sale financial assets. At the end of each reporting period, the fair value is remeasured with any resultant gain or loss being recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated separately in equity in the fair value reserve. As an exception to this, investments in equity securities that do not have a quoted price in an active market for an identical instrument and whose fair value cannot otherwise be reliably measured are recognized in the statement of financial position at cost less impairment losses.
  3. Share-basedpayment arrangements Share-based payment transactions of the Company
    For grants of share options that are conditional upon satisfying specified vesting conditions, the fair value of services received is determined by reference to the fair value of share options granted at the date of grant and is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase in equity (share options reserve).
    At the end of the reporting period, the Group revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to ultimately vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to share options reserve.
    When the share options are exercised, the amount previously recognised in share options reserve will be transferred to share premium. When the share options are forfeited after the vesting date or are still not exercised at the expiry date, the amount previously recognised in share options reserve will be transferred to accumulated profits.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

  1. Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill (see the accounting policy in respect of goodwill above)

At the end of the reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets with finite useful lives to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell 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 for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or a cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or a cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately in profit or loss.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the application of the Group's accounting policies, which are described in note 4, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. 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.

  1. Critical judgements in applying accounting policies
    In the process of applying the accounting policies, the directors have made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements.
    Going concern basis
    As mentioned in note 2(g) to the consolidated financial statements, the Board is satisfied that the Group will be able to meet its financial obligations in full as and when they fall due in the foreseeable future. As the Board is confident that the Group will be able to continue in operational existence in the foreseeable future, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. If the going concern basis is not appropriate, adjustments would have to be made to restate the values of assets to their recoverable amounts, to provide for further liabilities which might arise and to reclassify non-current assets and liabilities as current assets and liabilities respectively. Such adjustments might have a significant consequential effect on the loss for the year and net assets of the Group as at 31 December 2015.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

(Continued)

  1. Key sources of estimation uncertainty
    The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets within the next financial year are as follows:
    Useful life and impairment of intangible assets - technical know-how
    Intangible assets - technical know-how is amortised over their useful economic lives. The assessment of estimated useful lives is a matter of judgment based on the experience of the Group, taking into account factors such as the ability to legally renew the technical know-how, technological progress and changes in market demand. Useful lives are periodically reviewed for continued appropriateness. Due to long lives of assets, changes to the estimates used can result in variations in their carrying value in the period in which the change takes place. Determining whether the intangible assets are impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of respective cash-generating units to which those intangible assets belong. The value in use calculation requires the Group to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating units and suitable discount rates in order to calculate the present value.
    At 31 December 2015, the carrying amount of technical know-how was HK$12,295,000 (2014: HK$16,934,000), net of
    accumulated amortisation and impairment loss of HK$277,683,000 (2014: HK$286,665,000). Details of the intangible assets are set out in note 17.
    Estimated impairment of trade and other receivables

When there is objective evidence of impairment loss, the Group takes into consideration the estimation of future cash flows. The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

At 31 December 2015, the carrying amount of trade receivables was HK$18,513,000 (2014:HK$15,527,000) net of allowance for doubtful debts of HK$422,000 (2014: HK$322,000). Details are set out in note 21.

Allowance for slow-moving inventories

Allowance for slow-moving inventories is made based on the ageing and estimated net realisable value of inventories. The assessment of the allowance amount involves judgement and estimates. Where the actual outcome in future is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of inventories and allowance charge/write-back in the period in which such estimate has been changed. Allowance for slow-moving inventories of HK$332,000 (2014: HK$106,000) was made as at 31 December 2015.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

(Continued)

  1. Key sources of estimation uncertainty (Continued)
    Income tax and deferred taxation
    The Group estimates its income tax provision in accordance with the prevailing tax rules and regulations, taking into account any special approvals obtained from relevant tax authorities and any preferential tax treatment to which it is entitled in each location or jurisdiction in which the Group operates. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
    The Group believes it has recorded adequate current tax provision based on the prevailing tax rules and regulations and its current best estimates and assumptions. In the event that future tax rules and regulations or related circumstances change, adjustments to current taxation may be necessary which would impact the Group's financial performance or financial position. As at 31 December 2015, the carrying amount of income tax payable was HK$1,487,000 (2014: HK$358,000).
    Deferred income tax liabilities relating to certain temporary differences are recognised as the Board considers it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such differences will impact the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and tax expenses in the periods in which such estimate is changed. As at 31 December 2015, the carrying amount of deferred tax liabilities amounted to HK$4,298,000 (2014: HK$5,257,000).

6. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to shareholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Group's overall strategy remains unchanged from prior year.

The capital structure of the Group consists of net debt, which includes borrowings net of cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to owners of the Company, comprising issued share capital, various reserves and accumulated losses.

The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

Details of these financial instruments are disclosed in the respective notes. The risks associated with these financial instruments include market risk (currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. Management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.
    Market risk
    1. Currency risk
      The Group mainly operates in the PRC, and did not have significant sales or purchases denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the relevant group entities. However, the Group has certain bank balances that are denominated in Hong Kong dollar ("HK dollar") and United States dollar ("US dollar"). As a result, the Group is exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates of US dollar and HK dollar against Renminbi ("RMB"). The Group did not enter into any derivative contracts nor did it have a foreign currency hedging policy aimed at minimising exchange rate risks during the year. However, the management closely monitors foreign exchange exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arises.

    The Group is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to its variable-rate bank balances (see note 22 for details of bank balances). It is the Group's policy to keep its bank balances at floating rate of interests so as to minimise the fair value interest rate risk. As at 31 December 2015 and 2014, there was no significant interest rate risk.

7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

  1. Financial risk management objectives and policies (Continued)

Credit risk

As at 31 December 2015, the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statement of financial position.

In order to minimise the credit risk, the management of the Group has delegated a team responsible for determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the Directors consider that the Group's credit risk is significantly reduced.

The Group has concentration of credit risk as 20% (2014: 14%) and 52% (2014: 50%) of the total trade receivables was due from the Group's largest customer and the five largest customers, respectively.

The Group's concentration of credit risk by geographical locations of customers are mainly in the PRC, which accounted for all the trade receivables as at 31 December 2014 and 2015.

The credit risk on bank balances is limited because the counterparties are reputable banks in the PRC.

Other than the concentration of credit risk on trade receivables, loan receivable and liquid funds which are deposited with several banks with good reputation, the Group does not have any other significant concentration of credit risk.

Liquidity risk

In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group's operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The management also monitors the utilisation of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.

The following table details the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The maturity dates for other non-derivative financial liabilities are based on the agreed repayment dates.

The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent the interest flows are at floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from the interest rate at the end of the reporting period.

  1. Fair value

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:

  • the fair value of financial assets with standard terms and conditions and traded in active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market bid prices; and
  • the fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities is determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.

The Board considers that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the consolidated financial statements approximate to their fair values.

Sales from health care division

The sales from health care division mainly represented the sales of HPV detection products by a subsidiary namely Genetel Pharmaceuticals (Shenzhen) Company Limited ("Genetel Shenzhen") to hospitals and other customers (the "End Users"). However, Genetel Shenzhen did not enter into any sales contracts with the End Users. Genetel Shenzhen only entered into agreements (the "Sales Agreements") with distributors pursuant to which Genetel Shenzhen sold goods to the distributors. Under the Sales Agreements, Genetel Shenzhen shall deliver goods to the End Users upon receiving payments from the distributors (the "Payments") and issue sales invoices for the distributors to the End Users under the instructions from the distributors. The sales invoices issued by Genetel Shenzhen to the End Users were to be in amounts specified by the distributors without the Group having a price negotiating right. The selling prices stated in the sales invoices were higher than the selling prices stated in the Sales Agreements with the distributors.

REVENUE (Continued)

Under another agreement with the distributors, the distributors were appointed to perform technical and ancillary services to the

End Users. Upon receiving of settlements of trade receivables from the End Users, Genetel Shenzhen was required to pay the

distributors the technical service fees (note 11) and refund the Payments (classified

as receipts in advance in note 23(b)) to the

distributors net of appropriate value added tax. No acknowledgement of goods receipt by the End Users were kept by Genetel

Shenzhen.

Notwithstanding the fact that no written agreements for sales were entered into between Genetel Shenzhen and the End

Users, the Board considered that the End Users were customers of Genetel Shenzhen instead of the distributors, therefore, the

amounts as stated in sales invoices issued for the End Users were recognised as revenue by Genetel Shenzhen.

Note:

Out of this interest income, HK$1,238,000 was impaired in 2014 as disclosed in note 20 and the balance of HK$3,510,000 related to the receivable brought forward from 2013. The Board was unable to confirm if the interest income of HK$3,510,000 was actually received by SHMY Biochip.
  2. The amount represented the director's remuneration of HK$431,000 payable to Mr. Chien Hoe Yong, Henry ("Mr. Chien") and a balance of HK$3,047,000 due to Mr. Chien as recorded in the books of the Company. The Board understood that there were housing allowances paid to Mr. Chien in previous years, however, Mr. Chien was unable to provide the supporting documents for the housing expenses to the Group. Therefore, the Group did not pay the director's remuneration for 2014 to Mr. Chien. The Board noted that there was an amount of HK$3,047,000 credited to the current account with Mr. Chien without any supporting documents during the year ended 31 December 2014. On 18 September 2014, Mr. Chien took legal actions against the Company for the payment of HK$3,866,000 as director's fee, housing allowance and reimbursements of expenses and RMB30,000,000 (equivalent to HK$37,481,000) as special bonus due to him totalling HK$41,347,000 plus interest, the details of which were disclosed in note 37(d) to the consolidated financial statements. Given that the action was dismissed with no order as to costs, the Board write back the balance due to Mr. Chien as other income during the year ended 31 December 2014.

Note:

  1. The Board is of the opinion that some technical know-how with a carrying amount of HK$23,820,000 are not expected to be used in the foreseeable future. Therefore, the technical know-how was impaired during the year ended 31 December 2014.
  2. The balance of technical know-how of HK$12,295,000 (2014: HK$16,934,000) as at 31 December 2015 represented the technical know-how acquired through the acquisition of a subsidiary, Genetel Shenzhen during the year ended 31 December 2009. However, the Board was unable to locate the purchase agreements nor the valuation reports at the date of the acquisition or other documents to support the costs and the carrying amount of these technical know-how. In this connection, the Board was unable to ascertain the accuracy of the costs and the carrying amount of the intangible assets as at 31 December 2015 and 2014 nor the amortisation or impairment loss charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the years ended 31 December 2015 and 2014.
    The technical know-how represents the costs of design, development, production, sales and distributions of certain HPV detection products registered for use in the PRC. The Group has registered various technologies developed under the technical know-how with the State Intellectual Property Office of the PRC for patents. Each technology so registered would be protected for a period of 20 years starting from the day of registration.
    The Board carried out an impairment assessment of the cash generating unit of the manufacture and trading of HPV detection products and related equipment. In preparing the cash flow projections, the Board used certain bases and assumptions and the historical performance of Genetel Shenzhen. The recoverable amount of the cash generating unit has been determined by the Board based on value in use calculations. As a result of the assessment, no impairment loss nor reversal of impairment loss was made for the year ended 31 December 2015.

Note: (Continued)

  1. (Continued)
    During the year ended 31 December 2011, two medical device licenses had been obtained from the State Food and Drug Administration for products developed under the technical know-how. Both medical device licenses have a legal life of 4 years and had expired in the year 2015. The Board is of the opinion that the Group would be able to renew the medical device licenses continuously at minimal costs and hence extending the legal life of the medical device licenses. The Board is of the opinion that the technical know-how is expected to be available for use by the Group over a useful life of 15 years from the date of acquisition and hence it is amortised on a straight-line basis over 15 years.

As set out in note 2(e) to the consolidated financial statements, the Board was unable to direct the relevants activities of the Shanghai Subsidiaries which significantly affected the Shanghai Subsidiaries' returns and could not obtain any accounting records from their management, the Board was of the opinion that the Group had lost control over the Shanghai Subsidiaries. The Shanghai Subsidiaries had been derecognised from these consolidated financial statements of the Group as from 1 January 2014. The Shanghai Subsidiaries were therefore recognised by the Group as available-for-sale investments with a carrying value of HK$1 as the Board considered that there was no expectation of recovery from the Shanghai Subsidiaries. A list of the subsidiaries derecognised from these consolidated financial statements is set out in note 32.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 31 December 2015

20. LOAN RECEIVABLE (Continued)

Pursuant to an undated loan agreement entered into between 牟清, an individual in the PRC (the "Borrower") and a subsidiary of the Company namely Sita Financial Consultant Limited ("Sita Financial"), Sita Financial advanced a loan of HK$118,000,000 to the Borrower for a period of two years. The Borrower is a shareholder of an associate of the Group. The loan was bearing interest at 6% per annum, and repayable in June 2013. The loan was secured by the shares held by the Borrower in the associate. On 20 June 2013, a supplementary agreement was entered into with the Borrower under which the loan receivable continued to bear interest at 6% per annum and the maturity date of the loan receivable was extended to 29 June 2014. According to the available books and records of the Group, the loan of HK$118,000,000 was received through the current account with SHMY Biochip during the year ended 31 December 2014. However the Board was unable to gain access to the books and records of SHMY Biochip, the Board was unable to confirm if the loan of HK$118,000,000 and the related loan interest of HK$3,510,000 was actually received by SHMY Biochip.

On 14 November 2014, Sita Financial entered into another loan agreement with the Borrower. Pursuant to the loan agreement, Sita Financial lent a loan of RMB66,000,000 (equivalent to HK$82,500,000) to the Borrower. The loan was bearing interest at 1% per month and repayable on 16 May 2015. In addition, the loan agreement stipulated that the loan was secured by the Borrower's 21% shareholding interest in the Company. However, the Board noted that there was only one director's signature on the board minutes approving the loan and the security as stated on the board minutes was the Borrower's 21% shareholding interest in New Scen Coast, an associate of the Group held by the Borrower instead of the 21% shareholding interest in the Company as stated in the loan agreement. In addition, based on the available information, the Borrower was neither a shareholder of the Company nor a shareholder of the associate of the Group. The Board was unable to verify if the Borrower held 21% shareholding interest in the Company. According to the available accounting records, the loan was made to the Borrower through the current account with SHMY Biochip. Due to the fact that the Board was unable to gain access to the books and records of SHMY Biochip, the Board was unable to verify whether the loan was properly made to the Borrower. The Board was unable to explain the inconsistency between the two documents. Up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, the loan together with the interest receivables remain outstanding. Therefore, full impairment loss totalling HK$83,738,000 on the loan and interest receivables was made as at 31 December 2015 and 2014.

As there has not been a significant change in credit quality, the amounts are still considered recoverable. The Group does not hold any collateral over these balances.

The concentration of credit risk is limited as the customer base is large and unrelated. The Board believes that there is no further credit provision required in excess of the allowance for doubtful debts already provided for in the consolidated financial statements.

  1. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES, DEPOSITS AND PREPAYMENTS (Continued)
    1. (Continued)
      The Board noted that there were trade receivables of RMB228,000 (equivalent to HK$273,000) as at 31 December 2015 (2014: equivalent to HK$285,000) brought forward from 2013 recorded in the books of Genetel Shenzhen which had been outstanding for over several years. There were no subsequent settlements of these long outstanding trade receivables up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements. Together with other irrecoverable trade receivables, a total impairment loss of HK$422,000 (2014: HK$322,000) was made as at 31 December 2015.
      Before accepting a new customer, the Group assesses and understands the potential customer's credit quality and defines its credit limits. Credit limits attributed to each customer are reviewed regularly.
    2. Other receivables
      As at 31 December 2015, there were other receivables of RMB3,008,000 (equivalent to HK$3,590,000) (2014: equivalent to HK$3,759,000) brought forward from 2013 and had been outstanding in the books of Genetel Shenzhen for several years.

Although the Board was unable to locate the relevant supporting documents to substantiate these other receivables and receipts in advance, the Board considered that these long outstanding other receivables and receipts in advance with the same parties can be offset with each other. In this connection, an impairment loss of HK$957,000 on the other receivables after set off of the receipts in advance was charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014.

  1. Equipment deposits received
    According to the Sales Agreements entered into between the distributors and Genetel Shenzhen, Genetel Shenzhen shall provide an equipment to each of the End Users for reading the results of HPV testing. The distributors are required to pay a security deposit to Genetel Shenzhen for using the equipment. Genetel Shenzhen shall refund the security deposits to the distributors upon cessation of business activities with the End Users. The Board considered that the cost of the equipment was a marketing cost and therefore the cost of the equipment was charged to the profit or loss when incurred.
  2. Others
    Year ended 31 December 2015
    The balance of HK$3,850,000 included an amount of RMB3,209,000 (equivalent to HK$3,830,000) due to 香港港龍科 技有限公司 recorded in the books of Genetel Shenzhen.

In addition, according to the available information, there were no company registered in the name of 香港 港龍科技有限公司 either in the PRC or Hong Kong. In this connection, the Board was unable to confirm the existence and nature of the amount of HK$3,830,000 due to 香港港龍科技有限公司.
    Year ended 31 December 2014
    The balance of HK$4,055,000 included an amount of RMB3,209,000 (equivalent to HK$4,010,000) due to 香港港龍科 技有限公司 recorded in the books of Genetel Shenzhen. The Board observed that the amount due to 香港港龍科技有 限公司 was brought forward from previous years. However, there was no sufficient information to confirm the nature of this amount. In addition, according to the available information, there were no company registered in the name of 香港 港龍科技有限公司 either in the PRC or Hong Kong.

  3. Amount due to a former shareholder
    The amount was due to Ming Yuan Investments Group Limited ("MYIG").

(i) As disclosed in note 35 to the consolidated financial statements, the Board was unable to gain access to the books and records of the Shanghai Subsidiaries. Therefore, the income tax payable of HK$26,983,000 relating to the Shanghai Subsidiaries brought forward from 2013 was derecognised from these consolidated financial statements.

(ii) The income tax payable as at 31 December 2015 and 2014 included an income tax payable of RMB802,000 (equivalent to HK$957,000 and HK$1,002,000, respectively as at 31 December 2015 and 2014) made on a marketing fee of RMB3,400,000 in 2014. The Board noted that there was a marketing fee of RMB3,400,000 (equivalent to HK$4,250,000) recorded in the books of Genetel Shenzhen and marketing fee income of the same amount recorded in the books of HD Global, the intermediate holding company of Genetel Shenzhen in Hong Kong for the year ended 31 December 2014. However, the Board noted that there was no marketing services provided by HD Global to Genetel Shenzhen. The Board could not understand the purpose of recording such marketing fee and could not locate appropriate supporting documents to substantiate these accounting entries. In accordance with the PRC tax regulations, deduction of the marketing fee without provision of marketing services is not allowed. However, deduction of the marketing fee was claimed by Genetel Shenzhen for the PRC corporate income tax purpose in the local filing with the PRC tax authority. In addition, no withholding tax was paid in respect of this marketing fee. In this connection, the Board treated the marketing fee as a non-deductible item when determining the provision of income tax for the year ended 31 December 2014. The marketing fee has been eliminated upon preparing these consolidated financial statements.

(iii) As disclosed in note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, certain technical service fees of HK$22,034,000 (2014: HK$14,486,000) for the year ended 31 December 2015 were supported by invoices issued by third parties unrelated to the provision of technical services. In accordance with the PRC tax regulations, the technical services without proper supporting invoices were not deductible for income tax purpose. After consultation with the PRC lawyer and tax consultant, the Board considered that it is appropriate to claim deduction of the technical service fees by Genetel Shenzhen for the PRC corporate income tax purpose in the local filling with the PRC tax authority.

Under the Law of the PRC on Enterprise Income Tax, withholding tax is imposed on dividends declared in respect of profits earned by the PRC subsidiaries from 1 January 2008 onwards. As at 31 December 2015 and 2014, deferred taxation has been provided for in full in respect of undistributed profits retained by the PRC entity.

As disclosed in note 34 to the consolidated financial statements, the Board was unable to gain access to the books and records of the Shanghai Subsidiaries. Therefore, the deferred tax liabilities of the Shanghai Subsidiaries brought forward from 2013 were derecognised from these consolidated financial statements.

In addition, the Board was unable to reconcile the deferred tax liabilities relating to the undistributed profits of the PRC subsidiaries, and therefore, the Board recognised the unreconciled difference of HK$48,041,000 as "write back of unreconciled deferred tax liabilities" to the consolidated statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014.

The payments were approved by the ex-directors of the Company who have left the Company. The Board could not identify the purpose of the payments and could not locate any supporting documentation for verification purpose. Since the cash has been paid out before 31 December 2015, the Board recognised the amount of HK$2,728,000 (2014: HK$1,520,000) as administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

The amount was recorded in the current account with SHMY Biochip in previous years. The Board could not identify the purpose, substance and the nature of the payment made to Mr. Chien. However, the Board considered that the amount due from an ex-director should be separately classified from the current account with SHMY Biochip and therefore a reclassification has been made in the current year. The Board also considered that the amount due from Mr. Chien would not be recoverable, therefore, an impairment loss of HK$1,249,000 on amount due from an ex-director has been made in the year ended 31 December 2014.

Therefore, the Board considered that the amount due from 上海銘源實業 could not be recovered. Therefore, an impairment loss of HK$1,015,000 was made on the amount due from a related company and charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014.

In the opinion of the Board, the Group was unable to obtain the information of these legal cases. Therefore, the details of the legal cases were not disclosed in these consolidated financial statements and the Board was unable to confirm if there was any financial impact of these legal cases on the Group.

36. DERECOGNITION OF INTEREST IN AN ASSOCIATE

In 2013, the Group held 30% equity interest in an associate, namely 天津中新科炬生物制藥有限公司 ("NewScen Coast") in the PRC. The associate was principally engaged in the manufacturing and trading of diagnostic products and related equipment.

    In November 2016, 天津天極 made an appeal claiming that 天津天極 made use of the bills for purchasing of goods from 響緣典當. As the bills were dishonoured, 天津天極 returned the goods to 響緣典當 and therefore 天津天極 obtained the legal right to claim against SHMY Biochip, 天津紅鬃馬 and the Company.

According the judgement made by the Tianjin Second Intermediate People Court in February 2017, the case was passed to the Tianjin First Intermediate People's Court for hearing. On 25 October 2017, the Tianjin First Intermediate People's Court accepted the case. However, 天津天極 did not pay the court fee within 7 days. On 1 December 2017, the Tianjin First Intermediate People's Court made a judgment and considered that 天津天極 had withdrawn the legal action.
