BUSINESS REVIEW
Overview
Our Group (Greatview Aseptic Packaging Company Limited, our "Company" or "Greatview" and its subsidiaries) provides integrated packaging solution, which includes aseptic packaging materials, filling machines, spare parts, technical services, digital marketing and product traceability solution to the liquid food industry. We are the second largest roll-fed supplier globally and the leading alternative supplier in the PRC. Our aseptic packaging materials are branded under the trademark of "GREATVIEW", which includes "Greatview Brick", "Greatview Pillow", "Greatview Crown", "Greatview
Octagon" and "Greatview Blank-Fed". In March 2019, we completed the acquisition of Qingdao Likang Food Packaging Technology Co., LTD.* (青島利康食品包裝科技有限公司) ("Likang"),
which sells its aseptic packaging materials under the trademark of "Century Pack", including "Century Pack" Aseptic Brick, "Century Pack" Aseptic Pillow, etc. Our aseptic packaging materials are fully compatible with industry-standardroll-fed and blank-fed aseptic carton filling machines, which has benefited most of the dairy and non-carbonated soft drink ("NCSD") producers in the PRC as well as numerous of international customers.
According to the World Economic Situation and Prospects as of Mid-2020 Report released by the United Nations on 13 May 2020, the global economy suffered a severe setback, supply chain was disrupted and demand was suppressed because of the COVID-19 epidemic. The report predicts that world trade will shrink by nearly 15% in 2020. The global economy is expected to shrink by 3.2% in 2020. In this unprecedented period of uncertainty and difficulties, Greatview is committed to ensuring safety of our partners, customers and employees, and be at the forefront of supply with our customers keeping essential food flowing from farms to the tables of individuals and families around the world.

MANAGEMENT
DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
In the PRC, the supply chain disruption resulted from COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control measures has caused a weak consumption during the spring festival, which was usually the golden period of consumption, and liquid milk consumption stagnated since early 2020.
However, since traffic has resumed in March 2020, the market has begun to show signs of a healthy recovery, as consumers have returned to normal life and increased consumption of immune- enhancing foods and beverages, including dairy drinks. As customers increased orders, Greatview achieved steady growth during the first half of 2020, volume and revenue increased by approximately 15.3% and 11.7% respectively. The business in the PRC was resilient during the first half of 2020 despite COVID-19.
In respect of our international business, Greatview has expedited its momentum to expand outside of the PRC. Volume delivered to the international markets has increased by approximately 18.2% and revenue has increased by approximately 21.2%, following success in improving existing customer penetration and the take-up of new customers. Revenue and margin have both increased, following last year's successful market and customer portfolio rationalisation which has resulted in an improvement in average selling price. Product and supply chain costs have both lowered and the utilisation and production efficiency of the production facilities in Germany also continue to improve.
During the first half of 2020, Greatview has also initiated two projects in South East Asia whereby Greatview installed processing equipment and filling machine, as well as the supply of packaging materials, to two leading brands in the region.
Greatview is committed to developing in harmony with society and the environment, always makes every effort to lower down energy consumption and carbon emission. Starting from 2020, Greatview has been purchasing 100% of electrical power for its German factory from renewable, carbon-free sources. In April 2020, Greatview Aseptic Packaging (Shandong) Co. Ltd. was awarded the "Green Standard" in Liaocheng City.

Management Discussion and Analysis
Being dedicated to innovation and independent research and development as always, Greatview has been constantly launching novel and environmentally friendly packaging materials. In order to promote the recycling and circular economy, Greatview has introduced its 330mL "Greatview Eco-packaging", which contains 86% less plastic comparing with equivalent plastic bottle and also use pull-tab to replace the plastic cap to further reduce plastic use. We are also able to provide paper straws to our customers to replace plastic straws as another environmentally sustainable solution.
Our first international order of "Greatview Discovery" has been launched on the market in March 2020. The game-changing packaging allows the customer to implement a "scratch-and-win" campaign on its packaging to fascinate and reward its consumers, and also enables the customers to become the leaders in implementing and exploring innovative ways of marketing methods in its region.
"Greatview Blank-Fed" has achieved stable growth this year, piloting the production with several world-leading dairy and beverage producers. And the new format "Greatview Aseptic Brick 1000mL Square" has also obtained orders from international customers.
Digitalisation plays an increasingly important role in ensuring an efficient management of the Company and the rapid coordination of the organisation. Greatview is actively promoting the construction of digitalisation. The application of production big data provides accurate basic information and scientific analysis tools for product quality improvement and cost reduction. Greatview is stepping forward to lean management and intelligent production by means of digitalisation.
Greatview offers digitalisation services to upstream and downstream partners while implementing internal control, which provides strong information support for improving supply chain efficiency and raw material traceability. Meanwhile, it also helps our customers to expand their own market and strengthen channel control. Through digitalisation services, Greatview has strengthened the strategic partnership with its customers.
Markets and Products
We sold a total of approximately 7.7 billion packs during the first half of 2020 which represents an increase of approximately 16.7% as compared with the same period in 2019. Such increase was primarily due to the growth of sales volume in both the PRC and international market. "Greatview Brick 250mL Base" remained as our top selling product, followed by "Greatview Brick 200mL Slim".
In the Chinese market, although the PRC's demographic dividend is gradually declining, dairy product is still a category with great growth value in the process of the PRC's consumption upgrading. According to a survey conducted in February 2020, Chinese consumers are far from getting into the habit of drinking milk every day. The per capita consumption of dairy product in the PRC is only one third of that of developed countries in Europe and America. At the same time, the regional development of the PRC's dairy consumption is not balanced, but the dairy market still has enough growth potential and broad development space.
In terms of international market, the global dairy industry presents the trend of integration and multi-polarisation. With the rising of serious environmental issues and growing eco-conscious consumers, aseptic paper-based cartons as a more sustainable choice with less plastic use, still has a large development space in the dairy and beverage industry because of its safety, convenience, and suitability for storage and transportation.
In addition, in respect of the international business, the global population shows a trend for net increase, which makes us more optimistic about our future opportunities.
In response to the growing and subdivided market demand of aseptic packaging products, we will strive to step up research and development of new products, introduce various types and sizes of packaging products, expand our product portfolio, and provide eco- friendly solutions so as to widen our customer base, and to improve customer relationship management, hence eventually enhancing our brand image in the global market.

Management Discussion and Analysis
Production Capacity and Utilisation
Our Group has a total annual production capacity of approximately 30.0 billion packs as of 30 June 2020 (30 June 2019: approximately
30.0 billion packs). Approximately 8.1 billion packs were produced for the six months ended 30 June 2020 which represented an utilisation rate of approximately 54.0% (30 June 2019: approximately 44.7%). The increase in the utilisation rate was mainly due to the increase in production volume.
Suppliers and Raw Materials
During the six months ended 30 June 2020, the cost of raw materials remained stable with the support of effective supply chain management.
We continued to select top quality suppliers to maintain the stability of the cost of raw materials.
Business development
Greatview provides aseptic packaging materials and services to leading dairy and NCSD producers across the world.
During the first half of 2020, Greatview's global staffs worked in an orderly manner to overcome difficulties, which guaranteed the interests of customers by ensuring product quality and timely delivery, and received recognition and appreciation from customers.
In March and April 2020, Greatview has received letters of acknowledgement from international customers for being supportive in maintaining supply during the period of unprecedented uncertainty and distress.
In May 2020, Greatview was granted the "Special Contribution Partner" award by China Mengniu Dairy Co., Ltd. and received masks to thank Greatview for its unreserved support and also to commemorate the cooperation and friendship during this epidemic.
As the offline events and exhibitions have been canceled or delayed due to the restrictions caused by epidemic, we found the online opportunity and made the best use of social media operations to connect with customers.
In March 2020, the chief executive officer of the Company, Mr. BI Hua, Jeff has attended the international virtual conference NEXCON held by Staufen Digital Neonex GmbH and delivered a speech entitled "Greatview intelligent manufacturing: Creating a better customer success platform" elaborating Greatview's achievements and production value delivered to dairy enterprises by intelligent manufacturing under the background of Industry 4.0 era. Greatview has accurately captured the new opportunities brought by the development of Industry 4.0 and actively implemented the digitalisation strategy, which makes it a leader in the era of intelligent manufacturing.
In June 2020, Greatview's German factory achieved Grade AA in BRC Global Standard again. In the same month, the representatives of Bayer 04 Leverkusen football club and RKWC GmbH China Business Service visited Greatview's German factory and expressed their expectation of further cooperation.

Management Discussion and Analysis
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Overview
In the first half of 2020, top line was higher whilst bottom line was lower than the corresponding period of 2019 under the influence of COVID-19. We continuously endeavored to optimise the product portfolio and production efficiency, meanwhile we strived to expand market share. We were taking measures to cope with the difficult situation and maintained free cash flow for interim dividend. Our management will continue to capture growth in the aseptic packaging industry as well as pursue potential business development opportunities to further enhance return to shareholders.
Revenue
We primarily derive revenue from the PRC and international sales of aseptic packaging and related services to dairy and NCSD producers. Revenue of our Group increased by approximately 14.7% from approximately RMB1,182.8 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB1,357.2 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020.

With respect to the PRC segment, our revenue increased by approximately RMB93.4 million, or 11.7%, to approximately RMB893.9 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020 from approximately RMB800.5 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019.

Our gross margin increased by approximately 1.9 percentage points to approximately 26.2% for the six months ended 30 June 2020 from approximately 24.3% for the six months ended 30 June 2019.

SHARE OPTION SCHEMES
Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme
On 15 November 2010, the Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme was adopted by resolution of shareholders of the Company. The main purpose of the scheme is, among others, to provide incentives to the employees of the Group with regard to their services and employment. Pursuant to the Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme, for a consideration of HK$1.00, Liwei was granted options ("Pre-IPO Options") to subscribe for up to 22,000,000 Shares, and Liwei will grant (by way of transfer) the Pre-IPO Options to eligible participants who are (i) any individual who is an executive director or employee of our Group or any entity in which any member of our Group holds any equity interest in ("Invested Entity"); (ii) any non-executive director of any member of our Group or Invested Entity; (iii) any customer or supplier of goods or services of any member of our Group or Invested Entity; (iv) any person or entity that provides research, development or technological support to any member of our Group or Invested Entity; (v) any trustee or any company wholly-owned by any trustee, of a trust established for the benefit of the aforesaid persons; and (vi) any such other person as the Board may consider appropriate. Prior approval from the Board is required for Liwei to grant the Pre-IPO Options. Such approval covers key terms of the Pre-IPO Options including eligibility, performance target and share subscription price. There is no minimum period for which an option must be held before it can be exercised under the Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme, provided that in granting options under the Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme, the Board can determine whether there is any minimum holding period before an option granted under the Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme can be exercised.
The exercise price per Share under the Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme is HK$4.30, being the price per Share at the global offering of the Shares in December 2010. No further option was granted under the Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme on or after the day of the listing of the Shares on the Stock Exchange on 9 December 2010 ("Listing Date"). All options granted under the Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme may be exercised during the option period after the Listing Date to the date falling 10 years from the Listing Date subject to conditions imposed by the Board to the respective employees. The total number of Shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of options granted to any grantee (including both exercised and outstanding options) under the Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme, in any 12-month period up to the date of grant shall not exceed 1% of the Shares in issue.
The scheme expired on the Listing Date.

Share Option Scheme
Pursuant to the disclosure requirement under Rule 17.09 of the Listing Rules, particulars in relation to the share option scheme of the Company are shown below.
The Company adopted a share option scheme ("Share Option Scheme") with the purpose of providing an incentive for Qualified Participants (as defined below) to work with commitment towards enhancing the value of the Company and the Shares for the benefit of our shareholders, to compensate such employees for their contribution based on their individual performance and that of the Group and to retain and attract high calibre working partners whose contribution are or may be beneficial to the growth and development of the Group.
There is no minimum period for which an option must be held before it can be exercised under the Share Option Scheme, provide that in granting options under the Share Option Scheme, the Board can determine whether there is any minimum holding period, and whether there is any performance target which must be achieved, before an option granted under the Share Option Scheme can be exercised. The Board will also determine the price per Share upon the exercise of an option according to the terms of the Share Option Scheme, provided that it shall be at the highest of: (i) the closing price of the Shares as stated in the Stock Exchange's daily quotations sheet on the date of grant of the options; (ii) the average of the closing prices of the Shares as stated in the Stock Exchange's daily quotations sheets for the five business days immediately preceding the date of grant of the options; and (iii) the nominal value of the Shares on the date of grant of the options.
The Board may from time to time grant options to (i) any executive Director, or employee (whether full time or part time) of our Company, any member of our Group or any entity in which any member of our Group holds an equity interest; (ii) any non-executive Director (including independent non-executive Directors), any non-executive director of any member of our Group or any Invested Entity; and (iii) any such other person as the Board may consider appropriate (collectively "Qualified Participants").
The Share Option Scheme shall be valid and effective for a period of ten years commencing on 15 November 2010. The amount payable by each grantee of options to the Company on acceptance of the offer for the grant of options is HK$1.00. An option may be exercised at any time during a period which shall not exceed ten years from the date of grant subject to the provisions of early termination under the Share Option Scheme.
The Company shall be entitled to issue options, provided that the total number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all outstanding options to be granted under the Share Option Scheme and any other share option scheme of the Company does not exceed 10% of the Shares in issue at the Listing Date, and therefore is currently capped at 133,360,000 Shares. The Company may at any time refresh such limit, subject to compliance with the Listing Rules, provided that the total number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all outstanding options granted and yet to be exercised under the Share Option Scheme and any other share option scheme of the Company does not exceed 30% of the Shares in issue from time to time. The total number of Shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of options granted to any grantee (including both exercised and outstanding options) under the Share Option Scheme, in any 12-month period up to the date of grant shall not exceed 1% of the Shares in issue.
No option had been granted pursuant to the Share Option Scheme prior to the date ended 30 June 2020. No option had been cancelled or lapsed during the six months ended 30 June 2020.

The accounting policies used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the financial statements contained in the 2019 annual report except for the adoption of the new standards, amendments or interpretations issued by the IASB which are mandatory for the annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2020. The adoption of these standards, amendments or interpretations has no material effect on the Group's financial position or results of operations. The Group has not early adopted the new standards, amendments or interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective. The directors of the Company (the "Directors") anticipate that the application of these standards, amendments or interpretations will have no material impact on the results and financial position of the Group.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
2.3 Fair value estimation
To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Group classifies its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standards. An explanation of each level follows as follows:
- The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and equity securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the groups is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.
- The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
- If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are wealth management products.
The following table presents the Group's financial assets that are measured at fair value at 30 June 2020:
Recurring fair value measurements | ||||
At 30 June 2020 | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total |

- Wealth management products | - | - | 91,231 | 91,231 |
Total assets | - | - | 91,231 | 91,231 |
The Group has a team that manages the valuation of level 3 instruments for financial reporting purposes. The team manages the valuation exercise of investments on a case by case basis. At least once every year, the team would use valuation techniques to determine the fair value of the Group's level 3 instruments. External valuation experts will be involved when necessary.
