2. Investment properties measured at fair value
The Group uses the fair value model for subsequent measurement of its investment properties. Fair value changes are included in “Gains from changes in fair value” in the income statement. Reasons for the adoption of the fair value model as the accounting policy for subsequent measurement by the Group are as follows:
- (1) The investment properties are located in places where the property markets are active.
The Group’s current investment properties, most of which are commercial properties at developed commercial districts, are primarily located at core districts such as Beijing and Tianjin where the property markets are relatively active. The Group is able to obtain market price and other related information of properties of the same category or similar nature. It is practicable for the Group to adopt the fair value model for subsequent measurement of the investment properties.
- (2) The Group is able to obtain market price and other related information of properties of the same category or similar nature from the property markets, by which the Group makes a reasonable estimation of the fair value of its investment properties.
The Group has engaged a valuer with relevant qualifications to make valuation on the fair value of the investment properties of the Group using the income method and with reference to the prices in the open market. The result of such valuation is used as the fair value of the investment properties of the Group.
Key assumptions and major uncertain factors adopted by the Group for the estimation of the fair value of the investment properties of the Group mainly include: assuming the investment properties are traded in the open market and will continue to be used for their existing purposes; there will be no significant changes in the macro-economic policies of the PRC and the social and economic environment, tax policies, credit interest rates and foreign exchange rates in the places where the investment properties are located; and there is no other force majeure and unforeseeable factor that may have a material impact on the Group’s operation.
During the Reporting Period, the gains arising from changes in fair value of investment properties of the Group decreased by approximately RMB204.4 million year-on-year to RMB525.7 million, accounting for 6.7% of the profits before tax.

DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS ON FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
(1) Industry Pattern and Trend
1. Although macroeconomic risks still exist, the favorable long-term prospects of the Chinese economy remain unchanged.
In 2021, despite there still exist many uncertainties in the epidemic condition and the international environment, the world economic situation was still complicated and severe and the foundation for Chinese economic recovery was still weak, but the favorable longterm fundamentals of Chinese economy remain unchanged. In the coming period, China’s new development pattern which is based on a strong domestic market as the main body and domestic and international dual- circulation and mutual promotion will provide a powerful driving force for the start of the “14th Five-Year Plan”, and continuously release the domestic demand potential of economic growth. Chinese economy will still be in an important period of strategic opportunities as a whole.

2. The building materials industry accelerates digital transformation and the property industry maintains stable and sound development
The year of 2021 is not only the opening year of the “14th Five-Year” plan, but also the year of the intersection and transformation of the two centennial goals. The national economy will stress “stability”. In terms of infrastructure construction, China has launched a series of favorable policy measures to cope with the complex and severe external situation, launched regional strategies to speed up the development and started the “new infrastructure, new urbanization initiatives and major projects” in full swing, which will bring sound support for the building materials industry.
The “14th Five-Year” is an important period for the building materials industry to change its development momentum, change its development pattern, shift its focus to high-end, high value-added, industrial chain development, promote green and low-carbon development, and step into high-quality development in an all-round way. In this period, we need to change from factor-driven and investment-driven to innovation-driven, from extensive development to integrated and balanced development, accelerate the deep adjustment of the industrial pattern, accelerate the solution of a series of fundamental problems such as overcapacity, ecological and environmental protection and accelerate the change from scale growth to quality improvement.
Digital transformation will become the fundamental way and means for the industry to comply with the changes of the times. The Action Plan for Digital Transformation of the Building Materials Industry (2021-2023) points out the specific path and direction for the industry-wide digital transformation. The building materials industry will transform from traditional manufacturing to advanced manufacturing and service-oriented manufacturing, promote fundamental changes in production modes and enterprise forms and integrate the development of industrial chain, value chain and innovation chain. Investment growth in the building materials industry is mainly focused on new materials, energy saving and environmental protection, technological transformation, digital transformation and building materials service industry.
- 61 -
In the national “14th Five-Year” plan, it is clearly proposed to “promote the stability of property market and the sound development of housing consumption” and achieve balanced development of finance, property and real economy. Due to the continuous promotion of regional development and urbanization process, urban renewal and upgrading, demographic structure changes, continuous release of demand for housing improvement and people’s aspiration and pursuit of a better life, the market scale will still be supported; at the same time, the stable policy tone has led to rational market expectations and the marginal effect of stimulating demand to enter the market has weakened. Under the environment of unabated policy control and rising production materials and labor costs, the profit margin crowdingout effect of the project is obvious and the focus of growth of the property industry will shift from the demand side to the supply side, and will enter a new cycle of high-quality, low-profit and stable development. Under the policy keynote of “houses are for living in not for speculative investment”, property will change from scale development to quality improvement. Serving urban revitalization, urban renewal and old urban areas and old factory transformation, etc. will become an important way to expand the development pattern of property.
The above two aspects will play a strong role in supporting and pulling cement demand, and some segments will increase the market demand for green building materials products and new materials. At the same time, new industries and new models will promote and give rise to changes in the industry’s traditional production methods and circulation patterns, bringing greater imagination and impact on the future development of the entire building materials industry.
The COVID-19 epidemic has an extensive and far-reaching impact and economic globalization has encountered a counter-current. However, the long-term positive fundamentals of China’s economy remain unchanged, with a wide market space and strong development resilience. The new development pattern with domestic circulation as the mainstay and mutual reinforcement of domestic and international circulations is accelerating, providing the most reliable support for sustained economic development. The impact of the epidemic has accelerated the digital transformation, giving rise to the vigorous development of new industries and new models. China will give full play to its institutional advantages, coordinate the work of epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, unswervingly implement the new development concept, deepen the structural reform on the supply side, promote high-quality development, complete “six stabilities” and “six guarantees” in an all-rounded way and give full play to the enthusiasm, initiative and creativity of all parties to minimize the impact of the epidemic. We will strive to achieve the annual economic and social development goals and tasks, achieve economic stability, social stability and harmony, and make a good start for the comprehensive construction of a modern socialist country.

(3) Business Plan
2021 is the first year for implementing the“14th Five-year Plan”. It is also a crucial year for the Company to grasp new development opportunities and achieve higher quality development at a new historical starting point. In the context of the China’s efforts to integrate domestic and international development and build a new development pattern, the Board of Directors of the Company will adhere to take development as top priority, focus on the “four centers” of Beijing, and completing “four services” in a satisfactory way. Meanwhile, it will coordinate epidemic prevention and control and economic development, adhere to integrated development, appropriate development, innovative development and high-quality development, ensure the completion of the annual objectives and tasks and achieve a high-level start of the “14th Five-Year” plan.
(4) Possible risks
1. Epidemic prevention and control risks
The epidemic is still far from over and the world economy is in deep recession. With the large-scale vaccination, the situation of epidemic prevention and control in China has improved continuously, but the epidemic situation overseas is still serious. Under the globalization pattern, the risk of epidemic continues to increase with the importation of people and materials and the risk of overseas importation, local sporadic outbreaks and local outbreaks remains relatively high. The hit on China’s economy is highly variable and there is greater pressure to promote economic development under normalized epidemic prevention and control.
Countermeasures: The impact of the epidemic in China is preventable and controllable and the trend of China’s stable economic progress remains unchanged. We will sum up the experience of both epidemic prevention and control and production development, make full use of our own industrial coordination advantage and take advantage of the series of favorable policies issued by the state to lay equal emphasis to both epidemic prevention and control and production and operation. During the epidemic, the international and domestic industry chains will accelerate their adjustment, and a number of new industries, new business forms and new demands will be created. We will seriously study and judge the opportunities and changes, establish a bottom-line mindset, cultivate opportunities in crises, open new situations in changes, and actively cultivate new growth points and new driving forces. Meanwhile, we will actively serve the development of the capital and promote the growth of modern green building materials business. At the same time, we will expand our mind, increase marketing efforts and speed up sales of inventory property projects and improve the capital turnover, to ensure the fulfillment of economic goals for the full year.
- 67 -
2. Policy risk
Guided by the central government’s principle of “houses are for living in not for speculative investment, emphasis on both rent and purchase and city-specific policies”, the property regulation will remain stable; at the same time, the “three red lines” policy of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has been issued one after another, which poses a huge challenge to the financing and management operations of property enterprises. The cement industry’s overcapacity problem is still not fundamentally solved, the policy trend of production capacity replacement and staggered production will be further implemented and tightened. With the publication of the action plan of digital transformation of the building materials industry and the proposal of carbon peak and carbon neutral target, the process of industrial integration and elimination of outdated production capacity will be accelerated.
Countermeasures: We will strengthen the interpretation, analysis and judgment of national macroeconomic policies and respond to the call of national policies. The property business will scientifically study and judge the market and improve the ability to adapt to market pace; improve project operation capabilities, and actively expand online marketing and emerging property business models. Cement enterprises will focus on supply-side structural reform, promote the “three reductions, one lowering and one promotion” campaign, improve quality and efficiency, and enhance regional market control. Moreover, they will continue to strengthen intra-industry cooperation and promote the construction of integrated cement industry chain, supply chain and innovation chain, accelerate the process of digital transformation and upgrading and formulate carbon peak, carbon neutral and carbon emission reduction plans in advance. Meanwhile, the cement enterprises will seize the opportunities brought by the demands for infrastructure construction of “new infrastructure, new urbanization initiatives and major projects” to further increase market shares.
- 68 -
3. Risk of capital operation
In 2020, the overall monetary policy remained stable, and the comprehensive financing costs recorded a steady decrease. However, China’s macro leverage ratio is still on the high side and the risk of local debts and corporate debts is rising. Affected by the epidemic, domestic economic circulation and external trade talks, the manufacturing industry and the property industry will face greater pressure, especially the cash flow pressure of the property industry will increase and the liquidity risk will increase, which brings great challenges to the Company’s financing and liquidity management.
Countermeasures: The Company will innovate financing methods and extensively expand financing channels to raise funds at low cost and ensure the safety and stability of the capital chain of the Company. We will strengthen process control to improve the efficiency of capital turnover of property project and prudently operate property business. We will leverage the advantages of the financial arm and finance lease arm of the Company to optimize the debt structure of the Company, so as to secure the cash flow of the Company as a whole.
4. Market competition risk
The acquisition of Jidong Group and the holding of Tianjin Building Materials boosted the market competitiveness of the Company’s cement business in the major distribution regions to a certain extent, but the production lines in some regions are operating inefficiently or facing the bottleneck of relocation. The staggered production only solves the problem of output in the region and does not solve the problem of overcapacity fundamentally. The production capacity structure is in urgent need of optimization. Some small and mediumsized enterprises do not strictly comply with the staggered production policy, resulting in an imbalance between supply and demand, which further aggravates market competition. In the meantime, due to the unbalanced regional development, the gap between the strong in the south and the weak in the north persists in terms of demand and benefit level. The concentration of the property industry is accelerating, and the trend of “the big gets bigger, the strong gets stronger” is more notable.
Countermeasures: The cement business actively adapts to the market environment of the industry. The Company will seize the strategic opportunities arising during the period of the industry digital transformation, integrate the advantages of resources, scale and location, optimize the industrial layout, expand advanced production capacity; comprehensively improve the level of operation, increase technological innovation, innovation, reduce production costs and enhance market competitiveness; give full play to the leading role of the industry’s “leading enterprises”, proactively strengthen industrial synergy with upstream and downstream enterprises and promote the overall high-quality development of the industry. The property business insists on “fast development with good quality” to improve the capital turnover rate and focuses on core competitiveness to improve the project return rate.
