The data under the items of sales revenue and sales costs from the display terminal products operation were those of the period from January to November 2005 of Beijing Orient Top Victory Electronics Co., Ltd, which used to be the Company’s subsidiary and had not been included in the consolidation scope since December 2005.

Sales revenue and sales costs from the display devices – Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal had increased by large margins compared with the same period of the last year, mainly because the controlling subsidiary of the Company Beijing BOE Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd (BOEOT) had launched its TFT-LCD 5G production line into mass production in May 2005. The gross profit ratio had decreased by a large margin compared with the same period of the last year, and explanations had been given on the reasons in “II Analyses on the main operations and business of the Company”.

II. Analyses on the main operations and business of the Company

(I) Analyses on the profitability of the main operations

In the report period, the main operations of the Company remained unchanged, while the profitability of the main operations had decreased by a large margin compared with the same period of the last year and so did the net profit of the Company. Reasons for the year-on-year large-margin decrease of the net profit of the Company included: ① Due to low price in the TFT-LCD market as well as the adjustment to product structure, the South Korean subsidiary BOE Hydis Technology Co., Ltd influenced the consolidated financial statements of the Company by RMB –1,144,860,000; ② Since the TFT-LCD 5G production line of BOEOT were at its inception and the market price was low, this company influenced the consolidated financial statements of the Company by RMB -394,590,000; ③ The affiliated company Hyundai LCD Inc. suffered operation difficulties and the net profit of Beijing Matsushita Color CRT Co., Ltd decreased, which had led to the large-margin decrease of the Company’s investment yield compared with the same period of the last year.

1. The price of the Company’s main product LCD panel had decreased by a large margin, but the price of raw materials decreased slowly.

Due to the influence of the cyclicity of the LCD industry (known as “LCD Cycle”), the price of LCD panel started to decrease by large margins in the second half of 2004 and the trend lasts till now. The TFT-LCD industry was at its valley period. In the meantime, the price of raw materials decreased slowly.. Take 17” product, the current main product of the Company, as an example. The price of each unit of 17” product was about USD 280 in June 2004, and then it decreased to approximately USD 150 in 2005, a margin close to 47%. Also, the downslide margin of raw material prices had been far behind that of the TFT-LCD prices. There had been great fluctuations in the business performance and even losses in most of the TFT-LCD manufacturers worldwide, including BOE.

2. The scale of the Company’s TFT-LCD production was small, hence no obvious advantages

in scale.

In May 2005, the TFT-LCD 5G production line of the Company launched mass production and full production was achieved in the 3[rd] quarter of 2005, thereby increased the overall production capacity scale by a large margin compared with that of 2004. However, the overall scale of the Company was still smaller than the global major panel manufacturers, and the bargaining power of the Company in raw material purchase was lower, too. Apart from these, small scale had resulted in high average fixed cost of each unit of product.

As the Beijing TFT-LCD 5G production line launched into production, the South Korean subsidiary BOE Hydis Technology Co., Ltd began focusing on the production of mobile and professional display products, such as the small-size panels for portable computers, cell phones and medical equipments, etc. In the report period, BOE Hydis started to adjust its product structure. Although the output of mobile and professional display products increase gradually, it had not formed large scale yet. To satisfy the demands from original customers, the 17” products still took up over 40 percent in BOE Hydis, sinceinfluenced by the market price fluctuation, therefore BOE Hydis suffered some losses during operation.

  1. The localized supplying for TFT-LCD industry was poor.

23

As an emerging industry domestically, the TFT-LCD had low supplying ratio. Since the beginning of the construction of the TFT-LCD 5G production line in Beijing, the Company had started to carry out the project of localized supplying of raw materials. After two years’ efforts, more than 10 overseas enterprises providing raw materials had settled down in the BOE Beijing Display Technology Park. However, the localized supply of the key raw materials still had not been achieved, and the key raw materials all depended on import, resulting in production costs higher than the average level among foreign enterprises of the same business:

4. R&D expenses had increased by large margins.

To ensure the success of the Beijing TFT-LCD 5G production line, the Company had done a lot preparation in R&D and trial production in the initial period. Apart from this, to meet the market demands and step up the adjustments to product structure, the Company had expanded its R&D investment in Wide Screen and LCD TVs. Due to the cyclicity of product development, corresponding rewards would not show up enough in the same period of the occurrence of the R&D expenses.

5. The financial expenses had increased by large margins.

Due to small capital scale, the Company had to shoulder heavy interest burden from large amount of liabilities for the construction of Beijing TFT-LCD 5G production line. And the financial expenses in the report period reached as high as RMB 665,556,000.

6. The investment yield had decreased.

Influenced by the competition from TFT-LCD products in the cell phone market, the price of CSTN product had dropped, leading to the difficulties in operation and liability repayment by the South Korean Hyundai LCD Inc., an affiliated company of the Company and the its minus net assets. The Company had reduced the book Value of long-term equity investment for the South Korean Hyundai LCD Inc. according to the equity of this company held by the Company. Apart from this, the net profit of the Company’s affiliated company Beijing Matsushita Color CRT Co., Ltd had decreased because of the stagnant TV market, and the investment yield of the Company decreased correspondingly.

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2005 (Expressed in Renminbi)

1 Background of the Company

BOE Technology Group Company Limited (the “Company”) was founded on 9 April 1993 in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) as a joint stock limited company as part of the restructuring of Beijing Electronic Tube Factory (“BETF”). On the same date, the relevant business undertakings of BETF together with the related assets and liabilities were taken over by the Company. The Company and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the Group.

The parent company of the Group is Beijing Orient Investment and Development Company Limited (“BOID”), which is a state-owned enterprise registered in Beijing, the PRC.

The Group manufactures and sells electronic products, invests in enterprises engaged in the manufacture of electronic products and provides property management services to properties it owns.

The Company has its primary listing on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange issuing its first B shares on 10 June 1997, with further offerings of A shares on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 12 January 2001 and B shares on 16 January 2004 respectively.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies

(a) Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) promulgated by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). IFRSs include all applicable individual IFRS, International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) and related interpretations.

A summary of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparations of the financial statements is set out below.

The Company also prepares a set of financial statements which complies with the PRC Accounting Rules and Regulations (“PRC GAAP”). A reconciliation of the Group’s results for the year and the equity attributable to equity shareholders of the Company under IFRSs and the PRC GAAP is presented at the supplementary financial information on pages 69 to 71.

The IASB has issued a number of new and revised IFRS which are effective or available for early adoption for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2005. Information on the changes in accounting policies resulting from initial application of these new and revised IFRSs for the current and prior accounting periods reflected in these financial statements is provided in note 3.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(b) Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2005 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries. The financial statements are presented in Renminbi (“RMB”), rounded to the nearest thousand. The measurement basis used in the preparation of the financial statements is historical cost, except for the measurement at fair value of financial instruments in accordance with IAS39 (revised 2004), Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement .

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factor that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Judgments made by management in the application of IFRSs that have significant effect on the financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in note 40.

Notwithstanding that the Group had accumulated losses and net current liabilities as at 31 December 2005 of RMB461,183,000 and RMB239,837,000 respectively, the management are of the opinion that the Group has the ability to continue as a going concern as they believe that continuous support will be obtained from the banks. The current liabilities of the Group comprise mainly of short term bank and other loans. Up to 31 March 2006, the Group has successfully renewed RMB590,000,000 matured short term loan and obtained a new short term loan facility of RMB80,000,000. In addition, on 18 April 2006, the board of directors has approved a private placement of 1,500 million A shares to certain specified persons. The Group is currently negotiating with the banks for the arrangement of long term loan financing to improve the debt maturity profile of the Group. Accordingly, the management considers it is appropriate that the financial statements of the Group should be prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments that would be required should the Group fail to continue as a going concern.

(c) Basis of consolidation

  • (i) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that presently are exercisable or convertible are taken into account. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date of that control ceases.

10

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(c) Basis of consolidation (continued)

(i) Subsidiaries (continued)

Minority interests at the balance sheet date, being the portion of the net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests that are not owned by the Company, whether directly or indirectly, are presented in the consolidated balance sheet and statement of changes in equity within equity, separately from equity attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company.

Minority interests in the results of the Group are presented on the face of the consolidated income statement as an allocation of the total profit or loss for the year between minority interests and the equity shareholders of the Company.

Where losses applicable to the minority exceed the minority’s interest in the equity of a subsidiary, the excess, and any further losses applicable to the minority, are charged against the Group’s interest except to the extent that the minority has a binding obligation to, and is able to, make additional investment to cover the losses. If the subsidiary subsequently reports profits, the Group’s interest is allocated all such profits until the minority’s share of losses previously absorbed by the Group has been recovered.

(ii) Associates

Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies. The consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the total recognised gains and losses of associates on an equity accounted basis, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases. When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an associate, the Group’s carrying amount is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of an associate.

(iii) Jointly controlled entities

Jointly controlled entities are those entities over whose activities the Group has joint control, established by contractual agreement. The consolidated financial statements include the Group’s proportionate share of the entities’ assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses with items of a similar nature on a line by line basis, from the date that joint control commences until the date that joint control ceases.

(iv) Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intragroup balances and any unrealised gains and losses or income and expenses arising from intragroup transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associates and jointly controlled entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the entity. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

11

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

  • (d) Foreign currency

  • (i) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated to RMB at the foreign exchange rate ruling at that date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the income statement, except those eligible for capitalisation as construction in progress (see note 2 (i) ).

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are stated at fair value are translated to RMB at foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates the fair value was determined.

(ii) Financial statements of foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on consolidation, are translated to RMB at foreign exchange rates ruling at the balance sheet date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated to RMB at rates approximating to the foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange differences arising on retranslation are recognised directly as a separate component of equity.

On disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognised in equity which relate to that foreign operation is included in the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal.

  • (e) Property, plant and equipment

(i) Owned assets

Items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation (see below) and impairment losses (see note 2( n )) The cost of an asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to working condition and location for its intended use.

(ii) Subsequent costs

The Group recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other costs are recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred.

(iii) Disposal

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

12

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

  • (e) Property, plant and equipment (continued)

  • (iv) Depreciation

Depreciation is charged to income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment, after taking into account its estimated residual value. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Estimated residual
value as a
Years percentage of costs
Buildings 20 to 40 years 3%-10%
Plant, machinery and equipment 2 to 15 years 3%-10%
Motor vehicles 2 to 10 years 0%-10%

Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost of the item is allocated on a reasonable basis between the parts and each part is depreciated separately. Both the useful life of an asset and its residual value, if any, are reviewed annually.

  • (f) Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured. The gain or loss on remeasurements to fair value is charged immediately to the income statement.

(g) Intangible assets

(i) Goodwill

All business combinations are accounted for by applying the purchase method. Goodwill represents amounts arising on acquisition of subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities. It represents the difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired.

Goodwill is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units and is tested annually for impairment (see note 2( n )). In respect of associates, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment in the associate.

Any excess of the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent assets and contingent liabilities over the cost of a business combination or an investment in an associate or a jointly controlled entity is recognised immediately in the income statement.

On disposal of a cash generating unit, an associate or a jointly controlled entity during the year, any attributable amount of purchased goodwill is included in the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal.

13

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

  • (g) Intangible assets (continued)

  • (ii) Research and development

Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred. Expenditure on development activities, whereby research findings are applied to a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes, is capitalised if the product or process is technically and commercially feasible and the Group has sufficient resources to complete development. The expenditure capitalised includes the cost of materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Other development expenditure is recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred. Capitalised development expenditure is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation (see below) and impairment losses (see note 2( n )).

(iii) Other intangible assets

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation (see below) and impairment losses (see note 2 ( n )).

(iv) Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure on capitalised intangible assets is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred.

(v) Amortisation

Amortisation is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets. Goodwill is systematically tested for impairment at each balance sheet date. Other intangible assets are amortised from the date they are available for use. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Technology rights 8-20 years
Patent 5-10 years
Computer software 3-10 years

(h) Investments

  • (i) Investment properties

Investment properties are properties which are held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both. Investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see note 2 (n) ).

Depreciation is provided to write off the cost, where appropriate, of each asset over its estimated useful life ranging from 20 to 40 years on a straight-line basis, after taking into account its estimated residual value. The useful lives and residual values are reassessed annually.

A property interest under an operating lease is classified and accounted for as an investment property on a property-by-property basis when the Group holds it to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. Any such property interest under an operating lease classified as an investment property is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see note 2 (n) ). Lease payments are accounted for as described in accounting policy ( u) .

14

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(h) Investments (continued)

  • (ii) Other investments in debt and equity securities

The Group’s policies for investments in debt and equity securities, other than investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities, are as follows:

Investments in securities held for trading are classified as current assets and are initially stated at fair value. At the balance sheet date the fair value is remeasured, with any resultant gain or loss recognised in the income statement.

Dated debt securities that the Group have the positive ability and intention to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities. Held-to-maturity securities are initially recognised in the balance sheet at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are stated in the balance sheet at amortised cost less impairment losses (see note 2( n ))

Investments in equity securities that do not have quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value could not be measured reliably are recognised in the balance sheet at cost less impairment losses (see note 2( n )).

Investments are recognised/derecognised on the date the Group commits to purchase/sell the investments or when they are expired.

(i) Construction in progress

Construction in progress represents buildings, various plant and equipment under construction and pending installation, and is stated at cost less impairment losses (see note 2 (n) ). Cost comprises direct costs of construction, borrowing costs and foreign exchange differences on related borrowed funds to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest charges and exchange differences on the designated financial instruments (see notes 2 (d) and (w) ) during the period of construction.

Capitalisation of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to property, plant and equipment when the asset is substantially ready for its intended use.

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

(j) Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts (see note 2 (n) ), except where the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts (see note 2 (n) ).

(k) Lease prepayments

Lease prepayments represent land use rights paid to the PRC’s governmental authorities. Land use rights are carried at cost less impairment losses (see note 2 (n) ) and are amortised on a straight-line basis over the respective periods of the rights.

15

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

  • (l) Inventories

Inventories, other than spare parts, tools and ancillary materials, are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.

The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average cost formula and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their existing location and condition. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share of overheads based on normal operating capacity.

When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any writedown of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable value, is recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

Spare parts, tools and ancillary materials are stated at cost less provision for obsolescence.

(m) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated cash flow statement.

(n) Impairment

  • (i)

  • Impairment of investments in debt and equity securities and other receivables

Investments in debt and equity securities and other current and non-current receivables that are stated at cost or amortised cost are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment. If any such evidence exists, any impairment loss is determined and recognised as follows:

  • For unquoted equity securities and current receivables that are carried at cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset where the effect of discounting is material. Impairment losses for current receivables are reversed if in a subsequent period the amount of the impairment loss decreases. Impairment losses for equity securities are not reversed.

  • For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition of these assets).

If in a subsequent period the amount of an impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be linked objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, the impairment loss is reversed through the income statement. A reversal of an impairment loss shall not result in the asset’s carrying amount exceeding that which would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years.

16

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

  • (n) Impairment (continued)

  • (ii) Impairment of other assets

Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at each balance sheet date to identify indications that the following assets may be impaired or, an impairment loss previously recognised no longer exists or may have decreased:

  • property, plant and equipment;

  • construction in progress;

  • intangible assets;

  • lease prepayments;

  • investment properties;

  • other investments; and

  • goodwill.

If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

  • Calculation of recoverable amount

The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its net selling price 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 time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e. a cash-generating unit).

  • Recognition of impairment losses

An impairment loss is recognised in the income statement whenever the carrying amount of an asset, or the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit (or group of units) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of other assets in the unit (or group of units) on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less costs to sell, or value in use, if determinable.

  • Reversals of impairment losses

In respect of assets other than goodwill, an impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed.

A reversal of an impairment loss is limited to the asset’s carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years. Reversals of impairment losses are credited to the income statement in the year in which the reversals are recognised.

17

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(o) Dividends

Dividends are recognised as a liability in the period which they are declared

(p) Interest-bearing borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings on an effective interest basis.

(q) Employees benefits

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution retirement schemes are recognised as an expense in the income statement as incurred.

The Group’s net obligation in respect of lump sum long service amounts payable on cessation of employment in certain circumstances under the relevant statutory requirement is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. The obligation is calculated using the projected unit credit method, discounted to its present value and reduced by the fair value of any related assets. The discount rate is the yield at the balance sheet date on high quality fixed interest corporate bonds or government bonds that have maturity dates approximately to the terms of the Group’s obligations.

(r) Provisions and contingent liabilities

Provisions are recognised for liabilities for uncertain timing or amount when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation.

Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.

(s) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

18

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(t) Revenue recognition

  • (i) Goods sold and services rendered

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised in the income statement when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer. Revenue excludes value added tax or other sales taxes and is after deduction of any trade discounts.

(ii) Rental income

Rental income from investment property is recognised in the income statement on a straightline basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental income.

(iii) Government grant

An unconditional government grant is recognised in the income statement as other operating income when the grant becomes receivable. Any other government grant is recognised in the balance sheet initially as deferred income when there is reasonable assurance that it will be received and that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to it. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised as revenue in the income statement on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are incurred. Grants that compensate the Group for the cost of an asset are recognised in the income statement as other operating income on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset.

(iv) Dividend income

Dividend income from other investments is recognised when the shareholder’s right to receive the payment is established.

(iv) Interest income

Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method.

(u) Expenses

(i) Operating lease payments

Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the income statement on a straightline basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in the income statement as an integral part of the total lease expense.

(ii) Net financing costs

Net financing costs comprise interest expenses on borrowings calculated using the effective interest rate method, interest receivable on bank deposits, dividend income, foreign exchange gains and losses, and gains and losses on derivative financial instruments that are recognised in the income statement.

Interest income is recognised in the income statement as it accrues, using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognised in the income statement on the date the entity’s right to receive payments is established which in the case of quoted securities is usually the exdividend date.

19

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(v) Income tax

Income tax on the income statement for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the income statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly to equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

(w) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are expensed in the income statement in the period in which they are incurred, except to the extent that they are capitalised as being directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use.

The capitalisation of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when expenditure for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are interrupted or complete.

(x) Segment reporting

A segment is a distinguishable component of the Group that is engaged either in providing products or services (business segment), or in providing products or services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments.

In accordance with the Group’s internal financial reporting system, the Group has chosen business segment information as the primary reporting format and geographical segment information as the secondary reporting format for the purposes of these financial statements.

Segment revenue, expenses, results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis to that segment. For example, segment assets may include inventories, trade receivables and property, plant and equipment. Segment revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are determined before intragroup balances and intra-group transactions are eliminated as part of the consolidation process, except to the extent that such intra-group balances and transactions are between group entities within a single segment. Inter-segment pricing is based on similar terms as those available to other external parties.

20

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(x) Segment reporting (continued)

Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire segment assets (both tangible and intangible) that are expected to be used for more than one period.

Unallocated items mainly comprise financial and corporate assets, interest-bearing loans, borrowings, tax balances, corporate and financing expenses.

  • (y) Related parties

For the purposes of these financial statements, parties are considered to be related to the Group if the Group has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the party or exercise significant influence over the party in making financial and operating decisions, or vice versa, or where the Group and the party are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals (being members of key management personnel, significant shareholders and/ or their close family members) or other entities and include entities which are under the significant influence of related parties of the Group where those parties are individuals, and post-employment benefit plans which are for the benefit of employees of the Group or of any entity that is a related party of the Group.

  • (z) Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations

Immediately before classification as held for sale, the measurement of the assets (and all assets and liabilities in a disposal group) is brought up-to-date in accordance with IFRSs. Then, on initial classification as held for sale, non-current assets and disposal groups are recognised at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.

Impairment losses on initial classification as held for sale are included in the income statement, even when there is a revaluation. The same applies to gains and losses on subsequent remeasurement.

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.

Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, if earlier. A disposal group that is to be abandoned may also qualify.

3 Change in accounting policies

The IASB has issued a number of new and revised IFRSs that are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2005. The accounting policies of the group after the adoption of these new and revised IFRSs have been summarised in note 2. The following sets out information on the significant changes in accounting policies for the current and prior accounting periods effected in these financial statements.

The group has not applied any new standard or interpretation that is not yet effective for the current accounting period (see note 41).

  • (a) Amortisation of positive and negative goodwill (IFRS 3, Business Combinations and IAS 36, Impairment of assets)

In prior periods:

  • positive goodwill was amortised on a straight line basis over its useful life and was subject to impairment testing when there were indications of impairment; and

  • negative goodwill was amortised over the weighted average useful life of the depreciation/amortisable non-monetary assets acquired, except to the extent it related to identified expected future losses as at the date of acquisition. In such cases it was recognised in the income statement as those expected losses were incurred.

With effect from 1 January 2005, in order to comply with IFRS 3 and IAS 36, the Group has changed its accounting policies relating to goodwill. Under the new policy, the Group no longer amortises positive goodwill but tests it at least annually for impairment. Also with effect from 1 January 2005 and in accordance with IFRS 3, if the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination exceeds the consideration paid (i.e. an amount arises which would have been known as negative goodwill under the previous accounting policy), the excess is recognised immediately in the income statement as it arises. Further details of these new policies are set out in note 2( g)(i).

The new policy in respect of the amortisation of positive goodwill has been applied prospectively in accordance with the transitional arrangements under IFRS 3, while the new policy in respect of the recognition of negative goodwill has been applied retrospectively with comparatives restated. The carrying amounts of negative goodwill at the beginning of the year were derecognised with a corresponding adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings.

The following tables disclose the adjustments that have been made in accordance with IFRS3 and IAS 36 to each of the line items for the consolidation financial statements of the Group as previously reported for the year ended 31 December 2004 and those affected for the year ended 31 December 2005.

  • (b) Changes in presentation (IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements)

  • (i) Presentation of shares of associates’ and jointly controlled entities’ taxation (IAS 1, Presentation of financial statements)

In prior years, the Group’s share of taxation of associates and jointly controlled entities accounted for using the equity method was included as part of the Group’s income tax in the consolidated income statement. With effect from 1 January 2005, in accordance with the implementation guidance in IAS 1, the Group has changed the presentation and includes the share of taxation of associates and jointly controlled entities accounted for using the equity method in the respective shares of profit or loss reported in the consolidated income statement before arriving at the Group’s profit or loss before tax. These changes in presentation have been applied retrospectively with comparatives restated.

  • (ii) Minority interests (IAS 1, Presentation of financial statements and IAS 27, Consolidated and separate financial statements)

In prior years, minority interests at the balance sheet date were presented in the consolidated balance sheet separately from liabilities and as deduction from net assets. Minority interests in the results of the Group for the year were also separately presented in the income statement as a deduction before arriving at the profit attributable to shareholders (the equity shareholders of the Company).

With effect from 1 January 2005, in order to comply with IAS 1 and IAS 27, the Group has changed its accounting policy relating to presentation of minority interests. Under the new policy, minority interests are presented as part of equity, separately from interests attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company. Further details of the new policy are set out in note 2( c ). These changes in presentation have been applied retrospectively with comparatives restated.

  • (c) Definition of related parties (IAS 24, Related party disclosures)

As a result of the adoption of IAS 24, Related party disclosures, the definition of related parties as disclosed in note 2(y) has been expanded. The revised IAS 24 also requires the compensation of key management personnel to be disclosed. The Group has included these additional disclosures in note 32(d) to the financial statements.

4 Turnover

Turnover represents the aggregate of the invoiced value of goods sold and services rendered, after allowances for goods returned and deduction of any trade discounts, and excludes value added tax or other sales taxes.

5 Segment reporting

Segment information is presented in respect of the Group’s business and geographical segments. The primary format, business segments, is based on the Group’s management and internal reporting structure.

Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis.

Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly incomeearning assets and revenue, interest-bearing loans, borrowings and expenses, and corporate assets and expenses.

Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire segment assets that are expected to be used for more than one period.

(i) Business segments

The Group comprises the following main business segments:

  • Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display (“TFT-LCD”) business;

  • Application Special Device (“ASD”) business, which include Super Twisted NematicLiquid Crystal Display (“STN-CTSN”) business and non STN-CTSN business;

  • Cathode Radial Tube-Liquid Crystal Display (“CRT-LCD”) business; and

  • Others include Precision Electronic Components and materials and other business lines.

Upon the completion of share transfer of Beijing Orient Top Victory Electronics Co., Ltd (“OTPV”) to TPV Technology Limited (“TPV”) (see note 6) on 30 November 2005, the CRTLCD business ceased to be a business segment of the Group. CRT-LCD is classified as discontinued operation for the years ended 31 December 2004 and 2005.

  • (ii) Geographical segments

The Group’s three major business segments are managed on a worldwide basis, but operate in four main geographical areas.

PRC is the home country of the Group which is also the main operating country. The areas of operation cover all the three activities.

Other Asia region mainly covers the production and sales activity of TFT-LCD, CRT-LCD and STN-CTSN.

European region mainly covers the sales activity of STN-CTSN and CRT-LCD while American region mainly covers the sales activity of TFT-LCD, STN-CTSN and CRT-LCD.

In presenting information on the basis of geographical segments, segment revenue is based on the geographical location of customers. Segment assets are based on the geographical location of the assets.

6 Discontinued operations

On 30 November 2005, the Company sold all its equity interest in Beijing Orient Top Victory Electronics Co., Ltd (“OTPV”) to TPV Technology Limited (“TPV”), an associate of the Group. In connection with this transaction, TPV issued 68,326,408 new shares to acquire the Group’s entire interest in OTPV, formerly a 45.21% owned consolidated subsidiary of the Company. The total consideration received, which was based on the market value of the shares received on completion date at HK$6.55 per share, amounted to approximately HK$447,538,000 (equivalent to RMB466,440,000) and the Company recognised a gain of approximately RMB133,753,000, after netting of related expenses, on disposal of OTPV in 2005. Accordingly, the acquisition of the additional equity interest in TPV does not have any cash flow impact, apart from the net cash disposed of as disclosed below.

OTPV mainly covers the CRT-LCD business of the Group. For the purpose of these financial statements, the results of OTPV are presented as discontinued operations for the years ended 31 December 2004 and 2005.

During the year ended 31 December 2005, the subsidiary had cash outflow from operating activities of RMB 190,614,000 (2004: RMB 47,961,000 inflow), cash outflow from investing activities of RMB 13,309,000 (2004: RMB 54,606,000 outflow) and cash inflow from financing activities of RMB 57,250,000 (2004: RMB 145,375,000 inflow).

14 Intangible assets (continued)

  • (a) Adoption of IFRS 3 “Business Combinations”

In 2004, positive goodwill not already recognised directly in reserves was amortised on a straight-line basis over five years. The amortisation of positive goodwill for the year ended 31 December 2004 was included in administrative expenses in the income statement.

As explained further in note 3(a), with effect from 1 January 2005 the Group no longer amortises goodwill. In accordance with the transitional provisions set out in IFRS 3, the accumulated amortisation of goodwill as at 1 January 2005 has been eliminated against the cost of goodwill as at that date.

(b) Impairment losses

In 2005, the patent protection periods of certain patents owned by BOE-Hydis were expired and the carrying amount of the patents was written down by RMB407,000 accordingly.

  • (c) Impairment tests for cash-generating units (“CGUs”) containing goodwill

Goodwill is allocated to the Group’s CGU identified according to country of operation and business segment as follows:

At 31 December
2005 2004
RMB’000 RMB’000
Property management activities based in Beijing
(Beijing Orient Heng Tong Property Centre) 42,632 42,632
Others 762 762
_____ _____
43,394 43,394
========== ==========

The recoverable amounts of CGUs are determined based on value-in-use calculations as derived from financial budgets approved by management covering a five-year period. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using the estimate rates stated below. The growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the business in which the CGUs operates.

Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations:

2005 2004
% %
Gross margin 13.7 13.7
Growth rate 10 10
Discount rate 8.2 8.2

Management determined the budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectation for market development. The weighted average growth rates used are consistent with the forecasts included in industry reports. The discount rates used are pre-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the property management industry, in which Beijing Orient Heng Tong Property Centre, a subsidiary of the Group, is mainly engaging.

39

14 Intangible assets (continued)

Based on the assessment, the carrying amount of the unit was approximately equal to its recoverable amount. Any adverse change in the assumptions used in the calculation of recoverable amount would cause the carrying value to be less than the recoverable amount (see note 40). For details on Beijing Orient Heng Tong Property Centre, please see note 36.

(c) At 31 December 2005, the Group pledged intangible assets with net book value of approximately RMB734,000 (2004: 1,105,000) as collateral for the Group’s bank loans (note 26(a)).

15 Lease prepayments

Lease prepayments represent the land use rights on land located in the PRC. The remaining periods of the land use rights of the Group range from 6 to 48 years.

At 31 December 2005, the Group did not pledge its land use rights (2004: net book value of RMB4,123,000) as collateral for the Group’s bank loans (note 26(a)).

16 Investment properties (continued)

Investment property is not measured at fair value as the determination of its fair value cannot be made with sufficient reliability on a continuing basis as comparable market transactions are infrequent and alternative reliable estimates of fair value are not available.

Investment properties comprise a number of commercial properties that are leased to external parties. The leases typically run for an initial period from one year to ten years. Subsequent renewals are negotiated with the leasee. Property interests held under operating leases are classified as investment properties. No contingent rents are charged.

At 31 December 2005, the Group pledged investment properties with a book value of approximately RMB 129,028,000 (2004: RMB 134,668,000) (note 26(a)).

Please see note 33(b) for details on investment properties leased out under operating leases.

31 Reserves (continued)

(a) Statutory surplus reserve

According to the Articles of Association of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, the Company and the relevant subsidiaries are required to transfer 10% of their annual net profits after taxation, as determined in accordance with the PRC GAAP, to a statutory surplus reserve until the reserve balance reaches 50% of the registered capital. The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of a dividend to shareholders. Statutory surplus reserve can be used to offset prior years’ losses, if any, and may be converted into share capital by the issue of new shares to shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital.

Statutory public welfare fund

According to the Articles and Association of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, the Company and the relevant subsidiaries are required to transfer 5% to 10% of their annual net profits after taxation, as determined under PRC GAAP, to the statutory public welfare fund. This fund can only be utilised on capital items for the collective benefits of the Company’s and the relevant subsidiaries’ employees such as the construction of dormitories, canteen and other staff welfare facilities. This fund is nondistributable other than in liquidation. The transfer to this fund must be made before distribution of a dividend to shareholders.

Discretionary surplus reserve

The appropriation to the discretionary surplus reserve is subject to the shareholders’ approval. The utilisation of the reserve is similar to that of the statutory surplus reserve.

Under the Company’s Articles of Association, the net profit after taxation as reported in the financial statements prepared in accordance with PRC GAAP can only be distributed as dividends after allowance has been made for:

35 Financial instruments

Exposure to liquidity, credit, interest rate and currency risk arises in the normal course of the Group’s business. The risks are limited by the Group’s financial management policies and practices described below.

Credit risk

Substantially all of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents are held in major financial institutions located in the PRC and Korea. The Group’s major customers are the manufacturers of computer monitors and various electronics products, which accounted for significant amounts of the Group’s total operating revenues during the year. The Group has no significant credit risk with any of these customers since the Group maintains long-term and stable business relationships with these large customers in the industry. The Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral on trade receivables.

Interest rate risk

The interest rates of bank and other borrowings of the Group are disclosed in note 26.

60

35 Financial instruments (continued)

Foreign currency risk

The Group operates globally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures primarily with respect to Korean Won and United States Dollars. The Group uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its foreign currency risk.

Substantially all the Group’s cash flows are denominated in Renminbi. Apart from Korean Won and United States Dollars denominated trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, trade and other payables and interest bearing loans and borrowings as disclosed in notes 22, 23, 24 and 26 to the financial statements respectively.

In respect of other monetary assets and liabilities held in currencies other than the Renminbi, the Group ensures that the net exposure is kept to an acceptable level, by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates where necessary to address short-term imbalances.

Liquidity risk

Individual operating entities within the group are responsible for their own cash management, including the short term investment of cash surpluses and the raising of loans to cover expected cash demands, subject to approval by the Company’s board when the borrowings exceed certain predetermined levels of authority. The Group’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements and its compliance with loan covenants to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash, adequate lines of funding from major financial institutions and access to the capital markets to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer terms.

Fair value

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and held-to-maturity securities are not materially different from their carrying amounts.

The fair values of the Group’s bank loans and other borrowings are estimated by applying a discounted cash flow using current market interest rates for similar financial instruments approximate to their carrying values.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time and based on relevant market information and information about financial instruments. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgement and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

40 Accounting estimates and judgments

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

Notes 28 and 35 contain information about the assumptions and their risk factors relating to employee benefits and financial instruments. Other key sources of estimating uncertainty are as follows:

(i) Impairment of assets

The Group determines the impairment of assets taking into account the Group’s estimate of the selling prices, for manufacturing costs and the costs to be incurred in selling certain products. Management reviews the impairment of assets at the balance sheet date.

  • (ii) Provision for inventories

As explained in the note 2( l ), the Group’s inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Based on the Group’s recent experience and the nature of the inventories, the Group makes estimates of the selling prices, the costs of completion in case for work in progress, and the costs to be incurred in selling the inventories. Uncertainty exists in these estimations.

(iii) Warranty provisions

The Group makes provisions under the warranties it gives on sale of its products taking into account the Group’s recent claim experience. Based on the Group’s estimates and the nature of the products developed by the Group, the Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

(iv) Bad debt provision for trade receivables

The Group’s management determines the bad debt provision for trade receivables on a regular basis. This estimate is based on the credit history of its customers and current market conditions. Management reviews the bad debt provision for trade receivables at the balance sheet date.

(v) Depreciation

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, after taking into account the estimated residual value. The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets regularly in order to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives are based on the Group’s historical experience with similar assets and taking into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous estimates.

41 Possible impact of amendments, new standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective for the annual accounting period ended 31 December 2005

Up to the date of issue of these financial statements, the IASB has issued the following amendments, new standards and interpretations which are not yet effective for the accounting period ending 31 December 2005 and which have not been adopted in these financial statements:

Of these developments, the following relate to matters that may be relevant to the Group’s operations and financial statements:

Effective for
accounting
periods beginning
on or after
IFRIC 4 Determining whether an arrangement 1 January 2006

Amendments to IAS 19 Employee benefits - Actuarial Gains and 1 January 2006

Amendments to IAS 39 Financial instruments:
Recognition and measurement:
- The fair value option 1 January 2006
- Financial guarantee contracts 1 January 2006

The Group is in the process of making an assessment of what the impact of these amendments, new standards and new interpretations is expected to be in the period of initial application. So far it has concluded that the adoption of them is unlikely to have a significant impact on the Group’s results of operations and financial position.

42 Other important issues

Pursuant to the restructuring agreement signed between BOE Land Co. Ltd. (“BOE Land”) with Beijing Zhong Ye An Shun Da Metallurgy Corporation (“Beijing An Shun Da”) in respect of the restructuring of Beijing Zhongjin Shun Da Corporation (“BZSD”), BOE Land would acquire 60% interest of BZSD which was a 100% owned subsidiary of Beijing An Shun Da. BOE Land paid RMB26,000,000 to Beijing An Shun Da and had advanced RMB18,000,000 to BSZD as operating fund. As part of the transaction, Beijing An Shun Da was required to inject a land use right and ownerships of respective properties totally RMB40,000,000 on that land to BZSD. Beijing An Shun Da failed to make the said injection of land use right and ownership of respective properties to BZSD.

Accordingly, the Group applied to the court which concluded that the share transfer agreement of BZSD was ineffective due to the failure of Beijing An Shun Da to perform the responsibility as stated in the agreement. Beijing An Shun Da is required to repay RMB 44,000,000 to BOE Land and related interest of approximately RMB 5,300,000.

Notes to the Financial Statements (Expressed in Renminbi)

  • (i) In prior years, positive and negative goodwill were amortised on a straight line basis over its useful life not exceeding 20 years under IFRS. With effect from 1 January 2005, following the adoption of IFRS 3, the Group no longer amortises the positive goodwill but tests it at least annually for impairment under IFRS.
