SUPPLEMENTAL ANNOUNCEMENT UPDATE ON THE ANNUAL RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

Reference is made to the announcement of China Beidahuang Industry Group Holdings Limited (the “ Company ”, together with its subsidiaries, the “ Group ”) dated 30 March 2022 in relation to the unaudited annual results of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2021 (the “ 2021 Unaudited Results Announcement ”).

As certain adjustments have been made to the unaudited annual results of the Group as contained in the 2021 Unaudited Results Announcement published on 30 March 2022, the differences between the unaudited annual results and the audited annual results contained in this announcement are set out in the section headed “Material Differences between the Unaudited and Audited Annual Results” in this announcement in accordance with Rule 13.49(3)(ii)(b) of the Listing Rules.

EXTRACT FROM THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The following is an extract of the independent auditors’ report on the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021:

We do not express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements of the Group. Because of the significance of the matters described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion section of our report, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on these consolidated financial statements. In all other respects, in our opinion, the consolidated financial statements have been properly prepared in compliance with the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

BASIS FOR DISCLAIMER OF OPINION

Material uncertainties relating to the going concern basis

As stated in Note 2.2 to the consolidated financial statements, as of 31 December 2021, the Group had defaulted in repayments of its debts, including: i) default in repayment of principal amount of secured bonds of HK$109,000,000 and interests thereon of approximately HK$32,700,000 (the “ Defaulted Secured Bonds ”); ii) default in repayment of principal amount of unsecured bonds of HK$127,600,000 and interests thereon of approximately HK$14,982,000 (the “ Defaulted Unsecured Bonds ”), of which a holder claims the aggregate amount of approximately HK$5,252,000 including interest thereon, has filed a petition against the Company; and iii) default in settlement of construction payables which, including additional penalties thereon, amounted to approximately HK$101,814,000 (the “ Defaulted Construction Payables ”), in respect of which the Group had received a notice from the contractor of the event of default and demand for payment. In addition, the Group had outstanding bank and other borrowings other than the Defaulted Secured Bonds and Defaulted Unsecured Bonds of approximately HK$224,449,000 as at 31 December 2021 which were due for repayment or renewal in the next twelve months after 31 December 2021 and incurred a loss for the year ended 31 December 2021 of approximately HK$177,290,000. These events and conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2.2, that existed as at 31 December 2021 cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.

2

The Directors have assessed the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and are undertaking measures to improve the Group’s liquidity and financial position and enable the Group to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due. These plans for future actions in relation to the going concern assessment, which are set out in Note 2.2 to the consolidated financial statements, include: (i) management is endeavoring to improve the Group’s operating results and cash flows through cost control measures and will focus on the existing business of the Group; (ii) the Group is negotiating with its secured and unsecured bondholders to extend the repayment dates for the principal and interest amounts of the Defaulted Secured Bonds and the Defaulted Unsecured Bonds. In the opinion of the Directors, the majority of the holders of the Defaulted Secured Bonds and the Defaulted Unsecured Bonds will not proceed with legal actions against the Group and instead will agree upon new repayment terms to be agreed between the Group and the secured bondholder and the unsecured bondholders; (iii) the Group is considering the disposals of its non-financial assets and properties; (iv) a substantial shareholder of the Company has agreed to continuously provide financial support for the continuing operations of the Group so as to enable it to meet its liabilities when they fall due and carry on its business without a significant curtailment of its operations in the twelve months from the date of approval of consolidated financial statement; and (v) the Company is negotiating with investors for obtaining further financing including but not limited to equity financing, bank borrowing and issuance of new convertible bonds to improve the liquidity of the Group.

The validity of the preparation of the consolidated financial statements on going concern basis depends on the successful eventual outcome of the above mentioned plans and measures, which are inherently uncertain and as at the date of this report cannot be ascertained with reasonable certainty and are still subject to multiple uncertainties, particularly in respect of whether the bondholders would agree to extend further the dates of repayment of the Defaulted Secured Bonds and the Defaulted Unsecured Bonds.

3

Should the Group fail to achieve successful outcomes from the above-mentioned plans and measures, it might not be able to continue to operate as a going concern, and adjustments would have to be made to write down the carrying amounts of the Group’s assets to their net recoverable amounts, to provide for any further liabilities that may arise and to reclassify noncurrent assets and non-current liabilities as current assets and current liabilities respectively. The effects of these adjustments have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

We have not been provided with sufficient appropriate audit evidence to conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements because of the lack of detailed analyses provided by management in relation to its plans and measures for future actions in its going concern assessment which take into account the uncertainty of outcome of these plans and measures and how variability in outcome would affect the future cash flows of the Group. Any adjustments found to be required may have consequential significant effects on the consolidated net assets of the Group as at 31 December 2021 and the consolidated loss and other comprehensive income or loss and cash flows of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2021, and the related elements and disclosures thereof presented or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements.
