2016 Interim Report Wisdom Sports Group

Chairlady’s Statement

==> picture [469 x 302] intentionally omitted <==

Dear Shareholders:

Although Wisdom had been questioned by the industry when the 2015 annual report was published half a year ago, Wisdom proved to the industry with its excellent performance. Within half a year, we have successfully completed our industrial enhancement and thus become a true sports industry company instead of merely an event operation company or a company relying on traditional advertisement business as we were in the past.

The second half of last year was a very tough year for Wisdom, during which, we rolled out our overall industrial enhancement and implemented various business plans comprehensively. But at the same time, we encountered great difficulties in our traditional business and were unable to stop the market decline by ourselves. After the hardship and struggle, we decisively discontinued our traditional advertisement business at the beginning of this year, which recorded significant decline and undermined our financial results for 2015.

A company needs to have immense courage in order to carry out the complete transformation and I am always concerned about how to fulfill our obligations to our shareholders, employees, users, clients and everyone who has faith in us. I was told all the time that the burden was too heavy for a chairlady.

Chairlady’s Statement

I am fearless of even heavier burdens since this is the industry I have chosen and I decide to move on. Taking into account that Wisdom was appreciated by its fans for the Marathons it operated and won the bid of the Shenzhen International Marathon with overwhelming superiority, I saw the recognition by our users and government and a more promising future ahead as well as the huge potential in the sports industry in China. I firmly believe that we will achieve better return with our persistent efforts.

The successful transformation of Wisdom indicates that the market still needs a group of people who love and respect the industry and we are willing to start from the very beginning to contribute to the industry development by all means.

Wisdom has always been a down-to-earth company with low profile and forged ahead step by step since its establishment 13 years ago. When others were still exploring ways to make profit in the sports industry, we showed the world with our action that the sports industry is a blue ocean market full of possibilities.

We have a clearer strategic deployment for the future after being through prosperous growth for over a decade, the dilemma in choosing between obligations and business opportunities in 2015 as well as steady and rapid development in the first half of 2016. “Wisdom in the mind and fitness in the body”(「智其身心,美其體魄」)is not merely our slogan but also our mission.

Adhering to the strategic changes last year, the Group strengthened efforts in exploiting platform strategy in 2016, set the goal of connecting human sporting genes to create Wisdom DNA, continued to deepen the layout for its sports industry-chain and intensified cooperation with other industry platforms to utilize its core strengths in the area of population, data and consumption to provide different consumer options for the massive sports-enthusiasts. Centering on population, consumption and data, the Group extended its positioning in the four segments covering event management, sports marketing, sports services, and brand media in the field of sports. In the meantime, the Group accelerated its operating-platform expansion through integrating of excellent talents, high-end technologies and increased business investment. The road-race project platform mainly focused on the organization of marathon events, commercial operations, runner services and audio-visual production. Commencing from this year, the Group started to implement the 2016–2019 marathon industry-wide development strategy and focused on producing world-class IP events, national-level IP events, city-level IP events and entertainment IP events to provide consumption, population and data support for its diversified marathon segments and products so as to successfully upgrade the overall strategy of the road-race segment. The Group has also succeeded in its bid to host the “One Belt and One Road” marathon series sponsored by the Chinese Athletic Association, using the marathon series to promote sports and cultural exchanges among domestic and international cities surrounding the “One Belt and One Road” zones and to enhance the Group’s international branding and China’s athletic developments.

Management Discussion and Analysis

(Business to Business) market for the Group. With regard to B2C (Business to Customer) business, the Group will continue to promote profoundly the marathon training-camps, to integrate sports tourism projects related to the marathon events, and to constantly enrich and optimize the product structure in the road-race market, satisfying the advanced needs of the runners.

While expanding the road-race project, the Group has also officially launched its new basketball project in 2016. The new project had been actively pursued by the Group since last year. The Group obtained the commercial operation right of National Basketball League (“ NBL ”) — one of the three professional basketball leagues in China for 2016–2019 as well as 20% equity interest in the NBL alliance company, Beijing Enbiou Sports Management Co., Ltd (北京恩彼歐體育管理有限公司). Armed also with the Group’s proprietary intellectual rights in “City Basketball Amateur League” (“ CBL ”), the Group has achieved the overall positioning from mass-attended tournaments to professional-league tournaments in the field of basketball operation to accumulate basketball enthusiasts based on the tournament-platform. At the same time, the Group worked with other platforms to promote related new products, such as basketball training courses and tournament products.

2016 is Olympic year and it is also a growth year for the sports industry. After the Beijing Olympic Games, there was a continued rise in sports consciousness among Chinese people, which also indicated the need to build more multi-purpose sports stadiums to meet the diversified sporting needs of sports enthusiasts, to establish a consumption base for the massive sports enthusiasts and to cultivate a broadened consumer market. In the light of this development, the Group acquired 55% equity interest in Shenzhen SEG ZM Sports Culture Development Co., Ltd. (深圳賽格智美體育文化發展有限公司) (“ SEG Wisdom ”), which is registered in Shenzhen, China and is engaged in the business of stadium management services, in April 2016. The Group believes that the joint development of stadium operation with SEG Wisdom will fully enhance the edges which the Group has established in the field of sports and, through capital-market investment or direct development, will generate high economic returns and high business growth to the Group in the second half of 2016.

The Group plans to make full expansion in the sports industry in 2016. In order to cope with higher requirements for marketing, management, services and monitoring, the Group will continue to hire outstanding professional talents both within and from outside of the industry and to implement quality-improvement program in information system, operation standard and other fields to strengthen internal control and to improve overall management internally. In order to encourage employees to constantly look for breakthroughs and to become part of the driving forces behind the Group’s sustainable development, the Group established Wisdom DNA Cultural Fund (the “ Fund ”) in July 2016 to award shares to 10 outstanding employees annually. The Fund is donated by Ms. Ren Wen, the Chairlady of the Board of the Group.

The Group fully excelled in the organization of marathon events: ensured a high quality-standard of the events, implemented uniform standards for procurement, improved health-care assurance and established new media facilities. Although several marathon events were postponed to the second half of 2016 due to unstable weather conditions and other reasons, the Group still organized four high-level marathon events namely “2016 Kunming Plateau International Half Marathon”, “2016 Hainan International Marathon”, “2016 Dongguan Songshan Lake International Marathon” and “2016 Jilin International Marathon”, and co-operated the “2016 Tianjin Marathon”.

II. Wisdom Program & Branding

Some of the business in 2015 were carried over to 2016 and they made contribution to the earnings of the Group.

The Group’s net other losses decreased by approximately 78.9% to RMB1.2 million for the six months ended 30 June 2016 from RMB5.7 million for the six months ended 30 June 2015. This decrease was mainly due to the decrease in provision for outstanding receivables.

Management Discussion and Analysis

For the clients who purchase advertising time slots in Wisdom Program & Branding, the Group normally requires advance payment according to the specific payment schedules set forth in relevant advertisement placement agreements. The Group generally does not grant credit terms to these clients in the agreements with them, except for a very few clients who have a large amount of transaction volume or long business relationship with the Group. For the clients of Wisdom Program & Branding who purchase advertising resources other than advertising time slots, the Group normally allows them to make payments in instalments according to the schedule set forth in the agreements with them. For the clients of the Wisdom Events, the Group normally allows them to make payments in instalments according to the schedule set forth in the agreements with them.

In addition to the Group’s payment arrangements with the clients set forth in the relevant agreements, the Group conducts a periodic review of their payment progress in the Group’s internal control system and assesses the Group’s credit policy for them. After taking into account a series of factors, including transaction volume, length of business relationship, prior dealing history with the Group, creditworthiness, the industry practice, the macroeconomic and market competition environment, the Group’s financial position and working capital needs and the Group’s marketing and sales strategy, the Group may further extend credit periods ranging from three to six months for some of the clients in practice. Such extension of credit periods is granted on a case-by-case basis and not set forth in the payment terms in the agreements with relevant clients. The Group will continue to monitor the payment progress of these clients and take appropriate measures as to the collection of trade and notes receivables based on the Group’s assessment and ongoing communications with the clients.

The Group has not experienced any material impact or effects on its operations or liquidity as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates for the six months ended 30 June 2016. The Company has not used any financial instruments for hedging purposes as the risk of exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates is comparatively low.

Report on Review of Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF WISDOM SPORTS GROUP

(incorporated in Cayman Islands with limited liability)

INTRODUCTION

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated financial statements of Wisdom Sports Group (the “ Company ”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “ Group ”) set out on pages 31 to 56, which comprises the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of 30 June 2016 and the related condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and certain explanatory notes. The Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited require the preparation of a report on interim financial information to be in compliance with the relevant provisions thereof and Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” (“ HKAS 34 ”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with HKAS 34. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed consolidated financial statements based on our review, and to report our conclusion solely to you, as a body, in accordance with our agreed terms of engagement, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

SCOPE OF REVIEW

We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity” issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of these condensed consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

2016 Interim Report Wisdom Sports Group

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

Wisdom Sports Group (the “ Company ”), was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on 21 March 2012 as an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law, Cap 22 (2012 Revision) of the Cayman Islands. The address of the registered office of the Company is Cricket Square, Hutchins Drive, P.O. Box 2681, Grand Cayman, KY1-1111, Cayman Islands.

The Company is an investment holding company. The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “ Group ”) is principally engaged in the provision of events services and program and branding services in the People’s Republic of China (the “ PRC ” or “ China ”).

The Company’s shares have been listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ Stock Exchange ”) since 11 July 2013.

This condensed consolidated financial statements is presented in Renminbi (“ RMB ”), unless otherwise stated.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2016 have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Accounting Standards (“ HKAS ”) 34, “Interim financial reporting” issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants as well as with the applicable disclosure requirements of Appendix 16 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ Listing Rules ”). The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015, which have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“ HKFRS ”).

The preparation of interim financial information requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing this condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015.

36 2016 Interim Report Wisdom Sports Group

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair values, as appropriate.

The accounting policies and methods of computation used in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2016 are the same as those followed in the preparation of the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015. In addition, the Group applied the following accounting policies which became relevant to the Group in the current interim period:

Interest in a joint venture

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

The results and assets and liabilities of joint venture are incorporated in these condensed consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. The financial statements of joint ventures used for equity accounting purposes are prepared using uniform accounting policies as those of the Group for like transactions and events in similar circumstances. Under the equity method, an investment in a joint venture is initially recognised in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the joint venture. When the Group’s share of losses of a joint venture exceeds the Group’s interest in that joint venture (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the joint venture), the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint venture.

An investment in a joint venture is accounted for using the equity method from the date on which the investee becomes a joint venture. On acquisition of the investment in a joint venture, any excess of the cost of the investment over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the investee is recognised as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the investment, after reassessment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired.

37

2016 Interim Report Wisdom Sports Group

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

3. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Interest in a joint venture-continued

The requirements of HKAS 39 are applied to determine whether it is necessary to recognise any impairment loss with respect to the Group’s investment in a joint venture. When necessary, the entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with HKAS 36 Impairment of Assets as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use and fair value less costs of disposal) with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognised forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognised in accordance with HKAS 36 to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

When a group entity transacts with a joint venture of the Group (such as a sale or contribution of assets), profits and losses resulting from the transactions with a joint venture are recognised in the Group’s consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interests in the joint venture that are not related to the Group.

Available-for-sale equity investments

Available-for-sale equity investments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured and derivatives that a linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity investments are measured at cost less any identified impairment losses at the end of the reporting period.

In the current interim period, the Group has applied, for the first time, the following amendments to HKFRSs issued by Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“ HKICPA ”) that are relevant for the preparation of the Group’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to HKAS 1 Disclosure Initiative
Amendments to HKAS 16 and HKAS 38 Clarifcation of Acceptable Method of Depreciation
and Amortisation
Amendments to HKAS 16 and HKAS 41 Agriculture: Bearer Plants
Amendments to HKFRS 10 Investment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception
and HKFRS 12 and HKAS 28
Amendments to HKFRS 11 Accounting for Acquisitions of Interest in Joint Operations
Amendments to HKFRSs Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2012–2014 Cycle

Except for changing the ordering of certain note giving prominence to the areas of the Group’s activities which are considered more relevant to the understanding of the Group’s operating activities and regrouping of certain items to further enhance the understand ability of certain line items presented on the condensed consolidated financial statements, the application of these amendments to HKFRSs in the current interim period has had no material effect on the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and/or disclosures set out in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

  • (b) On 23 June 2015, Beijing Wisdom Media entered into a capital increase framework contract with Nie Xuezhen, Kong Fei, Gu Shufeng and Zhang Xiaodong, who are the then shareholders of CoolplayClub, whereas Beijing Wisdom Media will make capital contribution into CoolplayClub. As at 31 December 2015, Beijing Wisdom Media has paid the capital contribution amounting to RMB6,000,000 to CoolplayClub. The registration of Beijing Wisdom becoming shareholder of CoolplayClub is completed during the current period. As Beijing Wisdom Media had no intention to sell the investment in near future and the percentage of equity interest in Coolplay Club is 7.5%, the investment is recognised as available-for-sale financial assets which were measured at cost less any identified impairment losses at the end of the reporting period as the range of reasonable fair value estimates is so significant that the directors the Company (the “ Directors ”) are of the opinion that the fair value cannot be reliably measured.

14. LONG-TERM RECEIVABLE

In March 2016, Wisdom Events Operation and Management (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd., (“ ZMWH ”), a whollyowned subsidiary of the Group, signed an agreement with Beijing Enbiou Sports Management Co., Ltd. (the “ NBL Company ”) to obtain the exclusive commercial right of 2016-2019 National Men’s Basketball League (“ Exclusive Commercial Right ”) without geographical limitation from NBL Company for total consideration of RMB140,000,000. Other terms in the agreement including (i) ZMWH is obliged to make a payment of RMB3.6 million (the “ Consideration ”) and in return 20% equity interest in NBL Company is transferred to ZMWH; (ii) ZMWH has the right to appoint one out of five of the directors of NBL Company; (iii) ZMWH is not subjected to share any profits or losses and net assets of the NBL Company: (iv) ZMWH has the priority right to extend the Exclusive Commercial Right upon expiry thereof; (v) ZMWH cannot dispose 20% the equity interest during the period of Exclusive Commercial Right; (vi) If ZMWH does not extend the Exclusive Commercial Right upon expiry in 2019, ZMWH should transfer back the 20% equity interest of NBL Company at consideration of RMB3.6 million plus a compounded internal rate of return of 10% per annum. Based on the substance of the arrangement, the directors of the Company consider the Group’s investment in NBL Company possesses the economic characteristics and risks of a debt instrument rather than an equity instrument. Accordingly, the investment is accounted for as long term receivable and subsequently measured at amortised cost.

15. INTEREST IN A JOINT VENTURE

On 7 April 2016, Beijing Wisdom Culture Co., Ltd., (“ BJWSD ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Group, entered into the equity transfer agreement (“ ETA ”) with Shenzhen ZM Sports Stadium Investment Co., Ltd. (“ SZZM ”) and SEG Property (“ SEG ”), pursuant to which SZZM transferred 55% equity interest in Shenzhen SEG ZM Sports Culture Development Co., Ltd. (“ SEG ZM ”) to BJWSD at RMB27.5 million. SZZM is controlled by Ms. Ren Wen, a controlling shareholder of the Company. Immediately after the execution of ETA, SZZM, BJWSD and SEG held 10%, 55% and 35% equity interest in SEG ZM, respectively. The Articles of Association specifies that at least two-third shareholding are required to approve for decision on directing the relevant activities of SEG ZM. Even though BJWSD held 55% equity interest in SEG ZM, based on the current shareholding structure, decisions about relevant activities require mutual consent of the Group and SEG and hence in the opinion of the directors of the Company, the Group’s interest in SEG ZM is accounted for as a joint venture.

24.3 Fair value

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:

  • Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1).

  • Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (Level 2).

  • Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (Level 3)

The following table presents the Group’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at 30 June 2016 and 31 December 2015:

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.

24. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(continued)

24.3 Fair value (continued)

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market data where it is available 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. Financial instrument included in level 2 mainly include the Group’s investment in HuaAn Fund (Note 19).

If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

The Group’s finance department leads the valuations of financial assets required for financial reporting purposes, including level 3 fair values. The financial department reports directly to the chief financial officer (CFO). Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the CFO and finance department at least once half a year.

The valuation technique is discounted cash flow. Future cash flows are estimated and discounted using the expected yield rate set with reference to the benchmark yield rate of the financial investment products of banks.

As of 30 June 2016, Beijing Wisdom Media Holding Co., Ltd. (“ Beijing Wisdom Media ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Limited Partnership Agreement (“ LPA ”) with SCG and Hongtu Jingshan, and has invested RMB30,000,000 into the Fund. Since the Fund has not commenced any major operations as of 30 June 2016, the level 3 fair value of this investment approximated the value of the cash contribution made.
