As at the Latest Practicable Date, the relevant consideration has not been settled.
The total consideration for the Acquisition and the Further Acquisition, comprising the Aggregate Consideration and the consideration in respect of the Further Acquisition, amounts to RMB1,960.24 million.
Basis of determination of the Aggregate Consideration
The Aggregate Consideration was determined through an auction held by Wuxi Equity Exchange at which the Company successfully bid the Target Assets at a base bidding price of RMB1,883.74 million, which was based on a valuation made by Wuxi Baoguang Asset Valuation Company Limited* (無錫寶光資產評估有限公司) commissioned by the Vendors. Details of the valuation are set out in the following table:

| Total assets | 1,848,237 | 418,462 | 1,117,418 | |

| Net assets | 548,716 | 90,684 | (136,636) |
As advised by the PRC legal adviser of the Company, the auction and its process are regulated by the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC and the auction is a common practice for transactions of similar kind in Wuxi, Jiangsu.
The auction was carried out according to the standard procedures and terms determined by Wuxi Equity Exchange as a third party independent of the Vendors and the Purchaser. The information of the Target Assets was published on the website of Wuxi Equity Exchange from 24 October 2017 to 20 November 2017. The Target Assets were offered for sale from 14 December 2017 to 18 January 2018, during which Wuxi Equity Exchange has received a proposal from one potential bidder, i.e. the Purchaser.
Asset-based approach was adopted in the valuation. According to the valuer commissioned by the Vendors, market approach was not adopted as the valuer was unable to obtain comparable sales evidence in the relevant market at the time of the valuation. Income approach was not adopted because on the date of the valuation, the valuer was unable to predict with sufficient certainty the income potential, given that at the relevant

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
time the development of the property projects was uncertain. Having considered (i) the factors considered by the valuer for the selection of valuation methodology; and (ii) the circumstances of the property development projects held by the Target Companies on the date of valuation by Wuxi Baoguang Asset Valuation Company Limited* (無錫寶光資產評 估有限公司), which are different from the circumstances on the date of the valuation by AVISTA, the Board is of the view that the valuation methodology adopted is fair and reasonable.
The valuation was prepared on the assumptions that: (i) there is no material adverse change in the political, economic, and social environment or the current laws and regulations and government policies in Jiangsu, as well as the management of the Target Companies; (ii) there is no material breach of the relevant laws and regulations by the Target Companies which adversely affect the development and prospect of the Target Companies; (iii) the Vendors and the Purchaser entered into contract voluntarily in an open and informed market; and (iv) the properties will be used for the purposes for which the properties are designed and built, or to which they are currently adapted. The Board is of the view that the key assumptions adopted for the valuation commissioned by the Vendors, which are comparable to that adopted by AVISTA, are fair and reasonable.
Basis of determination of the consideration in respect of the Further Acquisition
The consideration in respect of the Further Acquisition was determined based on the amount of debt in the sum of RMB76.50 million being the shareholder loan due to Yixing Zhongtang payable by Baohua Jiangyin. The right to such debt shall be assigned on the same date from Yixing Zhongtang to the Purchaser upon receipt of the consideration in respect of the Further Acquisition from the Purchaser.
The Directors consider that the Aggregate Consideration and the consideration in respect of the Further Acquisition are fair and reasonable and on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.
As one or more of the applicable percentage ratios in relation to the Acquisition and the Further Acquisition as contemplated under the Acquisition Agreements and the Further Acquisition Agreement, respectively, are more than 25%, and in order to ascertain the market value of the assets held by the Target Companies, the Company has, after the Aggregate Consideration had been determined through the auction, engaged AVISTA to conduct valuation on the assets held by each of the Target Companies. The name and qualification of the Independent Valuer is set out in Appendix VI to this circular.
The Board, having reviewed the background of AVISTA, are of the view that AVISTA is competent in performing the valuation. The Board has considered the experience of the personnel of AVISTA who is experienced in conducting financial reporting valuation projects and advising on corporate finance. The Board has also considered that the diverse team of professionals of AVISTA comes from globally-renowned valuation firms, investment banks, consulting firms and international accounting firms with CFA, HKICPA, CPA Australia, and MHKIS qualifications. The Board has also considered the curriculum vitae of Mr. Oswald W Y Au, Director of AVISTA, a summary of which is provided on page V-5 of the Circular.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The Acquisition and the Further Acquisition will enable the Enlarged Group to hold a majority of the equity interests in the Target Companies. In view of the location of the land and properties held by the Target Companies, the Board considers that the Acquisition and the Further Acquisition will offer a good opportunity for the Group to develop high-quality properties and replenish land banks in strategically important regions in the Yangtze River Delta area, the PRC with a view to bringing more investment return for the Shareholders. In particular:-
-
(i) the land held by Baohua Wuxi is located in the Binhu District of Wuxi, which is near the entrance and exit zone of Taihu Lake Tunnel (太湖隧道). According to the disclosure of government information by Wuxi Municipal People’s Government (無錫市人民政府), Taihu Lake Tunnel is expected to be completed in about December 2020. The Board considers that the completion and opening of Taihu Lak Tunnel and connection with the neighbouring highway network will boost the tourism in the nearby areas and bring appreciation potential to the land held by Baohua Wuxi and its residential development which has commenced in August 2018;
-
(ii) the composite building known as Wuai Renjia* (五愛人家) held by Wuxi Huiyuan is located in Liangxi District of Wuxi, which is within the core area of Wuxi. Leveraging on the strategic location of the properties and the demand for small-sized residential units within Wuxi, the Board expected to achieve a financial return given the trend of appreciation of property prices in Wuxi to the Group through the sale and/or lease of the properties; and
-
(iii) the Board considers that the residential development known as Cang Pin Yu Shan Wan (藏品敔山灣) in Jiangyin City, Jiangsu held by Baohua Jiangyin will generate promising sales revenue owing to the positive effect to the property market brought by Project 1310 (1310工程) in Jiangyin City, which aims at improving the city landscape through a series of construction projects and enhancement work.
In assessing whether the Acquisition and the Further Acquisition would offer an attractive return to the Company, the Directors had carried out independent work and obtained necessary information to enable the Board to reach an informed view on the nature of the assets of the Acquisition and the Further Acquisition including, among other things:
-
(i) obtained and reviewed the valuation of the property prepared by the Independent Valuer and the underlying valuation workings and assumptions;
-
(ii) conducted feasibility studies on the property development projects of the Target Companies to obtain a comprehensive view of, among others, the profitability and prospects of the property development projects;
-
(iii) obtained and reviewed the business plan of the Target Companies in respect of the development plan taken by the management of the Wuxi Huiyuan and Baohua Jiangyin for the two property development projects of Wuai Renjia (五愛人家) and Cang Pin Yu Shan Wan (藏品敔山灣);

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
-
(iv) obtaining legal advice on the title of the assets held by the Target Companies;
-
(v) obtained and reviewed the cash flow forecast of the aforesaid property development projects, assessed the calculation of the return on investment derived from the forecast, evaluated the reliability of the underlying data generated to prepare the forecast and determined whether there is adequate support for the assumptions underlying the forecast; and
-
(vi) considered the information, findings and recommendations made by the management of the Company regarding, among other things, the background for the Acquisition and the Further Acquisition and of the Target Companies, the basis of the major terms of the Acquisition Agreements and the Further Acquisition Agreement, the future operations of the Enlarged Group upon Completion and the completion of the Further Acquisition and so forth.
In particular, the Board was advised that:
-
(i) Each and every of the Target Companies have the legal right of the land use rights of the assets held by them respectively;
-
(ii) Baohua Wuxi has the right to transfer, lease, use and gift the parcel of land held by it;
-
(iii) Wuxi Huiyuan has the right to transfer and pledge the assets held by it, and the right to lease and use the same except units which have been legally leased out under 17 tenancy agreements; and
-
(iv) Baohua Jiangyin has the right to transfer, lease, pledge, use and gift the unsold portion of the assets held by it and has obtained relevant construction permission and approval including construction works commencement permits for its uncompleted construction works.
The Board, having reviewed the scope and the results of the site inspection and the title investigation, is of the view that the investigation is sufficient and is satisfied with such results.

In particular, in addition to the reasons stated above, the Board has taken into account the following reasons which, the Board considers, will outweigh the impairment loss arising from the acquisition of the Baohua Jiangyin:
-
(i) the market value and profitability of the development project of Baohua Wuxi upon its full completion according to the feasibility studies conducted by the Company;

The Company’s auditors shall review the Company’s impairment test of goodwill in the coming audit for the financial statements for the nine months ending 31 December 2018 in due course.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
5. MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE
On 27 June 2018 and 28 June 2018, the Company announced that, three statutory demands under section 178(1)(A) or 327(4)(a) of the Companies (Winding Up and Miscellaneous Provisions) Ordinance (Chapter 32, Laws of Hong Kong) were served on the Company on 26 June 2018 by the legal representative of a creditor to demand the Company to pay three outstanding debts in the amounts of RMB23,016,724.06 (equivalent to approximately HK$27,160,000), RMB25,119,487.68 (equivalent to approximately HK$29,641,000) and RMB230,016,817.40 (equivalent to approximately HK$271,420,000), respectively, within 3 weeks after service of the said statutory demands to pay the said debts. If the Company fails to repay the said debts within the said 3-week period, the said creditor may present a winding-up petition against the Company. The said debts under the said statutory demands were incurred by Hareon Solar Technology Co., Ltd. (海潤光伏 股份有限公司) and Jiangyin Hareon Solar Energy Electrical Power Co., Ltd. (江陰海潤太陽 能電力有限公司), which was guaranteed by the Company pursuant to the financial guarantee entered into by the Company on 19 October 2016 in favour of the said creditor, in respect of obligations and liabilities of the said two debtors under the restructuring documents in the amount of approximately RMB383,361,000.
As disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 16 July 2018, it was confirmed by the said creditor in writing that the creditor had received the payment of RMB278,153,029.14 for settling the outstanding debts owed by the said debtors to the said creditor, and that the Company is released from the guarantee obligation for the said sum and the statutory demands shall be withdrawn by the creditor. Accordingly, the Company believes that no winding up petition would be presented against the Company pursuant to the statutory demands.
Save as the disclosure made by the Company’s announcements dated 15 June 2018 and 27 June 2018, respectively, the Directors were not aware of any other material adverse change in the financial or trading position of the Group since 31 March 2018, being the date to which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Group were made up.

Introduction
We report on the historical financial information of Baohua Real Estates (Wuxi) Co., Limited (the “ Target Company A ”) set out on pages II(A)-4 to II(A)-22, which comprises the statements of financial position of the Target Company A as at 31 December 2015, 2016 and 2017 and 31 May 2018, and the statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the statements of changes in equity and the statements of cash flows for each of the three years ended 31 December 2015, 2016 and 2017 and five months ended 2018 (the “ Relevant Periods ”) and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (together, the “ Historical Financial Information* ”). The Historical Financial Information forms an integral part of this report, which has been prepared for inclusion in the investment circular of the Company dated 24 September 2018 in connection with the proposed acquisition of the entire equity interest in the Target Company A.
Directors’ responsibility for the Historical Financial Information
The directors of the Target Company A are responsible for the preparation of Historical Financial Information that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of Historical Financial Information that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Reporting accountants’ responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Historical Financial Information and to report our opinion to you. We conducted our work in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Investment Circular Reporting Engagements 200 “Accountants’ Reports on Historical Financial Information in Investment Circulars” issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “ HKICPA ”). This standard requires that we comply with ethical standards and plan and perform our work to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Financial Information is free from material misstatement.
– – II(A)-1
APPENDIX II(A)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA WUXI
Our work involved performing procedures to obtain evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Financial Information. The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountants’ judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the Historical Financial Information, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the reporting accountants consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of Historical Financial Information that give a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information in order to design procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Our work also included evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Historical Financial Information.
We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Historical Financial Information gives, for the purposes of the accountants’ report, a true and fair view of the Target Company A’s financial position as at 31 December 2015, 2016 and 2017 and 31 May 2018 of the Target Company A’s financial performance and cash flows for the Relevant Periods in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information.
Review of stub period comparative financial information
We have reviewed the stub period comparative financial information of the Target Company A which comprises the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the five months ended 31 May 2017 and other explanatory information (the “ Stub Period Comparative Financial Information ”). The directors of the Target Company A are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information based on our 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 HKICPA. A review 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. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information, for the purposes of the accountants’ report, is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information.

Report on matters under the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

These conditions indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Target Company A’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Adjustments
In preparing the Historical Financial Information, no adjustments to the Underlying Financial Statements as defined on page II(A)-4 have been made.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 5 below which conform with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRSs”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. In addition, the Historical Financial Information includes the applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
3. GOING CONCERN BASIS
The Target Company A incurred loss of RMB19,838,000 for the period ended 31 May 2018 and as at 31 May 2018, the Target Company A had net current liabilities and net liabilities of RMB11,906,000 and RMB11,906,000 respectively. These conditions indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Target Company A’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared on a going concern basis. In preparing the Historical Financial Information, the directors of the Target Company A have reviewed the Target Company A’s financial and liquidity position, and taken into consideration the following factors:
-
if the Target Company A becomes a subsidiary of Huajun International Group Limited, Huajun International Group Limited will make available to the Target Company A whatever financial support is required to enable the Target Company A to meet in full its financial obligations as they fall due for a period of twelve months from the date of this Historical Financial Information; and
-
cost control measures; and
-
possible additional external funding.
The directors of the Target Company A believe that, taking into account the above factors, the Target Company A will be able to meet in full its financial obligations as and when they fall due for the foreseeable future, and accordingly, have prepared the Historical Financial Information on a going concern basis.
4. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED HONG KONG FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
The Target Company A had adopted all the new and revised HKFRSs that are relevant to its operations and effective for its accounting year beginning on 1 January 2018. HKFRSs comprise Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards; Hong Kong Accounting Standards and Interpretations.
The Target Company A has not applied the new and revised HKFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared under the historical cost convention. The Historical Financial Information is presented in Renminbi (“ RMB ”) and all figures are rounded to the nearest thousand (RMB’000) except when otherwise indicated.
The preparation of the Historical Financial Information in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain key assumptions and estimates. It also requires the directors to exercise its judgements in the process of applying the accounting policies. The areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these Historical Financial Information, are disclosed in note 6 to the Historical Financial Information.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information are set out below.
Properties for sale under development
Properties for sale under development are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs include acquisition costs, prepaid land lease payments, construction costs, borrowing costs capitalised and other direct costs attributable to such properties. Net realisable value is determined by reference to sale proceeds received after the reporting period less selling expenses, or by estimates based on prevailing market condition. On completion, the properties are reclassified to properties held for sale at the then carrying amount.
Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position when the Target Company A becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire; the Target Company A transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets; or the Target Company A neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets but has not retained control on the assets. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets
Financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis where the purchase or sale of an asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially recognised at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs except in the case of investments at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of investments at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Financial assets of the Target Company A are classified as financial assets at amortised cost.
– – II(A)-10
APPENDIX II(A)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA WUXI
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets (including trade and other receivables) are classified under this category if they satisfy both of the following conditions:
-
the assets are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
the contractual terms of the assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less loss allowance for expected credit losses.
Loss allowances for expected credit losses
The Target Company A recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost. Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of a default occurring as the weights.
At the end of each reporting period, the Target Company A measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the expected life of that financial instrument (“lifetime expected credit losses”) for trade receivables, contract assets and lease receivables, or if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition.
If, at the end of the reporting period, the credit risk on a financial instrument (other than trade receivables, contract assets and lease receivables) has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Target Company A measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to the portion of lifetime expected credit losses that represents the expected credit losses that result from default events on that financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting period.
The amount of expected credit losses or reversal to adjust the loss allowance at the end of the reporting period to the required amount is recognised in profit or loss as an impairment gain or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents represent cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Target Company A’s cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument under HKFRSs. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Target Company A after deducting all of its liabilities. The accounting policies adopted for specific financial liabilities and equity instruments are set out below.
Borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Target Company A has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
– – II(A)-11
APPENDIX II(A)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA WUXI
Other payables
Other payables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the Target Company A are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer with reference to the customary business practices and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. For a contract where the period between the payment by the customer and the transfer of the promised product or service exceeds one year, the consideration is adjusted for the effect of a significant financing component.
The Target Company A recognises revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. Depending on the terms of a contract and the laws that apply to that contract, a performance obligation can be satisfied over time or at a point in time. A performance obligation is satisfied over time if:
-
the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Target Company A’s performance;
-
the Target Company A’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or
-
the Target Company A’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Target Company A and the Target Company A has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
If a performance obligation is satisfied over time, revenue is recognised by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. Otherwise, revenue is recognised at a point in time when the customer obtains control of the product or service.
Other revenue
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.
Employee benefits
- (a) Employee leave entitlements
Employee entitlements to annual leave and long service leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave and long service leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the end of the reporting period.
Employee entitlements to sick leave and maternity leave are not recognised until the time of
leave.
– – II(A)-12
APPENDIX II(A)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA WUXI
(b) Pension obligations
The Target Company A participates in a defined contribution retirement scheme organised by the government in the PRC. The Target Company A is required to contribute a specific percentage of the payroll of its employees to the retirement scheme. The contributions are charged to profit or loss as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the retirement scheme. No forfeited contributions may be used by the employers to reduce the existing level of contributions.
(c) Termination benefits
Termination benefits are recognised at the earlier of the dates when the Target Company A can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Target Company A recognises restructuring costs and involves the payment of termination benefits.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
To the extent that funds are borrowed generally and used for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on that asset. The capitalisation rate is the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the Target Company A that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
Taxation
Income tax represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit recognised in profit or loss because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Target Company A’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Historical Financial Information and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in a subsidiary, except where the Target Company A is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
– – II(A)-13
APPENDIX II(A)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA WUXI
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Target Company A expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Target Company A intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

APPENDIX II(A)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA WUXI
Impairment of assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Target Company A reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of any impairment loss. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Target Company A estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal 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 the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognised for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Target Company A has a present 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 expenditures 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 is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow is remote.
Events after the reporting period
Events after the reporting period that provide additional information about the Target Company A’s position at the end of the reporting period or those that indicate the going concern assumption is not appropriate are adjusting events and are reflected in the Historical Financial Information. Events after the reporting period that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the Historical Financial Information when material.
6. CRITICAL JUDGMENTS AND KEY ESTIMATES
Critical judgements in applying accounting policies
In the process of applying the accounting policies, the directors of the Target Company A have made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Historical Financial Information.
(a) Going concern basis
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared on a going concern basis, the validity of which depends upon the factors explained in Note 3 to the Historical Financial Information.
– – II(A)-15
APPENDIX II(A)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA WUXI
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the Relevant Periods, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below.
(a) Determination of net realisable value of properties for sale under development
Properties for sale under development for sale and completed properties for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value with an aggregate carrying amount of RMB748,913,000, RMB773,420,000, RMB815,735,000 and RMB815,735,000 as at 31 December 2015, 2016, 2017 and 31 May 2018 respectively. Cost, including the cost of land, development expenditure, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Target Company A’s accounting policy and other attributable expenses, are allocated to each unit in each phase based on sellable gross floor area, using the weighted average method. The net realisable value is the estimated selling price less estimated selling expenses and estimated cost of completion (if any), which are determined based on best available information. Where there is any decrease in the estimated selling price arising from any changes to the property market conditions in the PRC, there may be write-down on the properties for sale under development.
7. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Target Company A’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, and interest rate risk. The Target Company A’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Target Company A’s financial performance.
(a) Foreign currency risk
The Target Company A has minimal exposure to foreign currency risk as most of its business transactions, assets and liabilities are principally denominated in Renminbi. The Target Company A currently does not have a foreign currency hedging policy in respect of foreign currency transactions, assets and liabilities. The Target Company A will monitor its foreign currency exposure closely and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.
(b) Credit risk
The carrying amounts of the bank and cash balances included in the statements of financial position represent the Target Company A’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to the Target Company A’s financial assets.
The Target Company A has no significant concentrations of credit risk.
The credit risk on bank and cash balances is limited because the counterparties are banks with good reputation.
(c) Liquidity risk
The Target Company A’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term. All of the Target Company A’s financial liabilities are due within one year.
(d) Interest rate risk
As the Target Company A has no significant interest-bearing assets and liabilities, the Target Company A’s operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.
The Target Company A’s amount due to shareholders and a related company bear interests at fixed interest rates and therefore are subject to fair value interest rate risk.

Introduction
We report on the historical financial information of Wuxi Huiyuan Real Estate Co., Limited (the “ Target Company B ”) set out on pages II(B)-4 to II(B)-34, which comprises the statements of financial position of the Target Company B as at 31 December 2015, 2016, 2017 and 31 May 2018, and the statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the statements of changes in equity and the statements of cash flows for each of the three years ended 31 December 2015, 2016 and 2017 and five months ended 31 May 2018 (the “ Relevant Periods ”) and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (together, the “ Historical Financial Information* ”). The Historical Financial Information forms an integral part of this report, which has been prepared for inclusion in the investment circular of the Company dated 24 September 2018 in connection with the proposed acquisition of the entire equity interest in the Target Company B.
Directors’ responsibility for the Historical Financial Information
The directors of the Target Company B are responsible for the preparation of Historical Financial Information that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of Historical Financial Information that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Reporting accountants’ responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Historical Financial Information and to report our opinion to you. We conducted our work in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Investment Circular Reporting Engagements 200 “Accountants’ Reports on Historical Financial Information in Investment Circulars” issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “ HKICPA ”). This standard requires that we comply with ethical standards and plan and perform our work to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Financial Information is free from material misstatement.
– – II(B)-1
APPENDIX II(B)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
Our work involved performing procedures to obtain evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Financial Information. The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountants’ judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the Historical Financial Information, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the reporting accountants consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of Historical Financial Information that give a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information in order to design procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Our work also included evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Historical Financial Information.
We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Historical Financial Information gives, for the purposes of the accountants’ report, a true and fair view of the Target Company B’s financial position as at 31 December 2015, 2016 and 2017 and 31 May 2018 of the Target Company B’s financial performance and cash flows for the Relevant Periods in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information.
Review of stub period comparative financial information
We have reviewed the stub period comparative financial information of the Target Company B which comprises the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the five months ended 31 May 2017 and other explanatory information (the “ Stub Period Comparative Financial Information ”). The directors of the Target Company B are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information based on our 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 HKICPA. A review 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. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information, for the purposes of the accountants’ report, is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to note 3 to the Historical Financial Information which mentions that as at 31 May 2018, the Target Company B had net current liabilities of RMB243,410,000. This condition indicates a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Target Company B’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
NOTES TO HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The Target Company B was incorporated in the PRC with limited liability on 24 May 2007. The address of its registered office and principal place of business is 無錫市南長區五愛家園85號.
The Target Company B is principally engaged in real estate associated business in the PRC.
In the opinion of the directors of the Target Company B, as at 31 May 2018, Wuxi City Development Group Co., Limited (無錫城市發展集團有限公司) is the ultimate holding company of the Target Company B.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 5 below which conform with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“ HKFRSs ”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. In addition, the Historical Financial Information includes the applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
3. GOING CONCERN BASIS
As at 31 May 2018, the Target Company B has net current liabilities of RMB243,410,000. This condition indicates a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Target Company B’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared on a going concern basis. In preparing the Historical Financial Information, the directors of the Target Company B have reviewed the Target Company B’s financial and liquidity position, and taken into consideration the following factors:
-
if the Target Company B becomes a subsidiary of Huajun International Group Limited (formerly known as Huajun Holdings Limited), Huajun International Group Limited will make available to the Target Company B whatever financial support is required to enable the Target Company B to meet in full its financial obligations as they fall due for a period of twelve months from the date of this Historical Financial Information; and
-
cost control measures; and
-
possible additional external funding.
The directors of the Target Company B believe that, taking into account the above factors, the Target Company B will be able to meet in full its financial obligations as and when they fall due for the foreseeable future, and accordingly, have prepared the Historical Financial Information on a going concern basis.
4. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED HONG KONG FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
The Target Company B had adopted all the new and revised HKFRSs that are relevant to its operations and effective for its accounting year beginning on 1 January 2018. HKFRSs comprise Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards; Hong Kong Accounting Standards and Interpretations.
The Target Company B has not applied the new and revised HKFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective. The Target Company B has already commenced an assessment of the impact of these new and revised HKFRSs but is not yet in a position to state whether these new and revised HKFRSs would have a material impact on the results of operations and financial position of the Target Company B.

ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of investment properties which are carried at their fair values. The Historical Financial Information is presented in Renminbi (“ RMB ”) and all figures are rounded to the nearest thousand (RMB’000) except when otherwise indicated.
The preparation of Historical Financial Information in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain key assumptions and estimates. It also requires the directors to exercise its judgements in the process of applying the accounting policies. The areas involving critical judgements and areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these Historical Financial Information, are disclosed in Note 6 to the Historical Financial Information.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information are set out below.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Target Company B and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated at rates sufficient to write off their cost less their residual values over the estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The principal annual rates are as follows:
Furniture and fixtures 33.3% Computer and office equipment 33.3%
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
The gain or loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant asset, and is recognised in profit or loss.
Investment properties
Investment properties are land and/or buildings held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation. An investment property is measured initially at its cost including all direct costs attributable to the property.
After initial recognition, the investment properties are stated at their fair value based on valuation by an external independent valuer. Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of the investment properties are recognised in profit or loss for the period in which they arise.
The gain or loss on disposal of an investment property is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the property, and is recognised in profit or loss.
– – II(B)-11
APPENDIX II(B)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
Operating leases
Leases that do not substantially transfer to the lessees all the risks and rewards of ownership of assets are accounted for as operating leases. Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
Properties held for sale
Properties held for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs of properties include acquisition costs, prepaid land lease payments, construction costs, borrowing costs capitalised and other direct costs attributable to such properties. Net realisable value is determined by reference to sale proceeds received after the reporting period less selling expenses, or by estimates based on prevailing market condition.
Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position when the Target Company B becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire; the Target Company B transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets; or the Target Company B neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets but has not retained control on the assets. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets
Financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis where the purchase or sale of an asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially recognised at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs except in the case of investments at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of investments at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Financial assets of the Target Company B are classified as financial assets at amortised cost.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets (including trade and other receivables) are classified under this category if they satisfy both of the following conditions:
-
the assets are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
the contractual terms of the assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less loss allowance for expected credit losses.
– – II(B)-12
APPENDIX II(B)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
Loss allowances for expected credit losses
The Target Company B recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost. Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of a default occurring as the weights.
At the end of each reporting period, the Target Company B measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the expected life of that financial instrument (“lifetime expected credit losses”) for trade receivables, contract assets and lease receivables, or if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition.
If, at the end of the reporting period, the credit risk on a financial instrument (other than trade receivables, contract assets and lease receivables) has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Target Company B measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to the portion of lifetime expected credit losses that represents the expected credit losses that result from default events on that financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting period.
The amount of expected credit losses or reversal to adjust the loss allowance at the end of the reporting period to the required amount is recognised in profit or loss as an impairment gain or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents represent cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Target Company B’s cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument under HKFRSs. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Target Company B after deducting all of its liabilities. The accounting policies adopted for specific financial liabilities and equity instruments are set out below.
Borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Target Company B has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

APPENDIX II(B)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the Target Company B are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer with reference to the customary business practices and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. For a contract where the period between the payment by the customer and the transfer of the promised product or service exceeds one year, the consideration is adjusted for the effect of a significant financing component.
The Target Company B recognises revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. Depending on the terms of a contract and the laws that apply to that contract, a performance obligation can be satisfied over time or at a point in time. A performance obligation is satisfied over time if:
-
the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Target Company B’s performance;
-
the Target Company B’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or
-
the Target Company B’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Target Company B and the Target Company B has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
If a performance obligation is satisfied over time, revenue is recognised by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. Otherwise, revenue is recognised at a point in time when the customer obtains control of the product or service.
Revenue from sale of properties in the ordinary course of business is recognised when the respective properties have been completed and delivered to the buyers. Delivery takes place on the date when the property buyers sign the delivery documents. Deposits and installments received from purchasers prior to meeting the above criteria for revenue recognition are included in the statement of financial position as “Contract liabilities” under current liabilities.
Other revenue
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.
Rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

APPENDIX II(B)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
Employee benefits
(a) Employee leave entitlements
Employee entitlements to annual leave and long service leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave and long service leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the end of the reporting period.
Employee entitlements to sick leave and maternity leave are not recognised until the time of leave.
(b) Pension obligations
The Target Company B participates in a defined contribution retirement scheme organised by the government in the PRC. The Target Company B is required to contribute a specific percentage of the payroll of its employees to the retirement scheme. The contributions are charged to profit or loss as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the retirement scheme. No forfeited contributions may be used by the employers to reduce the existing level of contributions.
(c) Termination benefits
Termination benefits are recognised at the earlier of the dates when the Target Company B can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Target Company B recognises restructuring costs and involves the payment of termination benefits.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
To the extent that funds are borrowed generally and used for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on that asset. The capitalisation rate is the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the Target Company B that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

APPENDIX II(B)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
Taxation
Income tax represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit recognised in profit or loss because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Target Company B’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Historical Financial Information and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in a subsidiary, except where the Target Company B is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Target Company B expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
For the purposes of measuring deferred tax for investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the carrying amounts of such properties are presumed to be recovered through sale, unless the presumption is rebutted. The presumption is rebutted when the investment property is depreciable and is held within a business model of the Target Company B whose business objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. If the presumption is rebutted, deferred tax for such investment properties are measured based on the expected manner as to how the properties will be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Target Company B intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

PRC land appreciation tax (“LAT”)
LAT is levied at progressive rates ranging from 30% to 60% on the appreciation of land value, being the proceeds from sales of properties less deductible expenditures including land costs, borrowing costs, business taxes and all property development expenditures. LAT is recognised as an income tax expense. LAT paid is a deductible expense for PRC enterprise income tax purposes.

ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
Impairment of assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Target Company B reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets except investment properties to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of any impairment loss. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Target Company B estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal 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 the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognised for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Target Company B has a present 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 expenditures 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 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 is remote.
Events after the reporting period
Events after the reporting period that provide additional information about the Target Company B’s position at the end of the reporting period or those that indicate the going concern assumption is not appropriate are adjusting events and are reflected in the Historical Financial Information. Events after the reporting period that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the Historical Financial Information when material.

6. CRITICAL JUDGMENTS AND KEY ESTIMATES
Critical judgements in applying accounting policies
In the process of applying the accounting policies, the directors of the Target Company B have made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Historical Financial Information.
(a) Going concern basis
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared on a going concern basis, the validity of which depends upon the factors explained in note 3 to the Historical Financial Information.
(b) Deferred tax for investment properties
For the purposes of measuring deferred tax for investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the directors have reviewed the Target Company B’s investment property portfolios and concluded that the Target Company B’s investment properties are held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment properties over time, rather than through sale. Therefore, in determining the Target Company B’s deferred tax for investment properties, the directors of the Target Company B have determined that the presumption that investment properties measured using the fair value model are recovered through sale.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the Relevant Periods, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below.
(a) Fair values of investment properties
The Target Company B appointed an independent professional valuer to assess the fair values of the investment properties. In determining the fair values, the valuer has utilised a method of valuation which involves certain estimates. The directors have exercised their judgement and are satisfied that the method of valuation is reflective of the current market conditions.
(b) Land appreciation tax
The Target Company B is subject to land appreciation tax in the PRC. However, the implementation and settlement of the tax varies amongst different tax jurisdictions in various cities of the PRC and certain property development projects of the Target Company B have not finalised their land appreciation tax calculations and payments with local tax authorities in the PRC. Accordingly, significant judgment is required in determining the amount of land appreciation and its related income tax provisions. The Target Company B recognised the land appreciation tax based on management’s best estimates. The final tax outcome could be different from the amounts that were initially recorded, and these differences will impact the income tax expense and the related income tax provisions in the periods in which such tax is finalised with local tax authorities.

APPENDIX II(B)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
- (c) Determination of net realisable value of property held-for-sale
Property held-for-sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value with an aggregate carrying amount of RMB78,160,000, RMB38,674,000, RMB30,651,000 and RMB30,651,000 as at 31 December 2015, 2016, 2017 and 31 May 2018 respectively. Cost, including the cost of land, development expenditure, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Target Company B’s accounting policy and other attributable expenses, are allocated to each unit in each phase based on sellable gross floor area, using the weighted average method. The net realisable value is the estimated selling price less estimated selling expenses and estimated cost of completion (if any), which are determined based on best available information. Where there is any decrease in the estimated selling price arising from any changes to the property market conditions in the PRC, there may be write-down on the properties under development for sale and completed properties for sale.
7. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Target Company B’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. The Target Company B’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Target Company B’s financial performance.
(a) Foreign currency risk
The Target Company B has minimal exposure to foreign currency risk as most of its business transactions, assets and liabilities are principally denominated in Renminbi. The Target Company B currently does not have a foreign currency hedging policy in respect of foreign currency transactions, assets and liabilities. The Target Company B will monitor its foreign currency exposure closely and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.
(b) Credit risk
The carrying amounts of the prepayments, deposits and other receivables, amount due from a shareholder, amount due from a related company and bank and cash balances included in the statements of financial position represent the Target Company B’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to the Target Company B’s financial assets.
The Target Company B has no significant concentration of credit risk.
It has policies in place to ensure that sales are made to customers with an appropriate credit history.
Amount due from a shareholder and amount due from a related company are closely monitored by the directors.
The credit risk on bank and cash balances is limited because the counterparties are banks with good reputation.
The Target Company B considers whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk of financial assets on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period by comparing the risk of a default occurring as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information. Especially the following information is used:
-
internal credit rating;
-
external credit rating (if available);
– actual or expected significant adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the borrower’s ability to meet its obligations;
– – II(B)-20
APPENDIX II(B)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF WUXI HUIYUAN
actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the borrower;
-
significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same borrower;
-
significant changes in the value of the collateral or in the quality of guarantees or credit enhancements; and
-
significant changes in the expected performance and behaviour of the borrower, including changes in the payment status of borrowers.
A significant increase in credit risk is presumed if a debtor is more than 30 days past due in making a contractual payment. A default on a financial asset is when the counterparty fails to make contractual payments within 60 days of when they fall due.
Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Target Company B. The Target Company B normally categorises a loan or receivable for write off when a debtor fails to make contractual payments greater than 360 days past due. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Target Company B, if practicable and economical, continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due.
(c) Liquidity risk
The Target Company B’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term. All of the Target Company B’s financial liabilities are due within one year.
(d) Interest rate risk
As the Target Company B has no significant interest-bearing assets and liabilities, the Target Company B’s operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.
The Target Company B’s exposure to the cash flow interest rate risk relates primarily to the interest-bearing borrowings with floating interest rates. The effective interest rates and terms of repayment of the interest-bearing borrowings of the Target Company B are disclosed in Note 23 to the Historical Financial Information.
A reasonable possible change of 10 basis points in interest rates would have no material impact on the Target Company B’s loss and equity for the Relevant period.

(f) Fair values
The carrying amounts of the Target Company B’s financial assets and financial liabilities as reflected in the statements of financial position approximate their respective fair values.
8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following disclosures of fair value measurements use a fair value hierarchy that categorises into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value:
Level 1 inputs: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Target Company B can access at the measurement date.
Level 2 inputs: inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The Target Company B’s policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of any of the three levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.
- (a) Disclosures of level in fair value hierarchy at 31 December 2015, 2016, 2017 and 31 May 2018:

The total gains or losses recognised in profit or loss are presented in fair value change of investment properties in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
- (c) Disclosure of valuation process used by the Target Company B and valuation techniques and inputs used in fair value measurements at 31 December 2015, 2016, 2017 and 31 May 2018:
The Target Company B’s financial controller is responsible for the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities required for financial reporting purposes, including level 3 fair value measurements. The financial controller reports directly to the Board of Directors for these fair value measurements. Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the financial controller and the Board of Directors at least twice a year.
For level 3 fair value measurements, the Target Company B will normally engage external valuation experts with the recognised professional qualifications and recent experience to perform the valuations.
The valuations of investment properties in the PRC were based on the income capitalisation approach which capitalised the net income of the properties and takes into account the significant adjustments on term yield to account for the risk upon reversion.

Introduction
We report on the historical financial information of Baohua Real Estates (Jiangyin) Co., Limited * (the “ Target Company C ”) set out on pages II(C)-4 to II(C)-31, which comprises the statements of financial position of the Target Company C as at 31 December 2015, 2016, 2017 and 31 May 2018, and the statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the statements of changes in equity and the statements of cash flows for each of the three years ended 31 December 2015, 2016 and 2017 and five months ended 31 May 2018 (the “ Relevant Periods ”) and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (together, the “ Historical Financial Information ”). The Historical Financial Information forms an integral part of this report, which has been prepared for inclusion in the investment circular of the Company dated 24 September 2018 in connection with the proposed acquisition of the entire 55% equity interest in the Target Company C.
Directors’ responsibility for the Historical Financial Information
The directors of the Target Company C are responsible for the preparation of Historical Financial Information that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of Historical Financial Information that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Reporting accountants’ responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Historical Financial Information and to report our opinion to you. We conducted our work in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Investment Circular Reporting Engagements 200 “Accountants’ Reports on Historical Financial Information in Investment Circulars” issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “ HKICPA ”). This standard requires that we comply with ethical standards and plan and perform our work to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Financial Information is free from material misstatement.
– – II(C)-1
APPENDIX II(C)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN
Our work involved performing procedures to obtain evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Financial Information. The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountants’ judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the Historical Financial Information, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the reporting accountants consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of Historical Financial Information that give a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information in order to design procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Our work also included evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Historical Financial Information.
We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Historical Financial Information gives, for the purposes of the accountants’ report, a true and fair view of the Target Company C’s financial position as at 31 December 2015, 2016, 2017 and 31 May 2018 and of the Target Company C’s financial performance and cash flows for the Relevant Periods in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information.
Review of stub period comparative financial information
We have reviewed the stub period comparative financial information of the Target Company C which comprises the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the five months ended 31 May 2017 and other explanatory information (the “Stub Period Comparative Financial Information”). The directors of the Target Company C are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information based on our 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 HKICPA. A review 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. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Stub Period Comparative Financial Information, for the purposes of the accountants’ report, is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of preparation and presentation set out in Note 2 to the Historical Financial Information.

APPENDIX II(C)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN

These conditions indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Target Company C’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

The Target Company C is principally engaged in real estate associated business in the PRC.
In the opinion of the directors of the Target Company C, as at 31 May 2018, Wuxi City Development Group Co., Limited (無錫城市發展集團有限公司) is the ultimate holding company of the Target Company C.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 5 below which conform with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“ HKFRSs ”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. In addition, the Historical Financial Information includes the applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
3. GOING CONCERN BASIS
The Target Company C incurred loss of RMB3,176,000 for the period ended 31 May 2018 and as at 31 May 2018, the Target Company C had net current liabilities and net liabilities of RMB478,349,000 and RMB478,196,000 respectively. These conditions indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Target Company C’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared on a going concern basis. In preparing the Historical Financial Information, the directors of the Target Company C have reviewed the Target Company C’s financial and liquidity position, and taken into consideration the following factors:
-
if the Target Company C becomes a subsidiary of Huajun International Group Limited, Huajun International Group Limited will make available to the Target Company C whatever financial support is required to enable the Target Company C to meet in full its financial obligations as they fall due for a period of twelve months from the date of this Historical Financial Information; and
-
cost control measures; and
-
possible additional external funding.
The directors of the Target Company C believe that, taking into account the above factors, the Target Company C will be able to meet in full its financial obligations as and when they fall due for the foreseeable future, and accordingly, have prepared the Historical Financial Information on a going concern basis.
4. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED HONG KONG FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
The Target Company C had adopted all the new and revised HKFRSs that are relevant to its operations and effective for its accounting year beginning on 1 January 2018. HKFRSs comprise Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards; Hong Kong Accounting Standards and Interpretations.
The Target Company C has not applied the new and revised HKFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective. The Target Company C has already commenced an assessment of the impact of these new and revised HKFRSs but is not yet in a position to state whether these new and revised HKFRSs would have a material effect on the results of operations and financial position of the Target Company C.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared under the historical cost convention. The Historical Financial Information is presented in Renminbi (“ RMB ”) which is the Target Company C's functional and presentation currency and all figures are rounded to the nearest thousand (RMB’000) except when otherwise indicated.
The preparation of Historical Financial Information in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain key assumptions and estimates. It also requires the directors to exercise its judgements in the process of applying the accounting policies. The areas involving critical judgements and areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these Historical Financial Information, are disclosed in note 6 to the Historical Financial Information.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information are set out below.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Target Company C and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated at rates sufficient to write off their cost less their residual values over the estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The principal annual rates are as follows:
| Furniture and fixtures | 20% |
|---|---|
| Motor vehicle | 25% |
| Computer and office equipment | 10% – 33% |
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
The gain or loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant asset, and is recognised in profit or loss.
Properties for sale under development
Properties for sale under development are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs include acquisition costs, prepaid land lease payments, construction costs, borrowing costs capitalised and other direct costs attributable to such properties. Net realisable value is determined by reference to sale proceeds received after the reporting period less selling expenses, or by estimates based on prevailing market condition. On completion, the properties are reclassified to properties held for sale at the then carrying amount.
– – II(C)-11
APPENDIX II(C)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN
Properties held for sale
Properties held for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs of properties include acquisition costs, prepaid land lease payments, construction costs, borrowing costs capitalised and other direct costs attributable to such properties. Net realisable value is determined by reference to sale proceeds received after the reporting period less selling expenses, or by estimates based on prevailing market condition.
Operating leases
Leases that do not substantially transfer to the lessees all the risks and rewards of ownership of assets are accounted for as operating leases. Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position when the Target Company C becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire; the Target Company C transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets; or the Target Company C neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets but has not retained control on the assets. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets
Financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis where the purchase or sale of an asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially recognised at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs except in the case of investments at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of investments at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Financial assets of the Target Company C are classified as financial assets at amortised cost.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets (including trade and other receivables) are classified under this category if they satisfy both of the following conditions:
-
the assets are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
the contractual terms of the assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less loss allowance for expected credit losses.
– – II(C)-12
APPENDIX II(C)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN
Loss allowances for expected credit losses
The Target Company C recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost. Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of a default occurring as the weights.
At the end of each reporting period, the Target Company C measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the expected life of that financial instrument (“lifetime expected credit losses”) for trade receivables, contract assets and lease receivables, or if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition.
If, at the end of the reporting period, the credit risk on a financial instrument (other than trade receivables, contract assets and lease receivables) has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Target Company C measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to the portion of lifetime expected credit losses that represents the expected credit losses that result from default events on that financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting period.
The amount of expected credit losses or reversal to adjust the loss allowance at the end of the reporting period to the required amount is recognised in profit or loss as an impairment gain or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents represent cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Target Company C’s cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument under HKFRSs. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Target Company C after deducting all of its liabilities. The accounting policies adopted for specific financial liabilities and equity instruments are set out below.
Borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Target Company C has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the Target Company C are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

APPENDIX II(C)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer with reference to the customary business practices and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. For a contract where the period between the payment by the customer and the transfer of the promised product or service exceeds one year, the consideration is adjusted for the effect of a significant financing component.
The Target Company C recognises revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. Depending on the terms of a contract and the laws that apply to that contract, a performance obligation can be satisfied over time or at a point in time. A performance obligation is satisfied over time if:
-
the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Target Company C’s performance;
-
the Target Company C’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or
-
the Target Company C’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Target Company C and the Target Company C has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
If a performance obligation is satisfied over time, revenue is recognised by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. Otherwise, revenue is recognised at a point in time when the customer obtains control of the product or service.
Revenue from sale of properties in the ordinary course of business is recognised when the full payments have been made and the respective properties have been completed and delivered to the buyers. Delivery takes place on the date of collective delivery or execution of the formal sales and purchase agreement, whichever is earlier. Deposits and instalments received from purchasers prior to meeting the above criteria for revenue recognition are included in the statement of financial position as “Contract liabilities” under current liabilities.
Other revenue
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.
Rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Employee benefits
- (a) Employee leave entitlements
Employee entitlements to annual leave and long service leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave and long service leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the end of the reporting period.
Employee entitlements to sick leave and maternity leave are not recognised until the time of leave.
- (b) Pension obligations
The Target Company C participates in a defined contribution retirement scheme organised by the government in the PRC. The Target Company C is required to contribute a specific percentage of the payroll of its employees to the retirement scheme. The contributions are charged to profit or loss as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the retirement scheme. No forfeited contributions may be used by the employers to reduce the existing level of contributions.
– – II(C)-14
APPENDIX II(C)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN
(c) Termination benefits
Termination benefits are recognised at the earlier of the dates when the Target Company C can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Target Company C recognises restructuring costs and involves the payment of termination benefits.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
To the extent that funds are borrowed generally and used for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on that asset. The capitalisation rate is the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the Target Company C that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
Taxation
Income tax represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit recognised in profit or loss because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Target Company C’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Historical Financial Information and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in a subsidiary, except where the Target Company C is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Target Company C expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
– – II(C)-15
APPENDIX II(C)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Target Company C intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
PRC land appreciation tax (“LAT”)
LAT is levied at progressive rates ranging from 30% to 60% on the appreciation of land value, being the proceeds from sales of properties less deductible expenditures including land costs, borrowing costs, business taxes and all property development expenditures. LAT is recognised as an income tax expense. LAT paid is a deductible expense for PRC enterprise income tax purposes.

APPENDIX II(C)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN
Impairment of assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Target Company C reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of any impairment loss. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Target Company C estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal 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 the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognised for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Target Company C has a present 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 expenditures 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 is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow is remote.
Events after the reporting period
Events after the reporting period that provide additional information about the Target Company C’s position at the end of the reporting period or those that indicate the going concern assumption is not appropriate are adjusting events and are reflected in the Historcial Finanical Information. Events after the reporting period that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the Historical Financial Information when material.

6. CRITICAL JUDGMENTS AND KEY ESTIMATES
Critical judgements in applying accounting policies
In the process of applying the accounting policies, the directors of the Target Company C have made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Historical Financial Information.
Going concern basis
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared on a going concern basis, the validity of which depends upon the factors explained in note 3 to the Historical Financial Information.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the Relevant Periods, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below.
(a) Land appreciation tax
The Target Company C is subject to land appreciation tax in the PRC. However, the implementation and settlement of the tax varies amongst different tax jurisdictions in various cities of the PRC and certain property development projects of the Target Company C have not finalised their land appreciation tax calculations and payments with local tax authorities in the PRC. Accordingly, significant judgment is required in determining the amount of land appreciation and its related income tax provisions. The Target Company C recognised the land appreciation tax based on management’s best estimates. The final tax outcome could be different from the amounts that were initially recorded, and these differences will impact the income tax expense and the related income tax provisions in the periods in which such tax is finalised with local tax authorities.
(b) Determination of net realisable value of properties for sale under development and properties held for sale
Properties for sale under development and properties held for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value with an aggregate carrying amount of RMB553,170,000, RMB577,763,000, RMB791,033,000 and RMB844,467,000 as at 31 December 2015, 2016, 2017 and 31 May 2018 respectively. Cost, including the cost of land, development expenditure, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Target Company C’s accounting policy and other attributable expenses, are allocated to each unit in each phase based on sellable gross floor area, using the weighted average method. The net realisable value is the estimated selling price less estimated selling expenses and estimated cost of completion (if any), which are determined based on best available information. Where there is any decrease in the estimated selling price arising from any changes to the property market conditions in the PRC, there may be write-down on the properties under development for sale and completed properties for sale.

ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN
7. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Target Company C’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. The Target Company C’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Target Company C’s financial performance.
(a) Foreign currency risk
The Target Company C has minimal exposure to foreign currency risk as most of its business transactions, assets and liabilities are principally denominated in Renminbi. The Target Company C currently does not have a foreign currency hedging policy in respect of foreign currency transactions, assets and liabilities. The Target Company C will monitor its foreign currency exposure closely and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.
(b) Credit risk
The carrying amounts of the amount due from a related company, pledged bank deposits, bank and cash balances and other receivables included in the statements of financial position represent the Target Company C’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to the Target Company C’s financial assets.
The Target Company C has no significant concentration of credit risk.
It has policies in place to ensure that sales are made to customers with an appropriate credit history. Amount due from a related company is closely monitored by the directors.
The credit risk on bank and cash balances and pledged bank deposits is limited because the counterparties are banks with good reputation.
The Target Company C considers whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk of financial assets on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period by comparing the risk of a default occurring as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information. Especially the following information is used:
-
internal credit rating;
-
external credit rating (if available);
-
actual or expected significant adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the borrower’s ability to meet its obligations;
-
actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the borrower;
-
significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same borrower;
-
significant changes in the value of the collateral or in the quality of guarantees or credit enhancements; and
-
significant changes in the expected performance and behaviour of the borrower, including changes in the payment status of borrowers.

APPENDIX II(C)
ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT OF BAOHUA JIANGYIN
Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Target Company C. The Target Company C normally categorises a receivable for write off when a debtor fails to make contractual payments greater than 360 days past due. Where receivables have been written off, the Target Company C, if practicable and economical, continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due.
(c) Liquidity risk
The Target Company C’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term. All of the Target Company C’s financial liabilities are due within one year.
(d) Interest rate risk
As the Target Company C has no significant interest-bearing assets and liabilities, the Target Company C’s operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.
The Target Company C’s exposure to the cash flow interest rate risk relates primarily to the interest-bearing borrowings with floating interest rates. The effective interest rates and terms of repayment of the interest-bearing borrowings of the Target Company C are disclosed in Note 24 to the Historical Financial Information.
For the Relevant Periods, if interest rates had been 10 basis points higher/lower with all other variables held constant, (loss)/profit after tax for the Relevant Periods would have been (increased)/decreased for the year ended 2015, 2016, 2017 and five months ended 31 May 2018 mainly as a result of changes in interest expenses and income on secured borrowings as follows:

APPENDIX IV
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP
The purpose of Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information included in the Circular is solely to illustrate the impact of the Acquisition on unadjusted financial information of the Group as if the Acquisition had been undertaken at an earlier date selected for purposes of the illustration. Accordingly, we do not provide any assurance that the actual outcome of the Acquisition as at 31 March 2018 would have been as presented.
A reasonable assurance engagement to report on whether the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been properly compiled on the basis of the applicable criteria involves performing procedures to assess whether the applicable criteria used by the Directors in the compilation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects directly attributable to the Acquisition, and to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence about whether:
-
The related pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those criteria; and
-
The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information reflects the proper application of those adjustments to the unadjusted financial information.
The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountant’s judgment, having regard to the reporting accountant’s understanding of the nature of the Group, the Acquisition in respect of which the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been compiled, and other relevant engagement circumstances.
The engagement also involves evaluating the overall presentation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information.
We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion:
-
(a) the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been properly compiled on the basis stated;
-
(b) such basis is consistent with the accounting policies of the Group; and
-
(c) the adjustments are appropriate for the purposes of the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information as disclosed pursuant to paragraph 29(1) of Chapter 4 of the Listing Rules.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP
(1) INTRODUCTION TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP
Capitalised terms used herein shall have the same meanings as those defined in this Circular, unless the context requires otherwise.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of the Enlarged Group (the “ Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information ”) has been prepared by the Directors of the Company to illustrate the effect of the Acquisition.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information is prepared based on the consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as at 31 March 2018 as extracted from the annual report of the Group for the year ended 31 March 2018, the audited statement of financial position of the Target Company A as at 31 May 2018, the audited statement of financial position of the Target Company B as at 31 May 2018 and the audited statement of financial position of the Target Company C as at 31 May 2018 as extracted from the accountants’ report as set out in Appendix II(A), II(B) and II(C) of this Circular respectively after making certain proforma adjustments resulting from the Acquisition.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information is prepared based on a number of assumptions, estimates, uncertainties and currently available information, and is provided for illustrative purposes only. Accordingly, as a result of the nature of the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, it may not give a true picture of the actual financial position of the Group that would have been attained had the Acquisition actually occurred on 31 March 2018. Furthermore, the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information does not purport to predict the Group’s future financial position.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information should be read in conjunction with the financial information of the Group as set out in Appendix I of this Circular, the financial information of the Target Company A, Target Company B and Target Company C as set out in Appendix II(A), II(B) and II(C) of this Circular respectively and other financial information included elsewhere in this Circular.

According to paragraph 15(b) of Hong Kong Accounting Standard 12 states that an entity does not recognise a deferred tax liability for taxable temporary differences that arise from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit or loss nor taxable profit (tax loss). On acquisition, the acquiring entity recognises only the identifiable assets and not a deferred tax liability RMB20.78 million in its consolidated financial statements. The acquiring entity therefore allocates the entire purchase price to the identifiable assets.
(7b) According to the Group’s accounting policy, the investment properties are recognized initially at fair value. For the purpose of preparation of this unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position, the fair values of investment properties were approximately RMB267.79 million.

We assumed that the transaction pursuant to the Baohua Jiangyin Agreement for the acquisition of 55% entire equity interests of Target Company C is treated as business combination. The further transaction pursuant to the Further Acquisition Agreement for the acquisition of 15% entire equity interests of Target Company C is a separate transaction and the changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent losing control of the subsidiary are equity transactions (i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners).
-
(10) The adjustment represented the reclassification from amount due from a related party of approximately RMB6.09 million and amount due to related parties of approximately RMB12.70 million to trade and other receivables, and prepayments and amounts due to related parties of approximately RMB153.92 million to trade and other payables, and other liabilities.
-
(11) An impairment loss shall be recognised for a cash-generating unit if, and only if, the recoverable amount of the unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit in according with Hong Kong Accounting Standard 36 “Impairment of Assets” (“HKAS 36”). Based on the lasted information, the management have assessed whether these is any impairment on the pro forma goodwill as at 31 March 2018 in accordance with HKAS36. The carrying amount of the goodwill arising from the Acquisition of the Target Company C is approximately RMB263.01 million. The recoverable amount of this cash-generating unit has been determined based on a value in use calculation using cash flow projections based on financial budgets covering a five-year period. The pro forma goodwill allocated to this cash-generating unit has therefore been reduced to its recoverable amount through recognition of an impairment loss against goodwill of RMB93.87 million in the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of the Enlarged Group.

APPENDIX V
PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT
Our valuations exclude an estimated price inflated or deflated by special terms or circumstances such as atypical financing, sale and leaseback arrangement, special considerations or concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale, or any element of special value or costs of sale and purchase or offset for any associated taxes.
Our valuations also exclude potential tax liability which might arise if the assets were to be sold at the valuation date, including but not limited to profit tax, business tax, land appreciation tax, capital gain tax and any other relevant taxes prevailing at the valuation date.
CATEGORISATION OF PROPERTY INTERESTS
In the course of our valuation, the appraised property interests have been categorised according firstly to type of interests held by the Target Companies, which in turn being classified into the following groups:
Group I – Property interests held for investment by the Target Company B in the People’s Republic of China (the “ PRC ”)
Group II – Property interests held under development by the Target Company C in the PRC
Group III – Property interests held for future development by the Target Company A in the PRC
VALUATION METHODOLOGY
In valuing the property interests in Group I, we have valued the property interests by income approach by taking into account the net rental income of the properties derived from the existing leases and/or achievable in the existing market with due allowance for the reversionary income potential of the leases, which have been then capitalised to determine the market value at an appropriate capitalisation rate. Where appropriate, reference has also been made to the comparable sale transactions as available in the relevant market.
In valuing the property interests in Group II, the property interest is currently under development, we have assumed that they will be developed and completed in accordance with the latest development proposal provided to us by the Target Companies. We have assumed that all consents, approvals and licenses from relevant government authorities for the development proposals have been obtained without onerous conditions or delays. In arriving at our opinion of value, we have adopted the market approach by making reference to comparable sales evidence as available in the relevant market and have also taken into account the accrued construction cost and professional fees relevant to the stage of construction as at the date of valuation and the reminder of cost and fees that expected to be incurred for completing the development.

APPENDIX V
PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT
In valuing the property interests in Group III, the property interest held for future development, we have valued the property interests by market approach assuming sale of the property interests in their existing state with the benefit of immediate vacant possession and by making reference to comparable sales transactions as available in the relevant market. Appropriate adjustments and analysis are considered given the differences in location, size and other characters between the comparable properties and the subject properties.
TITLE INVESTIGATION
We have been provided by the Target Companies with copy of extract of the documents relating to the property interests. Where possible, we have examined the original documents to verify the existing title to the property interests in the PRC and any material encumbrances that might be attached to the property interests or any amendments which may not appear on the copies handed to us.
However, we have not searched the original documents to verify ownership or to ascertain any amendment. Due to the current registration system of the PRC under which the registration information is not accessible to the public, no investigation has been made for the title of the property interests in the PRC and the material encumbrances that might be attached. In the course of our valuation, we have relied considerably on the legal opinion given by the Company’s PRC legal adviser – Liaoning Gong Dan Law Offices, concerning the validity of title of the property interests in the PRC.
SITE INVESTIGATION
We have inspected the exterior and, where possible, the accessible portions of the interior of the property interests being appraised. The inspection was carried out by Ivan Mak (Senior Valuer of AVISTA Valuation Advisory Limited), during the period from 28-31 January 2018 and Raymond Chan (Manager of AVISTA Valuation Advisory Limited), during the period from 1 – 3 August 2018. However, we have not been commissioned to carry out structural survey nor to arrange for an inspection of the services. We are, therefore, not able to report whether the properties are free of rot, infestation or any other structural defects. We formulate our view as to the overall conditions of the properties taking into account the general appearance, the apparent standard and age of fixtures and fittings and the existence of utility services. Hence it must be stressed that we have had regard to you with a view as to whether the property is free from defects or as to the possibility of latent defects which might affect our valuation. In the course of our inspection, we did not note any serious defects. No tests were carried out on any of the services. We have assumed that utility services, such as electricity, telephone, water, etc., are available and free from defect.
We have not been commissioned to carry out detailed site measurements to verify the correctness of the land areas in respect of the properties but have assumed that the areas provided to us are correct. Based on our experience of valuation of similar properties, we consider the assumptions so made to be reasonable.

APPENDIX V
PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT
Moreover, we have not carried out any site investigation to determine the suitability of the ground conditions or the services for any property development erected or to be erected thereon. Nor did we undertake archaeological, ecological or environmental surveys for the property interests. Our valuation is prepared on the assumption that these aspects are satisfactory and that no extraordinary expenses or delays will be incurred during the construction period. Should it be discovered that contamination, subsidence or other latent defects exists in the properties or on adjoining or neighbouring land or that the properties had been or are being put to contaminated use, we reserve right to revise our opinion of value.
