LETTER FROM THE BOARD
TOTAL CONSIDERATION
The total consideration for the Transaction is RMB2,012,520,000, which was determined with reference to the valuation on the Target Group as determined by PSA (HK) Surveyors Limited, an independent valuer, on 30 November 2017 in the amount of RMB2,297,000,000. The valuation was based on a combination of market approach and asset-based approach. Market approach was used to value WXM where the valuer seeks to identify appropriate precedent transactions in the market as a reference for comparable. The valuer compares the P/E factors of comparable transactions with the subject and made appropriated adjustments in order to arrive at a fair comparison of capital value. Asset-based approach was used to determine the value of the remaining members of the Target Group (excluding WXM), since the other members are holding companies and have no revenue.
As the total consideration for the Transaction of RMB2,012,520,000 is at a discount to the valuation of the Target Group in the amount of RMB2,297,000,000, the Directors, including the independent non-executive Directors, consider that the total consideration for the Transaction is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
As the agreements under the Transaction are related and inter-conditional, the Total Consideration was considered by the Company as one sum with the allocation of consideration to each individual agreement based on the following allocation:
| Agreement | Consideration | Basis of allocation |
|---|---|---|
| RMB | ||
| First Agreement | 797,880,000 | Based on 1% of the equity interest of |
| Shenzhen Jiaxin and the outstanding | ||
| shareholder’s loan of Shenzhen Jiaxin in | ||
| the amount of approximately RMB776 | ||
| million | ||
| Second Agreement | 1,184,640,000 | Based on 99% equity interest of Shenzhen |
| Jiaxin | ||
| Third Agreement | Free of consideration | No consideration is payable under the |
| Agreement but Shenzhen Gaorunda will | ||
| assume the obligation of Shenzhen Jianian | ||
| in contributing RMB1,000,000 to the | ||
| capital of Shenzhen Wanxiang | ||
| Fourth Agreement | 30,000,000 | Based on 1% of the equity interest of WXM |
| on the valuation of WXM of approximately | ||
| RMB3.02 billion |

The net asset value of Shenzhen Wanxiang as at 30 June 2017 was approximately RMB2,105,294.
WXM is a company established in the PRC and was acquired by Shenzhen Wanxiang and Shenzhen Jianian in August 2016 from an independent third party for RMB2,000,000,000. WXM and its 12 subsidiaries principally engaged in the business of property management for residential communities.
Set out below is the summary financial information of WXM Group for the two years ended 31 December 2015 and 2016 and period from 1 January 2017 to 30 June 2017:

The net asset value of WXM as at 30 June 2017 was approximately RMB191,699,000.
WXM Group paid advisory fee of RMB16.96 million and RMB14.45 million to Home E&E and Kaiyuan International for their property advisory services in 2016 respectively, resulting in a decrease in profit of WXM Group in 2016. Based on professional consultancy of Home E&E and Kaiyuan International, income of WXM Group increased and costs were under control, and profit margins of new businesses increased, leading to a significant increase in profit of WXM Group in first half of 2017.
Pursuant to a deed of non-competition (the “ Deed ”) dated 11 June 2014, Fantasia has undertaken, among others, that until the date on which Fantasia ceases to hold, whether directly or indirectly, 30% or more of the shares of the Company, Fantasia and its subsidiaries (excluding
– 23 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
the Company and its subsidiaries) would not engage in any business involving certain activities including property management focusing on residential communities. Details of the Deed are set out under the paragraph headed “Non-Competition Undertakings” under the section headed “RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDER” of the prospectus of the Company dated 17 June 2014.
At the time of the acquisition of WXM in August 2016, Fantasia has offered the acquisition opportunity to the Company. As the operations and the management of WXM were not modern and fragmented and lacking in modern infrastructure at that time, and that the partnership of Shenzhen Wanxiang established for the acquisition was controlled by Shenzhen Xincheng, an independent third party, as the executive partner, the acquisition would only be an investment role with no day-to-day management involvement by the investor. As such, the Company considered that it was not an investment that ought to be pursued and led by the Company at that time and it would be more appropriate for Fantasia to be a partner in Shenzhen Wanxiang for the purpose of the acquisition. WXM was accounted as an associated company of Fantasia and its results were not consolidated in the financial statements of Fantasia. Given that Fantasia has not been involved in the day-to-day operations and management of WXM, and that it has no control over the board of directors of WXM or the investment committee of Shenzhen Wanxiang, the Company is of the view that Fantasia has not been engaged in residential communities focused property management business and had complied with the terms of the Deed.
Since the acquisition, the Target Group has gone through a series of optimization and the structure, management and operations of WXM have become stable and the Target Group has also achieved a strong growth in revenue. As part of Fantasia’s continuous assessment of its strategic development, it was considered that it would be appropriate to gain control of Shenzhen Wanxiang and the Target Group through the entering into of the Supplemental Partnership Agreement and through the Transaction to transfer the Target Group to the Company. The Transaction would strengthen the Company’s leading market position in property management, whilst Fantasia will continue to focus on its principal activities of property development.
Upon completion of the Transaction, members of the Target Group will become subsidiaries of the Company, and will also become subsidiaries (with their accounts consolidated into the financial statements of Fantasia and its subsidiaries) of Fantasia.
Further details of the financial information of the Target Group are set out in Appendix II of the circular.
REASONS FOR THE TRANSACTION
Fantasia is a leading property developer and property related service provider in the PRC. The Group is principally engaged in property management services, engineering services and community leasing, sales and other services. WXM is recognized as a significant player in the property management industry in the PRC. The Transaction would provide a good opportunity for the Company to reinforce its position as one of the leading property management companies

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
in the PRC. The Board (including members of the Independent Board Committee who have consider the advise from Gram Capital) considers that the terms of the Transaction are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE GRAM CAPITAL
increased, leading to a significant increase in profit of WXM Group in first half of 2017. Upon completion of the Transaction, members of Target Group will become subsidiaries of the Company, and hence remain as subsidiaries of Fantasia.
Reasons for and benefits of the Transaction
With reference to the Board Letter, the Group is principally engaged in property management services, engineering services and community leasing, sales and other services. WXM is recognised as a significant player in the property management industry in the PRC. The Transaction would provide a good opportunity to reinforce the Group’s position as one of the leading property management companies in the PRC.
We note from the 2016 Annual Report that the largest revenue generating segment of the Group is Property Mgt Segment (representing approximately 78.91% of the Group’s total revenue for FY2016). In addition, as illustrated in the table under the section headed “Information on the Target Group” above, WXM Group recorded profit and total comprehensive income of approximately RMB235.03 million for the ten months ended 31 October 2017, which was approximately 11 times of that for FY2016.
With reference to the 2017 Interim Report and as advised by the Directors, it is the Group’s strategy to expand its Property Mgt Segment.
With reference to the National Bureau of Statistics of the PRC, the percentage of population living in urban areas in the PRC increased by approximately 1.25 percentage point to approximately 57.35% from 31 December 2015 to 31 December 2016. Moreover, there was continuous growth in disposable income per capita for urban population in the PRC, which amounted to RMB33,616 for 2016, represented a approximately 7.76% year-on-year growth. As a result of the urbanization and the growth in disposable income per capita of urban residents, PRC consumers may demand better living conditions as well as quality property management services, which may be the drivers for the growth of the property management industry.
We also noted certain PRC government guidance which are positive to the development of the PRC property management industry, namely, (i)《國家發展改革委 關於放開部分服務價格意見的通知》(Notice of the National Development and Reform Commission in relation to the opinions on relaxing price controls for certain services) issued by the National Development and Reform Commission of the PRC in December 2014, which aimed to relax the government price controls on various servicing industries, including the property management industry; (ii)《國務院辦公廳 關於加快發展生活性服務業促進消費結構升級的指導意見》 (Guidance of the general office of the PRC State Council on residential servicing industry development acceleration and promotion of consumption structure upgrade) published by the general office of the PRC State Council in November 2015, which set out the
– 37 –
LETTER FROM THE GRAM CAPITAL
objective to standardize and promote, among others, the property management industry development; and (iii) 《智慧社區建設指南(試行)》 (Guidance on intelligent community construction (Trial)) published by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of the PRC (the “ MHURD* ”) in May 2014, which set out detail guidelines to promote the integration of modern technologies and community services.
According to 《2016中國物業服務百強企業研究報告》 (2016 research report on top 100 PRC property management enterprises) published by China Property Management Institute (a social organization under the management of the MHURD) in June 2016, the average GFA under the management of the top 100 property management companies of the PRC (“ Top 100 PM Companies* ”) reached approximately 23.61 million square metres in 2015, representing a year-on-year growth of 46.76%. In addition, the average operating revenue of the Top 100 PM Companies reached approximately RMB540.77 million in 2015, representing a year-on-year growth of 27.24%. Moreover, the Top 100 PM Companies actively conducted mergers and acquisitions, which increased the market concentration and optimized the resource allocation of the property management industry.
Having considered (i) positive business performance of the Group’s Property Mgt Segment and WXM Group for FY2016 and the ten months ended 31 October 2017; (ii) that WXM Group is principally engaged in property management business; (iii) that the Transaction is in line with the Group’s strategy to expand its Property Mgt Segment; and (iv) the positive outlook of the PRC property management industry as demonstrated above, we concur with the Directors that the Transaction is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

– 39 –
LETTER FROM THE GRAM CAPITAL
With reference to the Board Letter, the Consideration IV for the transfer of the 1% equity interest in WXM to Shenzhen Gaorunda was determined with reference to the preliminary valuation on WXM.
The Total Consideration
According to the Valuation Report, the Valuation as at 30 November 2017 was RMB2,297,000,000. Details of the Valuation Report (including methodologies, basis, assumptions and comparable transactions adopted) are set out under Appendix V to the Circular. The Valuer selected asset-based approach to value the 100% equity interest of the Target Group after using market approach to value the 100% equity interest of WXM Group.
The Total Consideration of RMB2,012,520,000 (together with the Contribution of RMB1,000,000) represents a discount of approximately 12.34% to the Valuation. Having considered that the completion of each of the Acquisition Agreements is conditional among each other, we assessed the Total Consideration on an aggregated basis and did not assess the consideration/contribution under each of the Acquisition Agreements separately.
For our due diligence purpose, we reviewed and enquired into (i) the terms of engagement of the Valuer with the Company; (ii) the Valuer’s qualification and experience in relation to the preparation of the Valuation Report; (iii) the steps and due diligence measures taken by the Valuer for conducting the Valuation; (iv) key assumptions adopted in the Valuation; and (v) details of the comparable transactions adopted for the Valuation such as dates of transaction, consideration, relevant financial figure, and their selection criteria.
From the mandate letter and other relevant information provided by the Valuer and based on our interview with them, we are satisfied with the terms of engagement of the Valuer as well as their qualification and experience for preparation of the Valuation Report. The Valuer has also confirmed that they are independent to the Company, Fantasia, the Target Group and their respective subsidiaries and associates.
We further reviewed and enquired into the Valuer on the methodology adopted and the basis and assumptions adopted in arriving at the Valuation in order for us to understand the Valuation Report. With reference to the Valuation Report, the Valuer observed and followed the standards laid down by “The HKIS Valuation Standards (2017 Edition)” published by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors and “International Valuation standards” published by the International Valuation Standards Council. As confirmed by the Valuer, the asset-based approach and market approach are commonly adopted approaches for valuation of companies and are also consistent with normal market practice.
– 40 –
LETTER FROM THE GRAM CAPITAL
With reference to the Valuation Report and as confirmed by the Valuer,
-
(i) the Valuer believes the cost approach to be insufficient in capturing the future economic benefits of WXM Group’s assets given that WXM Group is servicing company in which the return is not mainly driven by its tangible assets;
-
(ii) when comparing between the income approach and market approach, income approach usually relies more heavily on the reasonable forecast of future performance and the accurate selection of various market parameters, and the valuation result is sometimes quite sensitive to a few market parameters;
-
(iii) market approach is relatively more direct in term of forecast and market parameters if available;
-
(iv) in this case, the Valuer could find some suitable public and private precedent merger and acquisition transactions of property management companies which can provide the Valuer a more reliable valuation result than the income approach; and
-
(v) asset-based approach is an appropriate method to value the Target Group since members of the Target Group other than WXM Group are mainly for the purpose of investment holding.
Having considered the aforementioned reasons for selection of appropriate approaches for the Valuation, we did not consider other approaches to assess the fairness and reasonableness of the Total Consideration.
With reference to the Valuation Report, the Valuer adopted the actual financial results of the WXM Group from January to October 2017 for the yearly net income adopted in the Valuation, i.e. a yearly net income of RMB282,034,800 which is equivalent to a monthly net income of RMB23,502,900 derived from the average of the actual net income achieved by the WXM Group from January to October in 2017 (the “ Earning Normalization ”). We also discussed with the Valuer and understood the basis for the Earning Normalization which is set out under the section headed “7. EARNING NORMALIZATION” of Appendix V to the Circular.
During our discussion with the Valuer on the methodology adopted and the basis and assumptions adopted in arriving at the Valuation (including the Earning Normalization), we did not identify any major factors which caused us to doubt the fairness and reasonableness of the principal basis, assumptions and comparable transactions adopted for the Valuation. However, Shareholders should note that valuation of assets or companies usually involves assumptions and therefore the Valuation may or may not reflect the value of Target Group as at 30 November 2017 accurately.

LETTER FROM THE GRAM CAPITAL
Having considered the above and that the Total Consideration of RMB2,012,520,000 (together with the Contribution of RMB1,000,000) represents a discount of approximately 12.34% to the Valuation, we are of the opinion that the Total Consideration (together with the Contribution of RMB1,000,000) is fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned.
Consideration Shares
The Consideration Shares represent approximately 21.38% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date, and approximately 17.61% of the total number of Shares as enlarged by the issue of the Consideration Shares.
Issue Price
The Consideration Shares will be issued at HK$5.10 per Share. The Issue Price represents:
-
(i) a discount of approximately 1% to the closing price of the Shares of HK$5.15 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date;
-
(ii) a premium of approximately 5% over the closing price of the Shares of HK$4.88 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the date of the Second Agreement; and
-
(iii) a discount of approximately 5% to the closing price of the Shares of HK$5.39 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the date of the Supplemental Agreement.
The Issue Price was determined after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and Fantasia with reference to the prevailing market prices of the Shares.

As shown by the table of the Share Comparables above, the dilution effects to the then existing public shareholding interests of the Share Comparables ranged from approximately 0.37 percentage point to approximately 27.60 percentage point (the “ Dilution Range ”). As depicted by the table under the section headed “Effect on shareholding structure of Colour Life” of the Board Letter, upon issuance of the Consideration Shares, the shareholding interests of the existing public Shareholders would be diluted by approximately 5.87 percent point, which is within the Dilution Range.
In view of (i) possible benefits of the Transaction; (ii) the terms of the Acquisition Agreements being fair and reasonable (to be concluded below); and (iii) the dilution effect on the then existing public shareholding interests of the Company (i.e. approximately 5.87 percentage point) is within the Dilution Range, we are of the view that the aforementioned level of dilution to the shareholding interests of the existing public Shareholders is acceptable.
Other major terms of the Acquisition Agreements are set out under the section headed “The Transaction” of the Board Letter.
Taking into account the principal terms of the Acquisition Agreements, we consider that the terms of the Acquisition Agreements are fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
3. Possible financial effects of the Transaction
We were advised by the Directors that upon completion of the Transaction, members of the Target Group will be wholly-owned by the Company and their financial results, assets and liabilities will be fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group.
The unaudited pro forma financial information of the Enlarged Group (the “ Pro Forma Information ”) is included in Appendix IV to the Circular.
As extracted from the 2017 Interim Report, the unaudited consolidated total assets and total liabilities of the Group were approximately RMB4.12 billion and RMB2.56 billion as at 30 June 2017 respectively. According to the Pro Forma Information, the unaudited consolidated total assets and total liabilities of the Enlarged Group would be approximately RMB7.99 billion and RMB5.86 billion respectively as if the Transaction had been completed on 30 June 2017.
It should be noted that the aforementioned analyses are for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent how the financial position of the Group will be upon completion of the Transaction.

1.2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Prior to the establishment of the WXM and the completion of Acquisition I, the operating business was carried on by the WXM Subsidiaries now comprising the WXM Group. The WXM Group is regarded as a continuing entity resulting from the Acquisition I since the insertion of a holding company at the top of the WXM Subsidiaries has not resulted in any change in economic substance (the “ Restructuring ”). Accordingly, the Historical Financial Information has been prepared using the merger basis of accounting as if the Restructuring had occurred as of the beginning of the Track Record Period and the current group structure had always been in existence.
The consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statements of cash flows of the WXM Group for the Track Record Period have been using the financial information of the entities now comprising the WXM Group, as if the current group structure had been in existence throughout the Track Record Period, or since the respective dates of incorporation of the relevant entities now comprising the WXM Group where this is a shorter period. The consolidated statements of financial position of the WXM Group have been prepared to present the assets and liabilities of the entities now comprising the WXM Group which were in existence at those reporting dates, as if the current structure had been in existence as at the respective reporting dates. The net assets and results of the WXM Group were consolidated using the carrying value from the perspective of the ultimate controlling party. All significant intra-group transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

3 SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied during the Track Record Period, unless otherwise stated.
3.1 Basis of preparation
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with accounting policies conform with HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA. In addition, the Historical Financial Information includes applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (“ Listing Rules ”) and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (“ CO ”).
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared on the historical cost basis.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
The preparation of the Historical Financial Information in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise their judgement in the process of applying the WXM Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Historical Financial Information are disclosed in note 4.
3.2 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the WXM and entities controlled by the WXM and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the WXM:
-
has power over the investee;
-
is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
– IIA-12 –
ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF WXM
APPENDIX IIA
- has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.
The WXM Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the WXM Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the WXM Group loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the Track Record Period are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the WXM Group gains control until the date when the WXM Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the WXM Group’s accounting policies.
All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the WXM Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
Business combinations under common control
Business combination involving entities under common control has been accounted for by applying the principles of merger accounting.
In applying merger accounting, the consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the combining entities or businesses in which the common control combination occurs as if they had been combined from the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under the control of the controlling party.
The net assets of the combining entities or businesses are combined using the existing book values from the controlling parties’ perspective. No amount is recognised for goodwill or excess of acquirers’ interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the time of common control combination, to the extent of the continuation of the controlling party’s interest. Any excess of the consideration paid over the net carrying amount of the acquired entities are recognised in merger reserve.
The consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income includes the results of each of the combining entities or businesses from the earliest date presented or since the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under common control, where there is a shorter period, regardless of the date of the common control combination.
Transaction costs, including professional fees, registration fees, costs of furnishing information to shareholders, costs or losses incurred in combining operations of the previously separate businesses incurred in relation to the common control combination that are to be accounted for by using merger accounting are recognised as expenses in the year in which they were incurred.
Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the directors of the WXM that make strategic decisions.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amount receivable for services provided in the normal course of business, net of sales related taxes.
– IIA-13 –
ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF WXM
APPENDIX IIA
The WXM Group charged property management fees in respect of the property management services on a lump sum basis. Revenue is recognised when services are provided.
Property management fees charged on lump sum basis. The WXM Group is entitled to retain the full amount of received property management fees. From the property management fees, the WXM Group pay out their expenses associated with, among others, staff, cleaning, garbage disposal, gardening and landscaping, security and general overhead covering the common areas. During the term of the contract, if the amount of property management fees the WXM Group collect is not sufficient to cover all the expenses incurred, the WXM Group is not entitled to request the property owners to pay the shortfall.
Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated in the consolidated statement of financial position at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of items.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
The carrying amounts of items of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for indications of impairment at the end of each reporting period. An impairment loss is recognised to the extent that the carrying amount of an asset, or the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, is more than its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset, or of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, is the greater of its 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 time value of money and the risks specific to the assets. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.
Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, and short term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash, are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and have a short maturity of generally within three months when acquired, less bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the WXM Group’s cash management.
For the purpose of the consolidated statements of financial position, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and at banks, including term deposits, and assets similar in nature to cash, which are not restricted as to use.
Leasing
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
– IIA-14 –
ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF WXM
APPENDIX IIA
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the WXM Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
Financial assets
The WXM Group’s financial assets are loans and receivables. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets is determined at the time of initial recognition. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables (including trade and bills receivables, other receivables and prepayments, amounts due from fellow subsidiaries, related companies and immediate holding company and cash and cash equivalents) are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment (see accounting policy on impairment of financial assets below).
Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables where the recognition of interest would be immaterial.
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period.
Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.
Objective evidence of impairment could include:
-
significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or
-
breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest and principal payments; or
-
it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation.
For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the WXM Group’s past experience of collecting
– IIA-15 –
ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF WXM
APPENDIX IIA
payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by the WXM Group are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the WXM Group are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Repurchase of the WXM’s own equity instruments is recognised and deducted directly in equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchases, sale, issue or cancellation of the WXM’s own equity instruments.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. Interest expense is recognised on an effective interest basis.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
Financial liabilities (including trade and other payables and accruals, borrowing, and amounts due to fellow subsidiaries and related companies) are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.
Derecognition
The WXM Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire.
– IIA-16 –
ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF WXM
APPENDIX IIA
On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss.
The WXM Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the WXM Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.
Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before taxation’ as reported in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The WXM Group’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 temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally derecognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of 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 associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the WXM Group 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. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to 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 assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the WXM Group 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 liabilities or deferred tax assets for investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the carrying amounts of such properties are presumed to be recovered entirely through sale, unless the presumption is rebutted. The presumption is rebutted when the investment property is depreciable and is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Retirement benefit costs
Payments to the state-managed retirement benefits schemes and the defined contribution retirement benefits plans are recognised as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.
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 added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
Government grants
Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attaching conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the costs, which it is intended to compensate, are expensed.

APPENDIX IIA
4 KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of WXM Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the directors of WXM are required to make estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the following twelve months.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
The WXM Group assesses annually whether property, plant and equipment have any indication of impairment, in accordance with relevant accounting policies. The recoverable amounts of property, plant and equipment have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculation and valuations require the use of judgement and estimates on future operating cash flows and discount rates adopted. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment as at 31 December 2014, 31 December 2015, 31 December 2016 and 31 October 2017 amounting to RMB16,348,000 (unaudited), RMB18,798,000, RMB36,066,000 and RMB48,542,000, respectively.
Recoverability of trade and bills receivables, other receivables and prepayments
The provision policy for bad and doubtful debts of the WXM Group is based on the evaluation of collectability and aging analysis of accounts and management’s judgement. Judgements are required in assessing the ultimate realisation of these receivables, including the current creditworthiness and the past collection history of each customer. If the financial conditions of customers of the WXM Group were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowance may be required.
The carrying amount of trade and bills receivables, other receivables and prepayments as at 31 December 2014, 31 December 2015, 31 December 2016 and 31 October 2017, amounting to RMB63,236,000 (unaudited) (net of impairment losses of RMB4,951,000 (unaudited)), RMB80,934,000 (net of impairment losses of RMB10,686,000), RMB189,850,000 (net of impairment losses of RMB9,325,000), and RMB256,388,000 (net of impairment losses of RMB17,751,000), respectively.
5 CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The WXM Group manages its capital to ensure that the WXM Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to owners through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The WXM Group’s overall strategy remained unchanged during the Track Record Period.
The capital structure of the WXM Group consists of debts, which includes equity attributable to owners of the WXM Group, comprising issued paid-in capital/share capital, merger reserve and retained earnings.
The management of the WXM Group reviews the capital structure regularly. The management considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital and will balance its overall capital structure through payments of dividends, new share issues as well as issue of new debts or repayment of existing debts, if necessary.

(b) Financial risk management objectives and policies
The WXM Group’s major financial instruments are disclosed in respective notes. The risks associated with these financial instruments include market risk (including foreign currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. The management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.
Market risk
Interest rate risk
The WXM Group’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. The WXM Group’s exposure to changes in interest rates is mainly attributable to its bank balances which carries interest at variable rates.
The WXM Group is exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to fixed-rate borrowings. The WXM Group currently does not use any derivative contract to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk. However, the management will consider hedging significant interest rate exposure should the need arise.
The management considered that interest rate risk in fixed-rate borrowings is insignificant.
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of each reporting period. The sensitivity analysis is prepared assuming the bank balances occurred at the end of the reporting period was occurred for the whole period.
A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates. If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the profit before taxation for the Track Record Period would increase/decrease by RMB3,396,000 (unaudited), RMB4,258,000, RMB1,191,000 and RMB1,487,000, respectively. This is mainly attributable to the WXM Group’s exposure to interest rates on its variable-rate bank balances.

APPENDIX IIA
Foreign currency risk
Given the WXM Group has neither foreign currency assets nor incurs foreign currency liabilities for the Track Record Period, the directors of the WXM is of the view that the WXM Group does not have any significant concentration of currency risks.
Credit risk
At the end of the reporting period, the WXM Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the WXM Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statement of financial position.
The WXM Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade and bills receivable, other receivables and prepayments, amounts due from fellow subsidiaries, related companies and immediate holding company and bank balances.
The WXM Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual outstanding receivables at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amount. In this regard, the directors of the WXM consider that the WXM Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.
The credit risk on bank balances is limited because the majority of the counterparties are banks with good reputation.
The credit risk on amounts due from fellow subsidiaries, related companies and immediate holding company are insignificant after considering the financial strength of these related parties.
The WXM Group has no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a large number of counterparties and customers.
Liquidity risk
The WXM Group’s objective is to maintain a continuity of funding. The WXM Group also monitors the current and expected liquidity requirements and its compliance with lending covenants regularly to ensure it maintains sufficient working capital and adequate committed lines of funding to meet its liquidity requirement.
The following table details the maturities of the WXM Group’s financial liabilities. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the WXM Group can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows.

(c) Fair value measurements
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.
The directors of the WXM consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the consolidated financial statements approximate their fair values.
7 REVENUE AND SEGMENT INFORMATION
Operating segments are identified on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“ CODM ”) to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance.
The CODM which is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments has been defined as the directors of the WXM Group. The operations of the WXM Group represent a single operating and reportable segment under HKFRS 8 Operating Segments. The WXM Group has been operating in one operating segment, being property management services and other related services, and historical financial information has been reviewed by the CODM on consolidated basis as a whole for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of performance.

APPENDIX IIB — ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF SHENZHEN WANXIANG
2 IMPACT OF ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE HKFRSs
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group has not applied the following new and revised HKFRSs, that have been issued but are not yet effective, in the Historical Financial Information.
HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments[1] HKFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and the related Amendments[1] HKFRS 16 Leases[2] HK (IFRIC) – Int 22 Foreign Currency Transactions and Advanced Consideration[1] HK (IFRIC) – Int 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment[2] Amendments to HKFRS 2 Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions[1] Amendments to HKFRS 4 Applying HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments with HKFRS 4 Insurance Contracts[1] Amendments to HKFRS 15 Clarifications to HKFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers[1] Amendments to HKFRS 10 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint and HKAS 28 Venture[3] Amendments to HKFRSs Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2014–2016 Cycle[1]
- 1 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 2 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 3 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after a date to be determined
The expected impacts from the adoption of the above standards and amendments are still being assessed in details by management, and management is not yet in a position to state whether they would have a significant impact on the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s results of operations and financial position.
3 SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied during the Track Record Period, unless otherwise stated.
3.1 Basis of preparation
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with accounting policies conform with HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA. In addition, the Historical Financial Information includes applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (“ Listing Rules ”) and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (“ CO ”).
The Historical Financial Information has been prepared on the historical cost basis.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
The preparation of the Historical Financial Information in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise their judgement in the process of applying the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Historical Financial Information are disclosed in note 4.
3.2 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Shenzhen Wanxiang and entities controlled by the Shenzhen Wanxiang. Control is achieved when the Shenzhen Wanxiang:
-
has power over the investee;
-
is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
– IIB-13 –
APPENDIX IIB — ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF SHENZHEN WANXIANG
- has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the Track Record Period are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group gains control until the date when the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s accounting policies.
All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
Goodwill
Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any, and is presented separately in the consolidated statement of financial position.
For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit on a pro-rata basis based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.
Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the general partners of the Shenzhen Wanxiang that make strategic decisions.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amount receivable for services provided in the normal course of business, net of sales related taxes.
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group charged property management fees in respect of the property management services on a lump sum basis. Revenue is recognised when services are provided.
Property management fees charged on lump sum basis. The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group is entitled to retain the full amount of received property management fees. From the property management fees, the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group pay out their expenses associated with, among others, staff, cleaning, garbage disposal, gardening and landscaping, security and general overhead covering the common areas. During the term of the contract, if the amount of property management fees the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group collect is
– IIB-14 –
APPENDIX IIB — ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF SHENZHEN WANXIANG
not sufficient to cover all the expenses incurred, the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group is not entitled to request the property owners to pay the shortfall.
Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated in the consolidated statement of financial position at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of items.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
The carrying amounts of items of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for indications of impairment at the end of each reporting period. An impairment loss is recognised to the extent that the carrying amount of an asset, or the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, is more than its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset, or of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs, is the greater of its 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 time value of money and the risks specific to the assets. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognised separately from goodwill and are initially recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost). Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination with finite useful lives are reported at costs less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains and losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.
Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, and short term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash, are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and have a short maturity of generally within three months when acquired, less bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s cash management.
For the purpose of the consolidated statements of financial position, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and at banks, including term deposits, and assets similar in nature to cash, which are not restricted as to use.
– IIB-15 –
APPENDIX IIB — ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF SHENZHEN WANXIANG
Leasing
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
Financial assets
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s financial assets are loans and receivables. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets is determined at the time of initial recognition. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables (including trade receivables, other receivables and prepayments, amounts due from a limited partner, general partners and related companies and cash and cash equivalents) are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment (see accounting policy on impairment of financial assets below).
Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables where the recognition of interest would be immaterial.
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period.
Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.
Objective evidence of impairment could include:
- significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or
– IIB-16 –
APPENDIX IIB — ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF SHENZHEN WANXIANG
-
breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest and principal payments; or
-
it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation.
For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Repurchase of the Shenzhen Wanxiang’s own equity instruments is recognised and deducted directly in equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchases, sale, issue or cancellation of the Shenzhen Wanxiang’s own equity instruments.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. Interest expense is recognised on an effective interest basis.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
Financial liabilities (including trade and other payables and accruals, amounts due to a general partner and related companies and borrowings) are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.
– IIB-17 –
APPENDIX IIB — ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF SHENZHEN WANXIANG
Derecognition
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire.
On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss.
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.
Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before taxation’ as reported in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’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 temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally derecognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of 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 associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group 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. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to 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 assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group 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 liabilities or deferred tax assets for investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the carrying amounts of such properties are presumed to be recovered entirely through sale, unless the presumption is rebutted. The presumption is rebutted when the
– IIB-18 –
APPENDIX IIB — ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF SHENZHEN WANXIANG
investment property is depreciable and is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Retirement benefit costs
Payments to the state-managed retirement benefits schemes and the defined contribution retirement benefits plans are recognised as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.
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 added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
Government grants
Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attaching conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the costs, which it is intended to compensate, are expensed.

4 KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s accounting policies, which are described in Note 3, the general partners of Shenzhen Wanxiang are required to make estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the following twelve months.
Impairment of goodwill
Shenzhen Wanxiang Group determines whether goodwill is impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which the goodwill is allocated. Estimating the value in use requires the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the cash-generating units and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The carrying amount of goodwill at 31 December 2014, 31 December 2015, 31 December 2016 and 31 October 2017 was RMB Nil (unaudited), RMB Nil (unaudited), RMB1,485,142,000 and RMB1,485,142,000, respectively. Further details are given in Note 18 to the Historical Financial Information.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group assesses annually whether property, plant and equipment have any indication of impairment, in accordance with relevant accounting policies. The recoverable amounts of property, plant and equipment have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculation and valuations require the use of judgement and estimates on future operating cash flows and discount rates adopted. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment as at 31 December 2014, 31 December 2015, 31 December 2016 and 31 October 2017 amounting to RMB Nil (unaudited), RMB Nil (unaudited), RMB36,103,000 and RMB48,576,000, respectively.
Recoverability of trade receivables, other receivables and prepayments
The provision policy for bad and doubtful debts of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group is based on the evaluation of collectability and aging analysis of accounts and management’s judgement. Judgements are required in assessing the ultimate realisation of these receivables, including the current creditworthiness and the past collection history of each customer. If the financial conditions of customers of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowance may be required.
The carrying amount of trade receivables, other receivables and prepayments as at 31 December 2014, 31 December 2015, 31 December 2016 and 31 October 2017, amounting to RMB Nil (unaudited) (net of
– IIB-20 –
APPENDIX IIB — ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF SHENZHEN WANXIANG
impairment losses of RMB Nil (unaudited)), RMB Nil (unaudited) (net of impairment losses of RMB Nil (unaudited)), RMB195,281,000 (net of impairment losses of RMB9,212,000), and RMB260,062,000 (net of impairment losses of RMB17,594,000), respectively.
5 CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group manages its capital to ensure that the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to owners through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s overall strategy remained unchanged during the Track Record Period.
The capital structure of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group consists of debts, which includes equity attributable to owners of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group, comprising issued paid-in capital and retained earnings.
The management of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group reviews the capital structure regularly. The management considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital and will balance its overall capital structure through payments of dividends, new share issues as well as issue of new debts or repayment of existing debts, if necessary.

(b) Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s major financial instruments are disclosed in respective notes. The risks associated with these financial instruments include market risk (including foreign currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. The management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.
Market risk
Interest rate risk
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s exposure to changes in interest rates is mainly attributable to its bank balances which carries interest at variable rates.
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group is exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to fixed-rate borrowings. The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group currently does not use any derivative contract to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk. However, the management will consider hedging significant interest rate exposure should the need arise.
– IIB-21 –
APPENDIX IIB — ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF SHENZHEN WANXIANG
The management considered that interest rate risk in fixed-rate borrowings is insignificant.
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of each reporting period. The sensitivity analysis is prepared assuming the bank balances and borrowings occurred at the end of the reporting period was occurred for the whole period.
A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates. If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the profit before taxation for the Track Record Period would increase/decrease by RMB Nil (unaudited), RMB Nil (unaudited), RMB1,204,000 and RMB1,493,000, respectively. This is mainly attributable to the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s exposure to interest rates on its variable-rate bank balances.
Foreign currency risk
Given the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group has neither foreign currency assets nor incurs foreign currency liabilities for the Track Record Period, the general partners of the Shenzhen Wanxiang is of the view that the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group does not have any significant concentration of currency risks.
Credit risk
At the end of the reporting period, the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statement of financial position.
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade receivable, other receivables and prepayments, amounts due from a limited partner, general partners and related companies and bank balances.
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual outstanding receivables at the end of the reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amount. In this regard, the general partners of the Shenzhen Wanxiang consider that the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.
The credit risk on bank balances is limited because the majority of the counterparties are banks with good reputation.
The credit risk on amounts due from a limited partner, general partners and related companies are insignificant after considering the financial strength of these related parties.
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group has no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a large number of counterparties and customers.
Liquidity risk
The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group’s objective is to maintain a continuity of funding. The Shenzhen Wanxiang Group also monitors the current and expected liquidity requirements and its compliance with lending covenants regularly to ensure it maintains sufficient working capital and adequate committed lines of funding to meet its liquidity requirement.

(c) Fair value measurements
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.
The general partners of the Shenzhen Wanxiang consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the consolidated financial statements approximate their fair values.

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill above has been allocated to a group of communities managed by Shenzhen Wanxiang collectively as the property management cash-generating units (“ Property Management CGU ”).
During the year ended 31 December 2016 and period ended 31 October 2017, management of Shenzhen Wanxiang determined that there is no impairment of its Property Management CGU containing goodwill arising from the acquisition of businesses.
The recoverable amount of the Property Management CGU has been determined based on a value-in-use calculation. The calculation uses cash flow projection based on financial budgets approved by the management covering a 5-year period and at discount rates which ranges from 14% to 20% per annum as at 31 December 2016 and 31 October 2017. The cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using 5% growth rate.
Cash flow projections during the budget period for the Property Management CGU are based on management’s key estimation of cash inflows/outflows including revenue, gross profit and operating expenses. The assumptions and estimation are based on the Property Management CGU past performance and management’s expectation of market development. The management of Shenzhen Wanxiang believes that any reasonably possible change in the key estimation of the value-in-use calculation would not cause the carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount.

- (b) Issuance of 231,500,000 ordinary shares of the Company (“ Consideration Shares ”).
Since the quoted market price of Consideration Shares at the date of completion of the Transaction may be different, the actual total consideration may change at the actual completion of the Transaction.
- (4) As at the date of this Circular, Fantasia has approximately 72.41% beneficial interests in the issued share capital of the Company and is the controlling shareholder of the Company. Upon the completion of the acquisition of 100% equity interests in Shenzhen Jiaxin and the revision of the terms of the cooperation among the partners, Fantasia obtained effective control over Shenzhen Wanxiang Group on 29 December 2017. For the purpose of presentation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Assets and Liabilities, the date Fantasia obtained control over Shenzhen Wanxiang Group and the date of completion of the Transaction is assumed to be on 30 June 2017. As the ultimate controlling shareholder of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group before and after the Transaction is Fantasia, the Transaction is considered as a combination of businesses under common control and accounted for under merger basis taking into consideration of the requirements under Accounting Guideline 5 “Merger Accounting for Common Control Combinations”.
In accordance with HKFRS 3 “Business Combination”, the pro forma fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group by Fantasia as at 30 June 2017 are as follows, which are assumed to be same as those identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group by the Company.
| Property, plant and equipment Intangible assets (i) Deferred tax assets Trade receivables Other receivables and prepayments Tax recoverable Amount due from a previous joint venture partner Amount due from a party related to a previous joint venture partner Amount due from a fellow subsidiary of the Company Bank balances and cash Trade payables Other payables and accruals Amounts due to fellow subsidiaries of the Company Tax liabilities Borrowings Deferred tax liabilities (ii) Long-term payable to a previous joint venture partner (iii) |

-
(i) The fair value of Fantasia’s previously held interests in Shenzhen Wanxiang Group, which represent the 1% equity interests in Wanxiangmei accounted for as an available-for-sale investment by Fantasia and the 50% beneficial interests in Shenzhen Wanxiang accounted for as a joint venture by Fantasia, is estimated by an independent valuer and the key inputs of the valuation are the expected future cash inflows/outflows of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group, the growth rates and the discount rates.
-
(ii) The deferred tax has been provided for in respect of the tax effect of the intangible assets, which relate to the property management contracts dominated in the PRC by application of the tax rate of 25%.
-
(iii) Upon revision of the terms of cooperation of Shenzhen Wanxiang among the joint venture partners, Shenzhen Wanxiang has the obligation to repay the investment of RMB1,000,000,000 by a joint venture partner. Had the acquisition of Shenzhen Wanxiang been completed on 30 June 2017, the investment by the joint venture partner would be reclassified to non-current liabilities.
The fair value of Fantasia’s previously held interests in Shenzhen Wanxiang Group, which represent the 1% equity interests in WXM accounted for as an available-for-sale investment by Fantasia and the 50% beneficial interests in Shenzhen Wanxiang accounted for as a joint venture by Fantasia, is estimated by an independent valuer and the key inputs of the valuation are the expected future cash inflows/outflows of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group, the growth rates and the discount rates.
Goodwill is determined as the excess of the consideration paid by Fantasia and the fair value of Fantasia’s previously held equity interests in Shenzhen Wanxiang Group upon obtaining the control over the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The goodwill is analysed as follows:
| Cash consideration paid by Fantasia for acquisition of 100% equity interests in Shenzhen Jiaxin Fair value of Fantasia’s previously held interests in Shenzhen Wanxiang Group Pro forma fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group Goodwill arising from the Transaction |
RMB’000 992,520 677,983 |
|---|---|
| 1,670,503 47,647 |
|
| 1,622,856 |
Since the purchase price allocation regarding the acquisition of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group by Fantasia in accordance with HKFRS 3 “Business Combination” is not completed and the fair values of the net identifiable assets and liabilities of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group may change at the actual date Fantasia obtained control over Shenzhen Wanxiang Group, the amount of goodwill recognised by Fantasia and the Group may be different.
For the purpose of the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Group enlarged by the Transaction, the Group’s management has performed an impairment assessment on the provisional goodwill and intangible assets arising from the Transaction in accordance with Hong Kong Accounting Standard 36 “Impairment of Assets” (“ HKAS 36 ”) and concluded that there would have been no impairment of the goodwill or the intangible assets if the Transaction had been completed on 30 June 2017 for the purpose of unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of assets and liabilities. The recoverable amount under impairment assessment was derived based on the value-in-use calculations. That calculations used cash flows projections based on financial budgets as approved by management of the Shenzhen Wanxiang Group covering five years’ period, assuming that (i) there are no material adverse changes in the fair values of the assets and liabilities of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group; and (ii) the identifiable assets and
– IV-8 –
APPENDIX IV — UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP
liabilities can be realised at their carrying amounts. However, should there be any adverse changes to the business of Shenzhen Wanxiang Group, including but not limited to, any subsequent adverse changes in the operation, impairment may be required to be recognised against the provisional goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with HKAS 36 and the Group’s accounting policies.
The Directors confirmed that they will adopt consistent approach to assess impairment of goodwill and intangible assets in subsequent reporting periods in accordance with the requirements of HKAS 36 and will disclose in the Group’s annual report the basis and assumptions adopted by the Directors in the impairment assessment in accordance with the disclosure requirements in HKAS 36.

(5) The adjustment represents consolidation entry for the elimination of the inter-group balances between the Group and Shenzhen Wanxiang Group.
-
(6) The adjustment represents the estimated expenditures incurred directly in connection with the Transaction which is charged to profit or loss of the Group including the accountancy, legal, valuation and other professional services fees to be borne by the Group of approximately RMB9,750,000.

Dear Sirs
Re: Valuation of 100% Equity Interest of the Target Group Comprising the Link Joy Holdings Group Co., Limited, Shenzhen Fantasia Education Consulting Co., Ltd. and their Directly or Indirectly Held Subsidiaries
We refer to the instruction from Colour Life Services Group Co., Limited (the “ Instructing Party ”) to express our independent opinion on the market value of the 100% equity interest of the Target Group which comprises the Link Joy Holdings Group Co., Limited (herein referred to as “ Company D ”), Shenzhen Fantasia Education Consulting Co.

Among all the subsidiaries directly or indirectly held by Company D and Company B, WXM Group is the only one having business revenue and business operations, while the others are mainly for the purpose of holding only. Therefore, we are instructed to provide a separate independent opinion on the market value of the 100% equity interest of the WXM Group.
We confirm that we have made relevant investigation, enquiries and obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing our opinion of market value as at 30 November 2017 (the “ Valuation Date ”).

APPENDIX V
1. BASIS OF VALUATION
We have observed and followed the standards laid down by “The HKIS Valuation Standards” (2017 Edition) published by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors and “International Valuation standards” (the “ IVS ”) published by the International Valuation Standards Council.
Our valuation is conducted on market value basis. Market value is defined as:
“ the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction, after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion ”.
2. COMPANY ANALYSIS & INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
Link Joy Holdings Group Co., Limited (or Company D) is a limited corporation registered in Cayman. From January 2017 to November 2017, it generates no revenue or expense. As one of the holding company, it has no business operation in reality but the purpose is for holding subsidiaries only.
Link Joy (HK) Co., Ltd (or Company C) is a limited corporation established in Hong Kong, and it is a subsidiary of Company D. From January 2017 to November 2017, it generates no revenue but a slight of expense. It has no business operation in reality but undertakes some transactions with Fantasia. The purpose of Company C is being a holding company.
Shenzhen Fantasia Education Consulting Co., Ltd (or Company B) is a corporation established in PRC, China, and its scope of business covers culture & education consultancy, enterprise marketing planning, and translation. However, there is no revenue or expense for this company from January 2017 to November 2017. No real business is operated in reality. The purpose of Company B is being a holding company.
Shenzhen Xingfu Wanxiang Investment Partnership Limited Co. (Limited Partnership) is established in PRC, China, and its scope of business covers various investment management or advisory services. In fact, from January 2017 to November 2017, no revenue is generated but some expenses. It has no business operation in reality but undertakes some transactions with Fantasia. The purpose of this company is being a holding company.
During our investigation, we found expect WXM Group, all the other holding companies are either totally or almost shell companies which have either nil or very limited assets in their accounts. Most of them have either no or only internal transactions or transactions with Fantasia. Out of this concern, we conduct the valuation of 100% equity of WXM Group first, and deal with its holding companies by adding in the book value of their assets after reasonable elimination. Indeed, the value of WXM Group’s holdings companies contribute a slight portion of value in this valuation.

VALUATION REPORT OF EQUITY INTEREST OF THE TARGET GROUP
APPENDIX V
In terms of property management industry, it commenced in 1980s, property management services are recognized by the inception of Shenzhen Property Management Services Limited. After that, the introduction of “Property Management Regulations” confirmed that the industry is managed by more ascertained rules. According to the statistics shown in “2015 National Property Management Industry Development Report”, by the end of 2014, there were more than 105,000 property management companies in the PRC with total managed area more than 16.45 billion square meters. Employee numbers in the industry also grow rapidly from 6.12 million in 2012 to 7.11 million in 2014. Throughout the statistics in “2015 National Property Management Industry Development Report”, the industry has been seen a gradually converged evolution as Top 100 property management enterprises had a significant growth to manage 28.4% of the total managed area in 2015, contrasted by a percentage of 19.5% in 2014. Among Top 100 companies in the industry, 24 of them got a revenue more than RMB1 billion in 2015, comparing the number of 15 in 2014.
Residential buildings are the mainstream among all types of properties managed, and make up 80% of the total areas of the property managed. It means offices, industrial buildings and shopping malls only occupied less than 20% of the areas. Property management services seriously rely on the area of established buildings and new constructed buildings, and in return the supply and demand in real estate industry will impose a material influence on the revenue of the property management industry. In fact, during the year 2015, new established residential buildings accounted for an area of 738 million square meters, making up 73.5% of the whole newly established buildings in 2015. At the same time, with the maturing of community economy in China, leading companies in property management industry showed more desire in the residential buildings’ management business.
Furthermore, property management industry is a labor-intensive industry. Leading companies inside the industry are always keen on subcontracting fundamental property services, such as cleaning and maintenance services to the third party. Current prosperous situation in the industry in fact moderates the unemployment rate to some extent. According to the “2016 China Top 100 Property Management Company Research Report”, the average salary expense, cleaning expense, maintenance expense and gardening expense makes up 56.79%, 8.38%, 5.08% and 2.45% respectively in 2015 for the Top 100 companies. Top 100 companies in the industry are keen on subcontracting low-value-added works to other companies. The manpower they obtained by subcontracting made up to around 30% of their non-management level manpower.
For the perspective of the industry, economic of scale will be more obvious and the competition will be more intensive in the industry. Mergers and acquisitions among companies will be more frequent, leading the resources a better consolidation. More information technologies will be applied to the industry, such as automotive response, software upgrade, hardware upgrade etc. These new technologies are sure to distinguish current top companies in the industry more professional and more competitive in different sub areas, including elderly care, child care, health care, culture communication or maintenance. The upgrade in software
– V-3 –

APPENDIX V
and hardware can fulfill the requirements such as power saving, remote monitoring and automaintenance. The utilization of high technology also facilitates the reduction of repetitive works, and reduces the required input of human labor and time.
Capital markets start to show the interest in property management companies when the industry is now more well-regulated and the economic value of the community linkage they possessed. The listing of Colour Life Services Group Co., Limited in 2014 is deemed as a milestone, as the first Chinese property management company listed in Hong Kong. Thereafter, a couple of Chinese property companies came to Hong Kong to do equity financing. Currently, Colour Life Services Group Co. Limited, China Overseas Property Holdings Ltd, Zhong-Ao Home Group, Greentown Service Group have listed in Hong Kong main board and around 30 property management companies listed on NEEQ (National Equities Exchange and Quotations). Capital markets boost the development of prominent property management companies, and offer more opportunities to outstanding ones by providing better source of financing and international expertise.
3. BACKGROUND OF WXM GROUP
WXM Group is a comprehensive property management services provider established in 2015. After absorbing by a joint venture entity under Fantasia Group in 2016, WXM Group enhanced its service quality by providing various property management services for projects including but not limit to normal residential properties, deluxe residential properties, various office buildings, SOHO and commercial properties in an effective way. Up to now, WXM Group has already managed more than 130 projects located in different tier 1, tier 2 and tier 3 cities in mainland China, and the most of the projects are properties set up by Wanda Group beforehand.
Operation revenue has soared in 2016, with a 51% growth rate to RMB16 billion. We believe that aggressive project expansion and effective cost control leads WXM Group to be ranked No. 8 in terms of managed area among property management enterprises in China and be ranked No. 4 in terms of the growth rate in “2016 Top 100 Property Management Corporations Research Report”.
Relying on the resources of community service owned by Fantasia Group, WXM Group targets to fortify its brand and human resources and play a more influential role in community services and property management services. Meanwhile, WXM Group targets to utilize more internet resources to fulfill its ambition in elderly care, financial services and culture & travel aspect.
4. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGIES
There are three generally accepted valuation approaches for the valuation of equity interest.
– V-4 –
VALUATION REPORT OF EQUITY INTEREST OF THE TARGET GROUP
APPENDIX V
Asset-based Approach
Asset-based approach is based on evaluating the value of different assets on individual basis and sum up to the overall value of assets. Usually, the cost of replacing certain types of assets is estimated by valuers. Asset-based approach is wildly used for static valuation purpose, such as liquidation or for transactions based on certain sorts of assets, instead of the company as whole. The reason is that it takes no consideration of the development plan and corporate operation in the future.
Income Approach
Income approach is an approach with income-oriented vision, emphasizing the income condition of investing to a resemble business, but unnecessary to be the same with the target business.
Under the income approach, target value (company or other types of assets) equals to the present value of the future expected income of its businesses, which involves the principle of capitalization. Moreover, capitalization is a process by which the expected incomes are discounted based on certain required rate of return (risk factors).
Market Approach
Market approach is a straightforward valuation method in identifying market value of assets. Under this approach, valuers seek to identify appropriate precedent transaction cases having been executed and certified as a reference for comparable cases. Despite a straightforward approach, market approach is normally difficult to apply to certain unique business, as there are insufficient precedent transactions for comparing with.
5. SELECTION OF ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
After considering all three methods described above, we have selected the asset-based approach to evaluate the value of the 100% equity interest of the Target Group after using the market approach to value the 100% equity interest of WXM Group.
We believe the asset-based approach to be insufficient in capturing the future economic benefits of the WXM Group’s assets given that the WXM Group is a servicing company in which the return is not mainly driven by its tangible assets. Income approach is more suitable for companies with positive net free cash flow, under going concern and business condition that can be forecasted with reasonable accuracy. Market approach may require valuers to scrutinize precedent transactions in the same industry, and compare relevant transaction multiples such as their Price-to-Earning (P/E) ratio, Price-to-Sales (P/S) ratio, Price-to-Book (P/B) ratio or etc to identify a reliable transaction multiple for the target company after valuation experts’ adjustment.
– V-5 –
VALUATION REPORT OF EQUITY INTEREST OF THE TARGET GROUP
APPENDIX V
When comparing between the income approach and market approach, income approach usually relies more heavily on the reasonable forecast of future performance and the accurate selection of various market parameters, and the valuation result is sometimes quite sensitive to a few market parameters. In contrast, market approach is relatively more direct in term of forecast and market parameters if available. In this case, we can find some suitable public and private precedent M&A transactions of property management companies which can provide us a more reliable valuation result than the income approach. Therefore, we finally consider market approach as the final valuation approach for WXM Group.
Since all the other companies in the Target Group are mainly for the purpose of holding only with no business revenue and operations, we consider that asset-based approach is an appropriate method to evaluate the Target Group.
6. DISCUSSION OF 2016 & 2017 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF WXM GROUP
Profit & Loss Situation
We have performed our valuation based on the financial statements provided by the external independent auditors appointed by the Instructing Party. Since WXM Group was reorganized after being acquired from Wanda Group in second half of 2016, our analysis mainly focuses on the annual profit & loss account in 2016 and especially the interim profit & loss account in 2017. In accordance of the financial statements, some main margins are recorded as: the gross profit margin in 2016 and first half of 2017 are 24.66% and 35.77% respectively; and the net profit margin is 1.6% and 17.6% respectively.
Revenue
The revenue of the WXM Group for the first half of 2017 includes direct property management service fee, sales & promotion fee, professional fee, registration fee, car park management fee and some miscellaneous fee.
Property management fee is due to the WXM Group provides direct property management services to near 200 property projects as per contract. The projects are located in diversified provinces in China, and most of the properties are residential buildings and offices developed by Wanda Group before. Property management service is charged in light of chargeable area times unit price per square meter. The property management service contracts signed between the WXM Group and developers are usually 3–5 years, expecting to see a robust renew rate when the contracts expire. Besides, the Management suggests another 48 properties will become their new clients by 2019.
Sales & promotion fee is generated from the secondment service by sending their employees to be sales executive/assistant for developers. With abundant connections between Wanda Group, who demands sales person for their property sales, the secondment service provides the WXM Group satisfactory income.
– V-6 –
VALUATION REPORT OF EQUITY INTEREST OF THE TARGET GROUP
APPENDIX V
Registration fee is mainly obtained from new constructed properties. After the completion of building construction but before the transfer of ownership to buyers, the developer usually requires property management companies to enter in advance for cleaning, decoration, and other assorted services. The fee is usually paid by the developer of the new constructed buildings.
Car park management fee is aroused by car park management service provided to individual or company users. Besides, the WXM Group also provides car park maintenance services for internal (the property under their service) and external (public car park owner or other property management companies) use to earn money.
Miscellaneous fee includes area management fee, marketing fee and cleaning fee etc. This income illustrates a strong relation with property management fee, and denotes approximately 15% in the whole revenue of first half of 2017.
Cost of Goods Sold
The cost of goods sold mainly covers payroll expense of certain employees, energy expense, and cleaning expense. The cost of goods sold of the first half year of 2017 contributes to 64.23% of the total revenue (i.e. the gross profit margin is 35.77%).
The payroll expense only calculates the payroll expense for whom directly involved in their services provided. It mainly includes the salary and bonus for staff providing security, cleaning and maintenance services. In the first half of 2017, payroll expense occupies a significant share – 50% of cost of goods sold.
The energy expense contains various overhead cost such as electricity, water, gas and coal expense for service use only. Energy expense contributes to largely 15% for the cost of goods sold for the first half year in 2017.
Cleaning cost is the third largest expense which covers the various expense including cleaning tools and equipment expense for cleaning service used. This expense takes up almost 15% of cost of goods sold in the first half of 2017.
Management Cost
Management cost contains expenses that indirectly support the revenue and business development, and for this case, it contains: agency fee, insurance fee, payroll expense, depreciation and amortization etc.
Agency fee is the expense paid to agents for various advisories. This part mainly covers the property advisory fee, and as per contract, property advisory fee is charged at 5% of the total revenue per annum.
– V-7 –
VALUATION REPORT OF EQUITY INTEREST OF THE TARGET GROUP
APPENDIX V
Insurance fee is the insurance cost covering 5 types of insurances paid for employees and other security related insurances paid for employees working under dangerous circumstances.
Payroll expense involves salary and bonus paid to management and staff who indirectly involved in the services the WXM Group provide. As the WXM Group cut off redundant human resource in 2016, this account takes up merely a small percentage to total management cost in 2017.
Depreciation strictly complies with straight line basis, and occurs on fixed assets including buildings, electronic devices and transportation equipment. New capital expenditure for electronic devices and transport equipment happened in this year makes up 10% and 20% of asset original value respectively. Amortization is due to the office software the WXM Group have bought, with straight line method. The long term amortization cost happens on several sums of one-time renovation expenditure with beneficial period a couple of years. Likewise, long-term amortization amortizes at a same amount each year.
Finance Cost
Currently, the finance cost mainly involves in the commission fee required by POS terminal and commercial banks when making transactions. Meanwhile, WXM Group incurred around RMB2 million interest expense in the first ten months of 2017.
Taxation
The comprehensive tax rate (enterprise profit tax) largely equals to standard PRC enterprise profit tax rate, i.e. 25% in 2017. Business affiliated tax has been deducted before deriving EBIT.
7. EARNING NORMALIZATION
The latest audited financial accounts of WXM Group provided to us is of the period January – October 2017. By the end of October 2017, WXM Group has recognized a net income of RMB235,029,000 in 2017, which equals to an average monthly net income of RMB23,502,900. In the mid-year report, WXM Group has recognized a net income of RMB128,762,144, which equals to an average monthly net income of RMB21,460,357. The average monthly net income has been relatively stable. After scrutinizing relevant accounts from January to October 2017, conducting the necessary investigation and interviews with the Target Group’s representative, no material non-recurring expense is brought to valuer’s attention.
– V-8 –
VALUATION REPORT OF EQUITY INTEREST OF THE TARGET GROUP
APPENDIX V
The above evidence indicates a relatively stable operation condition with no significant non-recurring incomes and expenses found. We are in the opinion that the financial performance in the first 10 months of 2017 is a good and reliable representation of the earning capability of the WXM Group as at 30 November 2017. As a result, we adopted the actual financial results of the WXM Group from January to October for the yearly net income adopted in our valuation, i.e. a yearly net income of RMB282,034,800 which is equivalent to a monthly net income of RMB23,502,900 derived from the average of the actual net income achieved by the WXM Group from January to October in 2017.
8. COMPARABLE TRANSACTIONS
In order to compare the P/E ratio of comparable transactions, we finally found 4 comparable transactions occurred from 2014 to 2017.

VALUATION REPORT OF EQUITY INTEREST OF THE TARGET GROUP
APPENDIX V
The abovementioned four transactions are the best transactions we collected which most comparable to the valuation of WXM Group. We conducted a series of adjustment on the unadjusted P/E ratio derived from these precedent transactions, including but not limited to the following criteria:
-
Possible established economy of scale after the transaction
-
Discounts for lack of control
-
Discounts for lack of marketability
-
Adjusting trailing P/E to leading P/E
-
Indenture condition and risk of default
-
Discounts for CEO or core management team departure
After these adjustments, we put equal weighting to each of the transaction and calculate the weighted average adjusted P/E ratio. After the abovementioned adjustments on P/E, an adjusted P/E of 11.68 was derived, and in conclusion, the 100% equity interest of WXM Group was RMB3,294,000,000.
9. VALUATION OF THE TARGET GROUP
In order to determine the value of 100% equity interest of the Target Group by asset-based approach, we comprised a pro-forma balance sheet of all the companies in the Target Group. We eliminated internal transactions and adopted the market value of the 100% equity interest of WXM Group valued by us, i.e. RMB3,294,000,000 in replace of the long term investment in the book, i.e. RMB980,000,000.
According to the “About Shenzhen Xingfu Wangxiang Investment Partnership Co. (Limited Partnership) – Co-operation Agreement – Supplementary Agreement”, the shares held by Greatwall Jiaxin Asset Management Co., Ltd. should be treated as loan lending to the Wanxiang as it explicitly states an expected 8.63% annual return should be paid when there is an acquisition taken place like this. We therefore derived the 100% beneficial interest of Wanxiang with the conversion of the registered capital of RMB1,000,000,000 to debt payable of RMB1,122,258,333 for our valuation because RMB1,122,258,333 is the real cost to be undertaken by the buyer for acquiring Wanxiang.

In this valuation process, we obtain financial material either from the audit team appointed by the client or provided by the client per se .

There will be no material changes in politics, laws, rules or regulations, or financial or economic or market conditions where WXM Group currently operates which may materially and adversely affect the operations of the property management business.
There will be no major changes in the current taxation law in China where WXM Group currently operates which will materially affect the profits, that the rates of tax payable remain unchanged and that all applicable laws and regulations in relation to taxation in China will be complied with.
