Management Discussion and Analysis
BUSINESS REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
Strong Market Potential under China’s “New Economy”
The global economy is full of complexes and challenges in 2016. Incidents including geopolitics, US rate hike, Sino US ties and Brexit continue to bring uncertainties to the outlook of the global economy. In China, the quality of economic development has improved as the government continues to deepen its economic structural reform. The government is also making efforts to seek progress and to achieve an appropriate expansion of aggregate demand to encourage sustainable development, and to strengthen the nation’s competitiveness by promoting environmental protection, emission reduction and actively developing low-carbon industries.
The domestic property market in China rebounded and then stabilized in 2016. During the first half of the year, the national policies of inventory clearance and monetary easing continued to show effects and led to the increase of both property sales and prices, which were significant particularly in core tier 1 or 2 cities. In order to prevent the risk of bubbles caused by rapid increase of the property prices and to ensure the healthy development of the sector in the long term, the government has launched city-specific and adaptive policies since the second half of the year, causing the transactions in major cities to drop. However, the national sales of commodity housing recorded a historical high during the year, with the total floor area sold increased 22.5% year-on-year to 1,573 million sq.m., and the national sales amount increased 34.8% year-on-year to RMB11.76 trillion. The accelerated of national property sales led to an increase of real estate investment as the national REI increased 6.9% year-on-year to RMB10,258 billion.
On the other hand, as an important national sector, the construction industry saw an annual output of RMB19.35 trillion in 2016, representing a year-on-year growth of 7.1% and is equivalent to 26.0% of China’s GDP. The Construction PMI maintained at above 60% since August 2016 and the New Orders Index kept rising and steadied at above the threshold for several consecutive months, indicating the construction sector maintains expansion momentum and the demand for construction had increased steadily. Currently, the country is actively promoting the development of prefabricated construction industry, and the local governments have been rolling out favorable policies.

BUSINESS REVIEW AND PROSPECTS (continued)
Becoming a Competitive Player in the Prefabricated Construction Industry
The Company focuses on technological innovation and advocates the combination of advanced technology with traditional construction. With the desire to promote the upgrade and transformation of the construction industry, it is the Company’s aim to become a pioneer and a competitive player in the prefabricated construction industry. The Group adopts the national guiding principle to develop green construction in order to save energy, reduce carbon emission and promote sustainable development. In 2016, the Group made notable progress in terms of construction of Green Technology Parks, technology R&D, product R&D and market development.
Investment on Technology Parks to Achieve Economies of Scale
Prefabricated construction needs to dilute costs and increase profit margins through the scale effect. The Group has made investment in Technology Parks in Foshan, Hangzhou, Hengyang, Huizhou, Kunshan and Nanjing. These Technology Parks will provide a one-stop construction solution, including R&D, design, manufacturing and sales of intelligent and green building construction technology and modules for prefabricated construction. At present, the Group has completed the construction of and started trial operation for its Technology Parks in Hangzhou (Phase 1), Hengyang (Phase 1), Huizhou, Kunshan and Nanjing (Phase 1).
Besides, the Group has formed a joint venture with a non-wholly owned subsidiary of China Minsheng Jiaye Investment Co., Ltd to jointly develop the Industrial Park in Changsha. Currently, phase one of the Industrial Park has started operation. Phase two is scheduled to be constructed during 2017, which will include the construction of facilities for manufacturing prefabricated units for buildings with specific purposes, such as full bathroom suites, country villas and color panels.
Modern Construction Technology to Develop High Quality Products
Prefabricated construction is a high-technology based industry featuring professional design, auto production and information management. It transforms extensive conventional on-site operations into fine manufacturing in the factory. Such benefits include increasing productivity, reducing to a large extent the environmental pollution, waste, labor cost, material and energy consumption caused by construction and improving the quality of the construction engineering and the building. In 2016, the Group made breakthroughs in the development of patented R&D. It filed over 400 patent applications with the State Intellectual Property Office throughout the year, ahead of its peers.
The Group focuses on the R&D and manufacturing of precast concrete (“PC”) components, including PC exterior wall, PC beam, PC floor, PC pillar and PC staircase, which are used in the construction of large property projects. PC components enjoy the advantages of high density, heat insulation, sound isolation, fireproof, sturdy and durable and malleable and can be mass produced according to the customer’s need. Since mid-2016, the Group has been actively expanding its customer base and has entered into prefabricated construction components supply contracts with a variety of independent customers (including large-scale property developers, contractors and construction suppliers). As at February 2017, the total contracted sales derived from such supply contracts with independent customers amounted to approximately RMB130 million.

BUSINESS REVIEW AND PROSPECTS (continued)
Business Prospect
The year 2017 will be a year when the Group targets to achieves rapid business growth. As the Technology Parks and the Industrial Park start operation, together with favorable policies in support of prefabricated construction, the Group expects that its PC components production capacity will increase to approximately 410,000 to 550,000 cubic meter, which may cause the potential sales to increase significantly. The Group will continue its endeavors to broaden its customer base by strengthening its marketing capabilities and expanding its sales network. The marketing teams will attend various product exhibitions and organize onsite product demonstration exhibitions from time to time to increase the profile and branding of the Group’s prefabricated construction business. Given the trends of urbanization, the Group is exploring business opportunities to get involved in both public and private property development projects, striving to obtain orders for government-sponsored housing projects, commodity housing projects and urban infrastructures that feature high degree of standardization.
On 13 March 2017, the Company and China Minsheng Drawin Construction Co., Ltd.* (“CMDC”, or “CMDC Group“) entered into the framework agreement, pursuant to which, the Group agreed to supply prefabricated construction components to the CMDC Group for construction projects engaged by third party developers or contractors (the “Supply Arrangement”). The proposed annual cap of the Supply Arrangement is RMB476 million. Such collaboration will enable the Group to fully realise the strategic capability presented by its prefabricated construction business and provide an additional source of income to the Group, which will improve its revenue and profit. The transactions contemplated under the Supply Arrangement constitute continuing connected transactions, and are subject to annual review, reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval (which is yet to be obtained) requirements under Chapter 14A to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities (the “Listing Rules”) on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”).
In terms of rural villa market development, following the nation’s call for developing beautiful villages and special towns, the Group will launch prefabricated villas for sale in 2017 to the basic end users, upgraders and high-end customers in villages.
Meanwhile, the Group will continue to explore opportunities for developing additional Technology Parks, including forming joint ventures and other alliances, with an expectation to make further two to three Technology Parks investments in 2017. The Group favors investments in provincial cities where economies are vibrant, market potential is high, the level of acceptability for prefabricated construction or support from local governments is high, and infrastructure and logistics are well established.
Besides, the Group will provide design consultation service regarding prefabricated construction in addition to considering outsourcing prefabricated construction platforms and related technologies to traditional contractors, thereby assisting them in their attempt to reform while allowing the Group to be more influential and gain a bigger market share.
Looking forward, the Group will strive hard to grow its business and improve its financial and operating performance and in doing so, will enable the Company’s shareholders to benefit from the growth.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued)
Directors’ Continuous Professional Development
To ensure their contributions to the Board remain informed and relevant, all the Directors are encouraged to participate in continuous professional development to develop and refresh their knowledge and skill.
During the year, all the Directors were provided with regular updates and presentations on changes and developments of the Group’s business and the latest developments in laws, rules and regulations relating to director’s duties and responsibilities.
The Company organised two in-house seminars conducted by an international law firm in May and July 2016. Most of the Directors (including Mr. Yin Jun, Mr. Chen Domingo, Mr. Mi Hongjun, Mr. Chen Donghui, Ms. Gan Ping, Mr. Zhao Xiaodong and Mr. Ma Lishan) and certain senior management of the Company attended both seminars separately. For the year ended 31 December 2016, all of the Directors confirmed that they have obtained sufficient continuous professional development training.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Code provision A.2.1 of the Code states that the roles of chairman and chief executive officer should be separate and should not be performed by the same individual. The Chairman provides leadership for the Board and ensures that the Board works effectively and discharges its responsibility whilst the chief executive officer of the Company has overall chief executive responsibility for the Group’s business development and day-to-day management generally.
Mr. Yin Jun, being the chief executive officer of the Company, was appointed as chairman of the Board on 3 October 2016. In view of the current rapid development of the Group, the Board believes that vesting the roles of both chairman of the Board and chief executive officer in the same person can facilitate the execution of the Group’s business strategies and boost effectiveness of its operation. In addition, under the supervision of the Board which comprised three executive Directors, four non-executive Directors, and four independent non-executive Directors, the interests of the shareholders of the Company will be adequately and fairly represented. The Company may seek to re-comply with code provision A.2.1 by identifying and appointing a suitable and qualified candidate to the position of the chief executive officer in due course by considering the business needs and developments of the Group.
Appointment and Re-election of Directors
Each of the non-executive Directors has entered into an appointment letter with the Company for a term of two years, except for Mr. Zhou Feng. Code provision A.4.1 of the Code requires that non-executive directors should be appointed for a specific term, subject to re-election. One of the non-executive Directors, Mr. Zhou Feng, is not appointed for a specific term, but is subject to retirement from office by rotation and re-election in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s bye-laws. At each annual general meeting, one-third of the directors for the time being, (or, if their number is not a multiple of three, the number nearest to but not less than one-third) shall retire from office by rotation, provided that every director shall be subject to retirement by rotation at least once every three years. As such, the Company considers that such provision is sufficient to meet the underlying objective of this code provision.
According to the bye-laws of the Company (the “Bye-laws”), Directors appointed to fill casual vacancies shall hold office until the next following general meeting and can be eligible for re-appointment at that time.
Insurance of the Directors and Officers
The Company has bought liability insurance for Directors and officers in respect of legal action against the Directors and officers which is in compliance with Code provision A.1.8 of the Code.

The existing Remuneration Committee will continue to make recommendations to the Board on the Company’s remuneration policy and structure for all Directors and senior management of the Group, and to ensure that no Director or any of his associates will participate in deciding his own remuneration.
RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROLS
The Board is responsible for ensuring sound and effective risk management and internal control systems to safeguard the shareholders’ interests and the Company’s assets. The risk management and internal control systems are designed to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure to achieve business objectives, and can only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss.
During the year ended 31 December 2016, the Group conducts an annual review on whether there is a need for an internal audit department. Given the Group’s simple operating structure, as opposed to a separate internal audit department, the Board is directly responsible for internal control of the Group and for reviewing its effectiveness.
The Board conducts a review on the internal control system of the Group on an annual basis and has the responsibility to maintain an effective internal control system. The Board also reviews and monitors the effectiveness of the internal control and risk management systems on a regular basis to ensure that the systems in place are adequate. The Group’s internal control system is comprised of a system of controlled management wherein various authoritative limits are placed to ensure that the Group is able to supervise, control and assess various functions within Group. The system further permits the Group to safeguard its accounting records to minimize material errors in order to provide financial information as accurately as possible.
During the year ended 31 December 2016, the Company engaged an external independent consultant to conduct a review on the internal control system of the Group in order to maintain high standards of corporate governance. The Board has also reviewed the adequacy of resources, staff qualifications and experience, training programmes and budget of the Company’s accounting and financial reporting function. Based on the above, the Board is of the view that the Company has established a proper internal control system which is effective and adequate.
AUDITOR’S REMUNERATION
During the year ended 31 December 2016, remuneration in respect of audit and non-audit services provided by the auditor of the Company to the Group was approximately HK$1.4 million and HK$250,000 respectively.

Environmental, Social and Governance Report
To support the China national strategy on innovation and green growth, the Group has a mission to accelerate the reform of the conventional construction, which traditionally, is labeled as a labor intensive, dangerous, and polluting industry. We, therefore, have focused our development on industrialized construction through the establishment of Technology Parks in China and the investment in innovative technology development. The large-scale construction mode not only reduces labor cost, but also effectively improves safety and alleviates some of the burden to the environment.
The Group is aware of the shifting concerns from the stakeholders that profit is no longer the only priority to sustain our business. To show our dedication to being accountable to the environment and society, we prepared this first Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report to share our ESG practices in the financial year of 2016. The ESG Report was prepared according to Appendix 27 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities set by the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEx), in which the Group only makes reference to the General Disclosures. The information focuses on the six Technology Parks in Changsha, Hengyang, Huizhou, Kunshan, Hangzhou and Nanjing, and includes a commercial property in Shandong.
The ESG Report was formulated to align with the benefits of industrialized construction, as well as the major concerns from the stakeholders as identified during the stakeholder engagement process, with four main focuses:
| Environmental Reduce resources use and waste generation |
Quality Innvovative technology and better quality control |
Safety Construct offsite in enclosed environment |
Community Fulfll the need of the community |
|||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
With the desire to promote the transformation of the construction industry, we have developed a preliminary industrialized construction technology system that covers different sections of the industrial chains, as well as filed for more than 400 patent applications. As of now, the Group has completed the construction of and started trial operation of six Technology Parks and Industrial Park in total. We are confident that the use of modern technology will improve the quality and effectiveness of construction, as well as reduces carbon emissions to meet the community needs.
For any comment of this ESG report, please feel free to contact us through email at [email protected].
STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT AND MATERIALITY ASSESSMENT
The opinions and views of our stakeholders are important guidances to shape our sustainability strategy and future plans. In order to understand stakeholders’ view on ESG and identify which specific issues are the most influential topics to the Group from the stakeholders’ perspectives, we launched an online questionnaire during the year. Throughout the process, opinions were collected from multiple fields of stakeholders, including the Directors, employees, and investors.
The questionnaire contained a set of rating questions that allowed stakeholders to determine the importance and relativity of each sustainability indicator to the operations. From the collected results, we have identified seven material issues that are both important to our business and our stakeholders.

ENVIRONMENT
Industrialized construction of residential buildings has obvious advantages compared with the traditional construction methods. Apart from higher productivity and better quality control, the amount of energy saved is remarkable. Prefabrication is, therefore, an environment-friendly technology and a low-carbon industry. Apart from ensuring all relevant laws and regulations are met, we are committed to promoting clean production – to reduce generation of pollutants and conserve energy and other resources.

ENVIRONMENT (continued)
Adhering to the principle of “giving priority to protection, focusing on prevention, conducting comprehensive treatment”, a group environmental management procedure was developed.
Every year, we identify the significant environmental impacts within our operation, set the targets and formulate control measures to address the issues and prevent risks from non-compliance, hazardous waste, pollutant emissions and resources usage.
Training was also provided to our employees to raise their awareness and competence on environmental protection.

Air Emissions
Dust is the major air pollutant during the construction of technology parks and within our operation. To prevent or reduce dust generation, raw materials such as cement, sand and gravel were transported by covered trucks or in enclosed containers, and stored in fully enclosed areas. Water was sprinkled regularly to alleviate potential dust emissions in various areas of the site. The following were also installed:
-
Water spray nozzle in sand yard to keep the moisture of the sand pile surface and thus reduce dust generation;
-
Baghouse dust collectors in mixing stations to remove dust before emitting to the atmosphere; and
-
Mist system to maintain the air humidity of the finished product yard and thus, reduce the amount of dust produced in open air area.
Other pollutants generated during the operation include welding fumes and cooking fumes. A mechanical ventilation system was installed to exhaust welding fumes to the outdoor, while kitchen fumes were sent to a purification system before discharging to the atmosphere. We also used less toxic welding rods to minimize soot concentration and toxicity.
Energy Use and Carbon Emissions
We strive to implement low-carbon building technologies from product design to manufacturing, energy conservation is, therefore, the priority within our operation. We are not only concerned about energy saving within our operation, but we also care about how energy can be conserved during the construction and operation of buildings. Developing new technologies in building material, architectural design and manufacturing is, therefore, our emphasis, for example, the building materials we use provide a better insulation and hence, significantly reduce the heating and cooling required.
Within our operation, we identify saving opportunities, and encourage our staff to conserve energy through providing incentives. The production process of our Changsha technology park embodied the principle of energy saving and emission reduction, and reached level two of the national clean production standard. The production hub was carefully designed to reduce the length of the pipeline and hence, reduce energy consumption.

ENVIRONMENT (continued)
Water Use and Wastewater Generation
During the construction and operation of the technology parks, the amount of water use was not significant. Wastewater was mainly generated from ground washing in the facilities, equipment and machinery cleaning, vehicle washing and runoff, which the pollutants were mainly suspended solids and oil. We strive to recycle wastewater where possible and therefore, sedimentation tanks and grease traps were installed. Zero industrial water discharge was achieved at our Changsha factory – wastewater generated was treated in sedimentation tank and reused in the concrete blending and mortar production process.
For domestic wastewater, we have installed septic tanks and grease traps before discharging to the local sewage treatment plant.
Waste Management
We recycle or reuse construction waste wherever possible to promote waste minimization at the source. For waste that is not suitable for recycling or reusing, they are stored properly and disposed regularly at the designated disposal points. Long-term stacking is not allowed to avoid dust emissions.
During operation, hazardous waste includes water emulsion and waste oil was stored at a specific storage area, and the containers must be labeled; the waste was collected and treated by a qualified third party regularly. For nonhazardous waste, we reused the dust collected and waste scrap back in our production process and recycled scrap and welding slag by the manufacturers, other industrial wastes and domestic wastes were stored at the temporary storage site and disposed.
EMPLOYMENT
With an aim to become one of the most competitive players in the industrialized construction industry, together with the rapid development of the six production hubs over the year, we understand the importance of our workforce, and strive to maintain the talent through provision of attractive remuneration package, safe working environment and individual development support.
Recruitment and Employee Retention
We believe building the right team and retaining talent is essential for our success. To find the right person for the job, we have developed a recruitment policy which strictly abides the fair, open and just principle and prohibits discrimination. For any violation of the policy, the employee will be subject to penalties including dismissal.
To retain skilled employees, competitive remuneration package was offered. Through our competitive compensation system, salary and welfare were decided based on the market, position and personal competence. We also had a performance management system to assess, track and monitor the performance of individual employees, which the assessment was conducted at least annually in a fair and consistent manner. Welfare included insurance, subsidies on housing, transportation and meal, annual leaves, and body check, etc.

The Joint Venture provides a platform for the Company and the JV Partner to contribute their respective resources, capabilities and industry expertise to continue the development of the Industrial Park. The JV Partner has already entered into a number of framework agreements with potential suppliers and customers to support the commencement of production and sales of its prefabricated units and building materials. The Joint Venture may enter into similar agreements with relevant construction contractors. In addition, the JV Partner has developed advanced technologies and know-how relating to the production of prefabricated units and building materials, which has been contributed into the Joint Venture to facilitate the development of its future business operation.
On 13 June 2016, the resolution in relation to the JV Agreement has been approved by the Shareholders in the special general meeting.

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF
CHINA MINSHENG DRAWIN TECHNOLOGY GROUP LIMITED
(incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability)
OPINION
What we have audited
The consolidated financial statements of China Minsheng Drawin Technology Group Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) set out on pages 52 to 123, which comprise:
-
the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2016;
-
the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year then ended;
-
the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended;
-
the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and
-
the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which include a summary of significant accounting policies.
Our opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2016, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRSs”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”) and have been properly prepared in compliance with the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
BASIS FOR OPINION
We conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing (“HKSAs”) issued by the HKICPA. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of this report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Independence
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the HKICPA’s Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

KEY AUDIT MATTERS
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matters identified in our audit are summarised as follows:
-
Reversal of previously recognised impairment loss of other receivables and prepayments
-
Impairment losses of other receivables and prepayments
Key Audit Matter 1 How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
R e v e r s a l o f p r e v i o u s l y r e c o g n i s e d impairment loss of other receivables and prepayments
Included in the Group’s consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2016 is a gain of HK$72 million, resulting from the recovery of earnest money for the acquisition of certain properties located in Shenzhen. Full provision was made for the earnest money in the amount of HK$72 million which was considered as fully impaired in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 based on impairment events identified and the judgement made by the directors then. The total amount was eventually recovered by the Group in late 2016 and the impairment loss recognised in the prior year was reversed accordingly. See Note 4 (Critical accounting estimates and judgements) and Note 7 (Other gains) to the consolidated financial statements in which they are disclosed.
Due to the fact that multiple parties were involved in this transaction, the directors made certain judgement over the timing of recognition and reversal of such impairment loss. We focused on this area due to the level of judgement made as well as its significance to the consolidated net profit.
We examined the contractual agreements and the relevant bank records to validate the existence of the transactions and the recovery of the amount.
We interviewed certain counterparties to understand the facts existed during each of these years and the commercial rationale for each of their actions. We collaborated each of their representations with others. We obtained written confirmations from all relevant third-party counterparties to confirm the above settlement arrangement which was concluded in late 2016 after we issued our auditor’s report on the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 and that there are no other arrangements that should have been considered or accounted for separately or collectively, or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016.
We further challenged whether the reversal of the provision should be accounted for in the year ended 31 December 2016 due to change in circumstances in the year 2016, or whether the impairment in the year ended 31 December 2015 was made pre-maturely and that no impairment should have been made in the year 2015.
We are satisfied with the directors’ explanation of, and evidences obtained on the facts that led to the recognition of the impairment provision made in 2015 as well as the change in facts and circumstances that led to the reversal of the impairment provision during the year ended 31 December 2016.

KEY AUDIT MATTERS (continued)
Key Audit Matter 2
How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
Impairment losses of other receivables and prepayments
As at 31 December 2016, the Group had two significant other receivable balances of HK$28 million and HK$18 million, respectively, which were subject to high collectability risk due to their aging status and relevant disputes. The Group has filed lawsuits against the counterparties for the collection of these amounts and the outcome of the ongoing legal processes have significant uncertainties. The Group recognised HK$30 million of impairment losses at the year ended 31 December 2016 based on information available then and after duly considering legal counsels’ advice. See Note 4 (Critical accounting estimates and judgements) and Note 21 (Trade and other receivables and prepayments) to the consolidated financial statements in which they are disclosed.
We focused on this area because the directors made significant judgement over both the timing of recognition and amount of impairment made.
We obtained understanding of the latest development of the collection process and the basis of recognition of the impairment provisions. We considered whether key judgements applied by the directors were appropriate given the counterparties’ circumstances.
In addition, we discussed with external legal counsels to understand the legal position and their basis. We also obtained legal opinions from the Group’s external legal counsels and their understanding of the latest development of the legal process including court decisions available post year-end to corroborate with the directors’ assessment for making the impairment provisions.
As set out in the consolidated financial statements, the outcome of the legal claims are dependent on the future outcome of continuing legal processes and the counterparties’ circumstances. Consequently, the calculations of the receivable impairment are subject to inherent uncertainty.
Based on the evidences obtained above, we did not identify significant difference with respect to the judgements the directors made in determining the impairment provision.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not and will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
When we read the corporate information, chairman’s statement, directors’ and senior management biography, corporate governance report, environmental, social and governance report, directors’ report and five year financial summary, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to the audit committee and take appropriate action considering our legal rights and obligations.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS AND THE AUDIT COMMITTEE FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
The audit committee is responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)

AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. We report our opinion solely to you, as a body, in accordance with Section 90 of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with HKSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the audit committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the audit committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with the audit committee all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the audit committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Arthur Chi Ping Kwok.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the year ended 31 December 2016
1 GENERAL INFORMATION
China Minsheng Drawin Technology Group Limited (formerly known as “South East Group Limited”, the “Company”) was incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability in Bermuda on 28 February 1991 under the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda and its issued shares are listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) starting from 25 July 1991.
The address of the registered office of the Company is Canon’s Court, 22 Victoria Street, Hamilton HM 12, Bermuda. The principal place of business of the Company is Suites 1001-1004, Level 10, One Pacific Place, 88 Queensway, Admiralty, Hong Kong.
The principal activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) are prefabricated construction work and property investment in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).
On 27 May 2015, China Minsheng Jiaye Investment Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of China Minsheng Investment Corp., Ltd., became a substantial shareholder of the Company.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”) and rounded to the nearest thousand (“HK$’000”), unless otherwise stated.
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements have been consistently applied to the year and period presented, unless otherwise stated.
2.1.1 Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with all applicable Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (”HKFRSs”) and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance Cap. 622. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss and investment properties, which are carried at fair value.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 4.
China Minsheng Drawin Technology Group Limited Annual Report 2016 57
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) For the year ended 31 December 2016
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
2.1.1 Basis of preparation (continued) (a) New amendments and improvements of HKFRSs adopted by the Group in 2016
HKAS 1 (Amendments) Disclosure initiative HKAS 16 and HKAS 38 Clarification of acceptable methods of depreciation (Amendments) and amortisation HKAS 27 (Amendments) Equity method in separate financial statements HKA 28, HKFRS 10 and Investment entities: applying the consolidation HKFRS 12 (Amendments) exception HKFRS 11 (Amendments) Accounting for acquisitions of interests in joint operations Annual improvements 2014 The amendments include changes from the 2012-2014 cycle of the annual improvement project that affect 4 standards of HKFRSs.
The adoption of the above new amendments and improvements starting from 1 January 2016 did not give rise to any significant impact on the Group’s results of operations and financial position for the year ended 31 December 2016.
- (b) New standards and amendments of HKFRSs not yet effective and not early adopted by the Group
A number of new standards and amendments to existing standards of HKFRSs are effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2017 or later periods and have not been early adopted by the Group in preparing these consolidated financial statements. Those which are relevant to the Group’s operations are set out below:
HKFRS 9, ‘Financial Instruments’
The new standard addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities, introduces new rules for hedge accounting and a new impairment model for financial assets.
The financial assets held by the Group include:
-
equity instruments currently classified as AFS for which a FVOCI election is available; and
-
equity investments currently measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) which would likely continue to be measured on the same basis under HKFRS 9.
Accordingly, the Group does not expect the new guidance to have a significant impact on the classification and measurement of its financial assets.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
2.1.1 Basis of preparation (continued)
- (b) New standards and amendments of HKFRSs not yet effective and not early adopted by the Group (continued)
HKFRS 9, ‘Financial Instruments’ (continued)
There will be no impact on the Group’s accounting for financial liabilities, as the new requirements only affect the accounting for financial liabilities that are designated at fair value through profit or loss and the Group does not have any such liabilities. The derecognition rules have been transferred from HKAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and have not been changed.
HKFRS 9 relaxes the requirements for hedge effectiveness by replacing the bright line hedge effectiveness tests. As a general rule, more hedge relationships might be eligible for hedge accounting, as the standard introduces a more principles-based approach. Currently, the Group does not have any hedging relationship, and accordingly the new standard will not have a significant impact.
The new impairment model requires the recognition of impairment provisions based on expected credit losses (ECL) rather than only incurred credit losses as is the case under HKAS 39. It applies to financial assets classified at amortised cost, debt instruments measured at FVOCI, contract assets under HKFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, lease receivables, loan commitments and certain financial guarantee contracts. While the Group has not yet undertaken a detailed assessment of how its impairment provisions would be affected by the new model, it may result in an earlier recognition of credit losses.
The new standard also introduces expanded disclosure requirements and changes in presentation. These are expected to change the nature and extent of the Group’s disclosures about its financial instruments particularly in the year of the adoption of the new standard.
HKFRS 9 must be applied for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2018. Based on the transitional provisions in the completed HKFRS 9, early adoption in phases was only permitted for annual reporting periods beginning before 1 February 2015. After that date, the new rules must be adopted in their entirety. The Group does not intend to adopt HKFRS 9 before its mandatory date.
HKFRS 15, ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’
The HKICPA has issued a new standard for the recognition of revenue. This will replace HKAS 18 which covers contracts for goods and services and HKAS 11 which covers construction contracts. The new standard is based on the principle that revenue is recognised when control of a good or service transfers to a customer. The standard permits either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach for the adoption.
HKFRS 15 is mandatory for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2018. At this stage, the Group does not intend to adopt the standard before its effective date. The management is currently assessing the full impact of HKFRS 15.

2.1.1 Basis of preparation (continued)
- (b) New standards and amendments of HKFRSs not yet effective and not early adopted by the Group (continued)
HKFRS 16, ‘Leases’
HKFRS 16 will result in almost all leases being recognised on the statement of financial position, as the distinction between operating and finance leases is removed. Under the new standard, an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals are recognised. The only exceptions are short-term and low-value leases.
The accounting for lessors will not significantly change.
The standard will affect primarily the accounting for Group’s operating leases. Some of the Group’s operating lease commitments may be covered by the exception for short-term and low value leases and some commitments may relate to arrangements that will not qualify as leases under HKFRS 16.
The new standard is mandatory for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2019. At this stage, the Group does not intend to adopt the standard before its effective date.
Except for HKFRS 15 and HKFRS 16 which the Group is yet to conclude, there are no other HKFRSs that are not yet effective that would be expected to have a material impact on the Group.
2.1.2 Accounting period
In light of the Group’s operations are to be carried out mostly through its subsidiaries established or to be established in the PRC, which are statutorily required to close their accounts with the financial year end date of 31 December, and the financial results of the PRC subsidiaries are to be consolidated into the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company determined to change its financial year end date from 31 March to 31 December commencing from the financial period ended on 31 December 2015.
Due to the change of the end of the financial period, this set of consolidated financial statements is for a period of twelve months from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2016. The comparative figures, however, are for nine months from 1 April 2015 to 31 December 2015, and hence are not comparable.
2.2 Subsidiaries
2.2.1 Consolidation
A subsidiary is an entity (including a structured entity) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
2.2 Subsidiaries (continued)
2.2.1 Consolidation (continued)
(a) Business combinations
The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date.
The Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-byacquisition basis. Non-controlling interests in the acquiree that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation are measured at either fair value or the present ownership interests’ proportionate share in the recognised amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. All other components of non-controlling interests are measured at their acquisition date fair value, unless another measurement basis is required by HKFRSs.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement are recognised in profit or loss.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the Group is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration that is deemed to be an asset or liability is recognised in accordance with HKAS 39 in profit or loss. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not re-measured, and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.
The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognised and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognised directly in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
Intra-Group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. When necessary, amounts reported by subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform with the Group’s accounting policies.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
2.2 Subsidiaries (continued)
2.2.1 Consolidation (continued)
- (b) Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without loss of control
Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions – that is, as transactions with the owners of the subsidiary in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying amount of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.
(c) Disposal of subsidiaries
When the Group ceases to have control, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.
2.2.2 Separate financial statements
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment. Cost includes direct attributable costs of investment. The results of subsidiaries are accounted for by the Company on the basis of dividend received and receivable.
Impairment testing of the investments in subsidiaries is required upon receiving a dividend from these investments if the dividend exceeds the total comprehensive income of the subsidiary in the period the dividend is declared or if the carrying amount of the investment in the separate financial statements exceeds the carrying amount in the consolidated financial statements of the investee’s net assets including goodwill.
Impairment testing of the investments in subsidiaries is also required according to Note 2.9.
2.3 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 board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) that makes strategic decisions.
The Group is managed centrally and the Directors are of the view that the whole Group is one single business segment and hence no segment information is presented.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
2.4 Foreign currency translation
(a) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in HK dollars (HK$), which is the Company’s functional and the Group’s presentation currency.
(b) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are re-measured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year/period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income within ‘Finance income or expenses’. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income within ‘Other gains/(losses) – net’.
Changes in the fair value of debt securities denominated in foreign currency classified as available for sale are analysed between translation differences resulting from changes in the amortised cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognised in other comprehensive income.
Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets, such as equities classified as available for sale, are included in other comprehensive income.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
2.4 Foreign currency translation (continued)
(c) Group companies
The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyper-inflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
-
(a) assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet;
-
(b) income and expenses for each consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and
-
(c) all resulting currency translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate. Currency translation differences arising are recognised in other comprehensive income.
(d) Disposal of foreign operations and partial disposals
On the disposal of a foreign operation (that is, a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, a disposal involving loss of joint control over a joint venture that includes a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of significant influence over an associate that includes a foreign operation), all of the currency translation differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation attributable to the owners of the Company are reclassified to profit or loss.
In the case of a partial disposal that does not result in the Group losing control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, the proportionate share of accumulated currency translation differences is re-attributed to non-controlling interests and is not recognised in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals (that is, reductions in the Group’s ownership interest in associates or joint ventures that do not result in the Group losing significant influence or joint control), the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange difference is reclassified to profit or loss.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
2.5 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Cost may also include transfers from equity of any gains/losses on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their costs less their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
| – Buildings | 30 years |
|---|---|
| – Computer equipment | 3-6 years |
| – Motor vehicles | 5 years |
| – Furniture and fixtures | 5-7 years |
| – Equipment | 10 years |
| – Leasehold improvements | 3 years |
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised within ‘Other gains/(losses) – net’ in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

2.6 Investment properties
- Investment property, primarily comprising leasehold land and buildings, is held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that is not occupied by the Group. It also includes properties that are being constructed or developed for future use as investment properties. Land held under operating leases are accounted for as investment properties when the rest of the definition of an investment property is met. In such cases, the operating leases concerned are accounted for as if they were finance leases. Investment property is initially measured at cost, including related transaction costs and where applicable borrowing costs. After initial recognition, investment properties are carried at fair value, representing open market value determined at each reporting date by external valuers. Fair value is based on active market prices, adjusted, if necessary, for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. If the information is not available, the Group uses alternative valuation methods such as recent prices on less active markets or discounted cash flow projections. Changes in fair values are recorded in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as part of a valuation gain or loss in ‘Other gains/ (losses) – net’.
2.7 Land use rights
All land in PRC is state-owned or collectively-owned and no individual ownership rights exist. Land use rights represent upfront payments made for the leasehold land in the PRC. It is stated at cost less accumulative amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocated the cost of land use rights over the remaining period of the lease.
2.8 Intangible assets Computer software licences
Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. These costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives of three to five years.
2.9 Impairment of non-financial assets
Intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life or intangible assets not ready to use are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

2.10 Financial assets
2.10.1 Classification
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, and available for sale. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
- (a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are also categorised as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be settled within 12 months; otherwise, they are classified as non-current.
(b) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for the amounts that are settled or expected to be settled more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period which are classified as non-current assets. The Group’s loans and receivables comprise “Trade and other receivables and prepayments” and ‘Cash and cash equivalents’ in the statement of financial position.
- (c) Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in noncurrent assets unless the investment matures or management intends to dispose of it within 12 months of the end of the reporting period.
2.10.2 Recognition and measurement
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade-date – the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Available-forsale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.10 Financial assets (continued)
2.10.2 Recognition and measurement (continued)
Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ category are presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income within ‘Other gains/(losses) – net’ in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as part of other income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of monetary and non-monetary securities classified as available-forsale are recognised in other comprehensive income.
When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in equity are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as “Other gains/(losses) – net”.
Interest on available-for-sale securities calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as part of other income. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as part of other income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.
2.10.3 Offsetting financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the relevant company or the counterparty.
2.10.4 Impairment of financial assets
- (a) Assets carried at amortised cost
The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.

2.10 Financial assets (continued)
2.10.4 Impairment of financial assets (continued)
(a) Assets carried at amortised cost (continued)
Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation, and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
For loans and receivables category, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. If a loan or held-tomaturity investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market price.
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 (such as an improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognised impairment loss is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
- (b) Assets classified as available for sale
The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired.
For debt securities, if any such evidence exists the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss – is removed from equity and recognised in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
For equity investments, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is also evidence that the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss – is removed from equity and recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised as profit or loss in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on equity instruments are not reversed through the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

2.11 Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity). It excludes borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. Costs of inventories include the transfer from equity of any gains/losses on qualifying cash flow hedges for purchases of raw materials.
2.12 Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business and rentals receivable. If collection of trade and other receivables is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment.
2.13 Cash and cash equivalents
In the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. In the consolidated and Company’s statements of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
2.14 Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Mandatorily redeemable preference shares are classified as liabilities.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
2.15 Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade and other payables are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.16 Borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.
Preference shares, if mandatorily redeemable at a specific date or redeemable at the option of the holder, are classified as liabilities. The dividends on these preference shares are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as interest expense.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
2.17 Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs include interest expense, finance charges in respect of finance lease and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs. The exchange gains and losses that are an adjustment to interest costs include the interest rate differential between borrowing costs that would be incurred if the entity had borrowed funds in its functional currency, and the borrowing costs actually incurred on foreign currency borrowings. Such amounts are estimated based on interest rates on similar borrowings in the entity’s functional currency.
When the construction of the qualifying assets takes more than one accounting period, the amount of foreign exchange differences eligible for capitalisation is determined for each annual period and are limited to the difference between the hypothetical interest amount for the functional currency borrowings and the actual interest incurred for foreign currency borrowings. Foreign exchange differences that did not meet the criteria for capitalisation in previous years should not be capitalised in subsequent years.
When the construction of the qualifying assets takes more than one accounting period, the amount of foreign exchange differences eligible for capitalisation is determined on a cumulative basis based on the cumulative amounts of interest expenses that would have been incurred had the entity borrowed in its functional currency. The total amount of foreign exchange differences capitalised cannot exceed the amount of total net foreign exchange differences incurred on a cumulative basis at the end of the reporting period.

2.18 Compound financial instruments
Compound financial instruments issued by the Group comprise convertible bond that can be converted to share capital of the Company at the option of the holder, and the number of shares to be issued does not vary with changes in their fair value.
The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognised initially at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is recognised initially at the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component, which is included in shareholders’ equity in other reserves. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not re-measured subsequent to initial recognition except on conversion or expiry.
The liability component of a convertible instrument is classified as current unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
2.19 Current and deferred income tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred income tax. Tax is recognised as profit or loss in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
(a) Current income tax
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. Provisions are established where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

2.19 Current and deferred income tax (continued)
(b) Deferred income tax
Inside basis differences
Deferred income tax is recognised, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Also the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
Outside basis differences
Deferred income tax liabilities are provided on taxable temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements, except for deferred income tax liability where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Generally the Group is unable to control the reversal of the temporary difference for associates. Only when there is an agreement in place that gives the Group the ability to control the reversal of the temporary difference in the foreseeable future, deferred tax liability in relation to taxable temporary differences arising from the associate’s undistributed profits is not recognised.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised on deductible temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements only to the extent that it is probable the temporary difference will reverse in the future and there is sufficient taxable profit available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.
(c) Offsetting
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

2.20 Employee benefits
(a) Pension obligations
The Group has participated in the Hong Kong Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme (the “MPF Scheme”) under the Hong Kong Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme Ordinance for its Hong Kong staff. The assets of the MPF Scheme are held separately from those of the Group in an independently administered fund. The MPF Scheme is generally funded by payments from employees and by the Group. The Group’s contributions to the MPF Scheme are expensed as incurred in accordance with the rules of the MPF Scheme and are not reduced by contributions forfeited by those employees who leave the MPF Scheme prior to vesting fully in the contributions.
In accordance with the PRC regulations, the Group is required to pay social security contributions for its PRC staff based on certain percentage of their salaries to the social security plan organised by related governmental bodies (“PRC plan”).
The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid to the MPF Scheme and PRC plan. The Group’s contributions to the MPF Scheme and PRC plan are recognised as employee benefit expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income when they are due.
(b) Termination benefits
Termination benefits are recognised when, and only when, the Group demonstrably commits itself to terminate employment or to provide benefits as a result of voluntary redundancy by having a detailed formal plan which is without realistic possibility of withdrawal.
2.21 Equity settled share option scheme
Equity settled share option payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date.
The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity settled share option payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity (employee share-based payment reserve).
At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to employee share option reserve.
For share options that vest immediately at the date of grant, the fair value of the share options granted is expensed immediately to profit or loss.

2.21 Equity settled share option scheme (continued)
When share options are exercised, the amount previously recognised in employee share option reserve will be transferred to share premium. When share options are forfeited after the vesting date or are still not exercised at the expiry date, the amount previously recognised in employee share option reserve will be transferred to retained earnings.
2.22 Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions for environmental restoration, restructuring costs and legal claims are recognised when: the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated. Restructuring provisions comprise lease termination penalties and employee termination payments. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group. It can also be a present obligation arising from past events that is not recognised because it is not probable that outflow of economic resources will be required or the amount of obligation cannot be measured reliably.
A contingent liability is not recognised but is disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. When a change in the probability of an outflow occurs so that outflow is probable, it will then be recognised as a provision.

2.23 Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, and represents amounts receivable for goods supplied, stated net of discounts, returns and value added taxes. The group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured; when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity; and when specific criteria have been met for each of the group’s activities, as described below. The group bases its estimates of return on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customers, the type of transactions and the specifics of each arrangement.
(a) Sales of prefabricated units
Sales of prefabricated units is recognised when a group entity has delivered prefabricated units to the customers, i.e. the general contractors of construction projects. The general contractors are given a right of return if the goods are not accepted by their customers. Revenue is adjusted for the value of expected returns. Delivery occurs when the prefabricated units have been shipped to the specified location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the general contractor, and either the general contractor has accepted the products in accordance with sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the group has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
(b) Rental income of investment properties
- Rental income of investment properties is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease period.
(c) Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time-apportioned basis using the effective interest method.
2.24 Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
2.25 Leases
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
The Group leases certain property, plant and equipment. Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s commencement at the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments.

2.25 Leases (continued)
Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other long-term payables. The interest element of the finance cost is charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.
2.26 Dividend distribution
Dividend distribution to the Company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Group’s and the Company’s financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company’s shareholders or directors, where appropriate.
2.27 Related parties
A party is considered to be related to the Group if:
-
(a) A person or a close member of that person’s family is related to the Group, if that person:
-
(i) has control or joint control over the Group;
-
(ii) has significant influence over the Group; or
-
(iii) is a member of the key management personnel of the Group or the Group’s parent.
-
(b) An entity is related to the Group if any of the following conditions applies:
-
(i) the entity and the Group are members of the same group (which means that each parent, subsidiary and fellow subsidiary is related to the others).
-
(ii) one entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity (or an associate or joint venture of a member of a group of which the other entity is a member).
-
(iii) the entity and the Group are joint ventures of the same third party.
-
(iv) one entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third entity.
-
(v) the entity is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the Group or an entity related to the Group.
-
(vi) the entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in (a).
-
(vii) a person identified in (a) has significant influence over the entity or is a member of the key management personnel of the entity (or of a parent of the entity).

2.28 Subsequent events
Events after the reporting period that provide additional information about the Group’s position at the end of the reporting period (“adjusting events”) are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Events after the reporting period that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.
3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
3.1 Financial risk factors
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, price risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance.
3.1.1 Market risk
(a) Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The majority of the Group’s transactions and balances are denominated in HKD and RMB, which are the functional currencies of the Company and its non-PRC mainland subsidiaries, and its PRC mainland companies respectively.
The Company and its non-PRC mainland subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities are mainly denominated in HKD, except for certain bank balances which are denominated in RMB and United State dollars (“USD”). As HKD are pegged to USD, it is assumed that there would be no material currency risk exposure between these two currencies.
The PRC mainland companies’ assets and liabilities are mainly denominated in RMB, except for certain bank balances which are denominated in HKD. Accordingly, cash denominated in HKD is subject to foreign exchange risk. Fluctuations in the exchange rates of HKD against RMB will affect the Group’s result of operations. The Group does not have any formal hedging policies. However, management closely monitors the foreign exchange exposure and will take actions when necessary.
As at 31 December 2016, if RMB had strengthened/weakened by 5%, against HKD with all other variables held constant, post-tax loss for the period would have been HK$10,773,691 (2015: HK$3,824,000) higher/lower, mainly as a result of net foreign exchange losses/gains on translation of HKD denominated bank deposits.

3.1.1 Market risk (continued)
(b) Price risk
The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk because of investments held by the Group and classified on the consolidated statements of financial position as availablefor-sale financial assets or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The Group is not exposed to commodity price risk.
Subsequent to 31 December 2016, the Group disposed all of the remaining listed shares recognised as both available-for-sale investments and financial asset at fair value through profit or loss held as of 31 December 2016 listed on the table below. Therefore, in the opinion of the directors, the Group’s exposure to price risk with regard to its investments is not significant since it is the Group’s policy not to invest significant amounts that might have a detrimental impact to the Group’s financial results. All investments must be approved by the authorised director before they may be entered into.
The table below summarises the impact of increases/decreases of the two equity indexes on the Group’s post-tax loss for the year/period and on equity. The analysis is based on the assumption that the equity indexes had increased/decreased by 5% with all other variables held constant and all the Group’s equity instruments moved according to the historical correlation with the index:
| Impact on post-tax profit | Impact on post-tax profit | Impact on other components | Impact on other components | |

3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
3.1 Financial risk factors (continued)
3.1.1 Market risk (continued)
- (c) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
The Group’s cash flow interest rate risk relates primarily to the Group’s variable interest generating bank balances. The Group’s interest rate risk arises from its convertible bond and short-term borrowing. The zero coupon rate convertible bond and the short-term borrowing obtained at fixed rate exposed the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The Group did not enter into interest rate swap to hedge against its exposures.
Except for cash deposits in the bank, the Group has no other significant interestbearing assets.
Management does not anticipate significant impact to interest-bearing assets resulted from the changes in interest rates, because the interest rates of bank deposits are not expected to change significantly.
As at 31 December 2016 and 2015, if interest rates on interest-generating bank deposits with floating rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower with all other variables held constant, the post-tax loss of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2016 and the nine months ended 31 December 2015 would have changed as follows:
| As at | As at | |
|---|---|---|
| 31 December | 31 December | |
| 2016 | 2015 | |
| HK$’000 | HK$’000 | |
| Post-tax loss decrease/(increase) – 50 basis points higher – 50 basis points lower |
3,254 (3,254) |
4,880 (4,880) |
3.1.2 Credit risk
As at 31 December 2016 and 2015, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk is trade and other receivables and bank balances.
The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk. In respect of trade receivables, credit is offered to customers following financial assessment and an established payment record. The Group has policies in place to ensure that sales are made to customers with an appropriate credit history. Credit limits are set for all customers and these are exceeded only with the approval of senior company officers. These credit evaluations focus on the customers’ past history of making payments when due and current ability to pay, and take into account information specific to the customers. General credit terms are payment by one to three months following the month in which sales took place. The Group will make specific provision for those balances which cannot be recovered. The management will monitor the outstanding trade receivables and follow up the collections. In the opinion of the directors of the Company, the default credit risk of the Group’s trade receivables is considered to be low.

3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
3.1 Financial risk factors (continued)
3.1.2 Credit risk (continued)
In respect of other receivables, the directors of the Company closely monitor the collectability and assess the recoverability at each balance sheet date. The Group will make specific provision for those balances which cannot be recovered based on the collectability assessment.
The credit risk on bank deposits are limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit rating assigned by international credit-rating agencies and are the PRC large statecontrolled banks. As such, no significant credit risk from bank deposits is anticipated.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the consolidated statement of financial position.
Cash transactions are limited to high-credit-quality financial institutions. The table below shows the bank deposit balances as at 31 December 2016 and 2015:
| As at | As at | |
|---|---|---|
| 31 December | 31 December | |
| 2016 | 2015 | |
| Counter party | HK$’000 | HK$’000 |
| Deposits with the state-owned banks of the PRC |
649,888 | 965,737 |
| Deposits with other listed banks of the PRC Deposits with other banks |
48,577 133,034 |
217,882 979 |
| 831,499 | 1,184,598 |
Management does not expect any losses from non-performance of these counterparties.
For credit risk arised from trade receivable balances, each local entity is responsible for managing and analysing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered.
Other receivables mainly comprise receivables from refundable earnest money and receivables in relation to redemption of private funds. The Group closely monitors these other receivables to ensure actions are taken to recover these balances in the case of any risk of default.

3.2 Capital risk management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

3.2 Capital risk management (continued)
The Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as total equity, as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position, plus net debt.
The gearing ratios of the Group at 31 December 2016 and 2015 were as follows:
| As at | As at | |
|---|---|---|
| 31 December | 31 December | |
| 2016 | 2015 | |

notes:
- (a) Borrowings include bank loans (Note 31) and convertible bond (Note 28).
(b) Equity includes all capital and reserves attributable to owners of the Company.
3.3 Fair value estimation
The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:
-
Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1).
-
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (Level 2).
-
Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (Level 3).

There was no transfer between level 1 and 2 during the year/period.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. The instrument is included in Level 1.
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, overthe-counter derivatives) is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.

4 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below.
4.1 Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
- (a) Fair value of financial instruments
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined by using valuation techniques. The Group uses its judgement to select a variety of methods and make assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at the end of each reporting period.
(b) Fair value of investment properties
- The fair value of investment properties is determined by using valuation technique. Details of the judgement and assumptions have been disclosed in Note 16.
(c) Recoverability of receivables
The Group estimates impairment losses for trade and other receivables due to their aging status and relevant disputes. The Group also filed lawsuit against certain counterparties for the collection of these amounts. The outcome of the legal claims are dependent on the future outcome of continuing legal processes and the counterparties’ circumstances. The Group bases the estimates on the aging of the receivable balances, information available then and after duly considering legal counsels’ advice. If the actual outcomes of legal claims and the financial conditions of debtors were to change, actual write offs would be different from what is estimated.
(d) Income taxes
The Group is subject to income taxes in a number of jurisdictions. Significant judgement is required in determining the worldwide provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made.
4.2 Critical judgement in applying the Group’s accounting policies
(a) Impairment of available-for-sale equity investments
The Group follows the guidance of HKAS 39 to determine when an available-for-sale equity investment is impaired. This determination requires significant judgement. In making this judgement, the Group evaluates, among other factors, the duration and extent to which the fair value of an investment is less than its cost; and the financial health of and short-term business outlook for the investee, including factors such as industry and sector performance, changes in technology and operational and financing cash flow.

Hong Kong profits tax
The applicable Hong Kong profits tax rate is 16.5% (nine months ended 31 December 2015: 16.5%) on the estimated assessable profit derived in Hong Kong for the year/period.
PRC corporate income tax
Under the Corporate Income Tax Law of the PRC (“CIT Law”), the CIT rate applicable to the Group’s subsidiaries established in mainland China is 25%.
The CIT Law and its implementation rules impose a withholding tax at 10% for dividends distributed by a PRC-resident enterprise to its immediate holding company outside PRC for earnings generated beginning 1 January 2008 and undistributed earnings generated prior to 1 January 2008 are exempted from such withholding tax. A lower 5% withholding tax rate may be applied when the immediate holding companies are established in Hong Kong according to the tax treaty arrangement between the PRC and Hong Kong. The Company’s mainland China subsidiaries did not make any profit for the year ended 31 December 2016 and hence no such withholding tax was accrued (nine month ended 31 December 2015: Nil).

13 LOSS PER SHARE
(a) Basic
Basic loss per share for the year/period is calculated by dividing the consolidated loss of the Group attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year/period.
| Nine months | ||
|---|---|---|
| Year ended | ended | |
| 31 December | 31 December | |
| 2016 | 2015 | |
| HK$’000 | HK$’000 | |
| Consolidated loss attributable to owners of the Company (HK$’000) |
(101,136) | (193,209) |
| Weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue (’000) | 10,209,603 | 8,862,330 |
| Basic loss per share (HK cents) | (0.99) | (2.18) |
(b) Diluted
Diluted loss per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. The Company has only one category of dilutive potential ordinary shares for both the year ended 31 December 2016 and the nine months ended 31 December 2015, which is the convertible bond (Note 28). The convertible bond is assumed to have been converted into ordinary shares, and the loss attributable to owners of the Company is adjusted to eliminate the interest expense less the tax effect. For the year ended 31 December 2016 and the nine months ended 31 December 2015, the Group incurred a loss, the impact of conversion of convertible bond on loss per share is anti-dilutive. Diluted loss per share therefore is equal to basic loss per share.

(a) On 26 February 2014, the Group (as purchaser) entered into a non-legally binding framework agreement (as supplemented by four supplemental framework agreements dated 23 May 2014, 22 August 2014, 25 November 2014 and 30 December 2014) with Mr. Liu Shu (as vendor) relating to a possible acquisition of certain properties in Shenzhen, the PRC by the Group at a consideration to be determined with reference to the finalised market value of such properties, which shall be satisfied in the combination of cash, consideration shares, promissory notes and/or convertible notes of the Group; and the cash portion of which shall not be less than HK$300 million. Subsequently, a total of HK$72 million was paid to the vendor as refundable earnest money. As no formal agreement was entered into by the long stop date on 25 February 2015, the framework agreement (as supplemented by the four supplemented framework agreements as mentioned above) lapsed on 25 February 2015. As at 31 December 2015, the above-mentioned earnest money owed to the Group by Mr. Liu Shu was fully impaired. In late 2016, the earnest money in the amount of HK$72 million has been fully refunded to the Group pursuant to agreements entered into among the Company, Mr. Liu Shu, a third party paying on behalf of Mr. Liu Shu, and Jiayao Global Investments Limited (“Jiayao”) (the parent company of the Company). According to the agreements, Jiayao only acted as an intermediary who received the amount from the third party on behalf of the Company. The full amount of HK$72 million had been transferred from Jiayao to the Company within in a short period of time and no direct benefits were taken by Jiayao under such arrangement. Accordingly, the entire amount of the above-mentioned earnest money was recovered by the Group and the impairment loss previously recognised was reversed in late 2016.

(b) On 24 December 2014, the Group entered into a non-legally binding framework agreement with Greenland Holding Group Company Limited (“Greenland”) relating to a possible acquisition of the entire equity interest of Jinhong Property Development Limited (金鴻置業有限公司) by the Group. Subsequently, a total of HK$28 million was paid to Greenland as refundable earnest money. On 8 March 2016, the Group had decided not to proceed with the possible acquisition and the framework agreement had lapsed pursuant to its terms. In 2016, the Group recognised HK$21 million impairment loss for the above mentioned earnest money after unsuccessful claim for such refund for an extended period of time. On 10 February 2017, the Group filed lawsuits against Greenland to collect the amount. The outcome of the legal claim is dependent on the future outcome of continuing legal processes and the counterparties’ circumstances. As of the financial statement issuance date, the lawsuit is still in process.
-
(c) This refers to outstanding redemption proceeds in relation to private funds redeemed by the Group during the year. Subsequent to 31 December 2016, the Company had collected HK$5,564,000 outstanding receivables, with HK$18,230,000 remained outstanding as of the financial statement issuance date. On 24 November 2016, the Company filed a lawsuit against Quantum Enhanced Fund (“QEF”) to recover HK$18,230,000 outstanding principal and its related costs and interest expense. In 2016, the Group recognised HK$9 million impairment loss for the principal amount redeemable from QEF due to the unfavourable response after repeated requests. On 13 February 2017, a court judgement was entered against QEF in favour of the Company. However, as QEF has not responded to the statutory demands and the court judgement as of the date hereof, the Company considered that the outstanding principal may not be collected in full.

(b) Companies excluded from consolidation:
As reported in previous years, a claim was brought in July 1998 against Benelux Manufacturing Limited (in liquidation) (“BML”) in which the Company has a direct wholly owned interest but not treated as a subsidiary, by its sub-contractor, Shenzhen Benelux Enterprise Co., Limited (“SBEC”), alleging that BML was liable for the payment of approximately HK$38 million, comprising charges in connection with the processing and assembling work rendered by SBEC and the breach of an alleged loan agreement relating to certain alleged letters of credit. SBEC further alleged that the Company had granted a guarantee to SBEC in respect of the alleged BML’s indebtedness to SBEC (the “Purported Guarantee”) in/around January 1999. Notwithstanding the allegation, SBEC has not initiated any proceedings against the Company based on the Purported Guarantee. BML was put into compulsory liquidation on 28 April 2000.
The directors of the Company have given due and careful consideration of the impact of the liquidation of BML on the Group’s operations and financial position and are of the opinion that it will not have a material adverse effect on the Group. As BML was put under severe restrictions which significantly impaired control by the Company over BML’s assets and operations, the directors of the Company have decided to exclude BML and the interest of BML from the consolidated financial statements from the date of appointment of the provisional liquidators since 2000.
Details of the companies excluded from consolidation as at 31 December 2016 and 2015 are as follows:

At the end of the reporting year, the Group has unused tax losses of approximately HK$141.7 million (31 December 2015: approximately HK$58.5 million) that are available for offsetting against future taxable profits.
