(II) NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the Announcements in relation to the acquisition by the Company of (i) the Sale Shares and (ii) the Shareholders’ Loan from the Vendors for a consideration of HK$205,140,000, which will be settled in full by the Company’s allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares at or after Completion.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

SALE AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT

Date

17 June 2017

Parties to the Sale and Purchase Agreement

  • (a) the Company as purchaser; and

  • (b) the Vendors as vendors.

Each of the Vendors is engaged in investment holding. To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, each of the Vendors and its ultimate beneficial owners is an Independent Third Party and is not related to or connected with each other.

One of the Directors, Mr. Zhu Gen Rong, has been a business partner with one of the ultimate owners of the Vendors and they have maintained a long-standing business relationship with one another. The Vendors were therefore introduced to the Company through Mr. Zhu.

Assets to be acquired

  • (a) the Sale Shares (representing the entire issued share capital of the Target Company as at the Latest Practicable Date); and

  • (b) the Shareholders’ Loan.

Upon Completion, the Target Group will become wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. Information on the Target Group are set out in the paragraph headed “Information relating to the Target Group” below.

Consideration

The consideration payable by the Company to the Vendors under the Sale and Purchase Agreement is HK$205,140,000 (equivalent to approximately US$26,300,000) which will be satisfied in full by the Company’s allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares to the Vendors upon Completion.

The Consideration was determined after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and the Vendors and taking into consideration of various factors, including without limitation (i) the net liabilities of the Target Group, which amounted to approximately RMB5.47 million as at 30 April 2017, (ii) the capital to be injected by the Vendors to the WFOE for paying up the unpaid portion of the registered capital of the WFOE, which amounted to approximately RMB41.9 million

  • 6 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

as at 30 April 2017, (iii) the Shareholders’ Loan of approximately RMB126.2 million as at 30 April 2017, and (iv) the premium on the valuation of the Project Land of approximately RMB12.5 million as at 30 April 2017. Taking into account the abovementioned factors and the synergy to be created between the Project Land and the existing business of the Group after Completion as further elaborated under the paragraph headed “Information of the Group and reasons for entering into the Sale and Purchase Agreement” in this circular, the Consideration is considered by the Board as fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Group and the Shareholders as a whole.

In the course of negotiation of the Consideration, the Board has considered different kinds of settlement mechanism of the Consideration, including without limitation settlement by cash and allotment and issue of Shares. Since the Directors consider that the allotment and issue of Consideration Shares could allow the Company to maintain sufficient cash balance for the Group’s daily operation and development of its new and potential business projects, in particular the development of the Project Land, having taken into account (i) the amount of cash that need to be paid out if the consideration for the Acquisition is settled by cash, (ii) alternative settlement methods such as settlement by cash as mentioned above, and (iii) the extent of the dilution effect on the shareholding of the existing Shareholders after the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares to the Vendors as disclosed in the paragraph headed “Consideration Shares” below, the current settlement mechanism of the consideration is preferred and considered as in the best interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Valuation of Project Land

Valuation of the Project Land with the existing constructions erected thereon has been carried out by our Independent Property Valuer which valued the aggregate market value of the Project Land with the existing construction erected thereon at approximately RMB204 million as at 31 August 2017. The valuation report of the Project Land with the existing construction erected thereon performed by our Independent Property Valuer is set out in Appendix IV to this circular.

In the valuation of the Project Land with the existing construction erected thereon, since there are no readily identifiable market comparable transactions, the Independent Property Valuer has adopted the depreciated replacement cost method based on an estimate of the market value for the existing use of the land, plus the current gross replacement costs of the existing construction less deduction for physical deterioration and all relevant forms of obsolescence and optimization. In arriving at the land value, reference has been made to the sales evidence as available in the locality.

These comparables are adopted as they are considered relevant to the land in terms of physical and locational attributes. The site unit rate adopted in the valuation are consistent with the site unit rates of the relevant comparables after due adjustments in terms of location, term and size, etc.

  • 7 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In the course of the valuation conducted by the Property Valuer, the depreciated replacement cost of the existing construction is assessed at circa RMB133,000,000 while the land value is assessed at circa RMB71,000,000 (representing a site unit rate of RMB367 per square metre) as at 31 August 2017.

The Company has discussed with the Independent Property Valuer with regard to different valuation methodologies which might possibly be adopted for valuating the Project Land and the existing constructions erected thereon, including without limitation the market comparable method and the depreciated replacement cost method. Since there is no readily identifiable market comparable transactions for the Independent Property Valuer to adopt the market comparable method in valuating the Project Land and the existing constructions erected thereon as mentioned above, the Company, having reviewed the key assumptions adopted by the Independent Property Valuer and taking into account the actual condition of the Project Land and the existing constructions erected thereon, is of the view that the depreciated replacement cost method together with the key assumptions adopted in the valuation of the Project Land with the existing constructions erected thereon are fair and reasonable.

Consideration Shares

The Consideration Shares will be allotted and issued to the Vendors at a price of HK$2.55 per Consideration Share, which was determined after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and the Vendors with reference to the net asset value of the Company and the market prices of the Shares prior to the date of the letter of intent entered into between the Company and the Venders on 23 May 2017, which represents:

  • (i) a discount of approximately 6.6% to the closing price of HK$2.73 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on 23 May 2017;

  • (ii) a discount of approximately 29.0% to the average closing price of approximately HK$3.59 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the last five trading days immediately prior to the date of the Sale and Purchase Agreement;

  • (iii) a discount of approximately 43.3% to the closing price of HK$4.50 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date; and

  • (iv) a premium of approximately 318.0% over the audited consolidated net asset value per Share of approximately HK$0.61 as at 30 June 2017.

During the Twelve Months Period, the lowest closing price of the Shares was HK$2.11 recorded on 16 December 2016, while the highest closing price of the Shares was HK$3.69 recorded on the last two trading days prior to the date of the Sale and Purchase Agreement. The average daily closing price of the Shares during the Twelve Months Period is approximately HK$2.43. The Issue Price is within the lowest and highest range, and represents a premium of approximately 4.90% of the daily average of the closing price of the Shares during the Twelve Months Period.

  • 8 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Issue Price was agreed upon when the Letter of Intent was entered into on 23 May 2017. On the same date, the Company published the Voluntary Announcement and since then, the stock price of the Company had risen gradually and the closing price of the Shares reached HK$3.69 on the last two trading days prior to the date of the Sale and Purchase Agreement, which was the highest closing price of the Shares recorded during the Twelve Months Period.

An analysis of the closing stock price of the Shares during the Twelve Months Period (excluding the period from the trading day immediately after the publication of the Voluntary Announcement to the last trading day immediately preceding the date of the Sale and Purchase Agreement, i.e. from 24 May 2017 to 16 June 2017) is set out below:

Average closing stock price of the Shares: HK$2.36
Lowest closing stock price of the Shares: HK$2.11
Highest closing stock price of the Shares: HK$2.85

As illustrated above, the Issue Price is slightly above the average closing stock price of the Shares and lies close to the middle point between the lowest and highest closing stock price of the Shares during the Twelve Months Period if the period from the trading day immediately after the publication of the Voluntary Announcement to the last trading day immediately preceding the date of the Sale and Purchase Agreement is excluded.

The Board, while negotiating on the Issue Price, had considered the trend of the stock price of the Shares prior to the execution of the Letter of Intent and had taken into account the potential positive impact on the stock price of the Shares which may be brought about by the Acquisition.

In addition, the average trading volume of the Shares during the Twelve Months Period is approximately 878,600 Shares, in which the number of Consideration Shares is approximately 92 times of the average trading volume of the Shares during the Twelve Months Period. Given that (i) the Issue Price is within the lowest and highest range of the closing price of the Shares during the Twelve Months Period, (ii) the daily turnover of the Shares during the Twelve Months Period is significantly lower when compared with the number of Consideration Shares, and (iii) the issue of Consideration Shares will broaden the Company’s shareholder base and at the same time allow the Company to allocate its internal resources to the further development of the Group’s business, the Directors are of the view that the Issue Price is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The total number of Consideration Shares to be allotted and issued upon Completion based on the Issue Price is 80,447,059. The number of Consideration Shares to be allotted and issued to each of the Vendors upon Completion is as follows:

Vendor Number of Consideration Shares

Swift Fortune Holdings Limited 60,335,294 (75.0% of the Consideration Shares) 777 Logistics Warehouse Holdings Limited 20,111,765 (25.0% of the Consideration Shares)

80,447,059

Total:

  • 9 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Consideration Shares represent approximately 13.18% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date and approximately 11.65% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares.

The Consideration Shares will be allotted and issued by the Company pursuant to the Specific Mandate and when issued, will rank equally in all respects with the Shares in issue on the date of allotment and issue and free and clear of any pledge, loan, encumbrance and restriction on transfer. An application will be made to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consideration Shares.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Acquisition will not result in a change in control of the Company.

INFORMATION RELATING TO THE TARGET GROUP

The Target Company is an investment holding company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands on 22 April 2015. The HK Subsidiary is an investment holding company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong on 9 March 2015 and is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Target Company.

The WFOE is a limited liability company established under the laws of the PRC on 12 November 2015 with a registered capital of US$25,000,000 and is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the HK Subsidiary.

The WFOE has not commenced its business and is currently constructing a logistics and warehouse centre on the Project Land which, upon completion, could provide bonded logistics services of raw materials, equipment and supplies for papermaking enterprises and raw materials suppliers for papermaking enterprises in the southern part of PRC. It is expected that the logistics and warehouse centre on the Project Land will have the required facilities to be utilised as a platform to provide modernised bonded warehousing services, terminal services, and services relating to importing and exporting goods and ancillary services, customs and clearance and regional distribution for papermaking enterprises etc. Owing to the Target Group’s business nature, there is no major suppliers.

The main construction of the four warehouses of the first stage of development of the Project Land has been substantially completed while the ancillary facilities such as roads, office building and securities system are under construction. The warehouses will be used for storing raw materials, equipment and supplies for the Target Group’s customers. The ancillary office building will be used for housing staff which is necessary for the provision of bonded warehouse services and other ancillary services. The first stage of development of the Project Land is expected to be completed by the last quarter of 2017 and the logistics and warehouse centre is expected to come into operation in the first quarter of 2018.

It is expected that six additional warehouses will be constructed in the second stage of development of the Project land. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Target Group had not fixed any plan with regard to the commencement of the second stage of development of the Project Land.

The approvals obtained by the WFOE include (i) the industrial and commercial registration certificate dated 23 December 2016 issued by the Yangjiang Industry and Commerce Department; (ii) certificate of approval dated 9 October 2016 and (iii) registration certificate of customs export supervised bonded warehouse issued by Yangjiang Customs.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

INFORMATION OF THE GROUP AND REASONS FOR ENTERING INTO THE SALE AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT

The Group is principally engaged in the research and development, manufacture and sale of industrial automation systems, sludge treatment products and related services. Since year 2014, the Group has been developing the project contracting services business, an one-stop service which includes the provision of “design”, “production” and “service”. The Group’s industrial automation systems and sludge treatment products are custom-built in accordance with the specifications and requirements provided by the Group’s customers, which include various papermaking enterprises in the PRC. In addition, the Group is also engaged in the provision of after-sales and other services to the Group’s existing customers.

It was mentioned in the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017 that the Group had made remarkable achievements along with the paper industry in year 2017. For the year ended 30 June 2017, the Group’s turnover and profit were approximately RMB416 million and approximately RMB30.4 million respectively, representing an increase of approximately 27.1% and approximately 12.1% as compared with the same period in year 2016. The increase was mainly attributable to the Group’s successful transformation from the provision of industrial automation systems to the provision of project contracting services for the paper industry.

For the year ended 30 June 2017, the contracts signed by the Group had a total value of approximately RMB644.3 million, out of which the contract value in respect of project contracting services for the paper industry accounted for about RMB437.9 million, which represents approximately 68.0% of the total contract value for the same period and an increase of approximately 52.2% as compared to the same period in year 2016.

The Directors are of the view that the current demand on project contracting services for the paper industry is strong, mainly due to the lack of technologies and engineers in many large and mediumsized papermaking enterprises. The Group has more than 15 years’ experience in the paper industry, with more than 100 engineers and project management personnel who can assist customers to build different papermaking production lines and provide solutions.

The Target Group is currently constructing a logistics and warehouse centre on the Project Land located in the Guangdong Province. Upon completion of the construction which is expected to be around the end of year 2017, the centre can provide bonded logistics services of raw materials, equipment and supplies for papermaking enterprises in the PRC. The paper industry has been developing rapidly in Guangdong Province of the PRC. According to the Almanac of China Paper Industry 2017 published by the China Technical Association of Paper Industry, there were over 180 papermaking enterprises in Guangdong Province of the PRC and the profits generated by the papermaking and paper product manufacturing industries in Guangdong Province in year 2016 amounted to approximately RMB11.9 billion, representing an increase of approximately 35.7% as compared with the same period in year 2015, while the revenue generated by the main business of the papermaking enterprises in Guangdong Province in year 2016 amounted to approximately RMB205.2 billion, representing an increase of approximately 8.5% as compared with the same period in year 2015. Although the paper industry in the PRC is active, the supply of raw materials for paper industry within the PRC, such as paper pulp, is limited and papermaking enterprises rely heavily on imported paper pulp. According to the Competitiveness Report

  • 17 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

of China’s Paper Industry in 2016 published by the China National Pulp and Paper Research Institute, the PRC recorded a net import of paper pulp of approximately 21.0 million tons in year 2015 and had been the largest pulp importing country in the world. Considering the market condition of the paper industry in Guangdong Province of the PRC, the Board is of the view that having a logistic and warehouse centre in the Guangdong Province would support and complement the Group’s one-stop project contracting services to the papermaking enterprises in the Guangdong Province by providing logistic and storage services for the raw materials imported for the papermaking enterprises.

Having further considered that (a) due to the improving national living standard and the shift of market consumption and logistic pattern driven by online shopping, the demand for the production equipment for packaging paper and household paper is strong, (b) in response to the latest policies implemented by the PRC government, the paper manufacturing industry in the PRC has to leverage on intelligence, automation, human resources and technological innovation to speed up the reform of the enterprises for long-term development and will hence bring numerous business opportunities to the Group, and (c) the Acquisition could help strengthening the Group’s after-sales and maintenance services as the Group would be able to store the components of the machines and automation systems of the Group in the logistic and warehouse centre and the technicians of the Group staying at the logistic and warehouse centre could provide immediate and all-round support and services to the Group’s customers in the Guangdong Province, the Board is of the view that through acquiring the Target Group, the Company will be able to establish a one-stop integrated service platform by providing comprehensive and more efficient project contracting services to the papermaking enterprises, including logistics and storage services, and all-round maintenance services, and the Directors believe that it would help the Group to expand its customer base and market share in the market segment of papermaking industry, especially in the Guangdong Province. Since as far as the Directors are aware, there is no other logistics and warehouse centre of similar scale and size in proximity to the Project Land, the Directors expect that it would help meeting potential future increasing demands of the Group’s products and services in relation to the paper industry through the logistics and warehouse centre.

As the Consideration will be fully satisfied by the Consideration Shares, there will be no financial burden to fund the Acquisition. The Directors are of the view that the terms and conditions of the Sale and Purchase Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Company had made announcements with regard to the following potential acquisitions:

  • (i) the potential acquisition of the entire equity interest in 無錫銳帆技術有限公司 (Wuxi Refine Technology Co., Ltd), a company incorporated in the PRC with limited liability and is principally engaged in the business of maintenance and upgrade services (please refer to the Company’s announcement dated 31 May 2017 for further details); and

  • (ii) the potential acquisition of the entire equity interest in (a) 固安安騰精密篩分設備製造 有限公司 (Gu’an Anteng Precision Screening Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd.), a company incorporated in the PRC and is principally engaged in manufacturing and sale of precision screening equipment in the PRC, and (b) 固安騰飛篩板有限公司 (Gu’an Tengfei Screening Plates Co., Ltd.), a company incorporated in the PRC and is principally engaged in manufacturing and sale of screening plates in the PRC (please refer to the Company’s announcement dated 2 October 2017 for further details).

Save as aforesaid or otherwise mentioned herein, and apart from intra-group liabilities and normal trade payables in the ordinary course of business, the Enlarged Group did not have any other outstanding borrowings, mortgages, charges, debentures, loan capital and overdraft, debt securities or other similar indebtedness, finance leases or hire purchase commitment, liabilities under acceptances or acceptance credits or any guarantees or other material contingent liabilities at the close of business on 31 August 2017, being the latest practicable date for the purpose of this statement of indebtedness prior to the printing of this circular.

3. MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors were not aware of any material adverse change in the financial or trading position of the Group since 30 June 2016, the date to which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Group were made up.

4. WORKING CAPITAL STATEMENT

The Directors are of the opinion that, after taking into account the effects of the Completion and the financial resources available to the Enlarged Group, the Enlarged Group has sufficient working capital to satisfy its requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date of publication of this circular.

5. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECT OF THE GROUP

The Group is principally engaged in the research and development, manufacture and sale of industrial automation systems, sludge treatment products and related services. In addition, the Group is also engaged in the provision of after-sales and other services to the Group’s existing customers. The Group has over 15 years of experience in the provision of equipment to the paper industry and will seek to further expand this business segment.

Under the impact of various factors such as tightened environmental protection policies and heightened elimination of backward production capacity in the paper industry in the PRC, there was a massive shutdown of industry players and the industry has evolved into an increasingly concentrated industry. Large paper enterprises are expected to invest more resources to expand production capacity and thus strengthen their position in the market. Meanwhile, small and medium enterprises are expected to upgrade their existing equipment or purchase advanced equipment to enhance their competitiveness. The government has also demanded implementation of energy conservation and emission reduction measures nationwide in full swing by releasing further environmental protection requirements in year 2017. Such moves by the government will also increase the capital expenditure of paper manufacturers to invest in environmentally friendly facilities and equipment to meet the tightened environmental protection requirements and therefore present new opportunities for the Group. In January 2017, the Group signed an agreement with a Taiwanese environmental protection company in respect of treatment of paper sludge and solid waste in the paper industry. The Group will become the only strategic partner of the Taiwanese company in the paper industry for selling equipment and solutions for treatment of paper sludge and waste to paper manufacturers.

  • I-2 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Despite the existing overcapacity problem in the papermaking industry, there are yet many new paper production lines and undersupplied products, such as household paper and packaging paper, in the market in the PRC. With the Group’s industry experience built up over the years, the Group has been able and will continue to deliver a comprehensive range of paper production line solutions to its customers by leveraging its own advantages in the industry. By doing this, it can both offer support to production line design as well as assist customers in gaining access to financing channels, thus enabling the Group to further transform from merely an equipment supplier to an integrated equipment service provider. Currently, the demand on project contracting services for the paper industry is strong, mainly due to the lack of technologies and engineers in many large and medium-sized papermaking enterprises. The Group will continue to assist customers to build different papermaking production lines and provide project contracting services.

The Group also aims to expand to the international papermaking market. During the year ended 30 June 2017, the Group had set out overseas business division to explore the overseas markets. Staff of overseas business division have visited papermaking enterprises in countries in the Middle East and Southeast Asia. The Group had contacted with a number of potential customers to explore business opportunities.

Going forward, the Group will also (i) increase its investment in research and development, enhance its digital and smart products and services to meet the needs of the papermaking industry, improve its product quality while effectively controlling costs and increase its efficiency through collaboration with universities or technology corporations; (ii) in addition to wastewater treatment, render support to paper manufacturers in the treatment of sludge and solid waste produced in the papermaking process; and (iii) provide inexpensive and high qualities equipment and services to the papermaking enterprises in the regions falling under the “Belt and Road” initiative.

Dear Sirs,

We report on the historical financial information of Fu An 777 Logistics Limited (the “Target Company”) and its subsidiaries (together, the “Target Group”) set out on pages 3 to 31,which comprises the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and statements of cash flows of the Target Group for the period from 22 April 2015 (the date of incorporation) to 31 December 2015, the year ended 31 December 2016, and the four months ended 30 April 2017 (the “Relevant Periods”), and the consolidated statements of financial position of the Target Group and the statements of financial position of the Target Company as at 31 December 2015 and 2016 and 30 April 2017 and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (together, the “Historical Financial Information”). The Historical Financial Information set out on pages 3 to 21 forms an integral part of this report, which has been prepared for inclusion in the circular of Huazhang Technology Holding Limited (the “Company”) dated 10 October 2017 (the “Circular”) in connection with the proposed acquisition of 100% equity interests of the Target Company by the Company.

Directors’ responsibility for the Historical Financial Information

The directors of the Target Company are responsible for the preparation of the Historical Financial Information that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation set out in notes 2.1 to the Historical Financial Information, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the Historical Financial Information that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Reporting accountants’ responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Historical Financial Information and to report our opinion to you. We conducted our work in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Investment Circular Reporting Engagements 200 Accountants’ Reports on Historical Financial Information in Investment Circulars issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA"). This standard requires that we comply with ethical standards and plan and perform our work to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Financial Information is free from material misstatement.

  • II-1 -

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

Our work involved performing procedures to obtain evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Financial Information. The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountants’ judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the Historical Financial Information, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the reporting accountants consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the Historical Financial Information that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the basis of preparation set out in note 2.1 to the Historical Financial Information, in order to design procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Our work also included evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Historical Financial Information.

We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

OpInIOn

In our opinion, the Historical Financial Information gives, for the purposes of the accountants’ report, a true and fair view of the financial position of the Target Group and the Target Company as at 31 December 2015 and 2016 and 30 April 2017 and of the financial performance and cash flows of the Target Group for each of the Relevant Periods in accordance with the basis of preparation set out in notes 2.1 to the Historical Financial Information.

Review of interim comparative financial information

We have reviewed the interim comparative financial information of the Target Group which comprises the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the four months ended 30 April 2016 and other explanatory information (the "Interim Comparative Financial Information"). The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Interim Comparative Financial Information in accordance with the basis of preparation set out in note 2.1 to the Historical Financial Information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Interim Comparative Financial Information based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity issued by the HKICPA. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Interim Comparative Financial Information, for the purposes of the accountants' report, is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of preparation set out in note 2.1 to the Historical Financial Information.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

2.1 BASIS OF pRepARATIOn

The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (which include all Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards, and Interpretations, collectively, “HKFRSs”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”) and accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong. All HKFRSs effective for the accounting period commencing from 1 January 2017, together with the relevant transitional provisions, have been early adopted by the Target Group in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information throughout the Relevant Periods and in the period covered by the Interim Comparative Financial Information.

The Historical Financial Information has been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Basis of consolidation

The Historical Financial Information includes the financial statements of the Target Company and its subsidiaries for the Relevant Periods. A subsidiary is an entity (including a structured entity), directly or indirectly, controlled by the Target Company. Control is achieved when the Target Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give the Target Group the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee).

When the Target Company has, directly or indirectly, less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Target Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

  • (a) the contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee;

  • (b) rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and

  • (c) the Target Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Target Company, using consistent accounting policies. The results of subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the Target Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the parent of the Target Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Target Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

The Target Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control described above. A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.

  • II-10 -

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

If the Target Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises (i) the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary, (ii) the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest and (iii) the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity; and recognises (i) the fair value of the consideration received, (ii) the fair value of any investment retained and (iii) any resulting surplus or deficit in profit or loss. The Target Group’s share of components previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss or retained profits, as appropriate, on the same basis as would be required if the Target Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

Notwithstanding the Target Group has consolidated net current liabilities of RMB 163,436,000 as at 30 April 2017, the Historical Financial Information has been prepared by the directors on a going concern basis. The ultimate shareholders of the Target Company have undertaken to provide continuing financial support to enable the Target Company to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due. Therefore, the Target Company will have sufficient funds to meet its daily working capital requirements for the foreseeable future.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

Management is in the process of making an assessment of the impact of the above new standards and amendments to standards on the Historical Financial Information of the Target Group upon initial application.

2.3 SummARY OF SIGnIFICAnT ACCOunTInG pOLICIeS

Impairment of non-financial assets

Where an indication of impairment exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required (other than inventories, construction contract assets, financial assets, investment properties and non-current assets/a disposal group classified as held for sale), the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal, and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

An impairment loss is recognised only if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. An impairment loss is charged to the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the period in which it arises in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.

An assessment is made at the end of each reporting period as to whether there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss of an asset other than goodwill is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount of that asset, but not to an amount higher than the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any depreciation/amortisation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of such an impairment loss is credited to the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in which it arises, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is accounted for in accordance with the relevant accounting policy for that revalued asset.

Related parties

A party is considered to be related to the Target Group if:

  • (a) the party is a person or a close member of that person’s family and that person

  • (i) has control or joint control over the Target Group;

  • (ii) has significant influence over the Target Group; or

  • II-12 -

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

  • (iii) is a member of the key management personnel of the Target Group or of a parent of the Target Group;

or

  • (b) the party is an entity where any of the following conditions applies:

  • (i) the entity and the Target Group are members of the same group;

  • (ii) one entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity (or of a parent, subsidiary or fellow subsidiary of the other entity);

  • (iii) the entity and the Target 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 Target Group or an entity related to the Target Group;

  • (vi) the entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in (a);

  • (vii) a person identified in (a)(i) 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); and

  • (viii) the entity, or any member of a group of which it is a part, provides key management personnel services to the Target Group or to the parent of the Target Group.

Construction in progress

Construction in progress represents a warehouse and related facilities under construction, which are stated at cost less any impairment losses, and are not depreciated. Cost comprises the direct costs of construction and capitalised borrowing costs on related borrowed funds during the period of construction. Construction in progress is reclassified to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for use.

Leases

Leases that transfer substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets to the Target Group, other than legal title, are accounted for as finance leases. At the inception of a finance lease, the cost of the leased asset is capitalised at the present value of the minimum lease payments and recorded together with the obligation, excluding the interest element, to reflect the purchase and financing. Assets held under capitalised finance leases, including prepaid land lease payments under finance leases, are included in property, plant and equipment, and depreciated over the shorter of the lease terms and the estimated useful lives of the assets. The finance costs of such leases are charged to the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income so as to provide a constant periodic rate of charge over the lease terms.

  • II-13 -

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the lessor are accounted for as operating leases. Where the Target Group is the lessor, assets leased by the Group under operating leases are included in non-current assets, and rentals receivable under the operating leases are credited to the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on the straight-line basis over the lease terms. Where the Target Group is the lessee, rentals payable under operating leases net of any incentives received from the lessor are charged to the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on the straight-line basis over the lease terms.

Prepaid land lease payments under operating leases are initially stated at cost and subsequently recognised on the straight-line basis over the lease terms.

Investments and other financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables and available-for-sale financial investments, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial assets, except in the case of financial assets recorded at fair value through profit or loss.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of loans and receivables is as follows:

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial measurement, such assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method less any allowance for impairment. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and includes fees or costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. The effective interest rate amortisation is included in other income and gains in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The loss arising from impairment is recognised in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in finance costs for loans and in other expenses for receivables.

  • II-14 -

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

Derecognition of financial assets

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e., removed from the Target Group’s consolidated statement of financial position) when:

  • the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or

  • the Target Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a “pass-through” arrangement; and either (a) the Target Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Target Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When the Target Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risk and rewards of ownership of the asset. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the Target Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Target Group’s continuing involvement. In that case, the Target Group also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Target Group has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Target Group could be required to repay.

Impairment of financial assets

The Target 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. An impairment exists if one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset have an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that a debtor 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 observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

Financial assets carried at amortised cost

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the Target Group first assesses whether impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Target Group determines that no objective

  • II-15 -

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.

The amount of any impairment loss identified 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 yet been incurred). The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e., the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition).

The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the loss is recognised in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Interest income continues to be accrued on the reduced carrying amount using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. Loans and receivables together with any associated allowance are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the Target Group.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is increased or reduced by adjusting the allowance account. If a write-off is later recovered, the recovery is credited to other expenses in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Target Group’s financial liabilities include other payables and amounts due to related parties.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of loans and borrowings is as follows:

  • II-16 -

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

Loans and borrowings

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost. Gains and losses are recognised in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the effective interest rate amortisation process.

Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. The effective interest rate amortisation is included in finance costs in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled, or expires.

When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and a recognition of a new liability, and the difference between the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash, are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and have a short maturity of generally within three months when acquired, less bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Target Group’s cash management.

For the purpose of the consolidated statement of financial position, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and at banks, including term deposits, and assets similar in nature to cash, which are not restricted as to use.

Government grants

Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attaching conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the costs, which it is intended to compensate, are expensed.

  • II-17 -

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, i.e., assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. The capitalisation of such borrowing costs ceases when the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs capitalised. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

Foreign currencies

The Historical Financial Information is presented in Renminbi (“RMB”). Each entity in the Target Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. Foreign currency transactions recorded by the entities in the Target Group are initially recorded using their respective functional currency rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency rates of exchange ruling at the end of the reporting period. Differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was measured. The gain or loss arising on translation of a non-monetary item measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation difference on the item whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss is also recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively).

The functional currencies of certain entities in the Target Group are currencies other than RMB. As at the end of the reporting period, the assets and liabilities of these entities are translated into RMB at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period and their consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated into Hong Kong dollars at the weighted average exchange rates for the year.

The resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the exchange fluctuation reserve. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of other comprehensive income relating to that particular foreign operation is recognised in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

UNAUDITED PROFORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

APPENDIX III

(iii) Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information of the Enlarged Group

  1. The balances were extracted from the audited consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2017 as set out in the Company’s published annual report.

  2. The balances were extracted from the audited consolidated statement of financial position of the Target Group as at 30 April 2017 as set out in the accountants’ report of the Target Group in Appendix II to this Circular.

  3. Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), the shareholders of the Target Group (the “Vendors”) are required to inject USD6,040,000 to the Target Group, or equivalent to RMB41,900,000 based on exchange rate of USD1 to RMB6.55, before completion of the Acquisition.

  4. According to the Agreement, the Vendors will transfer the shareholder loan approximately amounted to RMB126,191,000 to the Company at HK$1.00.

  5. The pro forma adjustment reflects the allocation of the cost of the Acquisition to the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group and fair value adjustment of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group, which represents:

(a) Fair value adjustment of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group

Upon completion of the Acquisition, the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group in the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of the Enlarged Group will be accounted for at fair value under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard No. 3 Business Combinations .

For the purpose of this Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, the Directors had assumed that the carrying values of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group approximated to their fair values except for the prepaid land lease payments.

According to a valuation report, prepared by an independent professional valuer Colliers International (Hong Kong) Ltd., the fair value of prepaid land lease payment is estimated at RMB71,000,000 as of 30 April 2017.

Deferred tax liabilities related to prepaid land lease payments and property, plant and equipment are estimated by applying PRC enterprise income tax rate of 25% to the amount of fair value adjustment on intangible assets.

Total 58,471 9,397 67,868

(b) Recognition of goodwill in relation to the Acquisition

Goodwill of the Enlarged Group represents the excess of the Acquisition consideration over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets of the Target Group. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will issue 80,447,059 shares (the “Consideration Shares”) to the Vendors upon the completion of the Acquisition.

The fair value of Consideration Shares are calculated as below:

The recognition of goodwill arising from the Acquisition is analyzed as follows:

(5,466)
41,900

For the purpose of this Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, the Company has assessed if there is any impairment loss on the goodwill arising from the Acquisition in accordance with the Hong Kong Accounting Standard No. 36 Impairment of Assets , which is consistent with the Company’s accounting policy. The Directors are of the view that, after performing the impairment assessment, there is no impairment indication of the goodwill arising from the Acquisition as set out in the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information.

Since the fair value of Consideration Shares at the completion date of the Acquisition may be substantially different from the value used in the unaudited pro forma statement, the goodwill recognized at the completion date of the Acquisition may be different from the amount presented above.

  1. The pro forma adjustment represents the transaction costs of the Acquisition incurred by the Group including expense charged by legal, accounting and other professional parties. The total amount is estimated at RMB550,000.

  2. According to Guoshuihan [2009] No. 698 and Public Notice [2015] No. 7 of the State Administration of Taxation (the ‘‘SAT’’), if the Chinese tax authority considers the offshore holding structure as lacking reasonable commercial purpose and that the offshore share transfer was driven by tax-avoidance in China, it will re-characterize the offshore transaction as a direct transfer of the underlying PRC company and impose Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) on the capital gains generated by the offshore sellers. The offshore sellers act as the EIT tax payer and the buyer is the withholding agent.

  3. III-6 -

UNAUDITED PROFORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

APPENDIX III

When determining whether there is reasonable commercial purposes for a transaction, the Chinese tax authority would consider various factors, mainly including the equity value of PRC taxable assets, asset value and income derived from PRC taxable assets, economic substance of the offshore holding company, duration of existence of offshore holding companies, overseas income tax burden of the transaction, alternative transaction factor, applicable treaty factor, etc.

According to the Agreement, the Vendors of the Target Group are committed to settling the EIT arising from the Acquisition by themselves and the Vendors will do a voluntary report to the local tax authority about the transaction for further handling. Therefore, the management concludes the Enlarged Group’s tax exposure due to the Guoshuihan [2009] No. 698 and Public Notice [2015] No. 7 of SAT is remote and does not include EIT in the pro forma financial information.

  1. Apart from the Acquisition, on 14 August 2017, the board approved an acquisition of Hangzhou MCN Paper Tech Co., Ltd and Hangzhou Haorong Technology Co., Ltd (the “MCN Group”) in mainland China. The initial consideration is RMB34,000,000, with RMB12,400,000 in cash consideration and RMB 21,600,000 in share consideration. There is a contingent consideration stipulated in the agreement, which is based on profit performance over next two years after acquisition with maximum amount of RMB34,000,000. The MCN Group is mainly engaged in R&D of papermaking industrial products. The financial impact to acquire the MCN Group is not included in the unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, which is solely to demonstrate how the Acquisition might have affected the historical financial information of the Group as if the Acquisition had been completed on 30 April 2017.

Terms defined in this appendix applies to this appendix only.

The Board of Directors

Huazhang Technology Holding Limited Cricket Square Hutchins Drive PO Box 2681 Grand Cayman, KY1-111 Cayman Islands

10 October 2017

Dear Sirs,

INSTRUCTIONS, PURPOSE AND VALUATION DATE

We refer to your instructions for us to assess the market value of a property (the “Property”) located in The People’s Republic of China (“The PRC”) to be acquired by Huazhang Technology Holding Limited and its subsidiaries (“the Group”). We confirm that we have carried out inspection, made relevant enquiries and searches and obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing you with our opinion of the market value of the Property as at 31 August 2017 (the “Valuation Date”).

BASIS OF VALUATION

Our valuation has been undertaken on the basis of market value, which is defined by The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors as “the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion”.

Market value is understood as the value of an asset or liability estimated without regard to costs of sale or purchase (or transaction) and without offset for any associated taxes or potential taxes.

  • IV-1 -

APPENDIX IV VALUATION REPORT OF THE PROJECT LAND AND THE CONsTRUCTION ERECTED THEREON

This estimate specifically excludes an estimated price inflated or deflated by special considerations or concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale, or any element of special value.

VALUATION METHODOLOGY

In the valuation of the Property, due to the nature of the buildings and structures and the particular location in which it is situated, there are no readily identifiable market comparable transactions. Therefore in the course of our valuation, we have considered its value on the basis of its depreciated replacement costs.

The Depreciated Replacement Cost Method when used must always be subject to adequate potential profitability of the concerned business (or to service potential of the entity from the use of assets as a whole) paying due regard to the total assets employed.

Depreciated Replacement Cost is based on an estimate of the market value for the existing use of the land, plus the current gross replacement (reproduction) costs of the improvements, less deduction for physical deterioration and all relevant forms of obsolescence and optimization. In arriving at the value of the land portion, reference has been made to the sales evidence as available in the locality.

The Depreciated Replacement Cost of the property generally provides the most reliable indication of value for the properties in the absence of a known market based on comparable sales.

VALUATION STANDARDS

The valuation has been carried out in accordance with The HKIS Valuation Standards (2012 Edition) published by The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors with reference to the International Valuation Standards 2017 published by the International Valuation Standards Council effective from 1 July 2017, and the requirements set out in Chapter 5 and Practice Note 12 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

LAND TENURE AND TITLE INVESTIGATION

We have been provided with copies of documents in relation to the titles of the Property. However, we have not scrutinized the original documents to verify ownership or to verify any amendments, which may not appear on the copies handed to us. We have relied to a considerable extent on the information provided by the Group.

We have relied on the advice given by The PRC legal adviser, ALLBRIGHT LAW OFFICES, on the PRC laws, regarding the titles to the Property in The PRC. We do not accept liability for any interpretation that we have placed on such information, which is more properly placed within the sphere of the legal adviser.

All legal documents disclosed in this letter and Valuation Certificate are for reference only. No responsibility is assumed for any legal matters concerning the legal titles to the Property set out in this letter and Valuation Certificate.

  • IV-2 -

VALUATION REPORT OF THE PROJECT LAND AND THE CONsTRUCTION ERECTED THEREON

APPENDIX IV

SOURCES OF INFORMATION

We have relied to a considerable extent on the information provided by the Group and The PRC legal adviser, in respect of the titles to the Property in The PRC. We have also accepted advice given to us on matters such as identification of the Property, particulars of occupancy, development scheme, development costs, statutory notices, easements, tenure, areas, site plans and all other relevant matters. Dimensions, measurements and areas included in the valuation are based on information contained in the documents provided to us and are, therefore, only approximations.

We have also been advised by the Group that no material factors or information have been omitted or withheld from the information supplied and consider that we have been provided with sufficient information to reach an informed view. We believe that the assumptions used in preparing our valuation are reasonable and have had no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information provided to us by the Group which is material to the valuation.

SITE MEASUREMENT

We have not carried out detailed on-site measurements to verify the correctness of the site area in respect of the Property but have assumed that the areas shown on the documents and plans provided to us are correct. All documents have been used as reference only and all dimensions, measurements and areas are approximations. No on-site measurement has been taken.

SITE INSPECTION

We have inspected the Property on 26 June 2017. We are unaware of any adverse ground conditions affecting the Property and have not had sight of a ground and soil survey. We have not carried out investigations on site to determine the suitability of the ground conditions and services etc. for any future development. Our valuation is prepared on the assumption that these aspects are satisfactory and that no extraordinary expenses or delays will be incurred during the construction period. We have further assumed that there is no significant pollution or contamination in the locality which may affect the construction on the Property.

VALUATION ASSUMPTIONS

Our valuation has been made on the assumption that the owner sells the Property on the open market without the benefit of deferred terms contracts, leasebacks, joint ventures, or any similar arrangements which would affect its value.

No allowances have been made in our valuation for any charges, mortgages or amounts owing neither on the Property nor for any expenses or taxes which may be incurred in effecting a sale. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the Property is free from encumbrances, restrictions and outgoings of an onerous nature which could affect its value.

As the Property is held under long term land use rights, we have assumed that the owner has free and uninterrupted rights to use the Property for the whole of the unexpired term of the land use rights.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS ON THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX V

Set out below is the management discussion and analysis of the Target Group for the period from 22 April 2015 (the date of incorporation) to 31 December 2015, the year ended 31 December 2016 and the four months ended 30 April 2016 and 2017 (the “Relevant Periods”).

MARKET OVERVIEW

The paper industry has been developing rapidly in Guangdong Province of the PRC. According to the Almanac of China Paper Industry 2017 published by the China Technical Association of Paper Industry, there were over 180 papermaking enterprises in Guangdong Province of the PRC and the profits generated by the papermaking and paper product manufacturing industries in Guangdong Province in year 2016 amounted to approximately RMB11.9 billion, representing an increase of approximately 35.7% as compared with the same period in year 2015, while the revenue generated by the main business of the papermaking enterprises in Guangdong Province in year 2016 amounted to approximately RMB205.2 billion, representing an increase of approximately 8.5% as compared with the same period in year 2015. Although the paper industry in the PRC is active, the supply of raw materials for paper industry within the PRC, such as paper pulp, is limited and papermaking enterprises rely heavily on imported paper pulp. According to the Competitiveness Report of China’s Paper Industry in 2016 published by the China National Pulp and Paper Research Institute, the PRC recorded a net import of paper pulp of approximately 21.0 million tons in year 2015 and had been the largest pulp importing country in the world. Considering the market condition of the paper industry in Guangdong Province of the PRC, the Board is of the view that having a logistic and warehouse centre in the Guangdong Province would support and complement the Group’s one-stop project contracting services to the papermaking enterprises in the Guangdong Province by providing logistic and storage services for the raw materials imported for the papermaking enterprises.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

The Target Group consisted of the Target Company, the HK Subsidiary and the WFOE. The primary activity of the Target Company and the HK Subsidiary is investment holding. The Target Company wholly owns the HK Subsidiary, which in turn wholly owns the WFOE. The principal asset of the WFOE is the Project Land and the construction erected thereon, with a total site area of approximately 193,203 square meters. The Project Land, which is free from any charge or mortgage, was granted by the PRC government with a lease period from 23 December 2015 to 22 December 2065 specified in the land use right certificate. The WFOE has obtained all approvals from the relevant PRC authorities necessary for conducting logistics and warehouse business on the Project Land.

The WFOE has not commenced its business and is currently constructing a logistics and warehouse centre on the Project Land which, upon completion, could provide bonded logistics services of raw materials, equipment and supplies for papermaking enterprises and raw materials suppliers in the southern part of PRC. It is expected that the logistics and warehouse centre on the Project Land will have the required facilities to be utilised as a platform to provide modernised bonded warehousing services, terminal services, and services relating to importing and exporting goods and ancillary services, customs and clearance and regional distribution for papermaking enterprises etc. Owing to the Target Group’s business nature, there is no major suppliers.
