The Company is listed in both Mainland and Hong Kong stock exchange, apart from the relevant regulations mentioned above, the financial statements also comply with applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

3.Significant changes in accounting policies

The Company has early adopted “Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 9 – Employee Benefits” (Revised), “Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 30 - Presentation of Financial Statements” (Revised), “Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 39 – Fair Value Measurement”, “Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 40 – Joint Arrangements” and “Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 33 – Consolidated Financial Statements” (Revised) issued by the Ministry of Finance in January and February 2014.

“Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 9 – Employee Benefits” (Revised)

Pursuant to “Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 9 – Employee Benefits” (Revised), retirement benefit plan are classified as defined contribution scheme and defined benefit scheme. Defined contribution scheme refers to a retirement benefit plan in which the enterprises make fixed contributions to an independent fund and are no longer subject to further payment obligations; while the defined benefit scheme refers to a retirement benefit plan other than the defined contribution scheme. During the accounting period in which an employee provides service, the amount payable calculated under defined contribution scheme shall be recognized as a liability and recorded in profit and loss of the current period or in assets. In respect of the defined benefit scheme, the enterprise shall use the projected unit credit method and make appropriate actuarial assumptions to measure the obligations arising from the defined benefit scheme, attribute the welfare obligations calculated using the formula stipulated by the defined benefit scheme to the service period of the employee, and record the obligation in the current profit and loss, whereas changes arising from the re-measurement of the net liabilities or net assets of the defined benefit scheme shall be included in the other comprehensive income. Moreover, the standard also regulates the short-term salary and other long-term employee benefits provided by enterprises to employees. The management of the Company is of the opinion that the adoption of the standard had no material effect on the financial statements of the Company.

“Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 30 - Presentation of Financial Statements” (Revised)

“Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 30 - Presentation of Financial Statements” (Revised) further regulates the presentation of financial statements. In addition, the standard requires other comprehensive income classified into the following two categories in the income statement: (1) items that will not be subsequently re-classified into profit and loss; (2) items that may be subsequently re-classified into profit and loss upon satisfaction of specified conditions. The Company has applied the above amendments and presented the financial statements as required.

“Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 39 – Fair Value Measurement”

“Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 39 – Fair Value Measurement” establishes the sole guidance for the measurement of fair value and the disclosure of fair value measurement. The standard defines fair value, which refers to the price receivable upon the sale of an asset or the price payable upon the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the date of measurement. The standard also stipulates more extensive requirements for the disclosure of fair value measurement. Apart from this, the adoption of the standards had no material effect on the recognition and measurement of financial statement items. The adoption of the standard has resulted in more extensive disclosure of fair value information in the financial statements of the Group for

Page 5 of 47

the year.

“Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 40 – Joint Arrangements”

“Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 40 – Joint Arrangements” regulates the classification and accounting treatment of a joint arrangement jointly controlled by two or more parties. Joint arrangements are classified into joint operations and joint ventures based on the structure, legal form, contractual terms agreed by the parties to the relevant arrangement and other facts and circumstances of the relevant arrangement. Joint operation refers to a joint arrangement in which the joint parties are entitled to the relevant assets of the arrangement and bear the relevant liabilities of the arrangement. Joint venture refers to a joint arrangement in which the joint parties are only entitled to the rights of net assets of the arrangement.

Joint venture and joint operation differ in both initial recognition and subsequent accounting treatment. Investment in a joint venture is accounted for under the equity method. Interest in a joint operation is accounted for by recognition based on share in the assets (including the share in any jointly owned assets), liabilities (including the share in any jointly accrued liabilities), revenues (including the share in the revenues generated from the joint operation) and expenses (including the share in any jointly accrued expenses). Each of the joint parties accounts for the assets and liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses in respect of its interests in the joint operation in accordance with the appropriate standards. The management of the Company is of the opinion that the adoption of the standard had no material effect on the financial statements of the Company.

“Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 33 – Consolidated Financial Statements” (Revised)

Pursuant to the “Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 33 – Consolidated Financial Statements” (Revised), the scope of consolidation of the consolidated financial statements shall be recognized on the basis of control. The standard has provided three essential elements of control: (a) the power over the investee; (b) share of or entitlement to the risk exposure of variable returns or the rights of reward of variable returns; and (c) the ability to affect the amount of returns by using its power. The amendment has included extensive guidance on complicated scenarios. The management of the Company is of the opinion that the adoption of the standard had no material effect on the financial statements of the Company.

The management of the Company is of the opinion that the adoption of the above standards had no material effect on the financial statements of the Company. These financial statements has been presented and made disclosures in accordance with the above standards.

On 17 January 2014, the Ministry of Finance issued “Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises Interpretation No. 6”, which had become effective since the date of issue. The management of the Company is of the opinion that the effectiveness of this Interpretation had no material effect on the financial position and operating results of the Group.

Notes:

1. All share options available for issue under the Scheme have been granted.

  • 2、 As Mr. Zhang Jian Jun served as a supervisor of the Company, he is no longer an eligible participant and the 56,000 share options held by Mr. Zhang lapsed.

Unless approved by the general meeting, the aggregate number of underlying shares which may be acquired by any participant through the Scheme or other effective share option incentive schemes of the Company (if any) at any time shall not exceed 1% of the Company’s total share capital of the same class, and the maximum entitlement which may be granted to a participant (including exercised, cancelled and outstanding share options) within any 12-month period shall not exceed 1% of the Company’s total share capital of the same class.

(3) The grant date of the share options

The grant date of the share options is 31 August 2011.

(4) Validity period of the share options

The validity period of the share options under the grant shall be a term of 5 years commencing from the grant date.

(5) Exercise Arrangement

The exercise of the share options under the grant is subject to a restriction period of 2 years, during which period the rights are not exercisable.

Subject to the fulfillment of the exercise conditions, the share options under the grant can be exercised in batches after the expiry of the 2-year period from the grant date according to the following exercise arrangement:

  • i. 33% of the share options granted to each participant shall become exercisable on the trading day immediately after the second anniversary of the grant date (2 September 2013) until the trading day falling on the fifth anniversary of the grant date (31 August 2016);

  • ii. another 33% of the share options granted to each participant shall become exercisable on the trading day immediately after the third anniversary of the grant date (1 September 2014) until the trading day falling on the fifth anniversary of the grant date (31 August 2016); and

  • iii. the remaining 34% of the share options granted to each participant shall become exercisable on the trading day immediately after the fourth anniversary of the grant date (1 September 2015) until the trading day falling on the fifth anniversary of the grant date (31 August 2016).

Page 30 of 47

Where the participant is a director or member of the senior management, share options of not less than 20% of the total share options granted to such participant can only be exercised after the participant has reached a pass grade or above in the performance appraisal for his/her employment (or office).

In addition, during the validity period of the share options, the maximum gain which the participants can obtain from the share option incentives shall not exceed 40% of their remuneration level (inclusive of the gain from the share option incentives) when the share options were granted. In the event that the gain from the share option incentive exceeds the above proportion, share options which have not been exercised will not be exercised.

(6) Determination method of exercise price

The exercise price of the grant is the higher of the following two prices: (i) the closing price of the A shares on the last trading day immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the summary of the Scheme (that is, 29 November 2010), which was RMB7.65 per share; and (ii) the average closing price of the A shares during the last 30 trading days immediately preceding the date of announcement of the summary of the Scheme, which was RMB7.37 per share. Therefore, the exercise price is RMB7.65 per share.

(7) Effect of the Company’s share option incentive scheme on the financial position for the Reporting Period

In accordance with the requirements of the First Share Option Incentive Scheme of Hisense Kelon Electrical Holdings Company Limited (Revised Draft), the Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of the share options granted under the Scheme. According to the calculation by such pricing model, the Company recognized an expense of RMB1.5015 million in total in relation to this share option incentive scheme.

PARTICULARS OF MATERIAL CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS OF THE COMPANY DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD

(I) On 6 December 2012, the Company entered into the Compressors Purchase Framework Agreement, the Compressors Purchase and Supply Framework Agreement, the Business Co-operation Framework Agreement, the Export Agency Framework Agreement, the Property Services Framework Agreement, Business Framework Agreement 1, Business Framework Agreement 2 and the Purchase Financing Agency Framework Agreement with Embraco, Huayi Compressor, Hisense Group, Hisense Electric, Beijing Snowflake Group, Hisense Marketing, Hisense Hitachi, Hisense–Whirlpool and Hisense Hong Kong respectively.

Embraco is held as to 30.82% by Beijing Snowflake Group, a substantial shareholder which holds 45% of the equity interests in Beijing Refrigerator (being a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) and therefore Embraco and Beijing Snowflake Group are connected persons of the Company according to the Hong Kong Listing Rules.

Huayi Compressor is a substantial shareholder holding 29.95% of Ronshen Plastic and 29.89% of Kelon Mould (both being non-wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company) and therefore Huayi Compressor is a connected person of the Company according to the Hong Kong Listing Rules.

Hisense Air-conditioning is a connected person of the Company by virtue of being a substantial shareholder of the Company, holding 45.22% of the issued shares of the Company and Hisense Hong Kong holds 3.99% of the issued shares of the Company. As Hisense Group indirectly owns 47.90% of Hisense Air-conditioning and Hisense Hong Kong and Hisense Electric is owned as to

Page 31 of 47

40.43% (then owned as to 41.25% as at the date of the agreement) by Hisense Group, Hisense Group, Hisense Electric and their respective subsidiaries (including without limitation Hisense Marketing and its subsidiaries) are connected persons of the Company according to the Hong Kong Listing Rules. As certain directors of the Company are also senior management of Hisense Hitachi and Hisense–Whirlpool, Hisense Hitachi and Hisense–Whirlpool are connected persons of the Company according to the Rules Governing the Listing of Stocks on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

As Hisense Group is the beneficial controller of both Hisense Hong Kong and the Company, Hisense Hong Kong is a connected person of the Company under the Rules Governing the Listing of Stocks on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Hisense Hong Kong is also a connected person of the Company pursuant to Chapter 14A of the Hong Kong Listing Rules. Since the financial assistance arrangement under the Purchase Financing Agency Framework Agreement would be for the benefit of the Company on normal commercial terms where no security over the assets of the Company was to be granted in respect of the financial assistance, such arrangement was exempt from the reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements pursuant to the Hong Kong Listing Rules. Details of the Purchase Financing Agency Framework Agreement can be found in the announcement published on the website of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (http://www.hkex.com.hk) on 6 December 2012.
